Now ladies and gents, let's bring no offense
to the lads that wear tightly clad drabs
They liked the film Kinky Boots
And have watched The Full Monty
So now they dance naked and/or dress drag!
for compassion...
hate like silent venom flows
spewing forth in dribs and drabs
how will the wounds ever heal
with such vitriol tearing at the scabs
we shudder at the words of hate
and wonder will it ever cease
but hope springs forth for
we know it begins within us, now, today
with the simplest acts of human compassion
so that gentle love may banish the hate away
Form:
You make the minutes dribble
Down the meanderings of time
First drizzling
Then dripping
In dribs and drabs
Then dropping
In driblets
That drain the hours
And drown the days
And I
With my drowsy eyes
My drifting mind
And shaking hand
Turn a deaf ear
To the hue and cry
To the whys
And the wherefores
of your fatal lure
For I have no time
To let go of you
And live my life
As you have already
eaten it up
ripples of water torture accepted
the wrinkle of time descending
mannahly marantic romance
torticollis dribs and drabs of syringe
honey’d seeds remain; cakes fade away
dawn will erase; placidity will forget
but the depths release their seamonsters
reflected in the honeymoon, between palms
with firework stars overhead; eternal bliss

*mannahly - mannah turned into an adverb
Midnight
and the darkened silence
dreams
waking in shadows
looking for you.
Morning rises
slow and steady in the sky
burning
inner passions
seeking for you.
Mid afternoon
falls in dribs and drabs
tearing
in hot summer sun
waiting for you.
Mid evening shade
cools and calms the heart
beating
tired of the day
wanting you still.
Midnight calls
slip sliding to sleep
dreaming
pulling images and figures in
I'll be back for you.
BITS AND PIECES
Bits and pieces they say makes the whole
A whole of what I can't help but ask
Bits and pieces of pain - despondence
Bits and pieces of lies - distrust
Bits and pieces of self - egocentricity
Whatever be your chosen assort.
So,
The bits and pieces you chose to gather
In mind do bear the responsibility of
that the bits and pieces you then do sow
To lend from the French "des choses"
Are the sort of dribs and drabs ......
You should feel no fear to harvest.
