We vote for our lives,
not for fictional speeches...
of "democracy"...!
Demanding possession…
nine tenths of the law
Last bone to fight over
—its marrow still raw
(Dreamsleep: October, 2020)
The end of all is vanity,
damnation so accused
The mirror speaking falsely
—of promise purple hued
(Dreamsleep: June, 2022)
The colonial masters have gone
Our self-crowned kings rule now
Citizens have gone skin and bone
Like animals we exist somehow
I
Hope dances in sparkling terms
II
Dashed justice equals ascerbic lives
III
Hope sparkles like false diamonds in South Africa

To determine truth,
I check the story's birth tongue
was it trustworthy?
False Friends
Admiration reigns.
Social gains replace honor
Where, false friends frolic.

Miracle Man

Smaller fish can’t stop
our illegal invasion,
and the big fish won’t.
False masters
only instruct A, not B
only the Y, not the X...
Illuminate nothing...
nothing feels more pathetically empty
than a false sense of pride. ha!...
as if bullies don't know!
The darker side of morning,
the drier side of rain
A memory left forgetting
—a spirit uncontained
(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2019)
Forming alliances
Lest you forget friendships bought
Aren't friendships forged
And those smiles are not for you
But the weight of coins on you
Truth eludes a man.
Searching eyes.
He finds deceit.
Sunglasses cover.
Rouge camouflages.
Daylight illuminates.
Poison asps.
Drip blood.
A nudist said, "Oh, what the heck!
I shall get my suntan on deck!"
A girl came along
And saw something wrong
But when it spat, she broke its neck
hurting with false love's
loving sin not less grievous
more than murdering
Rhyming Senryu
Prancing, arrogance,
Such obnoxious flatulence.
You, caught,in his trance.

Those boosting creation vent steam
They scream that life has a grand scheme
In fact we don't know
Where all this will go
And anything else is a dream.
She said no
Showing maybe hope
Of one chance
That could be
But there was just nothing there
Vibes false hope

Form – Shadorma -- 3/5/3/3/7/5
There once was an old woman from Madrid
Husband disapproved everything she did
Cereal's too cold
Meat's too old
One day in anger his false teeth she hid
condemned by the TRUTH
l o s t in a world with no joy
false vows sworn…wedding
FICTIONAL WRITE
Date: September 19, 2016
A false witness
Seldom goes unpunished,
So never profane
The name of a friend.
Guard your tongue
And choose your words,
Broken friendships
Sometime don't mend.
The oath is false ,
The promises are false now.
Now someone who is playing
with heart is a liar.
No valuation of things
Stole the heart of the
Spoken words.
putting magic spell
of different chanting words
false is seen real there
I am unhappy with myself.
My body is clearly overweight
(And starving clearly isn't going to help).
I think I've lost some,
But it's just a water-weight illusion.
Mona Lisa: Oh,
not too poetic portrait
of a solitude,
intriguing others, with look---
so mystic, like her master!
