Oh... no... no... no... no need for concern,
no matter we almost bid thee adieu

Hence feeble attempt
to distill some essence

incomprehensible and dense,
cuz writing more comfortable

verses talking, which
often jabbering (more like a wookie)
(think fictional hirsute humanoids

Lyrics­

Sing a Song of Sixpence
BY MOTHER GOOSE
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie.

When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing—
Wasn't that a dainty dish
To set before the king?

The king was in the counting-house
Counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlor
Eating bread and honey,

The maid was in the garden
Hanging out the clothes.
Along came a blackbird
And snipped off her nose.

Ignominy hewed into comeuppance,
where yours truly aggrieved state
far worse fate  
than becoming deceased, though
years gone by since meek kin
grievously afflicted soundly did berate
  
deplorable marital indiscretion
this mister (wordsmith) forced opaque  
double life undetected
confession subsequently told mate,
she (nor eldest daughter)
riled, none to pleased, nonplussed

the latter (now living/working of late
San Francisco, California),
thus distance doth abate
plus elapsed time buffer zone  
lessens lesson learned never to copulate
(best if done early at any rate)

still loathes (at least smolders)
apt appellation liaison found papa
caught with figurative pants down lil mandate
formerly loosed upon Venus to excavate
as no fallacy warm prickly didst deflate
no stranger as expletive ingrate  

attests no more Casanova trait
deservedly called him regarding
extramarital tete a tete
apology made forgiveness accepted,
thou accept culpability I narrate
wife high infidelity transgression,

mine inferiority complex
*** seeded to emasculate
all throughout boyhood,
adolescence, young manhood,  
veritable entire lifetime spate
whereby fourscore and seven years ago

minus seventeen orbitz hied dedicate
mastermind pursuit didst facilitate
matt's scott's getgo automatically
begat self worthlessness
dismal social withdrawal didst accentuate
courtesy threatening taunts,
name calling, bullying as master bait

helped discredit any shred and underrate
me yet, now vestigial self confidence
helps me to reevaluate
within calmer metaphorical seas
how to steer this wallowing,
lumbering, aging... frigate
plus a brief plug for Colgate,

nonetheless choppers rotted
legacy courtesy dental quandary...
subsequently oral crisis did abate
quick lemme abbreviate
courtesy periodontal disease
dentures fitted hence concludes
tracked train of thought I freight.

who hopes to live long enough
before paying Charon mandatory dues
(to cross the River Styx)
papa ardently, confidently, fervently..., and hankers
to hear "Joe Biden" named forty sixth president
and could see right thru above concocted ruse.

the following poem composed years ago when my mindset less upbeat than the present
yet please try to avoid making any judge mint.

Like a tumbleweed aimlessly blowing in the wind
across the infinitely open and wide prairie land
(which wasteland famously epitomized by T.S. Elliot)
a barren vista ravages the metaphorical landscape
of one measly mortal malcontent male
bumping and scraping along an accursed habiliment
just barely avoiding and dodging the diabolical demons
mercilessly and unrelentingly
ready to ****** this somewhat sanguine Simian
who finds himself amidst the pitfalls
of a tortured and twisted existence
racked with the pinions that describe demonic dungeons
damp, dark, demented domains - a veritable no man’s land
and one impossible to escape from no matter how fast I flee
from the fearful, fierce some and phantasmagoric forms
figments of my imagination
yet real and tangible as bone and flesh
who haunt sacred house of slumber
and transmogrify me into a loathsome madman
ranting and raving senseless gibberish and gobbledygook
yet perceived as metaphysical and philosophical sane
and sound syllabification
from one womanly World Wide Web wayfarer
which virtual vagabond venerates vowels
and possesses means and tees to till verse
akin to a sorceress who waves a magic wand
to produce such supreme sentences
and weaves tantalizing terrific topographic tundra’s
that this admirer
of her artful and colorful poetic endeavors
prompts him to accompany her
as a thought-provoking troubadour
amidst the information super byways and highways
along winding labyrinths of critical thinking
or simply stepping stones of silly rhymes without reason
all the while giving subtle egress
into that chamber of secrets
long kept shut tight
to maintain that sure footed stance of solitude
whose only entities happened
to constitute the trappings
of literary lugubriousness
those tombs of largesse identified as great works and masterpieces of literature
yet careful to avoid complete intimacy
lest that cherished solitude
shattered and a heart rent asunder
twin perils of loss
that provide an understandable cautionary tale
to the author of this rambling missive
a most profoundly perceptive and acute Ape man
touched to the quick with a bit of angel dust
and aware that this agonized
and angst riddled  arboreal beast
contents himself with the confines of cyberspace.
