Best Miasma Poems

i've taken up drinking.
talking to a wall.
a wall of confusions.
delusions.
agitations.
in depth analyzation. 
sadness. 
the word 
of the day
of blight.
smite? 
a worldly
glorious 
delight. 
she sits 
in one spot
gladly staring
into a face

face

face.
the face

what 
it is like?
why not?

Miasma  Ripening
                by Odin Roark

The chaff of greed
Feeds the consumer-compost,
While urban disquietude
Marches in lockstep.

Decomposition rages…

Choked roads of sunbaked gridlock,
Spider web into house upon house,
Creating cubic-waste upon cubic-waste,
Richer,
Poorer,
Fancier,
Shittier.

Drive by Reality…

market sell-off
mass outflows hit every asset
all indices in the red
we have to navigate the next few months
Fed insistent on 2% target
these currency moves are pretty significant
the macro factor is the Fed
indiscriminate selling
the bubble is deflating
a recession is/is not imminent
rotation away from goods and toward services
50...

Hazy transmission
the shadow of a tempest

The world is a paradise,
a magnificent melange 
of desert and forest,
ocean and mountain, 
of birds in flight 
amid cotton clouds
and symphonies of flowers
carpeting God's green earth.

But we are 
the Outsiders,
WE are 
the conflicted species,
never happy for long, 
never done.
So we war with ourselves-- 
then...

The miasma of Understanding 

Been raining and the pale nature is green again like a new spring, but 
it is a fake spring, in end of November winter will pale all living plants in 
submission. There is o point sending poetry to anyone, till February,

I see the space between
Earth and Heaven
Maya and Brahman
As bubble film
I will metastasize through it
And become light

I am in an anteroom with God, He says
Oh the things that man could do with an orchestra
As much as you can hear the music
In this life you can...

Meet moments meek where wisdom whirls,
Yes start the flow of ample more.
Move what you seek in mystic swirl,
Etch thought that grows grand subtle store;
Now heed the cause with words that etch,
Think upon ways to master deep;
Aim for the course that frames bold stretch,
Live happy stay...

MIASMA

Inter
laced with love,
on the margins,each life
a gift from God,deserving  of 
respect
yet humanity
ebbing
restless,flowing
as the tide selecting
morals,claiming ethics do not
matter
such
self-love
catches us out
and cannot be contained;
overflows and spreads out beyond the
atoll....

Messy molten melt
Blazing burning belt


Miasma moving much
Fiery flaming fudge


Hurling hissing hot
Sudden sweeping shots


Deadly debris dance
Crusty crumbling chance

A student battling with Asthma
And vaporous Miasma
Wouldn't he pack up Charisma?
Soon, confront the sure dilemma
Of suspending his Diploma 
Or sniffing Hard Work's aroma...

Espy I do Anathema,
Its picture clearest cinema:
A man from a great deal barred
And a future that might be marred...

Worse than malfunctional plasma 
Bad...

“How Long Will This Cryptic Miasma Endure ?”
 
Till the waking
the undisguised and undisclosed truth
will remain
the prisoner of our ineptitude
 
Till eyes have seen the reason for tears
till lips have tasted the motive for smiles
till we grasp the meaning
the secrets of living
not until then 
my...
