Phalanx
A gymnast you must be,
to turn my whole world
upside down.


An alchemist you are,
to change my world of dust
to gold.


A musician you be too,
to lead my heart
to sing so.


An engineer for sure,
to build such
hopes and dreams.


Or just a simple preacher,
to save
this wretched soul....

End
the end I warn you:
catharsis of bad things
that converging in blocks
form an antagonistic empire
your face will show everything
sad frown
but even that won't keep away
the phalanx spears
pointing victorious
for the ride of the hours
unbalancing fate
and paving the path of indifference
of what will survive...

Hand Bells
One, two, three
He starts it off
A phalanx of bells starts
Rings from posts on a horse-shoe set of tables

Big heavy dongs from one of the flanks
Little light tings from the other
Medium dings from the middle
Exclusive pings when it happens

Dings like falling glass on impact
Madness orchestrated
Chaotic music with perfect control
A river of tune created...

Premium Member Great Start
A black butterfly visits 
a morning display 
of dew wet flowers.
No concern about the mere mortal 
tending the garden.
It's soon joined by
a phalanx of small whites.
Handmaidens 
to a royal presence.
The beauty brazenly sits 
on an extended hand.
Opening and closing wings
while surveying the feast of nectar before it.
The tiny whites move as if 
dancing to an unheard melody.
My day is off to a great start.

Irony
The poplar trees stood like sentries
Standing on one leg in their green
Uniformed grandeur. Beyond their
Phalanx could be seen a stately
Manor whose imported marble
Pillars were more decorative
Than utile. Not unlike the sole
Inhabitant who lies dying
In his magnificent antique
Breton bed. He never married-
“I’m too busy for such nonsense.”
Consequently, no progeny,
No living relatives, no one
Only a dreadful eulogy:
Alone died a poor man, indeed!...
