has recently pleaded just how could he know?
much evidence tainted
that man with the needle who frequently fainted.

A River of Memories

Johann Sebastian Bach,
the sounds that clear my mind
a river of memories 
... flowing

With every 
breath,
filling "Air"
into my soul

It's awfully untrendy
to be slender, long and bendy
but it helps to have reach
when seeking the peach,
chuckled Sebastian to Wendy

Premium Member Kaleidoscopic Sound

Three harpsichords dance in  
kaleidoscopic sound. 
Our Johann Sebastian
paints colors that abound,
radiantly prancing
in patterns so profound.

Johann Sebastian Bach
Found that bread gave him creative spark
He would eat a whole ciabatta
Then knock off a fugue and toccata

She sticks cons a fate
listening the young Bach
Jean Sebastian before the goodness
before the consciousness
after the Joy
to sing her first

We have new little mermaid toys at work.  
I picked up a handful of sebastian ones and said 

I've got crabs

Everyone was shocked and then laughed

German composer Johann Sebastian Bach -
Emotive depth and his “blue notes” were his music’s bedrock.
Having fathered twenty children and always on his toes,
how did he ever find time to compose?

Johann Sebastian Bach,
the corridor of cadenced choral he did proudly walk.
Baroque musician, virtuoso organist, he created conglomerate of style;
the harmony of intertwined melodies made him a composer versatile.

Premium Member With a Glass of Bordeaux

Johann Sebastian Bach
  composed concertos that rock
Ludwig von Beethoven
  gave us music for roamin' and rovin'

Austrian composer Johann Strauss
  the popularity of waltzes widened
An Amadeus Mozart violin solo
  sparkles with a glass of bordeaux 

When on these composers folks take a pass
  ~ they miss out on a classical gas

Scorpio

Sexy sensual silky smooth seductively smart Sebastian
Charismatic cool comet crashing creative chemical concoction
Over thinker overseer overwhelming
Revolving six shooter raw rhyme repeater
Purposeful and pondering the question of what's powerful
Intense somewhat intelligent always an irresistible individual
Oddball offspring enjoying an open water poetry philosophical odyssey

Listening To Bach

I crave the timeless peace and joy
This music often brings
To souls with whom the world would toy
And run around in rings.

Careless of mood, the master speaks
With string and pipe and voice;
No other strain my spirit seeks,
My Desert Island choice.

His counterpoint and melody
Shine through when days are dark;
None brings such solace yet, but he :
Johann Sebastian Bach.

Sebastian Fate once again 
Looked, up into the sky
The bloody war was over
But the Quotes refused to die

He knew it was a matter
Of time till once again
He'd be called to fight
When another war begins

Stay tuned for The Poetry Wars !

[curl Me I] We'Re Two of a Kind, Sebastian*

Curl me
The other way.
I do not please you this way.

Missing.
Wishing to
Reach out to touch you.

Hoping,
Hoping for you.
You hope for nothing that's worthy of you.

Teach me,
I will learn
To walk in only my shadow.

Refuse me.
I know not,
To abuse.

Milonga Triste

Bandoneon spins
Fibers of pain
Gossamer thin.

And I have danced
Tears off my soul;
Now it lies bare.

Under my feet
Dreams in the dust.
World’s saddest word:

Never.

His Palette Retorts

Sebastian
couldn’t live
without saving
the walls
His paint
covering over
dire messages
 scrawled

All passersby  
witnessed 
each canvas
restored
Reframing
dark alleys
with hope
evermore

Sebastian
a warrior
of brush
and stroke fame
Graffiti
a pockmark
his quest
to disclaim

Alone
in his wander
where shadows
hold court
Each wall of new
slander
his palette 
— retorts

The Sick Zebra

A zebra looked in the mirror one day

His stripes were fading from black to green

His eyes looked sallow and his stomach upset

Like when he ate too much candy on Halloween


He took some brown paint and covered his green stripes

Remembering the color wheel from third grade art

Brown plus green equals a return to black

He looked in the mirror and said, “Gee whiz! I’m smart!”

Premium Member Sebastian Is Alive

Antonio saved me from the ship that sank. For bringing me ashore, I have him to thank. I am in a new land, and I am alive. However, I believe my twin sister did not survive. I must seek refuge in this strange territory. Antonio says he cannot go with me. He claims the Duke named Orsino is an adversary. So Antonio wishes me luck and gives me his money. Based on the play "Twelfth Night" by William Shakespeare

Meteorite

Meteorite

Comet, fast at last, Here!
Hidden from the storm, 
Fires in the House of Glory, 
Cards prepared to win.

Memphis, Minos, Minus,
Just another rhyme, 
When you drop that dine, 
Kidding or not!

Won that space & time
Destructive by force, 
Concrete with desire, 
Comes with fire!

Broken into pieces
There is no need. 
For you to fuss or kid!
Time has gone, like a meteorite!

Premium Member Antonio Thinks Cesario Is Sebastian

The law authorities apprehended a man named Antonio. I have never met him before as he is someone I don't know. He contends that a while ago, he gave me some money. Now he wants it back to pay for bail that would set him free. Antonio kept calling me "Sebastian"; this seemed like an oddity. This action suddenly got my mind to be thinking. Is it possible my brother survived the ship sinking? Based on the play "Twelfth Night" by William Shakespeare.
