Best Defaults Poems
Thank You, PhotoshopFor turning my eyes into shallow Pacific blues,
because nobody likes Chocolate.
For transforming the freckled clusterbomb on my face,
into baby skin smoothness!
Because freckles are humanity’s alleged worst enemy
and I refuse to allow my self-confidence to stay Pro-Activ.
Thank you, Photoshop
for giving me that liposuction I ALWAYS...

Warring WarriorsWarring wounded Warriors winded,
as they stand by the blood-stained shore;
Battalions breathily bruised and bended,
as they begin to march on for more…
Evil encounters evolve and enslave,
for their conquering captains do command;
As demons devour and deprave,
decompositional defaults within their demand.
Lachrymal lonely landscapes lament,...

Creative Climates For ThinkingfeelingWe are each a new way of bilateral becoming and thinking
about what a mind with body is,
where these are headed,
individually,
and as a part.
Thinking about what embodied consciousness is
and where,
in what stable climates of opportunity,
and which unstable subclimates of risk,
enculturing new ways of bilateral becoming
what our...

Grand PrioritiesWhat fills your goals, son?
I told you!
Need to get my car rolling [life rolling, love rolling]
yesterday,
if not today...
If I may interrupt
to process mindful resilience
for a bit...
Let me ask again:
Noticing you are concerned about long-winded
and -winding
and -whining
and -worrying despair
regarding personal and commercial transportation issues,
[but not...

BankingWhen government spends more than it collects in taxes,
it borrows money from a central bank, and must pay it back with interest.
Government never has the money when the loan is due,
so the burden of this debt falls on the taxpayer, me and you.
When local banks...

An Inmates Letter of Exhaust From AddictionAn Inmates Letter of Exhaust From Addiction
~Ricky Nichole Flanigan
An inmate’s life is built with love, but permanently judged by social population,
The unjust society plus there own family pushed mental states towards self mutilation.
Personal acceptance, starts with believing in one’s true meaning,
Stage...

Feet of ClayWho am I to know
the abstract silence
when you drink the moonlight all alone ?
The black toes of a dying woman
haunt me in a stream
of white shrouds. A night
of shattering perceptions,
defaults and ignorance.
Time bomb was ticking.
It had been troubling me...

DestinyFree will defaults,
Align harsh pains;
Trade troubles vault,
Escape feels vain.
Allow the heart,
Note passive lull;
Details prime start.
Demands now cull,
Expose the fraud,
Sense a wise fool;
Touch with a nod,
Indulge blunt tool;
Notice grim fate,
Yoke burdens state.

Prednisone PoetryOn occasion upper respiratory and sinus infections require
oral steroids to squelch and dry the muck and mire
To breathe without the wheeze is the desired effect
though some of the side effects are hard to reject
Loss of appetite is great, maybe I will lose some weight
some others...

Journeys 2Orchard Road buzz
Many feet zigzag;
Shopping sprees call
Zoo Night Safari park
Nocturnal wildlife stalk;
Peek beyond the dark
Bubble tea shoppe
Mind-boggling flavours;
Thirst-quenchers ply
Local zoo visit
Well-fed wildlife glowing;
National education works
Journeys end
New beginnings spur;
Scratch-and-Win ticket
So many tribes
Skin colour harmony;
That's Singapore
Paper puzzles
To decipher;
Know-how defaults
School day crowd
Not so long ago;
Blend of many colours
Momentary...

Fierce Driving Force
My awe and fascinated find
Lost deeply in a human mind.
Its fancy fonts, not easy read,
And yet it masterminds each deed.
Incessant innovative source,
Societies’ fierce driving force.
The scope of knowledge, wide and vast,
What minds grasp is designed to last.
Dishonoured...

Stomping On RadicalsOne does not stamp out radicalism
any more than one outspends capitalism
or fights successfully against militarism
or overpowers totalitarianism.
We might fade out radicalism,
co-invest capital in cooperative objectives for health,
discern together removing threats of mutually assured violence
and democratize polycultural empowerment
by inviting therapy through all natural-spiritual nondual valuables,
dynamics and...

Nurturing Sacred NatureWhat LeftBrain Yang learns about nature,

RightBrain Yin explores within Sacred Nature v Secularizing Pathology.
LeftBrain Yang
sells us Win-Lose choice
of therapy restoring peace, someday,
or retributive traumatic self-righteous justice,
sufficient for today.

with sacred natural-spiritual
nondual Yang-Yin primal relationship.

Mindful MomentsFlood of last light
Dusk abruptly settles;
Weary day defaults
Cicadas start
Their somnolent song;
Sunset serenade
July rains hurl
Fields wet with gravy;
Frogs making merry
Croaking highlights
Simple harmonic motions;
Pendulum clockwork
Bedtime story:
I tell a tale of me;
Dream-o-Land retreats
Now I go to sleep
Dear Lord I pray:
To live another day
Mindful of vain needs
I fly to...

Right Turns Hard TimesRight Turns Hard Times
David J Walker
Only a scooter as if
a Scooter
was just a toy
The memory disguised
as an errant thought
Brought tears of joy
To a man returning to a boy
Before he could possible
die alone at home...
