Blitheness bears itself boldly by day,
Surmounting the summit of separative sufferance.
Ridges and ranges below bow in adoring array,
Where homage is payed to the uprising utterance.
Blitheness bears itself blandly by night,
Mollifying the wounds of the worried and the wronged.
Rills and rivulets ripple rosy in sight,
Where brutality is isolated and humanity thronged.

trailed by stardust
the first star of twilight
where i scatter my wishes
glitters like your eyes
locked in the depths of mine
the gossamer breeze
caresses my skin
like a tongued whisper
escaping your winded breath
within the thrust of night
i arch myself blandly
in the contours of shadows
aglow with the lambency of moon
adrift in wishes of you

you are beautiful to me because you are here
you are beautiful to me because you accept and love
you are beautiful to me because you see me with clear vision
you are beautiful to me because you find the patience to beautify my flaws
you are beautiful to me because you put different flavors on creature of habit directions
you are beautiful to me because your realness illuminated my self which is oftentimes blandly dim
you are beautiful to me because you find the good in me through all the hot mess abstract art
you are beautiful to me because Your Self is just Naturally Elegant
you are beautiful to me because you bestow Organic Blessings upon the Nucleus of My Soul
you are beautiful to me because, simply put, you are just a GodSend.....

We laughed so many times
Without even reason
You hugged me when I cried
Blandly called it “rainy season”
We were the closest friends
We might be together
Eternity has found it ends
We could deal with the weather
With the weather in our friendship
With the weather in our attention to each other
We were the same, now we’re another
Of course we’ve become older and more wise
I told you million times – “I’ll be by your side”
You're always in my heart even when we’re apart
We’ve got our history, our own life
I felt so much misery
When we twisted the knife
But thank you for being my former best friend

What do you remember when you look at me?
Can you even say, objectively?
I'm sure it's not a symphony.
A tranquil sea, or being free.
I probably remind you more of anarchy... Of villainy...
My memories consists of acidity, with a touch of futility...
Perhaps scathing dishonesty.
I'll remember you mostly fondly.
Not saintly, blandly, nor blissfully...
And at the risk of me being a mere fallacy, all I ask is that you remember me...

POLITICALLY RELIGIOUS PUNDITRY
and as the tide of mindless babble receded
whispering through the foaming bubbles,
giggling in the lather of their lies, smoothing
the unsuspecting edges of the irate populace
with the blandly pathetic pablum on which
they subsist, a rogue wave broke upon the
barren beach, tore the moorings of the past
from their entrenchments, cleansed the sands
of the needless detritus of failures filth, surged
through all the alleyways of wealth and power,
washing from their hands the stain of greed,
and in withdrawing left a stinging message -
repent - or I return.

Tarnished or burnished, of late from the store.'
reflections of glimmers..a world, outside my door..'
At shards of perception, I squint and I peer."
through the air, my conception still.' much is unclear )
you blandly gaze cold , though re-sending suns rays
a friend without compunction? a mocker of age..
you dazzle the nations; or just one person at a time..'
a help to boxers, of't the ballet! & street artists 'in mime'

Random structures emanating from a withdrawn skyline,
Sewers regurgitating intake on a garbage strewn street with cars parked uniformly,
Haggardly homeless children collect cans whilst discarded food and clothing lie haphazardly scattered on a manicured front lawn,
Myriad noises screeching blandly on the senses as if clamoring to distill distraction,
illusions of grandeur heightened by the possibilities,
once cut off from, now epiphanies arise,
on this brisk stroll through a short alleyway.

From a tree with fertile aspirations
An acorn aimlessly falls to the ground
Grounded by it's nurtured mold
Brokered to an evolving forest
Watered by providence; covered with nature's benevolence
Blown about by truant winds of change
Saturated with Spring's, fertile rains
Smothered by fawning foliage
Trodden under by creatures with ulterior motives
Struggling to find its own space in a cluttered world
Pressed by external forces, but will not crack
Its exterior hardened by ability to adapt, change
Acclimated to a world of material degradation
Finding acceptance through physical congruity
Blandly blending into its colorful world

Explain to me this please...
Evolutionary exsistince is supreme...
(yet so square one...)
Could you ever bleed out your sadistic dilemma.?.
Would you like to export her to me.?.
I will rape myself mentally.!.
I shall post up my own complex.!.
Im now updating my personal problem..To a serious situation...
How about failing your own expirment...losing at your own game.!.
Scream my name....i deserve pain!
Didnt you know?
I couldnt ever help you.!.
Lets attempt to scream aloud but self conciously...Announcing my personal reasoning in
generosity...
Surely, we can refrain from chilling our own spirit...blandly
I must enslave our youth.!.
Keep it breathing...
Revive my suicide...While we dance breifly...
This confession is unique,but lacks honesty.I speak of pure XTC. I can destroy that
which yearns for appropite measures. Proably steal your independence.
Now I beg you please. Sacrifice the dynamite. Hide it in your soul. Share your inner eye
that once focused on indecent expirments on her who sleeps.

Oh the places we won't go,
like post dated postcards
with fictional photographs of you and I
laughing lovers caught up in this
moment
now mourn this trysts annulment
The fading hue of I to you
crashing closer to memory
are the full blown passion ploys
and blissful near misses
...the only places I may recall you fondly
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a never
you gazed dreamy
laughed freely
kissed deeply
and made love sweetly
...no not sweetly, but dirty discreetly
the pure erotic world all yours
behind closed doors
engrossed in post-coital
pillow reminiscing
Moving past the altitude
of fickle courting, began the rouse
singing blandly rehearsed tunes
to retreating corners licking wounds
For confrontation is where you thrive
while in misplaced ire my interest dies
beauty morphs horrid in this beholders eyes
as your idiocyncrasies I now despise
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I may think this time was lost
but I say it's worth noting,
my pen has always moved the most
between the loving and the loathing...

The old man peers at his photograph ,
Looking at the boy he used to be.
“Smile ! – Say cheese “ , says the photographer ,
The youngster murmurs , blandly , "Camembert"
And looks intently at the camera ,
The moment made eternal with a click.
The man looks at the image of his past ;
His image looks back ,from the page.
He sees the picture of his long ago.
The image views its future through a lens.
