Premium Member Cain's Exile of Inherent Beingness
Mark

The earth turns its face from you
as if ashamed. You
who tilled the soil, now marked
by what the soil received.
Your brother's blood—
how it murmurs, how it screams.
Deafness would be a mercy.

Wanderer

At Babel, you watch them build
their tongues a discordance of hope.
You know better.
The tower falls. Always,...

Inherent Swimming
Stepping past the crater towards your door,
     I am reminded of warm days
surrendered in flowery abandon while
     brushing against cool veins of
leafy promise, requiring only the slightest
     compassion for the flow of life.

The scope of our crusade sings bitter,
     like absinthe in a Fanta bottle;
tangs of anise and wormwood...

Inherent Temperament
Don't be so tortured, passion.

Don't be so metal rimmed in servitude
to all that's over the top and brimming with enigma's breath
Don't be the pump of blood adrenaline
on all the days one might have called
the moon out on her day of death.

Don't be so riddled, passion.

Don't...

Premium Member Inherent Energy
Trains, planes and automobiles all require fuel
But the best form of transportation was a gift from God
Clad in socks, abused on jogs, squeezed into heels
When it comes to moving people, let's give feet the nod

Energy is something we had, not purchased
So let's take a few...

The Inherent Corruptibility of Communication
in every serious human idea 
 presented to the world as an engagement with it
 there is an unavoidable lacking in meaning
 which becomes left behind in the womb
        like a stillborn freak of words 
 sticking in...

Inherent Abilities
He awakened each morning-
  To the winnowing train whistle,
    And the glowing appearance of a day-
     Undeniably fitting of summer;
       The heavens yet lingered pink,

Premium Member Dismissing Inherent Sin Why We Kill
re-pot inspired by Debbie's contest

Dismissing evil and good
Upright and smiling he stood;
Materialistically modern in mood
Filled full with rationalist food;
Denying inherent sin
Liberally enlighten within.

Dismissing evil and good
Puffed-up self approving he stood
Pursuing illusory appeal
With academic assumptions so unreal;
Denying inherent sin
So liberally enlightened within.

Dismissing evil and good
All-seeing,all-knowing he...

Combatting Inherent Bias
This poetic attempt an abbreviation
how biological insemination
(minus in vitro fertilization)
seeds latent *****sapiens reproduction
possibly since moment of conception,
whereby inchoate progeny

impossible to sustain
fantastic, holistic, terrific... weatherization
against prejudicial germs
that elude uterine infiltration
entering womb thru fallopian tube,
or courtesy external drive

re: environmental perturbation
microscopically initiating
biological emancipation

Premium Member Inherent Sound
A soft, lilting voice is heard long away.
Does it stand as an intrinsic mound sound?
If I'm not pleased, I'm a shameful display.
A soft, lilting voice is heard long away.
Is your igniting more brainy in some way?
Do you fear that your goals will not be found?
A soft,...

Completely Inherent
Completely Inherent

Have you ever been at Ben Ghazi before?
So you can see what they have in store
Republicans reduced all funds spent there
After having an attitude of We Don't Care.

Then to the delight of a Hilary dame
She ends up getting all of the blame
For now only...

Declarant Is Apparend and Inherent
Declarant Is Apparend and Inherent

People proved by always being apparent,
Decided that all their rights are declarant;
Abnormal behavior,
Never your savior;
If an insidious idiot it surely is inherent.
