SHALL WE DANCE

Shall we dance, as two snakes encircling one another,
A bite to the strike, whom draws the first blood of 
Passions bitter poison.
Venomous vipers, engaged in a twisted game of hidden desires,
Shielded by golden bands of confinements vows of promise, 
Yet yielding under the...

The Circle
We learn to sit and then to crawl
Because our view is just too small.
From crawling next we start to walk;
Confinements only make us balk.

Once we can walk, we learn to run;
Our exploration has begun
And once adulthood is unfurled,
We head on out to see the world.

The...

Abandoned By Your Songs
In the passage of time, my love has grown old without you,
A fragile flower, aching for the touch of morning dew.
Once, our dreams interlaced, and we painted sunsets bold,
Casting vibrant hues across the sky, a tapestry to behold.
But now, those sunsets fade, their brilliance turned...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Sensless ( Part Two )
In all these triumphs and human attainments 
To overcome these realities of material boundaries and confinements 
Do we simply fill our lives with possessions and possessive capitalist greed
Is it just ego and the fear of death that governs our sense of individuality

Have not all of...

I Chose
I chose  
I could’ve been
A homebound hermit,
Hypnotized by the hum
And hue,
Of a high-tech 
HD computer screen.
A slave 
To the
Rhythmic rap
Of 
Clicking keys;
Depriving me 
Of much 
Needed rest.
I’d Search 
For Love 
And friendship 
In a network 
Of strangers,
Oblivious to 
The world 
Outside.

I would’ve
Made a great...

Social Justice

Social justice is the fair and just relation between the individual and society. 
I am an American
I just want fair and just treatment
wanting my fellow man and government
to represent, me
fairly
A measured explicit and tacit terms 
for the distribution of wealth, opportunities 
for personal activity...

Through the Wall
This morning I left my bed
With reticence in my bones.
The old house shifted and settled
In another transitional place.
The car groaned changes of metal
Unlike what I came to expect.

Conservative witches chant
How maintenance is all worth,
How we must hold onto illusion
Despite the human expense,
How the fixing of...

In Dreams
In dreams 
I can do anything
no feats impossible
I fly deep
into the abyss
conquering my fears
I am more 
alive inside
Than I’ve ever been
Released from
the confinements of 
this life’s mortal limits...

He Knows
You can't kill
a man with soul
They forgot to engrave 
His fate on his forehead
And draw the roads
To a proper life on his palms
But he knew
He knew that life belongs
To those who could touch
Touch bodies, send messages
Through skin
Seek one another in sense
Taste the fibres of dreams
Through...

The Ex
Looking back at the past relationship I've had
I question why I stayed when it was so bad
The only conclusion I can draw; he had me hook line and sinker
 Controlled confined from life, no more an original thinker
I thought as I saw what he was...

Death Dishonorable
Deepening black of the coming night
Foretelling of the evil things to come
Swirling black clouds filled with might
The blackened place that hate comes from

Senses sharpened, sight honed blade sharp
Keen eyes searching in the blanketing fog
Tick tock tick... sanity of mind departs
Terror leaps from behind the broken...

By Invite, Aquaintance
Confinements of thought have digested esteem
In a roving concern any fairytale can -
And it tells him for instance that this is no dream,
But a time spoke, Amera, was when it began. 

A knowing adventure where verse in formation  
Converge with precision exploring folklore,
The illusion...

Love Whispers
Love whispers
Love whispers in my ears
Demanding I smile in the darkness
Soothing my fears in the dark
Holding my hand in the waves 
Steadying the beat of my heart
Drying the tears in my eyes
Love whispers in my ears.

Love whispers in my silence
Finding me when in hiding
Lighting up...

Stuck
Stuck
Help me
I cannot move
I have forgotten your name

Stuck
With no escape
Only this abjectness
And the entirety of my pain

Stuck
But I have a plan
I will overwhelm my body with oxys
Then barf the life right out

Stuck
Now; in the confinements
Of a failed institution
Nowhere to go-
My only choice
Was to travel adventurously...
