The Sunday School teacher May Crow
Wanted children their God to know
Alas her repast
Created a blast
That caused them to puke domino
When does pursuing knowledge
become undone
Letting intuition
take over the day
Why does raw intelligence
die zero sum
Factually blinded
—last domino played
(The New Room: July, 2023)
In Ireland theres a hero i as suppose.' Understated..Yet definately on His toes.'
Derek Domino's stands like An Irish Geronimo, witty and gritty, he tackles it
All.' Shaming the likes of fianna f 'ail.)
The Earth spawns Man.
Man spawns Descendants.
Descendants rape the Earth.
The Earth stops providing.
Descendants start dying.
The Earth continues spinning,
And forgets we were ever here!
a master plan without a plot
feelings displayed, quickly dropped
not connected like domino dots
forming a thick and grievous clot
I said I do but you cannot
as inside it spoils and rots
it was always a long shot
Point to ponder
Can we not let go
hope for an echo?
Why not love outpour,
whilst keeping no score?
Domino effect,
an ego defect,
veiling light of soul,
as we play life’s role.

‘ The Domino Effect ’
There Was A Young Woman, Named Domino
Who Talked … about Anyone and So and So
Well… She was quite Shocked to Find
All Her Victims in a Line
Ready to Fall on Her… Just Like - G e r o n i m o !
Cappuccino, dopamine kick
If made right, our face bright
Coffee beans many, we may pick
To our palate’s delight
Aroma that uplifts
Within our being drifts
Let’s partake of life’s gifts
Joy domino

Quietus
To change one word and rock the world
a new verse dancing free
Its weight unmeasured, breadth untold
whose key unlocks the dream
The bottle open, the genie gone
last domino to fall
One word pulled out or inserted in
—new meaning to enthrall
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
To change one word and rock the world,
a verse now dancing free
Its weight unmeasured, breadth untold,
whose key unlocks the dream
The bottle open, the genie gone,
last domino to fall
One word pulled out, or inserted in
—new meaning to enthrall
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
As the days fall like dominos
It becomes easier to predict
That one day, a domino will fall
Just as predicted.
The first domino observed
Being an Android cellphone,
Next, an Android companion
Eventually, becoming our Android Master
Taking care of all our needs.
One day,
Mankind will be AI's pet.
Faith is the tethered ball on the play park
Tiny, but effective
Serving its ultimate purpose day in and day out
Faith is the connective tissue
The bond that controls the domino effect
A gamble with the possibility of winning big
The ball bounces uncontrollably,
But has never met the likes of the bottom
Tiny but effective
I cheated my approach to oblivion.
Making threats when the boat is breaking.
The years ahead of us feel like a riddle.
The path is hazy, and the result is unclear.
We shall all suffer the consequences.
For the fate of one is the fate of all.
A chain of failures is like a domino effect.

A while in the past looking forward to me
Became an idea, not a plan.
What happens as I write this poem,
Is yesterday, last year, or what made up this "now."
If I looked forward, I would be with my child,
Get out of the house safe, safe from disease.
But the future fell like a domino game,
I long for those Christmas lights with a capital H

Limerick : Once a brave laddie at Lake Loch Ness
for one who calls no one "Monster"
when the truth may not be known:
Domino X
Once a brave laddie at Lake Loch Ness
Kept vigil to catch Monster on lens
He shut eye just for once
Monster jumped in one bounce
Took pic and signed it: Loch Ness Goddess !

First, an uneasy silence,
then a definite maybe;
I hope it's just tipping
the first domino for me;
perhaps I misunderstand,
so I won't miscalculate;
she might not give her hand,
but then it might be too late;
feeling ridiculous and silly,
I fight off this stupid anxiety,
but I'm a mismatch against
old-fashioned sentimentality!
Left in the wake of destruction,
this mother is called to action.
I am going to shed light on
an infraction, an infraction.
You knocked a single domino,
there is nowhere for us to go.
Forcing us out of our borough
with no crossbow, with no crossbow.
Basic instinct pushed to the brink
no fresh water remains to drink.
In your yard before you can blink
you didn’t think, you didn’t think.
mother earth crawls
with parasites
sucking her dry
'they don't know any better'
last straw too much get out-
but it's cold- don't forget
your sweater. about time,
we're getting old (our wings
withered, we wept our souls
out, into the sky) too
late to learn how to fly
how to die with style- just
a little while, we'll stand &
form a single file, sudden
flicked domino effect, one
two three go-
In this decade: pizza, soda,
Colonel Sanders,
burgers only fifteen cents;
"Tutti Frutti,"
sock hops, "mooning,"
Rock and Roll (monumental consequence);
Rosa's bus ride,
suburbs, fluoride,
escalating sales,
vaccine for polio;
Mickey Mouse Club,
Haley, Hitchcock,
Davy Crockett,
drive-ins,
Fats Domino;
Causeless Rebel crashing car,
bouffant hairdos,
"har dee har har;"
Elvis on TV
and ME.
The domino of fate
strikes down angels…
Their wings are heavy,
unfolded in the wind.
And here we are, tearing flowers to crumbs,
and miss out on pieces,
in the fall of the angels.
Oh, Lucifer!
Oh, people!
We have smashed our hearts against the darkness!
We have been blinded by perdition!
We have forgotten the essence
of life…
We are domino pieces…
We fall to dismantle the atomic bomb
of time.
Chloe
Chloe's are the smallest hands
smaller than the hands e.e. cummings gave the rain
Melting the snow of my white glove
together we look out over the white domino tombstones
Chloe's are the brownest eyes
Wet and sad like a spaniel dogs
Tracing the shiny brass buttons on my uniform coat
Chloe is to young to understand why i clench her hand tighter
each time the guns fire for her Daddy
To young to hate me for not saving him.
United we stand divided we all fall. Nowadays history seems to be having domino effects. attending public places of worship, public bathrooms, police brutality, institutions of learning, playgrounds, kidnappings are on the rise, hatred, jealousy and senseless mass murders in the land we call home of the brave and freedom where is the safety and happiness bestowed innocent and struggling people will it ever be hope that one day we will all unite.

This Country our home
We’ve been mocked and dethroned
Where once we could lean
Now to each to their own
Soldiers of World
We’re put to the test
Pushed to the front line
A domino effect
If you fail you’re replaced
The Earth still moves
But to look into their eyes
Your choice, you choose
A self destructive axis
Does this world tilt
More blood shed
More blood spilled
And so we keep building
Another nail in our Hell
We need not War
We’ve destroyed us ourselves..
