Paradoxical Premise
Stands on the land of heterodox
Who's the mightiest God of all?
People live and die on their equivocation thoughts

Those who exclaimed about the God who never fall
Inversely proportional to what they always do
Who's the mightiest God of all?

Seekers, believers, heathens and philosophers with their point of...

Premium Member Paradoxical Battle
(Isaiah 55:8 & 9) 

Reject the bull snot of naught, 
the battle has already been fought…
upon a precept plane higher than human thought

Where human concept logic found to be vain…
From such wickedness one must learn refrain…
Not harboring a conjured devil to blame

A matter of human...

Generating chaos.
Organised chaos, mind

Paradoxical Thought
I live in a box where I'm constantly barraged by a personal concoction of paradoxacle thoughts and it haunts me -
and at the cost of any and all of my previous notions, 
I question my very existence 
as a prawn in the shadow of an...

Paradoxical
Death killed by his own knife 
A thief stealing his own life

Fear in the closet hiding
A critic himself criticizing

Anger scolded and burning
The head from the heart learning

Lust by innocence tempted
Day by night resurrected

Strength by weakness beaten 
Hunger by a glutton eaten

The law caught and found...

Premium Member Paradoxical Images
Dozen of dozens questions, I was carefully asked..
Maybe ten hundreds, I was requested for a shot..
hundreds by hundreds, vivid images rush..
of smiles; of wonders; of glee and of absurbness..

some fantazises..
some beholds..
some envies..
some admires...

leaking in deep embedded trenches..
bombarding waves after waves..
begotten in fusions of vibrancy..
in partition...

Premium Member There May Be a Paradoxical Mirror
There may be a mirror universe 
  in which time runs backwards
Hawkins hosts dinner for time travelers
  who eat dark matter for dessert
           
Thousands of Endurances think 
  critical thinking was just...

Paradoxical
Tiptoeing on eggshells
So the silence of mercy won’t be disturbed.
Hungry, I wait a tiny morsel.
Thirsty, I wait the morning dew.
Yet she looks,
Holding tight to her precious gift
That wills my soul
To keep yearning for it

She always wore 
that jacket with pride
she could hide behind its 
colorful display
mesmerized them 
with her beauty

they never saw her sneaky game

I play with their minds you see
today I'm happy 
I’ll splash color all over me 
red, yellow, green, a shade of crimson too

Who does not desire a good life?
Watch purpose and passion work fire.


Who cares if you come, stay or go?
Watch zest and courage shape fond flow.


Who dares to face life's harsh music?
Surpass things comic or tragic.


Who greets each transient moment's spell?
Mindful beyond heaven or hell.


Who wants...

Paradoxical
Pray down on bloody knees and free
Sitters and sinners under stalwart tree
Oaken, ashen, burnt to the ground
Its roots twisted and spun around

Free in expression under dark soils
In light grim and suicidal it boils
Over the edge into a pit of snakes
It has taken a toll on...

Paradoxical Sleep
Random thoughts at arbitrary times
A life once shared quickly demised
Thoughts that swim in water deep
Nightmares come in paradoxical sleep

You watch me flail, in over my head
Drift in and out while I mournfully tread
Choke out the water that’s in my throat
Silently drown or try to stay...

Results in laughter

Which clears the deck

Of all of  

Refined arguments

And questions......

Misdemeanor
MISDEMEANOR 

A soft lisp runs through blonde summer grasses,
shoving at kites or the hems of long skirts.
Umbrellas and hats stir as it passes, 
jumbling at picnics, it teases and flirts.  
It picks up speed while playing with Marty, 
and takes his land legs as...

Premium Member A Chance Encounter
A chance encounter
Love at first sight 
A cute meet
A romantic encounter
An unarranged fate
A blind date 
Not fortuitous
Not accidental of course
An arranged affair
A chance meet or a blind date 
Both may flourish
What's important 
The ending of the episode
A passionate courtship
A long ,loving marriage
Eternal happiness 
Fate can...
