POISON

Invidious verdancy, a violaceous  poison,
Stains sanguine accord, 
Casting elongated shadows,
Across the geopolitical terrain.

Time For Reflection

Time for reflection

May I not rue, when life draws to an end,
Invidious, mean words which bring distress
Nor sigh, that precious time I did misspend
On frivolous pursuits of happiness.
Rather let warm benevolence hold sway
And solomonic wisdom guide my way.

Nature’s invidious corn
With school, Genius is born!
With crayons of every colour
The World may lose dolour!

Like determined drudges
With gusto he smudges;
On my car, my painted wall
My Credit cards and my all!

***Dedicated to my Grade 1 Son; Elisha, whose crayons leave no walls unturned!

Enchanted Murder

A beauty danced beneath pale moonlight,
While hypnotic song flurried on the breeze,
Distant, the voices tell of magic’s flight,
A heart is caught with such apparent ease,
And leads the self into its deathly plight.

A soul lies dying within grasping flame,
Confusion’s white heat burning at nerve tips,
Invisible fires bring the pain just the same,
The murderous hold a vice like grip,
And jealousy is her invidious name.
