Premium Member Prince Or Princess

Liberace: Was he Prince or Princess
The very question delivers winces
  Watch him on You Tube
  His joints sure look lubed
The key is when he walks that he minces

So What!

So what if I stand stranded
On the straits of Loneliness!

THIS is what I had demanded, 
N anythin more'd have been MEANINGLESS !

So what if my Trust floats wrecked,
N my heart winces with all the pain !

MAYBE, its all part of the Great Plan
   



N in Patience, would I gladly teach myself to trust again.

Music To Her Ears

Headphones sizes too big
For the little girl in red
Mother smiles as she listens as her child sings

Needle sizes too big
For the little girl in red
Mother swallows tears as she watches as her child winces

Burden sizes too big
For the little girl in red
Mother applaudes as her daughter, her child, bravely bears all

Remission
Victory
A cure

Premium Member At His Side

he winces
when he thinks
i’m not watching
his throbbing pain
too hard to bear
his tears tug at my heart

his body twitches
into aching spasm
from stabbing stinging 
throbbing ache
refusing to let up

can’t lift a finger
to slash his anguish
i see him tortured
it breaks my heart

A Red Moonrise over the Coral Sea

Unexpectedly
inspired by a Péladan jeremiad,
the red moon laughs at the sea
and the possum-ness of the possum;
Churlish blood rays remain

a never never world utterance of the jungle,
Every lupercalian dragonfly
conspires with brooding
red hibiscus flowers;

On a night like this,
all creation winces and endures
before melting into a black water mirage
of broken feverish brush strokes
and fruit bats in a mangrove swamp.
