a gabion if only the little girl knew
she'll be julius caesar and no baguette in her basket
only stones to distract the picnic of dreams long gone
Gaius Julius Caesar
was not a real people pleaser
he tried to set himself up as a monarch
but never made it past the Ides of March
‘Cry “havoc!” and let slip the dogs of war‘
(Julius Caesar, Act 3, Scene 1)
Let’s cry peace and not release the dogs!
An emperor named Julius Caesar
Used to pluck his fine hairs with a tweezer --
When media just giggled
Caesar wriggled and wiggled --
Said: "My wife hates them ~ I try to please her
MONTH NINE
September was month seven in the early Roman calendar
But was ninth after two more months that Julius Caesar added
Starting school is timely to understand and reconcile the name
Should mortification
be justification
for your fortification
Then you need
a long vacation
'Judgment, thou art fled to brutish beasts...'
Marc Antony's 'Funeral Oration' in Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar"
‘Beware the Ides of March.‘
(Julius Caesar, Act 1, Scene 2)
a week from Saturday is the Ides of March
perhaps I will stay home by myself
better keep an eye on the dogs though
they might have heard of Julius
and get some strange ideas
August our sweltering month number 8
Named for Augustus Caesar, a god, but wait!
July already praised Julius Caesar, my heaven
Thus month number 5 became month number 7
Poor October who should be month number 8
Became month number 10, such a sad fate
JULIUS CAESAR Act 3 scene 2
Friends Romans countrymen lend me your ears
for Sonneteer William Shakespeare
who impresses all who doth come near
Holding rhyme & cadence ,so dear.
plays in verse also were his poetic thing
Thus making our English lingo sing.
CLEOPATRA
Cleopatra ! Queen of Egypt : Historic black beauty.
Erudite, Great politician, most charming , alluring cutie.
Her exotic charisma with great magnetic attraction.
Whelmed Julius Caesar to tie up romantic relation.
‘Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears: I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.’
(Julius Caesar, Act 3, Scene 2)
Antony was happy to bury Julius~ Cleopatra was now his
All of those ears~ must have been a lot of odd looking Romans
My question is~ would Antony give them all back?
‘The fault, dear Brutus, lies not within the stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings.’
(Julius Caesar, Act 1, Scene 2)
Drat, all the time
I spent reading horoscopes~
I can’t blame my problems on:
Leo, Virgo, Capricorn, Sagittarius,
Cancer, Gemini, Aries, Taurus, Libra,
Aquarius, Pisces and Scorpio.
Here it has been my fault
all along!
She, Queen of Egypt, he, Ceasar of Rome,
Together, their lands united a sea,
Their fusion less capitol, more a home,
A son born to them, though rule, not to be,
Yet, her debut in Rome breathed an epic,
Whilst there, Brutus and his clan, did tragic,
End murdered, Gaius Julius Caesar,
Self-death, Cleopatra Philopator.

valiant conquerors all
in history’s annals they stand tall
Yet while the back story
may lack fame and glory
it’s not to be ignored…
At home, the ‘little woman’ rules the roost
So, don’t forget, ‘heroes of today’ ~
to thank the lady by whom you were produced

glorious and tall i stood...
you could lie and say i was king
and still tell the truth
i defeated Attila the Hun
and outwitted Alexander the great
upstaged Julius Caesar.
i crawled through the dunes of Arabia
and splattered them with bandit blood
i took the lives of many
that my people may be safe another day
i fought bravely for my country
and now, Valhalla awaits.
*i know the history is incorrect, but its figurative.
Ancient Greeks extracted a dye from shellfish
and purple became each potentate's wish.
For the rare purple matched amethyst rings
a jewel craved by emperors and kings.
Julius Caesar donned purple, not red
and the Roman Senate ordered him dead.
For purple’s worn by kings, not dictators
and Romans who wore purple, were traitors.

A name means nothing
on the battlefield.
"Julius Caesar"
Test of conscience:
tainted with guilt
— behind woven brocade
luxury silk ties.
Public praise,
laurel wreath.
Ridiculous reasoning.
A cobbler may balance his trade, the mending of soles
With that of a mender of souls, exchanging roles
With a man of the cloth, making two Roman officials
Wroth, in the opening scene of Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar'
Yet when barefoot you walk, on cobblestone streets
It's quite hard to focus on spiritual needs
So there is, indeed, a connection between a man of the cloth and a cobbler
Perhaps more than between an elected official and a squabbler
