OF US AND DISMANTLED JUSTICE
Equality smashed!
Slammed down by the new,
Unjust sledgehammering laws:
Scales of justice ripped away
And thrown in the junkyard:-
Time to reconstruct:
It’s human nature’s springtime;
Let’s rebuild justice:-
Yes, it’s reconstruction time,
Let’s get to rebuilding:-
With divine guidance,
Let us tear down injustice
With tools of repair:
True justice reconstructed;
Thus, making this country great:-

Fragile resolve aspires
to capture the residual rainbow,
weaves the lattice of life
with spectral ribbons,
turns into a self-destructive
psychosis syndrome
that fails to fling
the insane illusion
in the cloud of dreams,
for it has hypnotic leverage
on the mind,
mangled by
s t o r m.
Wedged by the splitting bevel
of slashing time,
the frail fragments of failure
get lacerated from life,
scatter on the path
to the rainbow,
yet untraveled,
meanders marooned
in debris of derelict dreams,
disappear down the deep sinkhole
of dusky oblivion.
In lucent mystique mind,
transmuting thoughts
flash on
ebony emotions.
Absolved of self-qualm
psychic crystal sparkles
in sense stars’ aurora flare,
traces the prime trajectory
from the cosmic soul’s
nebulous abyss,
within.
In the mesmeric meadow
of the inner topography,
seraphic shadows dance mystified
with gorgeous sequined glitter
of the sensuous stardust
in the tune of
buoyant bliss.
The discernment mindscape
makes the montage
of the existential rainbow,
d i s m a n t l e d.

Broken stem of a flower
Grafted in the rain shower
Placid Frozen desired passion
Roots of grounded lasses
Everlasting stand before the sun
Petals a blooms before The Shining of the Sun
Dawns the Moon
Cascade fully blossomed blue realignment in June

The show completely whirls me over.
Each device has its stance grow closer.
Dreams are being shattered in some way.
Lead to tying up a chain of fears of dismay.
You can't fly with an extensive period of pain.
Farewell kisses are altogether the grave vain.
The trip of a wet bird is bound to decay.
How leads are adored softly by a waterway.
Leave on an excursion to greatness.
Divine love streams from the fireless.
Take a walk around the radiant weather.
Initial impressions of a bizarre culture.
Wind, trill, age flying ring a mighty bell to mind.
Is it fair to note death now that I'm outside?

I am a collection of dismantled almosts. -Anne Sexton
Locked in a memory I labeled 'Remember When"
are scraps and bits of what might have been
A finished puzzle, except for one missing piece
and shards of my heart, in pain without release
Both dismantled, but only one of them bled
and cannot be mended with needle and thread

Fragile resolution aspiring to capture the rainbow
weaves the tapestry of life with spectral ribbons,
turns into a self-destructive psychosis syndrome
that fails to dispel the illusion in cloud of dreams
for it has hypnotic leverage on my mind in storm.
Wedged by the splitting bevel of the slashing time
a frail fragment of failure I feel sliced from my life,
scattered on the path yet untraveled to the rainbow
that lies dismantled in debris of derelict dreams now,
disappearing down the deep sinkhole of dusky oblivion.

I'm yours, flesh and bone
I surrender all to you
My walls dismantled
My untold secrets laid bare
All my virtues and vices

DISMANTLED CREATION
For life is not as easy as thou thinkst,
Going through all this protocol wasn't easy
For I racked my brain laboriously.
Is my effort avain?
And the best is yet out of me
Never give up they say
But it still don't yield positive.
Dismantle is at work!
For rustication is possible
Blame me not for thy perish
For thy don't seem successful.

Dedicated to human realm.....
when it began...
menace of life made me die in each breath i took,
betrayed by the command of nature, in each phase my head shook...
shattered achievements..
confounded the mundane for whimsical supremacy,
likely to be fascinated towards the obscure prophecy..
tyrannical truths unfolds,
shadows of ego enlightened in my undesired destiny,
life being invaded by all omnipotent agony...
soul in conflict....
rather would i adrift to a breathless birth,
for the glimpse of perfection would pertain my worth.....

Round heels of crumpets,
aromatic lavender jam.
Poached eggs in a skillet,
succulent portions of ham.
An awakening stretch had heralded
a yawn mouthed long and loud.
While rain fell down in splatters
from the dark pewter clouds.
Dated Macintosh slicker,
hoary exhausted gum boots.
Tenacious steps into nature
in search of family and roots.
The fallacies of the wind
twists hair into long plaits.
Across wide fields of enchantment
new journeys await.

Dream dismantled
I fell in love with an
Petite, fawn brown angel
Somehow I Didn't know it
In return she yearned
compassion, understanding patents and dedication
But I was unable to show it
Despite my jaded ideologies
my unwillingness To believe
My angel never selfish
Always sharing her halo with me
Obtuse and naive
Within a certain degree
Unaware and mislead
My mental baggage
Made it impossible to conceive.
My pursuit of happiness
Was finally achieved
Truly a blessing in disguise
in the form of a friend
Reduced to a Dream dismantled
Never to be seen or heard from again.
