Who cannot sing
Surely, he is a brilliant tap dancer....

Listen to poem:

Basking on the sun-lit ice.
Walrus mumble filled with hype.
Today I haven't a thing to do
(that's nice)
But fish, butt-wipe, butt you....

morning fog covers
the greenwood’s tame beauty
they seem to mumble
“don’t cry dear lass,”
tomorrow the sunshine
will set us
both free...

Even though at times we would stumble,
Many words mumble and around fumble;
Of self unsure,
Cause and cure;
We had found a way to remain humble;

The mental stumble,
And gastric rumble,
And clumsy fumble,
Uncalled for grumble,
And frequent mumble,
All while you bumble
Through life boldly
And getting oldly....

Habit cures habit
A lie triggers a lie.
Each time that I stumble - 
No more of "God damn it!"
If poems I mumble
I know I'll recover 
And don't fear I'll die!...

Written on coarse coarsely written
Mumble-jumble
Words can’t sway, nor delay
Huh!!! Doctor's note

Don't put your left hand in
don't shake it all about
stand 2 metres away
and mumble lyrics
from beneath the mask we
can never take off
no more space to dance
no time to stop
just is
we are this way...

Who made the print so small?
What did you say? Don't mumble.
Where are my glasses? Who moved them?
When did everyone get so tall?
Please tell me again?
Why can't I live alone?

I just want to go home !...

Bells
with blues
play bent cup dinged;
discordant, dongs and dings.
Soft and raspy tones that mumble,
rings rung as fuzzy rumbles and grumbles,
rather than clear resonate rings.
Sad Bells
Blue

A lady named Jane was really well known
For her ability to mumble and loudly moan
While eating her Wheaties
With beans and wienies
A weird kinda lassie, very strange to the bone

We've become moaners,
Grumpy and groaners,
We talk lots of piffle
We cough, and we sniffle.
We mumble and grumble,
We are not very humble
Sighing and crying
There's no denying
We've become apathetic
That is pathetic...

The sun beats down on my garden's back --
Looking up, I squeeze my eyes tightly
Seeking a cloud that will let down
Her skirts...
I mumble a prayer for moisture
As once-staunch squirrels slump
Their faces drawn, like withered leaves...

Somebody else's ghost
takes her away 
makes her mumble him, although
I think she wants me to hear.

Those are dark
moments when she puts
the mask of memory
over her eyes.

He takes her away.
I watch, an audience 
for a dance, a perverse
romance....

Justice is fist raised
Justice is a statue
Justice is a hollow cry
Justice is a noose
While the poor die and forgotten
The rich are celebrated and remembered
The society claims it has overcome racism
Inside my head,just mumble
Hopelessness...

I am black and I am proud
I have soul and I can be loud
I am brown and I am strong
I can admit when I am wrong
I am kind and I am fine
I love all of mankind
I don't fumble nor mumble 
Nor do I crumble nor tremble
You can say, I was born very humble....

my silence started to mumble
my loneliness started to giggle
there is something in my mind that started to wiggle

feeling so fresh fresh
so new new
the reason no one knew

want to be the same forever
want to b sad never
its only me who understands this better...

The Cane Mutiny

He had but one leg and one eye
and a ship run aground sitting dry
but his cane - still attached
and his limp - unabashed
caused the ladies to mumble – “OH MY”.

We stutter, lisp and clutter
We are not vocal – mute…

We can be choppy, mumble words
Impaired rhythm, be automatic…

Distort our sounds, substitute, omit
Or string together made-up words…

And all impediments forgiven
But God forbid – to tell the Truth!...
