La Dee Da

“No Man Is An Island”
but that was before smart phones
To text and to tweet
technology’s drones 

With ear buds in place
these Stepford’s march on
Virtually connecting
— to what’s already gone

Forever Wet

If no man is an island,
  what can one man be

If no man stands alone,
  to write the words, himself to free

If never beats that distant drum,
  one marching out of step

Who will swim against the tide,
 —their ink forever wet

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2017)

The Mancs Minx

The Convivial Mancs Minx
Stirrer of the Soup
Front and center of the Loom
Feminine rat pack crooner 
An erstwhile trusty steed
Who participates and loves to read
No man is an Island
But a women's playground 
To fell with words and pose
And she is a sullen rose amongst tidal waves

We Are Golden

Ripples in a pool, like the ramblings of a fool,
Arc outwards and die, like us all, you and I.
Incurable romantics, and, despite the semantics,
No man is an island, we are one under the skin,
Be it gay, straight or bi, we are all of one kin.
Only remember, we are what we are
Wisps of dust, born of the same star.

Strong Affection

Why can't I forget your name?
You swivel my head around and ignite a warmth feeling in my heart.
Surely,I cant and don't want to let go of this feeling stimulated by your presence around me.
Like Taylor swift you'll leave me with a blank space if you walk out of my life.
Stay with me like Sam Smith sings as no man is an island.

No Man Is An Island

You speak to my spirit with logic,
I answer your mind from my soul

With words in two disparate languages,
our discourse to never be whole

Your left hemisphere sealed in a vacuum,
when my right hemisphere comes to call

Though Donne said, “No Man Is An Island”
—you’re marooned there adrift toward the falls

Mind Scam

I think
Therefore I am
What a joke
Its really toast with no jam.
Save it for a rainy day
Do you know how many ive had
I dont want to come out and play
A penny for your thoughts
Yup, you nailed it
But thats all i bought
Give me liberty or give me death
Hmmm a coin toss
I wont hold my breath
No man is an island
Really?
Is it all inclusive man
A bird in hand is worth
Nah, im not even gonna go there

Himself

He is his own best friend.

Everything he does he shares with himself.
He laughs with himself.
He cries with himself.
He enjoys life with himself.
He is bored with himself.

He can say good things to himself.
He can do new things with himself.
He can talk with himself.
He can stay up all night with himself.
He can write to himself.

But he is bored with himself.

No man is an island.
