toga party waking up without my sheet...

Wide-eyed, hopeless, there he staggers

In his back a dozen daggers

Dying, toga turning red

You too Brutus? Caesar said...

Jesus in toga or tunic
Wrote notes that use symbols runic
But Trump Musk and Vance
Don loose yoga pants
To hide now each is a eunuch...

That freedom is a fine goddess
Is a keepsake to which we Americans are wise.
Her toga conceals timeless wounds
That once perhaps were lies....

There was a young man named John Bowman
Who was renowned as a bit of a showman
He practiced Yoga
Dressed in a toga
Convinced that he was a real Roman...

There was an old man from Saratoga
Who always wore an old Roman toga
Spice of parties they’d shout
Showing bony knees he’d flout
Till he froze to death in North Dakota....

Old Olfa’s an expert at yoga
and viewed as a bit of an ogre
When gals see him rise
They get a surprise
He’s naked beneath his white toga!

Tony wants to teach Mary some yoga,
While dressed in a short, little toga
He bends over the mat,
Where she just then had sat.
From jail Tony cannot now teach yoga....

It’s not all easy being favoured as a great gifted poet
All this deigning and stooping just to let people know it

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed toga keeps on snagging the door...

It’s not all easy being favoured the great gifted poet
All a deigning and stooping just to let people know it

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed white toga repeatedly snags the door...

It’s not all easy being favoured as a great gifted poet
All this deigning and stooping just to let people know it

They do deign but I just do so to see them pass 
Tomorrow perhaps worse they want to kiss my arse

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed toga keeps ruddy snagging the door...

MOVIE    LOVER


I always loved movies bad and good  
With great heroes  Heston and  Eastwood
With a fistful of commandments  and 
Toga  or  spurs  costumes, and  sand.
Forever fighting bad-guys and bad-acting,
In hot deserts where everyone was speaking 
English and even Jesus’ accent  had a Milwaukee strain,
And Israel  or Mexico were really  Spain....

No premise of permissiveness, positive!
A good judge must always be human, and always distressed...
The toga is not a superhero cloak...
It is known that the trapeze artist's illness
is to think he knows and can fly...
The lyrics kill life,
but the letter must be at the service of life...
Knowing that life is quicksand
let us be and continue as righteous...!
With our sacred missions....

It’s not all easy being favoured as a great gifted poet
All this deigning and stooping just to let people know it

They do deign but I just do so to see them pass 
Tomorrow perhaps worse they want to kiss my ass

But that’s not the worse of it and irritating much more
Is my fresh ironed toga keeps ruddy snagging the door

The Great Poet is most embarrassed using the word for a donkey for a fleshy nice shaped bottom for the sake of a silly rhyme !...

Hate hangs from me like a disintegrating cloak
It’s sickly oil tendrils trailing from me
It never gives passes
Eloquent in its misuse
Scratching its way through the sheerness. of the
slivers
Feeling so black that blue isn’t quite enough

Love drapes from me like a sculpted marble toga
It’s twirling twines exploding into fluff
It lives in the past and futures
Incoherently overused
It coddles in lessening touches of soft
Feeling the light before it lands...
