every day I see our president
Trump proclaims that he will be president 
his image haunts my dreams
dystopian nightmares propels my dreams 
as the president proclaims he is president 
the end of republic follows 
no one hears our screams
He ushers in endless dreams 
fascism inspires 
our collective screams

Those Ten Words

It began with the corrosion of feelings
And the signature was imperative
To seal the agreement on hand
The confused circumstances
It cuddled the thoughts

The subconscious of the soul remembered
And the attach mind and body
To surprise everyone
Would leave contort faces
The align of the inevitable

Memories of Love-Ten Words

Memories of Love – Ten Words

Love like a twirling tempest, 
whirled us to an uncharted shore 
of unbridled, sublime, sensuality,
gifting me with moonlit memories 
that would never be forgotten.

How I savored those kisses from your lips… 
milk chocolate lips flavored with the 
lingering tangy taste of fresh, luscious, 
wild, ripened, crimson raspberries…
dipped in cool whipped

Forgotten Son Rise - Ten Words

She stares into the misty morning shadow;
a crimson sky just breaking the distant shore. 
Once an endless tempest of doubt she'd grow;
His grace no longer forgotten; her faith He'd restore.

Each yesterday devoid of any compassion. 
Her dreams are filled with tenderness and affection 
but she knew not love of any depth or fashion.
The harvest of

Fun With Ten Words Ten Lines

Deja Vu; I believe that's what knowing minds call this anomaly. 
Another Baroque tinged ballroom boasting bona fide blue-bloods.
Poorly feigned elan for the singing dilettante causing the cacophony. 
The ennui in the room due, I'm sure, to the
 artistic Carte Blanche given the chirping dud.
It's time someone demonstrate "avant-garde;" give them an actual reason for

Anomaly don't enter contests like this
the style is a bit avant-garde,
I'm a bit of an oldie, preferring baroque
and finding this bona fide hard.
The cacophony of words dancing round in my head,
carte blanche to use this ten word list,
this is my third attempt, seems a bit deja-vu
but my dilettante side can't resist.
Not sure if I can

After a long ennui of big wave competitions
surfers take to Oahu's North Shore "to go for baroque."
For these bonafide big wave riders hanging ten

Waves peaking it's face into the eyes of the brave,

Grandmother Always Encouraged

As I stood in front of the baroque painting
"Old Woman and a Boy with Candles", by Sir Peter Paul Rubens
instantly trigger a warped déjà vu. 
An ebullient cacophony of absent voices I used to have with my grandmother. 
She would give me carte blanche around her home.
It was an embarrassing anomaly I couldn't

My Artist Friend - Another Ten Words

Among artists, she is something of an anomaly—
Traditional and avant-garde, austere and baroque,
Yet a bona fide artist nonetheless. 
Amid the cacophony of modernism, 
Where iconoclasm gives Carte-blanche 
To jettison all rules and form and coherence—
A kind of fauvist deja-vu in distorted echoes—
She, neither dilettante nor polemicist,
Has genuine elan, and force, and passion--
In contrast to pandemic,

TEN WORDS, TEN LINES 2

She possessed a baroque sense of the love of music
Her avant-garde anomaly led to a cacophony of laughter
Her misconceived dilettante for this great art
Was put forth with great aplomb  
Truly an elan display producing an ennui of de ja vu
Predicated on her previous display of the art
Though she thought it

We Remain-Inspired By Ten Words Ten Lines Contest

It is September and I fly over the twilight with my
Brothers and sisters, luscious ripples of a moment,
Pellucid waters underneath.
We are mockingbirds escaping this menagerie
Of thoughts, pouring in, to infuse our lifeline, our
Bloodline, drinking the nectar of the Frangipani,
As it turns our feathers to acrylic and 
We live, once again, in nothing but vermilion sunsets
