ON SEEING ONE ON A LADY’S BONNET AT CHURCH Ha! whare ye gaun, ye crowlin ferlie! Your impudence protects you sairly: I canna say but ye strunt rarely Owre gauze and lace; Tho’ faith, I fear ye dine but sparely On sic a place. Ye ugly, creepin, blastit wonner, Detested, shunned by saunt an’ sinner, How daur ye set your fit upon her, Sae fine a lady! *** somewhere else and seek your dinner, On some poor body. Swith, in some beggar’s haffet squattle; There ye may creep, and sprawl, and sprattle Wi’ ither kindred, jumpin cattle, In shoals and nations; Whare horn or bane ne’er daur unsettle Your thick plantations. Now haud ye there, ye’re out o’ sight, Below the fatt’rels, snug an’ tight; Na faith ye yet! ye’ll no be right Till ye’ve got on it, The vera tapmost, towering height O’ Miss’s bonnet. My sooth! right bauld ye set your nose out, As plump an’ grey as onie grozet: O for some rank, mercurial rozet, Or fell, red smeddum, I’d gie ye sic a hearty dose o’t, *** dress your droddum! I *** na been surprised to spy You on an auld wife’s flainen toy; Or aiblins some bit duddie boy, On’s wyliecoat; But Miss’s fine Lunardi!—fie! How daur ye do’t? O Jenny, dinna toss your head, An’ set your beauties a’ abread! Ye little ken what cursed speed The blastie’s makin! Thae winks and finger-ends, I dread, Are notice takin! O, *** some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as others see us! It *** frae monie a blunder free us An’ foolish notion: What airs in dress an’ gait *** lea’e us, And ev’n Devotion!

The right hand that harkened to soothe thy brows forsooth vanguards the left that spells thy ruin. She came to thee in nakedness ‘ye saw, thy yellow grin played her like a clavecin. Whilom vase filled with posy gently care, thy indecision maketh poison alack, from its petals sith thee became a hare thy hands darketh the ink already black. A sweven verily haunts the fortress, swith as the horns of a centaur bleed her to her I swore fealty my naked mistress, my lance revealed thy realms of plunder. In the blood thee spilled, made mirror, there lay, reflecting a portrait of vile beasts and a man. The creature that ‘ye bade devour thy prey is the wolf that one day shall swallow the sun.

Lance ‘lot like a Feather so Light
I met thee,on 1st of September we glanced at each other,it was a moment to remember. In a short time we fell in love and we fitted,like hand in a glove. Our passion endured for 7 months, and love for thee,still hunts.(me) For three months segregated we were, thy warmth,was replaced by fur. (oh,if only) Betimes our love paths encountered eft, it was a swith of my heart theft. -This time our love persevered more, but it terminated,because it was not strong as afore. Inevitable,our separation was but neither of us,could find a cause. - Time was passing,and we weren't together Thy love slipped,as if it was a feather. All we needed was that, true glance, and eyes shall say 'we ought to have another chance'. Our love blossomed once again, i believe we are said to be insane Sith we are soothly happy now, i offer to love you for ever,if you allow! *Somewhither on the sky,far away - Picasso drew our pathway. All along it was only one road, we just needed to unbind the node.*

Love with Intermissions
i. O'er the the Almighty's siege- A baetyl soared, betwixt the Floor's, of aqua green; swith I was fixed, upon her wing's. ii. O' this queen-struck me, with Her baculus, conducting, a calefacient calix, thus the welkin carved the omnipresent Out from me and Jane's pinion's. iii. Camaca Atman's, coursing The future together; sacchariferous Of the celestial, making love, mating- Doves, bygone messenger's, sending An amour' letter. ©Brandon Nagley ©Lonesome poet's poetry ©Earl Jane Nagley ( Filipino rose) dedication

red pain+joy
The light often dazzled her sleepless night, she spent that midnight blue, faced the stars, rays of moon, the sweer clouds and somenight rains wet her skin.. But that light never left her alone. It warm'd her wet skin, make her enough swith, She reached her goal she ever wanted. Now, somewhere she feel the light As blessings of her lost loving Grandmom. #light #faith #blessings #goal

She and her light
Why my thoughts are again Being redirected to her Why incuring myself into a dagger That once stabbed me in back Why haunted for someone who Doesn't even care Why falling for someone Who doesn't deserve my love It seems like I'm in a swith darkness That looks like a daylight Why my mind realise all this And still don't let it go.
