blood of poem runs thin
were great after they had been
famous and free from sin voiced
what I have believed
a great Horn poem you received
now I am relieved
latest and greatest
read Horn Haiku would suggest
have won a contest
he had been haughty
should see her beautiful body
news would be naughty
when we persevere
have a great happy new year
wish you had been here
incorrectly would do steer
my bad news will appear
car was not in gear
Do have a horrendous Horn Haiku
humorous numerous happy day on
display while I will plan to play and
start to pray

And signifying nothing, upon life’s stage
meaningless, endless, a cruel war he waged
Fretting and strutting, as the curtains narrowed
Out, out, foul vegan, who doth hate man’s marrow
Comes back for encore, to be mocked, and broken
Having found mere hate, vaunting the unspoken
A shadowless ghoul behind faint shrills of woe
Sans a candle, roams hell’s abattoirs below
A dedication of respect on the
nihilistic tragedy of Macbeth
# # #
Bastardised here indeed
but more so each day by
a bard who flunked all meaning in life
# # #
Yet has somehow found faith
in putrid flesh eating flowers
# #
No doubt whilst searching for a niche
on the last syllable of soybean @urd

He returned with peevish looks,
a condescending demeanor,
Vaunting as though his bones were made of rocks
and his sinews of brass,
bottled up acrimony burning from his bowels,
A prideful face, and a visage adorned with rage,
forty years of fury fueled from afar,
none could tame the lion,
cloaked with pretenses and false affiance
resentment buoyed, angst unrelenting.
the bitterest gall wells up like lava,
none could cure the brain malady,
The threath, the venom of a vermin.
Still Lurking,
though kept away by distance.

Glee sans fees
Slaps my face,
the chilled breeze
The horizon, light breaks
A great vision, eyes grasp
Early snowflakes, light takes.
To obliterate blues,
I Inhale energy
from those picturesque hues.
The waves nudge my legs, wash my soiled soul
Crest and troughs of tides, preach to face life
Bearing the fierce sun, sea sets the goal,
embracing tons of secrets, she grins.
Walking by her side, my soul just learnt
Dust inside, the first to dump in bin
And so ego and vaunting, I waive.
To show, fame is short-termed, in sand,
footprints I leave, my name I engrave

E- Eve has a special poetic expertise -
V- vaunting her fam'ly, which she touts with ease.
E- Eve embraces a mother's "loving caress"
R- relating "laughter" with unmatched finesse.
O- On "hand in hand" walks with the guy she treasures,
P- "pine trees and ponds" are their simple pleasures.
E- Eve expresses enduring faith in God's might
R- referring often to Christ as the Light.

Haunting Trump Taunting
Haunting Trump Taunting
And over our heads vaunting
Appearance daunting.
Bad news am shearer
And again the sad bearer
Trump holy terror.
Party inviting
A President presiding
He should be hiding.
Always occurring
Politics and posturing
Some things still stirring.

DISQUIETING
moonblued crooks stoneblack built
granite rough shadows sliced thin
adorned in fleece flossed films
drinking
sour grapes from acid cups
diced moon rinds with a
meagre shine
yawped vaunting thoughts of
nymphatic cold visions that
hold no pairing decisions
starving fantasies deplete
desperate food for thought
seagreened darkpurpled
dreaming we were perfect
and we were….
we didn’t hear or see
the fear
bubbles about to break
we rose with caution
toward the skies
and died
satisfied

Our ritual tree for transcendence doth aspire
A garnished trinket our crest will require
A fabricated mold with polished attire
A gleaming sentinel; a burnished squire
A sacral vestement on evergreen spire
With gilded insignia from divine shire
An angelic emanation descended from heavenly choir
Who heralds glad tidings on his mercantile Lire
A pure relic cleansing an organic sire
Mercurial splendor crowning an earthen pyre
O'er residual chaff rises an immortal signifier
A glorious diadem; a pious magnifier
From bequeathed penury; heart of penitent friar
Spiritual token vaunting our prayers higher
