The Fate of Coral

The Fate of Coral

A Poem by Laura Lynn

To be about to do something

Lariats of cowboys or girls, dear
A
nnie Oakley who believed in fire;
 
A
ttenuated, reduced force, what
M
omentum, we can observe our
O
utpouring of great love for tasks.
D
rown yourself in this motion.
 
L
aissez-faire economy, practiced,
A
ccept the now and what I can do.
 
A
ttainment of each owner or
S
ervant.  I am a servant; let me be.
O
utstanding writing, I promise to
T
ake this book, read, print quotes.

M
oustaches of master-mind men.
A
cross the city they traveled in
S
treamlined vehicles, and acted.
H
oning this improvisational game;
E
lfin fairies came with the house.
H
oneycomb formed on the house.
U
nlikelihood of my successful life.

To bring about

Laughing at spellings, tattoos were
I
mprovised, sometimes unwanted.
G
rowling service dog given
R
igorous training.  The dangers
O
f how time is spent, that people
M
ake a joke of others surprised by

FATE or
G
aul.  I should have been more
O
bservant.  I could have made
R
eal friends, and been like a fish
A
ccepting its tank.  The tyke grew.
L
emons have gone out of season.

FATED
S
usan was his teacher last year.
H
eaven sent coupons she cuts
E
ven though the prices are still
G
ross, and a new way of teaching
O
thers is needed.  These brilliant
R
enters watch Judge Judy, for
A
long time, every day.  I’ve just
L
earned that the team wished
O
utrageous ills upon other teams.
 
N
obility cannot accept win as loss;
E
ven when my breath is not bad
C
onfederations market floss.
H
ere in the corn fields, farmers
R
etread what is there after the
A
utumn harvest.  Thanksgiving.
T
orches for crème brû·lée,
S
teamed milk for lattes.

FATEFUL
G
uava-flavored coconut water,
O
utstretched arms in a yoga pose.
R
eaching for the ceiling.  I can’t
A
ppease appeals, when objective
L
itigants ask for more time to be
I
mprudent is just not slow enough.

FATHER AV ABA

TO FATHER
L
ike sitting in a chair too long,
E
lbows feel cramped, muscles,
H
ave a life too, being taught.
O
ften I look at pictures of my
L
ovely son; he is always at school.
I
mprudence is not a lack of love.
D
ogs dwell in their cages: prisons..

Nobility cannot accept win as loss;
"Even when my breath is not bad
Confederations market floss.
Here in the corn fields, farmers
Retread what is there after the
Autumn harvest. Thanksgiving.
Torches for crème brû·lée,
Steamed milk for lattes. "
Many good places and vision create by your words. I like how you make people and places come alive in your words. A strong ending to the excellent poetry.
