Best Stagnantly Poems

Fascism lives in tension with holy optimism,
as hatred fades in presence of mutual love,
as WinLose evolutionary models
give way to WinWin sacred Energy
stories and songs and dances,
as patriarchal colonization
gives way to matriarchal creolization.

Fascism,
synonymous with Totalitarianism,
as written by Hannah Arendt,
is a growing monocultural tendency toward,
and actual exercise...

(Answer to Claude McKay I shall return)
YOU shall not come again
You won’t come back
You shall not turn up, you shan’t
To chuckle and care for the ones you want to see
To wristwatch with wonder surprised eyes
For the dozy noontime shall be shadowy,
And you shall not see...

Kaptain Kundalini

Those unloved, and void of lust
Stagnantly covered in the dust
Waiting to be wiped with thrust
Smoot veils, they’re on the cusp
Of being just one more swept away, unnoticed

Like ancient texts forgotten too
Gone unseen, closed eyes rue
Held in limbo till he says the que
Halted, cold tangled...

The lights that are alive
Beam my mind in knots
Fishbowled on an elevator, brushing beanstalk men in black
Eyes up; I'm stubbed and trapped in my panicked plight
One tips his topper and says “the galaxy is behind you” 
I didn't know what to make of it, yet...

Dust devils harass the ground,
Sweeping up accessible layers of earth 
Stagnantly rooted in their stake 
Of vast uncaring land along train tracks in the desert.

The wind-born dirt
Whisks against calloused surfaces
Of metal things carelessly left
On the dry earth of the forgotten South Forty.   ...

You have become a sort of curiosity
Your eyes wander up and I watch you
Gravitate toward me
Like a forbidden, foreign thing

I can’t speak
For fumbling for foothold 
I am upturned and reeling
My mouth hurts from shyly grinning

Why are you so beautifully strange?
Your hands perched on the desk...

what
A multitude of dishes is just not a sanctuary of fishes. Ok? Did you hear the trinkling of the water omitting from the tap? Gaps are small and small is smell and smell is stagnantly sipping stoic spit. Judge not a golden orb of a...

SUSPENDED

this static quiet...

stagnantly 
fills my space 
silently
the air hangs
dense and muted
my fingers type
numb floating

appendages

rest slightly bent
motionless
hurt dripping off
the tips deferred
now adjourned

another tortured
soul
suspended
in
time

Everyone's waiting

baited breath

fluttering hearts

And shoulders tilted like balances offset




But who sees it coming

Anywhere. No one 

All hear whispers and sees not the mouth

With hands aside and lips held tight

We wait for something uniquely ours




Til the clock stops ticking and

the cuckoo flies its nest

And like strangers...

Soak into your senses 
Stop stepping down your standards for someone's satisfaction
Your skeptical because selflessness sent you staggering 
Stumbling and succumbing to something you are not
Something stagnantly synthetic
Submerged under the surface
Something inside you sees the shackles separating you from sustainment
Trying to salvage the shortcomings and...

An essence heard a heartfelt plea
meek, unconfident, not familiar
"Should I bother anymore? Please guide me."
His words hardly mist....
a response slices the scene
     with the speed of a guillotine.

skittering over the asymmetrical
similarities of a snowy expanse
      a...

My wrenching mind forever caught in pain.
Life bound within the heartaches, which there passed.
As hope became an endless glory, lost,
My dreams soon met their nightmares until dawn.
Misery grew watered by endless floods.
As tears began their cycle once again,
My soul dropped down into a dark despair.
Then,...

Stagnantly idle, all can see
Horrifying comments, said upon to me
Utterance of ignorance, because I disagree
Thunderous demands; broken debris 

Unkempt existence; useless plea
Piercing is the voice; an obnoxious potpourri...

the fins
of human
quake tremendously
spills grotesqueness while dumping
the ox cosmos in the middle of smoothly
mirrored
ocean Walls

where ones choice is fixed
at dawn stagnantly brimming
in obsolete enviable damp colours
woven in a volcanic
oasis of anguished circles embraced in
loneliness fronted
with shuttering frozen stars
moulding through a sunny cheerful darkness
reinvigorated with
strident current...

"Shih" translates into Good
as "Fei" becomes Bad.

And so moral textured oppositions
continue:
Right and Wrong
Healthy and Pathological
True and False
Win and Lose
Healing peace and Punishing revenge

Yang and Yin
distinguish rational appositions,
not sufficient as Either/Or left-brain calculations
and necessary Both/And right-brain
correlative associations

Like Yes and (not) No,
Positive and (not) negative
Is and (not)...
