The chimes reveling above,
flush with high-spirits, considering
The dolorous toll of the bells
below, met with knowing glances

Once dolorous by
the might of
disaster's lick
and hope flick
the luminous Cross
and it was... ‘Red’
RedCross,
flame eternal wick

Dilly O daffodil!
Day is sunny and bright.
Driven by zephyr winds.
Delight of fairy wings.
Dolorous on the dirt.
Dainty one lies below.
Drizzling on cherub cheeks.

There's a fairy in my chest
Live's with two crooked knives
In a barbed wire nest.
She loves to play and hide
In the dense and dolorous vines.
And I can get no rest.
As she tortures me at all times.

This dolorous day, my Lord,
You won't be marching alone, onto
Your crucifixion
For
The entirety of the Christian world,
Is marching on with You because of
Its conviction.

I have never seen a living thing
That looked so very dead--
Lacking elegance and color,
Seeming dolorous, instead.
And its limbs were much distorted,
Like an old, arthritic hand,
As it leaned there, hunched and crooked,
As if it hurt to stand.
But while it had the look of death
It bestowed the coolest shade,
Leaving me to wonder why...
This God so oddly made?

Liquor some strange
in cups so Pristine
I melted in sips
Memories don't fade
and everything seems bland
What pierces the soul
Swallowed me as a whole
Distance beyond miles
and some corner in the heart enervates
Emerged from shadows
and swayed by winds
Speaking in sharp tone
and looking so contrite
I wince at pain
and played the same dolorous melody

I thought I was never
A neophyte in lovemaking
Surely my bedroom prowess
Was a gift of providence
Gone were my floundering, lecherous
Smoldering inhibitions
Sadly my dolorous bombastic
Evaluation of my carnal skills
Was greatly overrated
Unfortunately I came
To this conclusion
Much too quickly

A saddening song swishes subtly in the bitter breeze,
Mad mournful music meets me everywhere I move,
Like a dolorous dirge drumming through the dark;
Wistful winds wearily bring to mind stinging salt drops,
All energy expended in trying to make sense of this forlorn fusion
As a painfully pensive psalm is penned down
in the ragged remnants of war...

Verse
A dolorous mournful miasmic hue,
colors all of my closing days blue,
sweetness of days gone,
that can't be retrieved,
has me missing those souls
whose death left me aggrieved,
life should be lived with the relish of youth,
before old age comes and
confirms cold deaths harsh truth,
mark clear the note that philosophers chime,
get busy with life while you still have the time.

Couplet
A lecherous neophyte he preyed
upon their folded hands and closed eyes
bathed in their dolorous mumblings
sated himself on their penitential inhibition
Left them to flounder hopelessly - adrift
drowning in his vitriolic bombast
a hard burning scent of incense
left to smolder in their souls
for Providence had delivered them - to him
