Of something too precious
Never found that sonnet
Numbed this memory
Ensued much sadness
Towards twilight of loss...

For some vegetables soon to be stewed
I picked up a tomato
Along with a potato
But with no money a foot chase ensued...

God all our lives He renewed;
Freedom did ring,
Spring to spring;
Another great day we ensued.

Food Feud Ensued

Resulting conflict we found about food,
And much embarrassment we ensued;
That was best,
Then the rest,
Which had resulted in a family feud.

The water from the blow hole spewed.
It’s hard to believe what then ensued.
With his powerful tail and massive speed,
The great humpback whale’s breaching was awesome to see....

And viewed;
We had also found them to be inherent.

led astray in convoluted evolution
'tween muses fiery premonitions 
and starlit descending skies' envy...

i stepped inside 
       my throat  

  to choke a lie 

the room was festive
   with devils and 
prancing disease

 a war ensued 
  internally

a history 
—  acclivity!

A breakthrough was imminent,
Exhilaration ensued;
  Ships listed idly,
  The HEAVENS were still.

   Ere a headline's created

Enough of his horrible behavior endured
And of any good will was never a steward;
His terrible eloquence he should exclude.

I took a step forward
and motion ensued
Another couple steps toward
True gratitude
My momentum gained
as did my altitude
Freedom attained 
but of greater magnitude
Not merely uncontained
In a quaint interlude
But divinely unrestrained 
And verily imbued...

A fairytale
with you and I
beauty was wide awake

something entered 
my blood stream
and suddenly I
needed every ounce of you.
My high. My don't say goodbye.
My. My, my, my...
Love simplified...

he pulled the trigger
the bang ensued

the barrel exploded
in a white flash

the bullet had
not far to go

in less than one second
she would be dead

the bullet entered her head
without a sound

then exited
pulling with it

what had been inside it
before the shot's resound...

A party political war is always ensued
Mostly to protect the few not what's best
Even if it is in the vested interest for all
Remember the founding father's dream
I chose this nation be full of dream chasers
Constitution are guidelines not mose's tablets
America time for a new dawn awake now...
