angels snow blizzard
 piles of white Frost concessions 
snowfalls from heaven

A beauteous banshee named Moira
Prayed for an audience who’d adore her
She took some voice lessons
Made some costume concessions
And on Samhain’s eve sang an aria....

June, a month that brings the special flower
Urging urgent concessions to its power
Nurtured me against the bleak days prophecy
Eternal memories on petals of intimacy....

Throughout my heart's chatter
Love does not matter
For when it's not confirmed
Concessions will turn
Though contrite loneliness soon burns
A coupling that's so desire
To consume loves burning fire

Washing spinning suds
Watching. Thinking on spring things
Carnations in strict 
Formation and blue roses
Poses on balconies.

With BLINDING beauty 
All are blooming and smell of
Fruity confessions
With their beauty fragrant
Fruity concessions they are

Doing their duty making
Life a lovelier WORLD...

Today there won’t be a parade;
Concessions that Covid has made.
With no bagpipes or fifes
It’s befitting, since life’s
At a standstill from which we’ve not swayed.

Still, I’m wearing a bit o’ the green
Though, of course, if I had to come clean,
Being Irish I’m not
But I’ve never forgot
On St. Pat’s to become a colleen....

It sounds like junior high school,
The vote that will not end,
With people making speeches,
K. McCarthy to defend.

The government’s on hold
For no decisions can be made
Until a leader’s chosen,
But the pols are all afraid.

Concessions have been offered,
Some of this and some of that.
The easiest solution is – 
Elect a Democrat!...

Flaming heat of
lust
     surrounds the both
 of you
       Even while the
rain is falling outside
      the fires still glow within
If you want to continue
     You must make some
concessions
             Straight or gay
it matters little
     All that matters is
that two spirits have 
     touched
Does the mind control the 
body?
    Or is it vice-versa
I am betting on the latter
   Well, whomever you sleep 
with
    I wish you peace...

Can you see it through...
fog
smog 
mist

Can you smell it through...
fear 
odors 
stench

Can you hear it through...
noise
racket 
chatter

Can you taste it through...
spices
flavors
bland

Can you touch it through...
pain
sorrow 
concessions

If you’ve made it this far through 
the gauntlet known as life

Take a bow  for you are alive with the big five
sight, smell, hearing, taste and feel are for the surreal

This merciless invasion
A wolf in incubation
Deadly maturation
Mandatory isolation

Fear upon fear amplification
World-wide gargantuan
A new generation
Of lives in detention

Many made concessions
Amongst frustrations
Swilling in the stagnation
Of nature's destruction

Unmerciful predation
No retaliation
Where is salvation
On this train of extinction

Oh God help the nations
Escape this damnation
Save us from ruination
And give us resurrection...
