and toppings of cheese

Sun spots glow on saucer eyes
thrown as green disks to the sea~

Fall gently, so gently on mirroring waves
of reflections I once thought were me....

ready for a walk
to be registered in the disks of man.

and after the slow walk blinded by

It was the disks that

barnum would have been proud
bulldogs in too twos
embraces for show
disks and dark booths
raw raws
scaffolding on saxophones
Scotland-yards of curtains
damp mermen
virginia     sweet william 
and dollar bills in
the greatest broken worth...

A flash of red,
and all there is- is green,
a monster ivy,
a terrible triumph over common sense,
colored papers and metal disks,
diehard addictions,
mental conflictions,
a soul thats battered and whisked,
and made into a cake:
bred for consumption....

Rolling musical staffs
Round disks on the blue sea
Rose petals of water
Romantic harmony
Refrains of this heart’s song
Rushing between raindrops
Rings for you my sweethearts

A dark blue ocean
always in motion
will sparkle in the sunlight
casting disks of gold
that each wave must hold
until lost on sands of white

foam flecked water churns
grabs sand as it turns
retreating back when it's done
once again to hold
those bright disks of gold
soon lost to a setting sun


For the contest "A Lovely Alouette"...

I reckon my prime sport is tiddlywinks

   Don't take much energy and little thinks

      I can sit and flip the disks

         Sans cracked skull and other risks

            That might occur while golfing on the links

Dots of light dotted the dome
Displaying dismal disks
Halfhearted innuendos of harmony
Repetitive, unremarkable recordings
Minimally interesting, middle class, mediocre
Small wonder he thought, smirking, smarting
Discipline dismissed, discarded
Replaced with fun, funk and fad
Foolishness fueled Fukem, he fumed
No more, no more, no more
The military, military school, immediately!...

He of the Flame withholds his blade
Liquid gold disks drip down from the tip
In total there was six
The earth was pregnant with a brand new soul
Two of the disks the mother stole 
And gave them to her new child as eyes
He carried them with him through each life
He shines radiant beneath the light
A beauty in the shadows 
Like a painting
Fades into the night
Forever known 
Solus...
