Best Axons Poems

"Artificial Iris"


Orwell was lurking in the background, somewhere;
the dream was eerily familiar, 
the words and their meanings, read in Syntax,
once read between pages of hardcopy in school 
were aptly ignored - 

however, 
our Overlords were seen 
not to be feared, but très cool

sleep no longer...

rushing inference, imminent insight
suddenly its clear, a gut feeling
       swooning, reeling,
 cross-connected hemi-sphere
syncopated, reverberated, totally aware

open bi-ways, ahh blue-sky days, making up my mind
synapses shiver, axons quiver, dendrites deliver
'lectrik-neurons fire suddenly in time

aha! aha! oh gawd I see, I...

With every thought and mood,
There beats a brain and heart,
With kirlian photography there can be viewed,
The aura around your corporeal part.

Your body is electric,
Each neuron is a spark,
Shocking that which is connected,
To each voltaic quark.

Electrical circuits create a force
We call electromagnetism,
Which surrounds the synaptic source,
Of...

On occasion upper respiratory and sinus infections require
oral steroids to squelch and dry the muck and mire
To breathe without the wheeze is the desired effect
though some of the side effects are hard to reject
Loss of appetite is great, maybe I will lose some weight
some others...

this anonymous weaver spins his written tapestry
to acknowledge your ninetieth year
no matter this author unknown who deftly weaves
(for pete sakes) with english poetry
which rhyming threads fire away 
(from axons to neurons)
at warp speed way out there
attempting to coalesce into some semblance
of comprehension from non other...

We made an oath
To stick to the code
We raised ourselves
Caught up on the block
It’s called a trap
Lives up to the name
Eric
Lefty
Peca
Jay
Just a few of the guys
We fought
We laughed
We cried
I lived they Died
Cotto
Noah
Siso
James
Just a few of the guys
The axons keep churning
In my troubled mind...

Konrad’s hoover hovers from wall to wall in the back room of his mind

A partial vacuum once the power switch is on and all neurons are firing

Time for a good clean up the curtains have been drawn for far too long

Stage abandoned curtains closed and...

Changing The Mind's Diaper

My mind is clouded and I just had these thoughts
So much going on my head is constipated
Filled with prime everything I was taught, 
The quantity is carried in my mind inflated

My minds full I need to change my heads diaper

My eye takes...

Bartender Oh Bartender
(a stout rendition of O Captain! My Captain!
Perfect rhythmic rhyme with tonic 
when the doth ale).

Mine eyes espy the glory per the ending 
of another work day beckon Baileys Irish Creme
with Absolut certainty that Fireball named Brandy 
the Patron Crown Royal abets dream

This brain has ripened its bruises, and bursted
in a desperate spasm of words, words, words.
 My lips slip, pucker, and fold, twin gods
Enlivened, electrified as they mold the steady "Om" of my throat,
 to thoughts, to thoughts.
They are tenderly birthed to you for a cold...

Once you were the ocean of emotions.
Perplexed, perturbed, desires and hesitations.
Waves of tears washed away my crazy cecity!
In the sea of fog, you still there……
Beautiful but quite hazy!

Yah, no more crazy!
Oh yeah hazy, quite hazy!

Like tornado you swirled through my axons.
My love……now you don’t hound,
Ah,...

Who needs a boost?
With endorphins you are always in the driving seat.
Belt up about clean bill!
Self love, self acceptance come in standard and
De Lux Editions, jewel case or soft pack
signed by the inner peace within.
Put those axons and dendrites to work.
Pump up those dormant alkalies...

No More Than Honeyed Lies`

Our lives be naught but
Honeyed lies comprised 
By capricious butterflies
so if it feels a bit surreal
You should not be surprised

That masked amongst
The fog and mist
lie scaley things that 
writhe and twist
That hope and dreams
be not what they seem
And tis futile to...

in all human history this is being said now
as the flies gather about my corpse
and its waiting Molotov cocktail booby trap
we all feast upon what we were
with more monotonous regularity
than what we might become
with all the ardor an erased memory can provide
a new non existence...

               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Artistic portrayal of life events as a diorama
Fog hinders sight, and exertion leads to drama
Seek ease, apathy, evade attentive scrutiny
aging stems mindful swing, leading to mutiny

Noxious prates...
