I write without relent,
Lawn ashen, body bent,
Fawn bashful, words pawn.
I write without intent,
Politic truth, not respect.

Words choleric, forested,
Another blonde moribund;
Floral, me'er ornament,
Porcelain and floor clung;
Flies flying and food dung,
No chloroseptic rush.

Sitting alone, he claims,
Throne vacant, citrus grown,
Plain clothes, no Satan.
He makes popular statements,
Pandering blatant, but fun,
Worldview of a drunk taken.

Full of heart,
Dull as garbage, trumped,
Meandering serious,
Meaning wallet plump,
Friends gone, blunt,
Ledge found, jump.

A doctor says to me:
There is no healing,
Tells me just to be,
No wishful thinking.

His heart a bean,
Feelings consumed.
Living amused,
Is no good for me,
Misunderstood by you.

Forever twilight,
A gradient life,
Polite goodbyes.

He lives like limes,
His hands a vine,
No tree remarked,
With loved ones dying.

Love forward, for house stewards.
His love a bundle, pursuant of son.
Fewer brewers at concourse, concord,
Honor converse, longer yet somber,
An absurd worth, admired, pondered,
Fury for her, imperfection sure.

Heart curious, head immature,
She writes love of commerce,
Hearth huge and wallet wanton.
Charter martyr departs hearted,
Leaves deceived, nature naive,
Silent knitting, fixing, sitting,
Speaking only of a life weaved.

Hands idle, crossbow fired,
Archetype tribal.
Life mindful, mostly recital,
Model, needle, idol,
Last verse final.
She writes of family,
Bride bridled, man entitled,
The brine hers,
Facts delightful.

Tattoo on her arms, postured,
Flippantly she remarks of nonsense,
Tense with feigned confidence,
A world over marching pasture.
Presume their charms poor,
Slipping of mudpiles immense,
Loose with large boulders,
Earth nobler than it is dumb.
They resume opportune position,
Posturing of nonsense distant,
Less limbs and less benediction,
Ammunition less firearms existence.

He finds for her nothing,
Saving judgement, touching,
Loathing bother abundant,
Absurd, absence, junction.

Usher standing with mother,
Prose, another woman lovely,
A job done poorly.

Traversing the forest,
Lakelands' Adonis denies support,
A life abridged, lies purported,
Rhymes dismissive,
Current from shore;
Spies thwarted, imported, 
Assorted, awarded, 
Escorted, extorted, 
Aborted, recorded;
Rewarded as kings,
Buried like swords.

Verse, chorus,
He is upon us,
Life no more warm;
Files, less security,
Flies less than before.

Chasing a good dream
Full of steam
Across the seem

Fanciful dreams idyllic,
A World kept inside,
Drinking of the streams,
Field workers denied;
Hands tied, perch supplied
Arms raised and sullied,
Ashen as the skies;
Blinking in acceptance,
The step child pummeled,
Guised as it is wired,
More ignorance desired,
So says the child;
Father humbled:
To be eaten by lions,
He mumbles and flies,
The world a mystery,
He inevitably hides.

A bitter republic weeps out "woe is me," 
Holding on to hopeless baffling beliefs,
Nothing is sacred if it won't fill their needs,
Yet when they're finished, they stay on their knees,
Speaking aloud "Sir, I want some more."
Straight from the movies without saying please.

Perhaps one day I will garner respect,
Socializing among my colleagues apt,
Buried in a monocle and top hat,
My money just as monopoly, amateurs.

Time bound fragile clay
Destiny's soldier
Stabbing the icy heart of time
Though you may reign triumphantly 
Ashes is your end

Pond upon oceans,
A death of water,
Little men upon thrones,
Their hearts of flower,
My life but a tome,
My life a tower;
Stairs to climb,
With life inactive;
Above the clouds,
Time spent sunburnt,
Cowards;
My designs immaculate,
Eating flies as flax,
Confusing images,
In place of facts.
Again the future lost,
Pipes accost the ground,
The ice storm comes;
Some go into town,
Some stay lost,
Together same,
Both die apart.

Art
Sometimes I understand it
Blowing hard
Leaves are scattered
While gathering up
Inspiration 
From the rays of the sun
Turn around
See what you created
Back where it begun
Darn
There goes another one

I have concepts for days,
Metaphors for four hours,
And wordplays for wakes.
I'm not bragging,
I'm just impaired,
Flawed above the mane.
Miscarrying paper knowledge,
Cutting loves careless arms.
She finds herself wanting,
Hair flowing, river forming,
Learning is her sophism,
So she lies until tomorrow,
Feigning disinterest ursury,
Tales of cursory, courtesy.
A verse aloft in the clouds,
Sounds out to an empty crowd,
Life of deception floundered.
World as in twitching flour,
Face equal, equivalent arms,
She curtsies and bows, turns;
Runs away, her face as ours.
