Trump Was a Faust
Trump Was A Faust
About Trump up we ere trying to roust.
When we had found him to be a Faust;
Looked in lake;
Found more fake,
News on fire put out when we doused.

Ursa Minor
Jupiter, your fallen house,
A strife, and unto me,
A deal that mirrors that of Faust
When Hell’s my home to be?
Mercury, you orbit close
Gemini, the Twins, am I
Side by side, am juxtaposed-
To Pluto’s ruling Sign...

Manipulation
Mephistopheles cons Faust
Snake charmer tricks a Cobra
to dance into submission...
forgetting to strike!

Lost Words
I'm all choked up
my words are lost.
for one more
look at you
I'd sell my soul
and become
a modern day faust.
Your deep brown eyes
pull me into a place,
unlike any I've ever been
and I know I should
leave posthaste then.
But your beauty
blinds me
and I'm surrounded.
I can't resist you
I must admit
this leaves me
quite confounded.

My Mountain Jack Rabbit Joust
Mountain jack rabbit, grown giant as a house
Came down from the hills, demanded we joust.
I honored his request, brought down the house.
We watched some TV, we caught a red mouse.
We read some books, he wanted to read Faust.
Gave him a copy, he was at home in my house.
Cheese soup sandwiches and wine, reward for our joust.
I made a new friend, who hopped home with a mouse....

Mr. Faust
See...
Six thrice...
Mister Faust
Upon your head
All years you exchanged
For currency and wine
Divine you were but you chose
Leviathan to plant a rose...
Divine you were but you chose
For currency and wine
All years you exchanged
Upon your head
Mister Faust
Six thrice...
See...
Faust: (foust)- a man in legend and literature who sells his soul to the devil for
knowledge and power....
