Acclimatized Poems | Examples


Come Back

With blood on the line
He's sent down deep into an abyss
By his chosen true deeds
All trusted allies

With blood on the line
He's been defamed
Hell infringing upon his days
He melds, yeah, he's made

Unto him who listens amiss
Like a river wouldn't flow aback
He's been done hard about
He's back, yeah back and stronger

With blood on the line
Like a ragged-fine linen
He's battered and tattered
By his precious chosen corner

An industrious pain duly inflicted on him
Hard and wise he acclimatized
Like a wronged beast he'll surely devour
A one, and two at the mountain's shore

Life is weak still strengthened with evil
A number of human is but the devil
Grace is gracious to break him free
Thus his come back against the villain

Acclimatization

I have almost absolved myself from
causing all that emotional mayhem
that a youthful spirit engages upon
not having yet acclimatized itself at all.

Was it my fault if all those
hormone-ridden relationships,
all those peers of mine
that bought only a fake copy of me,
an unedited work in progress
now look back in anger?

Now of course I am acclimatized
to my personal environment,
acclimatized and stabilized
in that cramped, now and again
state of imperfection
most of us aim for.

Nevertheless:-
caveat emptor.

Acclimatization

Acclimatization is a serious matter.

Therefore I have almost absolved myself from
causing all that emotional mayhem
that a youthful spirit engages upon
not having yet acclimatized itself
to whom it was, or to what it would become.

Was it my fault that all those ‘soon to be’ lovers
bought a copy of me,
that was an unedited work in progress?

The maxim: “they know not what they do”
has to apply, or we would never arrive at that stage
of namely and to wit,
that stabilized imperfection most achieve.

Caveat emptor.

O Well

I have almost absolved myself 
from causing that emotional mayhem
that a youthful spirit engages upon
not having yet acclimatized itself
to whom it is, or what it would become. 

All those lovers and haters
bought into an early copy
an unedited work in progress.
It’s the pity of youth that we 
never give each other time for regret. 
Apologies may or may not arrive decades later
often they are just  told to the sky.

Forgiveness is given and accepted
between distant shadows of us.
We tidy up past regrets in an old room long vacated,
until eventually we arrive 
at that state of stabilized imperfection 
most of us hope to achieve.

Acclimatization

Acclimatization is a serious matter.
I mean one cannot keep bouncing around
a kaleidoscopic chameleon-like center 
can one?

Therefore I have almost absolved myself from 
causing all that emotional mayhem
that a youthful spirit engages upon
not having yet acclimatized itself
to whom I was, or to what I would become. 

Was it my fault that all those
‘soon to be’ lovers
bought a copy of me,
an unedited work in progress?

Most who waded in the ankle-deep shallows
of those earlier days were but rough drafts,
early editions of what they eventually turn into.

The maxim: “they know not what they do”
has to apply or we would never arrive at that stage
of namely and to wit,
that stabilized imperfection most achieve.

Though I do pity the girls 
who bought that knock-off copy of me, 
the women who were scammed
by a none-copyright version of myself, 
but to be fair,
they also were none-acclimatized 
and should have saw
the dire warning: caveat emptor.

Stopping In the Woods On a Snowy Evening

Impromptu night journey into snowy 
wood
Face laced with scarf; head covered 
by hood
Sturdy mare blanketed; each foot 
shod with stud
A swift nod, gentle tap instinctively 
understood
Gallant mare plows forward 
furrowing ice and mud
Chilled air quickens my pulse; 
thickens my blood

The howling wind around the 
swiveling sleigh doth whirl
Into onrushing faces stinging, icy 
pellets hurl
Along path's edges glistening trees 
their mast's twirl
O'er head stalking raven's 
patronizing wings unfurl
The chortling wind, raven screeches; 
my head hairs curl
Around the bend, loomed the 
cottage of stately earl

I gathered the reins the careening 
sleigh to abruptly turn
Acclimatized mare already my 
studied thoughts did discern
Onto the swept, manicured lane 
hopeful feet did churn
Beckoning lamp on distant doorstep 
did intently burn
Already alerted, spry earl awaited 
our intentions to learn
On arrival, our tired petition, lowly 
station did not spurn
