Best Realign Poems

In a world bejeweled 
with tainted trinkets,
and feigned flowers,
we follow the 
wailing waves below 
whirling wind,
like secluded silhouettes,
stranded on the
cusp of chaos,
unable to find the sparkling
streak of hyacinth hope-
between dusk and dawn. 

Perhaps there is a
reason why I stopped
rewriting runes with
cashmere conclusions, 
as I’ve long...

Humanity 

The pagan pilgrimage, sun-worshippers frequently make
Latter-day phenomenon, take off on a Bronze Age break
Constellations change position, solstices realign
Tropic of Capricorn peaks, Cancer starts its slow decline

Astrologers reassure us, the end is not bespoke
Astronomers can’t sleep, has a supernova awoke?
Healthy cells deconstruct inexorably from their...

you want to know a secret
when I write a poem and it's perfect
i dont share it
i bury it 
deep inside of me 
where no one else can see
i mean its perfect
not like this shift 
it's elegant, poignant, 
simplistic, bueatful 
trucking perfect
its not erotic 
but i...

May we always address dis-complacency, the vacancy,
And remove all opposes, to our roses,............................................................(Acts 18:4-6)
Here at Poetry Soup, completing love’s 100% loop, in our soup,

For an authentic rose, from God it grows, always knows,
It’s own heart, from which it grows,

For authenticity’s, dis-complacency
Displaces a rose, from which...

I'll come around again
Realign with the stars
Until then I have little to say
It feels like an endless fall 
Exit... Entrance
I feel a need to be held
I'm lay, avoiding my day
It had good intentions
But I'm not ready for it
End... Rest
It's ok, I see how today is...

Zoned out in the darkness
Time devours my vitality 
Trying to swim; I sink to the bottom
Meet me here in aphotic darkness
Our devilish souls can create a tsunami on the surface
And obliterate all other love
Light hearts, ripples
As we drink their shallow cries

Unite with me as I...

Our eternal souls are dust from a falling star
To once part and come back together from afar
Here is two imperfect hearts and souls
 That when together they are whole
Will it be fate or destiny as this story unfolds
Both hearts and souls which was once complete...

I whisper to you in the quiet night
So many thoughts there are to say
Immersed in the corners of darkness
While so long you have been away

All these miles of distance and time
From another life merge with today
A peaceful revelation and sublime
Only you would understand this way

Echoes...

“It” embraces “togetherness”
Like blemished mascara on a retired call girl

“It” would speak in aggressive audible banter,
As if crystallized bullhorns were
Strapped
Onto unwelcome seating arrangements

No boundaries.
No consideration.
No apologies.

Yet, their measurement of pride
Coagulates into withered centimeters
While seducing unscented tulips
With impoverished protractors 
And tattered encyclopedias

An unsatisfied square root with...

Despite the climate challenge with traffic congestion on the road,
there’s still a driving urge to go out and celebrate the Eucharist;
it’s a great deal of commitment to God who’s the source of life,
his language connotes an embodiment of love for our salvation.

Braving the difficulties in...

Traces of Haile Selassie ‘I’
The Lion still roars
Traces of Martin Luther King
dream lives on

Traces of Bob Marley
In song “get up stand up for your rights”
Traces of Malcolm X
Segregation fight still burns bright

Traces of Mandela's  
Fight for justice set free
Traces of Marcus Garvey
Purpose and His-story

It started the 8th of June
moving away from too familiar
into too alien,
finding no sane oasis between.

Vibrant greens relentlessly fade
to wilting monoculturing drought.
Brown patches emerge with dulled loss of inspiration
of what might have been a family
an ecological home
a contenting pasture for aging bones,
hinky synapses flaring thorny...

As we bring in spring the thing I mainly dread,
Is preparing overbearing taxes for the Feds.

If I had the power to empower anything,
I’d shower that power on a tax decoder ring.

This sure thing ring would sting right at the source,
Of our outmoded tax code that...

Disorientated in the world I've known.
Struggling to comprehend what's defined.
Unable to fix my course, I'm alone.
I stumble through my encamped darkness blind.
Encircled by confusion I must stand,
To confront the reasons that find me lost,
And reach for the will my soul shall demand,
To defeat this fluster,...

"A Shakespearean Sonnet of Introspection"

~As the Master, Precept of Infinity’s divinities, 
   scuffles the senses of the Moses deck of life once again, 
   human concepts often need of love's mercy again to please. 
   I am deceived once...
