Best Freighted Poems
Gone But Not ForgottenTrills tumble through an air long silenced
warbled melodies enlighten the palate
whistles delight but fly off to the thistle
freighted by the frigid speak
amongst the downturn of the day
where blue skies lost their way
Memories of warm caresses
sing along in forgotten dreams
eclipsed heat of destiny

The Soul never sleeps
battered and lonely, the lesson
Life spent in The Hard Sell
Soft-served you become
melting Insomnia
mouth sucking a loaded gun
blue ribbonned and veined
pulsing electricity
from heart to lung to brain
you’re a free bird
flying high two crimes
now swallows two minds
You converse smoothly
while...

Two Little BoysTwo little boys lost in the woods.
Two little boys trying to get home, only if they could.
Two little boys were freighted by things that went bump in the night.
Two little boys prayed for daylight.
Two little boys heard the search party coming.
Two little boys begin...

Spiritedly Distilling Social GracesPuberty set off affright
seeding decades long
terrestrial space flight
freighted existential blight,
wherefore from that
attempt to live airtight
many scores yesternight
ago, I barely (except
on par with grateful
dead), zero excite
ment minimally functioned,

The prints of feet on rocks were wonders and arts as the birth of mankind will start the earthly theater display

Midsummer Night's Eve StrollAn evening stroll, on Midsummer Night's Eve ,
under the silver light of the horizon moon.
Life that burst among a small acreage,
of old-growth forests, flourished.
A delightful flurry of fireflies, drifting,
twinkle among the foliage, an amazing sight.
Echoing sounds moan through bough
and leaves disturbed the night grew cold...

Blurred VisionI wake up but I can't see
Everything is blurry
Life is not what it used to be
Beyond the silence a little girl cries
As all faith is taken
Broken into piece's, never to be found
He taste's her innocence along the softness of...

Sunset“Sunset”
The silhouette of beauty passes by my aching head
Eyes strain to keep it within my vision but lose it in the darkness
My fingers try to grasp the ghostly image but to no avail
I am left standing in the circle of nothingness alone and afraid
Bewildered by...

SacramentThe crumb of bread I lift to lips
Is freighted in my fingers.
I squeeze it hard lest it slips
Reclaiming a past that lingers.
'Tis a weighty rite to partake
Tokens of His riven frame.
Freely given for our sake
Oft taken lightly to our shame.
Christ's counsel the priest voices
Imploring us...

How Are YouThe formality of it stings.
“How are you?”
Delivered with a self-conscious courtesy and
a poverty of emotion
calculated to immediately keep
me at arm’s length,
fencing herself in.
There was a time when this
same greeting would
have been prefixed with a
velvet-soft “hey” and saturated with
a low hum...

I Still Feel Under the Weather Today April 2nd, 2023I still feel under the weather today April 2nd, 2023
Unseen enemy invades my body

Hib bully knock and sock kin me

Snow-BlissWhat perfect desolation
Walking the north flank of Mount Muir
Through a corridor of towering pines
Freighted with new snow,
When the slightest pulse of wind
Sends an ice-dust
Down the ladder of branches
To where I stand exhilirated
As it crosses my cheek...

Done FightingLike a mystical wight,
Ain't in a trance,
Nor experiencing delusions and phantasmagoria.
I live. I fight,
Fighting
Because the decision to be free
Is that which I took freely,
Yet, criticized with unsparing vigor,
Cruel and baseless calumnies.
The past is gone,
The future is a dream,
All I got is now and only now,
Enormities...

A Perfect GoodbyeEven though, perhaps, tomorrow,
As a concerto of Violins is departing along the clock,
My green leaves will shine away under any morning's sun.
My love will be delicate, sweet, like a red apple,
While I, walking back and forth, with my fallen arms in this dimly
Room...
