Short Noblesse Poems

the waltz
of swayed noblesse-
my arms in a floating trance
twirling high through illumined sky,
dancing...

In the past, people trusted the press.
For the press had a certain noblesse.
But today, I would say,
trust has withered away —
we are now very hard to imPRESS....

Our fellow brother
has a jaundiced eye.
It’s best to smother
our foolish heart’s sigh.

Noblesse oblige’s passé.
Why’d we trauma bond
with rabid dogs stray?
Just smile and abscond.

I struggle for success
i do profess
is not what i possess

i fight for rights
that have no lights
when i ignite

my goals and dreams
in this stream
of never ending screams

is useless
when i unleash 
My new noblesse 
in a pool of peeress
fighting for control of her finesse...

The globe is gliding round the one that glows,
Which nestles insidiousely in the east,
Owls coo and raindrops throw,
Their waters down for the flora's feast.

Twilight trickles away like the morning dew,
That twinkles in starlight upon the shore of the sky,
Waxing away what is left of the few,
Shadows whose noblesse oblige is nigh....

O thy beauty
So gentle!
Grazing the breeze as you
Sway indolently among its
Freshness…
O thy beauty 
So gentle!
Dancing on the rhythm as you
Create your own symphony,
Noblesse… 
O thy beauty 
So gentle!
Descending leisurely as you
Comfort the air with your
Caress…
O thy beauty 
So gentle!
Falling leaf of autumn, 
More than words can 
Express......

my dear friend
it is time
for you
to ascend
noblesse oblige
not the trend
so please wait not
for me as my ego
has yet to bend
with love to blend

I will wait
in darkness below
until I become still
in tranquility sedate
holding the hand
of those 
who cannot stand 
in the fervent hope
that seeing us grope
you will throw us a rope

one day

Bated young as if moth,
our rushlight engrossing as inferno,
to minds untaught of hell.

As hell itself to learned folk,
cursed with mystic beginnings,
drowned deep within their well.

Before the airy days of care,
can gently ease them in,
to the world as sheer as veil.

We bury deep insecurities,
in soil that we are oblige to love,
and scorch the earth in ways that time will only tell....

Dark as a demon, but with the soul of
an angel, he's a Portuguese Water 
Dog who's never been to sea, but, as 
he oughta, he loves water, and highly
proprietary when you're watching 
TV, downtime is shared, so it's his paw
on your foot, or else it's his head. 
Morning ablutions, one leg in the air, 
he waters a thicket, which wakes up a 
cricket who begins to sing. The world 
is his lavatory. Noblesse Obligatory. 
It's a Water Dog thing.

                   for my granddog......
