sophistry blends with artistry
woos the languid lover
afterward, ‘pon reentry
devilish charms uncovered
We say so much
That so much more
Is left unsaid.
And it seems to me
We often speak
Just to cover, truth
In a mountain of words.
And that is why
So much gets said
That so much more
Is left unsaid.

His sophistry made sense to the hillbillies who were listening
They ran out and told it as if it was gospel
Because to them, it was
They had no idea he was a conman.
They thought he was an honest man,
but alas, they were tricked by his tomfoolery.

We cannot reach into our past, and alter any acts,
Many, demanding this change, are attempting sophistry.
They make it more palatable, by distorting the facts,
but It is what it is, and good or bad, it’s History.
I will dust your body dripping with fruitful pollen
from golden buttered sunflowers tall and towering
painting the sky filled with choirs of yellow canaries
so I may fill your shoes with happiness

The isle beguiles as it floats, near-distant
on smooth sea miles, that invite a look-see
Rising serene, it draws the innocent ~
The glassy calm’s ultimate sophistry
underlying treacherous depths that grasp
Gushing light, colors, and dark mystery ~
another farer sighs an abyssal gasp

Fantasy,
a past remembered
Travesty,
regret in embers
Sophistry,
no reason proffered
Majesty,
the treasure offered
Artistry,
the future tendered
Modesty,
true self is rendered
Memory,
where life is gathered
Presently,
—the time that matters
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
The rich gets richer
As the poor seem poorer
Most people seem to imagine
Reinventing ones self
As an empty envelope
Nautical dreams filled with empty water
Bottles covered in air
Ingredients tangent
Open sophistry
Pigs growing unusually
Dogs catching people
People chasing dogs
While dissociated cats eat frogs
Reinventing ones self
Open sophistry
True Life

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. ©2018
What secrets does the winter know,
Would it tell me if it could?
Fairy tales of frost and snow--
Of icicles and leafless wood.
And would I dare believe a word,
Having such a story heard?
Or would I skeptically ignore
Such grand unlikely things?
Or would I earnestly implore
Of it whatever winter brings?
What secrets does the winter know?
I believe I'll trust to see--
Then tell the tales soft and low,
Of winter's sophistry!

In a toxic environment we’re being forced to live,
and in the name of social justice we rewrite history.
We dwell on past wrongs while refusing to forgive,
and many is the time we’ve resorted to sophistry.
We no longer extend the hand of kindness to others,
and we busy ourselves daily, inspecting others fruit.
Because each person has his or her own druthers,
each sunrise always brings something else to dispute.
