Best Veritably Poems


Premium Member Between Reality and Understanding
A thought arose...

In Hegel's great dialectic cotillion,
Time transcends as the Absolute emerges,
From deep submersion.
Veritably idealistic path to verity.
It is all about History!

While Schopenhauer's Will, By mere chance,
Drives life in concentric circles spinning,
But not winning
Human solicitations are insatiable.
A germ on the cogwheel of life,
Facing a suffering...

The Emperor's New Clothes
"The Emperor’s New Clothes"

We write about beliefs
our prayer flags flying 
like chrysallis books on a branch 
of those higher deities we trust, 
submerged, we are always listening 

in our quiet hours of sleep
mostly when 3.33 calls us in,
we wake regularly, we wake
like sleepwalkers, we turn...

"There was a Great Silence"


There was a great silence in that place, a kind of peace,
you sensed them, the unseen removed, all around you,
yet, all the cacophony in the noise from that Other place
the unexpected turmoil those Others brought into the ruination 
of an external...

Butterfly Dream
I had a dream that I was a butterfly
winged iridescent; my life would flutter by
as I was dreaming a dream of a dream of
my own lepidopteron being above.

Hither and thither I flightily flitted,
or so it seemed, as illusion befitted,
with troubles, eidolons, and nebulous fears.
And thus...

Damn Divisive Demagogic Derelict
Das Don doth debilitate democracy
driving a collateral wedge
deliberately dividing differences
collaborating, collapsing, and collaring
disparity amidst ever
increasing homogenization

extant within contiguous United States
across world wide web for that matter
attested by increased
spike among multiracial
amalgamated enclaves, individuals mixing,
where preponderance of melanin

generally affecting predominance
regarding increasing swarthy
naturally copper toned skin
across vast majority...

A Gentle Woman
There are many bonds which hold us together
Maybe it was our essence could it possibly be the weather
Your presence on my over so wintry heart
Inform me of the fact that we will never part
I was a victim when we had first met
A bright, beautiful, and...

Xensual Abc
X-ensual abc

Another besotted, charmed, dissolute evening .
Fondling  gadabout’s  hearty invite. 
Jubilation kindling lusty memories.
Nightly, orgasmic,  phallic. 
Quivering  rose’s swelling titillation unabated. 
Veritably  wet.  Xaerning Yang-Yin  zygote`.

Notes: 
 Xaern= to enjoy something so much you begin to hate how...

Pardon Mine Allegiance To Infidelity
Unfaithful marital transgressions
self admitted indictment,
crime and punishment,
no longer think high lee
entailing no mister re: demeanors,
I searingly weathered

(George by bushed, albeit thankfully,
no unwanted child left behind),
nonetheless one unforgettable
indelible, execrable, and abominable
professedly owned his
civil warring battle of life

transgressions undeservedly heaped
(Uriah hit about that)
(carnal feral hormonally seething
gone astray...

Premium Member Unknown Soldier Ode
In the morning I heard howling in the air,
The most rooted oak bows in awe and swear,
In the prior gleam of sunset, were greeted with pride,
In perilous fights, our flags and stars never hide. 

What induces a nation's pillars strong? 
How is it gifted to...

Mistress Yangchenma
Thou art my mistress,my fantasy,and my craving
Thou art my imperial,my masterpiece,my wealth, and treasure 
Thou art sunshine and silvery that doth enliven dismal heart 
To the sparkling stars I shall compare thee
Your beauty with beauteous,luminous,and lustrous 
Thou art serenity of many endowments:
Endowed with cooling effects...

Mayhem and the Strange Stranger
The infraction of mayhem stood resilient as it was tried for the many crimes the jurors had, ultimately, blamed on rage.
The reaction went, as expected, and mayhem worried, "Is this what happens when madness is forced to live in solitude as a cage?"
This intimidation failed...

Premium Member Angels and Demons
Listen hard, do you hear the whispers of the night?
softly telling you to follow your long forgotten dreams
urging you, egging you on insidiously pushing you
be they the words of angels? Or a demons words?

Pricking at your inner mind twisting your very thoughts
dragging up the long...

Thunder Claps
When conformists' adherence to
 irksome, empty, shallow, hollow
 obsolete rules

 overrides unadulterated substance...
 imported intuitive works
 of essence, potence...spirit

When lettered law
 obscures, obliterates
 disintegrates
 vital verve

When egotistical opinion
 ascends higher, reigns over...
 tramples on authentic art

This is when I dispose and disclose
 I hold scant...

“The inner beacon flashes in the tempestuous ocean as  
the escort in the divine course  to the final destination” – By Poet


An ancient mariner in the ocean called life,
I am sailing solemnly seemingly for ages 
in the limitless luminosity of the sunshine,

My Motivations
It’s not about where you come from
Neither is it about where you are
It’s not about what you can do
Neither is it about what you’ve done
It’s not about failing the contest
Neither is it about winning it

We have come so much more farer 
So we just can’t...
