They Know It

when a monkey
puts on spectacles
a goat wears a suit
a rat sits on a chair
parrot speaks English
they are as clever
as humans may be

A pair of spectacles
an unsharpened pencil
an eraser, pink, shaped like Tennessee
Which of these is truth?
Answer quickly or fall to hell!

The Key World Opener

Spectacles one said,

A C one said,

Wheels one said,

Electricity one said,

At once,I say none,

But pen-

The Key World opener!

A Skewed Perspective, Thoughts On Joe Mavericks Spectacles

Facts we look upon,
And the apparent truth we observe,
Depend upon forgone,
Opinion that we reserve,
And is perhaps not what’s deserved.

Chicken Soup

I chase him round the hen house; gape on, 
hens.  I picture hot chicken soup on.  
I put on spectacles, 
cut off his testicles; 
now, use-ter be rooster's my capon.

Malapropism

The Science teacher told his eager class
"Alas, I can’t read without my eye glass
In rest room, left my testicles"
What he meant was ‘spectacles’
The children broke into laughter en masse

Wake Up To Reality

            rose      
           tinted
        spectacles
masks warts and all
   except I suppose
   the fine fragrance
          of an old
            english

To Face

The face is very generous 
Like a philanthropist,giving 
The top to hat to sit on head 
Both eyes to a pair of spectacles  
To mask the nose just center 
Beard to long down to chest
What space left behind to face?

The Empty Apartment 11

A stained teacup sits sadly in the sink
Ashes of a past fire grey the hearth
An unread newspaper, old man's spectacles
A packet of mints lay on the scratched surface
Of a beeswaxed table
Waiting for Thomas Ryan to return

MY HEART BEATS LIGHT LIFE-

My heart beats forth
Energies brilliants
Destinies worth
Unimaginable
Rallies forth spectacles
Springs forth awesome bright
My heartbeats light-life

Oh No Not Again

Again I’ve lost my spectacles,
The ones I need- to see.
I’ve felt my head and more than once,
Conclude they not on me.

They are the worst; to try and find
Seeking can cause troubles…
How to find a single pair-
When all you see is doubles?

Spectacles

I got new spectacles and it is pleasant,
The crystalline glasses shields my eyes from its rivals,
Its assets augment my sight,
Its wide frame broadens my vision of the environment,
And its reflecting skills hide my hopeless eyes.

Kickball

In your spectacles, 
Should I try them on. 

I see more than I 
Want, what I need
Is your labido. 

Caressing my 
Insides are you 
Family Man. 

And worshipping
Something unobtainable
Is my consolation prize. 

Yet, I always end up
Taking last place.

Nameless

The nameless 
in their ranks of cubicles
faces lit by a visual display,
numbers, 
reflected in spectacles
a list to be picked, 
like ripe cherries;
the soft flesh consumed
the empty pit spat out,
discarded.
The nameless;
harvesting
the nameless.

Spectacles of Imagination

Thoughts floating, surrounding reality with its own unique voice. Keeping your focus distracted from the on goings of this life. Little spectacles of imagination & words, images, meanings of today's, yesterday's, and tomorrow's constant reminders of little clouds of thought .....

Spectacles

A closer gaze
Yet they see not
A keener look
Clarification not found
What is to be
To see this bleakness
Cataract covering up their eyes

They couldn't see
What traitors around

Spectacles!
Spectacles of the mind
Let lenses be attached to their eyes
All they need is spectacles

Parrot the Catechist

Parrot the Catechist
preaches to the unconverted
talks in Latin to impress the ignorant
patiently listening to innocent souls
tells stories never has been heard
in tree-cathedral, wears spectacles
to look highly learned and respected
when priest comes in cassock
flies into hiding to save face

Only Lovers Decide

Sharing rose coloured spectacles
crowning stars in the night
drinking chante in the corridors
Fabrics so evenly woven
fashion so vivid
I reply some day
only lovers decide
The air whispers  many hues
Blessed moments of sweetness linger
warm rain falling at your feet
I may learn to trust again

Love Void

Cosmic winds carry light waves on
Caress the viral void, the solid soul
Touched by tomorrows molecules
Rolled up in crystal spectacles
Diamond bright whispers listen
While infinity knocks at the door
Walls and floors collapse no more
Where love soars the void begins
Enter.... but only if you can

Eyes Are Real

her bold shameful eyes
looks better when she shys
I want to be in her
wishing GOD for it to occur
I live in her eyes
as she dreams I sleep
the two classy eyes
behind the spectacles
I see them
without any obastacles
seeing her eyes
you forget to memorise
thus bold shameful eyes
looks better when she shys

The Spectacles

For the short-sighted
People say 
Put on your spectacles
You will see the world clearer
Without the spectacles
You will lose it before your eyes
Even then you can't see clearer
People's hearts with your spectacles
But one thing not to forget
You can see the heart of god
With or without spectacles

Pale Daughters Part Deux

Pale daughters
don't stoke the familial fireside
they wait patiently for the darkness
toting their time

They are not the ones
to hang around freckles smiles
instead they tell quaint jokes

Children call them defilment
their painted smiles tell a different story
lying in bed with their spectacles on.
