"comedian" poems
When I grow up, I want to be a dentist Astronaut or mage apprentice. I want to be a dancer, an artist, a king. I'm hoping to stand on a stage and sing. When I grow up, I want to be a lawyer, Or have lead role in the play Tom Sawyer. I'll be a comedian, and make people laugh! Or the CEO with a thousand staff. I'll be a waitress, a teacher, a vet. Snow White's eighth dwarf that no one has met! I might be a chef, or a scientist. How about architect or alchemist? When I grow up, I'll be a song writer Or maybe your friendly, next-door firefighter. I'll be a technician or pharmacy worker, A fashion designer or New York stock broker. I'm gonna be everything, just you wait and see! But I think in the end I'm just gonna be me.

I was born in a time of veterans and freedom. Or was it killing, like when we left Eden? I was born in a time, of oceans and salt. Or was it destruction, Atlantis had fought? I was born in a desert, a place with a lot of hot sand. Cleopatra, Aphrodite, Egypt, all Seeing in the Land. I was born in a Television, Hollywood starstruck was my name. Classic, Modern or Hipster, craving fortune and fame. I was born a telepathic, a mind reader of such. Seeking and giving out energy, requiring you of much. I am deep, I am wide and I am always by your side. Loyal, Obedient and Giving. Taking, Fantasizing, Living. I am quite the comic book laughter. I comedian of sorts. I am quick to judge the living and cover up my warts. Back to 1960, or was is 70 and 2? When I was born a Scorpio, and no one ever knew.

PARNELL'S FUNERAL UNDER the Great Comedian's tomb the crowd. A bundle of tempestuous cloud is blown About the sky; where that is clear of cloud Brightness remains; a brighter star shoots down; What shudders run through all that animal blood? What is this sacrifice? Can someone there Recall the Cretan barb that pierced a star? Rich foliage that the starlight glittered through, A frenzied crowd, and where the branches sprang A beautiful seated boy; a sacred bow; A woman, and an arrow on a string; A pierced boy, image of a star laid low. That woman, the Great Mother imaging, Cut out his heart. Some master of design Stamped boy and tree upon Sicilian coin. An age is the reversal of an age: When strangers murdered Emmet, Fitzgerald, Tone, We lived like men that watch a painted stage. What matter for the scene, the scene once gone: It had not touched our lives. But popular rage, Hysterica passio dragged this quarry down. None shared our guilt; nor did we play a part Upon a painted stage when we devoured his heart. Come, fix upon me that accusing eye. I thirst for accusation. All that was sung. All that was said in Ireland is a lie Bred out of the c-ontagion of the throng, Saving the rhyme rats hear before they die. Leave nothing but the nothingS that belong To this bare soul, let all men judge that can Whether it be an animal or a man. The rest I pass, one sentence I unsay. Had de Valera eaten parnell's heart No loose-lipped demagogue had won the day. No civil rancour torn the land apart. Had Cosgrave eaten parnell's heart, the land's Imagination had been satisfied, Or lacking that, government in such hands. O'Higgins its sole statesman had not died. Had even O'Duffy -- but I name no more -- Their school a crowd, his master solitude; Through Jonathan Swift's clark grove he passed, and there plucked bitter wisdom that enriched his blood.

Coteries are not for me.
This might not be a poem: more so a realization at most. The complaints I have throughout the day are anything but morose. Walk an hour in another man's shoes, and suddenly life has so much more I could lose. Where could I be in that first step? I could be standing in the flip flops of a beautiful friend , taking care of four children as a new widow. I could be in sneakers as the man  selling newspapers in the desert heat day after day. I could be in a different shoe every day, as a comedian loved by all, who could make everyone laugh, but himself. I could be in heels in a doctors office, facing the reality of only a few months left. But I'm not. My shoes are worn, but my heart is not. My days might be long, but my bed is warm. The jobs I work help keep our bills paid and our food plentiful. I was going to complain today: but when I realized how beautiful today was, I had nothing to say. Where could you be, in that first step?

When in Bohemia, she screams about Her pastures green, but not too loud So never have I known, that the world listens too As a comedian, I see she belongs But never conforms, to the song of This nomad world, I'm glad she found it too So run! She wants to run again You vagabond, you're well-spent Bohemian tendencies says, “you can't stay long” “These kinds of commons, you won't ever get along” Armenian, it’s such a release Materialistic animosity The speed of life has no value, like dollar signs I loved an alien, who dabbled in art Of all visage, enema of the heart Wanderer, she's spent so much but there's that bliss in the air So smile! It's all sorts of worthwhile To see a world and not fret so much Bohemian tendencies says, “be spectacular Before the nebula men steal your fur” In the Caribbean, you dream a kite As your taxi, you can't walk all the time Travel hills of puce-mauve sands, the world in trance A true deviant, the thinking of All dreaming thoughts, and loves begot Tinkerer, what will we do when our brains run dry? Oh, no! Don't think about the end To love a life in due pretence  Bohemian tendencies says, “think fair, live now” “The world is watching with distaste of time in doubt” As a chameleon, should she go alone? The world is cold, except for times in colour Her world in dance, she'll do without me When in Bohemian, the first I've seen Of pastel stencils through her happi- Ness-tled in her loft home of the wind There she goes! Ain’t she a lovely wing? I hope she finds a world that sings Bohemian tendencies says, “to love and to hold But to let go, for treasures can mold” There she goes There she goes There she goes

What counsel has the hooded moon Put in thy heart, my shyly sweet, Of Love in ancient plenilune, Glory and stars beneath his feet -- - A sage that is but kith and kin With the comedian Capuchin? Believe me rather that am wise In disregard of the divine, A glory kindles in those eyes Trembles to starlight. Mine, O Mine! No more be tears in moon or mist For thee, sweet sentimentalist.

What Counsel Has the Hooded Moon
I'm no comedian, but to see you smile I become funny. I'm not rich but I will hustle to get you money. I'm no chef but your taste, I savor I desire your flavor. I'm no freak but new lovers, I love to meet. I'm no hoarder but admirers I love to keep. **I AM A POET A LIBRA A PEOPLE PLEASER**

Who do they same I am?
Toned, muscular, powerful beasts. This is the way the world chooses to see. Outraged, aggression, and dangerous too. Scared one day, they might bite you. Not even a second, by the looks, instant fear. This so called 'reputation' makes us tear. Continue to breed, Continue to Buy. Opt. to put them on a chain so tight. Opt. to make them fight. Judging them, at just first sight. Not bad dogs, just bad owners. When will the world see the light? Toned, masculine, powerful features. Beautiful and intelligent creatures. Ever so loving, ever so loyal. So goofy, and eager to please. Eager to love, Eager for affection. This is the way the world should see. A family dog, a protector. A comedian in ways. A runway model with natural beauty. A visitor, for those in pain and lonely. A caregiver for rehabilitation. A simple, lasting smile, A kind that sparks and stays for awhile. A partner against crime. A team mate whose there all the time. A worker, a player to love you at best. A companion beyond special. A dog, beyond the rest. A love, in life, with whatever is next. A best friend, to say the least. A Staffies not A beast. Staffies are the best.

The Truth About The Staffy
Cotton Candy Man Poem (6/7/2014) He was simple sugar, spun on hot air, soaked in pink, a tasty treat. He was cotton candy. I would wrap him around my finger, like I could coax a ring out of sugar and thin air. To have felt him melt in my mouth, each time the tip of my tongue got a taste. He was cotton candy. He was a carnival with all the best attractions. but balloon darts pop when you pour enough money into the game. but a dunk tank is just a plunge into shallow depths, a break from the sun. but elephants should be free, not tamed by fire and humans' greedy desire. but a clown without their makeup might as well be a less creepy comedian. but won over stuffed animals are just like cotton candy, a squishy substance when you need a stable solid. Step right up! Spotlight on the star of our circus show, see the cotton candy man. His heart made of sugar, a toxic substance. His breath's brevity enough to set off cotton candy's chemical reaction, scorching hot air against pink paint, there is nothing sweet about being spun. Dyed in bright colors to deliver a warped reality, he was seemingly a healthy vibrant, unlike the poison within. He was cotton candy, and I, a circus ****** craving him, freshly spun.

Cotton Candy Man
I use to laugh at ironic things No punishment for the bad deeds The Bible says that good 10 fold The universe returns to us in gold That fairytales and nursery rhymes Exist to scare and keep us in line But on this day fate stepped in And karma it seems is a comedian A lesson weaved throughout every line Carefully crafted as a warning sign It was a day like any other As usual jumped in the shower Quickly washed and rinsed my hair Noticed too late that it was NAIR! Every luscious lock and strand Fell out completely in my hand What seems like a sick joke being played Or demented parts a malicious prank A plot unfolded my part the lead The lines straight from a horror scene Like laws of nature or earths gravity The rules we bend to suit our need Like a boomerang’s invisible path It seems to follow when it comes back Even the ocean and it’s changing tides Needs the moon’s persuasive side We are the keepers of what we seek And what we sow we indeed will reap The nightmare that we fear the most Comes back to haunt us like a ghost Like Peter Pan and Captain Hook Just a good story in a children’s book what if the earth gets bored of us And decides that we are entertainment those characters we read as kids Like Pinocchio or the 3 little pigs Sleeping beauty or the ogre Shrek You thought was funny as a sketch Brought to life would pose a threat Although to you this seems far fetched The truth Ive written has not been stretched I hope you read this and know as fact What you put out there will soon come back

As I lay beside my darling On an early Sunday morn, I could feel her rounded softness Sleeping under blankets warm. My mind caroused the memories And loitered on it's way And found itself deliciously, Immersed in golden play. I remembered something special In the way my little boy would look As his eyes rose up in wonderment When I read his favorite book. And the joy involved in feeding A hungry little mouth When the porridge spooned all over From the eyebrows heading south. A tantalizing moment On the beach down by the sea, In the warm December sunshine With my happy family. We were running in the black sand Drawing circles with a stick As the surging waves approached them Laughing little boys were quick. Laughing, happy moments And some sad ones like the day When dear old Meg, our Labrador, Got sick and passed away. Young Boaz in his sadness Climbed the big tree to it's crown And it took a lot of pleading To persuade him to come down. And young Solly played the taniwha At the Cornwall Park school play And a better taniwha has yet To grace the stage today. A natural in his element This young comedian So hilariously funny As he drew the audience in. The tender, loving moments As we both strolled arm in arm Through the verdant Ferntree Gully With it's sunlit grace and charm. And the towering eucalyptus, Hanging wood smoke in the air And the whiplash resonation Of the lyrebird hidden there. Of Buttercup's wild parties When fancy dress was king, When everyone would whoop it up And laugh and dance and sing. When mum's and dad's and little kids All joined the happy throng With spud mashing as a ceremony And a night of fun and song. Of sitting in the garden With your feet up and a book And a cold beer at your elbow And a barbecue to cook. With the easy feel of family As they go about their day And the joyous sound of summer When two noisy tui's play. Memories of yesterday Moments in the life Of ecstasy and agony And wonderment and plight. And the ordinary ness of everything And the magic everywhere, Like the auburn in the sunlight As it strikes my darling's hair. Marshalg Mangere Bridge 10 October 2009

Young Boaz in his sadness Climbed the big tree to it's crown And it took a lot of pleading To persuade him to come down. And young Solly played the taniwha At the Cornwall Park school play And a better taniwha has yet To grace the stage today. A natural in his element This young comedian So hilariously funny As he drew the audience in. The tender, loving moments As we both strolled arm in arm Through the verdant Ferntree Gully With it's sunlit grace and charm. And the towering eucalyptus, Hanging wood smoke in the air And the whiplash resonation Of the lyrebird hidden there. Of Buttercup's wild parties When fancy dress was king, When everyone would whoop it up And laugh and dance and sing. When mum's and dad's and little kids All joined the happy throng With spud mashing as a ceremony And a night of fun and song. Of sitting in the garden With your feet up and a book And a cold beer at your elbow And a barbecue to cook. With the easy feel of family As they go about their day And the joyous sound of summer When two noisy tui's play. Memories of yesterday Moments in the life Of ecstasy and agony And wonderment and plight. And the ordinary ness of everything And the magic everywhere, Like the auburn in the sunlight As it strikes my darling's hair. Marshalg Mangere Bridge 10 October 2009

This is an ode to my friends. For the ones I've loved since day one the ones I have learnt to love and for the ones I hate to love. This is for my friend, for the one, I got drunk with first. We stole a litre bottle of cider and four beers then drank them in the park at midnight. This is an ode to my friend who cries at parties, who swears he will die alone. This is for my friend who laughs at every joke, the **** and comedian but shakes when no one is looking. This is an ode to my friends, for the one who's grandma is dying but they still, manage to draw on a smile and present a joke. This is for my friend who has depression, Or the friend who has anxiety, and asks me to speak for her at restaurants, This is an ode to my friends, who is finally taking control of her body after being trapped in the wrong one. For the friend who is scared to leave the house when it's icy because he might slip and hurt his *** For the friend, I fancied till I was sixteen, and even though it's been years my lips still burn when I look at her. This is an ode to my friends who leave me out of conversations. who have inside jokes they sprout when I'm around This is for the ones that went to the movies to see the film they knew I was dying to see. This is an ode to my friend, who broke her leg whilst dancing in her favourite musical, and the part was given to someone else. This is for the friend whose mother died when she was 12 but she remains the strongest person ever. This is an ode to those who forget I'm their friend, who ignore me when they're upset, who tell me daily that they love me, who cry at Disney movies, who laugh at videos of past times, who I hate that I adore, who I cry over, because I can't make them happy anymore. This is an ode to my friends, for the one who is so self-conscious, he wears baggy jumpers to hide his stomach. This is an ode to my friend who has scary parents, for the friends who made a pyramid out of stones and raised a nation, for the friends who try their hardest and still achieve nothing, for my friends the world has seemingly forgotten, This is an Ode to my friends, the ones I know I will die loving, they give me cups of tea with two sugars when I'm having a bad episode, for the ones that cry when they hear a certain song, because it reminds them of when I tried to off myself in the toilet, for the one that has never had a kiss, for the one who refuses to get married. This is an ode to my friends, the family I chose, the ones that send me stupid messages at four am, then question why I'm awake so late. For the friend that gets blackout drunk, for the one with weak knees, who, when she laughs, falls to the ground in a fit of giggles, for the friends, I will marry, loving. Speak now or forever hold your peace, An ode to my friends, who I love more than anything, as we collapse through the stars, I'll hear them laughing at a joke.

We are Manchester. The City, The place, we’re hospitable people with a smile on our face. You can beat us, mistreat us, and blow us to hell. We have had it all before and we don’t dwell. We’re the northern powerhouse of the northwestern elite, Where the Geordie's, The Scousers, The Yorkshire’s retreat. The premier League, The Roses Cricket, The Heineken Cup Is a one way ticket. United and City two football teams with stadiums full, bursting at the seams. We are Mancunians Of this fair City, The People, The Love, The old nitty gritty The worker, The Shirker, The Homeless, The immigrants, each one of these they are all itinerants. The Steel, The Cotton, long since forgotten the old smokey chimneys blew out smoke that was rotten. The Massacre at Peterloo. Local politicians just don’t have a clue. With all the sights this city has on show here’s something that people don’t really know. Manchester is where New Zealand Born Ernest Rutherford split the Atom. We Are Manchester, The City, the Place, where Sir Humphrey Chetham has his musical grace a school of music with musical taste. And where a  man with a paintbrush painted streets on boxes. I don’t think Lowry ever painted foxes. And A comedian from Collyhurst who was absolutely awesome, a real funny guy by the name of Les Dawson, and where a man from Chorlton on Medlock became Prime Minister back in the day. David Lloyd-George had a hell of  a lot to say. We Are Manchester and it's the place for me. And a proud Mancunian I’m glad to be. I’ll sit in a cafe watching people pass by. They are all in a hurry and I wonder why. I see a business man in a three piece suit, and the homeless guy that is counting his loot. There's the girl on the street giving out free papers she is smoking those ciggies that give off those vapours. It's pouring with rain and she’s getting wet she’s worried about money to pay off her debt. We Are Manchester and this is our City don’t waste your time we don’t want no pity. We are Manchester we are steeped in tradition we leave other cities standing. There’s no competition. Where A man from Moss Side a Vicar not a Dean called Rev George Garrett invented the submarine. And where the great Anthony Wilson was a journalist & impresario and a man named John  Nichols invented the great drink called Vimto. and so When he wrote “This Is the Place” I’m sure he did so with a smile on his face. We Are Manchester and I’ll state our case because we are Manchester and we are ace.

You found friction, when so many told you to slip down with them. You were the safety to a gun-wielding chorus screaming: "Fire!" Shoved from the Fourth you fought to protect, to being snowed-in, half a hemisphere away from the coconuts and palm trees you fled. Hotel room to hotel room, the flesh from your skin dissolves, piece by piece — like a nation's artifacts. Resigned to watching a comedian's suicide trend on Twitter — an individual who made it easier to laugh and forget the words: "Liberty and Justice for All." You should grimace. Silenced. Snowed-in. Unable to even say, "America — please shovel me out."

A Snowed-in Hero
I woke ahead of the morning, for reasons I hardly know. I clad myself in fancy clothes but for reasons I hardly know. I put on a tie - attempted a knot but failed as I waste more time. I look at my clock, I look at my watch, Wonder why it did not chime. I gulp a steaming cup of espresso, a shot of adrenaline pumped briskly, I took my phone, dashed out quickly, I then forgot my keys. Found them seep in between the couch, I had to sweat it out. Crumpled shirt and an unbalanced tie I foresee a morning shout. I ignore a typical Monday dusk, as I put on my cotton socks, Slipped my toes into my brogues, I took one last look at the clock. I still had time, it is still early, Perhaps a cigarette before I drive, I lit one up, minty inhale, the sun has started to rise. I rushed in the car, started the engine, and put my gear to reverse. I zoom right out my greasy gate, My tires, all four of them, bursts. I took one look in the mirror, I knew it's down the drain, I might as well call in sick, and tell my boss it's the rain. Who would believe that all four tires, would deflate so quickly at once? It sounds like a bad joke by a bad comedian, not believable - like a very bad pun. I took one last look at my watch, It's way past 'possible' o-clock. I left the car to fend for itself, I went into the house without my socks. I jumped right back into my silky bed, happy to see my five pillows. I am not excited it's the start of the week, but Tuesday can never be this mellow. I shut the window, pulled the blinds, Sleep deprived made me berserk. "Mundane Monday", "Monday blues", Whatever...you're the one at work.

In my entourage people laugh I got used to it. In my center stage I was the comedian who never likes his job. In my closing remarks their entertainment was fulfilled. I on the other hand got drained from my mistakes turned to be pretty funny, never was that my intention.

**Profanity is a ******* Tool.** Profanity is Subjective. Profanity doesn't necessarily show intellectual or moral paucity. Profanity is a form of emphasis; a form of ******* catharsis, an aspect of humour. ******* humour: A goldmine rooted in Shadow,   excavated by Logic and which seems, for the most part, wasted on the irrefutably illogical, or at least bi-polar (if not higher-multi-polar) masses. *"Anyone who relies on any one given tool is a fool, as anyone who denounces a given tool for how it has been used by others is outright stupid."* A carpenter who can only use a hammer is quite restricted, A musician who can only play alone is no good in a band, A poet who only writes can't show the world how it's meant to be read (if at all), A comedian who only swears has little else to offer, A person who only speaks but doesn't act on it is a liar. A carpenter who won't use a hammer is self-sabotaging. A musician who can only play with others has no personal skill. A poet who refuses to write starves oneself of potential. A comedian who won't swear better have a good point. A person who only acts but reuses to speak had better be a monk or mime! *(The last two were perhaps failed, even vein attempts at humour.. I shall leave that up to you to decide!)* Profanity is a Tool: I believe that no matter the profanity, a message can still be well received by those who care enough to receive it. Better still are those who can interpret the profanity as humourous accentuation, emphasis, catharsis and not necessarily as overly-abrasive and immature. That said, some people are just totally ******* immature about it. If you can't stand the profanity, get the **** off the internet. 4srs. Better yet, shut yourself away from the world lest you ever deal with that which you find unsettling. *So ist das Leben. Telle est la vie. Así es la vida. Such is life.*
