Paging the Pompadour
The twisted logic
of the megalomaniac
keeps reality
at bay
bejeweled in tinsel palaces
blissfully unaware
of mounting public anger
to sweep the cancer
away....

Red Pompadour
burgundy colored
looking to indigo skies ~
flight in deep shadows

Sure On This Shiny Knight
Sure on this shiny knight I pee
I so detest the parade I see
He is more pompous than a pompadour
And his stuffed mail I do abhor.
Oh so gay is his plume
He is but a raving buffoon.
I will not bow to his magnificence
There is no circumstance of any significance....

A Unicorn Walks Into a Bar
He walks into the bar
Like a movie star
With swagger
Out pouring the lager
Topped by a mop
Of such mythical proportion
It hushes the crowd
With its absorption
More adorn
Than a unicorn
Waving a pompadour
As big as a brontosaur

The Perfect Mate
She's pretty when she swims in the vat
with two green eyes, like a saucy cat
her hair of golden hue
is a pompadour skew
disheveled and pretty teased at that
it looks like its been chewed by a rat
Still, the sea never discriminates
her vagabond waters don't ingrate
her womb is plentiful
and as she draws she pulls
every Siren finds her perfect mate.

The Doll
THE DOLL
With Mona Lisa wiles, unfurled.
Her porcelain lips with tight grip.
A button dress antique and pearled.
Her glass eyed threat.
Unnerving doll — she’s quite a trip.
A poignant face, pompadour curls.
Her long stem rose replaces whip?
Alien smile out of this world —
impenetrable craftsmanship.
I broke in pieces as she hurled
her glass eyed threat.

Tgi Friday
In a restaurant
Elvis hung on a wall
Slightly crooked –
-nostalgic sepia,
Trademark pompadour.
His far away gaze
Staring blankly
Out at nowhere,
Through a window
At the drabness beyond.
In the background
“Always on my mind”,
Plays quietly behind the scenes -
- while a midday sun
Trickles colour into Elvis.
I leave after coffee
And take a walk
Down lonely street,
Where I will search for
Elvis in heartbreak hotel -
- I need to tell him
How much I miss him....

The Observer - For All the Royal Anglians Past and Present
Standing by a tree, rifle on hip
Leaves red and yellow like a Viking ship
Watching from the shadows, a poachers eye
Silently waiting as phantoms glide by
A noise, just a bird on the forest floor
Preening and dancing like Madame Pompadour.
Footsteps follow a distant call
Crouching like a woodlouse in a steel backed ball
Face in the dirt, a mouthful of leaves
Hiding in the gloom, nobody sees
Silence, nothing but another ghost
With the stealth of a tiger, moves back to his post....
