THE MUSSELMEN

THE MUSSELMEN Wail, you free peoples for our land defiled Our riches are raped; dearth wheels to scour For victims to mangle whose plight is reviled By monster Mugabe and his hordes who devour The legions of valiant and unbridled iron wills The State is flatlined and the Musselmen mount In the jails...

THE PARTY LINE

THE PARTY LINE Hooded and bound, Mattie was hurled into the punishment cell. “Prisoner 62, you are here to be cured of your anti-state activities. How long that takes depends entirely on you,” hissed Major Foley. “All tyrants are defeated in the end.” “The ravings of a lunatic. Sergeant!” Morgan... Sign in to see full entry.

BLISSFUL AWAKENINGS

BLISSFUL AWAKENINGS With fanfare and ballad salute the knight Spring Whose radiant rays rouse from a glacial repose Nature's blooms comely and bid my muse sing. The trilling birds whirl their craft to compose The early bees drone and of pollen partake In meadows low cattle; lambs gambol and race.... Sign in to see full entry.

THE GUILEFUL KISS

THE GUILEFUL KISS The clock chimed three; in a mist sailed And a figure exalted advanced through the haze. My soul he thrilled; he discerned things veiled Grand visions he spun with his affable gaze Select persons he kissed to be my mainstay. His counsel I minded; perceived not his design To flay my...

A WINDOW TO THE DIVINE (To the Immaculate Mother Of Kazan - Russia)

A WINDOW TO THE DIVINE Hail Star of the East! Oh Sovereign dethroned By the lash of Lenin; Red Dragon afire Your shrine so despoiled all the pious bemoaned Into exile you sank to flee deeds dire. But his wicked creed waned; the pillage amended Of treasures of God so Rites could resound. In praise of... Sign in to see full entry.

Prince of Pop

PRINCE OF POP Crown prince of pop; grand genius and ace You proffer a chest of gilt to endear My senses to marvels; so I may embrace The myriads of lyrics; bid their magic appear. The crystal key turns; makes my heart swell And my ear I tend to musical joy. Oh surely in Heaven this talent does dwell... Sign in to see full entry.

SLEEK MAULER

SLEEK MAULER Dark empress begone with your venom tipped spear Late are your black arts by demons conceived. Your legions of dread no more shall smear My message I bear to a world deceived By the fruit foul of your fetid trees. Blitzed is your reign; my justice will pinion Like talons of eagles your...

WELL, FAIR?

WELL, FAIR? Arise from your stupor, slaves of the State Your hopes they entomb in their serpent's lair As you flounder forlorn in a jobless fate. Pummel their torpor and let your words flare And impale the script that their minders implant To slaughter the spirit and flay all lament. So harken to me... Sign in to see full entry.

VOICELESS

VOICELESS Woe to you Herods for babes you scythe Wrench skulls and bones from the tender womb Your death tools gnash; from pangs they writhe The abode of life reeks now of doom. The clatter of limbs resounds in the bins Chaste Mary it rends; see her eyes bleed. So bellow your wrath; atone for their... Sign in to see full entry.

A CELTIC ENCHANTMENT

A CELTIC ENCHANTMENT When the sky disrobes to sport fair azure And sun suffuses the earth with its glow All Scots will beam and delight to allure Throngs to make merry so streets will flow. By night when the mantle of sapphire descends Bedecked with the glory of diamonds oft veiled And the silvery... Sign in to see full entry.
