Best Tunneling Poems
Making TeaIt's styles of a nameless brand pristine day
an exclusive star-sheathed shadow after
overwhelming luminous glare fainted
a somewhat true-to-life footpath in
a back of structured quaintness
Encountering myself at a passionate spring
oozing its life gliding o'er its rocky bosom
chasms sufficed with furtherance laden
gifts of living courses tunneling down
from...

A Goodbye LieDark chocolate eyes bore into me,
Beseeching, brimming, tunneling for truth.
A single tear trails silently
Cascading o’er lifted cheekbones so
Perfectly angled they’re matchless
Throughout nature’s beauty scheme.
Exquisite, ethereal amber skin is
Glistened by a single path tracking south
Till brushed tentatively aside and away
With a deliciously delicate crook’d index finger....

The Tree
Written: January 29, 2024

When a hurricane swirled,
and spread its deluge
of dark evil
onto the fresh green land
gloated
western skies reverberated
with joyous tales
trees had fallen!

Abandoned Rhymes: Crumpled PagesI heard taunting echoes and scurrilous snarls.
It was my conscience, and I listened as it spoke
in accusations, contemptible remarks aimed at me.
Shameful words delivered to break my fallen spirit.
In mocking voice of Shakespeare's Hamlet, I heard,
"Fatuous one, why does your writing hand quiver,
mimicking the trembling...

Autumn Leaves4:50 PM 4 oct 2014
Watching children play in the autumn leaves
Takes me back in time to fond memories
Autumn colors dark and bright
Raking leaves from noon till night
Giant piles of colorful fun
Leaping in then out for a run
Around the the yard can't catch me
Then back into...

Get OnboardBeen late for the past few hours, girl get out the shower
This don't make no sense
Slow to get up hills
afraid of making spills
Don't mean that we should stop
This love was built to last
stop living in the past
And slowin' down in curves
Relationships get blurred
baby...

They Run SoundlyA Shadorma
My soul has
earth roots tunneling
down into
earth’s belly,
swirling, curling round about,
among creatures there.
My heart rides
their elevator
going down;
deep into
mother’s sheltering, calm womb
and drinks eagerly.
I have swum
womb waters fathoms
deep and dark;
dank caverns
where most humans never go;
embrace her heartbeat.
Oh Gaia,
sacred Mother Earth,
nourish me
until I
can hold no more and...

My First Grey HairWritten by Gail DeBole
I dyed it.
The dye did not take.
So I pulled it out.
Then I climbed to the highest building and shoved it off.
It boomeranged when it hit the ground and came back to me.
Then I tried to bury it so deep within the ground...

Creative Climates For ThinkingfeelingWe are each a new way of bilateral becoming and thinking
about what a mind with body is,
where these are headed,
individually,
and as a part.
Thinking about what embodied consciousness is
and where,
in what stable climates of opportunity,
and which unstable subclimates of risk,
enculturing new ways of bilateral becoming
what our...
