The Donald stood atop Trump Tower
Counting his income by the hour
When it would go down
He'd hold back a frown
And when it was lost he'd glower...

Nostalgia is alluring flower
           but empty of freshness
          by far is all resentful glower
          up close it's just bitterness ......

Listen to poem:

Hey Alice! Have you,
been smoking the grub's brew?
Think you are a butterfly,
perched on a flower?
Cop the glower,
of livid fire-breathing dragonfly!...

Sandra Bullock did overpower
Chelsea Handler in her shower
And as she slapped poor Handler
She really was a man handler
But that just made Chelsea glower...

The old world is dying, 
And the new world struggles for birth,
It is then survival in the jungle,
The monstrous tussle,
Just for the fittest!
My oath to glower at life.

Glower at the splendor of earth
Feast your eyes, to the show of clouds
Feel the richness of air
Get a load of the beauty, in the sky
Can you see the strength
Of the Lord above
The Supremacy of His Love...

While gazing down from the Rockefeller Tower
My girlfriend and I soon began to glower
While surveying Central Park we then thought
How much could we get for it if we bought
Trying to figure that out took over an hour...

On the occasion of the Westbury Cement Works tower being demolished ...


Farewell then Westbury cement works tower,
No longer over south wilts will your presence glower,
Once you were used by Lafarge
But now you'll be gone, just like Farage....

A hole
An evil
A dark little dream.

A tear drop.
A sob,
A knife with a gleam.

All pain
All sorrow,
All left with a blow.

Of the evil
And the darkness
That we all know.

I see
It now,
In the darkness brow

While we sit,
And listen,
And wait for the horror

And cower 
Under the haze
Of darkness's glower.

And pray he doesn't take us too....

Full Trust I have in my power
Now formidable like a tower,
Before foes to not cower
Like the confronted by a prowler 
Or an infant in a bower …

Full freshness in my power:
I know in the next one hour
Things shall cease to be sour:
A new comeliness of Rose Flower,
Not a thing to make me glower;
An Early Widow for a dower…

A Pillar Trust in my Power!...

Open oblivion
Awaken Armageddon			
Begin ending
Start sending
Rapture
Souls captured
Revelations
Starvation
Genocide
Will you be there?
By my side
Will you walk with me?
Be my guide
The truth you speak
Comes out in Greek
I’m blind
Help me see
Fate and destiny
Storm clouds bother
Angrily they glower
Temptation leads farther
Goodbye father
I hope for light after...

We strolled for an hour in a rain shower 
My face looked quite sour, I felt very dour
You found a wild flower I didn’t glower!
By a tall tower we found a bower
I laid our picnic for us to devour
You kissed me with power I didn’t cower!

I didn’t wake up dead this morning,
my back is no worse than yesterday.
A few customary moans and groans
as I reach the breakfast table.
My spouse is as cheerful as ever,
she hops around like a song sparrow
while I glower.
A cup of dark Columbian
I have to admit that those ordinary miracles
Ordinary miracles are on their job
and I am thusly blessed to be
Gods special little guy....

ELIZABETHAN LOVE PASTICHE

I will pluck  Parmenter from your orchard bower
And taste it’s Ambrose and the scented flower
There we shall pass a brief but blessed hour
While I sup your essence sweet piquant and sour
Lest passing time should look on us to glower
And curse us so no more we may have power
To circumvent the fates and they devour
Our consecrated rapture that they scour

You can’t visit during working hours
And along take exposed sweets and flowers!
Why do we meet plain virulent showers
On persons who’d hurt the working hours?

Heads would at rule-breaking callers glower,
Red anger permit to reach its tower.
Lover of cake you can’t calm with flour;
He might not leave you long in his bower.

If the price to pay was famished lion
Would you visits pay your will iron?...

I didn’t wake up dead this morning,
my backs no worse than yesterday.
A few customary moans and groans
as I reach the breakfast table.
My spouse is as cheerful as ever,
she hops around like a song sparrow
while I glower silently.
After a cup of dark Columbian
I have to admit that the day
might turn out okay.
Ordinary miracles are on their job,
and I am thusly blessed to be
Gods special little guy....

Indubitably there is one emotion
By the time I feel its first nettle
I am at the point of explosion
It is already too late to settle

I become immediately apoplectic
Before the green-eyed monster
Is validated as authentic
Thus exaggerating it asunder 

I find this is so flabbergasting
My face turns red and I glower
Jealousy for me is most suggesting
That my sanity has been devoured

The real woman cries for flower.
A handed one makes her tower.
The much uplifted that hour!
Giver has but lent her power;
Just nothing would the day sour.

A woman, then free to glower,
If you'd promised her a flower
And it she saw not next hour;
As a replacement Bakers Flour...

Such a woman could make one cower:
For more than one grieving hour
Tongue-lashing men with full power?

"Go and sit down on your bower!"...

Deep inner turmoil rising in layers of morose fog
Eternally she seems to scream putrid nothings
Put your mind to rest in somnambulist serenity
Reaching forever to only waylay breath
Efface my eyes does she of beatific maudlin
Sallow spirit filled with lackadaisical laughter 
She steals away grins and gifts glower
Inane is the patron of life she echoes
Onerous is this bombination of melancholy 
Needless are we the companions of she...

The watusi came into my life when I wanted to be down
She shook her bootie and promptly turned me around.
I did not want to buy in, so she tossed me on the ground.
Then began playing a jazzy up-beat kind of sound.
Stop it! I yelled with a glower; my face horribly frowned.
She laughed with delight and spun me quickly around.
I found myself dancing; my joy was immediately found.
I am so very grateful for the watusi who came swiftly around....

In a dark room a candle's flame
dispels darkness not for its fame
self sacrifice for others--
life of flower is just the same
spreading fragrance not for its name
but for the name of Father.

Let this life be like a flower
candle's flame in the darkest hour
put some smile on other's face
help all to be even glower
drench them with your joyfull shower
share their pain with warm embrace.

First rain this Fall came this morning.
What a shower!!!
Ushering in the new season,
With a scowl, and a glower.

Cool was the word, when the rain was finally gone,
The air smelled clean and crisp
In the still, early dawn.

A sweater felt snug in the early morning breeze.
Just right for a stroll,
Through the freshly fallen leaves.

Fall brings a promise of good times yet to come.
And a gentle reminder that life, like Summer, soon is gone....

Sleep Away Thy Days Of Strife

Sleep away thy days of strife 
Dream once more of a better life
Hope springs eternal we’ve been told
But the wolves at the door grow more bold
Pray spring wilt end the winters glower
And return once more the flowery bower
That once with butterflies arrayed 
Now seem mostly gone on summer days
And nightingales rarely sing in the evening hour
So sleep away thy days of strife and 
Dream once more of a better life...
