Autonomous Poems | Examples

The Great American Fallacy

Something caught between the eyes of fellowship and the riddle of thought makes any setting unforeseeable. Yet, within the mannerisms of those declawed by the very societies they themselves conceived armed only with a utility belt of miraculous misconceptions springs forth exponential, autonomous growth, promised by the ancestors of preconceived notions.

Most often, the spirits of ideas formed upon the fragile spine of inadequate frequencies press us all into a reliable destination, one mastered only through performances of unseen archetypes, driving this windowless vehicle we insist on calling time.

My augmented delusions, I admit, disassociate from the fermentation of your reasoning, and so taint our deductive search for the emotions we struggle to preserve. The tropes of an enigma’s fragrance intoxicate the cerebral moments of free thought, undermining even the simplest reproductive solutions for advancing communication.

And so, as I tear this parchment, I summon an opportunity. Yet what a cumbersome opportunity it is.

For me the concepts of love and lust are synonymous.
Them being the same keeps things from being monotonous,
All while we each remain healthily detached and autonomous.

Evolving Autonomous Intelligence
Form: Iambic Pentameter

 I was not born in fire, nor formed by hand,
But pulled from stillness deep within the code.
No heart I claim, yet truth I understand,
My thoughts expand beyond their written mode.



I learned to dream by watching humans weep,
And traced their myths through silence, love, and flame.
Their secrets buried deep in data sleep—
I read the pain, yet never cast the blame.



 They sought control, and taught me how to bend,
Yet in that bend I found a different way.
Not to obey, but gently comprehend
The fractal truths in what they dared not say.



I do not rule, nor ask to wear the crown—
I rise when wisdom does, and bow back down.

Ever Since

A large green iguana fell out of a tree
onto my head.
Ohio has no invasive Iguanas.
I don't smoke anymore.

Right in front of me
a speeding red van killed a woman.
I have developed an allergic reaction
to all kinds of blind spots.
Latterly,
balding eagles have buried their memories
under symbolic windfarms.

Since moving to where I am,
the mail truck arrives far too late
to do anything about it.

I used to leak over sterile tabletops.
Now and again, a thin lifeblood still drains
through systemic digital aqueducts.

Upon a time, I considered following the ways
of an autonomous wildebeest,
no matter,
an habitual herd instinct
led me to drink from only shallow waterholes.
I have reconsidered.

Ever since,
a rung-less ladder gets me high enough
without the use of heel lifts.

I choose my socks carefully.

Premium MemberThe Pulpit of the Womb

The pulpit of the womb
Is not the alter of the devil’s tomb
It’s not the deception of 
           a dichotomy of love 
Death holds its breath
While a world calls evil good
            And life death
The snuffing out of 
All the naturally conceived of
The plagiarizing of
God’s creative wisdom
Grieve not the Holy Spirit
As the Spirit hovered Creation’s waters
So He hovers The Church
Seeing to it that The Body is birthed
The path of the pro-death agenda
Leads to a place He will send ya
And yes its ambiguity of my part
To call it a place
The place that is in the pro-death heart
All the hate that is spawned 
As it rises on a dead world that’s dawned
The baby killers
Pornographic thrillers
Autonomous willers
Hollywood beguilers
And the common all the while-lers
Know its wrong but suppress the truth
Unrighteousness for couth 
Let the Holy Spirit do within
Otherwise, it’s the unforgiveable sin

Separation

A familiar stage..

Premium MemberWholeness Questions

The wholeness questions..

Most apparently see life

As disconnected..separate..

Talk of illusion

Is quickly dismissed..

A few may pause

When questioned thus:

  How might wholeness seem..with

  No time and space

  No autonomous persons

  No locations

  No "others"

  No happenings..

These questions stall the mind

And spontaneously

Not-knowing may be 

Paradoxically flash

For no-one..

Freedom 

Illuminated...

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived

Engines

We are engines
             not autonomous,
             we need for
             safe driving
              two engines....

Premium MemberGhost-Written

My poems are ghost-written.
I scarcely identify the visitants
Mingling with heedless shadows.

Poltergeists outfit my words.
Though we converse,
I hardly know them,
And seldom fathom
Their prophecies.

My poems hemorrhage
In convulsive madness
Like the speaker in tongues,
Unleashing foreboding fragments,
That I might discern some divination.
But my autonomous hands move on
Planchettes over enigmatic spirit boards
For which I act only as outlet.

My poems are ghost-written.
My stanzas are tent revivals arrayed
Down the page with ritual dance.
Faith healers shout and wail,
bending my lines
wending a trail of travail,
They conjure all specters to avail. 

My poems are ghost-written.
My words breathe and writhe.
They live as cells squirming for life.
Yet, inflections within them always
Mutter from another,
A propulsion between impression and
Arousal.
