May I Ask You

Why should I make love new
And toil over its expression
When just a glance from you 
Boasts not a syllable 
But speaks perfection?

Kentucky Mammoth Cave

Kentucky boasts about her Mammoth Cave
People exploring it are quite brave
Four hundred miles
Giving them trials
Exploring her passages is a fave.

Reliable Truck

Mercedes greets Fridays with glee—
With girlfriends she drinks up a spree.
Boasts a dude in one bar,
“Though her name’s a fine car,
She’s merely a pickup to me.”

The leech boasts he ends many wars
With each speech Trump’s truce total soars
His confused amount
And White House account
Are summed-up trysts with Epstein's whores

Iron Strong

Though the faith 
he boasts about seems
unbreakable like iron,
it's iron cold, iron dead,

rusting away, 
corroded by bigotry 
and conceit, bloating 
his self-righteous head!

My friend always boasts. And readers:- Pardon me,
 Because all people puzzled asking him:-

The Person

The person who calls, calls to the person who hears.
The person who asks, asks the person who listens.
The person who confides, confides in the person to trust.
But the person who boasts, boasts to anyone.

Return Of The Bold

Trump on stage, he strides with flair
American flags behind standing in air
With arms outstretched, he takes his cue
“Here I am,” he boasts with care
To a crowd of supporting patriots anew

Parade of Ghosts

Leaping to the mind,
The hatred kills the sane,
Leaping back on their soapbox,
Spoke of the devil's bane.
Hooded wolfs bleed to the ranks of angels,
They speak and boasts,
Marching through the dead of night,
Are the parade of ghosts.

April 8th

Thoughts of yesterday...

Light blue of sky boasts 
solitary clouds as bright 
as the sun, bursting 

with immaculate 
hues. They brush the noon's heaven;
hover over peaks.

The gossamer clouds
are wedding-white egrets-
elegant, at peace.

Glacier

GLACIER

Silent  boasts 
The mass of coldness.
Its grim whiteness
In slow-motion anger
Tears and gouges the land
Into trenches and holes.
Its deep claw marks
Show a cold-hearted deliberate
Desecration of the land.
The massive coldness
Of a salient beast.

Subtle Airs

whispering of winds
sibilant, susurrations
inspiring insights

braggart's boring boasts
haughty, howlingly hollow
a wisp and a whiff

tintinnabulum
continuously caressed
potent priapic

wet and wheezy whine
old nick now is not so nice
whispering wraiths wait

Berry Pomeroy Castle

Two brothers leapt off from the walls,
The castle under siege one night;
An evil place, it boasts two ghosts,
The ladies dressed in blue and white:
A sister slowly starved to death,
Her pretty looks her only crime;
Abusive father killed his girl,
And then her children, too, in time.

False Liberal

the false liberal
a profiteer
takes advantage of good and vice
wants to profit from our sacrifice...
  Does not  llove life sucks it up,
does not  love humanity
explores it...
Is a pariah,
a parasite
between usury and theft
he exits,
to usurps and boasts
with the fruit of sin...!

Rose Meadow

Rose Meadow, an outcast woman,
	portrayed by Fertie Fields.
The film chronicles her Pagan beliefs.
A supporting cast boasts
	Roland (Rollie) Hills and Hayden Hayfield.
	Cameos by Misty Marsh and Lily Lake.
Marquee brags of Nature’s spiritual mysteries
	comprising the life of Rose Meadow.

Pteracarolyndactyl

An ancient bird, I soar above the sea
As a giant squid’s arms reach out for me
     He boasts, “I am the Kraken”
     But something he’s a-lackin’
One brush of my wings; he's pre-history


make the most
of what you have…
     my philosophy

The Haunted House

As thunder boomed and lightning flashed,
The rotting mansion seemed to speak;
The trembling pair, their eyes immense,
Began to shake with each new creak.

Decrepit timbers groaning then,
The pair agog, despite their boasts,
‘We have to stay and see it through.’
They couldn’t leave: they were its ghosts!

Umbrella Shall Save Ya

Loudly he boasts 
        that he's got the strongest faith
           as ecstatically he exclaims,
              "Your  faith shall save ya!"

             He prays that it won't rain, 
                believing that it won't,
   as he stands there, using as a cane, 
                   a furled umbrella!
