Stacked Chips
Azzure night calls
rush blurry eyes
Pigeons came a calling
Waterloo I curse you
morning came a sneaking
The unaccustomed scratch gilded fear
Suited clad
screeches the acceptable
Strange exiles disowns the Thames

Dressing Up
Dressing Up
David J Walker
Dressed as if the place was packed
Stacked
With men and women dressed from
Racked
Expressions of power and success
Red power tie
Blue blazer
Black oxfords
Black dress
Low cut slow
To the
Silver pearls below
Daring to show
Enough to know
what you are missing
And stilettos if you dare
Draped
And faked
Dressed
But

The Sky Is On Fire
The sky's on fire
time to run is now too late
to pray now-- time's up.
The sky has turned black
run for your life now, fireman
too late for you now.
the sky has turned red
fire is over the top
of the trees now, run.

Our Words Stacked As Skyscrapers
OUR WORDS STACKED AS SKYSCRAPERS
THE world is committed to insanity;
our words stacked as skyscrapers
allow ants characters to escape
flooding water
as drowned bodies float
past the windows of office space.

Dreams Neatly Stacked
Never giving it all
Never losing it all
False wisdom
From the voices of drought
Emptying my heart
With a soul left in parts
All promises
Vain wishes in doubt
But giving it all
New rain started to fall
My eyes opening up
From inside
The clouds pulling back
Showing dreams neatly stacked
Where my will and my spirit
—reside

Stacked Rhyme: Try To Create a Stacked Rhyme
Try to create a stacked rhyme;
My new elate! Play whacked chimes
High. Few relate! Days lacked time's
Eyes too. Restate ways facts climb.
Guys, who debate paid back dimes,
Buy dues we hate. Stay! Track crimes
By clues. See fate lay tact primes.

Stacked Rhyme: When I Go To Pay My Rent
When I go to pay my rent,
In lies, no true, say I spent
Yen. Why so few stay high? Vent
Sins! Cry woes! New ways by, went
Men. Guys show blues play eyes. Cents
Spend! Buy lows who may die. Gents
Win sly dough; Views day skies sent.

Stacked Rhyme: Walk a Mile In My Two Shoes
Walk a mile in my two shoes.
Stalk days, while men spy through views
Talked. Stay! Aisles thin by new pews.
Balk! Weigh miles, when eyes, who choose
Caulked ways, file sin. Cry blue blues!
Chalk gray smiles, then try to schmooze
Gawks. Pray vile kin die. True dues!

Disappointment: Stacked Rhyme 10-30-2012
Let some hope dreams reach arms
first,
Yet come cope. Seems each charm
burst
Frets from dopes' schemes. Speech
harms worst.
Debts numb popes. Teams preach
warm thirst;
Wet rum. Roped beams breech
barms! Cursed
Vets hum mopes! Streams leech!
Farms nurse
Pet bums? Nope! Gleams screeched
swarmed hearse!

Stacked Deck
Declared debris? ... O' woe is me!
I am a just a chubby club of three..
Beyond the two, ... before the four
Not the card I hoped to be
If I could choose, I'd be much more!
I’d wear a crown, and be the king
But, what the heck….the deck is stacked!
A crying shame…to have a name
that holds
