Art – KensView

Scrabbled

Beneath the cwm zenith where nymphs wheezily prance,
whizbang melodies from an old jukebox entrance.
Faqirs strum quickly on sweet mezquite-wood guitars,
highjacking reality, exciting quasars.
A Jezebel sylph winks, zombifying the night,
the zymurgy of enchantment, bathed in moonlight.
Below the Qi’s frolicking flybys, swift and free,
caziques and vizcachas equalize at tea,
as quetzals dose on outoxyphenbutazone,
jazzed by zippy zephyrs that sizzle to the bone.
And while muzjiks whisper, “Quixotry is preferred.
To maximize the magic, Xerox the absurd,”
xylophonists scarf flapjacks, yelling at bezique,
“Prizes in zuz and xu, not exempt from our pique.”
Chutzpah and qwerty thusly are here intertwined,
defuzing the mundane, leaving logic behind.
So, exorcize your qualms and brush the “phphts” away.
Squeeze out cynicism. It’s Oxazepam Day!

Wow, A Pup Deified!

As I pee, sir, I see Pisa
Dog doo? Good God!
Desserts, I stressed!
God saw I was dog.
God’s dog.
Dammit, I’m mad!
Step on no pets.
Go deliver a dare, vile dog!
Dogma in my hymn: I am God!
Dog’s God.
Was it a cat I saw?

Where Dreams Dance?

In a land where worthy tales are told,
Where emotions are painted bold,
Exists a realm of vibrant charm,
Where melodies dance, hearts grow warm.

From streets of Mumbai to mountain tops,
Frame by frame, emotive flow never stops.
It’s a silver screen with magical allure,
Where passions surge and epics endure.

Movement in synchrony, showing off skills,
The steps so intricate, they induce big thrills.
With energy, rhythm, and joyous sway–
The Masala scenes chase worries away.

Heroes with charisma, hearts so pure,
Lift all higher; their spirit and courage ensure.
Through trials and triumphs, they guide,
The lessons learned to forever abide.

Promoting unity, welcoming diversity,
It aims to embrace all with equality,
Give great pleasure to the young and the old,
Within a world where dreams can unfold.

Such is Bollywood’s majestical stage,
Where romance and adventure both engage.
A kaleidoscope of feeling ever so bright,
It ignites sparks that energize film night.

But while espousing harmony and parity,
Does Bollywood still treat all with equity?
Can it keep disarming discord new and old
To help understanding and peace take hold?

Whyforth ART Thou?

Art is more than just a canvas and paint,
It’s a reflection of the soul, free from restraint.

It speaks to the heart in a language of its own,
A way to express ourselves when words are unknown.

Through brushstrokes and melodies, we can convey,
Emotions and feelings that words cannot say.

Art is a universal language that bridges the divide,
Bringing together cultures and minds worldwide.

It inspires us to think, to dream, to create,
And encourages us to explore and celebrate.

Without it, our world would be bleak and grey,
For art brings color and sense to our everyday.

So let us appreciate and cherish its worth,
For art is the beauty that brings life to earth.

Dear Subject

Poets are always saying

something about someone and

if you are written about

and particularly not used

to being written about

you may think you

are being betrayed

because you are not in control

and you don’t know how

the poem will turn out

for you may see yourself

as you think you are

but might not actually be

while the bard may draw

a very different lesson

and this is of course

an inevitable fact of life

c’est comme ça!

like the commercial

not sorry

no apology
