Surfeit Poems | Examples


Surfeit

Serenades, his lies. 
Soothing sweetness, it singes.
Stumped sorries, she sweeps.

SURFEIT OF THE SENSUOUS
unbroken
an entirety
  in a defined setting
toward&away
 with resonance
   & style
 long
&vibrant
  fidelity
    isolated from tradition


THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

Surfeit of Spam

Here, there is a surfeit of spam,
Fed to us by government man,
Democracy's harrowing tale,
Setting us up to fail,
Pollies' synchronised team,
Is all this what it seems?
Total cant and hypocrisy,
A merit myth of futility,
Spam surfeit, no caring beyond duty......

Surfeit

A shirtfront full of tiny red tomatoes
That took the time it takes to eat a half dozen
Bursting on my teeth to drown my thirst

Stepping on both sides of a row of beets
Carefully avoiding the sharper leaves of eggplants
Flip flops crushing fallen fruit  to reach the redder ripe

It took a walk past five humming bird feeders,
Five sun flower trees full of half plucked blossoms
Chirp, she loves me. Cheep, she loves me not.

A leaning row of escaping egyptian onions
Clusters catching on loose clothing
On stalks of  sun seeking green

Summer has exploded around us once again
The kitchen is adorned with Nature's gifts
As am I with two legs full of poison ivy
Taunting me to scratch and spread it
