Silly As My Dilly Winkler / A Bad Poom For the Dumber Among Us
China climbs the scaffolding, wit
twin Koreas on
aggravating stilts watering the
Kremlin sepulchers
of John Reed and Comrade Lenin
(and Washington's
washways most more than less)
and none has anything to do wit an other
as my chinny chin dribbles spittle (then pisses
great gobs of glee)
on the gloobawl

Schizo-Paranoia: Living Hell
Black moving shadows paint my walls before my naked eyes
Before they take a fleshly form and spring forth to life
Invading my home, they creep about in the dark
As they signal they’ve found me with a light-signaling spark.
I am wide awake watching every move they make
Uttering not a single sound, I let them invade.
They want no money, they take no jewels...
For these are demons, goblins, and frightening ghouls
Rising from the pits of hell as phantoms
Who will settle not for any earthly ransom.
A body in which to invade is what they seek ...
Before they take a fleshly form and spring forth to life
Invading my home, they creep about in the dark
As they signal they’ve found me with a light-signaling spark.
I am wide awake watching every move they make
Uttering not a single sound, I let them invade.
They want no money, they take no jewels...
For these are demons, goblins, and frightening ghouls
Rising from the pits of hell as phantoms
Who will settle not for any earthly ransom.
A body in which to invade is what they seek ...

Not long a go
Not long ago edited October 2013
Mortar crumbles,clay again,
buildings fall and castles fail
generations crushed and fearful
no more trust in bricks and mortar.
Tents,linen now to shade the sun
or shroud the dead . . . . . .
needle thread and cotton.
Itinerant cloth to clothe the poor.
Carpets, card board boxes,
grain,flown in by aeroplanes.
Where next week we do not know ...

Cloak N Dagger-V-Red Frankenstein
Never seen a cloak
Quite like this before
Bright red with white pearls
Constantly flashing
Quite dashing one would say say
Dashing and sinister
It was the calm before her storm
Before she administers her pain
Through her blood stained dagger
That made the mightiest of men stagger
And tragically fall
As they become magically enthralled
With her beautiful cloak
Beguiling with witty jokes
A saccharine voice
And a soothing heat
To make any...
Quite like this before
Bright red with white pearls
Constantly flashing
Quite dashing one would say say

It was the calm before her storm
Before she administers her pain
Through her blood stained dagger

And tragically fall
As they become magically enthralled
With her beautiful cloak
Beguiling with witty jokes
A saccharine voice
And a soothing heat

Hell's Valkerie
hell's valkyrie
I'm the kind of guy that men want to be
and I'm the dude your girl comes to see
sneaky late night, where were you honey
uh worked late?, traffic? got some grocery's?
I beat them cheeks brutally
she moans loudly
face to the pillow
is where she has to be
muffling the moans and screams
and it still could wake an army.
memories
looking at her makes me think
good times were had,
no time lost for me
drifting into endless positively
the best eternity continuously
...

Dominion Rules
inside the dark I am well versed
I see you demons
you know me intimately
my hell is for me alone to bear
don't spread your disease elsewhere
you will not feed your greed
torturing others
I am your Mistress
here, you are fed and tended
though if you're in the mind to test me
I can easily starve you
you have names and faces
I recognize each of you
I treat you good
when you deserve no mercy
inside me...

No Room For Gallows Humor
Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain
both beloved affluential cognoscenti,
(took their life via cerebral hypoxia)
neither death can one explain
left family and friends to speculate
without lapsing into speculation
impossible knot
to veer off toward inane,
where fame nor fortune no immunity
against unbeknownst
deathly accursed mental illness
impact their adherents
plus affect large swath
of population in the main
cuz, (strictly my opinion)
the tightly woven

Feeling Pickled About Saurkraut
Someone told me long ago as a child that,
"You miss one hundred percent of the shots you don't take,"
to just "take a chance and start shooting's never a mistake".
It doesn't matter if you hit the target they say just keep pulling.
So with a storm brooding between my ears
I loaded up my gun and been holdin down the trigger shooting away all these years.
Now these ice caps started melting long ago far away,
and its watery rising attitude will soon betray. ...

The Darkness
Shadows in the dark
I know there’s no one
At least not any one I can touch
The darkness reaches out
Reaches into my soul
Inviting me
To become one with it
Scared
Scared to leave everything behind
Everything that I love
That’s somehow seems to bring me pain
And join the darkness
To Disappear
Forever
———————-
We are the darkness
We are the fear
The void inside your chest
The hole where a heart should be
Your dark mental unrest
Your emptiness invited us
We will...

The Devil's Toll
don't stand in my shadow
you won't like the beasts that lurk there
spurning me on to my destruction
for just one more sip of its magic
but you see it's tragic magic
the kind only the devil deals in
"you can have this gift for a moment
but it will cost you dearly
so write until your heart's content
i'll be there to collect you shortly"
it hurts when you feel nothing really
except in times of desperation
then my heart jumps into action
"please don't take all I have from me
I'll beg on my knees...
