Marauders Poems

marauders unite

marauders unite
pillage village captain said
next day two lay dead

not as much fun now
knees gone, they move very slow
old age full of woe

Marauders In the Night

Wolves wander warily 
Warring strength in moonlight
Watching warm skinned bodies
Weakened with chilling sight 
Waging teeth, mouths water
Wakening woeful fright
Mortal wounds with death’s bite

Fading Dreams

The day is dying
The half-moon is faltering
In its nocturnal crawl
Across the gloomy sky

As the sleepy village goes to bed
Under the inky dark African sky
Stragglers are home-bound with trepidation
From another day of disillusionment

 Lonely drunks lost in alcoholic world
 Stagger home on the sandy paths
 Boastful about feats known only to them
 As the alcohol ebbed

Magnificent Masquerading Marauders

Magnificent marauders masquerading magically might mean 
Messy mollusks masticate marbled marigolds momentarily. 
Maybe. 
Moreover, momentous mosquitoes might make marvelous mini-muffins mixing marmalade momentarily. 
Meanwhile 
Minnie made monthly memories merely medicating masses 
Mediocre men mysteriously manufactured man-made missals 
Might mean 
Millionaires mystify magical muggles’ meager melodies making 
Magnifying, mollifying mortifying mind-blowing majestic missives. 
Moreover, 
Mummies, mammograms,

Marauders On a Night Raid

(alternately titled ringleader Harris hooligan,
Hence, any resemblance 
     between characters port
rayed, and living persons 
     purely coincidental.)

Claim to fame creating
     an overnight sensational
     boom town explained
     by lodestone of zinc

Mystic Mist Marauders

Terra Firma, inundated
induced obscure, addled by haze
Sable vision looming clandestine
'neath voyeur's superficial gaze

Impending doom surrounds siren
companions come via the wing
Hideous caws make nary a sound
still, there's resonance, deafening

Symphonic dance and play abound
sweet airborne pirouettes macabre
Turbulent twists, convene with timber
silence shattered by shrieking sob

Ripped apart - devils satisfied
swiftly ebb on departing mist
Nonchalant to what's been discarded
visage

Marauders of the Breeze

I'm astride a white steed that runs through the trees                       
I am a leaf, a marauder of the breeze
