Joe Samson couldn't stand racket
he told his five boys to sack it.
They refused to comply
today they wonder why
their dad was driven to crack it.

When Orpheus sang on his flute
All Nature listened falling mute
But when Samson sang
It sounded like a bang
That sleeping babies woke up with a jolt

Samson had some gorgeous hair
Everyone assumed he had flair
Until she took his pride
Hair was cut, he broke then cried
With no hair, they didn't care

Delilah was hoping for pearls
But Samson thought she'd love his curls
Come on! Be fair!
Who wants dead hair?
So Samson got snipped like the girls.

Hercules peered out on the dance floor
spotted beautiful Delilah holding court
Scanned the room for Samson but
saw a chair where hair'd been cut

SAMSON
There was a young man named Samson
Who was strong, rugged and handsome
He had hair curly and long
That made him exceedingly strong
But a haircut was the demise of Samson

still Cuts the hair of

Light Verse
Samson had Delilah,
I married a pariah...
She'd bedded the
entire city,
And was really not that pretty,
But dumb is dumb,
And genitals think,
Led to a marriage,
Which really did stink.

Courage
There once was a man who was fearless
Confronting a fear he could care less
His courage was there
Like Samson with hair
Except on his head he was hairless

Trying to escape eternal fire,
but she manipulating my desire,
strong like samson but she be delilah.
Swear wanted to run joseph potiphar
but i stayed david bathsheba.
Need more than a favour i need da saviour.

Dramatic Monologue
You clipped my wings
You cured my flirt
You blinded my sight
From bevy of beauties.
I'm a toy in your palm
Administered unto your wish
And, like powerful Samson
I'm doomed!
Love,
Sweet bait
Covering a naked hook
The cemetary of my life.

The Philistines wanted the source of Samson's power
Delilah tried,nagged and then to her love,lied
In weakness,this Judge was soon to cower-
Samson' strength was never self-reliant,
The Spirit of the Lord had made him a giant

Narrative
Samson slapping feet of passion
on the warming asphalt passing-
by my seedlings, hardy lasting
can't help feel my youth is passing.
On the treetops, time elapsing,
photos of the flowers hatching.
Spring is coming, Samson running-
feet are planted and are lasting.

SAMSON 2
Samson killed a thousand men
With the jawbone of an ass
There was no other man alive
In mighty Samson's class
But his strength departed from him
After all was done and said
Because a lady named Delilah
Shaved mighty Samson's head

Samson was known for strength and flowing mane
He loved Delilah who became his bane
Through many a bedroom schmooze
She found the key to his ruse
She barbered him bald in a coup de main

I want the dripping edge
of my words
to be raw,
like wind in a hurricane
like creation’s power before it acted
like anger before attack
or lust before love
Intuition before reason
Samson before Delilah
Meaning before definition
Epiphany,
—before the letters form

Ballad
“Handmaid of Patriarchy”
the garden rezoned
Embattled virility
misogyny cloned
As Delilah revolts
a new Samson on scene
One half of the whole
left to drown in the stream
Each genders new quotient
to minus the plus
A He without Her
— the destruction of us
(Saint David’s Pennsylvania: May, 2025)

In potted hills Finnish
Cauldrons run quips losing custard!
Vanquished serpents necking
Lounging cretons lavish
Tasking tisks
Mirroled bounce
Hinde bounding exiles
Worrisome kneels condensing bonnet?
Will and either knawlings
Coffered
Loave of Samson
Reason less below her faults
French horror?
Recalcitrant!

May the beneficent and infinitely omnipotent
Name of Jesus Christ the Son of God
Eternally impute blessings lofty and abundant
Upon the blessed memory and legacy so bold,
Of my beloved dad, revered and eminent,
Reverend Samson Singi who when seventy years old
Was called to be with his Master still humble and repentant!

THE AFFAIR OF DELILAH’S BARBER
Delilah’s decadence was hard to bare.
Barbarous Philistines, they’d cut his hair.
His new growth wrought with chillers.
They had chained him to pillars.
Samson fell house in an awful affair.

Samson slew a thousand men with the jawbone of an ass!
The Lord said, "You done good, boy! You've got a lot of brass!"
"Thank you, Lord!", as he surveyed the carnage he did that day.
"I must say, I sure made donkeys out of them Philistines today!"

If I must sing...
I will sing about you.
If I must dream...
I will dream of you, angel.
If I must go to the moon...
I will pray we go together, alone.
If I must be in the ocean...
Your company will make us titanic love.
If I must go for an adventure in the forest of Lions,...
You with me dear, will make me a Samson.
I LOVE YOU.
