The Barber of Seville

Today, I chose to shave my head,
by a shaky hand I was led,
I tried to glide the razor,
cut me quick like a laser...
"Emergency room!" Enough said?

The Trickster of Seville

Trying too hard
to appear he’s not trying
Saying too much
without saying a thing
Shapeshifting lover
the fire his mistress
Locked in an image
—whose essence is damned

(The New Room: June, 2023)

Premium Member Sevilles Finest Flamenco Dancer

Her lightning fast moves mesmerized me
she’s the fastest flamenco dancer in Seville someone whispered
well practiced whirls of pinks and oranges captivated her audience
without fans, shawls or castanets

Premium Member Kill the Shrill

there was a young man from Seville
whose wife's voice was chillingly shrill
	he said please shut up
	he’d more than enough
sending him looking for advil!

Premium Member Travelling Jill

There's a sweet young lady named Jill
for whom travel is such a big thrill.
She sees many places
and lots of kind faces
in Asheville, Nashville,
Seattle and Seville,
Belleville, Louisville
and Copacabana, Brazil!

In 76

The concert began

We were in a world of animation

Our thoughts confused reality

Fans Clapped
Fingers dropped to the ground

Three fat girls giggled without sound

Eyes closed…
The band played as if they were on stage

Lighters lit we howled in hysterics

You were there…

We drove home in some Dad’s ’76 Seville

I own one now

Premium Member Great and Rugged Pyrenees

Great and Rugged Pyrenees
   Whose solid presence demands
Notice of lush valleys
   And Spanish oaks that dot the glens -

Prevailing winds churn in wrath -
   I stop to breathe in them;
You cut the horizon in half
   And grip my eye with icy hands.

Your cohort - a mix of clouds -
   Can't forever hide your majesty.
Seville looks on from the south;
   Andorra claims the victory.

Premium Member Consecration, the Sun Bleeds over Seville

The beast Alhambra 
roared a violent psalm
Vile conversos
horrid moriscos, 
the heretic herds
A spear thrust into
our sun’s martyred ribs
Held in hateful grips
the yellow warblers
dripped in crimson sheen
Flying like Michael
the vengeful vassal
of Aragon’s decree
“O Torquemada
Hark the righteous call
King of Suprema
Execute them all!”
Cold unfeeling wretch, 
the flesh guillotine
Teeth clicking sparks
lit endless pyres
Three made Seville
weep at the sight of Friars

Winter Coller

Winter Coolers

The air of Delhi,
Giving the pure air bely,
One-time visit to our Suraj valley,
Where even stone mosses give pure air.
Where the discussion on the Chinaberry,
Giving Great Green Back Order,
To  Cloud Computing cloudiness ( pollutants ) Maker,
Giving Originally order to Organized Oregon,
When Cloud bawls and fallen teardrop,
Telling The Kohinoor salvation,
Where on winter flour Dive from Sky,
The rind of the Seville Soar Orange tells the Winter Cooler Current.
