Best Sanely Poems
RemnantsSad Heart, now thou art wither’d from the Sun,
What man, or god, will near thee run?
Wrought in twist like branches in Tempests' gasp,
What Comfort, or Gauze, shall be near to grasp?
True ones begotten are the ones now Rotten
And the ones now Rotten will never be...

PromiseI'm writing on the first page.
I love the concord and quiet at my age.
The morning came from a genius mage.
In my spirit, I am searching for the truth stage.
To understand things to resist this upsurge.
It is secured with the vibration of the exchange.
Same as waves,...

unchanging yet exotically emitting
all that changes

Dramatic Monologue
My Brother JamesWe only talked sanely a few times,
About how he also had a condition like me,
Although my dad, who was a pharmacist, when James was small wouldn’t say,
Obvious as it was that he had CF from his cough n' inward-growing finger-nails,
Dad decided...

EarthCommonSenseI wonder what
and whom
makes my transracial family tick.
Quick shadows of lopsided smiles.
Slapping white walls as you step by.
Are these tics
that make you tick somehow?
I know what ticks you off.
Disrespecting your sacred right
becoming lover you.
Yet I doubt a Mercedes convertible
would actually fuel your healthiest you.
I...

Drunk At FourteenI wondered home one night with the stars,
With my kingly rugby shirt on encompassing,
My blue Bec 40 electric wheelchair, no bars,
Which I was also the king of notwithstanding.
Irrespective of my supposed bad hand spasms,
Irrespective of my enforced silence regarding,
Irrespective of my...

What Is Your AnswerHis head lifted, and looking for his brothers,
He found his mum, sanely able again to relate to him,
Cold, death-like figure, icy face, warm outline of a kin,
Grieving, her brave face emanated hope for him;
His head stayed up, but only for a...

Christmas and MeA smile from a friend cheered my spirit,
And then we chatted about the season;
Then another smile caught me with it,
He must’ve smiled for a good reason.
He gave an invitation into his office,
And although he was much older,
We had similar...

An Oxymoron In OblivionAn Oxymoron in Oblivion
My soul sweetly shouts a supernova of a yawning yell
To ponder and penetrate our inept gravitational shell
My love to explore the dimming nebula of lustrous light
To faithfully fulfill my dreams of the narcoleptic night
Within the sirens of silent solitudes, there must be...

Confession By Alexander PushkinI love you, so I'm getting mad,
let my ado and shame are vainly
And all my foolish thoughts aren't sanely
in feet of yours I bow my head.
It's not my face, it's not my age,
It's time to be just little smarter,
I see my symptoms and they...

Two Beach Strolling Sisters Discussing Their SaviorTwo Beach Strolling Sisters Discussing Their Savior
This was his virtue; that with head and heart
He saw life sanely, from all mist apart,
and spoke with such assurance as he showed
our way as straight as an old Roman road.
This was...

Ekphrasis
I DoI have always dreamt of a day
A day filled with blissful memories
Entrenched in the hallowed walls
Well-knit in my heart of hearts
The day a prince stole my heart
To keep in his cherished heart-vault
I will blow the fanfare with loud trumpets
Tell the timeless tales to my children
On...

Brave New World-Second SightWhen illumination turns into damnation
And tentative time is the internal enemy
Because those of us who do not fuss
Will begin to slowly sadly sanely see
And the rest of you who will askew
In decadent darkness will boldly blindly be
The world is staged and ritually raged
As our lives...

Was School the Best Thing On EarthWas School the Best Thing On Earth?
Mary’s little lamb was not me really,
I had alternative thoughts inside, innately;
I confided in who I loved, trusted sanely,
But secrets are selfish very most truly.
I knew I had a place and a time,
And although...

"Strangely"
Withdrawals getting shaky
I can't think or see straightly
I'll stay stuck or I'll break free
They thought I was just being shady
It made me
Or was able to break me
A change in me
Or still the same me
Continued on more sanely
Or started going crazy
I held on bravely
It all went...
