Short Suites Poems

Green sequin lines leather seats
In a shining emerald limousine,
As a television screen streams
Sequences of the finest of suites....

morning turns come to the light 
phantom calls birds to tweet 
amaral spears dew grass suites

Clear as  pools of water
Looking into the eyes 
Of a new born child
Wonderment of what title 
Suites firm
Doctor
Law maker
Chief of staff
Blank slate 
Treasure to be had
Keepsake nomad...

some on in school
some have other office tools

Sky dragons,
Mighty attractions,
Builders build,
Workers bleed
Diving floors,
Infinity pools
Imitating paradise?
Posh suites,
Modesty retreats 
Trying to touch the clouds,
Are you immortal kings ?...

Disunity


       The incessant flux of biased perception...imperils humanity's intended 

                                                    destination

vast wonder-scape

expanse
                   variegated flora silent joy

           confetti heat-swirl rise

oaken nesting suites sprinkled

              seedlings dispatched on cue

          avian and apis

Sweetest voice that I await,
Springtime suites you best, 
For as a bloom that bursts to life
Are you within my chest.
Never has a whisper slipped
That falls so gracefully;
Spoken from your perfect lips, 
A word is proud to be.
The ocean breathes your very breath;
You speak--the waters move.
Yea, the breaking of the waves--
Grace is all you do....

I need you to follow this road, 
A bumpy one in fact, 
If you help me out, 
We can make a pact.

This road I call life, 
Has many routs, 
Some bad, some good, 
But almost all make us pout.

So pick one, 
That suites you, 
That you can handle, 
You can't loose.

Make a pact, 
And group together, 
Take a rest, 
One after another....

Bright young things
the class of 2019
Tories with their fresh rosettes
they said they could level up the Red Wall
now bide their time to forgotten promises
in their brazen suites
lost chance saloon in a cavalier fashion
ill affording suffragette society
look at them in their run in
Labour ushers a bravo return,
The Reform party
picks up on the crumbs
of discontent...

Life Ended In Window Suspended

No matter what my cat intended;
Was almost like his life had ended;
A new craze;
Constant gaze.
Stared out window as if suspended.

We are staying at Comfort Suites in
Cary, NC. It is a real pretty city.

We are waiting out affects of
Florence. It was even near
Florence, SC. The rivers are
all bankrupt after having left
their banks. Ho, ho....

Green paper planes
Fly the rich away

But I've got plans to stay.
With my karma I will pay.

I've seen a poor man today
Armed with nothing but news

As I sit with a coffee
Waiting for my muse.

I watch them all walk past
Dressed in suites and tie

Both me and the poor
Cast from society. 

That doesn't sit right with me
But I know they want more

So here it goes

A poem a day.....

Heart Set Free


                                   Betrayal stirs his dormant shiver
 
                                   Regretful tears flowed out to sea

                                   Broken promises failed to deliver

                                   Silent goodbye set her heart free

The sleek train sped onward.
Its path blurred by its pace.
Sights flicker ands strobe through 
glass apertures
to quickly for eye or mind to 
discern content.

The iron horse hissed white noise
toned florescent light;
bowels full of black haired beauties
black suites businessmen
rumbling.

Calm and an outward serenity masks
an inward hunger for success
on the velvet lined bullet to Tokyo....

A Victim of Florence

We are having to stay at Comfort Suites
in Cary, NC until Thursday and hopefully
by then highways and roads will be clear
and we can safely return 150 miles home
to Bolivia, NC. It is costing us $100 a night
and hope our National Homeowners Insurance
will cover some of it. I have not written a 
poem in a week now. Florence has really
been messing over my mind.

Our class of three suites me
we get along just fine
we play and romp and run around
under the smiling sun
we fall we're scraped we're cut too
I always have to tie my shoe
but no matter where or what the game
no one will ever name names
we compute in math like gears in a grinder
we experiment in science and work together
the boys and I get along just fine 
we'll always be together same class same time...

1803 the hoes of 1803 were forged
and the handles carved.
Used in areas of gardens
and feilds
the cicadia made
the locals conversationist.
Until "ole Fussy" told
them
"ya'll Bouis shut yo' mouths
foo Gingle Dheeze come
down year and quiet ya'll up!"

Oh: ooh wee!

Towering concrete monoliths
Loom above seemingly mindless
Lemmings rushing, bumping, pushing
Their way in endless, moving lines
Of backward and forward motion;
Each with programmed destinations
Instilled by subtle brainwashing
By the few who reside above
In luxurious penthouse suites.
Below one of the unthinking
Queue falls dead on the cold pavement
Only to be trampled underfoot
Unattended amidst raucous
Noise of taxi horns and Sirens....

the owners decided to rename the honeymoon suites hotel
after so many marriages got off to a terrible start
two of the brides had died in their sleep the first night
the ghost of this place is howling as I type this, I know.

six grooms have jumped off the balcony to their deaths.
no, I am not inside a room typing this. I am across the street.
whatever is haunting that place is too intensely evil for me.
it should be the Heartbreak Hotel if you ask me....

1958

Bikini bottom
All sponges rotten
The people have left
Though the holes remain

Swim suites in celebration
Propaganda in every state
Love that bombed a hate
Because of their guns
They are the great

Still poor bikini island
Where once the people thrived
Now thanks to that Uncle Sam
And his cheerful children
That lowly hydrogen weapons

The island is left in radiation seasons
And all those soldiers could scream was
God bless our nation…...

Like Rain



        In the dead of night my spirit searched for meaning something it may 

        ascertain


        Still darkness blinded these forlorn feelings of finding soothing verses

        for utter pain


        Fists clenched as blood surges through veins like rivers swelling, eyes

        shed tears like rain...
