"frivilous" poems
I am a frivilous liar. They fall from my lips, buttons from a blouse, sprinkles from your birthday cake.

Lies
Twisting shadows Surround the palace Causing a haunting aura Keeping guests on their toes Ready to sprint, at any advancing move Wine is served The waitors sudden movements cause the light of heart to flinch Music is playing Harpists strumming Nerves are calmed As the night progresses, The past is forgotten, Intoxication is bliss A guest is refused another glass An uprising evolves Shadows and dignity forgotten a fight emerges on the crowded floor Delightment surrounds the halls Excitement is in the faces of servailers First bruises Now blood The opponent backs away Streaming tears The opponent is led to safety. The inflictor, pushed down. Muscians attempt to uplift the disturbed But sweet songs prove frivilous to the matter Some walk out too much of a night Carridges swerve and crash, A result of drunk choffers Most make it home But some die in pleasure...

An Ending Night
A vivid ambition pursues me-- I trip, head-long, into frivilous deceit My heartstrings quiver with envy Solace evades its temperament The perception I had peddled fled from me Its estranged discourse won't stay grounded My heart beats like the empty seconds Here, deceit is my faceless mistress My mind is aligned to naïve regret-- Tossing and turning throughout the night I gave up my morals in seconds Now, I am my own Accuser** A mind in crisis precedes me-- There is no place to crawl towards volition I fight tooth-and-nail with my conscience In the end: The Silence Overtakes Us...
