Best Subtlest Poems

Childhood is a ship,
preparing to set sail,
but not all harbors are kind

the ocean a mysterious enigma.

Not all inflictions are visible,
some bruises remain invisible.
Not all trauma can be expressed,
so the past is buried - still breathing.

Ghosts resurface, with subtlest of hints.

When we are born,
we are 'freshly...

Methinks pilots are such superior mortals
For their ability to make metals fly like fowls,
And soldiers have such an impressive mettle
That makes you salute their daring prowls.

Surgeons are such a precise and thoroughly seasoned breed
That will dumbfound with details of capillaries and veins,
And commanders-in-chief such colossal...

subtlest we are  ~stuff of star
creation of the elements that spawn 
densest is the space
between beginningless origins 
and endless blurs 
thus, cosmogony visible 
vehement impassions
blends the invisible 
spreading hues of mahogany,
redshifts dust
 
stripped of mind, 

blurred...

manifested into existence 
two worlds collide,
rich in lust...

To the casual observer, even to herself sometimes,
She appears calm and collected.
But inside, the She-wolf stands on high alert,
Ever watchful, in a fierce state of attention.  

Her eyes intensely attuned to the subtlest movements
In the world around her.
Her ears pricked up, listening
For the slightest...

Anxious in Ancona (1)

His plan, as he’s boarding his baldachined barge
en route for the easterly sea,
(arthritis allowing) is giving it large,
but the pain is as bad as can be:
though Rome is his home, he must go and take charge:
Cortona is cortisone-free.

One thousand four hundred the...

Slave Mentality
I had a dog for twelve years, a friendly dog it loved me it was a slave, 
had to, in order to be accepted in human society, suppress its instinct.
Nature is a hard place fight for food is endless; canines found it easier 
to...

Dawns light slithers in, and it scratches your soul

The days eviceration about to unfold

Your mind all a jumble, your flesh all a quake

And you wonder inside " How much more can I take"

Will you hide behind fortress of opiate walls

Do you muster your strength, do...

Moment by moment, as life does unfold
We find mind not fully immersed therein
Assigning meaning to what we behold
Diffusing vibrations grazing our skin

What we call waking, being grossest state
The light of awareness, here too flickers
During sleep, senses rested, we gyrate
Responses both instinctive and weaker

Subtlest state of...

Those souls are of many shades 
They walk past me in my dreams,  
often with an utter silence, a heavy one, 
And, all I do there, is watching those T-Shirts.

T-shirts have the strangest stories of this world 
Often in the subtlest way, right on...

She has her expressions,
    He has his smile;
Fate brought them together in one
    Fleeting moment in time

To become masters of the art
    —in the most hidden of gestures
    and the subtlest of acts—

Of...

I peer through mists of coming years,
The present disappears,
The crimson clouds of war blow past—
Utopia—world peace at last.

No famine, plagues or hunger then,
World law among all men,
Complete coerced security,
The subtlest sort of slavery....

Listen to the built-in
Meaning-making-murmur.
In the deepest recess
Of your inner being
In the subtlest string
Of the music within
There is a small
There is a still
There a powerful inner voice
Crying out  for meaning
The cry is loud enough
To be heard all around
Please, read my eyes
Please, listen to my heart
Please,...

Dynamic Re: Flexion Within The Restless Earth

Blame Neptune for unleashing
     Indonesian tragic phenomena
     just by his innocent wink
merely intended by regular
     casual reminder
     for Earthlings to think
seriously how (inhabited

Of all the fields of studies
Of all life unsolved mysteries
None offers as many opportunities as
The study of man's inner potential
Of all the fields of studies
Of all life unsolved mysteries
None is as neglected as
The field of man' s inner potential.

Cast out sporadically
The net inwardly
Life's most coveted...
