Archways
of acers,
tunnels of oak
in cathedrals of beech
arbors...

revealing nature's archways

ominous cosmos...

Sandstone frames make 
Glittery dreams from heaven

Strong Foundation 
Limerick
Tom
7/8/2018

There once was a man, who built a new home,
It had beautiful archways and a golden dome.
The foundation was on sand,
Meaning it wouldn’t stand, 
Instead of wood he should have used Styrofoam?

Nights infusion
bleary eyed rivals
in Soho tweed
Pharaohs joke was here
Denim clad oxymorons
with spotlight eyes
Archways lean close
as sticks befuddle
their spark of epiphany
A jewelled silence
captures the gangsters in silhouette
Freaks five a penny
prolapse the night...

I've got these two friends
I'll describe as my bookends
holding up the library,and
the pages in my head

Like rainbowed archways
such colorful personalities
our day to day exchanges
engage to inspire me

Two pots of gold
how fortunate am I
to have and to hold
such friends in my eye

Even at a distance
their presence is felt
without further hesitance
your warm friendships,I melt........

Ask the listless and forlorn
Where are you going?

They seek redemption
And crawl to find it

On their bellies passing through
The three shores of hell they cross

Horrors and aberrance they see
Struggling for salvation 

Pass through the archways of gods
They are hollow

Search the lettered wisdom of man
The book of lies indeed

Pity and scorn, 
We kill our saviors

But redemption we seek...

Iniquities vertical archways 
Traversing twilights retro
Drafted abysmal shadows
Aneath the roses bush...
Coloured acrylic murals 
Acidics transcending 
Medievils vague ambulant 
Abstract mystique ?
Embellished cerium 
Charcoals as that of gothics 
In vitro; masque'd
Achromatic architectural 
Envisioned designs...
Gomorrah's holistic 
Gargoyles; a black plagues 
Overture amid, Nefarious
Nepenthes, garden of her eden....

An outcast, stripped and beaten
up, the sickle moon
smears the clouds with blood.

I hate to wait for –
the sun to undo this mess,
an ethnic mutilation will bring a chaos.

Nursing the peripheries,
tribes were in pursuit of bayonets;
will not surrender the arms

to mate.Unceasingly they are
digging up an abysmal grave
to throw in the truths in uniform-

in pursuit of feathers, offering
for temple archways, turning
on the future, for past glory !

Surrounded by gold Lustre
Old Clock chiming
extinguished the last vestiges
of the day
streets laying bleeding
the venom pliable
The last revillers
dressed in tweed
their  wanna be yesterdays
slide in between


Dance Hall
the harlequins of the night
scratch ones gilded fears

Paint peeling
lonely Moths
lost archways


Gargoyles point singular finger
Rhinestone cowboys
worship the jaws of the night
Laughing  girls sing lonely tunes
Its 4 O'clock
welcome grey dawn
