Definable Poems | Examples

Seems like a good story

All appearances

Are nothing appearing..

Appearances are not

Definable because they

Are nothing...

Seems like a good story..!!

Definable and Indefinable

Words

Seem to be used

As definable and

Indefinable..

The definables tell

The stories which

Dreams are made of..

The indefinable may

Appear as a 

Simple story

In which

The indefinable 

Applies to all 

Words...

Institutions and Idolatry

Institutions

Attempt to define

What is not definable

So that adherents

Might own a set

Of concepts..

Which when believed

May be idolatrous to

That which can't be

Defined...

Another Portrait of Me

I define myself
without false immodesty
as definable and
indefinable. I'm friend
of beauty, defender
of love guardian
of friendship...
I'm metaphor, I'm carbon
of organic links
I'm quantum physics
and I'm a mystery...
I'm a burning coal black
to light brotherhood fires
chains that link human to divine...
I am light of many lights
and abyss of deep recesses
but always in search of knowledge...
I am the synthesis of all that
inhabited me and inhabit
thanks to the Superior... !
By this grace I am today
POET!



   PS Immodesty as long as i AM sure OF what i AM... A SON OF GOD
        that makes me feel strong AND brave to face adversities OF the   world

Frolic

gravitating together,
       children - puffy fat in snowsuits - grasp 
                 one another's mittened hands, 
in-line unison,
        their fall backwards into a soft ridge of snow
       
kid-laughter dances on the bending wind of cold
       saturated tones of silliness
       freefall play
       repeated in fresh drifts with puckish twists
       newfound layers of warmth
with ruddy, winter-worn complexions

an untroubled time
      in the bruised abundance of snow
                               etched by imprints
winter's candy floss to children 
       life-loving voices that torch the chilling air
                                                               with joy
before heartbreak is definable
before bindings shape their toil

Mushrooming Private Churches In Aba

Close to a scandalous ten thousand,
A reproach to the late Reverend Townsend;
All with their advertising megaphones,
And big dreams-nursing microphones …

In my town of domicile
With odds one can’t reconcile
Which I had some time walked miles
With my job-hunting files
That rather handed me victorious counts
Of how their number mounts:
I tell you: A Religious Harassment,
An unendurable embarrassment;
Ten thousand, really a killing figure
For a town wielding not the circumference of Cairo
And herself not lending to vigour 
Definable with honest biro …

I still maintain: gong hollowed-out halls,
No Rock Musician would try for his frenzied falls;
 A good many of them: a late traveler’s tent,
Whose thanksgivings broadcast Satan’s intent …

Never could be God’s umbrella,
For the catholic Emmanuel and Emmanuella;
Nor altars for demonic exits
From Christ’s patronizing visits …

Christ’s salvation current;
Is unthinkable in rooms of high rent!

Nothingness

Nothingness neither space nor time 
Between then and now, now and then
What was no more, is now...begin
Blank mind with no rhyme
Where there is not anything definable
Best by being here and being gone
Being neither off nor on
Nil, nada, maybe gaseous unrefinable.

Young Again

Young Again***

The true story tells of a boy
Whose near-death experience
Took him on a tour of heaven.
The movie trailer shows the boy
Unable to recognize a photo of his
  Elderly, deceased grandfather... 
Until he sees a photo of grandpa as 
A young man-about-town of which
The boy says, “Oh, I everyone 
Is young in heaven!”  And,
Like most, I felt joy at the idea —
Mostly the idea of joint pain relief
To be found in a heavenly re-gained 
  youth;
But then, I got to thinking:
How young is young-again in 
  heaven?

Perhaps, one should be old enough
To read or use a telescope?
Do our souls become legal at 21?
Is 40 too old to let me reunite
With my husband for eternity?
  What of the souls who did not
Find their love for Jesus until 60?
Is the peak of life definable by age?
Is it the distance or the depth
Of the soul that is sought?  And, 
When is the how that is measured?

Is 33 our cut-off?  I think that is  
When I began real life kindergarten.

Peace Now

Peace is what there needs to be
No more wars, guns or fights we’ll see
How many lost and lonely souls
Or death dealt with destruction as a goal

Fight for the right a slogan made
Definable and needed for this escapade
Is that a slogan or a price to cherish
If we march to our future we may yet perish.

Life

Life is what you live and how you live it
It is not definable nor was it meant to be a playground
If we knew why life exists we would only question more
One day each of us will reach the end of this miraculous journey
The energy that was us will return to the vastness of space
As we are but an extension of the stars from which we were born
From nothingness we came and to nothingness we shall return
As it is this state that puts our minds to rest and brings us eternal peace
So cherish each moment of awareness that this life allows
Turn each day into one that brings help to others and pride to within
For it is only by using your energy in a positive way that you can find happiness
Believe in what you will and let not others sway you from those beliefs
As long as they do no harm to others they are yours and yours alone
The journey's end lies ahead for all of us and is inevitable
Do not leave this Earth with hate and bigotry in your heart
Love is not a weakness, it is the strength that hopefully will define humankind
Let us carry that love in our energy as we pass it to the stars

Evil Flirt

EVIL FLIRT

 The first dance with you,with my flirting beats 
 makes you shy at first.
 the hands on your waist hold you tight in my arms
 with the shyness with a warm hug you dance 
 when you talk like a baby girl and i reply on you 
 like a kid than sweet anger on your face makes me smile
 The melodies sound of water fall ,
 sound of air breeze your long hair touches my face 
 Eyes of undefinable beauty,trying to flirt with my words but 
 its hard to do cause of non definable gorges,adorable,delightful,
 hot,cutie person cant be define with a words

 like color of red cant be take out from a rose 
 taste of green apple cant be delicious as you words 
 my words fall on your feet but your  EVIL FLIRT cant 
 be describe i love you 




 with love all

Beauty

True beauty has no title.
To be beautiful is not to be objectified but in awe of. 
The beauty in your eyes....
Sunlight captured in a smile
Is beauty truly definable?
Or is it more? 

Beauty is a inspired feeling creating joy and excitement.
True beauty goes far beyond confidence 
Beyond the ability to describe... but feel. 

And in every describable way known....

You are beautiful.

Solid Ideas

Solid Ideas

A solid idea has a myriad of concrete corners
When you step off the curb take one with you and iron boots
It follows you with definable mass and weight
With cold hard facts to anchor
A solid idea is one that is frozen in time chiseled
Like a statue of hard marble it is always there
Asphalt and trees fill in the landscape by the river
Solid ideas sometimes bathe in the sun by the banks
Hold on to railings of the ship if you should sail there
Metallic footwear will not save you
If you float down the stream of consciousness 
Or away into the atmosphere
The edges of street blocks are covered in salt
Under a microscope the crystalline structures take shape
Are cube like forms bunched together
A solid idea is one that grips you firm like that
It replaces, displaces water on the brain
I keep my solid ideas locked up
In chains, in basements, in refrigerators
To be taken out on special occasions
Poured over ice to thaw conversations

What

What

What do I do with that love that filled the void
Do I fill it in with a choice that is inevitably yours
To do with it what meanderings in the mind one might contrive 
Which presents definable conditions
That define us inevitably 
What if the world really did revolve around you
Should I simply capitulate and resign
Or is there more to this than what I perceive
And simply leave it as it is
As what was originally conceived 
And leave

Lighthouse

Lighthouse

Time on the ocean uninspired  
The lighthouse beams immortalized
Reaching out forever, tranquility
Holding sky, sea, unencumbered 

Keepers watch gradual gravitation's 
Storm Forces, the ingredients 
The elements congregate, obedience
Lighthouse walls definable, unflappable
