The jester dancing through the night
Grinning at his tricks and lies
Dressed in silken jester wear
Though for looks he doesn't care
His wand in hand, trick up his sleeve
He'll play his show and then he'll leave
He'll play a fool so gracefully
Yet tricking you so tastefully
Bells and whistles all in place
Coy smile adorned on his face
He'll leave you thinking, mystified
Curiosity unsatisfied
The jest is singing for the queen
Though his quotes are rather mean
He hops and skips around the room
Starts to tango with a broom
And as your bliss is hiding him
He can go about his whim
A spin of his ankle
A leap in the air
Making all the
Monarchs stare
With a flash of light he leaves them be
Before they recall their misery
This human-form hyperbole
Has packed its bags and given glee
To play on peasants, prey on kings
His legend only he shall sing
Grinning at his tricks and lies
Dressed in silken jester wear
Though for looks he doesn't care
His wand in hand, trick up his sleeve
He'll play his show and then he'll leave
He'll play a fool so gracefully
Yet tricking you so tastefully
Bells and whistles all in place
Coy smile adorned on his face
He'll leave you thinking, mystified
Curiosity unsatisfied
The jest is singing for the queen
Though his quotes are rather mean
He hops and skips around the room
Starts to tango with a broom
And as your bliss is hiding him
He can go about his whim
A spin of his ankle
A leap in the air
Making all the
Monarchs stare
With a flash of light he leaves them be
Before they recall their misery
This human-form hyperbole
Has packed its bags and given glee
To play on peasants, prey on kings
His legend only he shall sing

Fairytale Mythology
my words are magic beans that grow into a stalk
so, follow where I lead, let's take a little walk
past wolves that ain't nothing but huff & puff
you're running with the big dogs now & I just called your bluff
my house is made of stone, while you're wearing grandma's clothes
I mastered poetry and reinvented prose
with flows that topple foes and rescue damsels in distress
my cupboard's never bare, my porridge passes every test
impressed? distressed? afraid you've met your match?
I burn quick like candlesticks; too nimble for you to catch
so sing, "hey diddle diddle, this cat don't play no fiddle
but he still make music so sweet

Real Objects
Real Objects
Spicer wrote to Lorca to say, I would like to make
poems out of real objects. The lemon to be a lemon
that the reader could cut or squeeze or taste a real lemon
like a newspaper in a collage is a real newspaper.
I read that Spicer wrote this, but not that Lorca wrote back
with his reply. I dont have such a letter; I have not seen that I do.
I have not looked to see that I do; not even today as I
give all thought to this. Is that as real as a lemon can be?
To go on without looking for a letter, simply because
the light is better here at the red edge of the table,
merely because there is no world

once upon a time, i knew who i was.

i remember when i connected my heart to the rest of the universe with a shoe-lace. it was weak to begin with and grew more decrepit with age, like the neglected kaleidoscopes of immortal astronomers - they are still alive in the vague glimmers of fading stars. you can only see their light in the blackest of nights, in the middle of nameless deserts, amidst Mediterranean seas and Andalucian shores.
(somewhere, there are lights that never dim and keys that do not lock.)

bless me mother, for i have sinned.

i remember when kings were still princes, when princes were still paupers, when p

I'm not too fond of the ending but... I might change it in a little while. XP

My odd obsession with jesters... I dunno. I'm mad, you should all know that by now!
Enjoy!
