You too mother
Much worse than Brutus
Have you heard of Caesar?...

Wide-eyed, hopeless, there he staggers

In his back a dozen daggers

Dying, toga turning red

You too Brutus? Caesar said...

“I fear you’ve taken my Life …”

When you said: “Here … hold my knife”...

Masterpiece of shrewd persuasion
  Igniting sundry Romans' fierce desire
  To douse 'noble Brutus' life with fire...

Well, Brutus was that sort of chap
As whacked his old man in the Cap.
The senators there,
They’d stab or they’d stare,
With all other business a wrap.

Brilliant bright brazen Brazilian Brutus brokered brave
Broomsticks bragging beyond bellowing birch branches
Bypassing bitty bites brought on by bystanders....

Caesar, of course, could not dismiss,
"Greet one another with a kiss!"
But, "I've got your back!"
Proved Brutus' attack
Was the one that just could not miss!...

red wine 
cursed the marble floor
thus,
Brutus 
Judge of Rome

who 
kisses the face of Jesus
once more
the

for 
thirty shekels of gold...

trust isn't a must
left me in the dust
Judas and Brutus
caused less of fuss
a dagger from with in
is worse than any sin
love has many faces
and a few disgraces...

Rome, Rome in the range
      Where Caesar and Brutus were slain

    Where whispers were heard
      Conspiratorial words
    
    And the nights were so bloody
      ~ All day...

Who plotted against the
Throne of Caesar
Do we know of this man
He is a Roman Senator
His name is Brutus
The die is cast
Wine goblets whisper 
Beneath these jealous hands
What price to pay
When innocent blood
Service this guilty dagger...

The surge of violence is
seen and read in everyday headlines:
riots and religion's wars
are signs of future chaos! 
Corruption in Governments
induces a mortal thought:
Brutus and his accomplices 
are ready to stab Caesar in the chest:
is blood a way to avenge injustices?

‘The fault, dear Brutus, lies not within the stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings.’
(Julius Caesar, Act 1, Scene 2)


Drat, all the time
I spent reading horoscopes~
I can’t blame my problems on:
Leo, Virgo, Capricorn, Sagittarius,
Cancer, Gemini, Aries, Taurus, Libra,
Aquarius, Pisces and Scorpio.

Here it has been my fault
all along!

She, Queen of Egypt, he, Ceasar of Rome,
Together, their lands united a sea,
Their fusion less capitol, more a home,
A son born to them, though rule, not to be,
Yet, her debut in Rome breathed an epic,
Whilst there, Brutus and his clan, did tragic,
End murdered, Gaius Julius Caesar,
Self-death, Cleopatra Philopator.

the older lady asked for help
she requested a gurney for her dog
two veterinary assistants went out
with a gurney

this dog must have weighed three hundred pounds
his body and head were enormous
he was strapped down in five places
wearing a muzzle

I was thinking, “Brutus, Goliath, or Samson”.
What is his name? The receptionist asked the older lady.
“Flower,” she replied....

The decisive die is cast
No rule is hard and fast
The Rubicon crossed and more
The Senate and other arms in tow

The Queen bee not to be rocked
Drones in hives,locked
The Emperor not at all shocked
As food reserves, de-stocked

The last Act and scene unfold
The conspirators, the Emperor scold
Daggers drawn; they await their fill 
He gasps "and you, Brutus?" as they seal the kill...

Pushed by troubled waters
on the periphery;dream
interrupted, you start
coloring your nails differently.

A white moon was not that
white any more. You grow
overnight gray, becoming
older by decades.

Gravel was going for a coup.
Stones had upturned
the river.
Brutus, were you impeccable ?

I don’t want to travel
back to dark memories,
of a raccoon drowning
a little poor thing.
