You Ask David and Sampson

You Ask David and Sampson

A Poem by Laura Lynn

A New Day

TO ABHOR
L
amplight is waiting for evening.
E
very now and then I jog.
T
ypesetters have to be up early,
A
ssistants learning their trade.
E
xactitude makes for even trades.
V
ets teach the doctors a new way.

ABHORRENT
M
ute mimes wearing face paint,
E
venhanded merchants weaving
T
wists of fur skin coats and lemon.
O
perable rinds for bars and Jean.
A
ccumulation of carbohydrates,
V
iewfinders for distraction then.

TO ABIDE
L
aggard from sickness or caffeine
E
thos, a symptom of withdrawal;
H
it me myself and I before Punch
I
mprecates Judy or vice versa.
S
ailors dream of mermaids and
H
onor, lemons for fish (&cake.)
A
ccusatory children remember.
E
uthanasia why not let the body-
R
ib wounded lie prone/ slowly die
 
L
acerate my name with disease
A
stir, a mess, meandering for
G
loss and matte, a finish unlidded
U
ncovered pottery before glazing;
R
ickets harming young bones. Sun

ABILITY.
Y
ou can go to the gym now, self,
E
very so often, catch up on oxygen
“C
rux?, I say, “What R U today?”
H
enchman of unsolved riddles,
O
pen-and-shut cases of departure.
L
ackadaisical worries, this is where
every
other day we part and can’t
T
witter relate, dissimilar feathers.

ABJECTedly

Stylish, therefore, I walk alone.
H
erons have a sound of their own.
A
bject shuffle of discs in the radio
F
uzz of unhappy mixes, not batter,
A
bject shuffle of bizarre flailing,
L
yricism of fealty experimentation.

ABJECTION
H
erculean in nature, the slow inch,
A
stounding or appalling for new
S
ubjective ideas, something made.
H
eresy, the cheese toast, berries,
P
aired menus for weekend posies,
A
sunder the prettily dressed, now
L
unge forward with the left foot,
A
sking little misses why in return

TO ABJURE
L
yrical furniture designed in quiet,
E
pileptic study. Caesar’s not only a
H
oodwinked magnate of history,
I
mpressive in his fame: Augustus.
T
umid bulbs of an autumn earth,
N
abisco has many crackers for us.
A
didas stripes make the gym jazzy,
E
nticement a thing of Nylon and
R
ifts of elastic: Fruit exchanged for
 
M
umford & Sons or free events.
I
mprints sold for a penny just

ABLAZE
B
read with the cornflakes, he’s
O
utfield, a player with politicians,
E
ntourage of quick verbiage and
R
oughneck bosses with less status.

ABLE
Y
ou ask David and Sampson, look
A
skance again at the biblical page,
C
landestine in sands of Latter Day
H
arems.  Shut out to an extent,
O
verpopulated columns are many.
L
ungs breath in and out, Namaste.

If you speak like you write. You would be a entertaining friend. The poem danced on many subjects leading to the very good ending. Life is trickery. Right or wrong? We will know the ending. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
