The Empirical Veneers of Decency and Acceptance
The Empirical Veneers of Decency and Acceptance

It’s funny how perceived intelligence 
Is not necessarily a measure of true smarts 
How the genius, the barrister and the eloquent 
Can miss the point from the very start 

It’s quite bemusing to observe her lack of self-awareness
And confusing...

Premium Member Empirical Deceitfulness
Written: December 29, 2023 
            ___________________________________________

Mahogany motionless shadows
cast by deceitful sun,
a caterwaul unravels,
coeval betrayal
voice beckons glimpses 
—of anguish
within the heart loci,
once pure and corpulent,
now rapt by crestfallen darkness,
bereavement blight.
synchronous with aquifers
Interfluve ferri-crete... 
desultory. 

A...

Empirical Data Horn Haiku
Empirical Data Horn Haiku 

If empirical
Could data be lyrical
And hysterical?

Jim Horn 

Figure that one out. I haven't yet....

Empirical Metaphysical Friends
Empirical Metaphysical Friends 

An observable place in space and time is mine
Empirical reason shines in solid form on me
On the other hand
Not so tangible
Above the fray of ordinary life
Beyond all nature or just above it
Somewhere out of sight but not of thinking
Metaphysical formulas come in...

Empirical, Actual and Real
Empirical, Actual and Real

Trump never heard of  anything empirical;
He is very verbose about it and hysterical;
Well defined;
Not his mind,
And missing in vocabulary is actual and real.

Jim Horn

I think all that Trump is doing is providing
a tinsey iddy bitty more information from
his tinsey iddy bitty...

Empirical Waste
This land of entitlement 
entertainment and enterprise 
lost burnt broken...despised 
skeletal structures reaching 
griping 
clutching 
scraping this infernal sky!

Arcane factories sit on horizons 
haunted like houses 
remains of Man, remains insane 
burning, cursing some 

American empirical waste, mad!
napalm fields where embers of pyres that rage...

EMPIRICAL FEELINGS

intangible mysteries
  so expressive
  a  dimension
of
sentiment
 subjective sensation
        paradoxically
essential
to temperament
present
a
different challenge
in the cultural climate

a permanence
espoused
  that overshadows
a sensation of life
perhaps a
pretext
  deeply sublimatd
a
perfected vision
circulated
  emotive in potential
imparted
by
rhythmic intervals
  in  permeated spheres

a
strangeness
to meld
its inimical essence
so
essential to temperament
giving
    a permanence
 unique  to identity
 in
a
 network
or a connection
with
perceived
  sympathy

an  ornamentation
pursued
to
   explicate priority
& formulate 
  the search

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by...

Premium Member Empirical Eyes
(6)
With empirical eyes
I spied my demise
All bludgeoned and bloody was I
As if from a dream
Demons in eye
Came to claim my remains
My soul came willing
My soul came quick
Imprisoned by chains
My body was sick
From years of good living
I puked like a brick
They dragged me along
And tortured me...

Premium Member Reasoned Studied Empirical
I came to faith at forty-eight,
a mid-life crisis within my mind,
step-by-step a staircase I climbed,
'til I keft my old life behind;
Off the fence I slithered down,
upon my brow,doubt bears no frown,
each question answered,verified,
no blind faith this,with no place to hide;
Reasoned,studied and empirical
a life-style relevant and...

Empirical
Rare forms blare 
into the empirical hot sun.

Each traced in fire,
each outlined by the crystal 
shimmer of the son.

Haloed in glamour
A play of color.

Of One.

Layers of imagery in rare forms
Dare to stare, brilliant! 

Into the heliosphere 
crystalline forms 
of pure white energy, 
rare oblique symmetry....

Empirical
Filled us with your miracles
My Father permits to see
Depth of the sea kept within me
Looked far ahead
Carefully wiped each tear that was shed
Resumed by peace
Kept far beneath
World you closely inspect
Your tears we respect
Your eagle did soar
Your lion has roared
Our King is eternal
Conquored the infernal
Seeing where...

Imperical Vs Empirical
Philosephers have asked the question
"What happens when an unstoppable object
is aimed at an unmoveable object?" 
Many years I have looked at the intention
of content looking for answers what it meant
wondered what conflict
could bring such an event
where only gods could contend
and cause a decent
stretching the limits...
