Annuls Poems

Premium MemberLooking For A Brain

Having a CT Scan in a couple of days
Most likely looking for a brain
Hope they find something that resembles such
Not finding one might be a strain

Might think the Scanner is no longer working
Nothing's showing up on the screen
Came up with an idea for having some fun
Pulled the plug and heard someone scream

“Look at this, this man's missing a brain”
Never in the annuls of medicine
Have they come across this rare phenomenon
His head's filled with a stuff like gelatin

Literally ten doctors were quickly summoned
All looked astonished and took notes
Chuckled to myself at the fuss I'd created
TV stations were looking for quotes!

Finally had to tell them of my fun little gig
But most didn't find it too funny
Told me, “Lie down and no more shenanigans
Or the nurse will call your mummy!

Premium MemberUnderstanding

Consciousness discernment
Annuls the passage of time
Dissolving and coagulating
Matters that truly matter
One second may suffice
Within its sphere
There is no such thing
As time wasted

Premium MemberThe Library

Among the systematic layout
Atop mirrored polished floors
That reflects the study of light,
Sharply angled shelves shadow symmetry
Like waves of open walls.

Spangled with books from scholars
Writers and dreamers
Labeled and categorized
Stacked upon the aisles of dialogue
Lying like little coffins numbered end to end.

A graveyard of words
Waiting to be opened by those who want to know,
These literary legacies of dormant poltergeists
Where the annuls of what must be remembered
Commemorate the living of yesterday

As eyes gaze upon each corpse
Engaging the ‘ghosts of words’
Reaching each heart, each soul
Captured in this moment of disclosure
Where miles of expression bring truths to life

Premium MemberTentativeness

Times get spent in eternal search,
Betwixt life and death life perch;
Holding here; holding there,
Hanging like monkey; not fully aware;
Temptations of growing higher creep in,
Like other unfulfilled desires within;
Illusions-filled dreams; nasty nightmares,
Midst these, sleep stands and stares;
Kith and kin assure: we're here, 
Who truly cares? - is to none clearly sure;
Having peripherally pleased and within cursed,
Friends and relatives go around as nothing happened;
Momentary joys, like, butter over toasts, glitter,
Only to melt and make their presence blur;
Butterflies and dragonflies; moths and beetles,
Get pecked by instantly appearing eagles;
Confusions and chaos in annuls of graves end,
Eagerness of living, like untimely moon, seems crescent;
Quest, in forms of queries, persist,
At one stage, as act of death, everything does exit...

Premium MemberMessage Simple

Message simple; love is Gods miracle 
Innate effulgence of pristine presence
Continual is its subtle signal
Innocence cognises voice of conscience 

Tranquil blissful calm, our souls quintessence 
Heart our abode, where we remain joyful
Wherein we bask in self-luminescence 
Message simple; love is Gods miracle 

Current ethereal, caress playful 
Endless rapture in stillness and silence 
All nodes dance to bliss throb amiable
Innate effulgence of pristine presence

Lower mind urges, crave our indulgence 
Presence careful, feral options annuls 
Choosing to dance to the divine cadence
Continual is its subtle signal

Negating narrowness inimical 
We breeze with ease though life in nonchalance 
Stagnation the peril, our debacle
Innocence cognises voice of conscience 

Our mind aligned with love in permanence 
Enables bliss within, ineffable 
On consigning ego to decadence
Pores tingle in joy currents toroidal
Message simple

Sole Expedition of My Soul Exposition

SOLE EXPEDITION OF MY SOUL EXPOSITION  

Your sole expedition
of my soul exposition:
Day and night falls, 
My thought calls, 
Flushed faced as staring walls,
Vizarded like blinking dolls, 
Frightened fixed eyeballs, 
And my frameless vision,
Was your passionless passion;
Fulfilling your heartbreaking mission; 
Left me motionless, lolls,
The envisioned progress annuls.
You've got the balls
To step in & cause multiple falls
Of my hearten edifice,
Wreck it all to my greatest surprise,
Breached my barrier with such guts, 
your balm was my hurt,
Now I am left strut,
Alone, devoured and stuck 
To sit here in huge shock 
As you walk the solitary walk.

Sole Expedition

SOLE EXPEDITION

Night falls,
Thought calls,
Staring walls
like blinking dolls,
Fixed eyeballs,
Frameless vision
but ageless mission;
Motionless, lolls,
Progress annuls,
Full empty halls,
Alone & stuck
to walk
the solitary walk.

Premium MemberAn Old Mammal

Wettest summer in Ontario in the last twenty annuls
Turning quite aquatic, could swim the English Channel
That used to be a big deal
Now it's lost it's appeal
I'm really no hero, just an over-the-hill mammal

Caged Fury

eyes, face, hair & lips
 to lurk in the depths of denial
 yet too know all the great while
 a pen on paper

 many are lost in a land of toxic
 eyes with tombstones
 drifting in a raft out to sea
 a cause for love infused by hate

 grinding of the teeth
 weeping, wailing & gnashing
 viscous fangs that hang down to fright
 Satan laughing spreads his wings

 out of desperation loneliness sets in
 blackened stench of death
 like a lost mouse in a crazy maze
 we wake up in a purple haze

 Did you ever wake up saying it must be one of those days
 the annuls of parting conquest
 we shall live to pass every test
 although we must labor to enter the rest

 sadness, alone, bleeding, minds, explosion & memory
 A vortex of what is to come
 shattered fragments on the basement floor
 lest I implore another way to go

Pig Not Pie

A barrel of oink is a snout snaffling. Order of pig sect of oink. In a pink summersaulting cartwheeling ham chunk. Wee wee weeeee. Rolling. Hilltop. Hollybush road. Rhododendron. Raid bit trade. Road not noted. To be seen is to chippy tea and biscuits and caked bacon chop. Large amounts of stew. Hahahaha and now a fish earring. Hahahaha and a wastepaper basket with ten arms and twenty legs. Attempting the javelin. Oh how great. Fantastic. Such array. Magnitude. Fortitude questioned whether it is a village? Hahahaha rapid trend annual annuls **** analogues. No hahahaha to that toothpick asylum. Nor grin. Pitter patter then. Thoroughbreds' leaving now so goodbye. Gooseherds' and gooseheads with lemon sauce drip. Pachydermia. Xzx

Premium MemberLove Among the Stars

When we look above at the nighttime sky
We are filled with this great mystique
With the untold number of heavenly bodies
So foolish to think we're unique

If I was a gambler which I certainly am not
Could now be a very rich man
Betting on the existence of other life forms
In this heavenly scale so grand

Certainly I'm not all alone in my thinking
Many have thought this before
So to all of us bright minded individuals
The odds just can't be ignored

Unfortunately my time will end long before
A meeting with beings we call aliens
Most fantastic event in the annuls of mankind
To finally discover other civilizations

When we look above at the nighttime sky
We are filled with this great mystique
To think that one day we will finally meet them
And discover we're not so unique

Premium MemberWhen Machines Rule the Roost

There must be something I haven't written about

In over eighteen hundred poems

Searching and searching my large massive brain

But for now creativity has flown

Can't think of anything that's worthy of my time

I've started to run out of gas

Could write about anything just to fill in for now

But can't imagine writing just trash

Will bide my time, maybe suck on my thumb

That's how I usually get inspiration

In the future, the human mind will be extinct

That's the last of our imagination

A real sad day in the annuls of all mankind

Leave me out don't want to partake

In a society where machines are ruling the roost

And the freedom of mankind is at stake

Well thankfully I don't have too many years left

I know it would be hard to survive

In a world without warm and close human contact

This guy doesn't want to be alive

Premium MemberLooking For a Brain

Having a CT Scan in a couple of days
Most likely looking for a brain
Hope they find something that resembles such
Of course that might be a strain

Might think the Scanner is no longer working
Nothing's showing up on the screen
Came up with a idea for having some fun
Pulling the plug and hearing them scream

“Look at this, this man's missing a brain”
Never in the annuls of medicine
Have they come across this rare phenomenon
Head's filled with a stuff like gelatin

Literally ten doctors quickly appeared
All looking astonished, taking notes
Chuckling to myself at the fuss I've created
Reporters came looking for quotes!

Finally had to tell them of my fun little gig
But most didn't find it too funny
Told me, “Lie down and no more shenanigans
Or the nurse will call in your Mummy!
