Gifted golden pen drenched in
Emerald emancipating elegance
Regal red reverie so daring
Sending me singing thinking or dreaming
Humble humorous and socially conscious
Onyx thoughts that hold on to us
Needling patches together so clever
Souls fed by his poetic endeavor
Praying for peace with pen
Engaging his fellow men
Noble and kind gentleman

The person who sent me to You
was none other.
Life remains as always.
revealed between the past and future
where heaven abides.
It is emancipating.
to know nothing
about
words or their meanings,
or of all our symbols
of truth
that must burst into flames
at Your doorstep.
Time still drags this body along,
as if it had weight and reality,
a teacup of Awareness
carries an insane mind
into silence
forever knowing
I Am
this
and none other.

“The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.” John 3:2 of the King James Bible
Miracles indeed smite woe and sorrow
Since the Almighty ignites hopeful glow
Emancipating me from grievous doubts
Surely showing triumph for tomorrow.
Having been conquered by miracles’ bouts
My heart gladly worships with praise-filled shouts
Holding on to Christ’s assurance of grace
Hoisted for divine freedom from guilt-clouts.
Thanking God for miracles midst life’s race
My faith propels me well, strongly to face
Grim realities that shatter great dream
Guarded against pangs of torturous space.
Tasting triumph due to miracles’ scream
My spirit trusts the Lord for service-beam
Watchfully reaching-out to ease pain’s blow
Sharing blessings, along provision stream.

The lump in my throat compelled me to believe.
that once there was a time of festiveness,
which has now turned into a vicious rhythm.
The unrealized desires are reduced to tears,
where the laughter of childhood turned into subdued smiles.
The severance of your own begetter,
aches just like dry spells in a well-plowed field.
One's good spirits become a cage of gloom for the other.
They thought they were emancipating, but who knew they were culminating in something that hadn't even commenced yet.

Oh, how I doo love a didge..
Toned like one of many voices of our great Mother Earth; entrancing and slightly shamanic.
It's how I imagine She hums to Herself, deep in Her rhythmic, rumbling ground.
There's something about the way that humble, all consuming sound
resonates right through my whole body and mind -
I cannot help but find it both soothing and simulating at the same time..
There's nothing quite like how, when one is played really well,
I feel like its vibration is emancipating my soul from every cell.
Give me a long, hollow piece of wood any day.
And someone to breathe down it in that special, circular way.
Put a good rhythm on their tongue,
and let The Love inflate their lungs,
and I'd more than happily spend from dawn 'til dusk
laid flat,
heart open, eyes closed,
being didgeridoo'd at.

“Rosalie, oh Rosalie!
A contrast of beauty, with a saturation of rufescent
What every heart intercepts when they have reminisces
which never transcends herself when she is mistakened of fluorescences
Rosalie, oh Rosalie!
She harmonizes one's life, with her humility of delight
Yet her dashing aspects are remarkable in light
For not once she palettes a stage of fright
Rosalie, oh Rosalie!
When she lifts the flushed rose to her blushed rubescent lips
The curtains of the heavens began to lift
for her chastity is for what relieves rift bids
Rosalie, oh, Rosalie!
She enriches one’s future,
She diminishes their past,
She lives her present; from beginning to last
Rosalie, oh Rosalie!
Her spikes are what prick one’s heart
So emancipating apart
Which devotion comparts
Rosalie, oh Rosalie!
Is she not just a hallucination of humanity's delusions?
Or is it just component of revolution;
So ruinous of this only luminescence of faith
Or might it be something to only recall my presence late?
Rosalie, oh Rosalie!”

The essential constituents of captivating charisma
align with the fabric of consuming sincerity,
find the adornment of internal beauty
spread invisible film on deceptive external ugliness,
remove the distressing doubt that it can’t be irresistible.
An overwhelming humane faith fosters the faculty
of being aware of depressing deficiency of the being.
The demonstration of the cherubic charm
expresses the life-force that tows the tide of lure,
inundating the landscape of deserted hearts.
On the seraphic shore of the sublime soul,
the supreme designer makes the destined inner circuitry.
The pattern creates innate magnetism of divine beauty,
attracts the consciousness essence of mortal elements
to the emancipating aura of amazing bliss.

It starts with a quivering lip
threads a touch from patches
to little swatches of fabric from
various phases various places of us
the first shirt you gave me
off your very back
was gray with a cartoon face
the hat from your kinky head black
and I use a piece of that
the jeans that romanticized everything
on that patch you asked
me to be your destiny
and on this very cloth
relic of the day we lost emotional innocence
the day we became familiar
it is peculiar we made love but never had sex
without emancipating clothing
we made love like a quilt
and it was my first strawberry passion.

"The Emancipated"
See all the pretty words
perched on a tongue
like singing birds
Anagnorisis from
the Poetic Aristotle
effecting affectations
from the fangs
a cutting
100th monkey
Sting the truth
like a bee sipping nectar
kissing blooming minds
masked in soliloquay
lines of perdition
beckoning mushrooms
atomic fusion
drunken swallows
all sing in flattering discord
ribbons of melting harmony
red bolsheviks in their own time
tightly strung emancipating
crumbs of such simple
knowledge
found in golden maize of Rhyme
The Cherry Orchard
It is sold
In their final days

NONPARALLEL NATURE
Novel Nature notifying nobility
Overwhelming opulence of resources to explore.
Nonparallel nonpareil
Pretty precise in perfect purity
Amazing astounding administrative affinity.
Rustic raw yet rolling on refinement
Attaining artistic adaptive ability
Liberal Law of Nature supernal
Lovely lovable luminous in diversity of life.
Emancipating eccentric ecstasy.
Leading smartest role in stirring emotions
Nurture Nature for future.
Alluring attracting your kinship to Nature.
Twined turbulence and tranquility.
Undaunted unconquerable unbounded unique ubiquity
Radical rational reasonable reality.
Enhancing evolution on excitement enrapturing, exulting admiration.

In the midst of an emancipating destiny she flies
Birthed in the contest of fire and ice
Spreading her wings to light the endless sky
In the lurid darkness she illuminates the Prize
Seeking those with virtue and genius to find her
For the wisdom she holds in the moment and in the future
She chose me to be carried to my most distant unknown
To empower my regard for the atomity of flesh and bone
She carries us along to find the Great Mystery
In her gentle flutter to the tide of our own history
For she glitters with the secret of the simple substance I am
To be consummated to the gathering of all souls - the lion or the lamb
In the midst of an emancipating destiny she flies
In the lurid darkness she illuminates the Prize

We should be freeing and emancipating
the poor with opportunity
—not underwriting their poverty with welfare
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)

Standing at the bow of the rugged ship,
Blistering tears cue up in the wrinkles
Of faces worn weary with anguish;
Uncertainty becoming a bleeding wound.
The raging storm swells with tormenting waves
Splashing on the shores of human dignity and honor;
Leaving the despotism of doubt and fettering fear
Frothing in the humidity of the politico-sands of time.
Yet, despite the toil and fatigue of the hour,
Hope remains on the horizon--rising with the sun;
And the searchlight of truth will dissipate the cloud of deceit
With its enlightening rays emancipating lost, stiff-necked souls
Seeking stillness of peace in the coming raging winds of change.

I tried to communicate with you
Bared out my soul on my lips and my emotions through my words
Made plain my darkest, most embarrassing insecurities and needs
Not withholding for a moment anything that put me at unease.
I laid my doubts before you: my heart battered, bruised and broken
Craving tender responses, and the gentle soothingness of your reassurance
But words led to arguments, and arguments to distance
As we traded accusations across like terpsichoreans in an impassioned dance
Till suddenly I found myself lonely... and alone
All because I had dared to dislodge emotional cornerstones
So words no longer became the path to emancipating my emotions
I swallowed up my feelings and let them simmer like a slow-brewing potion
For if you cannot feel my pain, laid plain through my words
Then perhaps you can perceive them in my Silence...

Swirling conscience
twirling,endless motions
infinite commuting commotion
tranquil,sweet Mother nature serene peaceful scenes
disquieted murmur of clouded dreams
swimming with trepidation in the worlds murky sea
obviously forgetting natures high's, and beautiful trees
noisy ruckus, anxiety ridden uncivilized under sea
feeling's for emancipating for needs
beautiful, pristine of nature will agree
enticing, alluring, seductive, she wants your peace
imprisoned mind's cannot see what beauty lies for our smothered souls too see.
