A Chain of Kimmy Ku's in double acrostic form form! :)

Pictured here is the stained-glass window from the Beatrice Webb House in Surrey, England, former headquarters of the Fabian Society. It was designed by George Bernard Shaw and depicts Sidney Webb and Shaw striking the Earth with hammers to "REMOULD IT NEARER TO THE HEART'S DESIRE," a line from Omar Khayyam. Note the wolf in sheep's clothing in the Fabian crest above the globe. The window is now on display at the London School of Economics (LSE), which was founded by Sydney and Beatrice Webb.



Dreams are but interludes that fancy makes
When monarch reason sleeps, this mimic wakes;
Compounds a medley of disjointed things
That neither were nor are not e'er can be
Sometimes forgotten things, long cast behind
Rush forward to the brain and come to mind.DRYDEN


Poem Artwork

L  ife under made dreams, Eyes separate phantasy
       ong thoughts ponder me. . .
A re my dreams just dreams?, Is Paradise a vision? 
        re phantasies wrong?
U ndogmatical, Now faults in fiction ride me
        nbridled I see . . .
G alloping white knights, Across black and white tile floors 
        allant with an Eire!
H olstein cows mooing, And big red barns with Dutch doors
        eard rooster’s crowing. . .


F  ar reaching myself, Woolgather realities
       amily haycocks
A
nd little Spring goats, I gazed into glistened eyes
        ll wet by laughter 
B aking homemade pies, I imagine me cooking!
       een phantasizing...?
  I keep my tails jean’d, Lash out in limousines, drunk
       mbibing in rum
A pt in drum beating, Dreamt up by tunes, backing runes
        rt painting rhythms
N aked in carrels, I’m corralled by conditions 
       aff off, baron kine!

Another quite captivating piece from your poetic pen, Kimmy.

And I think many are still trying to remould the earth today, and their heart's desire is to make their bank accounts even larger.

Do dreams massage and manipulate us or we them? Ultimately, all that moulding and shaping brings about subtle change, just by the warmth of the continual interaction of illusion and phantasy, perhaps... like clay in the potter's hands. You are SUCH an artist, Kimmy, and so erudite. You can style any form and subject matter into any which way you so please... and teach and inspire at the same time. Wonderful concepts here, all with your spiritual yet "homely" touch. What an integrated person you are! And richly talented. TY Kate xx

On a rug made of a white bear skin in front of blushing embers in the fireplace, one lies there and reads this poem as any man would on a cold winter inside a stone castle, perusing around the author's words of fantasies.
Very well done.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
