Poison dripping down,
Countless invisible screams,
The subjects are dead,
The Queens tomb unmarked unnamed,
Her Empire is no more.

rival feelings on subjects

a clash between two heads
thinking their opinion
is right

frayed ending to a
once beautiful 
relationship


Affection 2k13

'Tis therein embrace
where sighing and warmth occurs,
kisses ensue most properly
as inclined subjects board their
ships of affection due love.

Here’s to that gal, Mother Goose
Who’s writings are somewhat obtuse
If you read in-between
Her lines I mean
Her subjects are often quite loose

As a fine clock
Run by motion of the earth,
We are masters of 
Gears and lubrication
Though remain 
The subjects of time….

London's Burning the Empire Strikes Back

I am quite into comedy at the moment
Since the rioter's stole my telly
London's burning 
God save the Queen
Her subjects run obscene
The empire strikes back

Thoughts Received From God

Are some very good poems perceived;
While in and out subjects have weaved,
And will write,
To my delight;
Many more thoughts from God received.

Maths Queen

Maths is known as the king of subjects,

But Maths is not the king is the truth,

Her face is circle,

Nose is triangle,

The Queen is the Maths in all angles!

Premium Member Morning Benevolence

The magic happens at sunrise.
The wood faeries run to remain unseen.
The Sun stretches and greets its subjects.
One kiss here another there.

Premium Member Terra Firma

(a time piece in space)

behind yonder face
the fat queen lays indolent
subjects scurry blind
a hive of activity
driving each day into night.

Absolute monarch he is

His subjects the law obey

For equally are treated,

Death is the just king!

Premium Member Concerning Math and How To Say It

The British call it maths,
but the Americans ditch the s
causing much international scorn.
But for our sake, p'raps it'd be best
to keep subjects
only halfway grasped
in the singular form.

I Haven'T Got a Clue

11-21-2016


So many subjects we can talk about
Different things we can do
Being left out far into the distance
I will be graving my way back to you
For what kind a reason?
I haven't got a clue

"Show me your marks, my dear.", he asked his son,
Having not even passed his subjects one.
"Dad, I got zero in math
Following your trodden path",
The son replied hiding his feelings none.

Crazy hatter rode a fluffy sheep to London Town
Ready to create hats for everyone all around.
His subjects were excited, thrilled, tickled, and wound.
For they had never had a hatter in London Town.

Premium Member Flouting the Clout

So self-immersed with political clout

You've broken our trust as you strut and flout

     Pork barrels take precedence

     Over need and common sense

Treat us like subjects and we'll vote you out!

Premium Member Ode To the World's Queen

Never misstepped
    never misspoke
  Her bearing impeccable
    equilibrium evoked

  Adored by her subjects
    bewigged barrister... blimy bloke
  Tears flood the world's heart
    its queen's not awoke

Happy In 4,3,2,1

The 'crucial' material, superficial and trivial,
Affects subjects in context of perfected defects,
Venial miracles, remedials for the cynical,
Introspect. Project and infect, this selected side-effect.
