reading an eerie tale

rise
each pulse
and feel fear
described when I
illustrate some piece
near bedtime for it might
give kids the wrong idea
about fantasy and what’s real,
never knowing if stories might scare

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy

scared
daylights
out of kids
with your stories
of twelve old cronies
who terrorized children
with hooded get-ups to scare
the bottoms out of their jammies
till they hid under their beds and screamed

save voice - message me

scream
and hope
volume has
enough high notes
vibrating through a
open door thus giving
intruders plenty of noise,
causing them to run away from
everything they tried to steal from me

MI
comes third
in music scale
followed by FA
SOL LA TI DO RE
MI shows up once again
I'm sure you know what comes next
since they're displayed on 4th, 5th lines
and I think you know how to read, right?

right
or wrong,
I can’t make
all the Nonets
into acrostics
but I will keep trying
to exercise my small mind
in as many ways possible
until there is no thought process left

left
not much
doubt you will
keep on writing
not merely nonets
but many other forms
turning them to acrostics
even if they make little sense
like most of the ones that I have done

dictating eternally

done
is not
cited choice
to seek after;
acrostics bring fun
to this coned area
instead of just the old school
nonets so I will use this tool
getting from top to bottom my way

wondering years away

way
off the
need for a
discerning ear
ended my questions
regarding critique’s era
in correcting just a few
nuances of poem’s area,
given that there are so few today

day
or night
you’re welcome
to write something
which no one will see
except, perhaps for me
because I seem to be here
by myself and alone with thoughts
which may be of interest; or not!
