Poor Pitiful Me
Stumblin' through the haze
In a dumfounded daze
In a muddled malaise
Like a mouse in a maze

Broke and blase
Stuck in my ways
My libido won't blaze
My mojo betrays

Got a glaze in my gaze
Got nuthin' to praise
Hope it's only a phase
Or just one of those days......

The Retiring Professor: First Lines
“Seventy-four is about apology,” said Ferdy. 
“Well apology and memory. 
If you have literary pretensions, it's about 
apology and narrative.” 

Ferdy's class sat there dumfounded. 
This was a little different from the usual class. 
“The only question left is 
how much apology is needed? when can one let up?”...

Are we
ever happy
inside,really,
or  dumfounded
under hopes.

Always, questions
elude serious
investigations, bewilders
ordinary, acknowledged
understanding.  

Alarming solutions, 
explanations to
intricate queries, 
obviously will
unsettle. 

Antonyms come, 
enthralling, philosophical
in nature
once realized,
unforgettable.

Son of a Devil
Son of the devil I am
Am I, I a psychologically 
Misunderstood individuality
Emitting my soul in the caress of hypochondriasis
Believing in the many illness of fame 
Belligerently dumfounded to using a needle point frame 
On the oasis of my flesh 
To depict-ate past failures, un-relieved stress and to provoke
An aggressiveness determination
Not blinded by greed, and to be astronomically true to me
Me the son of a devil...

Hollow Man
The joy that used to lit your face,
has now been erased.
Your face now shadowed.
hollowed.
Plastered with disdain

I knew you before you knew yourself.
I got pulled in by your light,
Now i stare at this reflection before me,
dread tugs at my heart,
At the sudden realization,
You are not you any more

The exuberance you one exerted,
defeated by the harsh trials of life.
That has now twisted you into a devoid man.
Leaving me staring dumfounded.
Into a strangers eyes...
