Perishable
When the sunset of our life comes
And the earth swallows us all
Termites will consume the head
And maggots, the liver
The buttocks woman adorn with beads
Will become food for the mother earth
What value does a man have?
When tomorrow he will be no more
A sorcerer I would have honored
If only he

Perishable
Perishable
David J Walker
as words spoken of love
with heat but not taken to heart
while the cold of hate echoes
well into the night
let the dance continue until
exhaustion claims the pallor
from the cheeks of the last flight as
the dancers stumble and
the poet's mumble brilliant
verses that no one else

Perenially Perishable Poignancies
Man is endowed with the pangs of life,
Elixir the best thought to be is to invoke Supreme Soul,
Thy pryer is answered instantaneously,
To enliven Being by relieving him of perenially perishable poignancies !!

Perishable Man
The breath of life condemns the dying
The creeds and credos conceal the living!
The man who sinned must be executed by death?
Sins from the lawmakers
Abide! And you will interfere in the duty of a man
They call themselves the tyrants!
The trial says, GUILTY ! - without a sin
He, is now

Immortal soul cries,
Passion fails to turn me wise,
Time can't check my craze,
Memories form dense haze,
Perishable to pay price!

Perishable
Walk with calm grace
You pretty face
Live who you are
As saint or star
Your beauty shows
In sacred glow
Be a good tale
In win or fail
The path you light
Fits you most right
Let not the flesh
End in a trash
Go on your way
To sing and play
Be frail vessel
Mind life's hassles
Look deeper now
Then you'll know how
Live happy say
In wondrous ways
Beauty most

Perishable Summer's Scenery
~~~~~~~~~~ ^-^ ~~~~~~~~~~
Alluring nymphalid brandishing its ala
Cavorting trees as sultry monsoon gusts
Gleaming aureated daystar delineated in ripples
Enticing milieu under quixotic aestival moondusts.
Dehydrated rivers in a sudden, scrounging an incessant deluge
Red - charring enthusiastic sun fired like hell
Complicated seasonal change - puzzling...neurons evaporating
Tormented - dried terrain, vista...jiffy alteration - no well.

Perishable
Powerful gusts blow trees horizantal,
Bricks blown off houses,
Paint chipped off cars,
Recklass beauty,
Swirling winds of destruction,
Grabbing the heart of observers,
More prayers sent up than those on Sunday,
Cashmere shirt: $150
Furniture set: $1,950
Plasma TV: $800
YOUR LIFE: PRICELESS
