People watch figure
Attracts everyone
Motivate body care
Sculpting soul capture.
Black is beautiful
Chocolatey smooth
Healthy, sporty
Pure esthetic.
Dark-skinned Apollo
Living sculpture
Women daydream
Elders forgotten thoughts.

Midst those the second viewed heaven;
Blue based white clouds drifting floating;
Pageantry of coral blues hues;
Greenery trees stance tall seven;
Waves of curling flows waves boating;
Early morning viewing grounds dew;
Those breeze pushes waters session;
Toward my mind heart eyes coding;
So esthetic blue, whites, green view;
Rushing to me stream waves weapon;
Eye gate viewed scene brilliant growing’
Mountain ranged background hangs down dew;
Picturesque, flowing painted earth;
Sculpturesque, landscaped visage worth;

I was pretty sure I had seen the prettiest courtyard
Until I travelled to Greece and saw sixty of them
Each one unique, none of them comparable to another
Beauty in a variety of gorgeous, pleasant ways
Every corner I turned seem to have a new one or two
I wonder if every decorator in Greece is an esthetic genius
I turn the corner into a new faerie land and think they must be

Well what exactly is it you
want
Or would like me to do
?
Well how's about you kindly just try
listening to me for a
Start
Or in fact are those ears attached to
either side of your head
Merely esthetic ornamental and placed
there just for show
?

Shakespeare found nothing esthetic about peripatetic
Kazantzakis and Joyce found it maudlin, bathetic
Dickens and Dickinson thought it alarmingly phrenetic
I’d use the word in my poems, frankly it’s asyndetic*

John’s “journey of high hopes through life’s extremes”
Of “searching poet’s trek while chasing dreams”,
“Heavy load of life”, eloquently shared,
No inner longings of his soul he spared.
Goodness and Gracious – highlights of mankind,
One would suffice; both truly is a find.
Nuanced, his nurtured words cast far and wide,
Depth of his vivid vision - verified.
Once his verse “wraps round tightly like a glove
Leaving our lonely hearts” so full of love!
Following your muse – esthetic journey.
Quotes from “The Journey”,” Longing”

Oh paper town
Oh ghetto
Who's first lick of paint is a
crumbling off and from each wall
beside rising damp in children's
bedroom
With colourful murals and graffiti
clinging onto it's exterior mud
brick facade
An esthetic attempt to butter up
and raise the plight and spirit of
it's broken remnants
Restoring life to the residing listless
dull and sallow faces dwelling in such
grubby unlit spaces
Because where window glass once
lay and sourced light is now boarded
up by cardboard tin or wood in order
to block a draft so cold from
bellowing in
A splash and dash on the outside
to quell the qualms for if not just
a second before one steps over
the threshold
A fighting mantra stating that
even someone as lowly and
forgotten by life as i
Can even have his or her life
and name emblazoned in light's
on a wall for all the world to see
And though in reality or actual fact
it may be only seen by the poor who
reside so to in these ghetto paper
town's
As to me when i say for all the
world to see
This is in fact the world that i
reside in and so to are the people
who mean the world to me

Simplicity seduces stunning symmetrically salivating stimuli
Complexity confounds controlled curiosities calculating clarify
Ambiguous ambitions amplify arousing academics admirable
Mellifluous melodies making magical memories memorable
Poetic pendulums pondering pensive promiscuous pleasures
Esthetic echoes encouraging efficacious emulative endeavors
Deceiving diametrical dilemmas distancing dichotic delusions
Receiving rhythmically ratiocinative raging roaring revolutions
Beautiful breaths breathing benevolent boisterous behaving
Irreducible imaginary immortalizing idling iconic interfacing
Harmonic hemispheres hovering Homeric humble hypnotic
Tectonic transitions technical tantalizing theatrics thermotic.
This poem is dedicated to my friend Andrea Dietrich...whose poetry inspires all
In reference to her latest potd "When Poetry is Art"
Just messing with you my friend...love ya...and Happy! Holidays!
...this poem can also be read backward~from right to left...

Mum asked ?
Why did Dad marry me ?
Because they weren't suited
He was an intellectual deep thinker
Whilst she was a Ditzy Blonde
No glue no ties to bond beyond the esthetic superficial attraction
But till death till they part they remained
Mostly fighting and hating one another barely getting along
Until death did them part

People daily perish so tragically ...
ever dying
to protect things that don’t breathe
Inanimate objects of their desire,
they just can’t leave
So many pulse beings fall in love with inert manufacturing
Mistletoe eyes kiss the chrome,
and chafing lips polish the plastic
Wooden attraction becomes a rotted cleave
When grave fires rain down untimely destruction,
many chose the sheltering embrace
of their stony arm lover
Letting synthetic bonding for the esthetic metal
rule over their survival instincts ...
Fidelity to sparkling glass goes aye shatter fatal
Ever dying to cling to molecular things
that don’t feel
Artificial inanimaticy, it ain’t real
Inordinate affection for the inorganic immaterial
is a terminal expiration date
Bosom caresses for molded figures is cold intimacy
Too many buried souls let their heart bleed vainly
Inanimate things aren’t moved emotionally
to try and help save you in your time of dire need

Beneath a pale sky of bleakest white,
Songs carried by the eastern wind,
The faint sounds of flutes and lesser known cries,
Reveal a surface less skimmed.
The slowest of flicks by a wise older wrist,
With contentment despite all the noise,
A story to tell at the call of five bells,
Displaying of true grace and poise.
Manicured plants, slow songs and arts,
Early Sundays a skew,
To walk on this road, a foreign mind wanders,
To feel one of only a few.
This once was a place of long pondered dreams,
Of esthetic smoke screens,
Of mystery wonder and awe,
Now shrouded behind bureaucratic decline,
Can China be China once more?

Conceived by negative compounds
I came to existence,
Covered in an attractive outfit
An attraction too many
My sisters’ crystal clear
Cold and useful
Could be found at the poles
to regulates the earth’s temperature
My looks a reflection of my
Composition
Gases of all nature, bad bad bad
Negative to plants and animals
Yes I am pink in color
Attractive to the short sighted
Esthetic to the beauticians
Yes I am pink and cold
I bring a negative message watch out
I should be white not pink.
