On Shortest Day bright 

our camellia shone pink

alone among the high 

grass lawn as most

locally cannot be sane 

unless their lawns are

shorn of all hope 

as neatness is a trope....

Of all the things I've ever held 
Your hand is quite the sweetest 
It fits so snuggly into mine 
And tingles there in neatness 
As mine tightens so yours does too 
And blends our flesh as one 
Then gentle warmth begins to ooze 
Isn't holding hands so much fun

His sloppy slipshod attitude
Was picked up by both daughters
His son took after his wife
A minimalist who never abided a mess
The son never let the hoarders into his house
Losing touch with his father and his sisters
Choosing neatness and cleanliness over people
Just as his mother had done....

Drawn steadfastly upon my face 
neatness and precision; 
unturned yet quaintly ageless grace 
as I breathe the new dawn.

S-tandard neatness is applied, 
E-rasing the morbid mystery; 
A-trocious ailment is avoided, 
N-astiness is eerie enemy.

G-ruesome grime is washed away, 
R-eliable alcohol stops the menace; 
E-nhanced hygiene kills the germs, 
E-mploying standard
N-eatness.

Smoke lit and it makes that noise.
Hand draws for pen.
And then- it begins.
The device of destruction
leaks black ink.
Blood smudges the page
in neatness. And then
thought come back to
present. Under the cresent,
and smike rises infront of my
eyes. In the outdoors
freezing, but quite not yet.
Light shines down on hand.
But it stays in darkness and this
masacre is not seen....

N-eatness protocol cleans
I-nvisible dirt of the devil; 
K-illing the pandemic plague
K-eeps one from being
I-ll.

G-et neatness protocol
I-nto the glorious victory; 
O-bliterate the vicious
V-irus of morbid mystery.
A-pply the health standard, 
N-icely use the alcohol; 
N-ew normal now employs
I-ts neatness protocol.

My eyes a reflection upon 
the night, a still-life of 
weft black white threads embroidered lace 
of sketched jagged diamonds.

Drawn steadfastly upon my face 
neatness and precision; 
unturned yet quaintly ageless grace 
as I breathe the new dawn.

“You like it black, if I remember, don’t you?”
“Oh no, for I take mine with some sweetness.”
“Two lumps will then do?”
“Oh please make it three for neatness”

While some prefer it with clumps of kindness
Others prefer to take it more bare
Some detest it when it is cooled to sadness
Others have little regard or care

A scalding blackened bitter cup of reality
Is ever a thing for one’s mind to endure
A tickling taste of Sanity
Is something I hope you prefer...
