Drawn in the light of fine moonery
Some of us laugh
At her autograph
Til Grandma said “Brilliant Cartoon-ery!”...

He is a caricature of his Dad
A faker, imposter, jester, and cartoon
Some say he’s a scoundrel, some kind of cad.
His reputation depicts a buffoon....

While offering a sweet embrace
It is the bliss between light and dark

and wearing that midnight pear bracelet
made me shiver spotting teeth marks on her neck;

INTRODUCTION


My caricature is outlined
In the jar of vocabulary

On the edge of expression 
I tear into existence

Plying limits 
Self imposed

Exposing me
Composing me...

A Caricature

A caricature
Of what is an arrival,
Will be survival.

Results of my thinking
after watching movie,
"Survival." It is logically
and language oriented.

Characteristics of Caricature

Never were quite certain or ever sure,
What became Characteristics of Caricature;
Not any joking;
Very provoking;
While we had to endure the overture.

The silvery fog called to me
Come sit enjoy leisure
You've worked hard, its time for joy
Create poetry caricature

He was squat and fat funny man
Bald, round, loved cups of dram
He'd laugh and joke kid many folks
True feelings inside crammed ...

My Service


I gave it all, I gave it true with no caricature
Have I impressed a Pig to be a sea creature!

***Reminiscing on working for a hard employer who does not appreciate your 'sweat' till you retire; all old, poor, sick and unrecognised

Below here lie the remains of Mrs Shadow-Sun
Who used all her life searching for her husband
She married for just a minute. She died at this spot
The very moment her husband died in the West
When she realised that Mr. Twilight she mistook
For her hubby was nothing but a caricature....

The photo frame, hosts a picture
Of outer appearance
But we’re not mere caricature
Soul’s behind countenance 

Likewise, do thoughts define
Or do they bind, confine
Luminous, our heart shrine

Is claim to fame
The photo frame

employee stealing
became known to employer
so he told him with loving feeling
take a salary raise and correct behaviour 

we are unbound spirit not ego caricature
so called sin merely misalignment 
in time all souls do mature
imbibing love current

I exclaimed, "why you want to play the role of a feeble, destiny's caricature?"

He was silent by my words, I put my hands on his shoulder,
Hugged him, whispered: "In the game of Victor and Victim,
the looser is the marathon winner"...

Cute clever clown
Face fronting frown


Stream stealing smiles
Prompt plunder piles


Sad story stays
Live limpid lay


Preach petty poise
Niche naughty noise


Loud laughter lives
Gaudy ground gives


Rich rivers run
Pick pretty pun

Dylan got bitten
hard by fame
and though wounded
continues to tour

A thundering 
majesty
in makeup and veils
jesters by the score

Divorced from
his wandering
a pilgrim of dreams
the past too great a cost

A caricature
of genius gone
eyes clouded over
—Camelot lost
