for PATTAYA TRADER 186 (C)

WORDSHAPES
I will square with you:
though there is no proof,
well-rounded-poems
have the ring of truth.

THE-BROOMWITCH-HOUR-
BY-SHE-RETURNS
A brush of lips against lips,
the girl's swept-up into his arms.
He's under the spell of this white-witch.
She sways her man with oldy-world-charms.

WINNER-SWIMMER
The sun sparkles on the water
like the eyes of Neptune's daughter.
Yes Neptune's daughter I call her
whose words are most surely winning
when in my eyes she says she's now swimming.

THE VERSE-DIVINITY
If there's a woman
behind a poet's success,
then I missed-out
more or less.
If there was one, I'd choose
she we poets call the Muse.

THE-WORD-POWER-POET-
DAMNERS?
He writes down many a word
in his own quiet way.
The strong and silent type,
yet with very much to say.

Yes he writes down many a word
with the courage of his convictions,
though there are those talk a lot
would impose on the poet restrictions.

TIME'S UP?
It is rumoured Charlie Manson
could stop clocks with his stare.
He stopped the ticking of hearts
we are all now well-aware,
in a sure cold, cruel, brutal-killing
that Father Time had a fatal hand in?
