/ although i'd love to go back to the cinema of, bell, book & candle from the 1950s in early technicolour... can i? don't think so... trapped the rekindled narrative of myth... i wish i could, do the supra-capitalist, drunk at 5 in the afternoon, and still pulling the strings... early nostalgia of what was late nostalgia of what was 19th century german concerning ancient greece... i chose 17th century france... because? because... why could it ever be england as primo optio?! am i either that daft, or as much stiff for waiting for eddie zee theerd?! well? well done, you guessed my thinking: write a fictive narrative, it'll last longer, like a photograph. immigrant song, led zeppelin - probably the only grand theatre plus,           of thor: rangarok; i still don't know where those M16s came from...   and?       given they used a led zeppelin's song? i honestly, don't want to know. i was honestly going to favour a black sabbath oeuvre, using only solitude    by the witches' congregation ask, aspect, or subsequent, marketing ponce scheme.

I lived in a town where Sunny D dreams rested lazily on Mondays. Nothing is go go go - no - it’s lazy to rise. Lazy to bed. Lazy to meet up with friends at the beach. Lazily chewing on donuts while we listen to songs that lazily leak through the teeth of our radio free censorship both lazily digesting in our sour guts making us lazy in the way we think. Feeding off the television, white noise static permeating the folds of our lazy minds. We now regurgitate headlines at parties lazily arguing, debating, though not a single thought is our own.  We are lazy in the way that we say we’ll accomplish something. Making up little kid dreams for broken promises of “I’ll get to it tomorrow”. But we never do. Never did. Just lazily puff on ***** shards. Our crushed bits of ignorance. Every night. Lazy sods. Working, sleeping, working, smoking, sleeping, working. The cycle goes on. In this land where time takes a nap. Where magnolia groves now rest lazily in the space of an old man’s memories.  You see, even time is lazy among salty air humidity that clings to lungs in a wet rag sensation so that we are lazy even in the way that we breathe. That’s why our grandparents tell us all those stories. So that we are not caught up in the lazy way light filters through the leaves of citrine sunsets that mingle into dawn. Still, we yawn a question “what was I supposed to be doing again?” Here in this land where we all seem to exist in a static myth. Start another lazy day. Lost to IT. The big IT. The ever growing IT. The IT that consumes our lazy days with lazy work and lazy sleep and too much lazy play. It’s easy here to let go of what this land used to be. Back when gold ships carried Ponce de Leon upon God’s wings to a place where Highway 19 was no pavement or brick or man made industry but rough and raw and hot and undiscovered Timucuan territory. We effortlessly lose sight of our own history to lazy daydreaming   That slow,     drip          drip              drip of time leaking into tomorrow leaking into tomorrow leaking into tomorrow leaking into tomorrow Until your future    leaks into tomorrow Until you wake up from this lazy hell. Until you realize there is nothing left ahead on your lazy path Until the future has become your present and you are out of Days to dawdle and to say “I will deal with it tomorrow” before it all None too slowly Rather abruptly Comes to a clashing end.

Everyone’s so **** far away Everything is on steroids And as all we know Swells to sizes more Than even god planed They inevitably come in between us The way a 70 inch TV splits a family apart To opposite hemispheres of their “living”- room -world “Can you hear me over there Brother? Sister?” “Not listening.” “Can’t see you.” Electronic wedges that push us farther And farther from our fathers “Dad I just called because you never answered my textual message And email is too slow as you well know.” “Come home son.” He concedes “I lost my way home pop.” “You’re right, I guess the 50’s are done and The Wonder Years is long out of syndication.” So I’m an alien on this ******* like stretch of land. Ponce de Leon would claim it for his peninsula as A peninsula of eternal life A greater man than I would label it “The happiest place on earth.” But all I know is this: This earthen ***** might as well be an island off the coast of nowhere Gainesville might as well be in Russia, rather The Steppes of Asia Minor And you most certainly are An aberration from a softer night far ago I guess I’ll see it all half full and live In my State of Confusion Located somewhere between the North and South Pole Call it self pity, but no one but people like me understand The concept of one million miles Meet me halfway, someplace if you agree Live in States of Unknown So then you will Always have a home

Lesley’s Tattoo Proves True
Region of life and light! Land of the good whose earthly toils are o'er! Nor frost nor heat may blight Thy vernal beauty, fertile shore, Yielding thy blessed fruits for evermore! There without crook or sling, Walks the good shepherd; blossoms white and red Round his meek temples cling; And to sweet pastures led, His own loved flock beneath his eye is fed. He guides, and near him they Follow delighted, for he makes them go Where dwells eternal May, And heavenly roses blow, Deathless, and gathered but again to grow. He leads them to the height Named of the infinite and long-sought Good, And fountains of delight; And where his feet have stood Springs up, along the way, their tender food. And when, in the mid skies, The climbing sun has reached his highest bound, Reposing as he lies, With all his flock around, He witches the still air with numerous sound. From his sweet lute flow forth Immortal harmonies, of power to still All passions born of earth, And draw the ardent will Its destiny of goodness to fulfil. Might but a little part, A wandering breath of that high melody, Descend into my heart, And change it till it be Transformed and swallowed up, oh love! in thee. Ah! then my soul should know, Beloved! where thou liest at noon of day, And from this place of woe Released, should take its way To mingle with thy flock and never stray.

you! ******* English! ponce!
So you know How the whispers of the night Call upon your name So you know the trembling of one's soul is lost So you know A chest full of empty hearts Has taken to the edge of earth So you know,so you know Reaching back as my strength fails In times of trouble I'm noble,but humble Like a lion Quietly & waiting to ponce So you know That weakness of blood Is spilled upon my hands so you know, So you know You're the woman Of many faces Who is conquering My freedom from the world So you know,so you know I bid you, Farewell My lady of the night So you know

So You Know
Miles and miles and miles away, is a big lovely place we like to play, we jump and bounce, we we spin and ponce, all in the middle row's house Daisy,Zack,Seb and Fi, we all wonder so dearly, how they are such a fabulous family, And we wonder in the middle row's house Meanwhile downstairs the adults are all fine until they start drinking sebastian's posh wine , suddenly everyones up and dancing, their all drunk and some are prancing, They drink in the middle rows house Upstairs the kids play and play Maybe they think it's the only way, say play Ava say play Everyone plays in the middle row's house WE ALL LOVE THE MIDDLE ROWS

The middle row's
Yes I know my sense of humour is dark, But if you didn’t want to know then you should not have asked. Yes it offends, that’s the aim of the game. But it’s all in jest, done in humours name. No you don’t like it, but why should I care? If you don’t like me or my humour then stay over there. Because when you whine about it I will fail to care. When you complain about it you will get aired. I don’t involve myself in your pathetic goings on, Never at all, not even once. So stay out of my life and mind your own for once. I’ll never be interested in your life, so leave it you ponce. You’re a fully grown man, that I can see. But a pathetic little boy you will always be. You want to give your opinion but really there’s no need, We’d get more useful info from talking to a tree. Your mind is tiny but your voice is loud. You have nothing to say but you say it so proud. I don’t care what you think and I never will, So stop flapping your gums and keep them still. Call whomever you like and feel you need, Bring your army to little old me. I will politely ask you all to leave, And when you don’t I’ll call the police.

china: never put all your eggs into one basket. true that, we gave more riches to china than anyone could have thought, riches that aren't gold or diamonds or champagne bottles or restaurants with £500 a head meals or a grand fashion industry with designer labels... we gave them the single most important of the riches: work. odd, isn't it, back then it was work, but the steel industry is collapsing in the west with cheap chinese steel, cheaper even than the indian steel... manufacturing jobs are gone, obesity is on the rise because we have no ****** outlets, only the hamster palaces of treadmills and weights... and that's counter-productive it would seem... all the menial jobs were exported and in came bureaucratic jobs and fancy ponce jobs of the office dealing with branding and aesthetics... making a brand of yourself, getting paid a million quid to post a video of eating a tablespoon of cinnamon or a whole jar of peanut butter... the jobs that created the gigantic market place by feminism... i know women did the heavy duty stuff like making shells... but that was during world war ii... i know they're capable... but why suddenly clap and applaud where there are female engineers on building sites... but no female bricklayers? such a successful theory? women soldiers but no female bricklayers?! might as well say that i'm the broken outdated robot in the dungeons of a ***** bank. - everything now has a sticker: made in china... made in china... vietnam... etc.; obviously i'm stating the obvious - but there's a slight warning floating about the place... erziehung macht frei (education sets you free) does not mean: go to university get a degree... it's the persistence of education, education becomes like working, there's no achievement basis... good example, i got a degree, but **** all work in my desired education training - they're not even employing people with chemistry degrees in places where, technically, chemists are intended to be... poetry became the only option, the last resort... not for therapeutic reasons either.

Seven Caesars A haven in Bensalem To come in from the storm The Banquet Hall from Heaven A zesty place to keep warm Seven gilded statues wearing breastplates All seven with spears and raised golden fingers Its lavish atmosphere scintillates The overall effect still lingers Long after the garlic aftertaste Has departed from your tongue Sumptuous food will never waste The ambience is always fun Pizzaro had his City of Gold Ponce De Leon had his Fountain of Youth But we’ve found our treasure hold Ride Route One North for the proof @1995, 2006 Linda Barrett A Time for Love @2013 Linda Barrett Two lovers On Society’s opposite sides Meet together: One upholding its Age Limit laws Preventing citizens from living Past their expiration dates The other seeks the Spirit world for answers Outside of Society’s rules Both unite as a single unit Run from the Eye Which sees them both Seer and Reaper Two individuals divided Against One Society Add love to the formula Now what is the product?

most days i'm thinking: thank god i didn't give you a smile; for all the love that abounds and binds man, thank god mine was not translated into a failure of dis-encouraged children not achieving a higher ideal; leave me dreaming, and you too left the happiest ably resourceful in me minding the outer so-called existential suburbia; i know, the english vocabulary does not like the ponce of philosophical involvement... it doesn't even like the word as such... it prefers: manager of deleted files, safety manager of hammers, contract supervisor of termites, you know... all the Monty Python ha ha, goose strut ha ha (funny walk ministry); very debasing contrasts of "real" jobs not being kindred of coal-miners... no real jobs in the office, although sold as such they are considered "real", to get to grips with underused triceps and quasi-haemarrhoids of sitting on your *** all day playing candy crush sh'aga... or some **** about the Shanghai stock-market creating a booming Hong Kong housing experiment of noodle lovers ready for some artificial intelligence ***** chat; hey, if pink is the new ***** of fluffy handcuffs... sign me up! i'm ready for the near voyeuristic claustrophobia of living in over-crowded high-rise accommodation.

who wants to know the exact day one will die? (not I, not I, says the fly to the spider)   but she tells me, this crooked old lady from a dream… she circles me, prods me with bony fingers, ogles me through blue blinking eyes, her mouth curling in curious, curdled smile   you will be here a while--you have until you are seventy-five years plus a day   how do you know this? mostly in your eyes, she says   but they are not red, from lack of sleep, I protest, and my blood numbers are grand, all within those blessed ranges still red, she says, and being duly desiccated by wily winds you do not control   but I still climb mountains, I proclaim and look for Ponce De Leon’s fountains? she asks   why do you argue with me, in this liquid world of sleep, for I am thee, and you are me     when I awake, I know not where she went or from whence she came, but woefully I concede, the old lady, and this teller of tales are one and the same

dream 1/9/2015
Youth has killed them all, the lunatic screams, bemoaning his plight to all who will ignore. *those who cry for their mothers at night, THEY are the madmen, whimpering and sniveling* 'I don't want to be responsible' *only to realize at some point later in life that no one gives a **** what they want just as long as they keep their mouths shut and shovel their **** to keep the system as one, man! All this bull about free will will take them all of nowhere! The more they try to capture youth, the older they will get and the quicker they will die! Don't they see it?* And even though he warned himself, he died the same way.

Static crackling ecstatically; manic pop Transistor hissing and spitting; sideboard atop First when there’s nothing… But a slow glowing dream… Pirouette such as whirling dervish makes Adolescent prancer twirls; leg warmer fakes All alone I have cried… Silent tears full of pride… Breathless incantation; future forged in dance Performance fascination; leap upon the chance What a feeling... Bein’s believing… Neon flashes bedeck wrists and bonce Peers laughter flash like fire; a ponce Take your passion… And make it happen… The music shields, deflects. Antacid; taunts abate Rhyhmic dreamer energized; blind to all the hate Pictures come alive… You can dance right through your life… As Bergen-Belsen ghost yet still aware Lost dreamer segues silently on fetid air Bruised and battered, I couldn’t tell what I felt… I am unrecognizable to myself… Shuffling as garish Geisha; white but not with paint Breathless as fifties bombshell; heaving sick and feint At night I could hear the blood in my veins… It was black and whispering as the rain… With steel partner; straight firm and slim of hip Rigid in rigor’d waltz; moving labouredly with drip I walked the avenue, ‘til my legs felt like stone… I heard the voices of friends, vanished and gone… Faithless rusting engine combusts toxic blood Failing sack of sinew lies where dancer stood Night has fallen, I’m lyin’ awake… I can feel myself fading away… Monotone white noise; assuring beep Dancer dreams in endless sleep There was a time when men were kind… There was a time when love was blind… ©pofacedpoetry (Billy Reynard-Bowness – 2018 – All rights reserved) Acknowledgements: 1.

Antacid; taunts abate Rhyhmic dreamer energized; blind to all the hate Pictures come alive… You can dance right through your life… As Bergen-Belsen ghost yet still aware Lost dreamer segues silently on fetid air Bruised and battered, I couldn’t tell what I felt… I am unrecognizable to myself… Shuffling as garish Geisha; white but not with paint Breathless as fifties bombshell; heaving sick and feint At night I could hear the blood in my veins… It was black and whispering as the rain… With steel partner; straight firm and slim of hip Rigid in rigor’d waltz; moving labouredly with drip I walked the avenue, ‘til my legs felt like stone… I heard the voices of friends, vanished and gone… Faithless rusting engine combusts toxic blood Failing sack of sinew lies where dancer stood Night has fallen, I’m lyin’ awake… I can feel myself fading away… Monotone white noise; assuring beep Dancer dreams in endless sleep There was a time when men were kind… There was a time when love was blind… ©pofacedpoetry (Billy Reynard-Bowness – 2018 – All rights reserved) Acknowledgements: 1.

My half life becomes me I laugh at pain Because it's all I know Three ducks in a row Three blind mice Me all alone The farmers wife is angry My dying energy I can not find the source of strength I used to know So I go searching With feeble hands and aching back Into a new world My mind is reeling Ponce de leon thought he found the fountain of youth He was wrong Still I am much like him I thought I found you

Ponce De Leon
I cross the bridge to nowhere, in the cold, in my underwear Intense winds push me to edges, where I contemplate ledges Looking down, spirits swim and stare; icy waters are their lair I levitate and meditate; medicate with mental dredges Such mundane nonchalance; my bridge leads to idiot savants I would be crowned their King, kindred soul of unsound meditations We've left our lost souls unburied, unhurried to right the carriage Take a deep breath of the ether of dregs and suppurations Take the one whom you love, not in marriage, in ************ On the bridge, I pass a young ponce and hear echoes of "Bon Chance!" Purple rags greet me at the gate, royal flags of highest distinction Winking my eye, scratching my head, the dead are now forgotten Deep in my pit, so deep I forget, a pang of extinction In my palace of darkness, no light will shine on the rotten In the court of fools, coarse avowals can't be washed by the fonts So lines are drawn by idiot courtiers and indigent warriors Cities with no regret or sorrow, tomorrow trampled to tatters Through smoke and burnt flesh we ***** we hope to soothe the worriers We are all Babylonians, babbling on as if nothing matters The bridges to nowhere we cross, we cross bridges to Babylons

Espera, espera. No marches, espera. Quédate, entreguémonos a este idilio. Espera, quédate, que el esperar nos puede cambiar la suerte. Pueda ser que las aguas cambien nuestro destino, y nos entreguen al más fríos de los fatalismos. Espera, espera, que no es cierto que Ponce de Leon encontró la Fuente de la Juventud. No es cierto que exista una fuente de juventud para el amor. No es cierto que el azar tenga compasión por lo que a su tiempo no se concretó. Espera, que esperar el tiempo correcto para entregarnos a este amor es un error. Pueda ser que sea el tiempo que venza al viento y termine mareando y subyugando las ráfagas de este amor. Espera, quédate, que este amor precisa nuestra inmediata entrega. Que al marcharte, estas sentenciando mi corazón a una larga, permanente, y eterna espera de innegables años sin primaveras, de una soledad avasalladora, intermitente, doblegante, y en un aterrante precipicio de amargura. Espera, quédate, que si marchas, reinara la penumbra de saber que un solo beso, en el preciso momento, hubiese cambiado mi fortuna, y la senectud de la única fuente de la juventud que es el ahora en tu entrega. La fuente de la juventud de este amor …………………….es el hoy y ahora. Por favor no marches. Espera. LeydisProse 5/15/2017 https://m.facebook.com/LeydisProse/

Fuentes sin aguas
we once ponce’d carpets like it was coral, and we said: love love love rhythm - able on the broken legs with allegiance to rhyme; we once ponce’d carpet like it was coral all puff-up fluffy on the singleton’s touch consecrating a legislation of marriage of opposite materialisation to craft god’s itchy snap magic spontaneity to bulletproof the genesis fake into an exodus - and decided it was a lifelong ambition to be 29 and retire; well, enough millionaires around us to suit such ambitions - so we just pranced to striptease tunes and begot our mothers’ virginity, provided we saw the ***** and the antarctic to be less walt disney and more walter docile si si.
