sleep six hours useful are their
wool milk meat and dung

My scars look like stripes
I am almost a tiger
Her fingers caress my furs
Like brushes on unfinished paintings
And she laughs like a whip...

Tanned furs and leines clothe their hairy backs.
Hoard of mead guzzling men eat turkey legs for snacks….
in skirts and medieval fanny packs....

Used abused
never reconciled the lam
the flee a trip 

an heart pristine
to love all
and not a pelt

as diligent 
I brush my furs
and watch the wild....

white corals around
landscapes sparkle in pure white ---
adder snakes creep on creepers 

white furs and sponges 
ornament the environs ---
white fox innocently blinks

Quietly among the shade there lay another of the young gone astray
Tempted by the caress and whisper of the deadly mistress Belladonna

Tricks and traps splayed by ghostly furs
Continue to lead innocence to their graves
In efforts to transform the predators into prey...

Ziggy, wild at heart
His claws in everything including my fake furs
Scat! He’ll dart

Give him catnip
Now my happy kitty just purrs
A tip

for cats
that scratch up yurs
Keeps

Ziggy, wild at heart
My happy kitty just purrs and
Sleeps

The woman wore her faux fox hat with an air of elegance and pride
I am used to real furs, my daddy is a dealer, and he shows me each hide
She acts with a touch of snobbery, which I think is totally amusing
If she could see animals turned into pelts, her vanity would be confusing....

Playing with Magnet
It's my habit
My pen always has a magnet
Sticking to it's pocket

Through the woods I run
Having so much fun
My buddy magnet
Not leaving my side

Catching all the iron fur
As a feed
To my magnet sheep
Iron furs don't leap

At the end of the day
They sleep on hay
I want to keep them forever with me...

Blistering and scorching sands
  Land of the hushed and crushed hands
Up the creepy furs clasping 'round
  Ebbing scraped sand of ants' mound

Mortars of the deep and steamy skies
  O'er peals and dreamy flies
Off the reef passerine of stormy glides entreat
  New leaf flit, strength above my feet...

Sunsets tweak, marvels at its peak...

Yellow petals shroud the glens in buttery bloom,

                                 concealing from the sun a shadowed gloom;


                                                             hapless furs,

                                                             get the curse;

                             beneath the bush feasts the fanged coil of doom!...

Animal antics






Lazy Koalas for hours on trees would rest
patience of crazy people is put to test,
Open eyes, chew some eucalyptus leaves
then climb furthermore for a sound sleep,
Cute teddy bears, their grey furs grace,
blessed be to embrace their slug and laze!

Dream catcher made of turtle shell
Elemental magic, soul bringer, dream walker
Enlightens papoose, savoring his knowing smile.

Grandfather Shaman feeds the fire
Whose pleasure to warm is well-known in teepees.
Tribal spirit faeries hide in furs 

Braves will return tomorrow 
Hopefully from a good hunt.
Innocent ones sleep soundly,
Unworried, on small pox blankets....

In an hour a thousand pass
Doctors, lawyers, truck drivers
Small and fat,
A straggly cat.
Six ladies in elegant furs
Two little boys chasing curs
A tottery, old man with a cane
The same scraggly cat again.
The local newsboy laden down
Big and small,
A runaway ball,
The corner cop awaiting the strike
Five o'clock, the rush hour jam
Wondering who I am
What I'm doing--...

BABY BOOM BAM

balding oaks — tires blend Autumn leaves crisp notes.
the full foliage of pines spritz the lane in Christmas furs.
picture perfect stroll, auto snapshot arranged in year’s portfolio.
baby boom bam — colors come alive — cheerful scene
no longer rests in New England...baby’s born in the South too.

By the fireside in the evening
,with my darling warm and true
hear the wicked wind ablowing
can it be he knows of you?

Wrapped in furs 
from hunting seasons
in the past  here in these hills,
I remember blue eyes glinting
as he focused on his kills

terror traces every heartbeat 
when I ponder on your fate
how the human heart can
quickly turn from glowing 
love to hate....

The finer things in life are not material
Cannot be measured by silver and gold,
But have an intrinsic, everlasting value
Like contentment and happiness, I'm told.
One cannot buy with money these things
While possessions can be comforting,
Like fine cars, elaborate furs, and rings
Only love and joy inner satisfaction brings.

my heart my breath of dreams
a drool from the corner of of my lips
I wake on an empty bed 
to discover my worth to feed the furs around me
a cat purring on my chest not looking for a rump 
early morning and the small dog under blankets
I am the reborn virgin to be discovered and convoked
to share nothing.
the love long past I am glad you are gone brother
as they thought we were sibling....

You've missed a bit, there on your chin.
Thin reeds of river grass and fish—
cheeks-deep in roe, mud-covered twin,
you've missed a bit.

Let's bumble on to spawning's pitch
eat salmon-seasoned trout—with quince, 
furs drenched in entrails glazey drip...

I long forgave your glutton sin,
big Grizz, I swear there is no hitch,
just time enough to feast with friends
you've missed a bit.

If verse could be fragmented unto reasons; these seasons..
Faith speaks of parables; not always understood ? Twas a time
Screams seemed their Psychedelic Furs; breaking away, yet isn't she
Pretty in pink ? Get on with the joke and say; rather, it's a beautiful day....
Baby's black balloon takes her high; she almost fell amid that hole in their eyes ?

COPLA TREINTA : This Bad Guy World

The same goes for the Big Fat Cats
Their body-guards aren’t going to die
When boss-man dies

Big Fat Cats burn best with tummy fats
Kittens best keep distance not nigh:
Don’t become fries

When Good Guys knock on Elysée
President of Heaven answers:
Apt courtesy

Good Bad Guys with much dough they say
Turn Bad Bad vile with stolen furs:
Angel bribe fee
