~ AND THE POEM BEGINS ~

A mask, tiny holes
Breathing heavily
Dancing around my toes
Broad carbon steel
Safe behind my will
Equipment of revenge
Fencing the world with my eyes

I bow, with the morning dew,
 My mind a dual in...

Will You See Truth Beyond That Dark Stone Fence

Can you feel true heart in early dawn's light
soft grace and gentle winds in Spring's new flight.
Can soul feel Nature's benevolent course
from open mind, mankind's weakness divorce?

Hear morning doves as they sing out soft calls
let kindness escape...

I've constructed a picket fence around me to keep jackanapes out
Through pickets they can see me, but I never allow them to touch
private parts of me I keep concealed, and don't talk about so much
I keep whitewashing my fence, cleansing it from things left in...

Sitting on the Fence at Twilight

When the sun waved good-bye in the afternoon,
I’d say hello to the smiling Man in the Moon. 
Perching on our gray concrete fence,
I’d swing my brown legs to a happy cadence.
From my solid fortress, I could see
a daily circus of...

The fence on which my feelings pause
Forever will be lost for cause
For should it stop my love to flow
Would pain me more than I could know 

For fences keep out or keep in
To build one would be such a sin
And should one born to me...

There once was a cat who hadn't much sense.
He liked to sit, every night, on a neighborhood fence
And sing, at the top of his not so sweet voice,
A medley of cat songs of his personal choice.

The flush of spring has bought new life to romp in greening feed,
along the border with the forest where domestic flocks do breed.
Managed through the daylight by the fear of being seen,
the sentinels of death await for night when they are keen.

Though distant lights may...

After the down pour
Of a heavy rainfall
The wet fence dries off
Now the wet spot shows
A wet spot shape heart
Done by Mother nature...

Young Germans on the wrong side of a wall.
Imagine, if you can, their awful dread!
Before that great monstrosity can fall,
young Germans on the wrong side of a wall,
knowing the cost of freedom is not small,
climb up that wall, but soldiers shoot them dead.
Young Germans on...

I don’t want the white picket fence
I’ll take the one that’s weathered by time
Bent in a way that gives it character
Bordered by tall grass and wild thistle
You might rest your elbows on it after a long day
And smile at the sunflowers I planted
Because you know...

Beyond the Black Fence
By Sy Roth

The land lay fallow 
Beyond the black fence.
Growth once dressed in a white blanket of hoar in winter landscapes 
Lush in summer months
Deer speckled backdrop 
Munched all day behind a scrim of lush camouflage 
And black birds rested on the...

Oh! my garden potatos...
and busted tomatoes..
The bull jumped over the fence...

And where did he go?
I really don't know!
I haven't seen him since!

But if I see one sign....
of his behind...
he'll get more than a  piece of my mind!

If I catch him snoozin'...
he'll get a bruisin'....
right...

Where is my white picket fence?
Where is my "someday I'll have it all"?
What will it take for me to find it?
What is more comfortable though than 
the soft cushion of my mind?
When I'm happy with what I've got...
When I'm all I need, no more, no...

The devil’s dry fields
dirt farm, not much yields
damn sun
one forlorn tree shields
Texas battlefields
the one
recline that appeals
low water reveals
not done

no reprieve day’s sun
no wind, land barren
poor crop
windmill slow to run
water still and dun
well drop
worn clothes overdone
unbleached and homespun
no fop

dry, dingy sweatshop
broken fence post prop
damn sun
blind heat...

Deep violet Hibiscus with velvety petals, 
         On the quaint fence, sprawl the zestful creepers.
Mesmerizing tall branches of serene evergreen, 
         With tricksy Swallowtails, Redbreast Robin merrily whistling.




For Rithimus...
