Short Desperado Poems

a cocky young shooter called Bill
believed no one could rival his skill
alas it was liquor
that proved to be quicker
as they loaded him off to boot hill....

Some despair, a dash of desperado
a spot of Worcester rye

Seasoned with a tear
dried in  wind fried in  sun
scrambled in a flip of sky

Dressed in a lopsided smile
pressed inside the heart,

Set free

Making Poetry...

I’m
really
desperate
to please my heart
than anyone else;
I seem appear so near
but you are too blind to see 
what my eyes can not tell, so I 
now sleep in your illusive kisses-
for this pulsating mind o’ mine to rest....

Again another desperado 
showed his true color in Colorado. 
Could this be a macro effect of tobacco? 
Lord help U.S in the heart of Colorado 
Which has lost every art of a commando. 
This hit wasn't like a tornado 
But like an inferno 
A sincere bravado.  
Avocado will you grow again?...

If it was not….

If it was not by weapon,
My folks would have slain me with abhorrence.
If it was not inherently,
I would be their Desperado King for ever.
If I was not egoistic,
I would have been feasting with my broods,
If it was just,
I would have been a dud 
If it was not the distance,
I would have been alone....

Pink queen rush

Gotta Pac man
These money nuggets
I've got a crystal plan
This aint no desperado or scam
Thinking bout freedom in a bucket
I've got a crystal plan
Gonna trek the globe
Setting minds on fire
Independent desire
Energy recreating
Gonna meet my team and start building

But first
Gotta chomp these money tickets
Accumulate hit points
So I can take some licks 
And keep ponied up to the hitch...

exaggerated feelings
exaggerated thoughts
love songs inside my head
a mind that thinks too much
I thought I had a hold
on your desperado heart
silly me for thinking
your heart could be roped
why am I surprised
that you had to let go
I can't say that you
didn't always tell me so
I am not surprised
that you'd let me slip away
didn't you, didn't you always
tell me it would be this way...

Thy lips of espresso gold,
convey to me, 
your desperado untold.

Thine eyes for your own,
merriest of forbidden
pleasures, 
to hold.

Your supple smile upon
thine own,
reveal.

Amidst only
to conjure,
to conceal.

Parlay, if I may,
to implore
the keenest sense
of your fulfillment,
I adore.

Gently now, our merriment. . .
embarking upon salutation.
No more our desire,
of infatuation?...

I don’t want to forget you
Even though it’s ended
I still think we were meant to be
I hope we can mend it
My heart feels heavy
I have so much on my mind
So much to say
But you’ve left me behind
And it’s devastating
To know you’ve lost faith
You left without reason
Left me to wait
My minds trying to hate you
Then why is my heart being difficult?
~Call me pathetic… but I still hope you come home…~...

An aimless desperado
A cowboy dressed in black
Leaving a trail behind you
And never looking back

Spurred on by inner longing
A drive that keeps you strong
No ties that you can cling to
When the night is long

Unforgiving days of desert heat
No water to quench your thirst
Nothing that will hold you
Till you exercise that curse

Searching, never finding
And still the trail leads on
A duel between the heart and mind
A fight that won’t be won...

Once upon a time there were two jesters,
they didn’t survive but produced the storm;
Wildcats need to roam and will not reform 
adding their potency to disasters;

Crazy to caress a wild tornado 
try to level it to fall and lay flat;
As lethal as a swinging baseball bat 
running through the streets a desperado; 

Nothing felt better than a combined purr,
cluster bombs exploding with a climax;
Pranksters prowl along undiscovered tracks,
and the madness came tumbling after....
