God appeared at Sinai
  within a thick cloud
Although He spoke
  quite clear and loud

A conundrum sure
  this is to some
Yet if He be invisible ~
  appearances are risible

A Big Smile

a saraband

Big smile, laughter with a reason.
Clowns oft disguise their pain with mirth,
like the buffoon, Jackie Gleason.

Stand-up comics are risible;
Dick Van Dyke's stunts were visible.
Grimaldi of London was right -
"Grim all day" but funny at night

written June 17, 2017

risible means "arousing or provoking laughter"

Feminism

Your screams have been heard. Attention drawn 
From all corners of earth. But like the parable of 
Christ, it falls on rocky ground. Growth grounded.
The envisaged
Struggle, 
Dissent, 
All - risible. 
Wait for sunlight if the moon doesn't 
Provide enough light to see your path. 
The sisyphean path of forlorn hassle. 
Your seed
Of protest
Will end on
Rocky path.

Risible

When words defy the grammar rules,
In spelling or in sound,
It’s easy to feel foolish,
Or at least that’s what I’ve found.

Today the word was “risible.”
I’d never heard it said,
So I employed a long “i”
When a short one’s used instead.

My references were visor, rising,
Wise, surprise and more
But indivisible (as in the pledge)
Was at its core.

I guess I learned a lesson
Though I’ve known it all along – 
You shouldn’t make assumptions
‘Cause most likely, you’ll be wrong!
