Short Frenetically Poems

Flitting furtively from 
family member to 
family member
like a truly bumbling bee
frantically, frenetically flying 
from flower to flower
frustrated at his failure
to discern the nectar of love
amongst the resentments,
the caretaker drone
strays unwittingly
into the mouth
of the family dog,
saving the others

The nephrite syndrome.
I will not change the?
calculus, to find the truth
of the flesh.

The paid price of chemistry
will make history. If  
you can stop the blitz?
of the replicas.

It ends like a fire, without 
ashes. The limbs check
the fall. Across the river
an isle erupts.

The prisoner at last escapes,
from the procession of profanities.
You are finally liberated,
releasing the lost poem.

Music
is a sweet spring shower for romantics.
For the weary, it is a soothing stream
flowing sublimely through one’s soul.
It is a pond or lake, reflecting joy.
For those in search of thrills,
its waves pound frenetically to lighthouse strobe lights
across an ocean’s roar in the night.
Like water, music takes many different forms.
Find your pleasure; let it wash over you!
