I send my voice into your mouth You return the compliment I am the Count of Cannizzaro You are Her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta I am the thaumaturgic chain You hold the opera glass and cards You become extemporaneous song I am your tutor You are my invisible seed I am Timour the Tartar You are my curious trick I your enchanted caddy I am your confounding doll You my confounded dummy.

The Ventriloquists
Gusto ko ring maranasang makulong para naman magka-thrill kahit kaunti ang buhay kong napaka-boring. Pero gusto kong makulong nang walang ginagawang anumang krimen. At a loob ng kulungan ay pabahuan ng hininga, kili-kili, puwet at singit; paramihan ng libag sa leeg, tinga sa gilagid, kalyo sa labi, at tartar sa ngipin. Doon na rin masusubok ang aking pagiging best actor sa pagkukunwaring makadiyos ako sa pagdadala ko ng banal na libro sa lahat ng oras, minu-minuto upang parolya ay aking matamo at kinabukasan ay laya na ako. Hustisya ay kaydaling laruin, sistema ay kaydaling butasin, buong kuwento ng aking tula ay uulit-ulitin.

When things were going great we'd eat transcendental dinners, we'd take livers in rainbow saucers and ladle them in tartar sauce until our mouths were full of salt, sometimes we'd go to Thai China and make interstellar fighters out of the wise guts of cream-colored Starships. But the nights when we went to Burger King were the greatest, we'd have simple dinners: 99 cent burgers and fries like elephant ears, we'd sit in our booth in the corner, you farting ketchup out of like twenty packets into a red **** pile, and I farted like twenty farts out of my *** but I like simple things; they are natural even if they don't sound that way.

Transcendentalism.
When he was a youth of fifteen or twenty, He chased a wild horse, he caught him and rode him, He shot the white-browed mountain tiger, He defied the yellow-bristled Horseman of Ye. Fighting single- handed for a thousand miles, With his naked dagger he could hold a multitude. ...Granted that the troops of China were as swift as heaven's thunder And that Tartar soldiers perished in pitfalls fanged with iron, General Wei Qing's victory was only a thing of chance. And General Li Guang's thwarted effort was his fate, not his fault. Since this man's retirement he is looking old and worn: Experience of the world has hastened his white hairs. Though once his quick dart never missed the right eye of a bird, Now knotted veins and tendons make his left arm like an osier. He is sometimes at the road-side selling melons from his garden, He is sometimes planting willows round his hermitage. His lonely lane is shut away by a dense grove, His vacant window looks upon the far cold mountains But, if he prayed, the waters would come gushing for his men And never would he wanton his cause away with wine. ...War-clouds are spreading, under the Helan Range; Back and forth, day and night, go feathered messages; In the three River Provinces, the governors call young men -- And five imperial edicts have summoned the old general. So he dusts his iron coat and shines it like snow- Waves his dagger from its jade hilt in a dance of starry steel. He is ready with his strong northern bow to smite the Tartar chieftain -- That never a foreign war-dress may affront the Emperor. ...There once was an aged Prefect, forgotten and far away, Who still could manage triumph with a single stroke.

Song of an Old General

This is the Arsenal. From floor to ceiling, Like a huge ***** rise the burnished arms; But from their silent pipes no anthem pealing Startles the villages with strange alarms. Ah! what a sound will rise, how wild and dreary, When the death-angel touches those swift keys! What loud lament and dismal Miserere Will mingle with their awful symphonies! I hear even now the infinite fierce chorus, The cries of agony, the endless groan, Which, through the ages that have gone before us, In long reverberations reach our own. On helm and harness rings the Saxon hammer, Through Cimbric forest roars the Norseman’s song, And loud, amid the universal clamor, O’er distant deserts sounds the Tartar gong. I hear the Florentine, who from his palace Wheels out his battle-bell with dreadful din, And Aztec priests upon their teocallis Beat the wild war-drums made of serpent’s skin; The tumult of each sacked and burning village; The shout that every prayer for mercy drowns; The soldiers’ revels in the midst of pillage; The wail of famine in beleaguered towns; The bursting shell, the gateway wrenched asunder, The rattling musketry, the clashing blade; And ever and anon, in tones of thunder The diapason of the cannonade. Is it, O man, with such discordant noises, With such accursed instruments as these, Thou drownest Nature’s sweet and kindly voices, And jarrest the celestial harmonies? Were half the power, that fills the world with terror, Were half the wealth bestowed on camps and courts, Given to redeem the human mind from error, There were no need of arsenals or forts: The warrior’s name would be a name abhorred! And every nation, that should lift again Its hand against a brother, on its forehead Would wear forevermore the curse of Cain! Down the dark future, through long generations, The echoing sounds grow fainter and then cease; And like a bell, with solemn, sweet vibrations, I hear once more the voice of Christ say, “Peace!” Peace! and no longer from its brazen portals The blast of War’s great ***** shakes the skies! But beautiful as songs of the immortals, The holy melodies of love arise.

Carnival carvings seep into your tombstone. And from the ceiling, we hanging, in red and black striped pajamas watched you get lowered. The jesters        cartwheel in my laugh, they travel and trial, tediously tar, and rat aches in to my tartar. I weep for the wayward west, that (you never explicitly promised) we were to visit. I've seemed to begun, helter-skelter a few;                    steam trombones There are no masonry aemons. Of ghouls gnaws only poetry, awaiting our reunion, my dearest Laika- forever deceased.

Laika
In the sky of my mind Echoed the winds of longing I silenced the noise And listened to sweet nostalgia Nostalgia's song tasted like Honey, tartar and rose petals Smoke rose from each petal Forming clouds in the sky of my mind The winds of longing blew harsh Each petrous note of nostalgia piercing the clouds And hence came the downpour Of suns that set too soon And suns that never rose Of moons that never were full And stars with frozen winks Of galaxies with uncharted maps And of rainbows with colours gone rogue But when all was done, and the downpour abated The barren ground sparkled With the suns and moons and stars And galaxies and rainbows Which once saddened the sky And now adorned the ground The winds settled to a merry tune of serenity And the sky of my mind smiled at the beauty below.

Perfectly Imperfect
Soft skin Caressed by rough hands All my senses flurry White beauty of mine hidden behind dirt and grime a creamy tartar of decadence Undulating and writhing a cosmic display of euphoria as graceful as conception itself I find the good in the bad and the bad oh so good Two tiny hands wrapped in mine the egotistical tango as we dance our life away consumed by our self The tide of emotion washes away my pride and envy gone replaced with humility and love and skin so soft it's almost intangible.

'Tis said, when Schiller's death drew nigh, The wish possessed his mighty mind, To wander forth wherever lie The homes and haunts of human-kind. Then strayed the poet, in his dreams, By Rome and Egypt's ancient graves; Went up the New World's forest streams, Stood in the Hindoo's temple-caves; Walked with the Pawnee, fierce and stark, The sallow Tartar, midst his herds, The peering Chinese, and the dark False Malay uttering gentle words. How could he rest? even then he trod The threshold of the world unknown; Already, from the seat of God, A ray upon his garments shone;-- Shone and awoke the strong desire For love and knowledge reached not here, Till, freed by death, his soul of fire Sprang to a fairer, ampler sphere. Then--who shall tell how deep, how bright The abyss of glory opened round? How thought and feeling flowed like light, Through ranks of being without bound?

The Death Of Schiller
I'm not a poet; only a poetfreak. I know I won't be put in books Or go down as a great like Poe. But I don't care, because I don't need to impress I only care about making an impact to you. Yes, you! The one reading what I type. You're all that matters to me when I write. I don't refine my poems, I leave them raw Which means I'm not great at all Unless you like sushi or steak tartar

i am ******* dying to be something other than a ***** hiding from her own shadow, twisting herself up in senseless wants maybe if i tattoo my skin or gauge my earlobes or pierce my nose or wear band t-shirts no one's heard of or go to shows and head bang alone, then, yes, then, i will be unique, oh **** there's a tumblr for that, actually, there are a thousand tumblrs for that, moving on... how about i try wearing black and hiding from the light, pulling away until i only come out at night, speaking to no one but the notebook i carry everywhere with me, ah, **** that's been done too here, here, how about this, i'll enter the mainstream, get my degree, even work a job from seven to three, marry a **** bag with no sense of life, have some kids, and pretend i take joy in being a wife, and then, when i'm having his colleagues over for dinner, i'll lose it and **** them all with a butcher knife as i backflip over our ten thousand dollar dining room set they'll oooh and aaah, and somehow forget, that i'm ending their mediocrity, instead they'll think, what yoga studio did she join? her legs are so much more defined than mine and as they all lay bleeding out over their steak tartar, i will smile and smooth my perfect blonde hair, and wait to join the leagues of the unforgettable

When I look up into the sky I see miles and miles of open space I dream that I can live on the moon That I can fly on a shooting star When I look into the grass I see inches and inches of green I dream that I'm so small the blades of grass stand before me like towers After I fall asleep in my bed I dream. Of worlds where I'm a pink dinosaur Or of being a celebrity on planet Tartar Whatever they say Whatever they think They cant stop me from dreaming up my dreams

Bigger than Life
Some once called him a Grand Old Man, Others called him a slime, You couldn’t get a consensus that Was even, all the time, For some kow-towed to his money, while Others fell by his sword, His life was overall sunny, while His victims quailed at his word. He lorded it over his children, He ruled their kids with ease, A sullen look from beneath his brow Would bring them to their knees, His will was forever changing As solicitors came and went, One day he’d offer a mansion, And another day, a tent. When he finally died he was stony broke And they wondered where it went, He’d always been abstemious But the money had been spent. He left all their lives in ruins with Their expectations gone, A couple of ramshackle houses were The only things they won. There wasn’t the money to bury him So they left him where he sat, Up at the head of the table in His black, beribboned hat, He glared at them as he’d glared in life One hand on the table-top, Where he used to tap with his finger As if it would never stop. Tap-tap-tap on the table-top, Tap-tap-tap it went, His eyes bored into the back of your head As if to say - Repent! And people scurried, this way and that To divine what the tartar meant, The grim old man in his black top hat Who ruled to their detriment. They left him sat and they locked the door Didn’t go back for a year, Til the eldest, saying ‘let’s know for sure,’ Returned with a tinge of fear. ‘He might have stocks in his waistband there Or shares hid under his shirt, Or cash stuffed in his beribboned hat - He treated us all like dirt!’ He ventured into the dining room Where the grim old man still sat, His eyes a-glare in the year long gloom From under the brim of his hat. But as the eldest approached him there The finger began to tap, A steady rap with a note of doom That would curdle blood to sap. So Toby dived to the tinder box And he leapt up with the axe, His face as pale as a ghostly tale But determined to attack. He raised the axe and he let it fall Severed the finger there, It skittered across the table top As the old man fell from his chair. The stocks were stuffed in the old man’s hat The shares were stuffed in his sleeve, And so much cash in his waistband that They said, you wouldn’t believe. But still he’s locked in that grey old house For they found it wouldn’t stop, That severed finger that skittered there Still taps on the table-top! David Lewis Paget

being Polish was never **** it was never a clue for the sentencing of volleyball team effort... it was never **** whatever it was... it was never going to be an Irish bargain of gambling... it was just bad luck... something akin to Lithuanian, something worth forgetting... like Indians and the Bangladeshis... like Versailles and Belvederes palaces... it was worth forgetting... which exemplified the love of music in western Europe... and where music is lacking there the poetic expression... well thank you Pink Floyd, but let us forget Auden... we can all do enough with a sing-along... but when it comes to canvases of involvement to track the shoe-lace ties or the cravat tangle readied for a ballet... well, aren't you the one to tell us that it was just a calorie intake of veganism: mark that as a turnip postage... and a fried potato licked, while she gags on ageing for the added repertoire of scandal in sandals flicked to represent lapping tongues and butterfly flicking of what became flapped toe-curls of synchronisation; and the dipping, soda baking of a tartar sauerkraut.

Poles Cheap (soda baking of a tartar sauerkraut)
What I didn’t tell you that day is that I love you Because I was afraid you would change towards me Treat me differently and that I’d have to act differently When all I know how to do around you is be with you The way I am now and with the person you are But right now I want you So intensely that it affects my health My blood pressure is higher My mouth is drier and my breath is beginning to smell Like tartar and decay and maybe it’s because I feel I’m rotting inside Like something is dying and withering in me And I know it’s my strength How I feel about you The amount of me that I can devote To you to see you are happy The fuel for the words that deny your every self-defeating doubt Tell you you’re marvelous and perfect at least all right Please don’t go away Run away or treat me differently Just love me and say it every chance you get Love me more Add to it and build upon it Give me permission to be In love with you Like I already am Wanting you to be different Without going away Wanting you to be in love with me

Permission
They called you a dog Its teeth were yellow Rotting, cigarette and Stink breath, Gnarled skin around The mouth Laugh lines never existing Only frowns fault. Tar and wax and Gunk, how else can I say it- - Your mouth, a treasure. Riotous screaming And bleak moans Of let me go I did, I held loosely Canines with tartar Can you imagine The dentist? He cried when he picked at It rotted black now, Gone beyond just The absence of a Smile forelorn, Two surgeries and Gauze and chunks of gums, you Wired yourself shut. They yelled at you. In the office, in The school yard Laughing, pointing With a hand over your Mouth you didn't Bother to grin Anymore, they did you in. No operations could Save that precious, The innocence, you being A victim.

Stop Armenian terrorism! 3 (Tartar)
Hot dogs get chili Burgers get mustard Porterhouse gets steak sauce At least the last I heard. French fries don’t get vinegar That’s totally absurd French fries get ketchup At least the last I heard. Toilet paper rolls off the top Toilet seats need to be up. Tea is iced and in a glass Coffee should be in a cup. Tuna casserole is not for men, We need meat and potatoes. We only like marinara sauce Instead of raw sliced tomatoes. Salads are lettuce and dressing Especially of the cheesy kind. Eggplant is all plant and no egg And tastes like watermelon rind. Finger sandwiches are a waste Especially those with watercress. Cold borsht served in flat bowls Is not much more than a mess. Sushi is nothing else but Some overdressed hunks of bait. Pork bellies are pudgy bacon And deserve a better fate. Sweet breads are neither; Sweet nor are they bread. Steak tartar is just raw meat And should be cooked instead. Brunch is a truly silly word One needs make up the mind. Either have lunch or breakfast. I don’t mean to be unkind. We can be a confusing culture; Combining things so badly. Give me the basics, nothing more, And I will go imbibe quite gladly.

A robust, full bodied cup of coffee The resounding zeros and dated euphemisms The criminal and large and I sitting He has something to say I tell him to spit it out He says he knows I'm holding out on him and tells me to cough it up I adhere to his demand and pull out my rucksack and empty it out on the shellacked table Cream of tartar Cumin Cloves Bay leaves     Clovers Ginger Mustard seeds Anise A plethora of extracts and Madagascar vanilla bean I give in because this guy has a murderous track record nine miles long While I have a lifelong loosing streak I dare not try and petition him with defiant excuses and off the hook tones He needed these things to prepare a meal for his dying father He suffers from hangnails and trend followers As his son follows a dark path that is a far cry from a path that will lead to a career The criminal gathers the vials of herbs and spices with tears in his eyes and goes on his way I sit and finish my coffee unfazed and understanding To be continued...

we were making this by the campsite the night before the battle of grunwald ('groonvald'), we were united, the tartars joined us and brought the following recipe for the fish we caught on the river: preready mayonnaise, gherkins with a bit of gherkin brine, white vinegar and some capers... we omitted the chives and parsley because there were none, the day before we slaughtered the teutons. years later the same thing happened, although in suburban enclosure, and with perfectly running trains, and all seashores tamed with foot, and the aviation traffic, the new adventurers had to embark not with astronaut gear but with their egos, crafting shipwrecks and glaciers with their minds from the most apparent mundanities turned into sour spark tingles of colours turned into tastes on the oyster's nano tentacles in the saliva sea.
