"accolade" poems
” she is quick to object" Mumbai,  to receive the accolade of “Role Player Attempt to hit back at their perceived “bully.” They don’t fall a little; they crash into muck... submission,   hopelessness, impunity, corruption, hypocrisy, law and family ... to ***** you since they’re not saints, they are neither saints nor priests, There’s a new order coming from mayor. We won t **** you all .... We will just shoot the ******  that — if there is no ****** it would be useless. she is quick to object". Fighting sexism and misogyny, nonetheless open and willing to listen, wear bug spray going forward, “inform the court that we did this” “didn’t like that.” ,” she is quick to object".

Young athlete who just joined the game Keep your hopes high while running low Towards success must be your aim For you to wend, for you to go E’en if you lose, e’en if you drop Trodden by feet of rivalry Get right back up and never stop And win this race with chivalry Ne’er seclude yourself, ne’er be coy Don’t take in vain each accolade Don’t be too scared, don’t over joy And don’t let worthy honor fade Never go blind with dark distress Nor deaf with roars of losing so Young athlete, don’t apply duress But keep dreams high while running low And even if you go too deep Down the path you should not have set Your worthy honor always keep With bravery, ne’er with regret Keep running on, keep running still At the far end, light you will see Keep running with force, if you will You will soon grasp bright victory And don’t let such grand rewards go But don’t keep them so you may boast Keep your dreams high while running low And keep on trying if you lost

Listen my dear daughter, to my first song of caution Earmarked for you my wonderful sire, come and listen, That tall old man with white hair all over his head Standing over there is not good; he is gnomish in the mind Be careful with him, he is not human in the heart But a mermaid of Yoruba poetry, just like Thespis of Greece Even the pecuniary psychopomp of Sweden gave him an accolade His heart is selfishly full of avarice; he wants everything for himself, Don’t recite him any of your poetry, lest he spells an abyss Against your juvenile poetic talent, he will fool you with a gift; A white sheep or a scarlet goat for your birth day anniversary Please don’t take it or anything else from him, as nothing from him is genuine But only machinations of evil spell aimed at mahyeming your talent Finally to decimate your girlhood and life, this is my caution For you dear little African girl. Listen my dear little daughter, to my second song of caution That short man in a Muslim gear loafing yonder, is suspect The Muslim beret on his head is merely a smokescreen to aghastly behaviour He is in no way an avatar of god of love and humane piety He is a terrorist working with Boko Haram and Algaeda He is an Alshabab that is bombing young girls in Mombasa and Nairobi All over Kenya he has killed the young people; his long egret-white sari is not for holiness, It is merely a nefarious sanctum of grenades, other tools of work in terrorism trade His loudly prayers, body movements and pocket bursting monies are only a stunt To have you kidnapped into death conduit, once you goof to join his courts, His sanctimony is a total picaresque film, (s)heroes of terror the centerpiece And thus, this is my caution for you dear little African girl. Listen my dear daughter, to my third song of caution Those tourists thronging our streets are deadly *** pets, they also skulk **** Their handsome outlook is not a stamp to any good conscientiousness They derive pleasure from poverty and *** tourism; they yearn to see a girl in poverty, Often rarely will they help an African girl, out of milieu of beggarly squalorism, Instead they go straight for the purse between your thighs, Regardless of the legacy they leave out of this lewdness, they are showy, They regret not in their Byronic broadcast of *** and fatherless urchins in the poor streets Foundation for their further poverty tourism, this is my caution for you dear little African girl.

the final curtain on one of the longest running musicals ever, some people claim to have seen it over one hundred times. I saw it on the tv news, that final curtain: flowers, cheers, tears, a thunderous accolade. I have not seen this particular musical but I know if I had that I wouldn't have been able to bear it, it would have sickened me. trust me on this, the world and its peoples and its artful entertainment has done very little for me, only to me. still, let them enjoy one another, it will keep them from my door and for this, my own thunderous accolade. from The Olympia Review - 1994

Curtain
It is so peculiar of man to desire imperfect, But that's just the way to getting perfect, In the quest of love, We only never find what we seek, Pride squanders what we desire most, No accolade will pride bestow, As love wont emerge to your blind soul. For as long as you soar as Eagles, The fattest Mice will be for Owls of the dark. Love is stronger than pride, Though pride soars great heights, Love grows even when a man is dying, Pride never. Except your pride despair, Love being greatest to you shall never be fair.

Your morning smile is precious. It gives me happiness. Smiling is indeed contagious. Your smile puts me on “daily autopilot”. You make me believe I can fly like a dove. Is this the power of love? Your smile is a catalyst to beauty not makeup. To accolade your smile I trade a boffola for laughter. Just to relax your muscle tension. Oh yes, laughter restores the body’s natural energy. I see the light through your crystal white teeth every morning. It chases all nightmares like sunrise chasing the darkness. A morning without you by my side is void. I’m addicted to your morning smile.

Where has it gone? I used to be good, I used to be a poet, Who could fine the words and pick and choose, I could tell you my story and make it relatable, I could make you feel any emotion and make it real. Where has that gone, where is my fire my imagination? I was the best, And Please I know, its arrogant but I do not mean to deceive, Even the famous ones, they bore, but with me everything became lore, So much accolade, so much triumph, Born under skill and pain the mightiest, But it’s disappeared, From misuse and disrespect. Hopefully hiding, realistically gone. There is no magic cure no band aid for my loss, my pain. Do no be me, do not second guess. No longer regret, don’t fret. Just go and write your soul, Don’t forget it, don’t let it pass, Release it let the talent and emotions flow. Because one day it will be gone, And your lone talent no more. And your going to be alone, Without even the words to implore.

Took the bus home. Paid my $2.50, no special discount. Spent my day selling my wares, But did not sell enough to Pay the daily rent, Hell, to even pay for lunch. Gave up my seat for sweet, Baby-child laughed at my Gallantry, I think, For his exclamations were Of the shrieking pleasurable variety. Saw Macbeth last night, In the end, he dies, Same as when I saw it Last year. Le plus ca change The Frenchies say, Wonder if they still wear berets And say "Le Weekend?" In the winter, The buses are overheated, So winter coats become furnaces. I am rendered, Ash and smoke. Nothing new there too. Missed my stop Writing this, Happened before, Hope it happens again. Came  home to the customary What's new, So I said Not too much But, Somebody decided that ole Poem I wrote two years on, Should be the Poem of the Day. That's sweet, my love , You surely will be Insufferably happy and Impossible to live with for at least the next five minutes. So take the trash out, Before we leave, Then pick a place to dine, For not a thing in the fridge to eat. So to the compactor, I strode, thinking Shakespeare Didn't have to do this, I'll bet, But started smiling, Ear to ear, A ***** eating Big ole Grinning, Nonetheless! Thinking, The question is, How does it feel, This poem of the day Accolade, The answer, of course! It feels, like, I am, I am just like {you, man}

the question you'll ask yourself, sooner or later.
A rupturing, promising, hell-bent accolade. The falling out between lovers ... And the gut-wrenching fools of this night. Your time here is almost done. So cover the light under a paper-thin parasol ... And the demons are sure to grace the fountainhead. Still, fear drives us mad. Laughing amid the distant crashes of emerald rockets ... And the splitting sides of smiling crocodiles. Whatever.

The candle is lit and the house slumbers as I turn the pages of this most personal tome it is not magik but memory that urges the turning. From the Oh so careful initial lines of a Very young woman beginning her search with every I dotted and T crossed every day logged and noted .To the busier days of finding teachers and noting the questions that HAD to have answers. With accolade's that came when at last I was asked to lead and the tears and uncertainty when the time had come to leave. The wonder and renewal that comes with teaching and the pride as my students stand on their own and go forward. Too the life moments when my attention was scattered a parents passing the ending of a marriage Every drop of candle wax and oil stained sheet recalls vivid memories and tears and laughter. My Book is not as pretty as I once thought it would be , But I met My Lady in its pages and for that I will every be grateful. Solita Shadoewalker

Memories Of A Crone
My eyes are glazed over and my mouth is hanging open. I sit here and feverishly type, gathering momentum To swing the creative cavalry inside my mind forth And to **** all that throws itself in front of my periphery, So desperately catcalling my attention. I live in a creative vacuum, From the hum of the fan And the slamming of the doors, To the static from the TV set And the voices. Those voices. I feel there is a poem in me Or a song, That will claim the hearts of others And tug on the hems of their peripheries Just as these homely distractions do to me. Until then I must write and write harrowingly. I must disregard the rules set down by centuries of genius And throw back the paradigms put forth By every raised eyebrow and polite accolade. I am only twenty-one and I have not yet felt the ache of age But I can feel the atrophy bite in my bones, Making me cower at this transient life And again I find myself at a desk by the window Feverish, so feverish.

Feverish
awry, askew, the poetry comes badly, clawing, life as well, faring poorly, the obvious linkage stinkage allows a milliseconds smile, a brief fiefdumb accolade of distress confirmation DH Lawrence appears in the  inbox, he too, awry, askew, tufts of wool clouding life like dust, rust and must, an old friendship renewed, the cold ex and in-eternal suggest frequent naps and hibernation, so much so that this script was commenced and committed years ago and lay forlornly in the ***** snow fallow and shallow drafts from prior years To every season there is a turn, a turning of the ***** yet the hacking cough from focculent dust on the floor of the world fills the lungs continuously, knows no respite, the spittle and the phlegm ejected herein, a disarming poem of dissatisfaction, alas, alas, the dust thickens and is not lessened ~for Medusa daughter~

A flocculent dust on the floor of the world
The way I expressed it didn’t fully make sense to my dearest who only likes men. It's never sat right to me the pride of a parent in their straight child's love life, the "don't ask don't tell" for a gay daughter I used to see red as a fad that had passed and a warning that I’m not desired; But I’m seeing clearer now, Rose-colored glasses might actually bring life into focus. We're all fruity and nonconforming girlfriends and boyfriends and partners each Others cringe hearing "queer"... Yet there’s something more in it: We don't have an explicit gaze, We have possibility, and the subversion of male eyes. So I’ve always been nearly regal like The Lady of Shalott, or Lady Lilith, The Birth of Venus, Flaming June, The Accolade— and I like *** and I feel wanted and I am a commodity-- Don't a man look at me but I will take a boyish girl's gaze only her eyes focused on my ******* Sleep over after the first date, for a change, And remain soft in shape She murmurs a lover’s desires: Wear your identity on your sleeve, In the curve of your back, on the scent of your hair and upon your hips, which invite her hands. Once, I said "let's make it cinematic Like that one *** scene that's in Mulholland Drive" But now: "Touch me, baby" It's finally the normal way.

A Long Long Time Ago Came a Man without an Ego. He would Sell Fine Lemonade. And as Time Passed by Many Many did accolade.   As time passed by His clients got bored And slowly dwindled. So he had to offer perks And good discounts.   Soon came many more who would offer Lemonade  and more. The Market Place got Crowded And Thousands also doubted.   The Original Seller had to do something Else would be wiped out forever.   Retorted to Brainwashing his Clients Spreading Lies and Deceits. Some came in his sway. Soon many Sellers went away And a few still decided to stay. Now the Original Seller is still selling. The Old Lemonade in a new way. But is always so scared of a few. Aware  that the lemonade has to change.
