Cyclical Reminisce

Cyclical Reminisce


Pendulum skips one bang to the bead
Triggers the feeling to turn it off lead
Allows memories to run and circulated
Reminiscing promises you once articulated

Deep in mind are the guilt and regret
Keep looking back and wanted to reset
If only not tempted, no hearts will be broken
If only not lusted, no trust will be fallen

Fridays are bluer since the day of part ways
Laughing is not better than shared as always
Messages are sent waiting for responses
Hoping to be seen even it is now nonsense

Memories suddenly comes in cyclical
The unfold pages comes in unintentional
One day the fate will surely cross again
And surely, that will never cause any pain

Queencliff

2025.5.5

It was the 5th day of winter.
Somehow the weather was still warm,
It tickled my travel's bones.
Yes, I went all the way to Queenscliff Geelong.
I came here several times in the past,
But missed climbing up the tower part.
With it magnificent 360° clear view,
I circulated the platform along the glass windows.
My time of arrival was coincide with
The departure of the ferry Sorrento - Queenscliff.
I casted my eyes to the north-west,
There were three Islands Swan, Mangrove and Rabbit.
The Point Nepean on the far east across the sea.
On the east side of Queenscliff 
There was a stretch of sand beach,
Curving it all the way to Point Lonsdale.
In one hour time, I could enjoy the sun set,
Beyond the horizon of the marina bay.
It would be lovely if I could stay.
But I had to give all that a miss,
Head back to Geelong and then home.
There will be another warm day in winter,
Before the weather drops to low temperature.
I just have to make the trip again
With or without friend in the future.
Where there is will there is way.


Premium Member It Is To Be

the choir chimed in 
a chorus of rebuke 
or stones we'd hurl
abusing the adulteress's skin 
shoot your pocket rocks 
passing judgment comes down 
like diluvial rains splashing
gory-red upon your frocks 

it was to be...  

her luggage, some water-jars
Samaritan's soles cooked &
cured by partiality &
cancel culture, burying stars 
Desert Rose Parchment Gazette 
circulated the dame's tragedies 
watering-hole purists rebuffed her
like Hester of Scarlet 

it was to be... 

but five (4+1) days late 
the state of death 
arose, rank and proud  
with results beyond debate 
Brother Lazarus' fate sealed 
in the tacit tombs
there for the world 
and his women appealed 

none was to be 
ne'er was to be  

Oh, Creator of Earth,
& Heavens outweighs the 
chains of men's destinies 
enters seas of dearth 
that i should gain 
Your cherubic fiddling surceased:
extemporizing treatises in sands
divining springs quenching pain 
How impossibly the author
of Tomorrow and hero
of souls and spine 
of faith, the purveyor
of Paradise and mercy
of the made, despoils
death's feats & fervor.
Selah. Let it be.

Premium Member Oral Poetry



In days old, oral poetry existed
(When most people, including
the authors of poems,and stories, lyricists,
artists,....couldn't read and write.)
as a part of oral literature
which had no titles,nor were the authors known.
Yet, these are from the heart
captivating the listeners.
It flaws like a river ,
with streams falling into it along the way.
It is circulated from mouth to mouth,
from generation to generation,
from the past to the present .
By the way, the contents
of these oral poems have been added to,
and some modifications might have done.
They wove oral poetry while gazing at lush nature
or remembering a loved one.
The lines were tender,
and delivered emotional feelings to the listeners.
Besides,the basis of oral poetry
may also be a love story,an event of patriotism.
or any other event the poet knew.
These oral poems and folk songs 
influenced written poetry and literature.
Written epic poems are also based 
on oral poetry,literature, and folk songs.
These oral traditions are of high standard
and have laid the foundation
of our rich literature,art, and culture.

Premium Member Fight the algorithms

Fight the algorithms
that tell us what to do,
to make us predictable,
unoriginal and bankable.

Have you witnessed how
increasingly bland and homogenous
our lives are becoming?

Choose freedom
avoid the diaries of commerce
that riff on the ubiquity of apps

resist the reductive tropes
of our published and circulated,
perspective customer identities.

Fight the algorithms
with their embedded back-lot
familiarity, built around class
and consumerism.

Try to understand the
vague, inscrutable and
purposefully circuitous.

Or stop overthinking
and embrace liberating surrender.
That’s the path I’ve chosen.

Premium Member can you imagine a ten thousand dollar bill

The largest bill I have seen personally is a hundred- dollar bill
I do not like them
They are not as easy to spend as a twenty-dollar bill
Or a five- dollar bill
The largest denomination circulated was the ten-thousand-dollar bill
I would like to see a photo of one of these
But would not like to try and spend it
The stores turn up their noses at the hundred

Premium Member DANCING CHRISTMAS TREES

All through the forest
A holiday to commence in marvelous
It’s the Christmas trees stance
They will soon dance
A Christmas Carols are Sang
Togetherness being among
The music tempo is circulated up
Dazzle Christmas lights
All shining brightly at night
The Christmas trees are now in formation
It is a lovely creation
All this is happening outdoors
Snow begins to fall
What a way to start the holiday for all
Imagine and dream
The Christmas Trees are all in assembly
Dancing around each other
In distance of glitter is a frozen stream
The Christmas Trees are dancing on cue
They are giving the Christmas preview
Talent at its best
Dazzle of life
The start of Christmas has turned out nice.

Premium Member THE POWER IN OUR WORDS

It’s odd…when you stop to think about it…
once it’s formed within our mind
how a word…any word
has no meaning until it has been read…
until is has been heard.

Our words on paper have no meaning…no one will ever heed them
If the paper is not circulated…if there’s no-one there to read them.

Our words we’re thinking of are useless…no one will ever get near them
If they remain unspoken…if no one is there to hear them.

It is an awesome responsibility we’ve been given:
The power to spread joy or heartache with each and every word…
Once they have been written…and read…
Once they have been spoken…and heard.

I wish we understood more how the words we use and how we use them
make other people feel.
How our words can create in others everlasting joy…
or scars that never heal.

I wish we’d all try a little harder to release into the world 
words of happiness and joy…
and limit words meant to hurt another… to debase, demean…destroy.

I wish we were more adept at using words meant to be gentle, tender and kind
and allow the harmful words…before we use them
to dissolve back into the recesses of our minds.

My Mother Is Nature

The fountain of God's love 

Her thighs are the roots of cotton tree 
And the ground on which my feet first tasted 

Her hands are the gravity that held me 
when I thought I could fly without wings 
Her fingers still taste like raindrops on my heated body 

The circulated winds from her nostrils 
beathe life 

in her smiles-- I see twinkling stars 
beautiful flowers from the top of Everest 

in her veins-- I see oceans upon oceans 
oceans that tide with the peaceful hands of wave
Her face holds the brightness of the sun 
as it escorts itself every morning
 
In her eyes-- I see winging butterflies being chased by Blue Jay 
and tiger happily racing with antelope 
As the branches of her eyelashes stand tall above
 
Her chest holds waterfall canals 
That flow down from mountains built in heaven 

In the heart of nature--I see jewelries 
Gold, diamonds that smile with love

She is as green as Amazon forest 
The sky shows her eyes
And her body is Sahara 
Nature lives in her

Imagine

Imagine there is no pandemic, vaccines and creation of controversy and lies

Imagine there is no wearing of masks and breathing difficulties 

Imagine there are no social distancing and no people going to sleep in hunger 

Imagine there are no barriers between the rich and the poor, that there is no one better than the other 

Imagine standing hand in hand helping the needy as much as we enrich the wealthy 

Imagine if corruption was punishable as much as stolen goods by he who does so only to buy drugs to recompense the apatite and that materialism wasn’t a song of praise and worship from those who have status 

Just imagine if we all go to bed and there is no one hungry or impoverished and that the universe circulated the same for everyone 

Imagine a Nation so united fighting together to stand together knowing that the Janitor deserves the same respect as the Managing Director 

Imagine the value of education eliminating disadvantages, creation of thieves and desperation of people 

Imagine IQ not calculated as being clever but caring and loving

Tenderized

As the tenderizing tenderloin rub his meat.
The antibiotics circulated through his veins 
ran down beneath his feet. The taste is off 
but memorizing my mouth, as I swallow his 
flavors I began to have doubts.

Marinating over night with different flavors, 
as he leaves the fridge I lay to rest. I 
overshadowed the instructions to meat the end,
 I grab the brush to serenade the mood. 
I rub down the kinks.

He's at his peak, as the aroma sets in; my mouth 
waters as his meats slides In. The juices are
 warm as I expected the timer has one second.
 I climax as the time vibrates to the 
end I enjoy every bite until the very end. 
I tenderize that meat well that day.

Social Distancing

S oul of any mem is precious to God
O pen your eyes and see things God's way
C ovid-19 is bigger than any human being 
I ntelligence of men is tested beyond measure 
A ll of you around the world 
L earn new ways to value the soul next to you

D istance yourself from infectious behaviour
I llnesses don't move but people move it
S ocial distancing is one call we should answer 
T o help us combat the spread of Covid-19
A matures-social media entrepreneurs 
N ullify the importance of heeding GVT call
C omic material circulated by the amatures 
I mpair government call to protect its citizens
N ever allow ignorance to blind your vision 
G overnments are servants of God,obey their call.
