Best Untether Poems

"Paint in silence”
“The Weight of Temp”
Colour your canvas and spill your Art
shake and awaken many a heart
Untether your soul
from your whole
escape mundane and time
and let your brush rhyme
Have Man radiate
pour oil colours on his trait
Carve his seized dreams
and his insight of flowing streams
Let me read...

Foreboding of a tempestuous storm, 
it blackens as it draws near, 
a cumulonimbus in towering form, 
extending to the troposphere, 

So cast off mooring and slacken the line, 
break free while there's still time, 
'cause I'll pull you under if you don't let go, 

Save...

Into the depths of depression I sank,
To the dark bottom of that  bottomless pit,
In which problems abound and worries are heightened
Funny enough, this pit though not physical
Tells on my physical
'Tseems the force of gravity is increased upon me
My gait is slow
An my countenance an...

A rage of weather is tethered to my ribs, 
            held by a soulful feather, silent as a dead foe. 
It will totter to tatters but 
always get better, but

With my eyes half closed I looked in the mirror to see
that worry and anxiety have painted a psychedelic me.
My face is contorted, and I seem to be quite unraveled,
reflected in colors showing where my mind has traveled.

It appears I've become distorted, in a state...

The distance between
  now and forever

One memory to free
  —and untether

Every night 
As I'm unwinding 
With the light
No longer blinding
Comes my plight
Which was residing
Out of sight
But only hiding

In the distance
I hear it creep
Though resistant
I cannot keep
As it's insistent 
That I peep
So To listen
Instead of sleep

With its grinding
It does so flauntingly 
As it's reminding
That it's haunting...

My perception of God never does anything accidently he’s mistake free no debates/
He has a conception for everything he creates or how he intakes and crates/ 
Every person was designed with a purpose in mind for another person in time/

I’m tethered to work
And weathered by chores’
And follow a measured
Run-of-the-mill course.

I’m tethered, not feathered
And no longer fly,
I’ve ignored my wings
And do not know why.

Flying was certain
When flying was free;
When trying and flying
Were the best part of me.

I flew through the world
Or was it a dream,
Feathered...

 Ever Onward Into the Light and Beyond
 Ever-Rising, The Ethereal Psalm
 where Fire and Stars within Collide
 a Paradise of Wisdom, a Flower Of Life
 Ever-Inward Into realms Untouched
 where the Souls Ablaze, In This I Trust
 Ever-Propelled by the Solar Thrust
 I Wind...

Sometimes love just isn’t enough,
as destiny calls within

Orphaning passion, emotions untether,
lost to Cupid’s whim

Never requited, alone and denied,
the search begins anew

Feelings repackaged and searching for more
—to do what love can’t do 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2020)...

Granite hearted politicians
tossing our lives and minds
onto election year bonfires.
Flicking tongues- fanning blazes
veiling their throbbing lies
building dead end mazes. 

"Fixing" problems of their own making...
slinging toxins without solutions
masking our voices with concoctions.
Forcing us to breathe in beltway pollution...
We the citizens turned into treadmill jesters
juggling dirty...
