Eenie meenie minie moe
Flip a coin, I don't know
Don't tell me to make up my mind
Just be grateful I'm here on time

An agitated alligator fumes sooner or later,
At the work of a deeply frustrated decorator.
While a masticated dictator chews power like a traitor,
Egged on by the sneer of a mutated hater.

Merci, ami.

Merci, ennemi.

Je suis devenu meilleur.

Je suis devenu plus fort.

#Quatrain #Poetry

I've dodged through life
Afraid to take up space
A dance of feet so light
You can't track the trace

milk is not patronized
not harmonized
not even marginized
it's just past your eyes

I really can't help it
as hard as I try
this hopeful heart
it must dream, or die.

The dream's soured, turned
as the shame snuffs it out
it's all that I've earned —
to be left, stranded in doubt.

All the world's clovers
at the start of the end
couldn't even save us
from ourselves, again

there’s no way of knowing
when the snow quits blowing
today’s the big test
winter at its best (or worst)

A #quatrain for a change of pace:

Powers #unlimited!
That's Donald Trump's claim.
All too often he prevails...
And SCOTUS is to blame.

Des corps déchirés aux corps de vie
Le temps accepte ses marques dehors
Rêves de jeunesse illusoire finie
La vieillesse de soi est un trésor.

Seconds slip like oil slicks
through waterfalls of sand
a shadow cast in every tick
it's not the way we planned

Tears ring down with laughter-
#Overemotional scenes ring out
With kisses getting the better
Nature of our hectic shouts.

“I’m #nonplussed, uncertain
Of the intricacies it contains:
An image lapping colors-
A rainbow swirl that hollers.”

Listening to the bird’s song
Expertly woven, I inspected
All the echoes that went wrong-
And in my heart I was #dejected.

Qué rico es tomar té

Y no estar triste

Es tan divertido ser

amante de las flores...

Will the day warp it's #loom
As we climb out of bed
Will our weft make it bloom?

It seems I am not even
worthy of your scorn
I'd take that over silence
on this lonely path I've worn.

A hundred #teeth lining the mouth
In a gaping maw of horrifying screams-
As they generate an endless amount of growth,
You can feel it constrict around your dreams.

The slightest misalignment
A scarcely perceived sound
Each serendipitous moment
#Wonky 's where the beauty's found

The #official pronounced their #official proclamation
"We shall make it #official that the #official policy
Is now #officially that the state has an inclination
to make Friday a day called Friyay which is an #official holiday."

Pollen: allergies, sneezing, sweet-
The taste of spring on my tongue.
This meadow we did not create
Is the place that fungus was among.

The leaf moves #nonchalent
As the winds of change be bent:
An echoing cry of the heart-
Gun shots are always the start.

Little rabbit eared plastic sacs
#Adorn Hawthorn on this ancient lane
The outcome of symbolic acts
Anonymising blame

A #smattering of peppers
With a dusting of salt and some
Adobo to wake the sleepers:
Make the steak described in tomes!

I wish I didn't feel so hollow
This bitter pill is hard to swallow
I choke on it like so much dust
Why was it you that I couldn't trust?

#heartbroken and weeping
under the willow tree soothing
bruised egos by nature’s smells:
Flowers and pollen all swell.

The moon sinks
#Clueless and carefree
And as I watch I also think
I wish that could be me

#Fertile: soil, nights, in the cove,
“I mean, what if it were me?”
Everyone is on the move
“That’s the way God made we.”

my oeuvre is drivel
hogwash, baloney, tripe
with claptrap, blather, piffle
thoroughly rotten, not ripe
