Best Inextricable Poems

Oh! How like you, I long to be a singing lark
Who in the blue firmament like a tiny speck
Remains invisible, drowning the air in music sweet
Rising higher and darting up with movements slick

In our ears, your song falls like peals of chiming bells
In clear crystalline...

A broken shell, a living hell, and all I'm left with now is my regret. 

Better days ahead were a pipedream after our relationship crumbled. Countless arguments. Disagreements. Every day! For my life, I can't believe we stayed together as long as we did. God...

Forever forgive me
For my one and only iniquity
Please forgive me
With forbearance eternally

Lots of anger and lust
Got a hold of me…
So, I must...oh, I must…
Set my soul free

Forever forgive me
Determine my footsteps to the light
Emotionally unhappy
Intervene in my life with utter delight

Acknowledge me please for trying...

Now, Drink My Dear

I saw the answer in your eyes.
Before the question was asked. 
Deepest hurt, pooled in your eyes.
And streamed down your face in tears.  
The silence was deafening.  
How could Life be so inextricable?  
Two hearts in fragments with no...

In this cluttered attic of my mind,
I harbor so many memories of Daddy.
The ones that make me smile
and those that hurt are inextricable.

Love is to inner peace
What seed, soil, sun
Is to the plant: vital.

Love is a sea, a vast sea,
The limitless horizon its limit,
The blue azure sky its lid.

Love is a sea, a deep sea,
The bottomless abyss its floor.

Love is a vast sea
Love is a deep sea
With...

While the church of today continues to wrestle with prominent issues,
like those of leadership, moral credibility, or fidelity of her members;
society remains critical to address certain weakpoints already at hand,
those seeming endless lawsuits against the clergy and religious members.

Moments in time unfold the wreckage of...

BLACK IS NOT NEGATIVE--

And just what is blackness;
And why is it colourless
And what is blackness
Nothing
Zero a non-hero
Empty
Not whole
Nothing
Darkness
And what is blackness;
Color wash in the dark
Color lost 
The property 
Quality of being black in color.
Complete darkness;
The absence of any light.
" plunged into pitch blackness"
Belonging to human...

The dawn makes fools of us all.
It fills us half full like open barrel drums
left out in the rain. There's no excuse,
except to say: we stand
among crystalline mist, the yawning light
teasing us to immortality. We prune angels
with gravel and future memories in our pockets,
like poltergeist...

In this cluttered attic of my mind,
I harbor so many memories of Daddy.
The ones that make me smile
and those that hurt are inextricable.

He was hard on my siblings and me.
Oh, he was never physical, but his words
often made us wish for the belt instead.

How many...

Podcast lesson (re)learned today...

(May 6,2020) for umpteenth time,
no deliberate attempt to rhyme
rather to express satisfying reason
incalculable absolute value prime

Fresh animal tracks thru equa door
gave urge right of way
plethora experiencing cuteness

Foolishly I acted in her presence
 After she left me ,realised her essence
  
an inextricable thread got removed, now my world looks palid
She embellished my life, like veggies to a salad


For she was the one guiding me when my mother wit crumbled
And now she...

Night

Darkness enveloped me in an impenetrable, sinister pall,
A fathomless, murky expanse, an impregnable wall.
I tried in vain to come out of it, but I tried and tried in vain,
It held me in an inextricable grip, an inescapable looming bane.

I heard the sonorous cricket chirp from...

Two hearts met:
“firecrackers,” they said,
nearly six months apart,
‘works right from the start.
like rockets, their feet
shot off from the ground,
the sound most spectacular
a feat fated
for inextricable hearts.
Catherine wheels
connected for life, with
sparkler hands,
and of course,
she labored
with their firstborn
on Labor Day
and their youngest
inclined to kiss Christmas.

The world is spinning with the force of the universe as my heart lay open to its gravity and commotion of it.  I'm racing to the winds of butterflies swirling in the cavity of my "self".  Tis' not the sun but some inextricable...
