THE QUEEN OF CAFFEINE
ShamusDeyo Sep 2014
She's pristine and serene
The queen of caffeine
She hangs out at the breakfast scene
Always smiling
Never Mean
She brings our cream

Undefined
ShamusDeyo Dec 2014
Sometime there are no words to say
You've nothing, no words come your way
You look for illumination in a world of Gray
All manifestation of warmth delayed

Picks at the Emotional Scab today
I must suffer for alluding to this Display
People don't understand, I must hide that away
In the end...Sometime there are no words to say

When words Fail me, Its like a Hard Freeze
Awaiting to thaw, that aches to the Bone
You can't Appease, Syllables crack Like Lake Ice
Consonance in Constant disarray despite
Your Feelings Bared, to all in sight.....JMF 12/14/14

Death Rattle of a Poet
ShamusDeyo Feb 2015
The shaking hand leaves ink trails on the Paper,
Like blue veins showing through pale skin.
The whisper of his words lost between
The Cough and the Death Rattle as he begins.
Words whispered appear like ghosts upon the Page
No Laurels, No printing, No Publishing of this old Sage
Just a stack of Paper to Mark a lifetime of memories.
To show up at an estate sale pawed over by Curiousity
Shaking but determined he pens down the Paper
Another Document to be filed in a box for later
Like Dreams of Fantasy and tales of Enchantment...
Shaking Hands write, This is my last will, and testament...JMF

Discontent.....
ShamusDeyo Jan 2015
Bridled with Ire
Your words say your a Liar
Saying your my Friend
Means nothing in the End
The truth of the fact
Lies in the way you Act
The vipers in your life
Whisper Lies for you to hear
Their venom numbs your heart
So now you play their part
Afraid their words are truth
You draw away forsooth
Fear you will be shunned
By the Lying Cheating ones
You say you are my friend
But I don't feel it in the end.....1/24/15

Lost in the Mist
ShamusDeyo Jan 2015
The Morning breaks Gray,
Nothing to do, Nothing to say.
As it begins, the Mist seeps in,
Writhing and Twirling
Like Tendrils of wind
Caught in a dust devil,
Made of Mists so thin.
Where does this mist end,
And I begin, feeling it.....
.....seep into my skin.
I walk through a Hall
And with each Foot Fall
The sound smothered by Fog
Echos in Silence, Off of a Bog
Foot Falls go on and on
Searching for a Dawn
A break that would clear
To let the Light Near
But each mist that's light
leads back to the Night
Of Eternal Darkness.....JMF 1/13/15

Dogs of Desire
ShamusDeyo Feb 2015
Into my quiet, peaceful life
Steps a man full of strife
Sniffin' 'round, like a hound
Just a dog of desire'
Is it the soft brown eyes
That fill me with relief
And make me forget
The snap of his teeth,
Or the wag of his tail
As he strokes my leg
That never fails
To make my heart beg.
He's out and around
With a ***** in the sack
but at his scratch at the door
I take him back.
What will end my need
For this wandering seed
O' What will **** my fire
for these Dogs of desire?

BlackRoses on the Door
ShamusDeyo Mar 2015
A friend who's pain and sorrow
I do not know why for...
To mark this tragic Memory
I nailed Black Rose's on the Door

So Passers by may know....
That here's a Heart in pain
And all that pass should wish her
Kind thoughts of pain no More

And as time Passes By...
Petals fall off Dried
Taking with it.....*
*Each tear drop that's cried
A Soul Searching Tome

down with the blues
ShamusDeyo Jun 2015
i wake up dealing with the Fog in my head
trying to decide if I should get out of bed
i wonder if a i have a life anymore
it seems that i have friends no more
it seems that what i say makes people sore
my thoughts are haunting me to the core
when i think of everything, i think of all
the echo of silence bounces off the walls

Waiting on the Unknown
ShamusDeyo Oct 2014
A vague sense of foreboding,
A thought that is nagging ,
Riffled through this field of thought
This waiting time has come to naught.
Mulled by seconds ticking, on the clock
If only this impatience I could hock.
I'd take it to a pawn shop and
Get all that it was worth,
And spend it All on fun and mirth.
But alas it has no value
So there's nothing I can do
But sit in idle waiting
Until this all is through

Hidden Agendas
ShamusDeyo Feb 2015
The verse may be gentle and Kind
But you find its Terse, when you read between the lines
The moonlight so Full Falls on an Embrace
But some have the Idea that its a Race
The Kiss so tender lips soft Lingering...
But they stab you in the back if the think they can win
Words so sweet, and its known in the End its Only a Poem
Its only a Poem.....JMF 2/26/2015

The Poets Fix
ShamusDeyo Jan 2015
Eyes cast upon the creation,
Its a stirring Invitation.
Words cooked in a spoon,
Drawn to the Pen soon,
Tied off by punctuation.
When the Ink hits the Blood,
The rush is a total Flood.
And the Poets elation,
Is the rush of creation.
But on days of frustration,
You beg for inspiration,
Just to feel the Poets Fix.
