“Never spend your time in anticipation of a future, procrastinating and thinking that we have so much of time ahead and many more opportunities on our way. But nothing is certain, only the present time and chances. They are in our hold and are ours....

Ambivalence
How long obstinate truth will surprise you? 
The moment like slippery things
Mixed emotions breath poison 
The blue sky in the plain...

Hanging decision uncertainly attacks
Snake of blood that crawls the heart. 
To put punctuation mark
In the uncaught wishes 
Dust gathers towards Happy-go-line.

Millions of voices alarm self-image.
What's...

Ambivalence

     Any action that comes to mind
     May be unambiguously defined.
     But being uncertain of the intention planned,
     Indecision will promptly show its hand.
     Very...

Ambivalence
What once was true love, has now become vengeance,
 we love each other better from a distance. 
Pride married Foolish, they begot Vanity,
 A sorceress who invented insanity. 
Under her spell, Foolish turned Pride to dust,
 a backfiring spell creating such as: Lust.
 Karma was...

Premium Member Wake Up and Smell the Ambivalence
What a beautiful cup of coffee 
I needed it so damn bad
Boy it hit the spot 
but didn’t stop the crave I had 

Now I want another one 
even more than the first 
I’m a petty man alas,
with ambivalence I burst

If I give in to...

Detect Bit of Ambivalence
Detect Bit of Ambivalence

Threw me for a curve
And loop and must be normal
To belong in group.

Is something missing
Or me who is resisting
Rules are insisting.

When I run rampant
And completely have free rein
Will I drive you insane?

Live in land of free
And will and receive my fill
Let's leave...

Ambivalence
Often I think that time never comes back,
and so I accept the fact,
life has to move on,
certain thoughts hover on.

It takes decades to build such a strong relation,
It cannot be explained what makes you trust someone,
slowly settled to a point that, perhaps it's just a...

Premium Member Dancing On Thin Ice
the heart is always right
unless this time it’s wrong
and this time is not like all the others

this game he must not lose
too much at risk
no room for error

is it worth the risk
has he hit the point of no return
is it really worth the venture

if it’s...

Seasons of Sanity

Affect my a$$.
It is ever thus.
Each season percolates
Distinct chemical essences from the 
Cauldron of consciousness
Sloshing edge to edge in my brain pan.

Normalcy.
No one knows what that elusive
Formula could be.
Perceptions are refracted
A thousand times over
Within the smoke filled
Fun house of our existence.

Synthesis.
Earth’s seasons typify
But...

Two Sides To Everything
When autumn comes
is winter far away?
Every silver lining
has a cloud.
This is the best of all possible worlds.
So says the optimist,
so says the pessimist too....

Juxtaposition
Ambivalence
Apparently vague
Contradicting, contrasting, confusing
Embedded rhetorical ambiguity
Alluring, enigmatic puzzle

Premium Member The Same Window
She sinks into her threadbare cushion
on the aged-old rocker she huddles in daily
placing her thin-skinned arms
cold to the touch upon the arm rail
darkened from the oil of her skin

Creaks and moans play a tedious rhythmic song
from loosed screws holding the oak rockers
that roll over the...
