Short Libation Poems

Laminated libidos
Liquidate lovelorn longings
Lunar Lycanthropes...

PARALLEOGRAMATIC

Four sober quadrilateral equations
were quartered around a rectangular occasion.
No less than a quadrifarious derivation,
are ever admitted to the annual rectangular without libation!...

When the earth moved in libation to the skies,
her soul is as lively as the sun,
with invigorations of praise.

To dance with her is to know her life  force again,
after the rain replenished her thirst....

Partake slowly the dark frothy drink
Chase one beloved with every nerve
Raise your hand in obedience to One
Then pour a libation in the early dawn
Tommorow will be yesterday is gone
Delight in today a gift from your Lord...

soon
close
almost

a month
her cycle
repeats itself

not in birth
but rebirth
wax and wane

the full moon
takes out
a red tide

June is 
the strawberry moon
and the honey moon

Salute
drink mead
for honey sweet

and red
wine for
the blood...

When gray clouds gather
Eyes look to the sky with disdain
Dreading the anticipation of rain
I welcome the wetness
Praying for a storm
Cleanse the earth
Cleanse my soul
All impurities must go
Too complacent with arid conditions
To even know we’re dehydrated 
We all could use some libation...

sweet lavender lips
I heard it through the grapevine
transform from sweet grapes

sweet lavender lips
I heard it through the grapevine
libation of wine

sweet lavender lips
I heard it through the grapevine
intoxicating -----X----- beverage

Sycophancy

He waved at us
Such a good fellow
Or so we thought
Now the eclipse is gone

And faces now brighter
We saw trails
He was the one
He that took our position

And drank our portion
Of the libation
Given to us all
Yet he calls himself a brother

If such is brotherhood
Shall I stay brother less?...

Another after christmas party has come and gone 
The party was wild went all night long 
Plenty of libation and a lot of dancing 
Elves were singing and reindeer were prancing 
The next morning all appeared dead 
As Santa dragged the deer out of bed 
One look at Rudolf and everyone knows 
Just why he has such a big red nose...

Please use with the utmost moderation
As this is no normal libation
But if you must throw caution to the wind
Please do so with a most coherent friend
It tastes a bit better when sugar is added
Drink plenty of water or your hangover will be rabid
Last but not least, there's one more thing
Don't drink this before an early morning...

Like a dose of penicillin,
beverage extraordinaire,
it warms you when you're chillin',
just relaxin' in your chair.

In times of tribulation
when you cannot see the light,
choose the tried and true libation, 
a brew'll set you right.

The healing virtues of this potion
must not be misconstrued,
every Englishman'll tell ya
that a cuppa'll fix your mood!...

LOVE
*****

Love, true, for forty-eight years, ours!
Lived in harmony, blissfully.
Lucky, no, planed, all sweet, no sours!
Lips whisper, "I love you, truly".
Little things grow into pleasure!
Life, we both take at our leisure!
Libated, love sealed with flowers.

The lady in the lake
satiated no more
sends a thousand wavelets
to worry the shore

Motion and music her
special blend
beneath the baton
of the conductor wind

A soothing libation
was my sunset intention
destroyed by a blackbird's
red-winged invention

So much for Happy Hour,
(and if you find it believable
the wind is as reckless
as Evel Kneivel)...

...for my fellow Englishmen


Lanky penicillin,
beverage extraordinaire!
Warms you when you're chillin',
relaxin' in your chair.

In times of tribulation
when you cannot see the light,
choose the tried and true libation -
a brew will set you right!

The healing virtues of this potion
must not be misconstrued;
it's every Lanky's notion
that a cuppa'll fix your mood!...

Draw back the curtains at your wake
To welcome in October
And heartily libation take
Lest the old crows find you sober

Invite your fond familiars in
Each cat and rat and magpie
Ignite your jack-o’-lantern grin
And kiss the moon at midnight

Fling far and wide your festive gold
Let no leaf go unvarnished
Stoke hearth and heart against the cold
Lest silver linings tarnish....

Grind the beans and start the pot.
Listen to it percolating - Smell
Drifting into the kitchen, ahhhh.
Patiently waiting to wake up, hot
Steaming brew. Milk, sugar in cup.
Two morning drinks. Afternoon, a
Little libation, eases into the head.
Bingo - Coffee, Kahula, Brandy, 
Whipped cream. Yummy, just right.
When I was working, I would drink
My coffee from morning until night....

Just why he has such a big red nose

April 6—Beverage, libation, liquid…

Daily Ritual Drinks Drink


in the morning
I drink a cup
of snarling hot coffee
while watching the news.

in the afternoon 
I shift to tea
either earl gray
or herbal tea.

a day without Earl Gray
is not a good day.

at sunset 
I drink red wine
with my wife.

as the evening
shifts into night
I drink rum 
or whiskey.

to eat the day
right.

The coffin sways;
The people grumbles;
Popping out drinks to libation,
Pacifying with the ancestors to receive the deceased;
As so is thought of the content in the coffin 
Unwilling to depart into the grave:
The coffin sways, and what is thought dead,
Has awakened from a long lasting coma;
Kicking and shouting so loud, but no one could possibly hear.
The coffin rest on holds of the family: swaying, and who cares....

Friends, I thought I would post this one again for a little pre-Christmas chuckle!

Another after christmas party has come and gone 
The party was wild went all night long 
Plenty of libation and a lot of dancing 
Elves were singing and reindeer were prancing 

The next morning all appeared dead 
As Santa dragged the deer out of bed 
One look at Rudolf and everyone knows 
Just why he has such a big red nose...

Please strike
the piñata
i have made for you
out of the  stripes of paper
and the glue,

In  the midnight hour
i have labored long
on this plump pig
of collaged letters.
with  corrugated metaphors
Sightless Find the weakest point.

let that guide 
your hand
the transparent rose
cellophane
wrapped candy
shall flow
in libation of sound
pour down
like a quirky rainstorm
bouncing 
like silver
coins
on the sidewalk
of your mind....

Panacea 
what is your form?
are you liquid?
a libation?

are you solid 
as a rock in time?
where shall we 
find the key
to your relieving 
balm?

oh chalice filled
with bright red wine
of peace,
why does the bottom 
lead to lost relief?

and if thy name is 
love 
then truly be
a love that even
lowly ones 
like me

can take back home 
and when we
close the door
sweet Panacea
you'll be ours once 
more....

after a few drinks
one cold night
the Rev. Mr Culpepper
left his club
in the eastern part of
Jasper County Mississippi

on his walk home
he was taken sick
and stopped at the residence
of a dear lady friend
the widow mary banes

there hie took
a dose or two
maybe even three
of medicine
followed by
some liquid
libation

here he suddenly died
in a manner of minutes

his disease
was found to be
bilious colic...

Until I met my lucious lover
I was ambivalent about having another.
My last affair was bittersweet.
My arcane pain I kept discreet.

This one however is quintessence.
My desires awoken from quiescent.
Although I'm flamboyant, he makes me shy.
An intercessor I'll need, I know a guy.

He'll tell him how tactile I can be.
Sweet, loveable, passionate me.
If unsuccessful, I will consume libation.
Become an oblation by immolation....
