Defining Who You Are
The overcoming of obstacle
Is defining of who yourself are
It's a symbol of courage and firmness
This is the quotient of dividend and divisor
The product of multiplicant and multiplier
The sunny after the rain
The peace after the storm
The medal of valor after the war torn
The graduation of all the studies
The invention of miticuluos innovation
And the beacon of

Freedom in my eye
I always wanted to be free
I always wanted to be me
I always wanted to look past the haze and confusion so I could see what I need to see.
I never want to be tame
I never want to stay the same
I never want to be hindered and fused, destined not to choose weather I need to

Defining Life
The ebullient fluidity of ecstasy cascades with charisma
across the enchanting fabric entrenched in the valley of time,
changes the tenor with the reflection of imaged chromatic sky
on the parchment of the delightful dawn and the dulcet dusk.
On the convivial canvas of sanguinity the emotive artist
paints the poignant panorama of the designed dreams,
perceives

Defining a Poet Laureate
In words that dance, a poet's grace,
A laureate's soul finds its embrace.
With verses vivid, tales unfurled,
They paint emotions, a world advanced.
Their quill, a wand of rhythmic might,
Crafts symphonies in darkest night.
From heart to ink, the journey's grand,
They wield a pen as magic wand.
They capture dreams in vivid hue,
Reflecting life in every view.
With language as their

The Coming of Summer the Fear of Fall
The Coming of Summer The Fear of Fall
David J Walker
Half-past every euphemism defining
The truthfulness of youthful youth
or
The youthfulness of truthful truth
Crumbling behind the chime of clocks
And locks of hair lopped off along the way
Today is
Today is
Today
Listen for the pitter-patter of
Little feet
Catching up
Spinning calendars
Faster
Faster
Summer is calling
A fearful Fall
Is all

GPS location - reach any destination
Artificial intelligence - computer brain takes precedence

Defining Moment
they say forgive and forget
remember and hold to account
seems to be frowned upon
and memorable events take a while
to manifest digest and process
narratives change with the core
at every reason and heart
‘everything is wrong and it is all your fault
what exactly you will have to find out yourself
I will put our relationship into a drawer
and possibly

Defining Poetry
Words trapped within the mind,
sounds traveling through time,
placed upon parchment with rhyme,
entering each soul sublime.
None perfect until it hits the ear,
then harmony becomes near,
relaxing thought’s without fear,
putting love into one who is dear.
Deep and light with delight
turning on your inter light
capturing other souls out of sight
tantalizing the mind at night
Becoming one of two with one

I, Zombie, Part Ii: the Defining
In my zombie time
I see no reason or rhyme
For the Monster mine
Where is drawn the line
Between the soul and the mind
That it hides behind
There light will not shine
In darkness cold and unkind
Rooms it cannot find
Pain that tears and binds
Fear to fetter and confine
Just some of the signs
Screaming in my head
The evil one wants me dead
So,

Defining Vs Non-Defining
To use “that” or substitute “which”
Knowing this would make me quite rich
Wrong words are a glitch
That we hate and do switch
Since an editor’s ire is a b*tch
Author's note: I have been writing technical material for the past year, which has taken all my creative energy. I have missed many of the wonderful poets who
