My world once was a landscape of hope.

anxious, hot,and needful cherry pie lips

Candy cane tongues

The promise of the touch of holding warm hands
Sugar Plum Fairy dances  
Needful, but fleeting,, caresses at the county fair,
irrepressible  rumblings
behind the green shack.


Volcanic feuds erupted,
to sort out sexual property rights. 
unquenchable wildfires fanning everywhere
charring to ashes, the sensual landscape. 
smoldering,summer body heat
lit bonfires on every street corner. 

The love lines on our faces 
bearing the scars of blood sport

 Ancient victorious
Latin warriors with  twinkles
in our eyes.....

tree  sap
tapped from our tree's of life.
With never even a notion of running dry....
love drew rippling lines in the sand
lines we boldly dared to cross.
Older now 
My fruit has ripened to late Autumn
bruised and falling off the tree
But, the Sun again rises
I try running 
 victory laps for the glory of the emporor ..
Guards  patrolling every citadel 
during the annual Crumb Cake Festival, 
A joyous gathering it will be. One of rebirth,
and renewal.
with  the traditional,,passing out
to all eligible participants fresh crumbs
to the new crop of breeders
five dollars to participate.
Three dollars for spectators
peeking through blood  stained curtains.,
Translators on site, for children under 12.
To witness this year's contestants scurry
to be tossed cake crumbs onto  bark dust,
disbursed by honor guard
through ceremonial barbed wire fence
 
the Patron Saint  of Bark Dust Slivers,
will preside 
and elders of the Holy ill begotten. .,,
will be officiating.
No one is forgotten
on this day of remembrance.
Let's bow our heads
and thank our sponsors
 while they
victoriously blast  mind numbing business pornography
over the loud speakers
testing the limits of our endurance
traumatizing the ears of our pets
and startling small children.
Let us stand in reverence
and salute  
the God of all creation
And pray to ward off 
The Grand Duke and Duchess Of Decay
and disorder.
Hooray
and a thunderous three cheers 
 for  the crumb cake heroes
of yester-year.
