Best Dwell Poems

It has been one hell of a year for him,
so much denial
when propelled into the future
being he was forewarned as a youth,
‘it’s no fun becoming old’ by those
he would mimic as clowns
and now he, bemused while
floating within the mire of his misunderstanding.
There are reasons he...

How long will this dreary night go on
Seems years since the dawn of morn
Why does anxiety keep me awake
What is this burden I cannot shake

Heartbeats too fast within my breast
Too quickly to grant needed rest
There's no moon above to cast light
This crepuscule gives birth to...

Under the awaking dawn
I sit, tracing the sea's yawn
Of innumerable sand grains,
Swell waves without reins.

Light scattering, exciting risin
Reflections off the horizon
The lull breeze caress silence
Like your arms once presence

Held me tightly in its embrace.
Tho, I still, you I chase.

Bragging to the stars I dwell
The last...

(5 Words to Dwell Upon)

Though once I was homeless, 
 Twas my diagnosis,
 That I might once again rise form the ashes like the phoenix.

Though did I rise again,
 Twas more like a butterfly,
 Lifting itself from a dandelion after a long respite.

WHERE NO ILLUSIONS DWELL

The world has spun out of it's axis.
Gibraltar is crumbling down below.
Sequential order
Scattered to the four winds;
E n v e l o p e d 
In the conflagration of chaos.
Oh, trouble... 
Once again, you greet me 
From the stygian abyss.
You beckon from the hopeless place...

My mind dwells in a magical place of tranquillity
where I ride on carpets of love 
my thoughts in spheres of wholesomeness
Cylindrical upright tunes echo through valleys of angelic light
Their high pitched praises as the gentle breeze from their motioned wings sooth my soul
A fever of...

I know you love many things, 
You need a lot of them, 
Large, Broad, wide, vast, 
Diverse, smooth and sublime.

Like every life
You also need a space
Boundless, 
like the vast expanses 
Of the boundless sky
over the desert
In the moonlit night.


In my heart, 
A desert without you...

In The Pantry Where Secrets Dwell
A story now I’ll softly tell.
Of moments lost to time’s embrace,
And passions found in hidden space.

A touch of hard, cool, and wet,
A memory of joy I won't forget.
With every glide, with every thrust,
It wakes the senses and stirs up lust.

I dwell in lonely plains among hills -
whole, with a cloudless sky over our heads
A green veil and a path of yellow jonquils
Encircling a few slow-paced windmills,
Where melancholy seldom treads,
 
Allow me to gather the midday shadow
Then borrow ashen leaves on the loam
pillowed between lodging...

Deep Within This Shallow Vessel I Dwell

 Loud thunder wakes me, epic pain aches me
 deep within this shallow vessel I dwell.
 Waiting harvest of that blessed fruit tree
 sending gift of glorious heaven or fiery hell.

 No atonement can replace that gift so freely...

I dwell in a pretty home
Filled with fragrant emotions 
Beautiful days pass as foam
Endearing enchants our fashions. 

Home of ours, built with hopes
To dine without any unpleasant worries
Every brick earned of hardest sweat
Tied us with love, without wearies.

Sand and bricks blended with water
To give life...
