Lingering thick fog
drapes rainy dawn
with its alabaster blanket;
bright rays of sun
yet shines through.

Mr Arney Alabaster,
liked to cheat at playing canaster.
He would crinkle up a card,
and hide it inside some lard.

Break this
alabaster flask of mine.
Exude
The spikenard of repentance
anoint HIM
who savors the fragrance.
Precious.

Whenever alabaster clouds
Above my head turn grey
And darkness engulfs sunny days,
Almighty God to you, I pray

Fabled
Mythical steed
Spreading alabaster wings
Flying at will among the stars
Dreams riding on his back
Pen a Pensee

Casual glances at ballroom dances
an eyebrow raised, a bare shoulder appraised
Mask passions profound 'neath waves of sound
on alabaster marble hunting grounds
Bethlehem... so bright...
shining star... December night
alabaster white...

she was a gorgeous vision
I still see her pinkish alabaster skin
Rubenesque plumped up coral lips
her olive dress drawing out her eyes
the prettiest corpse ever next week

velvet dusk holds still
ecstasy seeps from wet lips~
alabaster wounds
Linda never lived up to her husband’s fantasy
Sheba had porcelain skin of alabaster hues
Her ruby lips hid a brilliant mind
She passed at twenty-three
Leaving an open wound
Happy to see my friend, Penelope
'Neath alabaster wedding canopy
But the horrid-looking groom
Penelope's ruined ~ unless (!)

alabaster dawn
sends pearlescent warmth through night—
light threads open sky
her skin on fire
cold to the touch
golden locks of hair
tumble everywhere
smooth as silk
her alabaster shoulders
men's hearts leap ~
as love's embers smolder
NOBODY! could get Nuttin' past HER!
The Ad read: "Finest Alabaster!"
She proudly displayed it,
But time soon betrayed it...
Turned..."Green!"...They just shipped: "Finest Plaster!"
lay crumbled on floor
her face alabaster white
red lips as though they had bled
no life anymore
beautiful blue eyes shut tight
puppeteer had cut the thread.

Gleaming Capitol.
Alabaster stones shining bright.
Peoples history and hope.
Dark place of power.
Filled up with greed, lust and lies,
Destroyers of liberty.

alabaster moon
skips across midnight waters

If love etched on
gemmed, rose, alabaster
it will be full of
sonorous blissfulness
, like a dreamlike lily.

alabaster wind
branches bow in silent prayer—
snow clings like secrets
snow
stampede
suburban
ghosts of factories
shotguns checked shirts, red necks,
rust the vultures waiting for
memorial alabaster

Clarity Pyramid/Form
Mistletoe hung
o’er alabaster Angels
Wreathes of holly
Wrapped round a morose marble God
At times I’m charmed
By thoughts of Gods and Angels…
And yet at other times
I find religion rather odd
