PERVERSITY

There once was a struggling poet
When words failed, he’d know it
With that one metaphor
Used many times before
His conscience told him to stow it...

Not since ancient Greece and Rome
has sexual perversity been so at home!
You’d be hard pressed to prove conclusively,
pagandom had been replaced by Christianity!...

Hey, I hear you’re looking for a pet
to match your personality?
So sorry, but no animal as yet
matches to anything like your perversity.
May I suggest – no insult meant –
try looking on another continent....

Diversity of University to Destroy Perversity

An outstanding feature is our diversity,
Which will be displayed in a university;
In open view,
For me and you;
That does ward and put off all perversity.

Memories of long ago

I feel so old

Standing beside the mold

Of humanity foretold

We all fall into vanity

Abandoning reality

The world's lost its sanity

Questions abound

Hell surrounds

Engulfed in curiosity

Blind to piety

Humanity falls 

Into arrogant perversity....

re-post inspired by Nette contest

From grainy graduations of dark chaos
multiple emotions leap out and erupt
from the unconscious mind.Angst in
moody blue,beauty of random gestures.
Perversity facing up to life,a lyrical dream
a panorama of varied shapes balanced in
space,shadowing  floor to ceilng with
mobile images in silhouette....

Goethe’s Emissary
 
Mephisto-Hereistoo
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Faust on the Brocken summit
Go our own sweet way for show.

Walpurgis Nacht’s spirit of perversity 
Mephistophelian 
Time now for your eternal soul
The Evil One’s sitting in a fiery glow.

Cucumbers, celery and stem-vine tomatoes
were hobnobbing with my Russett potatoes.
Pears and plums and one Georgian peach
winked at the Wisk and Snuggled the bleach.
Pretzels and popcorn and the Tostitos chips
ogled in awe as Meyer's bacon strips stripped!
Mr. Clean and Mrs. Dash espied a risqued art - 
when double-clipped coupons tainted the cart!...

Be tender, with me? 
in midstream. 
I will not arrive.

Perversity was not 
my virtue. I am still 
burning on coals.

It was a disappearing act. 
I become a brown rose 
in your eyes.

The impacted glitch. 
I was not deft 
at the art of weaving a ritual.

I carry the dried skull, 
of my unknown ancestor, 
who would not come back to home.

You always repeat the moons
in your eyes.
I will not drop my lids.

I was talking to myself
about the perversity of skimming
the sperm, throwing black rocks
on milk white daisies-
to protest against the fields
not ploughed deeply and scattering
the seeds in wild jungle.

One day panther will die
on his own, head down,
swaying, leaning on one side
and then collapsing.

No pheromones will come out
from the spent body.

An acid drop burns your lips,
dares you to question
the continuity of crossroads.
Nowhere you reach.

A burden to accept
the gratitude of a cactus
for permission to bloom
in starless night.

The perversity prevails over the body.
You strip to the bone
and start a blue fire
in the valley of denials.

The skill breaks the terrible wall.
Unlike a paperweight you bend
a clean argument
and climb on the stings.

Classes on tranny and queer diversity
    universities reek of perversity

  Discrimination abounds all around
    save if your skin's black or brown

  Tuition hikes obscene, naked robbery
    flaunt luxury dorms and diners, effete snobbery

  Not a smidgen on learning or teaching in glittering reports
    just facilities upgrades, data analytics in sports

  Grade inflation boosts illiteracy ever higher
    agree or disagree ~ at least I'm no liar...

PERVERSITY

contrarily agreeable
sometimes rebellious 
but
never unreasonable

that’s me when I 
want to be free
desert island exile
scratching my days
away on a coconut
tree or shell

 to travel in time
and turn water to
wine
to shoot lasers
from sharp eyes
then watch the
compromise

when landscapes are frank
and nightfall’s harsh I
dive underwater
escaping blue
stark naked past

Envious, yet so pious
Lost in a sea of familiarity
The glare sets my soul on fire
I rose out of simple elements
How I tire
Hanging on a rusty wire
The air is thick 
With the stench of perversity
Reality can be so cruel
You knew me then
Now a fool
A rebel to thoughtless rules
Kept amused by the dancing fire
The blue flame lit 
Feels so cold
Leaving me numb
Feeling so old
You told me a story 
Once before
Now I wait for your return
To enter through 
The open door....
