A pageant of recklessness A disregarded package of regrets and resentments Tired and penniless Unrepairable, no time to do maintenance Unguarded and anxious A messenger absent of messages An organic premise of a pesimess Heart of ice and might be the coldest A lot of truth is said in jest Even if hard to digest But how is it I'm still on karma's shiit list? It's hit list might as well be a balled up fist Split personality, Both turn against me with the quickness Okay life, I give in, you win, You're better than me at this I've seen enough, I'm done, Don't force me to continue to be a witness To this travesty you supplied me with to begin with ©2024

~•§•~ A Pageant of Recklessness ~•§•~
The merged generations, emerge from first cold night in the mountains, announcing, This is screen-free Sunday. I say this is the first day of ever after. I read a bit -- Infinite Jest, just a stream that contributes, from time to time, finity to finity, a dead man's former mind fitted into words, emanating from the audible version of the words processed in the Nineties, flowing through the post I-Mac realm of words to the wise and otherwise, flooding the lexagraphic learners of grammar for sense in silence, self-reading silently, breathing commas, allow our pauses to perpetuate se per selah… say la la la as time flows by, like a wild river in the spring, Infinite Jest, there is a thread through environs unimaginable to me, until the inventions were given as inspirations, did you know, I heard, Steve Jobs yoosta stand in the comode, and flush it, gnoshit. In a state like meditation, zoned out of bounds in mere mistaken chance, ping ping ping a good idea, a bell of a thought. We think in words, not all minds do. Plenty punishments puns provideo please if -ish is sortalike… shitilised, four syl-lables la la la ra ra ra, boom sort on those, and mix up the story, in the bubble you be reading in, give us a universe, fit into the final bubble, beyond imagining minds, this world of words. Here is where we word wise do as we heard, when we read what the prophets say, the angels said… re- conciliation - nation to nation, peace on earth {as in heaven BTW} goodwill… the real deal, to fill the flaw, in the law, which allowed imaginary places power in carnal minds. Jesus fixed that. Jah, no joke, he took it, the joke on me, I traded for the joke on you, he said, I heard.

“So soon must I go my love?” Said I with bold Shakespearean jest A giggle escaped From her rosy lips, let suddenly out from her mind’s possessions With goofy smile and posh accent, She replied in kind to my intent “Of course good sire! You will now take your leave” A flood of mirth and good faith, a shower of genuine joy Blossomed with liveliness betwixt our figures Oriented sideways, laying on low-cropped carpet Our laughing drifted freely in good humorous air Dying slowly into breaths and smiles, her bountiful hair Glowed softly in that room Softening my jagged soul, fixing it with tempered gaze Though Heaven’s eye and lovely Earth Quarreled on that day, separated by grey droplets of clumpèd air In low light, I still retained a clear vision of my love laid before me In Venusian position, a blush from our previous merriment Still traveled up her throat and up her cheek Marking her lovely countenance proudly with color because of me Those moments are now dead and gone The ungrateful witch has left me to hang Solely by my neck In a noose of my own sorrow, growing tighter and tighter until one day I will break And I will die and I will suffocate Under the weight of my body and my baggage This love was not real! Only a lust dressed up in whore's clothes that shrivels up in the light Bah! Who cares about wenches these days? The wretches Merely prowl about the countryside, searching for untested men Nay, boys To draw water from, tying them down and breaching their chests Reaching in and stealing their best Traits and memories and garments and vex them Out of their minds and out of their hearts Out of their homes and out of their children’s arms! Nay, I say! What, ** Dare you contravene my verity? That my heart was broken? That much is truth That I was told, “You are not good enough.”

A caster of mimes and mimicry Stilts a prance About the tomb full of guests It's a mirrored jest to ease discomfort Visitors present their cards of invite And go swiftly about the social wetwork Their practices and manners Interact and ply Pulling teeth of the guises Harvesting an imflamation of words A baffle of tongue chorings There is an hour A second Then a third Whittling time Taming code Resorting to a little physical... And then they take their leave ; Prizes into the nights snare.

Lost your *** and spent your gold Drunk all night and you were told The Murphy girls have brothers ninefold... So, have you an inkling this mornin'? Don't say you had no warnin'! Gee those Murphy girls sure are pretty But now your listening to this "told ya so" ditty Got a bit fresh and way too giddy... So now your hurting this mornin' At least last night wasn't boring! So next year's the same when put'n on the green Remember the date it's March Seventeen Kathleen, Maureen, Colleen do preen... Just to count your gold in the mornin' So don't be a leprechaun hornin'

Paraphraised Adages
Anyone who does not aid you to be the Character you are only helps to water you down- to sell you out to their world. Moreover, anyone who discourages you from being your Character isn't worthy of your attention; they are an enemy of your creative potential, that is to say that they are destructive to the you that would be; the you that could be- perhaps should be. **Be a Freak. Break social rules. Defy expectations. Play the Fool** and own it, too, *lest the Fool own you.* What has the Fool taught you? Have you been willing to learn? Have you the capacity to teach? Wouldst thou follow Hermes, or Loki? Mercury? Thoth? Or would they follow you? ***We need more Characters. Fear not Card #0.***

Card #0
Damsels of distress, Wings of vivid crests. All elegant in a romance. Spin my Fairy. Tilt your head. Sprinkle fairy dust, To ressurect the dead. The dead who don't dance. Who stand in awe of your crest. Spin my Fairy, Recruit the rest. Vivid streams, Violet strings. Strung on thy lute of play. Spin my Fairy, Sing your song. Of Vibrance. Of Honor. Of love. Spin now, Your wings beautifully carved. As a monarch or a sprite. You give life to the crowd. Elegance above Royalty. Love above Lust. Play your reverend strings. Of Story Springs. Spin my Fairy, Flare those vivid wings. You are the final act. Praise your Lute of Rings.

Spin my Fairy (Final)
To face the world, a runt, With such brunt and abasement, Is to know ones place in the scheme, Standing in the stream of frivolous Happenings, this is the dance, To be danced, this is the play, Yet, he has the ears of a king, To jest with such fire is to be Ferocious, not feeble, his mocks Are mostly mirrors for the blind, For madness is a known methodology, How he revels round the sad theatres Of the high born absurd, how he speaks In tongues and with bold proclamations Only taut whispers of wind would know? He is certain that the spindle fates are real And that lightening strikes purposefully, Kingdoms will fall, as the sun will rise, As the noble trees ring with ideologies, Without travails, he is always arriving, To sleep out of doors, this is his way, The path, the masted ship of fools.

Lear's Fool
Stephon kissed me in the spring, Robin in the fall, But Colin only looked at me And never kissed at all. Stephon's kiss was lost in jest, Robin's lost in play, But the kiss in Colin's eyes Haunts me night and day.
