Going home for tea
We're not going anywhere

flattened by angry waves
wind-borne suffering.

Bad Hair Day
Washed and dried and fluffed and curled,
Sprayed to hold the look in place.
Into the rain and it unfurled,
Wet and flattened all over my face....

Knowledge
Knowledge mimics power
Conquered falseness levels
Flattened social meaning
Stops as study strengthens
Smiles embedded surface
Mighty critics vanish....

Time
The wind
always gets things moving.
The flattened Marlboro
cigarette package
cartwheels
across the street
before the light
changes.
But don't we all?...

Lilies white,
Red, blue and yellow,
Jutting from out the pond,
Pad broad and flattened out
But not one frog to sit.
Schools of gold
Some of white
With few of ebony....

Hippo In a Tree
Hippo in a Tree
If you saw a Hippo, sitting in a tree,
One thing is certain, as certain can be,
Upon my word, then I’ll be bound,
A tree and a Hippo, flattened on the ground....

flattened by unheeding wheels
No! He escaped!!

Kite
Wavy
Flattened
Flying
To Kite
When in the sky.
Thousands
Happy eyes
Saw cut.
Hundreds of feet
Same number of high hands
Get help
On
Regret
With every help
Him
Seen plundered....

Lifes On the Move
Life’s on
The move
These days
Days go by
Like a flattened
Mosquito on eye
Can we recall
This life
Leave our
Bodies behind
To be recycled
Rip out our souls
Off that wall
Of hate
Or will
We break...

8 12ish Number 2
8 12ish #2
Decked out in gorgeous red,
Lilies white, violet, blue and yellow
Jutting out from the pond,
Pads broad and flattened out
But not one frog to sit.
Schools of gold,
Some to faded white
With few of ebony....

Queen of Spades
Wearing her crown of dark cascades,
Her wooden staff with a flattened blade
Burying her secrets dark and deep
Of tri-tangos and bloody reaps
Adorned in shadows with reddened glaze,
All hail,
The Queen of Spades....

Flattened and Covered
Flattened and covered
In wicked water
A vindictive vision
Where disease diffuses
And people lose their words
And lives
I sit here helpless
As you feebly float, fighting
Only a true warrior
Will win this battle...

Top That
Tarquin wore a top hat
Sometimes called a topper
He loved to wear his top hat
As he was prim and proper
One day while strolling casually
Not causing any fuss
A gust of wind blew off his hat
Which flattened it under a bus...

Camille
She was out there in the dark
A brooding, angry monster
She attacked, screaming in fury
Wind gauges flattened and futile
She came to purge, to cleanse...
*Wind speed estimated at 230 MPH
Sumitted for: Black Eyed Susan's contest...

Narrative
Politick
an old man's mouth
nose dives
the slumping drawbridge
of an flattened fortress
rocketing obscenities fallout
fissioned lips as overtaxed
silkworms labor on
spinning cesium shrouds
to hide our dead
from presidential eyes...

Grief
Here, but not touched.
Waiting...
for none but another ending.
Figurative pages are flexed, flattened
and shadows remain ungrasped.
Breath is unready for impact.
Staring at a stationary page marker stone,
I observe the outcome....

For All You Know
For all you know
I could be hanging
In an all but empty closet
I could be flattened
Beneath a once moving vehicle
Or laid out, cracked and motionless
On a nearby sidewalk
For all you know
I could be gone
And for all I know
You don’t care...

Helpless An
A million feet stomp,
A million shoes, a million suits
Her petals have flattened into the ground
It’s rush hour
A woman stops briskly,
A happy change for her
Bending slowly with the stampede around her
She picks up the flower and brings her home....
