Calling Upon All Angels

Crumbling worlds before emotional eyes lamenting,
Rumbling ruins through mortified masses repenting…
Abandoned cityscapes amongst vigorous viral venom,
Saddened silenced souls searching becoming benumb…

Within idol isolations irreversible tears turning to rust,
Mortal sin of evil endeavors amidst escalating mistrust…
Pandemic proportions within penetrating potential,
Systemic society enduring ever-evolving exponential…

Calling all upon Angels armored warring with swords,
Brawling battles brewing with running overlords…
Loving erupting from goodhearted women and men,
Shoving evil through oblivions arising once again.



...this poem can also be read backward~from right to left...

Bestowed Upon Me

Rolling in circles down hill
My life revolving around a pill
Distraught here alone in my bed
Can’t tell my legs from my head
Sounds of cars driving on the road
What upon me has been bestowed
One day from the next has gone missing
The snakes of my life surround me, hissing
Waiting to strike and inject the poisonous venom
Resulting in my movements to cease and benumb

Gone Alive

I know you think I’m morbid
when I come back from the living
wearing black all along
I’m gone alive and
I’m gone missing
in the air of all sullen mornings
and faraway looks
over the sleepless fields
blur my sight with tears of today
benumb my hearing with
waning voices I used to know
back in the day

I’m already gone alive and
I’m still gone astray
where any words or worlds
have no genuine weight
I’m drifting through outer space
carried downwind into the deeps
below the nescience 
into oblivion
above the lone fallstreaks

The Pomegranate

Not one, three bowls of lovely pomegranates
Look, the passion incarnate
Love or hate as you like, please don't desecrate
Gateway to glorious ecstasy
Of serene sensuality holding supreme creativity
And the all seeing mighty eyes!
Invitation to the abundant festival of inhalations 
‘Come, honeycombs are ready
Bees throughout eternity, come and benumb
Come here and swamp the boat’
Under the lavish moon there in the dark lagoon

Publish

Within that rule of thumb
that I am vanquished, yet among
majorities ~ the role's succumb
I cast it not ~ the vote's benumb?

Acceptance core ~ I take the floor
objecting, by what's evermore
the scoundrel's choice, is his rapport
so in my station ~ file encore!

Admonishing by gains restore
the underdog of faith's implore
is greed ~ and tools its own abhor
creating havoc ~ to have more!

The time be right ~ the writer's chore
in all directions ~ leverage store
the composition of truth's score
is now's own lesson ~ reaching for!

Composure ~ let us write and pour
out our aggressions ~ published o'er!

Taught In My Codes

Glad you be in grace 
Benumb, in disgrace 
Hearty you be in giving
Broad you be in forgiving.

So much did I hear -
The buzz of moral quotes

Either sung by Gurus or coded in Scripture;
Either floating in the air of practitioners.

Virtue lives in the instincts.
I feel incapacitated in trials and errors,
Exhausted in files of books.

I am rather empty,
rather humble in the dearth of knowledge--
I know - not much;
But I follow - what comes from within --
Thus I mold my life's coding.

White Virgins

It began with a single flake of snow
That fell upon my brow so gently down.
Almost  imperceptible, ever so
Subtle and  never making any sound.
I love these silent tiny crystalline
Flakes that now are falling numerously
In front of grateful eyes at wintertime.
I extend my open hand graciously
And welcome these white virgins from heaven
That have clung to me so effortlessly.
Their prodigious numbers against my skin
Benumb my hand homogeneously.
I stand alone in winters fading fling
Holding these virgins while thinking of Spring.

September Secrets

fireflies stay hidden,
              to the stars unbeholden
                              as moon melts golden!


              and at darkest nights
                              when damp, dark-green foliage sleep
                                              with secrets to keep!


                              lightning cracks the day,
                                              thunders stun, benumb the brain,
                                                               dance, September rain!

September Sights

lightning cracks the day
                           thunders stun, benumb the brain

                                           and at darkest nights
                           when damp, dark-green foliage sleep
             with secrets to keep,

                                           fireflies stay hidden
                            to the stars unbeholden
             as moon melts golden
