Roger Deane at a South African college
And team, caught our singularity
The black hole, so Einsteins Relativity
Does not apply here, physics' knowledge

Amazing that at the center of our Milky Way
There is so much outside of usual gravity
Space-time, if a fabric, has massive debris
One of these swallows all light, passers by!
NOTE: I like to think of black Holes as great recyclers & cleaners. That found in our Galaxy is named Sagittarius star
Mirrored Fragments
Awakened thoughts finally faced, familiarity of days retraced..
In the depth of one soul a whisper is seldom seen, a peaceful plea in a passive scream..
Clarity magnified between the words etched..
An imagination pushing boundaries far fetched..
Welcome minds madness once misplaced..
Where demons lurk and fears are faced..
A tug of war between a sin and a mistake, the lightest of touch still keeps them awake.. I hibernate behind all that was once innocent, only to trip and fall without repent..
A glimpse caught in mirrored fragments
Shadowed relevance in distant elements
Reckless thoughts forming fractured lines
A lifetime of poetic prowess redefines..
By Shannon Deane & Michael J Falotico
Day gives in to night
Crimson hues paint the sky
A kiss from Heaven

many personalitys see,

re
Shannon Deane' 'me versus me'
Half brained is normal if with me,
sucking boiling hot black tea,
hundred degrees in the shade outside,
Aussies drinking hot tea n scones inside,
indaduibatly....

Busy reading a curious series
Wrapped in the fantasy
Written within it's covers
A story of Vampirates
A complex tale of lives entwined
Destiny shaped before life
Journeys embarked upon
While sailing the open seas
Set in a time ahead of now
Throughout the past plays it's part
Challenges faced by siblings divided
Worlds apart their loyalties tried
Enchanting descriptions of a world apart
Removed from reality
Still within its embrace
An epic tale of adventure
Thousands of pages
To tell its full tale
A beautiful story
An original, truly one of a kind
Wanting the story to continue
For the characters journeys
To not be through
To pick up where we left off
Sailing through the seas
In search of answers
Of treasure
And more
Twins who were once sheltered
Exposed to untold dangers
Denied the truth
To who they are
Centuries of time
Riddled with tales
Of more than just the twins
Conner and Grace
But alas the tale is done
With their unusual stories
Left swinging in limbo
So onto the next one

Who is that staring back at me
Go away on the count of three
Do I know who you are
Can I wish upon a star
Questions of who I should be
Not just demons do I fight
Thoughts drift easily through the night
Myself against me
Trying to break free
To do what I know is right

"I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you"
A Rambling Poet ~
A gift of sublime
To create beauty from pen
Inspiration all around
Emotions beckon
Waiting for their release
Finding their way through our dreams
The subconscious mind
A relative mystery
Lost words unable to find
My masterpieces
Echoes of yesterday
Dreams of tomorrow, today
Beginning anew
Confidence reinforced
Time to better myself
Spread my wings and fly
Free to wander and write
Creating beauty from pen
Dipped in the sublime
Wrapped in a fantasy world
Fresh with raw emotions
Marking who I am

"Fragments and crumbs of life, all the little pieces"
John Ruskin, 1853
I knew in the beginning
What I wanted in life
Where my writing might take me
Where I might end up
Only plans change direction
Paths change course, unwanted
When passion burns bright
It can set your heart free
Life's greatest triumphs and tragedies
Remain alive in our memories
Forever etched among my pages
Statements impacting others
To more than just survive
Wipe clean the subconscious slate
Prepare to be inspired by life's events
And the importance of all the little pieces
"I believed that life began when you believed in yourself"
Won 4th place

If you can find me, you'll know where I am
Face in a book, quiet as a lamb
Matter not where I sit down
If I look like a clown
Writing for self preservation I am
Waiting for my star to shine
For the world to know those words are mine
Two rainbows for luck
Praying I don't really suck
Sometime soon everything will turn out fine
I find inspiration in many ways
Writing till the end of my days
The stars will align
Revealing sublime
Masterpieces never only a phase
Cancer is the sign
Zodiac born into being
Moods captured with words
Trusting the tide
Water is my element
A part of my soul
Crabs shelter their home
Hard top shell, soft heart below
Sensitive I am
Twelve months in the year
Horoscopes all around us
Cancer is my sign

" I heard an angel speak last night and he said "write"
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Write what your heart desires
As I face the angel before me
My life fast forwards and rewinds
Many questions left unanswered
Angelic faces etched in stone
Welcoming lost souls forever home
To where the light shines for eternity
An ending to their restless roaming
Reminders of once was
Of what there is to come
Faith and love surrounding
Angels in cemeteries sometimes smile

Alice was her name, the girl in the story
A Journey of self worth and unwanted glory
Although from what I have been told
The story was just beginning to unfold
Many characters could write their own book
Amazing lives to be seen, come take a look
The Cheshire cat my favorite I think
Disappearing with nothing more than a wink
Alice's adventures written on many pages
Dreams and reality coming in stages
Wishing for my own Wonderland
To live within the story would be ever so grand

Could YOUR Heart, hold all the TEARS; that Life has shed in LOVE
Would YOU Gallantly suffer, Sorrow, for the Memory of Eternal LOVE
Should YOU empty an Ocean of Tears to revive YOUR Everlasting LOVE
Does YOUR mind Reminisce, about the First Kiss, igniting the Flame of LOVE
To Be Cont.
With LOVE ALWAYS and FOREVER, YOUR Liege…HG
