Best Surety Poems


Color Surety

Canvas, calm, grinning. . .blank
Had words screamed, scarecrows trapped on the poles of their creators,
Had words formed psalms that barricaded the strongholds of the heart,
Divine despair would desperately take hold again,
Embellishing the muse
To smile, the impassive smile. . .confuse

Enraptured by your tail,
Coiling, boiling in the hot and hungry sun
The eyes, clouded, caught in a moment of inexorable suffering 

Death glistening in the confirmation of tears and groans,
Shading the dialogue that never surfaces
Justice in pale focus. . .constant, still held in out-of-the-blue faith

Please, 
Do not allow your perspectives to dull
Waiting so long, I deafened the cries
The very cries I so blindly expressed. . .
Words etching existences imagined

I want you to take the hand of uncertainty
For as I have, I forever feel the tremors that have given me shape
Those very hands create what you dream,
And not what you fear

Take that hand,
Squeeze it tightly
I promise you, once you touch. . .I will never let you go

For I love you, 
Oh, unexplained hold. . .
Help me escape the newborn deaths of today
Teach me how to step over the carcasses of calamity
Where the innocent die to inspire the remaining
Learn how to lead me into the lights of your eyes

Please,
Give me your beautiful hand,
I will take you to places you will never understand
And it will be okay

Because where I go,
The scarecrows roam with the roaring ravens
Making music with the pulse of their wings
With the sharp click of their beaks

Where I go,
Psalms of serenity's back way make love with impending day,
Spinning despair into the golden hairs of suspended May 

Where I go,
innocent flowers freely giggle arrays of life
And his tail whips mightily,
His black velvet purrs arousing breaths of caramel verisimilitude

Where we stay,
In the forever grip of the trust you and I made,
Justice is pure water,
Cool and refreshing. . .ever smiling

Please,
My love, please
Hold onto this world with me
Give me your needs that I need. . .
And I promise perspective will prosper
The canvas, one blank, filled with detailed destiny of Color Surety

The Surety of Love

Would you march in haste 

A mountains tapering side

Or defy the abyss of an oceans

Infuriated tide,

And to exist for I only

When affairs volunteer so rough

Then I’d believe it’s true to state

That this is surely LOVE…………………

 

Would you high jack in turbulence

An airborne fast jet plane

Or scamper the crest of an express

Propelling midnight train,

And to become enhancer of voice for I

When speech is in vain so tough

Then I’d believe it’s true to state

That this is surely LOVE…………………

 

Would you bolt fearless through the wilderness

Upon a virgin stallion horse

Or challenge the heart of hurricane 

Entrust with strides of force,

And partake within my tragedies

When my sights are set above

Then I’d believe it’s true to state

That this is surely LOVE………………….

 

Would you voyage yonder with projection

Horizontal to the moon

Or pursue the clouds in governed cover

Of a hot air charged balloon,

And foresee to be unconscious 

Of my weakness

When my brain is full of fluff

Then I’d believe it’s true to state

That this is surely LOVE……………….

 

Would you embark upon the darkness

Within the jaws of a lions lair

Or deputise for I the showdown

With a black as thunder bear,

And shield I with protection

From showers of human stuff

Then I’d believe it’s true to state

That this is surely LOVE…………………

 

Would you advance in gravity

With endurance of flames upon your feet

Or scramble the soils of meadows

Laden of towering seasoned wheat,

And to steer I honest and wisely

Retained buttoned within your cuff

Then I’d believe it’s true to state

That this is surely LOVE…………………

 

Would it be solely for I alone

That averse to the world you stand

To transform my blind spot of naivety

And harbour I from total man,

But foremost of all, to be my friend

As that to I is proof enough

Then I shall believe it is correct to state

That, that is obviously the surety of LOVE........

To come from faith is a trap
snares woven between the words
took to heart by the sincere
before the mind is lost to fear

there is no telling where a life ends
from conception to the last descent
into madness without escape
surety set against all wills

others are damned as so entranced
the lockstep standard is applied
wedded to religion’s jest
that ego lost is safety gained

confusion is the monster born
identity turned to flip the tale
where the god stands alone
or is the enemy of common man.

salted sure solidarity 

                     soldier servicing  s o l i t u d e

             stable  E Y E  in storms
                              staring at ships

                          seas  
sombre in siren

       with ….. 
                seals and salmon

we sighted 
                   sanguine light
                         singular spirits of singing sapience
        
               some to summits

                        you show in 

                         STATURE
