A school teacher named Miss Shaw
Though well-endowed wore no bra.
Things slipped and jiggled
Bounced and wiggled
Pupils are still awed by what they saw.
Poetry is different
when spoken than read
The words more musical
outside my head
No longer imprisoned
or held on the page
Their freedom unharnessed
—the voice of an age
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
SOMETIMES MOMENTS
because it was unplanned
filled the air untainted
music unharnessed
an unadulterated artistic release
life’s precious treasures
reminds
there’s always a path
a pure capture of ecstasy
one with easy recall
reminds us
moments
~armand
My dreams draw from roots of reality,
That grow unharnessed to myth and fantasy.
As they reach hidden heights of the ethereal,
Only to awaken with imagination carefully.
The journeys often lead to lands familiar,
Where joy is the flavor that I share.
And as long as I steer clear of my worst fears ...
I'll bravely avoid those resembling nightmares.
Before the Roman legions carved a road
This stallion coursed across the chalk ridge brow
Unharnessed, free or by a king bestrode
Like wave traversing grassland free of plough
It still pursues its quest yet even now
Note: This is the oldest of the many white horses carved into chalk hillsides across southern England. It has been dated to The Bronze or Iron ages. (Pre-Roman occupation)
When is physical restraint equipment
also dirty laundry?
When your daughter vomits
all over her school bus transport harness,
When she could have more safely,
and less expensively, traveled
in a six-seat van
with her contenting seat belt on
Rather than shackled to her seat
and unshackled into her school
Where all unharnessed big girls and boys
hierarchically go
to not air their dirty laundry.
vulnerable shoulders scantily clad
bare of protecting pauldron
without his strong arms encompassing
chest underdressed
short of a shield
without his beating breastplate pressing
helmet unharnessed
mind recklessly unleashed
without comforting thoughts of our melding
beaming brass unattached
sword unwielded for defense
strong arms to swing ~ missing
