Pink enamel
bitten to
remnants of lacquer
not quite chipped
away.

success-
the enamel
disguising a mess
where the meaning
becomes less and less
forsaking confusion
for a state of illusion
with a gesture-
of subtle finesse

I do not know?
Hands down, the sleeper
Sits on a seclusive seat of hope:
Aging lips survey a feast
With disdain, and crust at the
Hair peach crying out for barber Enamel
Atop its push-up chair of
Amethyst and scarlet.

Rather than but like
graffiti it is
this life, this love
out there yet hidden
in the art form
out of mind
caricatured remnants
of moments past
the sniff of glue, enamel vapour
the splatter of it
on the backdrop of imagination
reality forms
Like Graffiti

Eating sugary foods
each day is known to cause
enamel damage; so
ensure you brush your teeth!
Eroded teeth can give
excruciating pain …
extraction could follow!

Verse
The Winter is enamel;
buckets of cold,
sodden pots of late growth.
Snow ship.
Trees taut with
tackle of frost.
Earth hard as
the white sea,
adrift and lost
between seasons
made of ice and sorts
of rain, not falling,
not sailing.
Dull and still
as December.

Curved and simple
as milkbone,
used as a hidden grail,
a pale listener.
When the morning rain calls
we carry buckets into the yard.
Warm lipped from mugs,
knights of clink and
clack, we triumph over
cobbles, flood past the latch.
We know grey and the
weight in one arm.

The trinity of trees
Ice and weak light
Bitter as the
Sharp cold, pools
Of thin water that
Grab like trolls at
Heavy ankles, breath
That steams off a
Horse`s back,
And the sky, the sky
Enamel under
An artic moon;
The year closed
Like a wet copse
Standing in the frost

( for Syria)
Flywheels enamel
with heartblood,
aortal ticks hesitate
before the dull bang
of a falling fist;
the fat knuckle
of the next hit,
tick tick the small ones,
the eaters of dust,
stone-eyed they
fall apart like lost time,
the weights that
regulate all this
are unbalanced.

If I gave up sugar
would I crave more salt?
Filling up my diet with potato chips and French fries?
If I gave up sugar
would the enamel grow back on my teeth
Would my missing teeth grow back?
If I gave up sugar
would I lose weight and feel healthy?
Would I still be me?
I daresay I will never know

Fun
Skating on thin ice describes for some
that nice Deception--fun,
taunting the chill fathom
beneath the white skin.
Too much like spending
small change for me.
All that over-shoulder peeking
to be sure the depth's not there.
When one hard look would send
those enamel eyes
crashing through
a surprise of air.

Light Verse
Chewing is my favorite sport
You can have the wine, the port
My teeth were sharp, my teeth were fine
Until we hit that 30’s line
Enamel gone, chipped off by ice,
Tried to ignore dental advice
Cavities in my icy mouth
Five root canals, we’re going south
Pain and awfulness even a bridge
I think twice now when I open that frig

a basin of white chipped enamel
tips the wash over the pale streets;
lights appear in the random order
of secret intent; confused stars
in an untidy sky light the northern stone,
hours slip behind a rook`s shadow;
a rain curtain falls as we sigh with routine:
we are waiting for a small, clean death,
trapped between the sun and the moon.

Contest entry: Kintsuroi
Oh the mass of rotted enamel
The disfiguration of an old time beauty
Brown gravestones twisted
It really is not me…
No amalgam to repair
I think I will be bold
And look into kintsuroi
And get them fixed with gold
A dashing smile of golden teeth
I will flash your way
But I think it is expensive and
You may have to pay

charred and smooth
black inside white enamel
decadence from the inside out
that evil temptress here to steal a tooth
and replace it so sweet with caramel
to fatten my mouth and fill it stout
sparkling and rugged
white inside black soot
decadence from the outside in
mine own mistress bruised and mugged
rotten from the brain to foot
whip me right in my ugly sin

Mother of folktales
Milking and waxing.
I wish you for a taste
We'll sing and have cocktails
Under your enamel masking
A night with you never a waste.
Your beautiful smile
Subdues the nights' dread
And gives comforts in sleep.
You light every mile
Of your milking spread
A delight worth to keep.
My eyes await you
The sight of your white hue.

Porcelain doll hangs on shadows and wings
Of twilight’s frame. Guarding an autumn child,
The toy lightens ink of stenciled dusk
As her enamel fingers gleam like candles...
Yellow the stars where she comes from
robed in fine lace . Through heaven’s print
An angel in disguise bestows love, as
Porcelain doll hangs on shadows and wings

Verse
Planes breaking like towers on 9/11
Is anyone in heaven labeled 7
Stuck in hell with a big gun on my belt
Ready to fight my way out til I melt
Hell’s kitchen is not as bad as you'd think
Oppression bears black; a giant mammal
I just want to rip out tooth enamel
Ramble about my condition as a slave
N***** they call me, my mind is a rave
Luck’s lost on lucky leigh way left of love

Iambic Pentameter
Wiggles and tugs
not a chance for a pull
excited and nervous
soon to be a little less full
relief ne'er a cry
the battle is done
a few crimson drops
freedom is won
filling the night with
enamel fairy tale dreams
magic's released
under down so it seems
with sun sparkling her eyes
on a bed made for a queen
countless treasures arise
and her hole smile is seen

Personification
They began to quarrel,
After he heard ‘Squirrel!’
Instead of Stan Scammel
And he called him ‘Rommel’:
“The Not-Strong Enamel”
Who could Hitler blackmail
While it was ‘Same Barrel!’
Then, they stopped The Quarrel,
When he heard ‘Becquerel’
A Laureate with a Laurel …
Quarrels from Nicknaming:
A Purposed Misnaming!
Who would such start claiming:
A hateful Misnomer;
KGB’s Informer
For OGB Omar …
