Sal, Fish And Doug
oh
Sal saw sea
beyond the seesaw
but
did her fish suit swimming
in a flashy swimsuit
Doug, her dog
at the pantomime
groans a panting moan
then
Sal, fish and Doug
did a selfie on her phone

Pantomime
mute ‘triloquist
and talking mime
went on a date
for the first time
he threw her voice
under the bus
you should have watched
the way she cussed
she shut him down
with signs that hurt
when slipped his hand
beneath her shirt
but then he gave
her new white gloves
and pantomimed
undying love
now she’s his doll
he needs no strings
unloosed his tongue
and now he sings

The Pantomime of Love
How lowly do the heavens hang?
This great Earth begins at your feet.
The sound of church bells that just rang.
Falling in love when eyes first meet!
The pantomime of that one love.
A born aspect of your being.
Like the mating dance of the dove.
You're the mirror that love's seeing!

Story of a Fallen Star
Just Before Curtain Up
Oh Yes! My career!.. It's behind me.
And the bright lights I’d worked so hard for
Now they’ve airbrushed my face
That looks so out of place
On that poster they’ve stuck to my door.
My name is no longer top billing
It’s been pushed further down out of view
By some rich kid who blogs
From his channel of

Pantomime
The performance expresses meaning through gesture,
gentle stories and tales without words to venture.
White washed face and biggish eyes,
timing and theatrical endurance wise.
Pointing towards the human sensitive struggle,
how to keep the soul, mind and heart to juggle.
Like the fool of tarot card and number zero,
through owns life journey ever present hero.
Reflections from people driven by needs

Pantomime
long, to aspire
love drops from the sun
to live
or come undone
aimless ways of the sea
us butterflies,
effortlessly in the breeze
floating through days
and hidden in restless nights
attuned to the way
handwritten notes
a swallowed shrill, to dear
washed away from the fear
and we linger in the moments
as they pass
wandering the sounds of the past
we now the flowers
bowing our heads
in an unadorned

Fall Pantomime
fall
colored
tapestry
trees undress
one leaf at a time
east winds disperse the stress
dancing moves of a pantomime
seductively I must confess
stirs my muse already drawn to rhyme
while in the fall colored tapestry
a pageantry the trees undress
one leaf at a time

If I Could Be In a Pantomime
A long running pantomime was coming to an end of its successful showing. Once more one of the radio DJs asked if anyone had appeared in a pantomime. Then she asked if anyone wanted to appear in one, and if they did, what character would they like to be. The DJ had herself appeared in

My Own Pantomime
My wife and I had words but I never got to use mine
Her verbal diarrhea supersedes mine every time
An incessant stream
I wanted to scream
It was like starring in my own pantomime

Hotel Pantomime
Check into the Hotel Pantomime
Hospitality cloaked; words a crime
Dressed with gestures, emotions to prime
Tap your bellhop, then gleefully toss him a dime
Forthwith, the receptionist summon with a curt bell chime
After checking in, dance through the lobby in double-time
Flag down the elevator operator with a nod sublime
Furrowed brow, nervously fidgeting each floor climb
Then spring from the

Pantomime
Once again I ask myself to suffer,
sifting through so many words,
there's so much I want to say.
Perhaps afraid to stand before you,
naked to your judgment,
exposing every nerve and every weakness
in a pantomime.
I wouldn't know what to do
with my strength anyway.
The deafening silence is broken
by the annoying sound of pain
as it goes away.
You are the voice,
and
