"brooder" poems
The Pigeon Gent,
He woos and coos around the river bent.
Pursues his muse with artful dance and skillful prance,
With inflated neck and ruffled plumage, until his energy or luck is spent.
He then resides by ebbing tides to ponder on his next advance.
"Now Now", "Whats This" the gent exclaims,
A shadow looming from the skies.
With ***** and claps he glides and lands with full surprise,
He spies the intruder, "A fellow Brooder".
Pigeon gent cant believe his eyes.
Pigeon Gent cannot believe the sauce,
The scurge seems intent on taking his prize by force.
At once he knows he must respond,
And force this illbread vagabond to abscond.
At once chest puffed and muscles flexed,
With wild eyes he jabs and pecks.
To teach this ruffian respect,
So on his actions he may later reflect.
He stands his ground both large and proud,
To make example of this foul winged burglar from the clouds.
"You insult me sir" he shouts aloud,
To make his intentions clear for all the crowd.
For several rounds they fight and scuffle.
With intruder retreating, feathers ruffled.
Then bested suiter fairly parted,
The quarrel ends as fast as started.
The vanquished victor displays and grooms,
As peace and honour now resumes.
Soon the ripples upset the green,
An armada of ducks come on the scene.
Alerted by the heightend coos,
They race to see what act insues.
The mighty mallards, Kings of the river,
None contest their right of way.
Their ways of conduct such generous givers.
Majestic river royalty, the law is always what they say.
On bank or shallow pebbled river they have always been,
They love to feed and breed amongst the river scene.
There royal cape made up of browny reds and shimmering greens,
reflects and intejects on mirrored water skies and evergreens.
To their mates for life and lady lovers,
The mallard gent is like no others.
Such loyalties are seldom seen,
In modern times and different dreams.
Fine and lean with striking features,
Best examples of river teachers.
But at any moment no matter how abrubt,
A river duel may easily erupt.
Battle can ensue and rage,
As both apponents approach and engage.
For they mate for life as duck and wife,
A rarity in any age or life.

who deserted from other roses sweet smile
whether, red, white, orange and infinite
are always made in satiation
I / black rose
no dark mosaic: often drowned nature of struggle
sleeping at the time of red roses, white, yellow, blooming
wilted due to weak roots
i / black rose
the brooder
stuck like a rock
the meaning of the many colors of roses are:
broken into one / black
because, i / early black rose of colorful roses.

Sober thoughts crowd my mind
Happiness I cannot find
Gloomy weather, gloomy mind
Black bile, one of the archaic humours
Rhyming aptly with tumours
Cancerous thoughts within my mind
Pensively I look for salvation
Maybe a cheery salutation
But my melancholic mind keeps me as a brooder
I vent my spleen, searching for the vaccine
Annoyance acting as a screen for the truth
That all I want to do is scream and scream and scream.

I wear a canvas over
Covering my head
Just in case it rains
I won’t say what I said
At first, I just wore a jacket
It saved my pretty face
It protected my hair
I could not feel or care
a storm came rolling through
Rain prickled at my skin
So then I took a canvas
And I laid within its skin
I do not peak my head out
I do not say hello
I do not wish to get rained on
So I stay alone at home

I been born to lack.
Self inflicting heart attack.
I been born to mourn my death.
I'm a plague dressed in disguise
A brooder of everything in sight.
I been born to mourn my death.
Don't bother to please.
You'll find I need no sympathy
I'm a swamp that takes body heat.
When you're in my morass trap,
You'll find anxiety tracks.
It's a disheartening,
Meglo-mockery.
Oh, Mephisto please.
Why do I do this to you my marsh queen?
Oh, I don't take, I steal.
Hearts, time and self esteem are a good meal.
Don't have any aches for me
I was born to mourn my death.
I must seem like a mystery
With dirt prints I leave behind every scene.
Taking you deep into a quagmire of negativity.
I been born to lack.
It's not my fault you got trapped.
But you were warned before,
I was born to mourn my death.
