There was a little town and a little child named Roy, and Roy was growing up to be a happy little boy, One day he asked his grandad about the stuff he’d seen, A bunch of people waving signs that purple people all were mean Grandad looked at him and said “You and I are…… Continue reading The Greenies and the Meenies

Unseen
Behind the stairs she hides at night, To behold she is a fright, Her hair it waves about, around And falls six feet to the ground Up in her tower dark and bare, No sound of music in the air, The land weighed down by shadows grim, An evil forest there within A prince of…… Continue reading Unseen
The LGBT contagion?
There’s an interesting trope amongst those who don’t know us in the LGBT community, especially among those who are against the LGBT community. That concept is that we somehow wish to proselytize people into our “lifestyle”, especially children. This is never, of course, presented with cogent argument, rather with vacuous rhetoric about everyone promoting being…… Continue reading The LGBT contagion?
The Lost and Found
Down the sidewalks, run do we Past the hardware store Past O’Malley’s pub we see A drunk sleeping as he snores Here’s not where our mind does fly Caught in reverie Lying in our past besides Old waters whole and free There we ran down corridors Built of steel and glass All we thought was…… Continue reading The Lost and Found
He’s gone
I’ve passed by the lilacs so sweet and so fair Woven red ribbons in my long blond hair The lily of the valley, greets me with dew A new life I’ve found, in the absence of you You were my shell, confining and tight A robe of blue satin bound tightly in white The hood…… Continue reading He’s gone

It left me in tears) The light grows dim By open door Between the shores Through which your weary masses came Your parents then and mine did too From foreign land and distant shore Arrived together within a dream To become all the same A proud…… Continue reading The Dimming of the Light
Gone
I miss her touch and warm embrace the smell of flowers in her hair I miss the way she smiled at me her presence made the world feel fair Though grown apart we faced the world with spear and shield kept out the bear of shattered hopes and dreams forlorn so thus an end…… Continue reading Gone
Midnight
The midnight lovers stop and stare A hint of moonlight in their hair They lay there in that state of grace Giving them a warm embrace The childlike cries of pleasure brought To the surface nature taught In sweet agony is her face Her lover holds back from the race At last the battle has been…… Continue reading Midnight
Pain
Pain, it focuses my mind, my eyes, It instructs and separates that which can reduce it, and all the rest that passes by I scream, but pain doesn’t care. She wears her leather vest and sneers an eternity passes while pain endures at last, damp with sweat we sit up and watch the dawn appear…… Continue reading Pain
The Tyrant
The Tyrant stands with flaming sword, all she judges, no accord, and down there at her feet, the countless faces waiting deep Outside, there is freezing cold, A sad story freshly told, Of love that’s lost, Can n’re return the cost Children look at her feet Beg for more bread to eat And still no…… Continue reading The Tyrant
