'Grandeur Parody in Two Parts' timothy r gates, 3/11/2008

'grandeur parody, as with medicine' timothy r gates, 3/11/2008

grandeur parody
psychologist in peripheral plight
psychiatry looks the other way, with pills
md's and other doctors do the same, only with different pills
chiropractic adjustments,
massotherapy,
-add to this whatever the hell or heaven you want-
'We'll fix you; the others are quacks!'
trust only those that acknowledge, openly
'I only practice medicine.'
and, those that try to keep their heads
out of their own orifice of the darkest domain.
No grandeur
no parody
listen, listen, listen
then hear.
damn, now if I can only remember to do the same.

'Grandeur Parody, as with Fairies in flight' timothy r gates, 3/11/2008

grandeur parody
a bit of fun, orneriness, mixed with
pheromonal phenomenon
Fairies never tire of the flight,
then find a sight to be part of its plight,
singing, dancing, yes always,
the damn lovelies make amorous take a seat;
I have prayed at their altars,
worshiped their surreality,
then fell prey to their prayers,
thinking that I too am a Fairy,
like the Queen himself, FM,
he would've given into their feminine aromas,
probably saying, after the fact,
'What the fuck?'
but still, as with all who fall to Fairies,
he'd smile,
as he recalled their giggles,
Queen or not of the Garden's prance
I too, as with most, loved to be a Fairy,
free to be,
that's all.
Let's dance.
