The Theft of the Crown

Synopsis:   During a five-month Tour of the Provinces, the Crown of Mobius is stolen in the middle of the night.    Chapter 1—Reconnecting with Coconuts   Everyone in the Royal Castle in Mobotropolis had been hard at work, particularly with defense techniques, education and maintaining the symbiotic network that kept Mobodoon’s technology state of the art and functional.   It had been Sonic’s grand scheme to have a 5 month fall break and once the new year began, everything would resume as scheduled in their royal itinerary.   ‘I cannot wait to see the Provinces !  I have always wanted to see them for myself.’, Rouge stated, eagerness in her tone.   She had recently married her long-time boyfriend Caveat.   Caveat was a fruit bat that wasn’t one for words and preferred being insular, low-key and introverted.   That didn’t mean he didn’t like rocking out with Sonic’s band playing a double bass lickety-split but he really enjoyed his alone time.  ‘This is going to be the respite we

You've Been Corleoned

Up a creek with no paddle  Caught between a hard stone  Shouldve listened to reason  You’ve been Corleoned  It’s a bit too late  No time to negotiate Now you’ll never be left alone You’ve been Corleoned Just file it away as ‘experience’ Now you’ve been ‘pwned’ There’s no escape You’ve been Corleoned.  10-7-21

No Saint

My surname means ‘Many Saints’  I can tell you I’m a sinner Walking the streets, hands stained red  Consciousness tainted with pitiful screams The city burns once more Gangs pilfer and loot  Hard to know whom to trust  Is decency dead ?  I’ll never know I stare at the hallowed grave  Knowing I’ll join the Saints soon  For now, I’m King of Newark  Barone of the Family  I will always honor, love and obey ’Til my dyin’ day.  In memory of Dicky and Chrissy  10/2/21 

Under the Stars

Once more under the star’s canopy  Angelic bodies that continue to inspire me  I see Orion and brilliant Altair  Speaking with me, wisdom to share So many galaxies, so little time A vision of the past brightly shines I will never tire of your company  I welcome an astral trip to the starry sea  One day, I’ll shine with you But, I remain a strong flame For I know, wherever I go I eternally carry Your Name.  10/2/21
