subtlest we are ~stuff of star
creation of the elements that spawn
densest is the space
between beginningless origins
and endless blurs
thus, cosmogony visible
vehement impassions
blends the invisible
spreading hues of mahogany,
redshifts dust
stripped of mind,
blurred...
manifested into existence
two worlds collide,
rich in lust

| From lack of reason, to quotients of densest space
| Through the iris of an eye, voids are commonplace
| Stubborn pervasive doubt, projects across the face
| Reassured again when mindsets find a bright place
| Still if one can’t see god, photons will bring a trace
| Filtered through life’s prism, heaven refracts apace

Like the moon pours its light
Over a forest, in silence
Echoing the music of solace
Graceful like the sigh, inspiration
Healing darkness, nocturnal
Blessings venturing beyond the moon
Stars in glimpses of hopeful shimmering
Promising to make wishes come true with their laughter,
Blessing the heart, the soul – with
Knowing that even the densest undergrowth
Feels the melody as the moon
Casts its shaft, elegant, supple – flowing
Over the night, beckoning paradise, stirring the soul to life
As it parts the oaks, the pines, singing
Through the limbs, gentling lyrics
Opening hearts, in the clearing –
Where moonlight restores the joy
Burning through those who know, alone
Isn’t always lonely. Sometimes,
Alone is like a touch from the most holy

on a shoestring diet only going around in circles ~ yo yo
inside a huge tornado just somewhere over the rainbow ~ toto
happily oblivious on a corkscrew rollercoaster ~ ho ho
somersaulting off the high board heading for a bellyflop ~ no no
paratroopers landing awkwardly behind enemy lines ~ go go
highly intelligent beings orbit the densest planet ~ so so

Western Lowland Gorillas are listed as, critically endangered
and they are most numerous and widespread of all gorilla subspecies
They are found in the Congo Basin, that has been humanly disadvantaged
and they in habitat, the densest remote rainforests, for their securities
Western Lowland Gorillas, are slightly smaller than their cousins
and have a brown-grey colour, with an auburn chest that looks muscular
Significant populations exist, in isolated swamps and swampy forests
but large numbers have not protected, the Western Lowland Gorillas
Their threats are poaching and disease, strongly decimating their numbers
by more than sixty percent, in the last twenty to twenty-five years
and they are hunted for bush meat, and captured to become human pets
If all threats were removed, it will be 75 years for their numbers to improve

There are some who want the world,
Well all I want is you
Some people want diamonds and gold,
For me your heart will do
I’d take your smile above the stars,
which glow through darken nights
Your smile shines bright into my heart,
providing it your light
Majestic mountains line our view,
exuding their mystic
But none are equal to your eyes,
so dark and ever deep
I find a rose so petal soft,
alluring to the touch
But none so soft as those your lips,
I long to kiss so much
A gentle breeze can cool the day,
and lighten the densest air
But I much rather gently run,
my fingers through your hair
You can have the world, the riches too,
and keep the stars above
Don’t want the mountains, the rose
or breeze for it is you I love
If you could peer within my mind,
there’s one thing you would see
There’d be an image of myself,
with you right next to me

Keep going
Moves as lively as a sloth
Brain fog of a scatty moth
Stretch as long as crooked cat
Feel trodden on like front door mat
Race as fast as slowest snail
Pain chews through shortest nail
Wrists as heavy as densest lead
Migraine sears through full up head
Fragile legs and shaky arms
Crawl upstairs on knees and palms
But on I plough, smile keep going
Pain inside never showing

I Hear The Call Of The Wild
I hear the call of the wild.
Once again gear on my journey
Through the dark dense jungles.
Exploring the flora and fauna
In the wilderness of the parks
Of the nations densest grounds.
My bones do ache with
Unwanted long peaceful rests.
Families at times a burdensome affair.
The heart remains buried under
Cumbersome affairs.
A life of freedom with the wild
Ensnaring and escaping
From getting ensnared.
Life with roughest and crudest
Challenges to exploit.
An itching foot to traverse
The untrodden dangers
Of the virgin forests.
I the master of my life
The power in my fist
The earth under my foot.
I hear the call of the wild
No strain no restrain.

How does one capture a female heart?
When all her male suitors
Are all over her like stink on an ape?
How do I profess such undying love?
That nothing would stop my romantic advances
Other than the gun she has aimed at my heart
From under her window sill
So I have stated, so I have sung
I would climb the highest mountains
I would cross the stormiest of seas
I would trek across the most arid of deserts
I would forage through the densest of rainforests
Sadly dear I can not come over tonight
As it’s raining out
But my heart still cries out for you, you see
Justin Beiber loves songs echo in my ears
As I long for you tonight
My phone rings and brings me back to reality
It’s your best friend Jenny calling me
I am so sorry
We have to break up
Jenny just kissed me over the phone
She’s awesome

We protect the innocence of the humble
Whether city streets or the densest jungle
We dive into the harsh realities of society's poverty
And show its inhabitants the possibilities of luxuries
We breath new life into those thought to be casualties
And abruptly structure their mentalities,
as such to survive any catastrophe
We bring to the darkness the sun
We
WE
We
We
I alone cant get it done
But a bundling of individuals using vocabulary as weaponry
Are breeding intellectuals that foresee better scenery
We.

Yours..is the most beautiful smile,
the source of all my inspirations;
that star never fading, always outshining others...
And from it joy is emanated;
with the speed of a shooting star,
to earth it falls, for me to catch it without harm...
Mona Lisa may have the most perfect smile,
but yours is the densest and fondest;
so fresh and alive...a blooming flower awaiting light...
The Italian Renaissance's painters and poets could not have imagined
a beauty so delicate, inspiring and pure existing in my time;
Dante's passion for Beatrice turning into deprivation and desire...
What my vision beholds is unexplainably mysterious and yet simple,
purity and innocence reflecting your soul's mirror to make me gaze deeper;
entrust all your thoughts and feelings to me, and I will be your keeper...
Yours...is the rarest and most attractive smile,
and on it unblemished love can be built, a fortress outlasting time;
unafraid, share it with me to explore the wonders of this universe...

Nothing is always the answer.
Everything is sometimes an enhancer.
Value the most important things.
Raise your voice, and say something not too vengeance.
Talk to seomeone who's enough to trust.
Often say things that densest.
Love just enough to be the greatest.
Amaze the surroundings and be the smartest.
Tuition for this world.
Easy as can be.
