OZYMANDIAS- THE PHARAOH MADE IMMORTAL BY SHELLEY

Here is someone who is worthy of all the grace,
Let me describe his glory before his name gets erased,
The Pharaoh Ozymandias of Egypt,
Who was even worthy of Shelley's praise.

He has done a lot I feel,
Even though I cannot see his real reel,
I am sure he was praised well,
Even by the worthy poet for that- I

Liquid Sky Distortion

Lost in this Little, big world 
Of nightly sweats 
I see a road sign that diverts 
My attention to swerve 
Away and Wake up 
From the Reality around me ... 
I just need a break  
From it all, for awhile 
My eyes cross as I reach 
For the Blue something or other 
Ahaed of

Eagerness

“Great eagerness in the pursuit of wealth, pleasure, or honor, cannot exist without sin.”
Desiderius Erasmus

it’s flesh versus flesh in the pursuit of life,
great kingdoms have been built on rivers of blood,
history knows the fate of knife versus knife,
destiny has it’s own rules for bad and good!

Tiberius’ built wealth with sharpness of sword,
starved to death old

Let Haiti Be Absolutely Free

Let Haiti be absolutely free
Haiti is the father of Freedom and Liberty
Haiti is the first nation to forever ban or abolish slavery
And the slave trade in the western hemisphere
And in the world
The first to practice absolute equality
Among men and women on this sphere
And throughout the world
Stop meddling and interfering detrimentally with Haiti
Leave Haiti alone to

Green

stay your hand
with its obtund touch
take away your arid mouth,
your incurious eyes from me,
from my unscaled sight

you are but dull clay,
Ozymandias, barren
and I am fresh green
that strives for the light

spilling from your crumbling ashlar
jubilant, with scarlet buds
to catch the rain
and burgeon in its caress

to sway with the tumult of the wind
to kiss the voluptuous sky
to

A Sonate of Lust

I would dance on your tongue for 3 days in a row. 
until you were completely wet.
 pray for submission, pray for love,
 a love that burns, in the body,
 in the soul and between the legs. 
Burn where your juices are ready to flow. 
and you in fire, do not whisper, but moan, 
as

Full of pulverized
Oyster shells
Mixed with wood ash
And sawdust
And porklard

55 gallons of
Pulverized oyster
Shells.mixed

Intuition 111

111 known to represent intuition
Trusting yourself fully is the mission

Have you ever felt something about someone
everyone else was blinded by the gaslight
but some time passed 
and turns out - YOU WERE RIGHT 

How many times does that have to occur 
for you to finally accept 
that listening to self instead of everyone else
will keep you

Bed of Lies

Freedom startles me
Since fear is encircled behind your beds of lies
Acclaimed  messiah plays a game with you
Compelling you to be the pawn in your competition 

Every drop of his utterances counts
As my blood bubbles 
With no pale to be submerged into
Yet, I could bath with it.

No one is your saviour
They are just a pollution

Swimming Against the Current

[Note: You will see in the work below connections to other poems I have posted here.  Those poems are tangents to this poem that more completely tell the tale of rise, pride, hubris, fall, and reckoning. -- DT]

Wire me up!
Run that current through my head!
Suck the marrow from my bones!
I’m swimming with the mermaids

The Day of Recogning

The day of reckoning 

A bird with an enormous wingspan darkened the sky
it was a night of horror in the Middle East.
A new country born in sin and filched land arose
blood ran in ancient, narrow cobblestoned roads.
The people fled over a broken bridge, now live far
from the homeland, the dream of returning is alive.
Young men

The Song Contest

The song contests 

I came across an apple tree it looked like 
a child’s idea of this type of tree, big red
apples and a blue sky; when I realized I do not like
big red apples have farinaceous and taste 
like they were dreaming of becoming potatoes
and not picked at by bird.
I joined my wife she

Slipback

You must see Slipback, the popular new app!
It's a primary clock of tick-tock;
brief time-travel is what you can make.

Anything can necessarily be changed in and for
just a few seconds.
Certainly, lives may unravel,
living life as a movie with a second take.

"Misremembering" becomes a thing.
Challenging what was done is done.
Eliminating what we thought was a mistake.
Creating misery

Talking To a Skull

There I was, stranded in a hull
Talking to a skull
While trapped in the Maw 
of the deep

Cold Water at my knees
I started to plea,
"Why Sell my Soul to the Deep?"
While dead men say nothing

Cold Water at my thighs
Now i started speaking lies
"The doors creak shut, i tried,"
Empty black eyes gaze 

Salt in the mouth, i

Soliloquy

Sigh

Someone say
Something

Sate my starving
Synaptic surges

That slowly but
Hopefully won't
Succumb to so
Stated selfless
Self-proclaimed  
Salesmen and 
Women 
Selling

Subjective 
Sylabbic 
Alphabet 
And omega
Steamed
Stodgy
Soup
That 

I seemingly
Stir slightly
Swirling
With a
Spoon
While

Staring
Some
Where
Where
Babel has
Fallen into
Babble but
Silas sings
Off these 
Shackles

So sing
I while
Silent 
Stupid 
Sheeple
Graze on
This page

And no one 
Says anything
