Beauty’s Beast
Hanging hope on garden roses
Licking love from silver spoons
On the run in tundras frozen
Throwing howls at the moon
No true way to leave the castle
Though you came here on your own
Sometimes you are a prisoner
Sometimes you’re on the throne
Though his rugged mange offends you
His venom’s nothing new
Still he keeps

The Tundra
Oh, tundra vast, where winds do bite,
Where summer's day is winter's night.
A land of fire, ice, and sheep,
Of brooding skies that rarely sleep.
We thrive on lava, moss, and pride,
Though sometimes feel the world outside
Forgets we’re more than Björk and Cod—
Our quirks, our quirrels, our Viking squad.
We’re quiet folk, a tad reserved,
With humor dry, and smiles

Tundra of the Soul
I am the tundra barren cold and numb
A frozen wasteland where no light can reach
Between these poles, my insatiate self-succumbs.
In icy silence where no whimpers humb
My thoughts like glaciers grind, erode, and breach
I am the tundra, barren, cold, and numb.
The Amazon within once vital thrumb
Of life and hope now withers out of reach
Between these poles

The Frozen Tundra
I'm Canadian eh! from the frozen tundra
Stored food for the winter, so I'm a little rotunda
Not worried a bit
Soon be back in fit
How I made it though winter, it's a wond-a

Tundra - Desert - Mirage
The red-throat trawled me to a shanghaied shore
then left me raw in split-sedated state.
A sense of morning meant the lamp lit late
and when I dream I taste a little gore,
but it was peaceful there, upon that shore.
And how I prayed it would disintegrate.
And for the waters to evaporate.
And for the dark to dredge the ocean

Tundra
Azure waves roll,
across golden fields,
Where he lies waiting,
for the Heartland-
Heavens,to blanket him
with bliss.
Floating down a river
of quite bronze earth
Guided by hands,
of Iowan seraphim.
He dreams of sacred
Alaska,
heavenly
technicolor
light shows,
and ancient tundra
not yet disturbed.

Orgasmic Frozen Tundra
black path of structure
dissecting the dark spring
green sun glow yellow lines
dividing the road to heaven
artificial lights flashing guiding
in the natural sun
i am perspiring
erect and tired the roar of
the machine in the empty minds
we are accelerating velocity
is directed acceleration i remember
we climb at the end of the visible land
orgasmic frozen tundra

Limerick : Once a Cossack in tundra cassock
Once a Cossack in tundra cassock
Crept to spy on his wife : got a shock
She lay stooped in prayer
Without a stitch on her
Guess whose head was on the butcher’s block ?

This Tundra of Ice
Barren and innocent
This Tundra of ice
A marvel within us
Perfect, concise
Below sunsets of pure
We're blessed to grace
To witness such beauty
On this wonderful place
Barren and innocent
Is this Tundra of ice
It's our future legacy
Let's keep it precise

Hot Hate Filled Tundra.
se and scream to lobby your sanity,
I need not pain to know I'm real,
Imburse the notes locked in your vanity.
I need not light to see your spiel.
I cannot change you, you already know the truth,
Each leaf on trees signify lies told in stride,
People forgiving for themselves, and the release inside.
Forgive me for i have no
