Carpe Diem

CARPE DIEM

These struggles are not insurmountable.
I am striving and thriving for more.
The strife I am in put me on top of the world.
Today I know people for who they are.
However, all this is just preliminary.
Foundation for me to excel from.
I am going after my dreams.
I will not be hinder by downward spiraling.
I will seize the day.

The discord of a country is political propaganda.
It will cause friction and human mania.
However, this is just a prerequisite to becoming a develop country.
I see the dilemma of a nation living as one.
I know that my niche has formed.
I must sequester a destiny to conform the norms.
The Lord has given me this transformation to perform.
No bamboozling is allowed.
I will seized the day because this is my time.

Great Scot
that trot
on gnomes
and domes
Bamboozling, casting spells in dark site
Roaming and iridescent  like sprite


Bamboozle

Your seduction gnaws at my soul...
It crawls through my defenses...
Mystifying my senses...
Bamboozling my thoughts...
Down is up...
Right is wrong..
But worst of all,
Wrong is right...
Because I am in love with you...

Premium Member Midst Technology-Caused Confusion, I Trust God

I praise God for modern telecommunications’ inventions
Making mankind benefit so well
But I feel bad, when in their vexing, “gobsmack” malfunctions
I become dysfunctional; thus, my exasperation-nerves swell!

I thank God for computer experts
For their good contributions, indeed numerous
Yet I got nervous when their genius alerts
Warn me of glitches’ “bamboozles” due to internet-driven virus!

I seek God for His enlightening wisdom
When confused with social media's bewildering entanglements
I’m sad though for those who abuse information-freedom
As they deny and neglect consequences of their engagements!

I pray to God to guard me from being deceitfully puzzled
With varied scams’ alluring appeal and financially enticing 
By global transactions “gobsmacking” netizens to be wealth-dazzled
Using fake identities; yet others’ privacy --- compromising and exposing!

I trust God for His control midst “hacking” ventures
Of ill intentions, never amusing, to wreck information sites
Such are shocking “bamboozling” gestures
Dominated by selfishness-blights and greediness' heights!

I rely with faith as I rejoice* in God Who knows what’s best
Despite “gobsmack, bamboozle and confusion”-attacks…
To Him do I yield my questions for His great answers to the fullest
Since His omniscience subdues my doubts with His truth’s packs!

*1Chronicles 16:10 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

Friend

There emanates a point in your life 
when you recognize who actually matters,
 who never did, and who always will.
Who`s words gave you a curious satisfaction,
 as when a coin, tested, rings true gold.
Someone who come to your rescue and brightened
 so many of your routine days.
Someone who never turned his back on you 
or told you that you wasn’t good enough 
or let you down. 

Someone who can perceive the reality 
and agony in you even when you are bamboozling everyone else.
Someone who talk to you, 
with a voice soft and sweet as a tune that one knows.
Who gives you love that sings and has wings as a bird.
Someone who crack you up with laughter,
And touch your heart with their kindness.
Someone who went through so much pain and who still have time 
for you.

Someone who discerns the track in your soul
 and can croon it back to you when you have forgotten the lyrics.
Someone who is fanciful
 and extravagant as a caliph's dream.
Who`s friendship is pure as the naked heavens.
Someone who can take your hand and comfort your tears,
hold you and soothe your fears.
Someone who is as precious as the, diamond which sinked,
when the titanic sanked. 

Someone who makes you giggle,
even when you think you'll never smile again.
Someone who fills your life up
 like a cup with bubbling and sparkling liquor.
Someone you tell your secrets deep,
and trust them in your heart you’ll keep.
Someone to hold your hand,
or a hug to say I care.


Ride To a Nuthouse

Now I am sitting alone in this
Funny wagon with my boom box
and minding my own business
along with a bunch of numskulls
who thinks I am a nutcase like them—
What a drag! And they think we are
all going to a Funny Farm where
they take those who go bananas!

But I know better because
I am good and dandy--
One hell of a cockscomb dude!
All I am doing is 
bamboozling them for now,
Behaving as if I am one of them—
These dolts, dim-witted blockheads!

But, YOU, who’s reading this,
can vouch for me, won’t ya?
Why? Because you are as cool as I am,
It takes one to know one!

You catching my drift, ain’t ya?

Compliance

Ahh, we meet again my foe
Away is one place you seem to never go.
Trying to drag me in to your delicious lust,
So full of temptation, I'm fixin' to bust!

"Come on," you say. "Just one little bite,"
"No, no," I reply. "My jeans are already too tight!"
Now and then you make me succumb
Then your lusciousness makes me go numb

Your sweet talk tip-toes inside my ear
One of many things I do not wish to hear
For it puts me to a challenge, the worst at most
For I know if you win you will never cease to boast

STOP bamboozling me into your splendor!
Even if you are so tender!
Against you and your flavor I hold the deepest grudge,
So I bid you adieu, my dearest friend------ Fudge.

Neverending Foolishness

There are times,when I can get too serious,
unrelenting,I suppose is my characteristic fashion.
but,venting in such a manner,is better than becoming furious,
especially when there's nothing but, jukin'n jivin,duckin'n dashin',
all for the sake of,"the gimmegoogoos",goggling,
drooling'n strolling for their next bamboozling...

Supposing that we all have our own version of importance,
we'll continue this dance of guffaws,along with the present tense...

Premium Member A Life More Extreme

Lured by the money, she chases a dream,
leaving her home for a life more extreme.

Mistresses of upper society;
high-priced call girls, project propriety.

Enticed by the glamorous life, she yearns:
lust fuels the flames as innocence burns.

Sullying her soul, for dollars and fame;
pimping herself is all part of the game.

Her heart has witnessed so much pain unfold,
love's no longer unique: it's something sold.

Her words of sincerity sound hollow:
like the phony smiles, men pay to follow.

Tomorrows cannot be fully explored,
feelings are meaningless: when love is whored.

Bamboozling her family and her friends,
ignoring reality: she pretends.

Yet, anguish slowly envelopes her soul,
as her lifestyle levies a heavy toll.

And truth only exacerbates her plight:
piercing awareness, like slivers of light.

We Have the Knowledge of All These and Still

Wherefore the pride in being proud?
Whence the deciduos beauty once to be moulded by a shroud.
Wherefore the exhilarition and glory in war ?
Whence these vain citadels brim out only harrowing tears.
Wherefore the joy in bamboozling others?
Whence from sin can't we run or escape neither.
Wherefore the pleasure in speaking irony?
Whence pronouncing the sweet can act as sweet as honey.
Wherefore the divide between richness and poverty?
Whence one notion stands before God and thats equality.
Wherefore the grief in the death of nears and dears one's?
Whence no tears brims while passes away others.
We have the knowledge of all these and still;
Mind will be in its own place till enlightment in our mind gets filled.

Paint With Fire

Pain is never embraced.
Agony is a defeated place.
     Incorporated with grace,
Nice to know you made second place.
This competition did not bring humiliation.

While your solitary stance brought forth happiness, you strive for more.
It is not unusual to yearn for the original.
    To zenith as an author, is so magnificent.
History is an hourglass to capture.

Face up to your inadequacies in the bamboozling.
     Inform yourself of all strategy necessary to win.
Run amok with your first place masterpiece.
Educe a focus for others to perceive.

Happy National Friendship Day August 5th 2018

Unlike this papa akin
     to being racked, raided,
     and raked with hot coals
during his adolescence devoid of
     a social network and academic goals
if possible to magnify
     psyche, one would see
     mostly a torn shred of holes

thy youngest (of deux) daughters
     did not agitate
as much as myself, asper being
     emotionally isolated, a miserable fate
she participated with
     supportive services how grate
full (this once psychologically dead papa),
     progeny did not experience

     chronic severe hate
Shana (Punim) blessed by fate
while a Lower Merion
     High School student did great
fully experience positive
     munificent interpersonal bounty,
     she didst illustrate
with smiles all around her countenance,

which sophomore socialization better late
than never, which friendlessness
(that didst plague this papa),
     thee progeny didst obviate
thus, this poem
     (to no one in particular),
     expresses how I appreciate
the plethora of supportive

     services, to ameliorate
bugaboo sans inferiority complex,
     (ran rampant within self)
     where mine imaginary
     pals did commiserate
nonetheless, aye envy thine
     begotten Harris heiress,
whose self esteem positively bolstered

     ensure ring a confidential boost,
     and now doth demonstrate
how remedial, and extracurricular activities
     during and after class respectively,
combatted cognitive delay,
     warding off bullies,
     who did grate, humiliate
and interrogate, this middle aged

     (he's a good) fellow,
     Johnny come late
lee to the "NON FAKE" game of life
     changing strengthened soul asylum

     primary, secondary, and tertiary grades
     where whip sawed, pejoratively emasculated  
     hoary golem, unstintingly bruiting, brow beating
and bamboozling gremlins 
     wrought zealous destruction!

Premium Member Crystal Ball

Colorful ribbons adorn her hair,
Reds and golds, fluttering in the air.
You feel drawn toward her gypsy tent,
Summoned to a mystical event.
Time is enslaved in her crystal ball:
And as she calls the spirit of Baal,
Lightning flashes in her stormy eyes.

Bamboozling you, she sells sordid lies,
As superstition preys on your fears.
Little by little, hope disappears,
Listening, as she foretells of tears.
