Legalized Scammery

Legalized scammery

As ubiquitous as the birds and the bees

High Rollers

Politicians

Lawyers

Doctors

Have our back you see!

Hacking

Fraud

False advertising

Financial jiving jamboree

Bank money stolen?

Telling response

You dealt with the fiends!

Modern economic chicanery

Uplifting political and social buffoonery!

Rampant Corporate and Wall street monopolies!

In America

The Land of the Free!

Who cares!

Presidential acclaim is given to thee!

Where Have you Gone Keeyam?

As I met you first

I was smitten

Merely stood before me

A tiny week old kitten

As such the gift of your presence was bestowed

Soft meows became a fixture

In our humble abode

Always at my side

A generous love/friendship implied

You finally allowed me to pet you!

Ever so gently

Your hair follicles at your side

No matter how many times

I let you play outside

You returned

To be back by my side

Until these last spring morn

Where have you gone Keeyam?

NARCISSIST

I am the best!

There is no one finer than me!

I ace the test

The apex of Society

I am the purest blood of swash-buckling King!

The stately sovereign chess moving squadron Queen

Of my home and foreign dominion

And those who dare not agree

Thy heads will be stricken!

Thine foul bodies left for the crow pickings

Narcissist?

Me?

From the dawn of antiquity

Shalt I most loathe and pity thee

Plebe!

EVICTION

Alas!

My dearest invested money

Circulates vainly in the past

Presently

Mine scant earnings

Hath flowed most dutifully

Each stretching

Striving month

My bank account

Taking a big dent

For the Landlord’s rent

Payments for my humble abode

With the sometimes working commode

I hath received notice i shalt be

Evicted!

Restricted

To the barren frigid

Minacious streets

Nowadays still Wintery

Windy and cold

Investments in lessee NYC apartments

Whose eternal Boss = the Free Market

Can leave you sparse

Less capital

More credits to upkeep

Uphold

Tenant laws of which are scarce

Meekly fold

I ask of my friends

Please enlighten me

I find myself once again

On an ever more

Desperate search

For an affordable

Big Apple rented home

3 bedrooms for:

My wife and I

Plus 2 college-aged kids

2 hounds and a cat

Yet I can scant afford

A flat

Fit for a gnome

Whatever lever

I can discover

Shalt suffice

The rents in NYC!

Hath gone up!

Almost twice in price

Maybe this time

There shalt be space

To move around freely

No cockroach

Genus Rattus

Nor mice

To assail mine

Most beloved

Brood and me

Thoughts and prayers

Arrive soon

From the Holy See

Invite us to the path out of blight

For this hardworking man’s family

MOVEMENT

Aha!

Something moves!

Insects

Weaving in and out

Slithering

Filling in to the groove

Over there!

The Birds

Soaring majestically in the air!

The regalness of flight

Quite debonair

Speed!

Incredibly fast deeds!

The Cheetah

The Earth’s most accomplished accelerated creature indeed

Acrobatic and sleek

Que magnifique!

The Dolphin hurtles in an out of the ocean

Gracefully personifying the idea

Of turn the other cheek

Movement alas

As the magnetic needle moves on a compass

Signifies

Through every creatures’ activities

Ordeals and strife

In all of its profundity

On the Earth

In the Oceans

High up in the sky!

Welcome to Life

Move!

Strive!

The Rose and the Weeds

Photo by Yohei Kato on Pexels.com

We are the rose!

With vivacious vibrant stem

Grace and decorum

Love knowingly flows

Accompanied by green leaves!

The Others

The Anti-Mothers!

Trample purity

Radicalize beauty!

Stifle growth

Evil weeds!

Revolt!

Logic flows

From the stately Universal Tree

To the succulent yearning leaves

The One

Is socially averse

To those organisms

Perverse!

Seeking to do

As solely they please

Thus pleasant illusions

Have the power to deceive

Inviting duplicitous decay and rotten disease

Who Over There What Donald Say?

Who over there

What Donald say?

Who over there?

What Donald say

Bringing good tidings

Wishing all a good day

Rhymes intersecting with something to say

Who over there

What Donald say

Where are we going

How did we stray?

Formulating thought on the cosmic wave!

Who over there

What Donald say?

When my readers

Are my perceivers

I implore them

To lead the movement sway!

Knowers

Growers

No show boaters!

Who over there

What Donald say?

Poetry

Pure thought

Help

Fears

Master of My Domain

Master of my domain

Efficient undisturbed and sane

Words flow

As I go

Transversing through the plains

Master of my domain

The One and I

The same

I know

How to scroll

Subduing environmental pains

Master of my domain

Quencher of the pain

Roll dough

Satisfaction grows

Fuel the hungry

Inquisitive brain

Master of my domain

Complex issues remain

I grow

Till I am old

Seeking Societas gains

The Poet Sublime and The Children at Christmas Time

Photo by Oleksandr P on Pexels.com

Every time I post my original poems

With curated music videos on social media

I listen

Look

At my creative work

To ensure my most intimate thoughts

Dare not read as a encyclopedia

Or a gobbledygook

Never-ending!

Languishing book!

I listen

Feel to reveal

The poem and songs have the artistic appeal!

As the Knower

The life-rower

Are the words and music

Inducing the artistic

Satisfied sigh?

Where the organic internal

External Universe resides

If at chance

The will improvises

Poetic representation is bestilled

Nirvana!

I have become of

Similar mind

As a contented child

Unwrapping a wondrously inviting toy

At Merry Christmas time
