Best Bemusing Poems
A Kept WomanDream-worker
delves deeply into my dream;
vibrations fondle anticipation
foreplay wakes wide-eyed
swells of liquid libido quake the rendezvous edge -
a primordial being in his prime
a masculine ego quest for affaire d’amour;
her night-loving body
c h a s e d
around circular seasons
across sky-cycles of solstice...

The Prodigal Son!?And then I took this box of blight, and cast it into the sea of forgetfulness
Once I had finally realized, that it had become a Pandora unto myself....
A portal of passage towards darkness' infiltering of my heart
To oppress and repress, within these guises of its...

The Empirical Veneers of Decency and AcceptanceThe Empirical Veneers of Decency and Acceptance
It’s funny how perceived intelligence
Is not necessarily a measure of true smarts
How the genius, the barrister and the eloquent
Can miss the point from the very start
It’s quite bemusing to observe her lack of self-awareness
And confusing...

Mind-Body ConsciousnessI AM as I AM, free & formless in a domain timeless
In, as & one with & within the sea of Oneness
Dissolved and yet in as ordained, distinct
Pure love awareness in a boundaryless precinct
In, within and in yet as by Oneness ordained
The beingness...

An Adverse World Uncurled“I am NOT like my father!!!
You say that again, I’m going to kill you!”
I shrivel up in shame
For, I am not to blame
For the shenanigans you put me through so many times
Sometimes, I wish I was no more, but the clock still chimes
Yeah, I’m...

Our HeroA little piece I wrote for Flips Funeral
There is an interlude to the beginning
But the present has now passed
As I record this passage
Of a hero to the last
So I beat a hasty path
On my outward journey
Two hours I...

Ghazal
A Dead RoseA calm hue shed
the morning light
into confetti strewn,
across my path snubbed by my eyes
bemusing passers by.
My waking thoughts were doused in you
for heartache plagued this land.
A single rose bestowed on me,
I clenched dead in my hand.
When morning broke in melody,
I strained to hear...

Seeing My YouthHe comes again this year
With him my buried relatives
I welcome them with warm feelings
All day everyday for a month or more
Uncertain confusing it will be pretty bemusing
I see it everyday now

TransientLike a transient thought
You entered my dialogue
Seeking to become
Discourse of my mind
Confusing my words
You tampered response
Bemusing my mood
Feigning what love was
Until reality grasped
A fraudulent trespass
Holding firmly at bay
Faux vision of romance
Yet, our rendezvous
Was willingly allowed--
Lascivious to assuage
Exotic wish of the heart

Understood
"Understood"
My feet stand solemn
grounded they're barefoot
sinking in the undertow,
feeling what’s real
my toes grip the past
while the slow words
wash it irrevocably away
the ego sashays
and hangs that Faust in the wardrobe
Locks it away
turns the key
I put it on my tongue
swallow the meaning of that,...

In Honor of George MichaelVoice like velvet
Positivity defined
Optimistic nature
Enchanting, sweet and kind
An image that's seductive
Rebellion at its core
An influence that's constructive
Charisma that opens doors
A persona that's gargantuan
A force to be reckoned with
A soul who's enigmatic
In this plane did...

Old JetDay was very sunny,
Old Jet felt so funny,
Old black lab, muzzle grey,
His family off to work today,
Old Jet lay down to sleep,
Left alone, watchdog to keep,
His gait was slow,
Not much get up and go,
Jet slumbered on,
Not too long,
His canine dreams bemusing,
Flashbacks Old Jet...

Uncivil DiscourseI find it bemusing;
The sentiments some are choosing;
The language they are using;
When communicating their dissatisfaction,
With opposing political factions,
Whose personal appeal they find lacking.
So, I ask this my friends!
Examine what you say and pen.
Would you like this said of you?
Does it matter YOU believe it’s due?

A Poem Written On My BirthdayYoung Love I Envy Not
Young love I envy not:
Bemusing time
Of upset hearts
And inept kisses
When lofty dreams
With passion zoom
Through twists and turns
And dead-end chases—
No, I prefer my love mature,
In marriage steady,
Two hearts content,
When each brief kiss
Renews a vow
And each sly glance
Stirs memories
Of young bemusing love.
Birthday: November...

Black EyesBemusing beauty of black eyes
As they stare into the silent soul
No need for needless words
As lusty love lovingly makes
Honest hearts hopelessly happy...
