Sis--Quick Overview Pt1(kc)
My sister, Karen Lou (nee Coleman) Forde, was born April, 21st, 1942, in Bend, Oregon. Why Oregon? I do not know. I never knew my parents, once they left Kansas, ever lived anywhere, but California. Obviously, my knowledge—or lack thereof—was unimportant...

Mom--Quick Overview Pt1(kc)
As my mother died when I was but five, it is difficult to recall personal memories of her. Most of “my memories” are borrowed from stories told to me by me grandmother and grandfather. Those were few and far between, as neither was supportive of my mom...

Skidding(kc)
Skidding through the streets of insanity that glisten from the tears of regret; I wait at the intersection, with the alleyway of self-deception, spinning off in circles of discontent. Eyes tight with the cement of confusion, blindly seeking self-disillussionment;...

Entropy--The Great Equalizer(kc)
The heart and mind are forever a mystery to me. As soon as I think I have a handle on either one, I find I really do not have a clue. I get some hair-brained idea and think: hey! Now I understand that feeling, that thought; a day, a week, a year later,...

We Are Creation (kc)
Look with eyes anew and see a dance most wondrous Sublime entwining Mystical swaying A dance of beauty and of life ever joyous The safflowers dance with the bees As do the clouds when led by the wind Squirrels scamper through rustling trees While below...

The Widow (kc)
The widow hangs there in her solitude Waiting patiently Seemingly unaware she nonchalantly tests each fiber of her web Sensitive to the vibration of the smallest prey Her hourglass timepiece static in a world of our time Time is nothing to her as she...

Teardrop (kc)
A milky teardrop of dew rolling down a velvet petal, joyous in its brief moment-- sharing life with the rose. It doesn’t think of death— only of life—recycling, sharing another moment of ecstasy elsewhere. Perhaps in its next life it will kiss a tulip,...

Rain take1(kc)
Rain gently washing the sky giving us a crisp, clean tomorrow. A fragrance of life as each raindrop’s bouquet blossoms. Rain mistily rounding the corners softly burnishing the earth around us forming rippling reflective mirrors. Mirrors that reflect the...

For Keri(kc)
Mother’s bond with the child cannot truly be fathomed by the father. We know it is there. We admire it and sometimes, when we’re young, resent it, but we recognize it. When my first-born came into the world, I was yet a pup, myself. Her mother and I were...

Overview

  • : poetry-doggeral-et-al's name
  • : A mix of poetry, doggeral (intentionally mispelled (sic) as it IS doggerel), stories, familial stuff, and disjointed thoughts, posted to hopefully elicit dailogue(s), arguments, and/or a reader's ideas, poetry, etc. It is not polished, not especially literate, certainly not universal--sorry, it is just me.
