The Horse's Mouth

You've learned something,
That had not been part of gossip.
You feel betrayed by this...
And confront reliable sources.
They are dumbfounded too.
They believed they knew more,
Than what they actually knew.
And they too feel betrayed,
By this.

They've all learned something,
That had not been part of gossip.
And all felt betrayed by this...
With no one left to confront.
And dumbfounded too.
How could this business done,
Skip by whispers and listening ears?
Not so reliable are those sources.

And those who had spread their lies with glee,

Selling Themselves Out

After selling themselves out,
They remain dumbfounded.

No one has asked for a raincheck.

No inquisitive questions posed.

And no one seems to be concerned,
About availability.

The teacher that I was for decades, and that I still am in a certain way, wondered what was meant by the word education. I was truly dumbfounded at the very thought of dealing with such an essential and extensive subject.

Dumbfounded

Using the same routines,
To polish up on achieving
The same results.
Although they profess to be professionals...
Many are left heartbroken!
Astounded and dumbfounded,
As to why their activities
Has yet to revive,
The minstrel era!
Claiming this oversight...
Is not humorous to them at all!
Since they did recall a time of full employment!

Bottoms Up!

Flat, round...
Narrow or wide!
That's the only way
Everyone is getting it,
These days.
Happy Hour or not!
And if it is...
It will still be,
For those getting it...
To receive what's coming,
With or without accompanying pain.
Numb or dumbfounded!
From the top to the knees to drop.

'Don't act like you can't hear!
You there...
In the rear!
Bottoms up! '

The Magic Of The Moment

She walks down a street
in Central London
on the sunny side of course
and is dumbfounded by the fact

that it is raining on the other side of the street.
It falls into her mind as if it were a dream
but a dream that's real.

She crosses over and holds out her hand.
Raindrops collect on her palm.
She crosses over again and watches them evaporate
on her outstretched hand.

In The East

Like the wild organs of the winter storm
Is the people gloomy rage,
The purple billow of battle
Of stars leaf-stripped.
With broken brows, silvery arms
The night beckons to dying soldiers.
In the autumnal ash-tree’s shade
The ghosts of the killed are sighing.

Thorny wilderness surrounds the town.
From steps that bleeds the moon
Drives off dumbfounded women.
Wild wolves have burst through the gate.
