Shadows of midnight
In the dark valley of black.
Grim garden growing....

her eyes are gray, foreboding
reflecting the wrath of Zeus
yet therein lies the charm of Hera
who silences Olympian thunderbolts
she is sharing a tenebrous introspect
the smile withdrawn, judgmental thought
an ego that must be fed, expense of others
aloofness brings happiness no more
i am lost in the beauty of...

Introduction

From the city on the river
Where the Sage of Monticello
And the Great Emancipator
Birthed the country, saved the nation,
Sounds a call for civil discord
In the service of ambition
From a man whose God is power,
And his name is Demagogia.

Gathering Storm

To the banner flock his minions:
Come the vengeful,...

why does the wind whisper
foreboding?
and the sky bid gloom upon me
though the sea has no love either
she holds back the ill tide of noon
warns me to seek high ground soon
though the earth tells me neither
of the flower embraced bee
still I wonder as I am plodding
why...

Melancholy  searches of our patches
impending death imminenting danger
ecstatic of tomorrow we sold desolated
Our heart beat no more bathos of hope
the family bell summond us no more
our spirits haunting and hunting of a land
which no indigene of optimism stay...
The strange cry, the empty look-
The stream-of-no-consciousness...

There is a rumbling and a rustling
Tummults are swelling

There is a stench of it coming from the ground
Beneath it is smoldering and bubbling and gurgling.

There is a change coming
Not sure what it entails

I hear many things from many peoples
No one is certain, yet certain it...

Tightened muscles tweak foreboding trills marking his silence

while aches of shrill shadows pit my paled bravado against loud fears -

my love etched heart would bear any truth hit to free us both.

Ominous Foreboding Augurs...

Innocuously incubated kindled
imperceptible dire strait
restlessness like tinder
with pinterest Deutsche agitate
barreling like a freight
train running so much
faster than an eight
track uber twittering,

rumbling, quickening and inculcate
dissension among dissolute
rabble rousers, who
do obediently initiate
rank and file will not abate,
boot re:reed out (bus) soon,
thence coalesces into ablegate
insidious encroachments

Nuclear churning....

The dark may provide some comfort
Tragically it can feel safe and well known
Because beneath the gloomy clouds of ignorance and fear
We’re convinced, there’s really no need to truly know

Certitudes majestically flourish
Illusions manifest and begin to take hold
The seeking conformation of our cherished beliefs
Exposes the credulity...

Death burns 
holes in my mortal heart—
I am not opposed to it 
yet I detest how it looms over 
everything and everyone 
I love. 

How I cringe 
thinking about how 
in this lifetime I will 
face more absences,
more voids, more tears.

It is the 
foreboding of...

Scintilla experienced an eerie foreboding
the house at 125 Klondike Street felt unsafe
she sensed that it had brought doom to occupants
she was shaking her head no when her husband said “we’ll take it.”

She took him aside and explained her feelings, but he would not budge.
Something about...

Once upon a Monday manic morning I awoke in panic,
Panic with foreboding wrapped, into a world of troubles trapped,
I felt distinctly I’d been slapped, and from my bed of warmth been torn,
My eyes went wide, I cried and cried, that manic morn when I was...

They walk towards me
and away
from left to right,
right to left,
creating foreboding, in silence.

It happens every time
like images of rhyme,
visible silent words -
right to left, left to right
at night towards me and away -
creating that foreboding.

I know they'll be here,
in this shortcut,
the way I take to...
