Embeds Poems

SOUL MEMORY

 SOUL MEMORY  

Aligning core below to above
Sirius clapped in glee
urging group into Time out of Space
Pyramid, triangle of my refuge 
and direction

Mercury watched soul circling Squinx 
Dogons ancient guiding mission 
bronze arms encircled axis
Africa cracked from Asia
Amma rejoicing 

I knew not then
that in a Southern land I
were to disembark to
stand firm with fearlessness
time-split generational embeds
with carbon and consciousness 
oxygen the catalyst 

myrrh rained down
to cleanse 
Last Supper was still to come

Visible

Getting hard to hide here,
Wanting to fully disappear,
Anxiety has got a chokehold,
This demon has gotten bold,
Talon's buried deep into me,
Try to run but cannot flee,
Each struggle darkness embeds,
Pulling heavy burden sleds,
Ground has turned to tar,
Unable move forward far,
Strain becomes to heavy to bare,
Chokehold's now stopped my air,
Gotten to hard to hide here,
I'll never fully disappear.

Premium MemberBoundless Bliss


“When divine lotus blooms within, 
life becomes a feeling called bliss”- by Poet


Life desiccates derelict 
in the desolate desert,
infuses perennial peace 
of placid oasis in heart.  
Sacred sublimity, 
felt in serene essence,
embeds in devout sanctum. 
Edified soul lights up bleakness, 
perceives divine grace, 
boundless bliss embraces life.

Premium MemberAmerica's Decency's Gone

Where has America’s decency gone
    Long time passing
  All the folks who support Hamas
   would thrill to Auschwitz’ gassings   

  Hamas rapes, burns and slaughters Jews
    Palestinians celebrate these ‘heroes’
  Their American supporters don’t want Jews to fight back
    The number of foes killed will have too many zeroes  

  No matter that Hamas embeds its troops
     in Gaza’s hospitals and schools
  Or that they use human shields
     to pad the numbers killed urban war yields…

  Meanwhile, Hamas blocks food and humanitarian aid
    from ever reaching civilians
  As their fat-cat leaders luxuriate in Qatar
    drinking and dining in pavilions

  Where has America’s moral compass gone
    to support monsters like Hamas…
  Those who scream ‘from the River to the Sea’
    would eliminate each and every Jew ~ Nazi brutality to surpass

Premium MemberGreatest story yet to be told

Somewhere on another world, in a far away galaxy 
Aliens built a quantum-scope, our world they could see
I also built a similar contraption, and maxed out the lens
Now I witness these ETs observing earth, but in a weird tense 

See, as they zoom in closer, it’s dinosaurs they view, not me!
This is no illusion, nor does it defy relativity
I’m in their far off future, watching them observe our distant past,
I spot a T Rex on their monitor, Barney I called him, for a laugh 
Now I live stream earth, via a planet no one has ever heard
even though the creatures I see, are 66 million years dead

Everything observable that has ever happened
embeds in photons racing through space
All we need to unlock them, is quantum technology 
in the right time, pointing to just the right place 

I hope you follow my postulation, the implications seem insane 
But what good is science fiction, without stretching out our brains 

Goddamn! here’s a thought, about this poem
Say on a planet, merely 2000 light years away
If by chance they’re observing Jerusalem
Christ son of man, we could yet live stream today!

Premium MemberPlatitude Plateau


Up the delicate dale 
of latticed life,
at esoteric edge 
of sinking sky,
hermit horizon 
shimmers sensuous,
glows paled passion. 

On convolute contours 
of scrambled dream, 
whirlpool desire 
swivels in inert stream, 
arcane mindscape 
usurped unsculpted 
in twilight obscurity. 

In platitude plateau,
the final flow
originates inspired,
ordained for
integral fusion 
with supreme sea, 
the end embrace 
of sublime silence.

Suffused whelmed
with sunrise hues,
longing precipitates,
perpetuity illusion
embeds eternity efflux,  
carries virtually
the vibrant soul 
to the buoyant bay 
of bliss.

Woman Hides Man

In a woman such a man hides;
Alike, He rimes better with She. 
More sense, She makes with He. 
 
Because she embeds him; 
He always consults she,
To produce clear sound; 
And engender one great power in unity.

Our Birthright

A proprietary hold on God,
religion does proclaim

Defining what we know inside
our souls will they reclaim

The Cross or Torah, Buddhist lore
each ritual decries

What can’t be owned or scripted pure
through centuries of lies

Divinity a birthright deigned
for those who search to find

What God embeds in every soul
—that structure can’t define

Premium MemberBroken Mirror's Strategy

A gutted mirror invents a tangled human scheme
My back might be found crooked from the jabber,
A puddling curb tried throwing the twisted dream
None bound for the scope spawned by a blunder.

My back might be found crooked from the jabber
Singing in heaven embeds tune of moral goodwill,
None bound for the scope spawned by a blunder
After a few years, you'd be ditched with side-will. 

Singing in heaven embeds tune of moral goodwill
Straying guilt whetting shock and clear dismay
After a few years, you'd be ditched with side-will 
The ridiculous concept of a fantasy hiding way. 

Straying guilt whetting shock and clear dismay
The abstraction of waning grace is a little hazy
The ridiculous concept of a fantasy hiding way,
Tons of metal swords shattered by bared facility.

The abstraction of waning grace is a little hazy
A puddling curb tried throwing the twisted dream
Tons of metal swords shattered by bared facility
A gutted mirror invents a tangled human scheme.

Premium MemberOf Infinity

Big Bang’s unfaded sound echoes in the universal core 
In eternity the divine light transformed into matter
Material entities remember the hymn of yore
Resonating with the melody of the creator.

Everything born embeds the waves of primal sound
In all hearts it composes the music of the cosmos
With shared harmonic chord they’re all bound
From one celestial harp all the rhythms arose.

Life and nature create the classical symbiosis symphony
Oriental ‘ragas’ made melodic rain from melting cloud
Blazed the forest making dancing inferno in trees
Orphic hymns of rocks made the Greeks proud.

As strings of life’s essence play the music of genesis
In the heavenly ambiance of the perpetual beauty
Convivial man and animal transcend nemesis
They all listen to the song of infinity.

Kiloton Burst

Hirosimizing,
Nagasaki impacts,
Atomic bombing pejors.

Scary scabs began,
Debris of recoil doomsday,
Fetus fleets on their way out.

Mushroom cloud embeds,
Tympanic torn by air blast,
This atrocity noted.

Premium MemberGod Smiles Upon Those In Love

Soul linking of pure hearts is a wonderful gift
Marvelously done in a natural and kind way
The world as we know it takes on a special shift

Powerful feeling which makes an incredible day
God smiles upon those souls who fall in love.
Enthusiasm and joy embeds self, insured to stay

Angels are cheering silently from abode above.
The world wants everything to work out perfectly.
As gentle and quietly as the softest turtledove.

No matter where or when your soulmate might be,
I hope you live in peace and faithful harmony.

I See You Crying

I see you crying 
Have you been reading my book?
Did you see your name?

Tenderness, sentimental attachment
Tears shedding fondness,
Did my love for you
come into your heart?

Thoughts of you embeds awareness 
A fact in my minds eye.
A gesture of form
integrated into words

A deep love I share
silently, I whispered;
I saw you crying.

Premium MemberImagination

Somewhere on another world 
in a far away galaxy,
Intelligent life forms built a telescope,
so powerful our planet they could see

I also built a similar contraption
then maxed out the zoom,
Now I witness these same beings 
observing earth from a room 

And as they zoom in closer 
it’s dinosaurs they see, not me
This is no illusion,
nor does it defy relativity 

I’m in their far off future
watching them observe earths distant past,
I spot a real T Rex on their monitor
Barney I nickname him, aghast!

I’m live streaming earth 
via a planet no one has ever heard,
Even though the creatures I see
are 66 million years dead, 
We humans have not evolved yet 
for we’re light parsecs ahead 

Every observable thing that has happened
embeds in photons racing through space,
All we need to unlock them is technology,
and be standing in the right place

I hope you follow my postulation
these implications are quite intense,
What good are our imaginations
without trying to make some sense. 

Wow! here’s a thought about this poem
say on a planet 2000 light years away,
If by chance they observe Jerusalem
Christ son of man! what more need I say

Dawn Is Breaking the Night

Different realities, life embeds
Every day, valleys and plains, we walk
Also, mountains, hills and rocks, we climb
Fights we win and battles defeat us
Such is the life of a human being

Night comes to fling us into the bed
Nightmares, we affront to govern our ambitions
Hurdles we confront in dreams; wasps sting our faces
Our faces and aisles inundated with sweat
To end up tasting honey and milk
To a human being, such are his dreams

The sun’s beam has defeated the long night 
Horrible had been the darkness 
Hard it was to find the path in the dimness
The night is calm but hugely petrifying  
For surrounded by obscurity, we cannot see.
Disgusting, nights are often

No darkness resists the mighty sunlight
Mountains shrink; to then see green valleys
Audacity and resilience restore  our ambitions 
Through hurdles, we often go but to new life, we come
Daniel, Jesus, Job, Jonas, Paul and Sarah of the Bible, inspire us
We can now chant the melody of triumph
