Best Impute Poems

July 29, 1890

Colored daubs and swatches
crave artist’s practiced hand.
Justice, nearly blind, yet watches—
unwrought art upon a stand.

Regard the brushes in a row—
the palettes and the sponges.
Genius maimed by status quo,
vain a hope that fate expunges.

Guttered myriad lifelong dreams—
in desperate ruination.
Fading now the piteous screams
of self-inflicted...

I sense and feel mystique of its appeal
In vibrant, verdant, blossoming spring,
Splendorous prairies undulating breeze,
Resplendent falling of autumnal leaves,
Glacial winds bemoaning a frozen sigh,
A cerulean terpsichore of ocean tides~
I sense and feel, yet can’t cage its wings.

Purposeful, evocative, musings unwind
When elixir of missives invigorates mind
In...

Don't fall through the cracks,
through the floorboards
past the pipes
hot water hissing
grey metallic stun gun dull.
Don't land on the basement steps,
slipping on down
bumping the back bone
breaking the fall
with your body gone white like you know it so well.
Don't let the swallow of house
and of home
consume you
in...

I'm writing on the first page.
I love the concord and quiet at my age.
The morning came from a genius mage.
In my spirit, I am searching for the truth stage.
To understand things to resist this upsurge.
It is secured with the vibration of the exchange.
Same as waves,...

Nine A.M. one Tuesday morning,
     	there’s a constant steady stream,
     	when a bell tolls out to summon,
     	those kids in uniforms of green.

     	This local Catholic College,

Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin."Romains 4:8

a blessed person in the eyes of God, 
most evil people count the blessing of the Lord
             in the physical things they have and 
forgetting the heavy luggage of sins 
                         which they...

Part One

“Apart from its popular conception of transmigration, (which is) sometimes almost humouristic, Manimekhalai offers a documentary contribution of immense value, under an easily accessible form, on the philosophical speculations of Ancient India.
The cosmology of Sankya, the scientism of Vaisheshika, the logic of Nyaya, the...

After My Death
by Chaim Nachman Bialik
translation by Michael R. Burch

Say this when you eulogize me:

Promises 






Your promises that I had all trust in
lay quiet as logs of unbreathing woods,
Till wantings of my soul rose as fierce storms
to impute life into the forgotten,
Today you walk with me in moonlit night
as longings lay absolutely tranquil.

I twist my speech to seem, and be, as white and spotless bone.
Silence 'flecting, like a mirror, on the wall to show
man, so hypocrite and liar. This is who we are.
Man! The curse of sin has brought you far,
into the pits of lusting pyre. Engulf...

An old man arose as most often do
    in a state of tension and stress.
To the bathroom he ran... or was it the loo,
    his bladder he had to address.

The old man was tired as he had slept not...

Beyond the Heart, the Head and the Soul reigns unsulleable Belief 

How he blurted in a moment of self-lacerating glory-be pique
Who will in a thousand years retrieve my poems from digital rot
A thousand years grind grim in fermenting ocean-filth freak
Rather think in terms of a...

I don’t always know the road to take
Many times, I feel like a plain fake
I don’t always know just what to pray
So that God’s grace will not delay
I don’t always know how to give praise
Even though His love will always amaze

My heart is not as...

May the beneficent and infinitely omnipotent
Name of Jesus Christ the Son of God
Eternally impute blessings lofty and  abundant
Upon the blessed memory and legacy so bold,
Of my beloved dad, revered and eminent,
Reverend Samson  Singi who when seventy years old
Was called to be with his...
