Domitila

She stood languidly under neon light 
Scant -clad bossom shine in erotic glory
Her tresses dance flippantly like reeds of the niger
Rag and ropes hung  carelessly-gorgeously on curvy cliffs
Her recklessly  red lip
Draw lustymen from the possessive warmth of their wary wives
As tiro-ed lashes coquetishly 
Lead them to sheol.

Premium Member The Sun Bird

There she is…
Hopping lightly from branches of 
Each tree she rests on.

She is taking the day flippantly
Unworried, gently flipping thru’ the ruffling day
No matter what happens, even when things go

Beyond expectation of sweet bitterness
In dawn sorrow before dusk happiness
Rocketing up to the sky, and finally
Down again to the earth, gently, lightly.

A Mean Scout

He was a Mean Scout,
This showing with a pout, 
His Upper Lip and The Lower out:
Just finer than a pig’s snout!

He was a Coarse Scout,
Readiness showing for a bout, 
With knees at the mercy of gout;
An eagerness to a rival rout!

But should a well-groomed scout 
The slogans of The Rash tout;
An integrity leave in doubt;
Shoulders rub with a lout…

Sacrosanct rules of scout
Flippantly flout?
