The Dissolving Heart
“The Dissolving Heart” 

How many keys
played for seeds 
bleeding a life

read, received 
cast out 
in the left field 

planted in the heart
of karma to become
new life reflecting

inwards out to another 
holding the echoing
music kept safe 

still heard 
and felt 
for what it is

keys 
and notes

Premium Member Alice Assaulted An Antelope
Amazingly, Alice assaulted an antelope
Because Bobby’s beavers became bold,
Considering cantilevered canines
Deliberately devastating donor’s doled.

Evelyn entirely excited electric eels
Failing forlornly from forward fencing,
Gaining ground gathering genuine gold
Her happiness heralded high financing.

I indicated initially incapable innocents
Justifying joyous juxtaposition jousting
Keeping kind Kenneth’s kindreds knit
Losing language like legally lost...

Premium Member Christmas In July
The sun shines so bright in a cerulean sky,
As Christmas spirit comes in great surprise;
People now in all walks of life,
Happily enjoy the moment once in a lifetime.

Go shopping here, go shopping there,
They all buy things needed to cheer;
Everyone joins the spectacular parade,
With big floats...

Nature Has the Upper Hand
Volcanoes can engulf the land
in avalanching lava blaze
entombing picturesque Pompeiis,
for Nature has the upper hand.

Tsunamis raze an earthly strand
disrupting lives that cling to breath
in e’er untimely mortal death,
for Nature has the upper hand.

Despite the undertakings planned,
a cataclysm’s fatal sweep
may chance on beings deep asleep,
for Nature...

Sun Kissed and Star Dusted Air Castles
She is whimsical midst-escaping
 blackness & beige stagnation,
reverberant betwixt musicality &
 fictitious paisley fabrications,
recognizes the actuality of her
 enigmatic spirit's frivolity,
well-defined by her quirky 
quintessence serving her far beyond
periods of reflective flourishes, 
has never been a slave to social
expectations nor gravitas of
 worldly-minded undertakings,
materialism is...

When A Teacher Retires....

Beloved students they suffer a loss and feel deep regret..
For the loss of accumulated knowledge they can no longer get...
It pains me to pen these heartfelt lines when a fellow comrade...
Reaches the end of a long served career of teaching children...

Poignant memories...

Introductory highlights
Paragraphs and blah-blah-blah;
Final period

Sad eyes
Staring a straight blank;
Tear tinged mascara

On this mountain
A scenic panorama;
Valley undertakings

Warning signage:
Do Not Enter --
Police investigation

Young couple
Lovely-dovely; 
Fleeting distractions

Sorrow and pain
Etch good paintings;
Come let's create

All in due time
Echoes shout;
Chaos configures

Harsh reality
Nothing nice to say;
Live and let live

Joy in your eyes

Night market stalls
So much to see;
Feel happy daze


Curious eyes feast
Seek a fond buy;
Pretty things shout


Street food vendor
Pleasant fare delights;
Long queue waiting


Crowded street
Hawker offerings;
Brisk buy and sell


Waylaid by stuff
Hordes descend here;
Night bazaar tempts


Just for a while
Try buying happiness;
Walk the bazaar route


Street side beggar
Ragged marionette;
Selling tissue packs


Feeble...

....useless undertakings....

...my best efforts were shot down...divided...fragmented...
...spirit pulled apart my exertion... dismantling me...

....leaving me looking at how I was rejected by the universe...

So now, I no longer crusade for my own campaigns...
...the movement came apart and died.... and with it,

Inconsistent Consistency
 Life, I think, is a bit of a paradox.
Floating through this desolate void devoid of context and explanation, (some might suggest value as well, I suppose); 
I conclude these idiosyncratic murmurings of bothersome almost-people 
Reprimanding my almost-conscience are just a whit of an empty,...
