Meaningless

Sans actor,
there is no theater,
sans gladiator
there is no Coliseum,
 sans audience
there is no spectacle
 without love, 
there is none of that,
and no life...!

Twilight Gladiator

Moral decay 
Night nurses prey or pay 
Dressed in white or gray 
Black and dark night fay 
Freezing hot they fey 
Heavy duty they lay 
Gone to make hay 
While sun slay

Rusty

I am a man who has a
constant taste of fry oil
in his mouth.
Like pond water laden with the
fluid of rotted fauna
I am Rusty, lovelessly satisfied
gladiator of apathetic idealism

The Gladiator

Of my bed every morning out I jump
Ready for the fields of life to go
Armor, sword and spear in hand
Into survival’s arena myself I throw

Beautiful Disaster

Messy hair, flashing eyes 
over emotional battle cries;
Sadistic screams startling spectators,
war paint like a gladiator; 
Ferocity in the veins of a warrior 
Perfect storm, beautiful disaster.

glib gladiator in Gladys Gladiolas

Glandular glib gladiator in Glady’s gladiolas?
glazing glassblowers gleaning gabbiness?
glistening, glittery, glitzy glop glimpsing gladiator?
globular glowworm gloriously gleaming in Glady’s gladiolas.

Glad-He-Ate-Her

Thrust a sword into my gut;
Save me from this mindless rut! 
Armor, shield- an open field 
(To guide my hands with luck) 
One by one 'til all are killed;
Beaten, Bashed, Bested- Struck!

A Warrior

Brave to fight
A symbol of day and night
The true face of light
A glory of might
with the happiness of sight.
A warrior knight
who commands right
victor at all height

Double Whammy Clerihew

Pierce Brosnon is divine
Of male species so sublime
Sky blue eyes and peppered hair
Just make me want to bare

He and Russell Crow
Just make me go go go
Gladiator despite the gore
Just makes me want him more!

Man of Virtue

In the arena of vices the man of virtue fell

an intrepid gladiator with God's sword in hand

ready to die was he for all of evil to expel

gallantly fought till evilness had left the land!

In the Arena of Vice

In the arena of vice, the man of virtue fell

Was an intrepid gladiator with God's sword in hand

Ready to die was for all of the evil to expel

Gallantly kept fighting till iniquity left the land!

Crocodile Tears

We had a most horrid schoolteacher,
And us children did all hate her,
She’d shout at us for no real reason,
And threaten to see us later,
She had a dip on a Florida trip,
And was swallowed by an alligator,
But only crocodile tears were shed,
‘Cos we were all just … gladiator!

Roman Sport

Loud crowd surrounding
cheering both for life and death
a cry to appease the Gods
pure entertainment 
for the frenzied mob who seeks
spectacular scenes of sport
death's acrid tang sparks
determination to win
and accept adulation.

The Bride of Frankenstein

Watching dimples three piece proudly strolling past
Another judicial gladiator of theirs to mark these times ?
Silken bunny butts with pom poms short skirts a brief case
Prairie dogs circling his courthouse licking at stains from white....
Cloaks in black robes her pagans silver badge the creature takes it's stand.

Gloved Gladiator

At the sound of the bell,
the boxing arena trembles;
the crowd's maniacal roar
explodes as a thunderclap.

Blood-crazed predators,
these gloved gladiators;
fiercely glaring, rushing,
breathing murderous rage.

Altar of wealth, vanity,
hurried sign of the cross,
hastily mumbling to God
of mercy...a bloodied prayer!

Spring

Worms rotate in a peculiar procession
As spring enters - the conquering gladiator.
Saplings play in the breeze.
Dogs smile at the sun while the wind breathes with sighing despondency.
Falling leviathan blossoms float to the ground from reoccurring trees.
Nature holds us all hostage in her warm embrace; green, urgent, and rampant.

Dogs smile at the sun while the wind breathes with sighing despondency.
Falling leviathan snow flake blossoms, float to the ground from reoccurring trees.

DOUBLE  WAFFLE




Russel Crowe  in metal armor clothing needs sequel  to GLADIATOR  
Schwartzenegger, the all-metal guy, needs sequel  to TERMINATOR

Both could be dressed entirely  in clothing of metal  
And act tough, giving off a lot of hot air to show their mettle,  

From time to time letting off steam.
Both these guys could make a good team

In their  ultimate sequel  movie  -  RADIATOR.

Die Another Day

Live To Die Another Day 
Forced to fight 
The Gladiator Way ...

I killed a woman 
I killed my friend 
We fought one another 
To The End 

I'll never forget
Her kindness in me 
Her selfless sacrifice 
She saved my life 
Do you see 
She trusted in me 
That I  was strong 
To  survive 
To run 
A promise 
Of Liberty 

I  killed a woman 
I killed my friend 
We fought one another 
To The End

Day of Reckoning

Above bleak pastures, A cobalt coliseum: Warriors are unleashed. · Aggressive brave clouds, Battle for the dominance: Vanquishment is vague. · Conquest of power, Clash of divine elements: Battle in the sky. · Sun and clouds collide, On a battlefield landscape: The land prays for reign. · The golden swords pierce, As injured clouds hemorrhage: Pelting the pastures. · With sharp swords of light. The golden gladiator: Obtains victory.
