Premium Member My My Having Fun - a Satire

This is my  credo
massage my ego

Hey-the right to be me
with no  morality

Hey-live and let live
don't inhibit me

Hey-listen to me
just let me be

let  me feed my affectation
with contemporary confection

Bitten Bosom

The closest arm strikes;
It injures with desolation
Instead of solacing:
Broken consolation. 

The treasured lip bites;
It tears to desecration
Instead of kissing:
Shattered affection. 

The chosen heart burns;
It sears to extermination 
Instead of embracing:
Loveless affectation.

Diction Pictures

Things slip away.
  Obeying laws of
  cause and affectation,
  diction pictures words
    as sounds.

Hounds bay at lunatics.
  Sticks and bones
  fillet my stones.
    Millet and rye
    make me cry.

Ground beneath my feet,
  a swaying beat
    repeats
    repeats
    depletes me of my
      funky mood.

Shall we dance?

What Is Kindness 1

What is kindness

What is kindness?
Divine feeling of compassion?
What is kindness?
Willingness to help the helpless?
To the deprived, consolation?
Certain times, an affectation?
What is kindness?

Affectation

Half ink, half white space.
Your book choice,
reads books on your personality.
The pretence of intellect,
owning but never reading.
Observing knowledge but never shaking her hand.
The idiotic republic,
the 13th sonnet of indolence,
 Standing female stupid,
Not waving but drowning.
 If only,
it werent december,
and you were sinking,
huge and beautiful,
in a puddle of ink.

The Drizzle That Departed

As a meek and  mild drizzle you departed 
      Stood as  a geyser 
    My progress wasn't thwarted 
       Resilience was taught then 
  
"  Thy memories ceased "-an affectation 
       Every ripple ,concentric and intrinsic 
   Memories made memoirs they are cherished 
      Babblings oblivious to the organic 


Eclipsed and evoked ;poison and potion 
Are the same -this geyser still thrives

Goth

Somber grey,true dismay
Abstruse plight,day is night
Assailants might,no armistice
           Goth
Abatoirs full of disgorge
A world depraved,a blackish haze
Ignominous calamity
            Goth
Fathomless,the abyss
Callosity,the damned to be
Feinous atrocities
             Goth
Evil adulation,whole affectation
Amoral fixation,mind controlled nations
Robotic existence,lost in decadence
             Goth

Premium Member Weather Report

weather report

sun is lost again
air is drab,  too close,
perfect affectation to 
play across the landscape
of my muffled mind.

many days have begun 
and/or ended this way.
neighbours send up fire 
crackers to placate god 
break up the celestial portents.

explosion, fire, reveals
the bland face of cloud which
blocks our  visions. neither wizard 
nor rain maker needed. we 
end with a calamitous whimper.

Love,
where can
              love
              be found
as each day
the world spins
and chaos
              reigns
              supreme-
Desire
outflanks love
            and enchains
            consequence
            in culture's
clash-
               Beauty
                trashed
and trivilised
innocence
             so early lost
             beneath false 
masks
of love
             crushed
             into the

Through
the
          looking
               glass
I did
stare
            a surrreal
            scene
I do
declare
               this
                orwellian
wonderland
met                 
my eyes
                  hedonistic
                  affectation
here
and
                    there
                     everywhere
