A Tulip Grows Under An Evergreen - Inspired By the Poets At PoetrysoupA
fine
Parrot Tulip
in vibrant intensities
with unique undertones
of green acquirable only in a
few forests. A ruby red swirls within
its petals beckons awareness of those very
strokes that live in the lustre of your shapely lips
like fantasy realized. Mirthful yellows in all those lacquers...

Genuine DamselI was lurking around but she finally found me,
We're watching the clouds and lying under a tree.
Saying words to be outspoken,
Worrying nothing even the glass is broken.
And I will lastingly love her because she's with me....

Before I Knew Your NameBefore I knew your name, you spoke to me.
Before I learned the contours of your face,
or came to know your talents, or the place
you call your home, you'd touched me lastingly.
Before I understood your shifting moods,
or pressed against your skin,...

Butterfly DreamI had a dream that I was a butterfly
winged iridescent; my life would flutter by
as I was dreaming a dream of a dream of
my own lepidopteron being above.
Hither and thither I flightily flitted,
or so it seemed, as illusion befitted,
with troubles, eidolons, and nebulous fears.
And thus...

Dharma GatewayDeath, existence, come and go,
Like a tidal undertow…
Waves that toss us, winds that blow,
Raging storms and biting snow,
Hunger, anger, joy, and woe,
Hellish heat with burning glow…
Saints and sages ‘in the know’
Quibble bookish quid pro quo.
Artful seekers high and low
Chase illusions to and fro,
Board their...

Contemplation OfLoverly lusting everything living life as it's lavish
Learning to Listen lastingly liking the letters tragic
Trusting in ever targeted tempering tantrums tethered and
Tempting ticklish touching spots toggling throughout timings
Purposely pointing passionate porous is as it's potent
Slipping sliding and slithering seeking something seductive
Whating whimpering what was it's...

MoonOh moon!
in night you stroll
amidst stars,
a silhouette a day,
why?
Oh moon!
to eulogize, an exemplar!
in night, a guide!
albeit this honour,
a form a day!
why?
night, if you’ve gone astray,
no joy for us,
oh moon!
form, beside the point,
come unfailingly,
to entertain us!
come lastingly....

A Phobic Means To An Unending EndSee me fast, feel me low, watch me strike
as I feel myself bottom blend slow into an aqeous blood slumber
silk circulating all rotten terms as I fornunicate
the manicial social countermeasures I must employ
each day here on this Earth to stay unstillborn;vertical,
co-conscious and ever present,...

EmptinessZero encloses life,
void is full if bits from nothingness break away,
striding strife.
You can’t empty
life’s emptiness, lastingly stays
full free.
God’s stilled
grace keeps soul’s bay
filled.
Zero encloses life,
life’s emptiness, lastingly stays
filled.

Forgotten WifeForgotten Wife -
WHY?
I’ve asked the question,
A thousand times or more,
What more could I have done?
As I really didn’t understand
What changed?
What had changed this man?
That man I first married.
Ever a handsome fella
Dressed in khaki clothe,
Fresh-faced,
Gentle, caring,
Considerate loving husband,
Before going off
To that stinken...

I Am Divine LightI need not touch you, for you to feel my ire
Ash to ashes, results so lastingly dire
My split second actions bring change to the worlds landscape
Devastating, ruling continents find no escape
I am divine light
Vicious, day or night
Instantaneous when I make a path to ground
Notorious preamble,...
