Best Pinnacled Poems


Premium Member Future Nostalgia
A retiring sun appeared cut in half,
As pinnacled rays of light,
Through breaches in the clouds,
Formed a radial lattice,
That was projected through the twilight,
Gave me a feeling of nostalgia,
For a time when things were all right....

Contrasting Visions...
As armies continue to march their sanguinary war
lifeless lay those as sinewy gore,
pinnacled soldiers atop a land possessed
making themselves feel they've been blest
	
Bittersweet is the toil of progress
especially for those unacceptable to less
the muses in choir sing lamentable pleas
for those who have fallen on bended...

The Night Glenfell

         A summer solstice candle breezing midst the twilight air

Premium Member Witnessing Earth's Wedding
We
richly green mountains
of germinating
Jeremiah prophetic strength

Before we formed you
in our valleyed womb,
we knew you

Before you came to life
rebirthed
we consecrated your humane species

We witness your
polycultured prophecy
to Earth's linguistic continents

We transubstantiate
and thereby bless
this sacred grace
taking late summer's place
in cooperative ecofeminist space

Beyond merely humane reflections
back upon our ancient...

Still the One
Will you marry me?...enamored the deep gaze.
Twenty years ago , I mesmerised into your maze.
    
Razzled dazzled life, beleaguered in  myriad phase.
Pristine peace I found, hugged in your embrace.

Those quarrels and niggles, grudge, grin of grumble.
Those laurels and giggles, touch within...

Desire
maybe Epicurus might'a been furious
if he'd lost all of his desire
combed the ground, to look around
for lost wants to quench his ire

where'd he drop his taste for food
and pour out his tongue for wine
no lyre to pluck his ire for good
no nimble lover to limbly...

Trauma of the Ego
In his image
Let me not contest the fire
Diminishing me from desire,
Shadow and reflection
Erased in aberration empty mirror
Seeing light swallowed by the form
Too bright for light to show.
In this image
The last landmark left inviolate
Pinnacled on a nest of words
Every sentence hatches me stronger
Every meaning
More eternal I...

Snow Leached
All brimming crystal drizzled earth frazzled glory hugged;
Icicles jousting kaleidoscopic light, meets
Natures overfrosted pinnacled quiverings.
Raining snow tumults us, Life-like vanities: 
Waning xylems' younger zeniths...

Chicken Finger Sunday
Just a single conscious decision,
hanging in the palm of your hand
A quavering sensation
breathing in subsequent rhythm, a pulse
dripping from the band
All these motifs around me
and I'm just a stagnation in time
Never will be or is the same as
each second lapsing behind

Carrying around moments as my...

Summer's Song
When lost in sorrow, too much to bear-
To see an ember of hope re-sparked -
I look at you, into your eyes I stare -
Still on your finger, my love is marked -
Although not worthy of your endless love -
You give me light, pinnacled from high...

Reprisal
I marched, they marched, we marched
For nothing now it seemed
And I the ego pulpiteer, left parched
Refusing to go underground with the stream
That carried me before to a sheer
Desolate drop, I can struggle unless I fear.

So here in the monastry of altar and pew
I come again...

Premium Member The Picture of My Grandfather
He would walk into the room
Shoulders held high
Pinnacled to touch the sky
In my eyes a giant of a man

My Grandfather wore a face
Of a blue-eyed Irish sage
With wondrous stories and rousing song
In every breath and heartbeat
Belonging to his Celtic tradition 

Some might call him strapping
To...

Cone Calderas
Shivering sullen, silent all the time.
Suffering, wisdom, alone and sublime.
Where, O my oracle, shall I begin?
Blanch, light of Sin, nickel, cadmium, tin.
Hollow are hearts in the hill-towns, and why?
Dreams are a mystery passing us by!
Doom, thy coworker. O death, say a word.
Quartered by each third...
