Herbert Nehrlich Poems

Norton, friend of Links,
did have a history
of favourite media links.
He searched, non stop
...

My mother told me
on a day when all
my necessary actions
were going well,
...

There is so much debating
on this well-travelled forum
about the poets' rating
and less about decorum.
...

To treat the people who are free
and make them better yet, indeed
a chemical lobotomy
is just the tool that we all need.
...

And may I be permitted to include
my happy wishes for this aging dude?
I've nothing but respect for him of course,
but struth I feel the same about a horse! ! ! !
...

It was a hole, size of a dime.
Had penetrated his left eye
a Southern California crime
they use their guns there, never shy.
...

Since I had just arrived
from foreign shores
where men are shy
and women tease,
...

The Moon with finely chiselled face
awoke to see his ancient foe
dress up with gold-embroidered lace
to execute her morning show.
...

'Father, bless me and forgive me, I have sinned.
I have doubted the great wisdom of our Lord.
I was in the backseat of my boyfriend's Volvo,
when the windows very suddenly steamed up.'
...

Come smile at me
come smile at me again.
And use the only smile you have,
the selfless and exquisite one.
...
