Ones ego flattered

As if it mattered

It's inane and all in vain

Once ashes scattered...

The inane
The profane
The insane
The mundane

We top off our water
How severely it fills our glass...

Modern
Barren
Inane
Nothing; 

Modern land is barren everywhere
Futile, desert, inane, nothing here....

All that we retain
We must maintain
So we should refrain
From the inane
So we can sustain
And remain
Without blame...

Ego holds on to objects of desire
Yet we do know, we must exhale
We play inane games until we tire
Free at last, fears no longer assail...

We might as well stamp license plates
Government work makes us inmates
When assigned tasks inane
In asylums insane
We'll search for retirement dates...

the children all cheer

there will be no indoor recess

hooray rain they yell

glad to be inside

watching their inane U-tube

indoor children now...

inane mind games anchor us here
ego desires, mirrored by fear 
fickle yet, is our attention
unstable orientation 
we have driven ourselves to tears

Limerick : Once the UN wore a carnation

Once the UN wore a carnation
Now in the shade looks like damnation
Halls echo inane talk
House for rent at New York
Is UN ever on vacation ?

Cletus O'Toole was a hopeless recruit

   Cletus cared for the army not one hoot

      He was the sergeants bane

         And deemed their rules inane

            He was asked to leave and given the boot...

I’ve danced in a clowning jig,
Bells on my nimble toes,
Askew on my head, a wig,
Smile painted over my woes.

I’ve clapped in a rhythm inane---
Jumped in my floppy clothes…
My grease-paint dissolved in rain…
While tear-drop insanity flows....

This verse may be inane,
Male versus female brain,
Women cook food, wash skids, and do bins,
Men focus on their own dick things,
Football, porno, beer and pies,
Anything higher is a surprise!
Then they head off to sleep,
Some males do not keep!...

Why peoples
of all kinds
rally eagerly
to festivals and fetes
crowd temples and churches
to celebrate any 
wondrous cause
in joyous applause
Then see them gather
with the same harmony
as they rush to their
inane demise
in times of wars
in opposite mores...

just plain
insane

President Trump: inane, bird-brained dude
Twitters and tweets: just plain insane, rude

'Tis noted that some media at times express divisive and jaundiced views!

Hence, such inane twaddle has reputedly become known as fake gnus!

(Written with considerable tongue in cheek and with profuse apologies
to the innocent African antelope known as a gnu!)...

Mere anarchical obstinacy
Is their sad anthem all over;
Stubbornness steeped in lunacy
Is their sole claim to fame. 

Who can stand their inane guises,
Their thoughtless mouthings tolerate?
Verbiage for verbiage’s sake is their vibe;
Sheer affection for baseless hate.

BODILESS

bold angels
block and shape
their lips eclipse
inane words cloud
tangle entwined

pristine alphabets
peroxide prose
silver currents
of the unheard

gold…
goldfish
goldring
goldthing

parades of perfect peace

A sub human waste dump named Pence
Has thoughts that defy common sense 
And who wants this chump?
The assinine Trump
Who thinks with his rump so immense

What is something uproarious?
Her plan to be victorious
Who must to us speak
Since democracy’s Greek?
Hilarious Clintorius!...

Rain drops falling from the sky
Puddles are sure formed
I desire to splash in them
Surely a bit charmed
I stand under rain
Beautiful the water is
But is quite inane

Cat and mouse game, fear and desire
Woe, thought spirals inane
God waits for us until we tire
Lower mind to rest lain

Oh hermit, just be still
Let God fulfil His will
With love, voids within fill

Our claim to fame
Cat and mouse game

Listen to poem:

You imbibe the diatribe,
quaffing the jibe for a bribe
to remain silent and acquiescing. 

Struck mute to suit
your unfussed cowardice
in failing to speak up,
when you know the throng is wrong like you
to remain silent, 
a seething flock in shock.

Inertia, inherent, 
in the same inane inaction....

excuse me to say
what i write and
what i say

expressive
thoughts
are often

forgotten
or forgiven
when a poet

or a lover
speaks true
what is discovered

to be thought
insane or
inane

but i don't
stagger or
swagger

when i
speak or
keep my word

I love you
I Love you
I Love You...
