For depression found a cure.

True Change

He promised in speeches this thing called change
Our lives as we know it he'd rearrange
We follow like in a trance
Who knew that he meant like France?
Saying "Oui oui monsieur" feels kinda strange

Monsieur Misery

Pleasure is ephemeral, but at least misery shares some of this same quality.
And as we know, misery loves company.
Don’t we all, misery? Company. We would all love some company.
But that’s the misery of it,
What we love is often out of reach,
Hard to snag,
Pleasurable, and thus
Ephemeral.

Fairy Tale

once upon a time
they used to say
the French were
very rude

with the 
attitude 
if you 
can't

speak 
French
don't
come 
to France 

but i was in Greece
when in passing
a French tourist
said to me

bonjour monsieur
i in turn replied
he me parole past
francais madam

Was to build to a climax higher

By Dames de Paris for perfection

Premium Member Tale of a Dove

    She opened the box
       a dove flew out
    nestling down on her shoulder

    A twinge of pain shot through her
       sore conscience all a-whir 
    When was the last time
       she’d called on Monsieur … 

    The dove flapped her wings
       then flew away
    A note fell from her beak
      ‘Rendezvous ~ a year from today’

Monsieur Xenos

The hands moved in Surveillance
Striking with close encounters
Hold the stiff banana love
In firm grips to kiss and peel:

Limbs squeeze in Execution
Pumping member draws nectar,
From within the two petals:
Stay clear for they are the x-rated.    

'Xenos' the plundering Greek;
Naked without erotica
Dives into the wet sea:
Sex loves these scabbard walls.

Warning

An Attempt to betray the one you hold dear.
Turns the tides on you good sir I fear.
Truth behold your chances are slim.
Energy its self will not bend to your whim.
Monsieur I bid thee to not waste your breath.
Perchance the betrayer become the betrayed.
Time and time again you will be constrained.
Endless times I have seen it before.
Detest before you go too far.

Limericks croises : Once a Boxer met Poodle on leash

Once Monsieur walked Poodle in broad street
Madame laid up after nightlong feat
Poodle tripped in full glee
In Paris rue carefree
Monsieur took note of neighbours who cheat
 
Saw Mademoiselle walk Boxer on leash
Boxer lick-jumped Poodle with relish
Monsieur’s leash entangled
Mademoiselle’s hose bungled
Rush hour traffic stopped to let dogs enmesh/unleash.

A Sundae For Balzac

Your treat, Monsieur de Honoré,
a sundae, hot fudge,
an iced cream dream 
sans bureaucratic nightmares, 
those trance-like states
of oh, so good men;
the static office-men
who barely skimmed life's
sweetness--that hot fudge sundae 
nestled deep in the heart of all. 
Time to eat up. 
"Look! Monsieur de Balzac has already finished his!" 




The inspiration for this poem came after reading 
Monsieur Honoré de Balzac's novel, The Bureaucrats.

Monsieur Grasshopper (Silly Verse)

One leg two legs
Hop to the beat
Never mind what others say
I sometimes like to cheat

On the tree I like to stretch 
and bask in color green
Yet on a branch I simply doze 
in dismal color brown.

My puny size and fleet of foot
 confuse people’s eyes
They never know where I am at
 So illusive  I am.

I sing sweeter than  cicadas
In an octave higher too
Even birds look at me with envy
Except the cuckatoo.

Heh, heh ….. Boo.!

Premium Member Monsieur L'Vampyre Wet Dreams

Monsieur L'Vampyre - WET DREAMS
Why dost thee take the heart of me
and leave alone that part of me
that dreams of you
and makes me do
the things love makes me do for thee;
why takest thee the best of me
and leaveth all the rest of me
to wonder why
to feign; to die;
in want of what will never be;
why maketh you the death of me
and taketh all the breath of me,
to toss and turn
to want and burn;
and wake from dreams, contentedly.

"monsieur..."

Loyal… I saw and built the ground
For Journeymen walk the pillars round
A Maypole covered where played the clown
Ring Master stays… and the Rings are sound.
Elegant bows on the trunks of the proud…
Removed for the show and thrown outside
and there in the street a rose petal strides…
Making sweet beats right before our eyes.

”... the Jesus spoke in Parabola
and Parabolic I so told ya…
It’s a reflection of proportion
and a distortion of the Parable.
How dare.able. are we? ...” ;)~
