Premium Member On Diversity and Divisiveness
Here appears diversity and divisiveness --
Similar words with different meanings,
I must not allow them to come between
Those folks who exhibit different leanings.

Diversity is a good thing, expanding my mind
Divisiveness frequently foments contention,
While it seeks to enforce its firm beliefs
Often giving no opposing views attention.

Diversity must...

The View From Where I Stand
I’ve an anger which cannot be hidden!
A burning passion that comes unbidden!
My Soul desolated with grievous rage,
reacts with furious justified outrage!

Occasioned by the offences of ignorance,
bigotry, discrimination and intolerance!
Though evil are the ravages of vandalism,
they pale to the magnitude of racialism!

Colour, creed, even the shape...

Premium Member The Axis of Time
The axis of time foments rage,
And eats freely of cloth.
Even better days will wilt,
Crying, What else comes hither?

The snow on the mountain
Is frozen now, but soon will melt.
The days lengthen like shadows
	in the evening.

Time moves on eating as leprosy, 
Fomenting trouble upon the unwary.
Post haste,...

The Five Senses
Start

I have eyes that cannot see
The beautiful world around me
The kaleidoscope which life wears
To display happiness and conceal tears.

I have ears that cannot hear
The music of life everywhere
The notes of the piano, the song of the bird
The cacophony that becomes awfully weird.

I have a nose...

Hurricane Harvey Landfall August 27th 2017
This long time doodling Yankee

   upon swath of topography to see
and hear flora and fauna over run 
   via industrialization he doth experience pity
sympathy, humanity deafening cacophony undermining

Slumber of the Wooly Mammoth
For eons the Wooly Mammoth slumbers, deep in his impatient sleep
Restless beneath his brilliant blanket of Artic Ice.
Neath the timeless tundra you can hear him weep.
Memory is a thunderstorm raging in the caverns of his mind
Frozen in the inexorable blue glacier of his torment,
Grinding down...

The Final Story

A ragged rhapsody ruminates in relentless repetition as the fathomless

fugitive foments fearful fragmentation thus ethereal eternity engulfs

egregious expropriation of quietus’s quiver quaking querulous quickstep’s

quest when stories surreptitiously seep silently seduced by savourless sadness

27th March 2018

Written for all my friends who suffer from depression...

Autumn
Lazy clouds, dark and oozy,
Smother alpine views,
Wet with the residue of
Convection, as autumn
Scrapes the senses.

I love the dancing light,
Landscapes brought to life,
Skies blow by and
Nature yawns, fertile,
Ripe and exhausted.

The womb is full, fetal
Folklore foments us
With bounty, beauty,
Bird songs sung by all,
On the glorious path…...

Premium Member Son To Mother
Since the day I was conceived, her delicate hands have held me. 
Since the day I was created, her hands floated my first endeavor. 
At the point when the tears started to rain, her hands covered me. 
She has made it a priority to facilitate...

Conduit
It’s an uneasy distress
that foments inside of you
A boiling primal urge you have
to lash out and attack
Angry words of distrust and hatred,
born from years of suffering past abuse
Now you wanna empty yourself,
pour all your anguish and grief inside of me
But, I cannot allow this spiritual...

Premium Member A Quiet Christmas Eve
I shall enjoy the quiet of this Christmas Eve
Reminiscing about Christmases past,
Thinking about a lost love that will cleave
The heart, but memories do last and last.

Remembering those most treasured moments
I shall enjoy the quiet of this Christmas Eve
For tomorrow the danger of a war foments
And...
