twitter poems
02 Nov 2009

Today’s poem is about a performer, I was imagining a Juggler who was maybe juggling vials of toxic mercury or some other chemical only to have a mishap. It was inspired by the 10 random words (in blue) provided by the following twitter followers:
@WorkingLori (austere), @mcaliban (enhance), @mikki_fit (ardent), @writingnag (gaudy), @JenaIsle (chelation), @Piratelover22 (Faith), @Zorlone (error), @purple_froggy (hospital), @rockalong (zenith), @wwwPoet (ambidextrous)

In Recovery

It was only faith guiding me now
ardent fear and dread present
a gaudy hospital bed my own

An error in judgment perhaps?
a performer who reached my zenith
just trying to enhance my show

Austere ambidextrous trick gone wrong
chelation my only reward
lying here in recovery

Surreptitious pandemonium

reminiscing about truth and judgment
a scorpion come to sting us all
as we watch the fatal eclipse

Trick or Treat

A happy goblin with a sausage nose
haunted pirates putting on clever shows

Compilation of costumed kids lurking about
looting candy and money on a neighborhood route

A scientist who might study nephelometry
an acumen trickster stops, giggling with glee

A ghost who is no illusion this night
spinning and whirling out in plain sight

A superhero whose eye rays can split deuterium
or a Hulk who can punch through solid titanium

A girl collects another handful of bubble gum
Holiday euphoria and both kids and adults succumb

Every last fragment of candy scoured at last
another Halloween night has finally passed

Walked Away

Frozen as if in a drugged entanglement
an enchanting beauty wearing a kimono
rare and exotic creature just standing there
your regard transfixed staring hopelessly
as if she were from a Galapagos island

Blushing, feeling like an authentic scoundrel
delicious kissing and husky voices at night
an intrinsic liaison formed by thoughts
amorphous carnival happiness welling inside
heart filling with impossible expectations

Internal scam brewing, decisions unresolved
frantically you start to realize too late
she leaves almost as quickly as she arrived
hastily walking through the courtyard quadrangle
as you are left with nothing but incumbent regret

a superfluous genetic experiment
hidden in a mahogany receptacle
solution as sweet as fructose
consequential actions contemplated
future shatters in a cataclysmic prism
if you should be discovered cheating
a daisy planted on your educational grave
yet the exams answers are within reach
results of meiosis locked in a petri dish
another typhoon failure cannot be afforded
