April Magic

When April’s wind briskly blew
Beth’s spring skirt billowed and flew:
Men on the street
Got an eye-treat
‘Cause panties, chose Beth to eschew.

Premium Member Life With T-Rump Xxvii

The Iran pact's signed with a seal
But t-rump can't stand Shia zeal
So them he'll eschew
And force a new breakthrough
Since only he knows how to deal

Premium Member rights come with borders

An act-as-they-wish guarantee
Leads brutes to think they’ll tread on me
But I too have rights
And might eschew fights
If backed by a fair referee

Premium Member Sports Stars, Paid Millions

Sports stars these days
  get paid millions to play
    little boys and little girls games

  Yet jobs that only adults can do
    sports stars are wont to eschew

Premium Member Heresy

I must reject the holy-moly, mumbo-jumbo,
All that spirituality soup—Chicken Dumbo.
Atheists, Existentialists, and I, Agnostic,
Eschew the false enlightenment—socially caustic.

Return To the Stars

If we remember to look at horizon and sky
The Universe draws us higher, whispers a reply
We all are stardust yet somehow so earthy
Humans eschew solid troughs, for color & crest (the showy)

Premium Member I Shall Not Pray for Roses

I shall not pray for roses,
When daffodils would do:
There's glory in the simple things
That I will not eschew.

I shall not pray for roses,
When daffodils would do:
The simple without poses,
I never shall eschew.

I Stand Accused

No more book fairs or tours
  no autographs signed

My words are my gift
  the privacy mine

No talk shows or fetes
  New York Times to eschew

Questions unanswered
  —my thoughts unreviewed

First Birthday

Happy birthday to a tot on her one-eth
Most times its best to not know what cometh.
But it has been said by prophets, forsooth:
Surely you'll have more teeth on your twoth
Oh glory to vittles masticatable
You'll be glad to eschew the unchewable.

One Shot

In spite of all your riches
you eschew what prophets do
Basilicas you build to self
with time but empty pews

Wealth deadly suicidal
when wielded as a gun
Whose target sits between your eyes
with one shot zero-sum

God's Way

I don't think
so I stink,
evil I didn't eschew
it I did chew,
God i took for granted
I became grounded,
had bad attitude
that brought low altitude,
I don't pray
so I was the devil's prey,
I got tired
and decided to be fired,
then I gave God a chance
He made me to dance.

The Only Thing That Matters

Search the world
for your treasures,
lap up luxury, 
fondle greed, 
eschew the lowly
and humble
while your ego
struts naked before
a disdainful world.

But I would give up
Shakespeare's crown
and the touch of Midas
to seek the only thing
that matters-- to be
in God's good grace.

Faint gold dewdrop stream slid down my face,
branches creak whilst tuneful birds quite  chirpy,
sun-blest hue’d wave a bright dream noble splatter,
cerulean veneer  on sky has me now transfixed,
random green leaf cascade gulp by lithe gust,
I eschew blindness whilst celebrating gift of sense

Premium Member The Sin of Sloth

when we fall prey to complacency 

and comfortably wallow in abject sloth, 
    
                   we suffocate motivation in its nascency. 

eschew apathy and inactivity; rise above both!

Apocalypse---

Abortive gorgons cling.
Political messiahs creep.
Other dystopias eschew.
Called messiahs lament.
American messiahs laze.
Lyrical raptures luxuriate.
Youthful doomsayers linger.
Private revelations lurk.
Startling revelations cower.
Environmental catastrophes cavort.

Premium Member Homeless

How must it feel to carry all you own
in one old shopping cart or your back,
to trudge through alleys weary to the bone,
to crave the food and shelter that you lack,
to long to leave the street life you eschew?  

But for the grace of God, we’d be there too.

Utter Nonsense

Allow me to introduce the hermit Hugh who I do deduce felt it within himself to eschew an embrace yet being obtuse when on a wild chase did goose a moose in the caboose then a disgrace but such behaviour did induce Bruce another recluse to pick up the pace when playing footsie under the table fast and loose

An Acrostic by James Edward Lee Sr.
Formal wordings formulate.

Aided graphics essay.

Long billows eat.

Lyrical laments seethe.


Induced decreases compare.

Nominated creatives eschew.


Lesser peaks reach.

Open ears exult.

Valiant deeds write.

English ears enter.

Write It Right

Wright, write right
Real men eschew fright
In this place, wrongs are right
Traditional rites in daylight?
Expose how that day turned night

In that pen there is might
Take a step with great delight

Right things be written right
Include that supernatural flight
Get thy vision shinning bright
Heave up thy humdrum sight
Think deep and be a knight

Premium Member Make Good Choices

Though I love intelligence, candor is recompence 
Smart is an art, but love comes from above
Kiss over compliment, neither will pay the rent
Nor inflation, adulation, inclination, or shove

Now in combination lie's true adoration
Choosing wisely should be life's aspiration
Eschew impropriety, display some sobriety
And wisely choose the better thereof

Premium Member Pragmatic Position

Proud poets parade playful wordy wit, 
Their careful craft becomes just diddly s..t. 
No matter how hard we may try 
Can’t outdo IQ of AI. 
Shall we hoist the white flag and run with it?! 

Digital era deemed undignified, 
As bright grey matter becomes atrophied. 
Before the mindset goes awry, 
We shall eschew diddly AI -
Its fatuous facade is dead inside!

Don'T Abhor a Whore

Of the things we abhor
We should not add a whore. 
You can one give a store
To build with a strength raw 
And - Yes - urge to make core
A trade which cleans The Sore:
The world show A New Floor
On which no trash she'll pour:
New space, new floor, New Door...

Of the things whores abhor
They should eschew labor:
Commerce not think A Bore,
Idleness not harbour.
