Blackest Poems

Premium Memberblackest wings scale higher than mountains

 Blackest wings, scale higher than mountains
in the chill of tonight's air,
scarred and bleeding from within,
determined to reach her lover's side,
A voice calls out to her voyage
but her vision gets lost
as it starts to drizzle and rain.

She collides & in such pain,
her claws trying to embed in the side
of the rocks but she keeps skidding

Premium MemberBLACKEST HIGHS IN HEAVEN SPACE-

Above 2nd heaven
Blackness spot
Parallel darkness
What’s day or night --

rise up, rocket shoot
Shot fly into the skies
past the pearl white blues

vision hues . . .
a moon color white 
sun yellow in the sky

after launching rocket
Launch many heavens more
Does the outer space

Have a final high
Of yet how high
Does it go/ glow?

Height higher high
Deeper the debts--


Above 2nd heaven
Blackness

Premium MemberMore Green and the Blackest Ebony

the Egyptian queen's eye make-up had to be perfect
she instructed her face painter to make it extra green
and the blackest ebony you can imagine she instructed him
the harried creator had to add more lead and more copper
each time he thought it was right she shot him down
More green, more black, and she frowned at his

Blackest Hell

See you today 
Through a fogged wind
And when I don't, I feel your embrace in the wind
Even in the blackest hell
Your image lingers in my mind
Reassuring words compliment like,
cherries with cake
Your touch caressing me 
your hands positioned on my hips
Feels so gentle
As long as you're here
My worries will disappear for a few
 As long as

Much As Love And Hope Defeats Blackest Blight

I shall walk from the dark into new light
Much as love and hope defeats blackest blight
So too, may faith in recovery ask
Does not the hero, in great courage bask
To stride a victor over battles fought
A winner, hero, to live again thus sought.

I shall walk from the dark into

The Blackest Sea

Buried in the sand of ill regret,
a rifle washes free
Remembrance of a time when darkness coiled,
a snake of Russian greed
Its chambers empty, sights removed,
it could not, would not, fire
Perdition’s tide reclaiming fast
—its shame into the mire

(Warsaw: March, 2022)

The Blackest Day: Revisited

as the Towers die away 
alone on a beach where thunderheads Roll 
where I stood far from
shards of glass fire, horror, disaster
they televised only elemental chaos 
cold rains passed through a nation's heart 
then through my soul, hardened
on that day
that day when the unimaginable was destined
to end in fear
the day the towers came down
an insane

When night falls 
Stay Dark

Premium MemberGrows the Night

Grows the night, stars dance across the sky
Tempting the heart to dream and believe
Washing the blackness with the moon’s hue
Sending down echoes of God’s pure light
~
Grows the night, charming secret visions
Designing sparkles of mirth on mounts
Drifting beyond the sea’s gentle breeze
Breathing true kindness and mystery

Premium MemberBlackest Fragile Friday

Black Friday,
iconic of Climate Fragility,
is designed to transition retail
from red
to black
end of year balance sheets.

Black Friday
is black
good
wealthy
robust
from a competitive corporate perspective.

What feels too seldom noticed,
This capital-acquisition game
is played with ZeroSum win/lose assumptions:

Retail corporations
are more likely to go richly black
as consumer households,
especially marginally surviving households,
urban apartheid neighborhoods,
rural failing family farms,
reach into shallowing pockets
to risk red indebted

Premium MemberThe Blackest Page In the Scriptures -Matthew 26: 20-25

What a terrible passage here conveyed
showing how wicked is the human heart
allowing sin to overtake that person
leading them in Satan's hand in no small part

This is seen in the person of Judas Iscariot
a disciple that betrayed his master
one that made a profession of faith
his heart condition was a real disaster

Judas had privileges beyond many
a chosen

In Brightest Day, In Blackest Night

In brightest day, world peace is gained, 
Compassionate heart heals the hurt; 
The pain is eased wonderfully, 
Pure love carries no grime nor dirt.

In blackest night, war is at work, 
Angry birds fire their wild weapon; 
Crushing the place of sheer silence, 
Without mercy, very wanton.

In shining dawn, the gentle wind
Blows softly in the new

Dancing In Horror With Fate In Blackest Abyss Collaboration With Robert J Lindley

Dancing In Horror With Fate In Blackest Abyss 
Collaboration with Robert J. Lindley 

I walk mountain storm, step out to cut deep its edge
forever tempting that fall from its narrow ledge,
in the midst of ravenous rage and great sorrows
this beseeching spirit begs for more tomorrows;
yet as silence echoes from tumultuous skies
there is that cold ache

In Blackest Where There Be Shades

It becomes so hard to forget a day like today
So close to the sea, so close to the end of forever
The blackness paints too perfectly for words to say
I am to see a life beyond my life to be better

I cannot emphasize enough how much it got me
So many years in the making without realization
Seen
