Enunciate!
I'd say...sailing on to Ceylon,
sounds like phonemic heaven
until I hear convenience rhyme
seven with eleven!
You too may have an ad man's ear
when writing out a sound
where meter isn't overwrought
by words which will confound...
since lowly pays the common heed
to elocution's art
when their attention span's as short
as Hermes on a fart...
both in and out your mouth and nose
like steward wine from hell
whose oratory lessons shat...
like a farmer in the dell.

using
the paint

Mortality
Who shall explain
devastating tragedy
imprisoned in death
never to be free
Demons do creep
there is no misgiving
venomous strikes
attacking the living
Spectres of regret
carve images in the mind
casting ominous shadows
calamity assigned
Heart wrenching fate
brutal and unfair
it comes for us all
innocents beware
devastating tragedy
imprisoned in death
never to be free
Demons do creep
there is no misgiving
venomous strikes
attacking the living
Spectres of regret
carve images in the mind
casting ominous shadows
calamity assigned
Heart wrenching fate
brutal and unfair
it comes for us all
innocents beware

Cumulative Costs
She glistened bronze in the morning sun
gliding across the sand.
His pale body was sprawled in early light,
but he smiled through a drunken fog,
“Listen, in the distance, a lone gull cries.”
She looked down on him surprised – perturbed.
Now, he had her eyes and they were beautiful!
“We always hear the gulls cry on this beach,
but don’t always have to step around drunks,”
and her eyes turned quickly away.
He stared after as her form grew smaller in the distance.
He memorized the lovely shape...
gliding across the sand.
