Red leaves on pavements drop
Poppy petals from a tree;
Lives remembered once a year!
Forfeits for thee and me.
Spring blossom on pavements drop--
White petal from a tree;
A death recalled just once a year!
In place of me and thee.

Time to rhyme sweet chimes,
Mood moves morphing mimes.
Show true glow that flows,
Mind maze forfeits know.
Lines forge feelings fine,
Sad heart feeds odd pine.
Stray echoes hurl yet
Busy blend now set

Noise forfeits poise
Charm mellows voice
Look deeper then
Time transform when
Poise wears stern choice
Voice anchors noise
Then heeds sure proof
When transacts truth
Start with noise lack
Silence now stacks

See beyond mere sense, look
The steep way forfeits book
Bubbles in mystic bath
Sense leaking waters rough
Fault finds moves that fumble
In dying distant dangle
Slide upon the slippery
We all fall down easy
Lost souls I remembered
Dying bruised and battered

Choice follows poise,
Heed how joy feels;
Voice forfeits noise,
Watch how cheer heals.
Pile profound smiles,
See how love moves;
Style poignant while,
Stream happy grooves.
Mind bestows finds,
Hope knows grand scope;
Sign moments kind,
Faith helps life cope.

Joy works a smile
With charming style
Joy spreads a flow
With healing glow
Joy fits each face
With easy trace
Joy knows each name
Yet forfeits blame
Joy floods bold ease
In actual peace
Joy purges pain
To forge new gains
Joy sculpts and speaks
As truth now peaks

This weary world
Of dreary swirls
Frames and unfurls
This taunting voice
In feeble choice
Describes odd poise
This touch of daze
In haunting maze
Feeds a mad craze
This line of thought
Forfeits sane lot
For empty plot
This puzzling script
Feels nondescript
In awkward grip

We are all faceless Puppets,
controlled by marionette strings
from the moment our mind forfeits
to illusions, lies, and other things.
War is a vicious play,
controlled by a faceless Puppeteer,
against the backdrop of a burning flag
instilling us with fear.
But who controls the Puppeteer?
I see the strings on him.
I see the man behind the flag
and lights are growing dim.

I do not know?
A Sonnet begets life.
Joy, her child, leaves her womb,
bliss that transcends the tomb
and dulls the Reaper's scythe!
Ah! Joy belittles strife;
delight, as from bedrooms
(without impassive gloom),
makes mother of a wife.
When bards compose, ardent
wax the virgin Sonnets
with their pens: eloquent
the more, beauty begets
desire; then makes pregnant
with Joy which ne'er forfeits.

Italian Sonnet
my finks cant be bought
See i wrote finks instaead of thinks
but this is just thought a
played with a thought that
made the devil
crawl and in fouetus
positiong globes systematically
GPS system
thats system system
sorry chuckles drift in chuckled groups
in the mire darks
oil slipped blacks
where lenghth
isn't as important as the drop
down to the next line with me
one won now own
my words no
i give them freely
and gone forfeits the unknown

Time slips away
Briskly and fast,
Change comes to slay
On time at last.
Touch feels forlorn
Ooze of sad tears,
Dusk forfeits morn
Borne by mad fears.
Change kills old joy
As brisk strokes fall,
Fate cancels ploy
To flush yet all.
Note end season
Where age plays tag,
No good reason
Can halt last lag.
Time for time here
To swallow slack,
Massive the fear
That follows lack.

Bipedal beings moving with
extra emotional thrust
Triangular sight triggers
kinetic causality —
Death forfeits life
An attached third arm
goes to the concealed side
Legal modifications
make for cybernetic relations
Metal and flesh merge,
inseparable
since their hunter moon birth
Tripod creatures
who pass through the smoke
of the atmospheric burn
The third arm
teaches the symbiotic host
how to cancel the metallic consequences
of the fatal revolution turn
