Life and Death, they be
in the power of the Tongue
The unfortunate hung
others' praises sung
Best to skirt culpability
by cultivating agreeability ~
If you have nothing nice to say
do not say anything at all

“ULTERIORITY”
“Ulterior” motives and hidden meanings
Poets pen pieces-- revealing feelings
Sometimes hidden—predominantly exposed
Often the two, inevitably—juxtaposed
Robert Frost first coined this phrase
“Uteriority”—ambiguity, repeatedly betrays
Our existence completed for your amusement
Anonymity disguising inferiority-- improvement
Portraying sincerity as we donate our loyalty
Exteriority, agreeability, absurdity – our flamboyancy
Written voices sprinkled with passion and emotion
We formulate infinity with dedication and devotion

agreeability, on writing and words,
Form: Rhyme
I can feel it.
Flowing through me, twisting, taking root.
In the mirror, my eyes blaze green fire.
If you snapped one of my arms, it would smell like dew, new
Like fresh green twig.
I am surprised that passerbys don’t notice.
My hair sets the air afire as I walk down the street:
Not even tears of rain dampen the burning strands.
They say you can’t mix fire and water,
But I whip both into a glowing froth and emerge reborn.
You wouldn’t recognize me now.
I am pure spirit, stripped earth air sea and fire.
True, daily I smooth on calm agreeability, pleasant smiles.
But do not be fooled. Look closer, the phoenix rises in my eyes.
Nothing can touch me.
Can you feel it?
I doubt it. You who tried to trim me back with pointed words
And thought you’d won.
Well it’s spring now, the spring of my soul.
And I am laughing, bursting into bloom.
But I am more dangerous than any flower.
I am raw soil, sharp breeze, foamy wave, searing flame.
All the elements are alive in me.
Bubbled up from the womb of the earth,
I am uncooked power, newly-picked strength.
I am Woman
Goddess
Gaia.

possess a disposition of agreeability
have a position of hospitality
take a stance on being pleasing
with an outlook of sound reasoning
a viewpoint of compassion
an aspect of courtesy
a posture of kindness
and stand on congeniality
to have an attitude of gratitude
to always be kind
to love your fellow man
to always have God on your mind
