Andrea of Florence took his patron'name
as Verrocchio he later found fame
He loved fabrics & things in gold
his figures seem modelled& rather bold
The spider created the web and is part of it
After tenacious intricate measured manoeuvres
A system is created to house, protect and feed
Isolated from all yet a complete assembly of all
It originates the networks from its being
A substance stronger than all metals known
With no assistance nor educational exposure
Wisdom and knowledge is in Nature for free
Alone it builds and lives separated from all
Unmindful of the troubles of the life around it
Satisfied in the web modelled after the universe
Each strand performing functions beyond the eyes
Look but don't see! a new World is being made
its fabric is interwoven with a strength of inconsistency
It teaches in pre-schools that
Run from 9 am until 6 with
The children of other lost children who are
Called parents. 'Parents’. It’s a useful
Word!! in this useless world.
That has re-modelled and fetes the
Carnal old realities of blood
Lusting empires of Olympian
Depths.! Trans-ported to Roman orgies to be impressed upon its young captives as their elders run the gamut of ‘endless hours in a
A bean counters paradise.'
Dealing with the cobbled together mantra of consumer ideologies as false idols strut across energy
Wasting screens there are wars, wars on waste wars on want, on pollution, on many many things. These are the
Rumours! also there are real wars
There are earthquakes famines but the end is not yet! viruses in the computers
A virus on the flesh, upon the
Men, who have become lovers of themselves.

Fittingly hallowed gods must intrinsic majesty hold.
Even before deities invoked weigh the caller's case,
The deity's potent title should alone spell the balm,
And tint with nourishing grace the supplicant's face.
Woe justly betides gods modelled by mortal skill,
Conjured to define the worshiper's creative spans.
True deity outdoes their adherent's most avid drill,
And defeats most faithful admirers' keenest scans.
If while engaged they varied ethereal trends display,
But when left alone they silent and unbothered stay;
You already got there a freaking raw deal indeed:
You're the mighty guy your own-made gods need!
The worshiped must by heart the worshiper know,
And both will ever commune as if by infallible law.
It’s the supreme being mightily seeking the follower,
Who grasps it well and submits to the bigger power.
It’s a fake god if it bends to suit whimsical desire,
Or at once plays into your infinite imaginative fire!
Heard Big Bird
Some things about Trump we have heard;
When he talks seems to repeat same word;
Around will hobble,
And up food gobble;
His body has been modelled after Big Bird.
This is why Trump wants to defund Big Bird.
Big Bird always reminds him of himself.
Jim Horn
Dan's on the mezzanine
asking where the mayor lives
I'm on the dole line,
wondrin bout conservatives
The man with the leg cramps
boot camps wheel clamps
says they cut his food stamps.
Look out son,
he’s packin a gun:
God knows why
Pat Boone, full moon
someone's gonna die soon.
Del's on welfare,
Donald Trump is real pissed:
give 'em all health care?
What are we? Socialists?
Thinks I'm Harry Lime:
street crime, sub-prime,
now you're working part-time.
Look out boy,
you're only a goy:
don't revere teachers,
don't obey no preachers.
Jen's on Fox News
talkin bout the bank crash
wanna get some real views?
What about the trailer trash?
Read about Goldilocks
Botox bobbysocks
modelled by Amanda Knox.
Look out, Joe,
you're spoiling the show.
Don't watch features,
don't dance in the bleachers.
Get hired, get fired,
get rich, get stitched,
get tired, get wired,
get hitched, get ditched.
They got the cops at backstop,
Al Gore keeping score
'tween the Poors
and Dirt-Poors,
'tween the Haves
and Have-Mores.
John Wayne's vanished.
He's off to learn Spanish.
"Curly Sue" is pretty simple,
Romcom of nineteen ninty one.
Strangely recognized an impel
To rhyme her out to make her mine.
For those born in twenty something
Curly Sue does not ring a bell.
Said "You're curly Sue, sweet dumpling!"
To my niece. "Who's that?", she compeled.
As a child, when I was little.
Curly modelled as "super cute".
Decades past, she's just a tittle
In films ocean, that is brute.
Wonder why I still remember
Curly Sue? It's just silly, no?
For some reason have this ember
For Sue and want my niece to know.
A white dress full
of winter cherries;
hair curled with frost.
A carried box
tied with string
and legends.
Maybe a modelled
sister,or a ghost
from a playground.
You turn to
circumnavigate
in all this road
and wonder this is
as gone as a finger of snow
in April.
The sky is hasty
with a flock of clouds,
broody, hanging -
The next day empty,
just a shape without standing,
colder.
Cosmological
destinies being modelled
us, predetermined
.
In the life of a child, stood two men and one died.
Charles was the biological father.
Shorty was the step-dad.
Rich in love this girl was.
However, there was one similar.
Carrie was her mother.
In her mother’s life stood two men.
Both are dead.
The fear has form.
The girl’s mother is now gone.
The similarity brings terror of a self-fulfilling prophesy.
When the world becomes dark, scary moments evolve.
Shorty broke his neck.
Charles did as well.
Jim had a hard time getting along with others.
And, Carter never was in the picture.
My mom and I resembled.
The spirits really modelled in a wall.
Scary moments have evolved.
