Lottery

Ever since my lobotomy 
I buy tickets in the lottery, 
and the day that I win   
I'll be invitin' in 
everyone in my coterie.

Be awed by flaws

Body flaws twinkle
in mirrored iridescence.
A radiant macula
bestowed by angels
to chasten the achromatic
who sculpt and chisel 
a painted coterie
of obscene perfection
for high born masquerades
vaunting pristine vision.

Premium Member Holiday Lovers and Well-Heeled Brothelers

The carefree menagerie
          a very merry coterie
        of holiday lovers, and
          well-heeled brothelers
        they rarely miss a chance
               to freeload for free

        Not stranded at borders
        shell-shocked from orders
            ~ no pretense of royalty

Premium Member Love Whispers

old and
           new
a coterie of
   the timid and frail
a paridigm
      of the 
             past-
    uncnanging
    fading
    in memory
    of the
           beloved-
between-nous
voiced
from
     morning-sleep
white waves
of nostalgia
linger
        upon
the morning breath
of
loves adventures

Waiting For Doc

hospital's antiseptic ambiance,
   temple of impeccable hygiene,
      the oracle, the doctor, still not in;

the wallclock  looks bored, tired of ticking,
   drags time at an arthritic pace,
      anemic hands round its palsied face;

white coterie thrums down the hallway,
   doc's rounds complete, all waiting in place
      for his diagnostic curse or grace.

Waiting For Good Doc

hospital, with its antiseptic ambiance,
our top temple of impeccable hygiene,
its priest-oracle, the doctor, 
not yet in.


weary wallclock looks bored, tired of ticking,
pulls and drags time at an arthritic pace
with anemic hands around its 
palsied face.


at last, white coterie thrums down the hallway,
doc's rounds complete, everyone must wait in place
for his crucial diagnostic curse 
or praise!

Waltz

Coterie Waltz dancers
step on step off an back 
flatter to twist in circles
blend each hand on a rack
shoulder's supple a rhyme
show light th' eyes capture
a world of wonder an lime
slides th' dance an nurture
tending speed an laughter
tripled spins chandeliers crystals
adios e're say to d'er flawless scheme
no doubt faultless in thou dream
how i wish to build my own theme
an dance just as you just gleamed
art

Spoiled

SPOILED

They have given her all her wishes,
All  her wants catered to by the doting parents
Aided and abetted by the doting grandma
And a coterie of accomplices from the  brigade of  aunts.
No need to wait for for  xmas or birthday for that special dress,
No need to  build up the excitement of a trip to the circus,
No need to dream : 
They have spoiled her youth.
They have  in fact already stolen all her dreams.

Fairy Magic

a pixie dust allusion on fairy wing profusion a cranberry wreath on a child of bequeath a touch of grace on a deer soft as lace a lantern slow beam on a forest gleam in a world of gilded fantasy, we are poetry in a world of innocent dreams their coterie in a fairy world of love we are impearled in a moment of creative enfold we're gold an incandescent light at the end of a forest one touch of mercy and suddenly we're blest.

Premium Member Mind The Stairs

Sprightly walk on landing,
then I step down each rung,
with habitual due dispatch,
an enthusiastic heart beats,
mind awash with apt fervour,
whilst fixating on elation,
that weaves rose bud tints,
to dawn townscape purliue,
on a fair earthborn agenda,
whose brief a germ kernel,
mission sprouting benign,
seeds among the coterie, 
red sunrise street dwellers,
who sense crimson aura,
a fond radiant saunterer,
that tonic  touchstone,
oops .. watch the last step
