Poem Of Your Life

Finding the right 

Words for it should not be 

 

Your sole concern,

But if it is, learn how 

 

To make the best of it.

Shakespearean Wordplay

Analogy resembles 

 

A world bespoken, 

Made-to-order, incomparable 

To compare, say incarnadine, 

 

Lest we should flesh out 

Those bloody incongruous 

Seas of filth abiding us there. 

 

 

 

 

 

Haiku: American Gothic Success Story

Worked hard—making it 

Hard to hear the sound of scythes 

Hissing near his ear.

 

 

 

Unfinished Business

Left to my own 

Faulty devices, I find 

 

What I no longer have 

Any need of keeps 

 

Lagging behind, reminding 

Me of what it is 

 

I am missing— 

A friend in need.
