Some people are up to no good
And seldom behave like they should
When in Tinseltown
They let their hair down
Knowing starlets like Holly would...

Got a saggy butt balanced with overhanging belly
Try “Liftabulge” guaranteed satisfaction as seen on the telly
Get rid of that flab
This product is fab
Even Hollywood starlets apply this nice-smelling jelly...

~Lost are our beautiful starlets in the early forties
  In full garb, signs of their times, dancing tipping toe prancing their stance
  Contrasting our times, no cleavage revealed , but legs were bare

Half moon, moth, and raven
Silhouettes
All are witness to my writing

Peaceful April haven
As sun sets
And the twilight brings good tidings

Evening breeze and jasmine
Find their way
Like a lullaby to my soul

Tiny starlets dazzling
Vines that sway
Wrap ‘round my heart and make me whole....

Paper machinations
steam blase
A lineage of a story
gives blurry eyed account
Velvet accorance
the seats are tweed


Whilst those bewailed on newspaper lined bench's
steal sleep
Tramps in grey silhouette
chew on dead cigars

Sequenced starlets
cruise soothsayers in Marylebone 
Dancers kick their manniquet stance
worship the jaws of night
turn grey in disown...

I`ve waited for long
to see my star and starlets,
Pains of incarceration,
can`t stop my passion,
My body can be weakened,
not my heart and emotions.

Great pearl of my soul!
No sickness can hold me down,
though my liver may fail me,
I will rise again
to take you to mount of bliss,
Now that I`m home,my love reigns!.

Dancing, whizzing, whirling,
  Skaters swooping by;
Starlets busy twiriling,
  Pointing to the sky.

Judges tracing outlines,
  Fancy figure eights;
Hopefuls' unread headlines,
  Sealed in starry fates.

Breathless finish flowing
  From dazzling routine;
Nervous, never knowing,
  Verdict yet unseen.

Women's Figure Skating--
  TV's stellar ore:
Winter's Watchers Waiting
  Heroine's Encores.

Cigar but no cigar
extinguished by the elders
Gaslighting commissioners held in tweed
The night people slide in between

Pouring light
velvet dolls
play with their own discord
electric spears happenstance
pale Harlequins of the night
scratch their gilded fears

outstretched hands
that jabs the line
of ghost trains

Stacked chips
sequined starlets shinge
Rhinestone streakers parade
paying homage
to pipers never paid
who snort energy in spoons...
