a tired group of Viking Thrauls
festive banquet halls...

limited by fantasies
raging unchecked
undermine life
stifling the little promise
left....

In History, Nelson fought the Spanish
This powerful Armada did vanish
My ancestor was in thrall
Kismet Hardy had a ball
No invasion, the infidels, banished...

Soft the morning comes
    steals into my hushed room...

  Nay! Glorious child of God!
    in Majesty's thrall

  Fling wide the casements

Angry Poet

each time I see a pen
ideas well up in my ken
each time I see a paper
I'm a frenzied Rapper:

tools for man's thrall
or tools for his downfall!

Erotic dreams
are in the minds of us all
once entered, they thrall
for in them, passion abounds
in reality, they sound

Another Love

You hold me in thrall
Charm me with your demeanor
And draw me to you
Like a kindergarten kid 
Is, by a wayside puddle.

Submitting internal thoughts,
in abound
In the seeing what's around
found,
Seeing the seen, to unseen
human themes
It's us, all, the human thrall
where we'll fall

There's a man with some folks in his thrall

who is adamant about a wall.

Don't be rough on the prez;

like the one adage says:

It is better "say nothing at all."

Scarlet-orange sun rose brightly,
As the cerise stars shine nightly.
Honey sunshine caressed flowers-
A gold thrall twixt silver showers;
And ruffled, plum breeze came lightly....

chewing 
misery
a dagger 
in the morsel
jabbed 
slash on the heart
an evil thrall
enslaved 
my conscience
my mother the morsel
she rebirthed 
as the chicken
i just ate

Cobalt cragged peaks amidst clouds 
Cathedrals they are, proud so tall
Years of erosion now shout loud
My eyes now view in total thrall
Their reflections upon natures pure
Sharing many marvels from her brochure...

The best laid plans of men unravel
while on a lesser road of travel,
     (If plans were made at all)
when by demand of gut and gavel,
dues must be paid to dirt and gravel
     for time spent in their thrall....

Two things at once can both be true
A trial you passed, a verdict past due
No longer in thrall,
A demon recalled
Will cease to have power over you

I love holding you in my arms
Bodies entwined,
Breathing of life and contentment
Together

And as I hold you in my arms
I loathe
That all my mind can do-
Week in the thrall of content-
is Hold you some more....

A poem's made of anything
    a pile of stones, a piece of string

  And poets come from anywhere
    across the sea, in thrall of prayer  

  Tell me please what they all share
    ~ a yen to reach for rarest air...

Caught in the thrall of moonlight

she dances alone, swaying

to the rhythm of the stars

singing to the sky

a-lonewolf may stand tall
all pride, stride, and thrall
at times in which they fall
a-loneliness starts to crawl

the abrupt long for someone
animating desires to be one
shut down at the sight of ego
default to the outcast hero...

Endlessly we wander on,
thinking that the time is gone.
endlessly it follows all,
reaching forward in its thrall.
never resting, always waiting,
inevitably confiscating
that which all of us hold dear,
years go by as death draws near....

To get the multi-dudes to march as one,
to raise humanitys' flag, yet some,
don't think it cant' be done,
cos Facebook reaches all, 
computers phones the thrall,
6 billion will agree,  
buggers like you n me,
Equality is fun....Don...

THAW




The fearsome ice
Held us all in thrall
  - Mighty,  weeks ago  -
Now bows its head 
To the sun’s holy fire:
Subjugated without grace,
Piercing ice spears dulled,
Cold grip pulled loose,
Harsh white glare commuted
To green gaze....

Statistical Sunday that starts fights
Along with bringing many delights
One simple cowhide ball
So called centralized thrall
Bringing outward competitive rights

No way!
am I a
pessimist,
a realist,is what
I say-
I am
not an ass,
donkey maybe
definitely,male not
a lass-
I talk
very slow,
but this I know
fresh sweet carrots help my
words flow-
slowly
one by one,
this pleasing drawl
holds all my many fans,
in thrall
