Best Quagmires Poems
Silencing SonanceBewildering static
frames the soulless—
restlessly habitual, as
crippled philosophies efflux
amidst stunted swells,
cracked and parched
despite ocean whorls that
coat wayward sentiments, of
grave quagmires rippling in
steady streams,
paradoxically cornered into a
vortex of intoxicating drifters.
Rather, the moon guides my way
amidst lulling meres,

Deep Beneath the OceanThe azure ocean, home to the embedded enormous incomprehensible riches of mysteries and riddles,
More than the Mars, lies unfathomed, underneath the conundrum of oceanic colossal rhythms.
From the The Milky Sea Phenomenon, a sight captured as bioluminescence illusion,
The Purple Orb of the ocean floor of...

A Simple Life - a Beautiful LifeShe opened her fragile eyes only to see a tensed face,
Anxiously staring back at her, as if in a daze.
She danced in her tiny frock, without a worry in the world
She was after all a four year old bundle of joy, yet to face the...

From my scrambled mind brews quagmires of twaddle---
I try to assimilate wisdom with lyrics….
My mouth slags ‘lost’ for proficient words ---
And fall short when none come to note!
But so many vulnerable targets...

Wee Prickderanged snapshots of reality
full-moon's analytical quagmires
conceptualizing archetypes,
creating art of duplications
venturing prickled duplicity,
slapped me bout sideways
insinuated tacklin' romance,
uncompromising twist since
you thought me a maniacal *****
took a spin on the wily horizons
landed horizontal 'tween thighs
'twas a wee prick of somethin'
naught patter of heartbeats,
whitewashed the lunacy...

Peace On EarthPeace on earth I cherish so much without doubt
Even if rancour exist between many nations
Active participation in peace talks brings about
Cumulative efforts to end external aggressions
Existing between the Jews,Palestinians and other nations
Orchestrated by selfish interest,religious bigotry and favoritism
Now is the time to shun racism,ethnicity and...

Nocturnal MonstersZombies yearn, xanthic weathered
vaults, under tannic, stagnant, repugnant quagmires.
Places odious nocturnal monsters like killer jackals, ingest
humans, grappling for every delicious,
creamy brain appetizer.

Watering Gaian GraceOne of the least talked about,
yet most problematic issues
for regenerating
Global
social-psychological
mental and physical
health and public safety
movements
Well fed and watered
to empower and enlighten interfaith
action and reflection,
song and dance
liturgical and fire-circle
contemporary-indigenous wisdom
Is to explore together
how and when to work around
and with patriarchal clergy leadership.
Even if a...

The Melancholy and the Pale Machinery Part IvOf pale melancholy
And the infinite fall
Of broken machinery
Cast upon vast shores
Decimation reservation
The prodigal son returns
Jagged reigns of jaded egos
Amber suns stretching upon seas of sanctuary
Blue oysters cast a cult of personality
Here is where the mechanicals recoiled
Gears...

No OutletWalk carefully upon this muddy road,
Lest quagmires snag,firmly grab hold.
No outlet is nearing end,
Lifes course running short,
Precious hearts to mend.
Trace steps closely ,avoid tiny cracks,
Ground feet firmly,lock on moral tracks.
Clear fallen brush, pave this rock filled pathway.
Followers share common visions commit to stay.
Voyages traveled desperately
No...

A Political DietLives a poet in the United States
Who's sick and tired of insolent ingrates
She went on a diet
And thinks you should try it
It doesn't involve the food on your plates
You're not allowed to talk of politics
Can't claim elections were stolen with tricks
Headlines are taboo
Evening news is,...

Quest of the Heart: Chapter OneOf Ghosts and Fiends in Twilight
The sun sank low on the darkening horizon
Grey mist hung adrift over the land thickening
A cold, brisk autumn wind held and embraced me
With my horse’s pace and that of my heart quickening
Onward I rode beneath the reddish purpling sky
A...

Not Yet DeliveredIn the quagmires of the hell’s I’ve come across here on this plant;
Small pieces of my being were left behind that now need finding.
And as try to bring it back I can remember some possibilities where;
Harsh reactions were made over a lover with another man.
