'impish macabre' timothy r gates, 8/01/2009
smiles, sneezes
wheezes
from breezes
your mere, grin,
that too
i chagrin
if i embarrassed much
(every so often, i feel
a blush
sufficient cause for
applause
pause
and
cause)
if bemused much
(this, too, i feel
a sting
ineffectual cause for
pause
or
applause)
if i didn't notice
or,
give notice
i'd not take note
of
sneezes, wheezes
smiles
a stroll
in a mind's walk.
Now what,
who
the hell
in heaven's eyesight
am i beholding
such an impish
macabre?
elightful.
