Premium Member Basque In Sex

When I traveled to the region of Basque,
I met a girl of whom sex I did ask
She said, “Yeah, sure mister,
If it includes my sister.”
So I told her, “Sure, I can multitask.”

No Frills For Santa

As Santa was wearing a mask,
he spilled all the wine from his flask -
he muttered and swore,
'This Covid's a bore...
I've ruined the lace on my basque.'

written 6th December for Carolyn's Santa's Covid contest

A Little Bit of This

I am a bunch of English
I am a bunch of Welsh
I am a bunch of German
I am some Irish and Scottish
I am some Mexican
I am some Spanish
I am a dose of French
What is Baltic and Basque anyways?
Yeah, a salt shake of that for good fortune
And a teeny a dent little bit of black
Thanks mom!

Faithful Stardust

Glimmers of light blanket my face
Drenching me with care. 
Showered lightly with stardust
My universe, my chair. 

Raising my hands to the sky
A simple prayer to ask. 
Let a golden rain bathe
Those who sit and basque. 

Free-falling particles
of love to make us feel.
Sorrow turning into joy
A blissful nightfall heal. 

Looking up to the night
Totally in awe.
Like waking up to the sun
The same kind of thaw.

Nagozu Aldean

hearts that drifted apart
now strangers with memories
past is past, gone and done
see how lives can be temporary

whispered promises long forgotten
embraces that turned cold
the timelessness suddenly ended
abandoned, nothing more to hold

barely able to remember
how it was, or how it could’ve been
this past of a future life
so it was thought, so it seemed.


***Nagozu Aldean is Basque for "I Stay Near You". It was from a book I read when I was 12 years of age. Never forgot the term.
