When sleep's afoot
roaming the hills
Will pillows deign pursuit...
Yet when dreams linger
waking's a beggar
knocking at your door

Dare I deign, or faintly feign
A focal point of interest?
Imbibe, implore- inquest for more
When you tell the world your business?
Why not try and leave a crumb
For Imagination's sake?
All the drivel leaves me numb
In Information's Wake...

A sommelier was known to whine
at pairings made with pork.
The shoulder was in fact divine,
so tender, lightly forked.
Yet she was deign to recommend
a cab or chardonnay.
Esteem I’d had came to an end
though, just the other day;
I saw her swilling Boone’s Farm wine,
complete with plastic cork.

Do you notice?
In every unreality,
People read minds.
Every lie is transparent,
They call every bluff,
"You're not okay," they insist.
As if you didn't know.
But if you deign to test
The real world,
of course
They are
Completely
Oblivious
Always
Stop reading my mind.
You make me second-guess.
Are you real?

It’s not all easy being favoured as a great gifted poet
All this deigning and stooping just to let people know it
They do deign but I just do so to see them pass
Tomorrow perhaps worse they want to kiss my ****
But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed toga keeps ruddy snagging the door

I dreamed I saw the grave of Ernest Dowson
Bleakly set
In some forgotten churchyard corner,
Lone and wet.
The spectral London fog descended cold on
Sentry grass
Where seldom any visitors or pilgrims
Deign to pass.
And in my reverie I bravely scattered
Roses there,
And felt a frail and wispy “Thank you”
Warm the air.

suddenly bare branches
sway and shiver
shiver and sway, outstretched
in vain
to December's flares
stunted grass shoots
deign not wave
to howling winds
their lawns daily prowl
icy slants of rain
piercing bare heads
autumn’s roses gone missing
color them dead

Even when I want to free myself
And turn to other ‘amants’
My heart still whispers
‘Oh, but I love her.’
And so I falter
And hurry back to you
And plead innocence
To a heartless goddess!
But now more than ever
I must turn my back on you
And conjure my selfish heart
To let go this silly fixation!
Would you deign to stop me?

There is a rare and special creature
lost in the mists of time
women search so far and wide
for a nice man divine
He hides away in a secret land
and ventures out now and then
if you are able to catch one
don't let him escape to his den
He treats you well and oh so kind
he's sweet and funny too
he'd never deign to hurt you
so treat him well and be true

Miss Muffet
Little Miss Muffet
Sat on her tuffet
After coming home from the pub
When up came a spider
And sat down beside her
So she smashed it to bits with a club
Now Caroline wouldn’t use
Wouldn’t deign to let loose
With a club - ‘cause she isn’t so thick
And it was not just a thump
No despatch with a bump
But sure death by a huge hockey stick!!!

And your smile do fully flower
Leaning down you deign me kiss
As all around my fragrance showers,
On and on this dance sustains
A life I thought would never end.
But then one windy day in fall
I find that I begin to bend
And getting lower to the earth
I see where time is going to lead
And so release into the wind
The quintessential gem...a seed.

We all have our days,
Our flaws,
And our ups.
We all have our names,
Our pains,
And our gains.
We all have our prayers,
Our delays,
And our says.
But,
Everyone prays
Against the negatives of days.
Because,
Everyone litter',
That sweet orange once bitter.
Let us pray,
That our pain
should be the link to our deign.
So that,
We can have
The adorable taste of life.

Such union tastes now like ambrosia sweet,
this oneness we share while our lives remain.
Now my love, speak anew for time is fleet,
repeat your promise, gladsome oath's refrain.
Ah Specter, deign not evil toward this twain,
but keep away Grim Reaper, shade of night.
Fortuna, may it be that we obtain
from basket, thy fruit ever lasting right:
thus hoping we remain esteemed in thy good sight.

In the darkest hour,
Of the coldest night
When the Heavens deign
To open wide
And e’en Angels
Take startled flight
From eerie sounds
And silvered light
The Cosmos converses
In Cosmic verses and is
Softly scriptured, the melodies
The stanzas…the bars
In the gelid Winter’s night…
And would’st one lend a careful ear,
Perhaps the Gods… would grant him hear
…The whispers of the stars…

Ode
Now and then,
It goes agin,
The grain within my bein',
How those "within",
Can judge the sin,
Of lives they think less meanin'.
Before ye deign,
To judge again,
Ye'd best make one thing certain;
Make sure ye know,
Afore the show,
It's not yerself yer hurtin'.
For all ye say,
Comes home one day,
And every word ye'll pay for.
Make sure ye know,
Afore the show,
That ye won't mind an encore.

Let Me Sleep
Let me now sleep
rest to dream
far away on virtual field
of realities twice plain and deep
Over hills of silken warm
let my worries deign to leave
covered down and seasoned bloom
where doth flow summer dawn
Let me now rest
to dream awhile
in a world untethered free
infinity and space refreshed
to lie satisfied for a moment
struggle there to remember why
dreams secrets hide so well
subliminal vague potent

COPLA SIETE : This Bad Guy World
Watch those who say they serve God most
They’ll boast their God stands for peace
And for Him – kill !
Watch those who clearly wish to boast
Theirs is the ONLY sacred lease
Yet show ill-will
To all those who likewise proclaim
ONE GOD – not their own – with disdain
Yet kill their own
And in killing their own, they maim
Their OWN GOD who will not even deign
To help His own !

~ 2024 ... 2025 ~
A time to take stock
to delve deep
One glance in the mirror
does not suffice
The old year wanes
the new one waxes
Time to bury axes
time to rack your brains
Where have I been
Where am I going
Am I shrinking; am I growing
Do I deign to sin...
A time to take stock
fast beats the clock
Pave the way this day
~ should you like a say

Among all cousins of mine in a lane
There is he very profound, and plain.
Strong though shows none in skein;
Always ready for hospitability in rain
Without thinking for self even if slain.
Had a son and a daughter – both reign
His kingdom and never wished to deign.
My Bhabhi is a great soul – decent again;
Never spoke a bad word – is a gem in pane.
All the family tries to help others in arraign.
Thanks to god for such sweet family to attain.

I took a walk on Yorkshire green
And met a snobbish English lord
He asked what right I had to been
In gentlemanly tones so bored
I smiled at unctuous nose so high
And said I had na' meant t' pry
But I'd been simply walking by
And stopped to sip a little rye
But if I'd hurt his simple pride
To please consider suicide
He left in such a royal huff
It must a been just quite enough
T'see a man wi' soul sa free
He'd deign t' e'en speak wi' thee

The Great Poet is most embarrassed using the word for a donkey for a fleshy nice shaped bottom for the sake of a silly rhyme !

Stephanus Macus Book 1
Canto 6
Verse 1
Then Katharine spent time with James in Throme,
to ride his horses, stroll the garden rows,
to view, appreciate large stately home.
Included seen with James, King Richard foes,
but Katharine now paid no mind to those
who schemed to see that James their monarch reign.
Not caring so, for she had mind on clothes,
and diamonds bright to grace her face and gain
crowd's approbation during stay, if James should deign.

ode to shadows
as i peer out the glassed portières
penumbral visitations mock me; dare they
deign to scare this parched crypt of
adrenaline and cortisol, usurped by unquiet
scourges over lifetimes' rebirth?
steps shifting in the dark, familiar and
beloved; the shushing and stirring, commit
to draw me near; umbral amici and i
provide a panoply o'bosky trappings f'thee
a joinin' we, or off to obscure pastures
to wee thee pants for eternity!

Ode
When nature decides to precipitate
As surely as the earth revolves around
the earth, it does not deign to hesitate,
Consider it done.
A truth I’ve sought and diligently found
Weather patterns arrive both soon and late
Nature’s ways are both consistent and sound.
If climate changes, still she will not wait
to control what moisture covers the ground
Freezing it persuades us to concentrate,
Consider it done.
