Canadian Willie Amos
Was so eager to be famous
To prove he's no prude
He zoomed in the nude
And peed to confound the shamus

concepts confound
we have none
insisting on touch
to acknowledge reality
as we get to
definitive knowing
questions cease

Orange pumpkin man
Holding a broom for a witch
He bows to her strength
Beyond his control, her spells
Which confound his large carved face

Complimentary conundrums creating
Criminal cranial collapses compiling
Complete catastrophic complications.

Beyond comparison,
they rise when we fall
Uniquely divergent,
to impale and enthrall
No reference or genre,
descriptions confound

We do things we love
Do things we hate --
One, for affection:
and the other, for fiend
necessity, like~ executions
and wars…
Maybe better, not to confound
the two – maybe better, more
and less we do?!

I pray tonight
the starry light
might
surround you.
I pray
each day
that, come what may,
no dark thing confound you.
I pray ere tomorrow
an end to your sorrow.
May angels’ white chorales
sing, and astound you.

Rondelet
Stuck in a hole
Ear-drums bursting from crumpled sound
Stuck in a hole
Secret wire-tapping sin soul
Loss of sleep is thunder unbound
Death is a noise heart-beats confound
Stuck in a hole

Can you see that it’s true,
but not prove what you know
A problem physicists
and philosophers share
Hints all around,
results to confound
As the questions unanswered

I know the thought of my heart
It is wrapped up by you
My day is made when I hear your voice
My strength is renewed by your warmth
I don’t have any doubt about you
Your ways will not confound me
Because you are all I ever desire

I do not know?
I watch her undress
Malevolence unbound
I want to caress
Morals confound
I watch her provoke
sinful depositions
I want to invoke
Lust's convictions
I sit and I stare
reluctantly still
My love, I shall dare
And beauty shall kill

Nothing seems right with you,
Nothing seems right without you,
You confound me,
I am lost in your innocence,
Broken by your silence,
Smothered by your presence,
Forever at war with who you are,
And with with who I want you to be.

Peaceful clouds floating by, in my
visions they do keep.
Melodic tones softly chime, wind
resting near my feet.
Eerie words confound my brain yet
undoubtedly relax my soul.
Nesting near the blue waters edge,
sun sets on truths untold.

I've searched high and low all over the house,
For my cotton pickin' computer mouse.
I ain't found it,
Now confound it!
I suspect my smug cat devoured the mouse!

Limerick
Romantic writing intrigues me
Calls to my soul
Delights me
Romantic imagery awakens my dead feelings
Reminding me of who I am when I am my best self
Romantic metaphors confound me and confuse me
Inspiring me to try and become a better poet

I am hoping, with my emergence.
That they will take pictures with urgence.
Because I’ve been lost and I’ve been bound.
When I was in prison, I felt confound.
But with each step, I am learning.
That no one found my disappearance concerning.

Does it shimmer with confusion?
Quake with conclusion
Sulfate with the meanings residue
confound and astound you?
Does it rake and equivocate
Does it boil down and resonate
Does it shake your foundation and destroy your
condemnation?
If so your getting it right

Feelings fill the page
but can confound the sage
by the poem's mouthful
True, Good, Beautiful
transcending to the thoughtful
I find these engage

In his science
he wrestled
With my verse
just the same
As his numbers
refigured
The words
I renamed
Two roads
to one place
Distant windows
one light
Time still to
confound
Albert’s shadow
so bright

It's always her
Every time all the time
All the way
Throughout the line
It's always her
On the damn dime
All around she'll be found
In the rhyme
Love her kind
Like compound
Type confound
Expound resound
She is love
She is sunshine
So fine with wine
Cool rhyme
I resign

Bravery and fear
not either or
But versions of…
Valor and shame
brought heretofore
Mixed pieces of…
A riddle to confound
the poet’s mum
As glory weds disdain…
Courage and fear
not zero-sum
But oft times look the same

I solve crimes daily
From a brown Lazy-Girl-Recliner
Upstaging seasoned professionals
Solving cases that confuse and confound assigned detectives.
My husband is in awe,
singing my praises,
expressing his admiration for my abilities.
Not realizing how many times I have seen each episode.
