Excerpt
Seething Cornucopia Of Avarice
Pendulous avarice spurted at a clopping pace
And condescended me to a simpering lark
Strutting vaingloriously it wolves down the ace
And I amble about with denudate skull mark
Deranged of impeccable grace
I sheltered vulturously in the miraculous ark
Of God that undauntedly hornish my rapacious race
Cajoled oration from the pulpit set off the spark
Promises of voracious want in place
Everyone is captured wallowing in mire in the dark
In precocious attempt to be the mace
Jam-packed even on the aisle it spills to the park
Tumultuous stampede to inherit the earth smudge a smirk on the face
Ravenous vulturous want besmirch a mark
Dint of toil of the dexterous it seek to replace
As wondrous miracles peel its bark.
In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
Welcome!
The poems in this beautifully bound book are a result of over twenty years of observations. Observations of the world around us and on the telecommunications network. All of the hate, love, heroism, disasters, and those who help.
