Abeam Poems

Elongated dazzling radiance cast abeam
sensational blinding brilliance
thru eyelids cast agleam
buoyed upon soundcloud airstream
entire corporeal complex edifice

rocked upon gently
shimmering weightless as moon beam
metaphorically floats yours truly
autonomic kickstarting process
since... flagellation enabled conception
circulating, distributing, enervating...

dna chromosomal genetic
data packets craft
lifeforce fueled bloodstream
aforementioned haploid gamete

If you would but listen closely
You could hear her whisper his name.
This was their beach not long ago,
But it could never be the same.

It was just on that horizon -
The same point that she can still see.
He was so close...Read More

We were pushing our luck
Thinking we could make Adelaide
The wind was hard abeam
Making a full hellish scream
New course need be struck
Fast decision must be made
For my...Read More

The wind beneath my wings was a fart
And excuse me is all I could say;
Flying here where worlds apart
As the good folk looked on in dismay.

For they had expected much more,
Loftier goals had been set for me;
But in the end...Read More

Oh the air is not so sweet today, 
Nor, I fear, will it be tomorrow, 
For disgruntled love has left the fray
Of tortured wills that brought both sorrow.

(Though some still may lie sweet on the...Read More

I was reading Dragon a book, like to children, you should always do.

Looking aloft
Envisioned dream
Dawn at Sea
Tides crash abeam

Seas mystery
Attempts to bend
Ready bow
Sails to mend

Backstay about
Apparent wind
A close reach
Clew torn within

Navigated course
Needed cleat
No buoy insight
Captain feeling beat

One sits astern
Another alee
Corrupted chain plate
Desires to flee

Thoughts come about
Center of effort tried
Eye of the wind
Heel...Read More
