Distractions
Do I want this? Your hands on my skin You’re gripping my chin With every kiss I just want to be Nurtured Your hands explore further My mind resists But my body continues I'm not gonna miss you I reminisce To a time I felt scared I wasn’t prepared This isn’t bliss My body feels dirty I smile, flirty Why do I do this? I put myself in places With so many...

Distractions What falsely makes you happy Could be your destruction Cos there is no paradise in hell Most hell feels like heaven nowadays So trade your ways with cautiousness Let your conciseness be alive Their is power in thought So picture your life by yourself Be the author of your ways Be the origin of...

Our land of stars and stripes, now glows, with screens that flicker in hallowed halls. Entranced humans shuffle, with eyes fixed below, on small gadgets that have us enthralled. Should the Statue of Liberty, our symbolic girl, be holding a smartphone up to the world? While tweets fly like eagles and hashtags swirl, foreign disinformation trends as fast as it’s purled. In lunch...

Of jaded muses and digital distractions - POTW
The allure of mused poems, No longer visits this nonchalant psyche. It trickles now, once a roaring torrent Now a lazy stream Am like a desultory jaded heaven Where starry jewels once decked the night, But are now drossy shadowy blackholes, And sparks and dreams, Are ripped in the accretion disc. No longer avid, but seeking meaning in the mundane. No longer enraptured by...

Sleepless
I lay awake once again Unable to clear my head. I wish this storm of thoughts would cease, And allow me to go to bed. I dream about the future. I reminisce about the past. I think about things I could have done. A funny thought crosses my mind and makes me laugh. I try to comprehend the vastness of space, And speculate about...

Minor distractions
Wait beyond the earth is doomed. Sun grew hungry, thus consumed. Further wait until time tires. Watch as all motion expires. Unstitch all that has been sewn. Witness that which can't be known. Mould a shape that's yet unseen. Remake all that has not been. ...

Some-- In Its Entirety
In the ‘some’ of a number, a zero gets lost. In the idea of ‘some’, values turn frost. In equating ‘some’ with ‘some’ of the few, A territory is gained and a battle renewed. With ‘some’ of the trained, the Devil tenders right. Married to ‘some’, lovers are at plight. Though spirits blossom in ‘some’ of the prime, Yet...

Distractions
Confusion hangs in the air like lanterns not yet lit I look around in a daze, as if I have gone astray memories somber, like watercolors flooded in gray, I shrink in the silence that floods the horizon. I am distracted this moment, my mind elsewhere of things I want to do, places I often dream...

If you ask our NewsMax, America One fueled, republican congressmen who won the last presidential election - they’ll pretend that they don’t know. But hey, these are the guys, the “honest brokers” we can trust, to figure out UFOs. These republicans disavow Trump’s clear treason. If they refuse to follow those clues, like video captured by the guilty themselves...

mind unspooling easing my way into the garden to prune the over eager feeling well in a loosely-strung way excitable dog threads my legs I am centered balanced dog now barking chasing squirrels dog kicking up flustered clusters of sparrows doors slam neighbors yell dog pissing on the roses strategic withdrawal dead heads still un-dead wind whip's-up a spiky shudder gin and ice snatched from the fridge running for cover...

There's an intuitive notion That the world is bound By the grace of something That'll never be found Hatred and heartache Spread, across the lands Love stays oblivious While marching in bands Intentions grow strong For the good of us all But the outlook is Blick With a group so small Growth in the numbers Who's had growth in the heart Will eventually see that...

Distractions, Detractions and Lack of Actions
#"Don't Turn Away!" At least of all, NOT today! You ARE being spoken too, yes YOU! This goes far beyond mere noise, and the volumes are deafening! What am I referring to? The Ultimate Gifted Voice, "WITHIN". But, sometimes we opt to ignore it... And yet, it chooses NOT to ignore us! How fortunate is that? What a REPLENISHING supply! The GOLDEN...
