Sumptuous sensual satin surroundings
Treasured plush, palatial, plushy pillows
Upholstered sofas, tasseled tapestries
Valued prized spoils of war
Wealthy coffers of the lucky highborn

I'Ll Cry When I Can

Barney backpack,
Cowboy Boots,
Little tow-head
boy. 

Tasseled  hat, 
Winners robe,
Fine young
man.


Issued backpack, 
Army boots,
Future straight 
ahead.

I'll be okay when
you leave, Then cry
when I can.

To a Turkey

Noble, regal tasseled turkey prominent, pendulous wattle, garb of iridescent feathers, and bright red dangly snood. Your stately gait pleases my eye and your beloved, peculiar gobble sends particular pleasure to my ear May you forever strut your stuff(ing)!

New Birth

The corn is sweeping low;
her tasseled head is bent,
as dying souls lament
about the waning glow.
This life too quickly fades,
thin mists that pale the glade.

In furrows dark and dry,
the kernels, hard, that fall
beneath the autumn squall,
now lie alone. Awry
the seed the wind propelled
to propagate the veld.

So life reflects the corn
that dies to bloom reborn.

We All Wanted To Be a Baton Twirler

Twirling their flashing batons in a fabulous fashion
Two high steppers with tasseled boots led the parade
All of us third grade girls wanted white boots now
And a full short skirt with matching panties
And naturally, the giant glitzy light up baton.
Only one of us got a light up baton
It was too heavy for her to lift
which was a bit of consolation for the rest of us.
Especially those of us who had not gotten the boots either.

Love's Course

In the meadow
I am alive
hair tasseled
From my lover
The summer rain
begins  to fall
Washing away secret kisses
Planted heavily on my rose lips
My tortured soul
Awaits our next adventure
Till then your name
Weighs heavy on my heart
Hurting for my soul-mate
To come and find me
In the meadow
Where the weeping willow hides
Our nakedness and tickles our necks
As we are free
From all the onlookers
Who scorn at our flirtation

The Motorcyclist

In the rear view is a big slab rider in
tiger prints on the open road.

Off the pike and down the route, I
see my breath she sees the inside of
a brain bucket lid.

Crispy corn snakes slither between those
bubble gum wheels, I see my breath she
parts the fog with hot drag pipes.

Her gore-tex grips those tasseled ape hangers, in
armor head to toe.

The silence breaks into four-banger parade,
I see my breath she lets off the
binder and flogs up the dawn.

Goodbyes

Leaving behind buckling barns leaning in weeds grown high,
Tin roofs toned by flaking rust and balanced precariously
On scaly lumber of storm-washed gray,
Endless rows of tan tasseled corn and browning soybeans—
A darkened clump of distant trees,
A froth of dust billowing up behind a dented truck
Held togehter by fading patchwork seams—

When the mind sketches impressions
With farewell glances,
And creates masterpieces from
Emotions thick with vanishing color,

Goodbyes become brutal paintings.
