A Four-Line Apology In Iambic Pentameter

We’re sorry we erased your tally board.
This careless, wee mistake shan’t be ignored
by me, the thoughtless teacher who effaced
this box of precious points, gone in swift haste.

Fat Cats and Lawyers

Sharp Suited Sharks 
Feeding
Fervently Feasting, Foul Fiends 
Covetous Cuthroats, Cultured Convicts Convincing
Innocents Inked In Immensely Incurred Interests, 
Indebted
Enslaved, Effaced Emotions, Exasperated

love's force, gusting, unbroken breeze, turned our Nazarite warrior who'd wrestled lions, effaced the foe with a donkey's mandible but his prime weakness was known after decoy lips blinded him

Poet Bird Poet

What is a dead bird?
     a verse without wings that
     doesn't fly anymore...
     What is a living poet?
      a winged bird that poetizes 
      life..,
      And when a poet dies?
      a complete poem effaced 
      from the world...


The Rotten Luck

Mountains I tread break to rubbles;
Arts I sculpture wane to scribbles;
The defiant paladin has effaced from presence
And a gruesome ghost is left behind;
God despises my very existence
Burning this life he once lent;
He blunt my sword and burnt my shield
But my feral heart will never yield.

Storm and After

Under water drowned
Gone with the wind
Under rubble buried
And by pestilence effaced
Smitten by a ferocious storm
Civilizations go into oblivion!!

+++++++++++++++++++++

The sun is shining
The shoots are erupting
The flowers are blooming
The butterflies are twirling
The sad old earth 
Is brimming with mirth

Sea Change

Its quest is over.
Life's. Wholesome-faced.
At this drop off point, a world's
Sea-washed. Effaced.

Shackled by which search, a slave's
Profitless, for coin
Proved it, toward more and more
Becoming joy-rich
Now breathing freer, will ditch
What for too long chafed
Of self deceit, to the winds.
Sharpest thought-cleansing

The Painting On the Wall

The painting,
            on the wall
           from splendorous art
            almost effaced..
           Due so much
           bitterness totally
           yellowed....
           from fright into
           stupefaction 
             almost  lost
           all colors...
           But it wasn't whitening,
           it was fading
           of pain...!

Note: This is fiction, but, sadly, many first wives get dumped for younger women.


He says he loves her . . . 

With senses reeling
	and edges blurred,
I'm frozen in shock, unable to pull
my heart from under the knife.

I've loved him from childhood.
My purpose, my identity,
my very self, effaced
by him, our two sons
and one daughter.

Everything I've known
sliced away in one crushing blow -
three spoken words.

He says he loves her.
