Shakespeare to a Fault
Aerie and fairie and fluffee and floss
The future in essence belongs to us.
We sift and discover it,
Part ways to deliver it,
And circumnavigate that which we have dislodged.
Ode to the resilient,
Ode to the wise,
We spend our life retaining
The rote they have dispensed,
And narry a regret have they despaired.
My horse for a future
I decry to the stars!
What is theirs is my right,
I’ll assert solemnly
To the knaves within the range that I’ll smite,
And I’ll pilfer the peasants
And sequester the virtuous
For want of an edict
That they would mine accost!
All for this a glorious captive audience
And the tribute shall follow.
The horseless troops back to the citadel,
Supported in the hearts
Of the prostrate multitude
Who partake of their rigorous rewards.

Maybe it’s real or maybe it’s feel. Maybe it’s not a note but a gnat. I can’t tell too well just from the smell. I can’t smell too well anyway and it’s never too welly to smell it with hay.

Draining Resolve
Conscience en panache
Two-faced and unabashed
The gall of a smug self-entourage
That pinches the witness
And his sense of fitness
And profits him in newfound “it”ness.
What can be more cunning
More indefensibly stunning
And as indefatigably funning
Than a quality control
Of a nattering session toll
Where the static atmosphere can loll
And accrue around each guest,
Put stale gossip to rest,
Prone for spice and vigour to ingest
And make a dialogue
That translates to demagogue
From an ephemeral bog.
The murky cool of pride
Overwhelms the risk inside
Before a chance has died
And been justly squared away
In return of the day,
In obtrusive array,
And remarks the pause
Of the commoners’ natural awes
As he wends through their laws
Enjoying his own company,
Ignoring the staunch litany
Of peripheral prices and their tyranny.

Nice one, that last one, alakungfu.

Well...
I know it should be our work
But English is not my original language
So I ll get a hammer, and a fork
Go sit in the garage
Grunt and utter like an Ork
And throw you this garbage.
But, to save my neck
I also throw you
This one which is a heck
And surely is not written by Larry, Curly and Moe:
Ladies and Gentlemen, Edgar Alan Poe.

*Fill here with the best Poe you know.
(my original choice was Annabel Lee )

Bat but bit bet bot
Bat.
Two chickens are walking on a street
and a bat suddenly fell at their feet.
But.
They chuckle swingle rumble
Oh mighty Chi-cken they mumble
Bit.
Take care of your birds
a bit because we're not thirds
Bet.
Laid a wager on who would win
or regret our ethernal sin
Bot.
At night we'll be flying rats
just not to lose the mot.
:crash:

Trouble Staker
Once upon a cad
a miscreant called
a scoundrel’s bluff
hemming in the villain
in his own reprobate trail
making a rebel
of the malefactor
when the criminal turned and ran
leaving the offender
the suspected fugitive.
-
It was ugly when they
threw out the cutlery
after the burglary.

It's attractive to speculate. In one's mind's eye, one does it, with an elan that
oh, in practice, mon petit, it is not so easy, ones expectations, ones hopes...
One learns to negotiate as one gets older between this kind of pearly credulity
and the cool soldering of one's vision to a practically possible picture of
gravitationally conventional day-to-day hyperactive proactivity.
Well,
that's the way we do things in Chicago. But realities rub shoulders with one another
so intimately that they are like leaves, turn a page and you are somewhere else
with different laws, different parameters, different cultural values. Here, for
example, no one cares a whit for that Italian charlatan Michelangelo. I'm
sorry, I have forgotten your name. Are you sure you were invited? Will you
stay?
-
haggis? no, it's
popcorn popped in donkey bladders
strewn across wire fences
jaundice butter dripping
some equine mystery neatly wrapped
in a mammalian lie
all the hooves turned to glue
soon they will float, above the
moon
take the organs, the meat, the bones, the
marrow
and parry all the evil spirits as you
devour from the heated rock
-
Motorcycles and bicycles both point to hell.
Spin in a lazy circle then cry for Apollo's Chariot
to take you to heaven.
Rebuked once, twice, thrice?
And still you try to steal away on stolen wings?
You will not find a happy place.
No such haven exists for robbers;
and robbers of words no less.
Consider, then, thy existence...
terminated.

I usually write short stories and this is actually my first go-into-light poem written in agony: have fun, because I am not really having one now :thumbs_up (think it is the worst thing that ever came to my mind)
Through the cuts on your face
over the bruises on your chest
how far can I ever go?
For I never meant to hurt you this way...
I got what never could be mine
Through the cuts on your face,
over the bruises of my being,
had I even known the taste
had I ever made your blood go to waste
whether mistaken or not
I will give our love another shot
But for good or for bad
all I need is a cure
of what you so stupidly called
my heart-shaped freezer
nothing more than one stupid stitch
promise me never to see that b*tch

Romantic Revelation
Mystical oblivion
Takes a turn
Blossoms through the mossy barkbed
Into a bed of ramshackle primroses
Charging the prim border
Of the sweet cherry tree
Long brace of scents
High brow glints
Tragic rinse
