Best Unable Poems

It was deep dark, silence roaming outside
if I couldn't see and hear, it is  myself to chide
the urge within pushed my fright aside
time to open the gates of my soul wide.

My journeys I used to have on my own
seeking sheer thrill in my serene...

we reach for nothingness
these things we cannot caress
our days never return from their nights
a women never receives her rights
long lives we live in games of chess...

Unable to speak 

A’ grip, my heart,
it feels the weakness
that comes of worried dreams

Endless thoughts paint abstract on this soul

Alone, is this how it shall be?
Watching the shadows play
in reverse of what is felt?

Gazing afar, this distance fades in the mist,
hides beyond the waters edge,...

All life came to a grinding halt
while Henry Bemis was in the bank vault.
He went downstairs to read a few pages.
During lunch, he read passages written by sages.
Henry’s passion was for the content of a book.
Curiosity always had him taking a look.

An atomic blast obliterated...

“Miss Otis Regrets she’s unable To Lunch Today”

He tried to dance a tango; but she preferred a waltz;
He served a new fandango; but she cures her meats in salts.

When the lady got her stockings; in some kind of bunch;
The fellow took them off for her;...

Nonagenarian father afflicted,
his body electric awry
with congenital heart failure,
before long twill bid existence bye
whose physical well being -
corporeal essence inevitably will die

unavoidable manifest destiny...
accompanied into afterlife courtesy death
envision caricature immortal grim reaper
moost ofttimes (normally leering)
brandishing trademark scythe,
impossible mission to skirt dark shadow

creeping closer along edge...

Time stopped 
my heart stops 
my pulse fades 
in and out I go as we cross paths
 like we were destined to lock eyes 
you took my breathe when you 
walked away
 my heart stopped beating and your 
lips can start its rhythm 
I'm needing...

When I met you
I was like a wounded bird
You healed my wounds 
with tender kisses
You strengthened my heart
by giving it love to nurish it
You fed me promises
eagerly I swallowed them
And just when I was able 
to fly again
You battered my heart
Deepened my wounds
And then
You clipped...

Unable to sleep, I pull out my book of memories. I open to the chapters about Cyprus. They are many. I've lived more in that enchanted isle than in any other place in the world. My mind caresses each memory as I wander through each...

Of late, I seem unable
To write a song or fable.
Perhaps it’s too much caffeine;
I seem to be unstable.

Now recently, I’m shaking;
My muscles have been aching.
I may be lacking protein,
Or maybe I’m just faking.

A certain strange malodor;
Those germs are all freeloaders.
Perhaps it is my hygiene,
My wife...

Far as the (ease) 
severely myopic eyes can see,
nothing but polluted atmosphere
where skull and crossbones
memento mori betokens beware,

especially with increasing chronology
mortality becomes crystal clear
existential crisis yours truly didst despair
not so much death itself, but failure
(inadequacy) at livingsocial

mine life to the hilt
plain as day everywhere
casual attitude...

Angels call and demons fall
love is seen over the wall
Unattainable yet in reach
Cant give up there is no rest
Trying, crying till my death
to touch, to taste 
But I cant forget 
So how can I forgive
The live I was forced to live  
I crawl back...

Unable to Relate
2010

There he sits, across from me
Patiently peeling two eggs
Same lunch each day
Two eggs in between two slices of bread with muster, yogurt, apples, pear
Peculiar is he
Entertaining I must say
Laughter takes over
Reminiscent of the past, common experiences
Experiences not forgotten
He tells the story
Symmetry exposes two...
