though rocked, tossed I am

             by waves of spite, swirls of sham,

Drift not from helping hands,
Who knows where one lands;
Allow not around chorus gangs
Who fly when tough times bang....

We would discover and knew he is deluded;
A flimflam;
Also sham;
From every exercise he should be excluded.

Sham Pillows
Wear the mask
Graffiti tunnel
Windy inside
Worse above

Pretty defaced message
Spray paint tired

Isolated crowd
Echoed shroud

Subjugated love
Tread enraged

Rotting beneath
Porcelain crown...

Heavenly Sham
With every religion…
to share in the blame

Masking out God,

Seeking to own

—a heavenly sham

GOOD LUCK, SAM

Shamrocks with green eggs and ham.
Resistance from Sam I Am.
If you offer him gold,
he won’t see the mold.
Leprechauns roar at the sham.
