Time Hunter

Words of malice, curses flamed, 
hiding in the past

No license needed to hunt through time
—the present armed en masse

So here's to Happy Tubby Tuesday,
The big New Orleans jazz & blues day,
With the drunken revelers en masse...
On second thought, let's give it a pass.

one night
love to pass

past sublime
past en masse
our brass

Where lives are bought and sold en masse
And profit is viewed as the
One true gift to bestow
Upon a quiet
Unsuspecting

Premium Member Malapropism

The Science teacher told his eager class
"Alas, I can’t read without my eye glass
In rest room, left my testicles"
What he meant was ‘spectacles’
The children broke into laughter en masse

My Saint

You shield my soul, you are a saint
Joy to my heart you surely bring
You hold me near when I feel faint
This is far from just a bodily fling
This love we en masse can force my soul to sing.

Premium Member Transparent Deterrence

Immigrant bodies pile up in Texas

After building a wall from ‘freedom’ glass

Green card for hard labour

Slave on dearest neighbour

Watch your companions expire en masse

Running in the grass,
               The kitten ran with joyful sass,
               Birds flew south, en masse!

Premium Member Celtic Daydream


There was an old man who marched in Dublin,
danced to malachite past, wore shammocks lean.
            Guinness stout in clinking glass
            he drank whole night en masse.
Through the day he dreamed Celtic dreams umpteen.

Fear

I'm afraid of broken glass
Spider webs and crowds en masse
Lonely days and family fights
I'm afraid of sleepless nights
I'm afraid of guns and war
Losing friends can't take much more
Reflecting water blue eyes see
The thing that I fear most is me.

Premium Member Pete's Enigma

Pete's spouse accused him of having no class.

   Socially, folks avoided him en masse.

      He had a most dreadful flaw,

         That made some people guffaw.

            He could not control the passing of gas!

The R and R black mirror

The saintly row the black swan in tow, meretriciously inclined against saint's row, where dreams are dashed against a black mirror abashed, like a troglodyte who shouldn't en-masse, so whimsy see this here instead of your black mirror, eyes lent to skeletons in the closet of fears.

Premium Member Heaven Or Hell

Heaven or Hell Written: by Tom Wright 2/20/2013 We must all travail our lifespan, To receive a boarding pass; Or to the fire from fry-pan, Where souls will go en masse; God granted option at the cross, To select our destination; Accepting, he forgives our dross, And ensures us of salvation;

En Masse

For us, I want laws to pass
Not congress sitting around smoking grass
Always deliberation
Hiding in hibernation
Full force, en masse, get off your lazy ass!

Anonymity

although I sensed
its impassiveness
even back then,

i always loved
that
little village

of familiar eyes
looking
passively beyond me

you and I forced
together
in central fact

pressured en masse
into a
averse embrace

somehow in tune
perceiving 
one another’s desires

but powerless
to surpass
obscurity

Eternity's Wings

The last door now open,
  freedom’s been found

The air burns electric 
  the words different sounds

To fly unabated
   with heavens consent

En masse celebration, 
  the god’s do relent

All feeling enraptured
   new joy to be shared

The journey, the struggle
   —salvation ensnared

Premium Member Ministers of Truth

Each time Trump says the country’s a wreck,
they go out to the roads to inspect.
If Woody Woodpecker
had had a fact checker,
they’d be feeling his feathers to check.

On The View though, they all get a pass
when Whoopi cushions spew forth their gas.
Trump will jail your miscarriage,
end interracial marriage,
and lock up his opponents en masse.

Dismissal

We stand outside, in heat or cold 
And one by one, each class
Is marched outside to reunite
With we who wait, en masse.

The teachers watch to match each child 
With parent, sitter or
A nana or a grandpa
Huddled near the exit door.

The children run to give a hug
To those who stand and wait,
The teachers glad their obligations 
They can abdicate.

Premium Member En Masse: Your Okay Because I Love You, Julie

Laden in morning rises,
finding me in your irises
my creativity waits gently on the other side of this door
that creaks soft with hums that
hem your hair behind your perfect ears.

We're all children on couches
falling in our fresh and sudden thoughts
with bottomless candor,
pressing lips against young and flaming worries.

The door is swung open now
and unknown flowers are singing en masse.

Premium Member Ethics Class

I gave a lecture to an ethics class Nearing the middle they walked out en masse Of course, I felt like the dumbest jackass. The students, they had not meant to harass, Although they were quite high on laughing gas I’d never thought ethics such a morass In this case, though, I’d fallen on my a**. I learned this through the candor of a lass Giving a lecture to an ethics class.

Premium Member September Sandhills

September’s end descended swiftly
on the island of Manitou, as dark clouds
and strong winds vanquished yesterday’s
sun, bringing gray skies and cold rain.

In the fields, sandhill cranes gather,
then lift, en masse, silhouetted against
a sombre sky, their raucous cries harkening
to prehistoric times as they disappear across
the horizon following the east wind which
will carry them to Michigan and beyond.

We lower our heads and pedal on.
