Swindlers Poems

Mistress Lana thinks she is
my Central Committee guru
sends her greetings to the downtrodden masses
she's downtrod a bit of real estate in her day
ground under her boot heel
investment swindlers and barbershop quartets
at the kaleidoscope factory
perforated by her errant profundities
we are all...Read More

How many times
One dream so it seems? One fight
one more addiction or confliction
Is it in one card prediction
Did someone tell you
they love you
There you go the cry

Or they need you
Don't ask why-?
How they used you
Only one time you were
too good
You...Read More

 God Almighty,  Jehovah, Brahman, Adonai,  Allah
Lord of the Worlds
Oh, God Almighty,
Indeed you are the power over my mind,
the light in my eyes,
the Guide to the good of what I hear,
the humility of my heart,
and
the compassion in my...Read More

If  we could delight in everyone  with kindness
Our world will be peaceful, never alienating
The ideals and hopes of women, children,
As the freedom of life  is a man’s birthright :
Yet, swindlers deceive  people  who seek
A ...Read More

If there is life there 
must be an encounteration.
Even the moons and 
the suns, all get to return 
back if they passed 
to their eventual 
transportation. The morning
lights shunned and pass 
like flying clouds. When the 
deadlines had past during...Read More

We need new sheriffs whom will uphold law properly 
taking these monkey's into account for their corrupt action
and addressing facts on these cowboy's 
that are held by public opinion as gangsters in uniform

Lawbreakers bring them down a peg or two...Read More

And memories still linger 
memories of choruses of swindlers
singing melodies 
in criminally inclined rhapsodies
minimally inspired to stop the crime
i floundered, yes i fumbled 
and practically watched them
making off with time
mostly mine, some of it pilfered
some of it taken straight up...Read More

Lost in New York 

Brechtian  
city of Mahogonny
within the city of jungles
we make our way

The gilded city of Gotham 
Sketched forests of the mind 
Find solace under subterranean 
Metal cells of human life 

Thundering rattling cages 
Scream through iron...Read More

Unquotable quotes: Witch-Doctors and Tribal Headmen – XXV (Part Two)

Which Asian “King” would crown himself “Emperor” during an elaborate theatrical ceremony while facing and exhorting the ruins of his Illustrious Ancestor’s capital?
Which commoner army captain would seize power through skill...Read More

If Lance Armstrong isn’t King of Cheaters
He’s most certainly on the royal court
No soul to sell, that former world-beater
Poster boy for putting self before sport

The town’s old sheriff, asleep at the wheel
Cheaters get a tiny slap on the hand
Much more...Read More

Brainwashed to think you’re free
By men who think they know
They lead you on and you follow
While all you are is a devotee
They think of you as a sheep in a flock
While you follow on and hand your head
You help them...Read More

Today I met a woman of one hundred and one years
All her faculties in full cooperation
And while hypnotized by her discernment
What in hindsight was most likely a fleeting thought
Is now a conceivable notion
A true encounter with the aging
Is one rarely...Read More

I thought Pedro was playing a joke,
lying so still out there in the dewy grass,
just outside of Mr. Anderson rusty red barn, as if he'd croaked.
Hopping closer, careful not to raise suspicion about my upright posture,
I noticed Pedro's furry chest...Read More

All The Best  in 2009

Conquer this Fort
from the selfish worms
Rule this land with mercy and
shower love as rain on us
Ruin the roots of terrorism and
pave the way to happy and glee
Save our race from the cruels
Redeem their heritage from...Read More

Standing in line, I saw you over there.
Purchasing your ticket to the "Lust County Fair."

Your lips were locking at the County kissing booth..
Looking more like "exchanging of the tongues" than just a smooch.

On the ferris wheel, your hands where all...Read More
