Your Best Shot

You called me names I don't recall,
I slapped your face for the barefaced cheek.
You pinned and pressed me to the wall,
For violence, damsel's knees go weak.

belligerent beef-willed Barney backpedaled
barefaced backchat banter bubbling bawdy battlecry
beached beacon bearing bearish
beclouded befuddled bemouth beliefs.

Barefaced boldfaced
Debased facestraight
Bowl shaped misplaced

she loses a lot, my ex-friend Dot
a barefaced poker player
but stop she cannot

she has lost her house
she has lost her mind
she has lost her family,

Going Home

GOING   HOME


The light has journeyed it seems
Instantly  to  earth’s vast looking-glass
Of oceans with  their currents as they pass.
It has bent back towards the Sun
And started on its homeward run,
Streaming home on beams

NOTE

The last line is stolen barefaced from Deb’s wonderful work. It just drew 
me to it and I wanted so much  to use it.  If plagiarism is to be
pursued in the courts,  bring it on !

00:32 - Confess All

The secret subject of my desires,
Is found in an ancient BT van.
We're nothing more than barefaced liars,
Illegal liquors from a legal man.

Two silver stalkers of the land,
Consumed you from our luxury.
And gave more than a helping hand,
To fan the flames of jealousy.

You play on thicker strings than I,
In bigger towns away from here.
In the candied scream of a mad wolf's cry,
I resign myself to silent fear.

The Promoted Versus the Demoted

Underrated Basil got a promotion
And it caused a commotion
Among luckless names for demotion
All of them restive and voicing the notion
Of An Elevation fathered by emotion…
They shall for the two wrongs raise a motion
Before the cause of their commotion:
A man you could enrapture with perfumed lotion,
That Bribery be distanced from Promotion
And Barefaced Trickery from Demotion.

Also, wages that should all please 
And not a single soul displease.

When I'M Still - Embed Free Verse

when 
 I still myself
   and just be...
    an overwhelming
        sadness swells
         seemingly from
           an endless cistern of grief
             It wells and billows
               I accept it
                  not fully understanding 
                    but knowing this sorrow
                         must have a voice
                             be heard
                                embraced
                                  I am "barefaced"

To the Non-Helmeted Cyclist

Your helmet on holiday
While on a highway
Will make Accident Demons busier
And a lot to the Devil easier,
Either party to fracture your skull
For man’s most feared call.

Blame-worthy of you confronting a bike’s gear
Without donning its defensive head gear,
Suicidal, your cycling round the urban
While choosing to not turban!

Helmet dangling on a bike’s handle
Makes same its unlawful wearer:
Some silly, unlawful death nearer…
A barefaced lighting of the Wrong Candle!
