Hilda Doolittle self-styled 'H D'
showed an ego centred on 'me'
Also an early feminist
happily with Imagism she did persist...

I’d rather rhyme and meter my dreams,
But you like your verse jagged,
And ugly-built.
I’ll try it loose and anti-styled,
Formless as pooled tears
In maudlin drops.
Drink them!...

I’d rather rhyme and meter my dreams,
But you like your verse jagged and plainly-built.
I’ll try it loose and anti-styled, formless as pooled tears
In maudlin drops...drink them!...

Listen to poem:

A living forest,

Where chirping birds chorale and

Butterflies whispers,

Beyond my styled wood door, and 

Timbered home of nailed panels.

Thomas  Aquinas a 13th  century  friar
 raised poetry a little higher
With  his prayer anapestic
an AABBA  now styled a limerick
perhaps led to the position of prior!

When darkness styled me for a while
He deftly like a surgeon broke the spell
Begin we dropping dangled from a chute
From above we land one step from hell

Remember … You jumped and pulled the ripcord to start the journey...

The legendary Johnny Cash
   Alcoholic, 'white trash'
His initials -- J.C. -- helped him
   Come all the way back

From drunken bouts
   Of Despair and Depression
This self-styled 'Man in Black'
   His Cadillac baritone so refreshin'...

Sense current passes through
to the Brain's house
mind bulb lights on 
voice seeking out

What is said there
after realization
happy sorrow all are
styled with passion

Sweet sour tastes named
to let us know with words
Mind feels real feeling
with own vibration...

Experiences re-lived
culled from images I've seen,
books recalled,places I've seen;
Re-fashioned,enhanced and changed
emphasised and re-arranged,
evoked,re-styled in shaded tones,
uniquely embossed my own;
Written out for you to see
this poem trapped,within me..
Now,you dear reader..set free....

Their loving cup sits on a shelf
     stained by the dust gathered there
   Next to a grainy photo of the chair
     where he first styled her hair

   Tears trickle 'cross the windshield
     their first and last car
   Lips melting on a screeching curve
     intersecting the moon and the stars...

Listen to poem:

Hawaii, Where The Meek Is Obsolete

When within a unicameral state,
Where there is no reasonable debate,
Whether you vote all yea,
Whether you vote all nay,
Why ask if a communist-styled dictate?

A poet and songster short lived with
powerful visions brought out
In lyrics styled with music
that tells of wisdom surpassing
his time of life and death 
by drugs and alcohol his escape
short life but bright spirituality
engaged his talent with rage
delivering his mind to end

Between what is and isn’t,
 lies a canvas of what could be

Colors in contrasting unison,
 tomorrow’s brush strokes—paint can free

Shores of promise, woods of joy,
  still-life in eternal relief

Framing as one, styled for all,
  its message forever—yet brief

(Train from Fredericksburg: April, 2017)...

Her demeanor mild,
Still a tad wild.
She's such a sweet child..

Beauty and charm well compiled.
She is never riled.
Her demeanor mild.

The angels smiled.
Curls that wouldn’t be styled.
Still a tad wild.

She absolutely beguiled.
Her toys neatly piled.
She's such a sweet child.

Styled like a T Bird.
She really purred in third.
By listening to the engine
you did shift.
Ahe was sleek and styling
if you get my drift.
Her body golden cream,
the roof black.
It's the one with the roof
that slants slightly back.
Pop shifting soon became
my speciality.
I just loved my 
1964 Super Sport Chevy....

Unbeknownst to them I am their wild child,
what a precious smile she’s a pussycat;
Lecherous phrases on iron they were filed,
unbeknownst to them I am their wild child;
Calculated and curt is how I’m styled,
silk hat graffitied with the word ‘Hazmat’.
Unbeknownst to them I am their wild child,
what a precious smile she’s a pussycat....

Tall trees sway with ease
In a warm gentle breeze
Bright blossoms are dancing
This sight’s so entrancing

The weather is quite mild
Though my hair, newly styled
Blows freely in the air
But I don’t really care

Mother Nature provides
The winds and the tides
When I’m walking outside
My sheer joy I can’t hide

Hunger

Red-gulletted, it can eat up a man
A five year old could defy it at will
And reject a bite that comes once a day
Hunger, its wholesome milk ,and all the food
Hunger  dies  before it could kill or maim
City-fathers, priests, self-styled do-gooders
And  plenitude-promising  pot-bellies
There  is  only extinct  humanity
Amidst  your existent  privileges....

Time was once a letter sent
A thinly packaged salutation
Revealing reads and rushes
A content discourse situation

Story lines entwined grapevines
Most privately complicit
A baton passed a relay cast
Too confidential to elicit

Artistic flair in swirling script
Stylish prose self styled emphatic
A photographic written pose
Of diatonic scale chromatic...

Missy Sue makes malted milk shakes
and she savors marmalade,
macaroons and snickerdoodles
and sweet souffles she has made.

Sue is messy slicing melons,
strawberries and mangoes too.
Sue munches seeds and celery sticks.
She mixes meats, making stew.

Milk chocolate -mouth-watering,
sweet and marvelously mild -
satisfies Missy Sue
mainly if it is Swiss styled!...
