A solar halo
Sol Invictus blistering
Or the cross blazing
Burning for roman bloodshed
Who in truth was Cain scheming
The cadaver of an emperor
Lying in wait at the bottom of the catacombs
He is halcyonily waiting
Not for bandits but for Life
Form:
ice cream cone
finally throwing out Stevens*
I find the emperor
and feel its comforting taste
the soft crunch of melting cone
Client 9 Governor Spitzer
Was once New York’s ethics blitzer
This VIP flub
At the Emperor Club
Came from an overworked spritzer
Listen to poem:
all bark, no trunk tree
wind howls from cruel blank sea
calls all in, bluffing
the emperor has no clothes
no child innocent remains
The umpire had a temper
The emperor, he did too
They got together
The ump called the emp out
The emp called his soldiers in
"Their cross will decay
Rome will be as a phoenix
Helios will reign supreme"
"The sun always sets
Accept the eagle’s old age
Find dominion in your mind"
The Emperor jailed in wishful thinking,
where only he could be
As I escape inside myself
—a prisoner running free
(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2016)
Tone of Judith emperor of resolution stand high
hexagram of faith engage truth of day
Congregation salah of hymn
Voice of heaven above
What is it to listen.
If ignorance is truly bliss,
and the Emperor has new clothes
Then who am I to judge at all
—where peace and freedom go
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2014)
Roman Gnome
There once was an Emperor of Rome
Who invented the first garden Gnome
He thought it looked cute
In its Christian suit
Mascot to the Coliseum of Rome
‘Mens sane in corpore sano’
“A sound mind in a healthy body”
A phrase once fit for the Emperor of Rome
In America today, the saying hits home
Love like in Mine
Glittering
Glistering
In Mine
The heart
Love's dear
Heaven feels near
Pain subdued
Love regnant
Soul's emperor
Body's lord.

(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)
There's a fiddler on the White House roof.
As the world burns, he is clearly aloof.
Just like Emperor Nero,
he is surely no hero,
and frankly we've had enough of this goof.
In the annals of Rome the least glorious
was an emperor named Honorius.
Though Rome's plight was alarming
he spent his time chicken farming,
a pursuit which made him notorious.
The Death Star builder said it was flawless
But in hindsight he wasn’t too cautious
There was the exposed center
But what really helped end her
The emperor had no corner office
An emperor named Julius Caesar
Used to pluck his fine hairs with a tweezer --
When media just giggled
Caesar wriggled and wiggled --
Said: "My wife hates them ~ I try to please her
Ludwig's emperor sounded supreme -
staying unpremiered,in his dream
Tribute to Beethoven and the story of his 5th symphony
green praying mantis
winged emperor dragonfly
spotted ladybug
dancing stag beetle
fat chubby potato bug
sneaky silver fish
purposeful black ant
yellow striped mud dauber
our insect line up
To be truly and deeply Confucian,
we don’t need a refined constitution.
Just obey mom and dad.
Choose the good — not the bad.
Serve the Emperor, S/shun revolution.
One of the mysteries in the history of man
Kamikaze pilots wearing helmets, I don't understand
To live and to die
For the Emperor, they cry
Unimaginable to us but for the glory of Japan
We can single out the tenacious grass after a storm
And the most devoted officials in turbulence.
A bully knows nothing about morality and justice,
While a wise man always harbours benevolence.
(tran.)
Wallace Stevens ' EMPEROR OF ICE CREAM'

Do you suppose the Emperor knows
he isn’t wearing any clothes
and doesn't have a stitch of what
should keep hidden all he's got
or has not?
And if he knew, what would he do
but pretend he didn’t.
