idiom

Idiom
11-29-15

Nothing frightening about dogs, pigs and sheep
It's surreal and it's deep
Another idiom idiomatic
Of peculiar language the argot speaks
And when you lose control
You sow another harvest
The land mourns for the grain is ruined
At five on the dot so begins my centerpiece
Whose meaning is not predictable
From the usual grammatical rules of old and new schools
Conforming to the usual manner of expression
In hopes that today I will conquer this depression
The idiom raves on....




Prosody
11-30-15

More definitions later
As pertaining to the now
A wind without a known cause
I'm up for the count
For love and her higher laws
Our period in classical prosody
A group of two or more cola science and study of poetic meters
And verification our patterns of utterance
Broken by trained personel
Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth
Lift up your eyes toward the north
So I did and behold
And behold the image of jealousy
Ambiguous....





Ictus
11-30-15

Fig stain on your fat chin
Although you're hard to find
Step out for another and go and free your mind
Our ictus rhythmical of metrical eustress
Don't fear the other meanings
Don't believe the pipe
Another semicolon says it all
Our designer of the Parthenon
Radiating cold shards of broken glass
As the division of the sentence
The seed shrivels under the clods
Of many lords and many gods...
