Best Obfuscates Poems
TimeTime
Nothingness in it belies
A continuum, uncanny
In all lives it defines
Love, hate, rage and litany
A motion on its own
Sweeping, inescapable
A yardstick mankind bemoans
Perpetual journey, irreversible
It’s life’s anathema
Yet it counts life
It’s a thing of enigma
That heaven had contrived
To it the mind ascribes
Its values and permanence
From these, it...

Driving in the Snow with One Windshield WiperDiagonal snow
Glides effortless through
the countryside of the
Amputee windshield
For the passenger side
Has always had a reticent view
Steam rises loftily
From a topless treat
Of gas station coffee
That which further
Obfuscates the scene
Mousey and silent
Each flake falls
Like the wings of
An owl unhurried
Speckling the air
With flurries of tiny
Feathers
If snow is a...

The Sober Truth of My LandAm I missing some thing.Do I misunderstand,as a witness I stand,witnessing the folly and madness of my land. For the devilish materialistic feel of cash in their hand,they will cut the hand of their brother man.All just to conquer the materialistic land,of jewels and the...

Populist PoliticsWhen I was sixteen
I wanted Robert Kennedy's life,
although I didn't know about his time squandered
in staffing McCarthyism's
Make America as Grotesque as Possible campaign,
Which would have given me pause
in that comparatively naive age
of green longing for peace
motherlands where brown and black loves matter,
regardless of gender identities.
I...

The Wine Version of My Drunken EnemyI was falling, falling---- falling asleep I fell deep, so deep a deep mirage of sleep I gazed deep into the mirage into a tiny crystal ball where circling there were the remnants of a dream I saw my friend my best friend, I remember...

StaticWaterfalls of colourful lights
pour from your heart into mine
as a read across the page.
I long for the feeling of your
hand in mine while I sit alone.
The world stops turning
as the lights start to dim
and I wonder what kind...

Winter's Pewter GhostLike an eye through a keyhole
the moon's eclipse obfuscates
sun's white incandescence,
turns the solstice to morgue-gray.
As mist rises from a charcoal lake
laced with ice's torn edges
minions of leafless oak and alder
witness in slate silence
winter's pewter ghost,
floating phoenix-like
above July's embers
when water shimmered with indigo,
rippling tangelo butterflies...

Checking Zen MateTim is a thinker and operates within the logic of his brain
Reasonable thoughts solutions imperative webs rule
and divide analyses paradigms and guidance from hell
He googles and ogles centrifugal dispersion displayed
on the smoke screen of distracting internet searches
A seeker he is however the computer can...

Narrative Born From Subconscious Chaos: ManifestationThere is a moment in the night, in the shower, in the quiet, that exist in its own temporal bubble
and you are within it, stuck like flies to tape, as if at any moment you will launch away in sporadic patterns of flight.
Instead,...

The Physics of Poetry, Geology of TruthA poem’s like a snapshot of a quantum state of mind!)
where sharper image obfuscates the artist in the pix.
Reflections always backward; Man’s goals crippled from the start
for poetry’s a quest that rhymes with matters of the heart.
Dark matter’s hard to credit with the gravitas it...

Birds In FlightAcross the tops of clouds they skate
like skipping rocks across a pond.
A blanket, downy soft, enshrouds
and obfuscates their earthly bonds.
The white seas part to let them pass;
the turbulence remains unseen.
As too, at forty thousand feet,
is all else that lies in between.
As though looked through a...

SunsetDay's royal blue canopy fades into the outer recesses of space and time
As hoary sun sheds its fiery cloak for a deeper hue
Gilding light retracts its flaming parasol to horizon's edge
Last burning ember coalesces into a patchwork of glowing cinders
Shades of bright...

Let's All Revere the Right To VoteThis world is ours to save (or stain with plagues of what is feared).
Wealth builds high fences, rapes beyond (its appetites all ‘Sins’),
truth smeared as pawns protect cruel thrones (make moneyed men man’s kings),
not nation’s ship that floats ALL souls (wealth’s floods can drown the...
