Best Equivocation Poems

POTD 7 Oct 2020

Step ever so light
Into this treacherous night
Creatures that abandon the day
come out to play

Hear those June winds howl
To the hoot of an owl
the candle flame flickers
' forewarned is forearmed'
There is corruption at play
In this treacherous night

Step ever so light,
ever so light
The long...

Stands on the land of heterodox
Who's the mightiest God of all?
People live and die on their equivocation thoughts

Those who exclaimed about the God who never fall
Inversely proportional to what they always do
Who's the mightiest God of all?

Seekers, believers, heathens and philosophers with their point of...

...for Carson McCullers
           

Terse language 
scored to the bone 
with no leftovers;
pouring sorrow into 
every crucial word 
without a shred of platitude.

She faced her ghosts
with grace and fortitude,
placing hope and loss
in perfect symmetry,
embracing solitude.

Straight to...

THANKFUL

I am thankful for many things
Unlocking universal truths of life’s journey
we all share 
Shared experiences that make me feel connected,
less alone and isolated
In all earnesty
My heart is content with all I have,  
this and nothing more
A want for nothing
I confess lack of anything does...

It has always been my naïve, farm-boy assumption,
That one attends college to attain a degree of gumption!

And furthermore that Daddy sends his kid to college,
Not so much to party but to obtain a modicum of knowledge!

I assume that the autocrats who abide in Washington D.C.,
Have...

ENCHANT ME!
(A Contemporary Animist’s Prayer) 

To the shared breath of life:

Enchant me!
Whisper to me in the cadence and rhymes, 
the deeper susurrations of this tellurian realm
with its numinous places that already call out
my name!
Talk to me about my mother and father and
the wonderful moment that...

I marvel at your balance,
And how firm your buttocks be, 
Seated on a narrow perch,
With cheeks so splinter-free.

You never make your mind up,
That is no easy task!
And dodge every question,
No matter what is asked,

You’ve mastered indecision,
You’re an expert of unsure,
You understand the points against,
As well...

...for Carson McCullers


Terse language scored to the bone   
with naught leftover, 
truth suffusing every word 
without a shred of platitude.

She faced her ghosts with fortitude,
hope and loss a perfect blending.
Straight to the point she spoke her mind,
no careless gesture or equivocation....

We haven't met for a long time 
Accidentally in the road, 
Our hands touched each other.

We exchanged some phrases: 
What brought you, here? 
- In equivocation smile - 

Said: What brought 'you', here? 
- What do you suggest! 
- Let’s take a walk. 

I said:...

The Cinematic Film Treatment as a stand alone element 
in the aesthetic revolution we are now not witnessing

Unforgotten Lacerations 

A pataphysical circus of visual elements, possibly comprehensible depending upon one's ideological orientation or level of pre-programmed self-inhibition, as a product of The Secret Alliance of...

Today I have been comparing and contrasting Bernie Sander's and Donald Trump's political and economic motives
for seeking their respective Party nominations.

Senator Sanders and Chief Corporate Executive Officer Trump
began with intent to become The Nominee,
we might presume.
But is that it?
What would a win mean exactly
for our...

I see the light approaching,
The earth is rumbling
And the wind is too strong...


I know,
Your momentum is great,
My question left no traction
For equivocation...


Be swift,
If you must blow me away,
Remove me completely
From the ground's attachment...


But, if your breath is sweet,
Kiss me a thousand times
And I will raise...
