I KNOW NOTHING

SO WHAT COMES AFTER WISDOM
FOOLISH MAN?
SNOW IS ON THE GROUND.
HE STOOD STILL....
A WOMAN WAITED
IN THE THEATRICAL ROUND.
YES THE WOMAN MADE
THE BEST SOUND!

THE WHITENESS
TURNS MAN UPSIDEDOWN
PERFECTLY IN THE NIGHT
AS SHRILLNESS EMITS
OH COMPLEX PAIN
WHY DID YOU FALSELY BEGIN
AND LEAVE A BEGGAR BEGGING
FROM HIS CARPET
ROLLED UP FROM THE GROUND

DID THE EARTH BEGIN IN HELL?
AND GROW OUT OF IT
CREATING TINY BLUEBELLS
NEVERENDING
THUS ENDETH HELL.
US MAD A WHILE
WITHOUT GUILE
SMILE BACK CHRISTMAST… Continue

THE OWL

THE OWL HAS DEEP MYSTERY
IN THE NIGHT HE CALLS
TO ME?
NOW THERE'S ONE
RIGHT NEXT TO ME!
THE OIL OF THE MOON
SEEMS TO LUBRICATE
HIS NECK.
AND HEAD IS LUMINOUS
WITH EYES.
HIS FEET
HIS EARS
TAWNY WHITE.
HE CALLS TO ME IN THE NIGHT.
SEEMS TO BE BRIGHT.
EATS MICE AND OTHER BITES.
IN THE WOODS
FOR YEARS.

MIXTURE POEMS

DREADFUL POETICS 12.50 AM 25.06.09


OH DREADFUL POETICS OF THE NIGHT
AND SCREECHING BIRDS
THAT HAUNT MY LIFE
FOR I SHALL PUT UP BATTELCRIES
OF LOVE TO THE FURTHEST DISTANCE!
AND THEN LAMENT IN SERENITY OF
MADNESS.WATCHING A BIRD TO FALL,
THE LESSER GREATNESS OF ALL.
WILL POINTS AT ANOTHER SO TALL.
AND I THINKING LESS A LOT
SHALL TOUCH A CAMELS EYE(IT SAYS)
AND WAVE HAROLD GOODBYE,INSTEAD.
AREN'T WE ALL A PART OF THE WHOLE,
HENCE I LEARNED THEY COLLECT FAKE PRISES
AND GATHER TO GIVE WORDS OF LOU… Continue

live poem HERE 20 LINES

HERE I AM WRITING
SOMEWHAT FOOLISHLY
LOOKING AT THE SUN
SHINING THROUGH THE LEAVES
YOU'RE WONDERING WHY
I WENT TO SLEEP
KNOWINGLY THAT I SHOULD WAKE
AND YET NOT KNOWING
IN WHAT STATE
SO I'VE ALREADY WRITTEN
BUT I DECIDED NOT TO BORE
HOPEFULLY TO FIND
AN INGENUINE SCORE
THE RULE WAS MADE TO BE SIX MORE
OF THIS POETRY
I GAVE NO SIGN
SO AS NOT TO
CONFUSE THE TIME
I'LL PUT ANOTHER VERSE
UPON ANOTHER PAGE UNANON!

NEW POEM written 12.30pm 25/07/2009

AND NOW I SLEEP 25.07.2009 12.30 PM


AND NOW I SLEEP TO FIND A BOOK
IN DREAMS HIDDEN LIBRARY.
I WILL TELL YOU OF THE TIMES
WHEN I COUNTED MY RHYMES
AND FOUND BUT DRYNESS
JABBERING WITH TINY PRICKS,
LIKE THE BITTER TASTE
FROM THE SOUR GRAPES
I'D LICKED.
I DOUBT THAT IT
WERE SOUR MILK, OF WHICH
I SHOULDN'T TALK AT NIGHT.

THAT MAYBE ,I SAY ,COULD HEAL
THE BLIND
FROM STEALING MINE
EYES...
AS PART OF MY LIFE
SAYS I'M LIKE A WANDERING
WORDSMITH.
GOD BLESS YOU
LUCKY PEOPLE WHO RECEIVE
WORDS LIKE THIS… Continue

MORGAN'S OWN BLOGSPOT

Come on Over

I'm over at a few other blogs today. If you get a chance, come on over to see the Christmas Decorations at http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.com/

At http://bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/  the topic is Spoiled Milk. Ever sit down to read a good book and been disappointed?

If you haven't yet, check out the post below about the Paper War.

Thanks,
Morgan Mandel

Paper War

I've been waging a war on paper the last few days. So far, paper is winning. The more I clean up, the more of it I find. The problem is, for much of it, I feel an obligation to do a thorough examination and decide whether or not it's worth keeping.

The mailperson is my enemy. He, sometimes she, keeps leaving more paper in my mail box. I'm not talking about my Christmas cards, which I cherish, but all the other stuff dropped off for me to sort out. At times it's torture to come home and see the new pile the DH has set on the kitchen table.

I've discovered tons of magazines over a year old. They were trying to hide in a magazine holder on the side of the couch, but not doing a good job of it, since they were spilling over. Of course, I decided to check the headings on the covers to see if some of the information inside might prove valuable. Wouldn't you know it, I was right. Many articles seemed to good to give up.

I've already mentioned here before about how I also have a compulsion to print out emails that seem important to me. The result is I have lots of important pieces of paper. When there's an abundance, which is the most important? And, where's the one I really need? It is a quandary.

What about you? Is paper your enemy? Are you also waging a war against it? Who is winning?

Library Displays - See Make Mine Mystery Monday

Have you tried a library display? If you want to see mine, come on over to Make Mine Mystery on Monday.

Thanks,
Morgan

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.

Fiery Roses didn’t start as a sequel. Having brought A Band of Roses to a happily-ever-after conclusion, I envisioned my second book as something different, a story based on the horrors of raging, out of control flames. When I was eight, such an inf…
