Pearls Before Swine

So many pearls before the swine
He didn’t know which to pick
So fell asleep and dreamed to fly
Straight up to some Alpean peak
There he took selfies, drank high tea
And then he flew back home
Down to the native piggery
Where one day he was born
His dream was suddenly cut short
No pearls around he saw
He yawned and in surprise he snored
Chewed pensively a straw
He thought “if I were not a swine
A butterfly I’d like to be
On multicoloured wings I’d fly
This time towards the sea.”

Pearls Dipped in Swine

     Pardon me, sir
       But your fly is unzipped

    Deeply offended 
       The ‘sir’ offered 
    To sock me in the lip 

     I responded in kind 
        We swung at the same time 

     Bottom line ~
        Our teeth now 
     Like ‘pearls dipped in swine’

Piggy

Oh, the piggy loves you
The piggy loves me
The piggy is homeless, 
yessiree. 

Give the pig a cookie
Give the pig a bed
Or maybe a sarcophagus, 
in case the piggy's dead.

Punch'm in the snout
Poke'm in the eye
Take the piggy home 
and dump'm in the sty

Mujhay apna paltu khinzir bana
Mujhay kutay ki moot marwaa..

Rise of the Swine

For the swine shall arise 
from the river of fire
armed with the hammer 
of scornful desire 
seeking to feast
in its blood thirsty rage
on the meek and the feeble 
the weakened of age 

From his black soulless eyes
to his char crusted snout
alas he emerges
to trample about
fanning his flames 
he shall rise ever higher
this aching unquenchable 
belly of fire

All that remains 
in the wake of his gorge 
are the bloody and broken 
his hammer will forge
wildly swung
with a feverish scorn
as the people will wail 
of remorse as they mourn 

While the temperature rises
still higher and higher
Be but warned
of your burning desire
death and destruction
is all we acquire 
when the swine shall arise
from the river of fire

A Herd of Swine

Oh Lord, please put me in the clear
Though a man like  me shouldn't have your ear
It sounds so silly in my mind
To call upon Who I defy
That's why
I'm like a demon now
Praying only to be swine
Oh Lord, I trample out a path
And you ingest the aftermath
I kind of liked that cross of mine
Put it round my neck 
Left you behind
That's why
I'm like a demon now
Praying only to be swine

Pearls Before Swine

Drove past your old house, slowin' just because..
perhaps just to return to scene of the crime.
Kinda sad to find nothing left as once was, 
proof your lapdog better comfort than I.

Came to settle all old grievances,
finish what once so well begun, though breaking. 
My mistake in guess, you shined in happiness,
and the whole world was yours for the taking.

I know feet weren't meant to trample a heart,
and finer hands never meant my soul undone. 
Maybe there's hope for us, a chance at new start, 
can't hold my breath waitin' that day will come.

I touched your citrus seed, tasted tender skin., 
though forgot to quench thirst from sweet juice within.

Swine

America rots in the corpse
Of a swine
Wipe away the blood
You filthy liar
The world cries out
Only a gunshot
Just a single gunshot

Beautiful Swine

Beauty without modesty
Oink oink oink
Look at me,
See how I shine,
How loud I squeal,
Yet empty inside,
Is how I feel,
I am unsure of my worth
So I dress up ugly with a skirt,
Parade around 
Take a vote.
Collecting baggage
As I go.
Heavier and heavier
My burden gets
A pig to market
O jiggety jig
Someone Always
Needs a pig
Beauty grows
From the inside out
Timeless shine 
That won't fade out
Beauty is as 
Beauty does
Special and treasured
A treat for your love,
Vanity only dirties
The fair dove

Pearls and Swine

Snuffling for truffles
Scenting morsels of delight
Delirious swine

Drowning in the oyster beds
Drunk on mysterious wine

Wine and a Swine

The weaker 
the wine, 
the bleaker 
the swine.

2009 To the Swine

i wanted to beg you to hold me. 

i laid on my back, trying to catch my breath, 
but you wouldn't have noticed. 
you wouldn't have wanted to understand my yearning for any emotional connection. 

you wonder where my voice has gone as my tongue gags me in attempts to hold back 
three ferocious words... 
i focus on slowing my heartbeat and try not to notice your eyes diverting mine. 

fool me once, shame on you. 
fool me twice, shame on the both of us.

Pearls Before Swine

home is where the heart is 
      I spewed forth my guts
laid open the treasure chest 
and offered up the crown jewels
while the swine cast
     their dung in the entrails

Ducks Vs Swine

When swine 
Feel sheen
Then ducks
Feel shy
