fallen colored leaves
tell tales in nature’s hostel
short term residents

bare naked hostel
consumed by the flames of lust —
her existence moot

Hospitality’s nest 					
Humanity’s domain 
Harmony, its nature                        			
Happiness, its address
Hostel, no match for it
House is brick and mortar						
Home is heaven on earth...

Apostle Who Was A Fossil

In a sundry ways we had known an apostle,
Who turned out to be a terrible old fossil;
Often off wall;
Name was Paul,
When you told him he would become hostel.

What we will possess
access to all assesses
about obsesses

what we have possessed
access to what is assessed
have often abscessed

by a thing passes
ate pancakes with much molasses
now passing gasses

Docile Apostle Who Became Hostile

did know of docile
Trump won was told by apostle
We became hostel...

O'er on the Prairie Meadow postures
my quietus Bed & Breakfast Inn
Where there is no granduer pasture
and the tones of  travelers leer weary
until they consider and decide to come in.
Welcome take refuge;we're fixed cozy & cheery
an invitation for repose & long overdue rest 
for the many eyes that oft weigh so bleary
we safekeep and are considered the very best!

Hostel
In the remote 
Demesne was the hidden 
Erstwhile encounter place for two
Odd tourists that meet in the bucolic 

Efflorescence of a furtive
Dalliance with signs of
Death redolent
Behind

A text 
Message was the
Harbinger of the sad
Epiphany that announces a
The propinquity of a tragedy

The despised man hanged up taking
Serendipity of
Ephimeral 
Idyll

The Undisputed



 I usually prevail when mostly other have doubts,

 as my hostel rival friends taunt, boo and shout,

 when they know my mind is focus on that title bout.

 I took the stubborn champ to the limit with a reserve

 of deadly impact of fresh crushing blows therefore

 had the ruthless undefeated champ dazed, shocked,

 and lay resting looking at my dancing toes as

 I exit to go ending the big show.

Battery hens
Caged in and made to try and fit in
Give us a break
Freedom is scarce

The world aghast
Nothing but routine, disordered order and disappointment 

Imagine rain clouds moving past
Pretty for outsiders 
But inside is dark, full of woe

Normal is not normal
Life, unimaginable by workaholics and city goers

Carry on with your day
Amidst the pain
Find joy
Amongst the sorrow and disorientation 

Stay in tact
Let go, but moving on is unnecessary...

The forest music plays
A haunting tune,
Vibrating softly
All around the countryside.
The fragrance of the spruce
Exuding joy,
Combine with the scent
Of the mighty magnolia
Now in full bloom.

Darkness falls.
We trudge a path
Towards a lake.
The peach-hued moon shines brightly.
Peace reigns.
We shelter in a hostel.
Besides a window.
The glitter of the moon
Shines across the placid waters.
All is calm.
A room is available.
What better way to spend the night?...

I have horse and cars, and two yachts in the bay, 
You see I am richer than you.

I own my own house, and I do holiday,
You see I am richer than you.

I have a nice flat and a color t.v,
You see I am richer than you.

I live in this hostel and now I'm debt free,
You see I am richer than you.

I've been given warm clothes and my meal, I can pay!,
You see I am richer than you.

I found some clean water, I'll survive this day,
Right now I feel richer than you....
