Delicious corpulent prattle stuck
blustering with sins,

slip quietly into the night....

Premium Member Fed Up
I'm tired of 
  the preening
  the posturing
  the posing

I'm fed up with
  the pretending
  the petulance
  the pessimism

Time for a new mirror
  ~ or perhaps a new me...

Premium Member Political Posturing
Its significance
             perceive
the radical
               notion
 a catalyst
an advocate
to store the senses
bewitch
      with guile:
much charm at play
with false
              concepts
to mock
    and deceive...

Sleepless
Sometime
In the willowy fingers of night
Reason shudders and escapes
Once immeshed in its' own intensity
Becomes
Bleached and pallid
Like moonbeams on the sea
Wave upon wave
Thought upon thought
After all the posturing
Bravado
Sinks brokenly into
Desperation
Until dawn beckons...

Premium Member Sign of the Times Hedonism
Glad,hedonistic lad;
Delighting in delectations,
Amusing affectations,
Posturing pretension
with ogling ostentation!

Professing pleasure seeking
Confessing,leisure leaning.
Reputation so revealing,
Passe peer appealing!

Performing,extroverting,
Showcasing,demonstrating,
Superficial and artificial;
Pleasure without measure....

Political Posturing Horn Haiku
Political Posturing Horn Haiku

"Very enduring;
Political posturing,
Has been quite the thing."

"Killing and dying;
Many people are crying;
Is no denying."


"God answer prayer
All of this is hard to bare
And we need your care."

I can't be any clearer than this.

Retired Veteran and
Renown Philosopher...

Haunting Trump Taunting
Haunting Trump Taunting

Haunting Trump Taunting
And over our heads vaunting
Appearance daunting.

Bad news am shearer
And again the sad bearer
Trump holy terror.

Party inviting
A President presiding
He should be hiding.

Always occurring
Politics and posturing
Some things still stirring.

Falling Leaves
This canopy seems here a day before the tree casts it away
 to live upon decay and feed where through the soil the old leaves bleed. 

The nourished water that it drinks created by nature’s instinct
for perpetuity of life based on the theme of sacrifice.

And are we not nature’s own child, for all our posturing, of the wild,
discipling like the falling leaf so loss gives new life its release....

Premium Member I Am Iron Man
It was once said, "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth".
Revenge isn't really sweet, but it is a bit uncouth.
You were fooled by thinking you would win.
In your losing battle, you committed another sin.

It can't be called poetic justice that you feel.
Posturing and abject will never be the real deal.
It was just some silly words of a poet you wanted to ban.
Mr. Stark publicly states with boldness, "I am Iron Man"....

Premium Member Female Statue In Platinum
powerful piece de resistance
precise, provocative, posturing 
providing plebian pleasure

Statuesque as an Amazon woman,
Platinum or pewter? She perseveres 
Prodigious? Preternatural and pivotal

Regal, brilliant, a spiritualistic luster
She sparkles with pure effervescence,
glistens with a gloriousness unknown by most

I follow her pooling petticoat into the 
outer limits of my poetic imagination, 
expecting nothing less than perfection....

The Way Down
Perpetual posturing
Stuck anchored down by the positioning of a perfect picture
A perfect picture with no permission to persist
Descending to this consumption 
Piss and vinegar in a pill capsule to portray the presumption
Of a petulant peasant painted in peer-pressure
Puppeteering the pendulum of a parent in postpartum
Part of the play
This pig patronized in pestilence 
Penance awarded by the penetration in post mortem 
Part of the play, it is
This is the way down...
