A Love Beyond Comprehension

She sat in the moonlight, her back to the bay,
Absorbed in thoughts of her own destruction.
A fortnight ago she had come to the rock;
At the break in the surf where the eddies pooled -
A night set afire by a bright blue moon.
As the surge crashed the rocks, the mist wet her face;
The dampness of the...

Premium Member Unfinished Poems

All poems are unfinished
Only those in sonnet are finished
Completed, done, and terminated
A poem can still be edited
Revised, retouched and rewritten
A poem is a powerful tool or weapon
Leave alone my unfinished poems
These are my spices, my stars, my emblems
You don't understand their symbols
And the words used to fill up the bowls
You just have to read my...

Comprehension

Acceptance of the truth
Heard it, comprehended
Tears eluded, insisted on suppression
Ascended to above it, insisted on overcoming
Realized and harnessed my inner power
Refused to be a victim
Empowered by recognition 
This was all my doing
Inhale release it
Can get pass this
A blessing but mostly a lesson
A shaper of future choices
The fact is… it’s cherished
This experience so beautiful and heart...

Premium Member Winged Comprehension

Inside its tiny brain,
does it think?
"I'm a cargo plane."

Or does it
imagine acrobatic feats?

Does it hear
its wings sound zooms?
As it flies across a room.
Imagining,
“I have flown 
to the moon!”

Likely though,
there is no thought.
Mercifully when
in a spider’s web,
CAUGHT!...

Presentation,Interpretation,Translation,Comprehension

In this life of ours...
we will always be presented with images,
which will stir those inner sensations
which may,
sometimes confuse our interpretation of them...
only a certain inner strength
will translate our understanding........

A Poem

How does one consolidate such great feeling, 
Such knowledge, such powerful, almost frightful thought?
Those passionate notions
That I am sudden to see
Unconscious revelations
Making themselves known  
How has it then made itself known to me, to you, and all others
And yet, has failed to be seen to the one that truly matters
The one that will make...

Musical Comprehension

Listen to the music,
That plays in everyday.
Dance, sing, and use it,
Because we have no words to say.
How we feel or what we are
Just things we can't explain
But the music isn't so very far
And its what keeps this world sane....

Feral Beyond Comprehension

He was untamed by human nature,
wild as a lion and fierce as a wolf.
Not carrying any instinct other than 
intense cruelty,
he kept his brutality for safekeeping. 

Like an undomesticated cat he roamed
the streets at night searching for what
seemed to be his prey. 
Like a chameleon during the day he
seemed like a soul searching for
redemption,
but that...

Premium Member Coarising Comprehension

My LeftBrain is busy reading a book
on what Systems Theory
and thinking
and experience find encouraging
for WinWin social change,
where no losers are allowed to fail
at thriving away from WinLose capital stuckness
in everyday mundane egocentrism,

But,
at the same time
my RightBrain is trying to imagine how to share
scat jazz vocal experiments
so other sanctuary choir members 
can have the same celebratory

Comprehension Is For Comfort

A well bring forth nutritious water for nourishment. A mothers breasts warm comfort to a baby to lay head and rest; after the hunger cured by the warm fresh milk from her breast. It only cross most minds the significance of the simple things we conceive as automatic which exist in our lives; until they're...

Beyond All Comprehension

BEYOND ALL COMPREHENSION
By Roy Merritt
(A dated poem since Michele Bachmann is thankfully no longer in Congress)


I heard some news today
That promptly grabbed my attention
News beyond all belief
Beyond all comprehension

What might it be you say
What could cause me such distress
What could be just so unnerving
Leave me near mad more or less

But I’m sure if you gave...

Premium Member Depression Steals Real Lives

Depression kills
Real lives.
Depression steals
Real lives.
Self-punishment
Is not the answer.
Self-fulfillment
Is the profound desire
To love oneself, to be proud,
To hope and to cry out loud
That happiness and success
Are waiting near the corner.
Suicide is evidently not the answer.
Joy can neutralize anxiety, anguish and anger.
Depression is a bad disease, take it seriously.
Nothing is simplistic, simple or easy
In life.  Stay...
