To delve in the ruse
And emptiness
To fill it
Walking to avoid
That s***...

I always was a fool for you
Eating your lies with a silver spoon
Now I’m on a diet
But you still try it
Gagging me with a new ruse...

If we choose,
to be now content
as our muse,
heart’s consent,
shapes soul, free from ego ruse,
self-luminescent.

It’s effect designed to confuse
Politics is clearly a ruse
With culture this skewed  
Truths appear to be rude
And those who won’t lie always lose...

Are you also truly, undoubtedly, deeply in love with me?
Or is it all purely, shamefully one big ruse?
Are you and I ever going to call upon a truce?...

Broken Wing Ruse
With broken wing

She tried to fly

A broken wing

The ruse she tried

On broken wing

The sigh, it died

For broken wing

Her lover cried

President Donald Trump
loss the election and fell to a slump.
He refused to concede
that he didn’t succeed. 
So, he tried to make others feel stumped.

My computer's away

He is my muse, this is no ruse at all on my part.
I just want us to go on a cruise and to be held in your heart.
I can't wait for the honeymoon, when our new life will start....

Hola Pablo
Life is creation  
not a discovery
Distant horizons
the palette we choose

Painting and singing
loving and dreaming
Memory a servant
—time but a ruse

From the Sages of old
came an ancient ruse.
They named it a Yote.
But it's not a fluke.
Cause they're in the know.
Won't, refute the scrolls.
Yotes, wear sneaker boots.
And Yodel in Tune....

The Frog Prince Muse
For my birthday wish

I prayed for a kiss

From a frog Prince

My delightful muse

With his clever ruse

Made me wince

Because that foul fellow

Turned me yellow

When I instead smooched a fish!...

Taking Flight
Upon reaching the top
I found a new bottom
Polarity lies
with the truth ill begotten
Direction a ruse
in misguided fruition
As searchers take flight
— in their new destitution

Thank
And love in thee, conceal as not of rank
that might incite thee to a ruse,
exhibit could not shank.

Oh love, the day be gone ~ abuse,
unless of thee am thank,
not just because I see thee true ~

but feel thee close at bank!...

Cruel Ruse
Someone’s tied me up,
And gagged me.
Must be someone’s cruel ruse.
I try to breath but it’s no use.
The rope is breaking into my skin.
Please, Lord, help me,
This pain just won’t end.
So shoot me now,
And end this cruel ruse....
