Best Designates Poems

Three Sonnets tell a story, in sequence.
[From the narrative poem, "Don't Go to Wyoming Alone"]

         I. Natural Instinct  (Chivalric Sonnet)

He saves a wad of cash and designates
the stash to finance trek in far-off land
in hunting boots...

I know that is what you are trying to do until you don’t lose.
     Upset the balance of a rightful world to
Destroy a focus that remains visionary to 
     Defeat the purpose of eternal peace.
Against the odds,...

The most important name of God in the Old Testament (Ex 3:14)
It can be translated “I AM WHO I AM”
For Jews as well as Christians
It designates the one God of the whole world
Their creator. Preserver
Covenant partner, liberator from slavery in Egypt
Judge and Savior.

The morning is fair and without compare;
desire to escape commotion in motion.
With apologies to Frost, but I’m lost
in sylvan idyll; my thoughts to distil.
I should have turned left or maybe the cleft
ignored as the bend designates the end.
Peering into the void I can’t avoid
the nagging...

The average American makes no deductions
Throwing normal people off with assumptions
Money runs the government designates production
I don’t see the point, anymore, I see with my gumption.

I’m using my life to make more connections
I do it in a way no one sees the corrections
Similar to words...

Each religion has its own ideology
Its own house of worship
It has its own dialect,
It is bounded by 
its own rites and rituals
Its own drama and myth
It has its own justice system 
Its distinct way of atonement
Its own unique style,
It is partial and onerous,
It promises heaven...

Emotion to the top
Spreading fire, spreading the spirit
Looksee what it designates
Moving with the head beat
Slicing like thin clouds
Alternative
Speech marks, going to the clouds
Slicing like rain on a glass window
Why can I feel this?
Like normal, like longer.
Etiquette charm endearance 
Fire like smokey joe
Belonging
Singing 
Believing 
Reality...

It has come to this,
we’re in all time bliss,
be it day or night,
unending delight.

Within body prism,
divine magnetism
pulsates as it likes;
rapture often spikes.

Bliss caress sublime,
sounds a rhythmic chime,
holding focus still,
aligned with God's will.

We no longer sigh
on moments gone by,
living in the now,
as bliss beats endow.

God's grace...

As I bow down to illustrate gallantry, people bend me more
I become honest in every aspect, I become wretched and poor

I practice self-restraint, society designates me backward
I walk in path of nobility, only anguish and agony over shroud

I crave for an ounce of happiness ...

What’s so special about a whole year?
Aside from the birthdays we hold dear.

January represents the start of something new,
so you can forget all the things you have been through.

February designates when lovers can officially share,
just how much that they truly care.

March declares that with green...

Human Malady

Everything has it's time 
When an event is ripe
Nothing can elude it
As the chiming of a clock
Designates a specific time of day
So events in our lives 
Yesterday is history 
Today is here, alive with us
Tomorrow is pregnant,  unknown 
No matter our escapade, ...

All in lies
and to hope betrayed
this human prayer
in requests of faith
holds the precipice to its heart

All divest by such noncommittal love
all broken by the dreamings of
but to its feet lays petition
for the signatures of psychopaths

All becomes contrary to the heart
endorsement beneath threat
to stand alone
with all...

Invisibly tortured courtesy existential nihilism

Psyche wracked with agony
impossible mission to extricate lovely bones
they wanna remain permanently abed.

I chiefly function to amass knowledge
courtesy assiduously, habitually,
and judiciously reading
an eclectic assortment of written material.

Yours truly woke
with ambition, disposition,
inclination, and predilection
to glean from an assortment
of books esoteric learning
since... birth,...

Oranges and oil 
old smells like burning wires 
Black cryptic desires 
An iron hand upon the velvet 
oranges and oil 
static noise white hot glows 
Softly in the night 
Ominous 
opulence 
oblivions volume 
even higher 
oranges and oil 
Blue oxygen runs 
onyx tubes 
brighter memories...
