Best Begets Poems

The attraction between male and female
Is truly a force of nature
So powerful even in strife
It literally creates life.

People fall in love
They keep their business themselves
Want to stay together
And wish to stay forever....

Don't you jive me no more blues
You take this my gin my booze
One here needs to get a life
Talk of Christ on my world cruise.

“Evil begets Evil” 
I read upon the derelict arch, 
Engraved in the stone: a warning to all 
Who to these ruins would march. 
“Evil begets Evil” 
  
“Evil begets Evil” 
Even the welcome mat 
Reeks of waste, not welcoming at all. 
Just cracks with...

A Sonnet begets life.
     Joy, her child, leaves her womb,
     bliss that transcends the tomb
and dulls the Reaper's scythe!
Ah! Joy belittles strife;
     delight, as from bedrooms
     (without impassive gloom),
makes...

Genesis struggles and strains
sweeps and steers
stresses and sears
toward Exodus,
as traumatic birth 
precedes Great Therapeutic Transition

As breathing in spring
pauses at summery fullness
just in time to slowly exhale 
down toward falling harvest,

This New Sacred Economic Tree of Life 
in Health and Beauty Paradise
produces permacultured 
powerful Live-eviL 
dipolar...

Kindness comes easily to many who naturally exude goodness
These empathetic people have usually suffered
They recognize pain and hurt thus they try to save others
 
weaves pain into kind 
grudge holding would hurt her heart
lovely empathy

The warm bed we keep is under siege this loving night
Ghostly shafts of the moon's light flicker to plunder my sleep
I stir with tender desire under diffused moonbeam's delight
Your warmth resides near to draw me closer to your cheek

In the darkened night I secretly kiss...

Back in our preverbal day
of healthy regenerating time,
indigenous wisdom
pursued peak experiences
of cooperative pleasure,
deep co-empathic embrace.

Sometimes,
especially when this pleasure was sustained,
euphoric,
ejaculatory
and reverberating in resonant cycles
of deep wombed ecstasy,
procreation happened,
preferably in the spring
when new life is more likely to thrive
with bountiful rain
and lusty green bullfrog refrains.

Not until...

Living proof of what lies ahead
Into the darkness of the dead
For every breath that one must take
Endless lines attending wakes

Begin to age at time of birth
Evokes the misery without the mirth
Generates souls bound for hell
Every time another fell
Tasting dementia of the vile
Seeds the bitter with...

FREEDOM BEGETS SACRIFICE
	The pelican bird says; “even as I wound my peek’
To break the hardest wood’
To continue the lineage,
I won’t get benefit here, but, lives good legacy,
As I passed the agony as they suck me! So they can live.”

The mother snake says; “even as the...

The mother loved him before she met him. 
On days when her love posed a threat 
She gambled with her health 
And cradled him against her breast,  
And clenched her teeth  
to preserve the gift her love begets.
She supposed that with this seed...

I framed your silhouette 
snapped from shadow
captured when I feigned 
a photograph of your profile
in bright sunlight 
with white wall behind.
I wanted an outline of you 
in sharp contrast relief,
so my mind could fill in 
all the details from memory
- a changing slide-show
  of...

The force is erupting another deified element. 
A calm walkabout that's gathering the fully intent.
The realm you seek is forward down the left hand path. 
To each his own, by this  trickery of faith and Holy wrath.
Devoured by the misunderstanding, and  directed by...
