Seasons come 
And seasons go
In all of the above
Her colours flow
 
Just like pages
In a book
What the seasons bring
Are worth a look
 
Spring brings life
In many ways
The sun radiates
From warm awesome rays
 
The summer oozes
With blooms and colours
Greenery greens
Canopy covers
 
The winter decides
Who lives and dies
The reader dissects
In passionate cries
 
But the season for me
Are the Autumn Pages
It's decision to end
In colourful stages
 
 
This poem came to me as i was reading poems by Autumn Page.

Premium Member Travelling In Norway

In the arctic frozen sky of the enchanting land the midnight sun
leans on the horizon briefly in bright summer and again it rises,
I didn’t know when a new day actually would have or had begun.
The frosty sky in winter night burns in flashes of aurora borealis.

The North Sea stretches the long arms through the blue fjords,
the visible heritage of the glacial deep scoop of the Pleistocene,
dissects the corrugated coastline as if sliced by the Viking sword.
I was held captive there for a long time by the magnificent scene.

To unravel the petrified mysteries of the Nordic Caledonian rocks
I crossed many dales and ridges of the geologic arc west of Bergen,
walked for days across the uninhabited islands where eagles flock. 
In the cold crystal rains the shelter of the ancient caves I had taken. 

On my travel I stayed a number of days in Lyderhorn, a small village
overlooking the tranquil turquoise waters of the narrow Loddefjord. 
A gracious lady of the pretty house, Julia Aasen in her advanced age
gave me a furnished room at a rent that at the time I could afford.

She used to invite me for dinner at her place almost every evening,
offered me plate full of peppered boiled potato and hot fiskeboller,
slices of brown bread she baked with thick Jerlsberg cheese topping,
showed fondly the faded pictures of her late husband, a fish seller.

Time came to leave and say heart-felt ‘tusen tak’ on a freezing day.
She presented me a pair of woolen gloves she had specially knitted.
Years later when I wear these her frail touch they remotely convey,
I feel the warm heart of Julia of Norway although she has departed.

The Prophesy of Me

These Hallowed halls
Frequented by myth and griffin
Whose presence Guards these priceless minds
 Protecting the unwritten novels
M C Squared and ingenious thoughts
The prophesy of zero one

This gluttony of ideas thirsting on capitalisms juice
Summoning their messiahs to walk among us
The commodities of life, this treasured bible
Children the future and Capitalism dissects,
 Yet Another batch of disciples

So what care I for prophets of doom
Population before climate 
Religion over peace
Vanity before reason
Pride over poverty
Cap and gown before that which created me
For I live high above these ghetto streets

Yet my peace is drowned by Evening chorus
Screams from the gutter
Another tattoo and the rush of heroin 
Another type of messiah 
Something for the poor to believe in
Just another nickel and dime resource to me

Yet to hear this is a damnation of me
This arrogance over nature
To control that thing
That shackles our existence
That jails our thoughts
Prostitutes our freedom
And lets us die without reason

This way of life
Of poverty and desperation
Of concrete and aborted foetus
Of welfare cheques and sex for sale

Of unhappy beings behind
Unhappy doors 
Protecting their own portals of betrayal
In a private subjugated hell
For Compassion has left these mortal beings 
And my mind is closed, for there is no profit for me

 
But conscience is my jury
And nailed to this holy cross
The verdict is written
Vermin under the butterfly
For compassion was never my thing?
And Human nature can be,
A most desperate thing.


Premium Member LUMINESCENT CONFESSIONS-A Poem Based on a Song Contest

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Suspended like a cataract’s pale lens,
     *the cold-hearted orb rules the night~
          its blue-gray light pooling 
               into the hollow of his heart.
  
Fourteen envelopes stacked like unmarked graves.  
     He fingers the topmost seal, the wax brittle as hope~  
          the moon bleaching
                their blue edges to bone.  

What ghosts swim in this lunar milk? 
     No answers come~  
          only the ache of his ink
                confessing:

These are *letters I’ve written, never meaning to send~

    each a whispered confession, 
          unspoken prayers of my soul
    paper cathedrals
          built on the fault line of my heart.

     small, papery ghosts, haunted by the weight
           of unspoken things~
     each a brittle testament, 
           a love that breathes only in the amber of my memory.

     each one unfolded
           read in the stillness of lunar milk.
     each page I lift,
           the moonlight dissects each I’m sorry

     each one swirls in specks of dust 
          where your absence hangs. 
              I see your ghost in every autumn leaf. 
                  I remember our nights on sheets of *white satin. 

Silence and regret are suffocating me. 
     Come home… 
          he rewrites in paragraphs
               …till dawn bleeds gray.

Sharing With My Mother

The more I try to reassure my mother,
The more she suspects...

The concerns and cares I shoulder,
I conceal and collect.

Her ears keen to the notes I offer,
My anxiety she dissects.

Taking on more as I grow older,
Less her fear affects.

Understanding her and less eager,
I share all; she accepts, connects.

Loneliest Existence

With the sun in the forceps 
Of an ageless night, 
The bells at the lighthouse toll 
Until they are merely sterile 
Breaths.  
Occasionally, a ghostly whisper 
Validates and dissects 
Each tear, each truth. 
I can't imagine their loneliness- 
watching light burn 
Until it is as small as a flea, 
While we endure engulfed 
In light, 
Principals of refuge 
And shadow.


Premium Member Hope Resonates

Youth, eager to ignite passion's flame;
does not stop and question if love is true.
For their need to belong outweighs their fears;
a desire so strong it's hard to ignore.

Lovers blinded by the aura of love;
shun all reason as feelings zero in.
For fantasies and possibilities;
tickle libidos, muting silent screams.

Doubt dissects dreams with a scalpel of truth,
as reality tears your world apart.
And your heart bears the scars of betrayal;
inflicted by promises, rife with lies.

The pain that love inflicts is troublesome,
debatably, more to shun than embrace.
And yet, under the surface of mistrust,
hope resonates with the beat of your heart.

Premium Member Cold Coffee

He slowly sips every drop whilst he dissects the morning news
Coagulating cream congeals in his china cup
Coffee coloured rings form with every sip
If the cup was a tree I could tell its age

Written from observing a local man in our local coffee shop
He sits for hours reading the newspaper for free and makes his coffee last...

Dead

Dead


Dead person does not harm 
Or love any one
Why people scare of them!
After death

Surgeon knows dead person 
Does not oppose
While dissects corpse

Difference between the dead
And slept is
One can speak
Another cannot.

All know this irony fact
Even cannot trust in that

Like in cinema role remains apart
People in life perform vast
With a fact along belief of act

Thus the life rolls on rolls on 
Until fate defaces task

So in time keep with tact of nature 
And forget to fear with dying act

Surgeon knows dead person
Does not oppose 
While he dissects corpse.

God: Is the Source

 

GOD: IS THE SOURCE OF THE PLANET AND THE COURSE
THE STRENGTH ABSORBED, CIRCULATED IS THE HARDEST FORCE
PROCEEDED THOUGHTS LIKE OCEAN AND RIVER FLOWS
TO REACH THE HEIGHT OF SUCCESS AND LIFE’S LOWS

KNOWLEDGE IS WISDOM SHEARED
AND WISDOM IS KNOWLEDGE UTILIZED
AS THE WISE SEE WITH ALL EYES
BUT VISUALIZE THE TRUTH
THAT THE BLIND CANNOT SEE
WHAT THE DEF CAN TELL
SO RING THE BELL OF TRUTH
THAT THE STRENGTH OF ONE MAN
NEEDED TO MOVE ANOTHER
IS GREATER IN A POET
BECAUSE HE CAN MOVE A CROWD
AND I’M BOUND TO READ
THE RELATIONS OF REVELATIONS
BE CAUSE THE CONNOTATIONS IN ME
SEES THESE PRACTICALLY
THE HOLY TRINITY DISSECTS THE EARTH EVENLY
THESE ARE THE HARDEST FORCES
OF THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE
SO ACKNOWLEDGE THE TRUTH AND WISDOM
THIS BOOK DOES ENCOURAGE
THE PACKAGE?
ARE PROCEEDED THOUGHTS OF THE BOOK OF AGES
WHERE DEATH’S RAGE IS PAID AS WAGES
TILL THE LAST STAGES:
WHERE THE HEIGHT OF SUCCESS AND LOWS
FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE LIKE YOUR WIFE
IS YOUR PARTNER IN THE WAY OF LIVING
THE B. I. B. L. E. IS THE BOOK YOU SHOULD BE
BREATHING!!

GOD: IS THE SOURCE OF THE PLANET AND THE COURSE
THE STRENGTH ABSORBED, CIRCULATED IS THE HARDEST FORCE
PROCEEDED THOUGHTS LIKE OCEAN AND RIVER FLOWS
TO REACH THE HEIGHT OF SUCCESS AND LIFE’S LOWS

Orb of the First Dynasty, Queen Merneith,

Scattering spellbound in search of this utopia
Minds-eye in shortfall dissects one's monopoly
Through no choice of own approach it sloppily,
Exude to a position such promised, Ethiopia-

As the diminishing dream on landscapes ensemble  
The probate illusion of Queen of Egypt's daughter
Who proceeds through this escapade of slaughter
And who am I forgiving one or either? I tremble.

Having reached two thousand years without absorb
Of having travelled miles, indeed was bronze;
Such ghastly size these statues, long lost sons
With indications seen through my crystal orb.

Precious filling educated, siphoning the syllable
Retracted.., words of larger scale were of faith
Those who muttered sounding, Queen Merneith,
-Alluring dynasties as Anedjib's was, as a fable-

Engulfed over as subsidiary benefactors cannibal
Over some archaeological find, for at the centre,
No godly size can interpret that this magenta,
Haze of gross sufficient was the alluring spectacle.

Expedient gauge eclipse this as the inferno; 
And making this voyage with the help of a globule, 
Whose crystal awareness has forgotten the rule, 
That language hosts devise quoted, 'quid pro quo'.

Synonym Pt 2

I resume being paused as my mind dissects the vernacular,
Is continuing to think, a symptom of strength?
I chuckle as I sit befuddled,
With a constant struggle between this or that...
Yes or maybe,
As a baby, knowledge of strength was passively instilled in me,
Watching my mother produce more out of nothing than I could out of something...
But my eyes remain fixed on power lifting,
Awkward body shifting,
As he lifts a ton, perfectly balancing the mass,
Which pushes me to ask,
Are my mother and the lifter somehow in relation?
If so this equation, or rather expression's direction is pointed away from my mother,
For she is greater than he...
He lifts, then pushes, then rests, i guess...
Since the first push of birth not only has my mother lifted,
But for 18 years she carried and balanced a household and 3 lives,
So no matter how hard you strive to convince me,
It's simply impossible to drown in a glass of water,
When my mother treads water in the pacific,
And because of her treading, I now have a boat,
And hope does float...
I guess Webster was just trying to save time...

Premium Member The Instigator

The instigator relates, we cheer.
Deflates nay Sayers
The instigator retraced all fears
Detest all stares
The instigator dissects dialect
The instigator obliges his faith
What phase? The instigator 
Emblazed freeze gaze.
Counsels full LAWS.
Legal eagle at the cause.
The instigator  has
 FAME No game.
The instigator takes flight 
Ignites surprise
Do fly red eye
Nice GUY  GOOD GUY

Premium Member In An Instant


The incisive probe of insight
dissects my life’s stratum of delusion, 
the shards of shattered pretense 
scatter as discarded debris, 
the mind reminds itself to forget.

The blizzard of discontent blows,
my desolate heart turns 
into a tree defoliated in wasteland,
far away from verdant thicket.
The sunburst day fades out fast, 
dusk envelopes the twilight sky.  

I don’t forget that the sun sinks
to rise again with resurrected radiance.
I wait for the heavenly hues of the new sun 
to suffuse me with the gleam of sanguinity,
when from the dust of distress
I felt the Phoenix, concealed within so long, 
rise in an instant for metamorphosis
in the divine dawn of regeneration.

A Wondering Eye

Belaboring visions so mundane,
a neurotic mind desperately dissects their simplicities
to the verge of lunacy.
Searching for answers to endless queries,
every banal image becomes an elaborate quest
as this thirst absorbs all rationality.
Frame after frame stored in limbo
until each pixel is analyzed for its significance.
Serenity grates this phobia of delusion,
this obsession of one’s visions.
The restlessness of it all brings on insomnia,
which leads to further dementia.
A coup de grace is contemplated,
but its reality lacks fruition,
for it too necessitates reason.
The normality’s of our days
languish in those with a wondering eye.
