Ebony Tongue

though they sought the gentle verse
a wracking pain drew up their purse 
as thoughtless sovereigns hissed their curse 
the dollars drained; their feign- rehearsed

this tragic dismantling 
ever-torn fabric seams 
flowing a pious demand of the feed 
groveling majesties 
planted their effigy 
cordially under the pew cushion seats

stating repeat 
loving the myrrh 
silent decree
ebony spurs

Premium Member Love Above All

And if all I had 
was a heart to give,
would that be enough?

and if all I had 
in that heart were love
would love be enough?

for what good 
is other wealth
of the world,
if the grave
pays no special 
homage to Sovereigns?

with only love
pledging forever – 

even sacred vow spoken
permitted in death do they 
part....

I would like to think
that, love – above all! – lives
long beyond its heart –

A Fool's Account

Fraud and deception of the affluent eyes
Toss my purpose aside and let me hemorrhage humiliation
Drops of unappreciative pain plaster and soil black  
Cackles to hide my mammoth of hurt
Echo through a maze of sovereigns and numeric cipher

I’m a non-significant member of manuscript
An unknown, a recluse, a bother
Gauche trials of loss and fray
Matter to none who play the game
Yet in our tightly packed world

The Joker is always included.
