Short Vapid Poems

Venus vexed my vapid visage
Easing me into an eternity of emptiness...

Vapid morning light
fails me, while you passes down.
And immorally
I can not help but make your
reflection in my liquid....

American clothing,
American wear,
American business,
American hair,
Culture so vapid,
Culture so strong,
Why does this make,
My culture wrong....

Even love when fret
its essence lost last year
though smiled
but still flirting
a dusty horizon
of course, a tale too vapid
for me to overwhelm....

I'm surrounded by them
suffocating
lip drooling
vapid
dangerous

distress from disorder
the devil in a bad man's suit

they are coming
they are here...

i felt my skin crawl
and a foreign emotion
rise up in me, fury
at this man staring at me
with vapid, glazed eyes
and flogging his private bishop
in his 8x8 concrete room....

HEART GLANCE, EPISODE ONE
I glimpse at my virgin lips, 
Which adore the flesh behind your charming ribs,
Creating heavy thoughts from heavy tips,
Nah! I won't stare at the vapid hips....

Vile creature of the night;
vice unquenched, sees her, the
victim, innocent, warm;
veins lush with blood. He feeds
vacates, leaves behind a
vapid ashen corpse; her
vital signs fade to naught....

I swear Sir! 
Enough of that!
Your unwanted fervor
Driving me mad, insane;
Your empty ambitions, 
Vapid stories,
No manners;
To make it short –
Go to Hell and stay awhile 
Or may be longer…
I swear, Sir!...

Literary bridge to nowhere
Without compass, pen as guide
Through rambling discourse
O'er every jagged meter
Free, rhythymless strides
Unconsciously retreading again
Stumbling every step
Into vapid, lyrical retreat....

A vacuum cleaner should glide
And relief from messes provide
It is quite unlike
Harley Davidson's bike
Since the dirtbag's on the inside



Author's note: Someone told me this vapid joke at work today, so I framed it as above--enjoy!...

Dancing to the tune of iniquity,
Deviously artless in their silent retreat,
Elusively lashing out unjustly, 
Pelting out timorous creeds;
A casualty in their vapid beliefs,
Brought upon by diligent lunacy, 
Primed in erroneous ideologies....

Religious votives
light a somber lair.
A hole I fathered
with rhinestones of doubt
and swatches of fault.

Sentinels loom -
vapid gargoyles
crouch in ghostly
contemplation

ogling my
handiwork.
Poised to pounce

when the
flames die

out....

this 
liminal
           utopia
a vapid
         vapour
implodes
          before our
eyes:

we stand 
            fixated
in gravitas,
             the sublime
in retreat,
        our mood blunt:
in fugitive mode
we clutch at hope
naked
      in our essence...

I fall-
tumbling silent,
as water cascading the drain,
acid rain pounding the dark 
asphalt,
Toronto welcome me home.
Heartbroken and raw;
the vapid shell and carcass,    
a scrap of paper, empty,
white, incomplete,
drifting silent through the 
streets,

With chapters still unwritten....

Xanthous vipers crumble and
Copulate on pallid bursts
Of violent ash and vapid sand
Drunken blows to swollen bones
Macabre and salty, bitter and grand

While wolven maws abuse brash lips
Gluttonous passion
Simmers on pendulum hips

Thrashing crests of poignant skin
Fevered, gasping, blissful sin...

Like it or not it is the best place to be in the MORNING.

The mimosa; often where I did meet MOURINE.

Pretty thing, she caught me with her charm as she danced the "HOLA"

In a trance, her cold lips whispered in my ear "DARLING"

Gosh 'twas just a dream stolen by the vapid noise of the STARLING....

Aberrant
Blind Bushs'
Crude callous
Debauched democracy,
Elevating
Fabricated facts
Garnering grizzly
Hell
In Iraq.
Jaundiced justified
Killing
Myriad
Numbers
Of other
People,
Quickly
Reassuring
Safety
To those
United ultras'
Vaporous vapid
World with
Xyloid
Yuppie

How many people are that stupid
Asked the hot and they brought the tepid,
For a sweet tale released the vapid
Reflect on hatred,. "No, on Cupid"
Get us The tasty "No Insipid"?

How many would wait to spend last quid
On water for being Nature's liquid?
How many people that much stupid
For survival face just lipid?...

Sometimes it seems as if
Everyone has gone to sleep
Even while the sun shines,
And there is no gloom of night.

The world is full of vapid conversation,
Evergreens of low expectations,
Empty thoughts,
Valley girls, 
Cups of coffee,
And jiggers of gin.

Poets are waiting 
To bring the frozen people,
Kicking and screaming,
Out of the chaos of mindlessness....

Today is a miserable day
Seemingly operatic in nature
But I feel it deep within me
I feel this void building up inside my chest
A malignant emptiness
The cause of my shallow breath

My tears dry in their ducts
Dapper attire cannot hide the discomfort
No one should see my pain
For any vapid empathy towards me
Would do nothing
But fuel this pernicious attack on my soul...

You steal my heart
You embroil my life
Love is kind of art
You become my love.

I think about you all day along 
I cannot deny the feeling in me
Love visits me as a guest for long
Love does not want to leave me. 

I treat you as a simple person at first
But now you are not as simple as I thought
Cause you are the one who makes me exist
You are the one for whom I can live....

Blinded by pain
blanketed by darkness
shrouded in misery
i stare into space
is there an eternity ?

engulfed in emptiness
bleakness consumes me
i reach out for deliverance
but the clutches of my demons
push me in deeper

lost in a maze
i feel life pulsating
in the tears which escape me
in the vapid heartbeat
in the agony flowing through me
i embrace it all 
as i lie waiting for 
life to seize me....

Short spates of workaholic spurts of frenzied work.
A burst of starlight
That ignites the black,
Blights the black,
Fights the black,
Rights the black
Until the dark silence returns,
Until the frantic moments
Are usurped 
By doldrums of daunting inertia,
A vast swathe of offensive nothingness,
A vapid vessel of pensive emptiness,
A quagmire of numbness,
Blindness, dumbness
And a brutal sense of futility....

Vapid vicissitudes fade
Because we all know them
For they are life's poor grade
Graded by pain and pain
Felt by humanity,
Humans share suffering.

So tragedy is last
Not first we're told,
Telling lies to selves
Ourselves most tragic
Of all, is self loss.

Terms of terror
Unknown currents
Currently blind
Phobia's, all kinds.

Past echos,
Forgotten
Generation,

Torments
Trammel

These....
