Night of the Banshee
Night of the Banshee
Apples blush red with touches of green like love in its callow youth too young for Hades yet plagued by Stygian hearts. Rowena’s thighs are muscle-bound from hard labor.
John and Rowena take up serfdom to harvest apples for a feudal lord. Their vassalage collects them pounds and pence for the season when crops are lean.
The apples are made luminous by dew drops. Ro says, “Here let me feed you some.” With her hand stretched out in friendship he bites into the flesh of her offering. A smile illuminates her face as he...

School Librarian
School Librarian
She presides over the school’s book room
Like Helen of Troy in horn-rimmed glasses
Who peruses a practicum on literature
In her six-inch stilettos
Wearing a clingy evening gown
She puzzles over the inordinate amount
Of reference inquiries from the boys
But chalks it off to the curiosity
Of budding scholars
Yet so many questions
On Shakespearean double entendres
Which make her gasp
She presides over the school’s book room
Like Helen of Troy in horn-rimmed glasses
Who peruses a practicum on literature
In her six-inch stilettos
Wearing a clingy evening gown
She puzzles over the inordinate amount
Of reference inquiries from the boys
But chalks it off to the curiosity
Of budding scholars
Yet so many questions
On Shakespearean double entendres
Which make her gasp

Just for fun
Wanteth to passeth out not catcheth but a winketh
wanteth to awaketh with achey exsufflicate brain
nay dreams rememb'r'd
nay false desires
nay me
nay thee
nay us
all hath lost
to the filleth'd with pangs of did hang'r shadows
wanteth to awaketh with achey exsufflicate brain
nay dreams rememb'r'd
nay false desires
nay me
nay thee
nay us
all hath lost
to the filleth'd with pangs of did hang'r shadows

Riding Lessons: Notes of an Online Journal
Riding Lessons”
Couldn’t get enough of William;
His sonnets were my obsession.
Lunches & breaks but no weekends,
When I started riding lessons.
That was part of the fantasy,
Dressed in jodhpurs & boots all day.
Did a brisk canter by the quay
While quoting Othello away.
A quiz that l hoped was my last,
To see how I’d rate was the key.
When timed, I asked if I will pass,
He stalled, “To be, or not to be.”

Tainted Reflection
Our desire for beautiful people increases,
That one's beauty might never die,
But as one's beauty disappears over time,
His offspring will inherit it:
But you, focused on your own bright eyes,
Feed them with only the sight of yourself,
Creating a famine where there is plenty,
You are your own enemy.
Your beauty is now the world's decoration,
Only a messenger to the showy spring,
Your content is buried within yourself,
And, tender peasant, waste your time...
That one's beauty might never die,
But as one's beauty disappears over time,
His offspring will inherit it:
But you, focused on your own bright eyes,
Feed them with only the sight of yourself,
Creating a famine where there is plenty,
You are your own enemy.
Your beauty is now the world's decoration,
Only a messenger to the showy spring,
Your content is buried within yourself,
And, tender peasant, waste your time...

Like Shakespeare Said
we are we are we are we are
breathing in close to a star
we sleep we wake we're in between
while awake we're in a dream
you're in me and I'm in you
thoughts and feelings, visions too
the sky, the sea, the Earth below
like Shakespeare said we're in a show
we come, we go, we hang around
we're transformed by sight and sound
who we were just slips away
becoming new right here today
the Sun comes up, the Earth spins 'round
first we're lost then we are found
the only thing that stays the same
the way we're changed when...
breathing in close to a star
we sleep we wake we're in between
while awake we're in a dream
you're in me and I'm in you
thoughts and feelings, visions too
the sky, the sea, the Earth below
like Shakespeare said we're in a show
we come, we go, we hang around
we're transformed by sight and sound
who we were just slips away
becoming new right here today
the Sun comes up, the Earth spins 'round
first we're lost then we are found
the only thing that stays the same

IN JULIET'S BEDCHAMBER
(An imagining of the consummation of Romeo and Juliet's clandestine marriage.)
Outside, Montagues and Capulets war;
Here they consummate their new-wed amour.
They undress until both are in the raw,
Presenting parts long hid as if in store.
Neither have made love, with others, before.
Their bodies are a new world to explore.
She gives her consent, together they draw;
With body and spirit, they start to adore,
On each other tides of passion pour.
His young manhood comes stiffly to the fore.
So he lifts her to bed, feet off...
Outside, Montagues and Capulets war;
Here they consummate their new-wed amour.
They undress until both are in the raw,
Presenting parts long hid as if in store.
Neither have made love, with others, before.

She gives her consent, together they draw;
With body and spirit, they start to adore,
On each other tides of passion pour.
His young manhood comes stiffly to the fore.

Misplaced monologues
"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances"
- William Shakespeare, As You Like It, Act II Scene VII
And so I pass across the stage
A royal lord renown for wisdom.
An idol of justice and titan of humanity
- Or so I see myself.
If the world's a stage
Then on most days I'm 'resting'
Far from the action and far from view.
- As if anyone pays any attention to this fool.
I paint pictures in my mind
- And they're beatiful
On a canvas no one can see...

KING LEAR 2012
This evolves from the king’s famous outburst in Shakespeare’s play, a tale of disintegrating sanity, family and society. “Let copulation thrive…” This is an imaginary musing of a King Lear in an apocalyptic society.
Let copulation thrive!
Let naughty couples swive
And indulge their sex drive!
Let lads and lasses jive,
Let British workers skive,
Good men no longer strive!
Let drunken drivers drive!
Let gangs each other knive!
Let aliens arrive!
Let Wall Street take a dive!
Next day, who’ll be alive?
Let copulation thrive!
Let naughty couples swive
And indulge their sex drive!
Let lads and lasses jive,
Let British workers skive,
Good men no longer strive!
Let drunken drivers drive!
Let gangs each other knive!
Let aliens arrive!
Let Wall Street take a dive!
Next day, who’ll be alive?
