Premium Member Life on the Moon

In the  center of the Moon
exists life, removed from sight,
until dawns its evolution.

Within Earth's organic evolution,
what exists on Earth as on the Moon?
Imagine the surreal sight!

From abstractive sight,
what ontogenetic evolution
is emerging on the Moon?

The Moon has, in Earth's sight, an alien evolution.

Abstractive

It's not figuratively thinking but abstractive!
Avoiding over abstract. 
The road is clear.
The eyes within their limits 
See the appearances of things
& their expressions, figures.
An eye is a tool for seeing .
Like an eye, the brain is a tool for the mind
Who takes you to the door of the hidden treasure house
Never
Enter
That's its/his limit. 
The turn is for the upper, super, heart
When you say I you meant!
No seeing nor thinking
Taste.
Feel.
Sense of taste abnormally  
The words could not explain
Yet an abnormal taster knew what it is.
So not to speak of what words cannot hold.

Tonight You and Me

Behold the sky a moon yonder with family tonight, 
You and me sitting afar, with stir heart tonight, 

Drifting air, warm breeze embrace and gone away, 
And who’d be my crony, confederate, chum tonight, 

You wasn’t fair creature of a hour, 
Can’t I explain and elucidate the truth tonight, 

Flower of Love and gabfest with you, 
Is a piece of pleasure and calmness tonight,   

If your shadow be in the smoke of cigarette, 
Let I ignite this poor companion tonight, 

Drowned in amativeness of your abstractive love, 
Will anyone narrate resplendent beauty of my lass tonight, 

But, your reflection now faded from cruel moon, 
Where did I go, whom I see tonight? 

Say, how I could be without you, 
You’re not here but Love is here tonight, 

And I Shahid sitting on the shore of hope, stucked in estuary, 
Might I be triumphed or die off tonight.

Jumble Sales

 Arts littered to granite threshold,
 Hungred fellow with trapezium limbs,
 Foursquare abstractive cupboard head,
 In a thought out state of presence,
 Designer fingers crawling over pots and bowls
 Of serpents swallowing man head first, into sack
 stomachs,
 Static snails speeding on a space of time,
 And like promiscuous Picasso stroking the buttocks
 Of Madame Desiree,
 Bending to rinse her negligee
 On the bank of Elysees.

Upside Down Where Nothing Falls

open minded patchwork of dreams
one minded irritated hole screams
gliding feather won the thunder race of kings
whirling nostalgia the howling star links 
raining abstractive tons of anima, it stings
pick up the phone and heart sings 

drown struggle, breathe revolt, mass drinks
puke pride, taste flawless imperfection, too loving sane 
...skied harmony, swimming sun

upside down where nothing falls
picnic in unbound space
