The Clouds of Mount Everest - may you ever rest
Flapping without flying. It feels okay. Your scales of fur corrode. A foul, but sweet, but warm, but damp... Scent of something new. You're red and blue tomorrow, Yellow, pink, today. But forever, I'd say grey. You're white, dirtied, pure. Once lost, but now at home. If invaders must die, Make yourself the furniture. You can stain my doormat red, So you can see me before we part. And...

Ode to the tallest mountain peak
O thou world’s tallest mount of might, Like a gawky adolescent, Added hast thou to thy old height, I bow to thy quickest ascent. Thou, with thy siblings so many In the abode of hoary snow, At fifty million years of age, With Eurasian plate had a blow. And where there was a roaring sea There came tall peaks that kissed the sky-- A...

Premium Member 1924 Everest expedition
The broken remains of a mountain climber several thousand feet from precipitous peak, nature had attempted a fair burial with snow, but some parts remained exposed to air, the right leg had crossed to protect the left, in an attempt to shield it from cold and pain, the life was slowly ebbing out of this valiant man, his body carrying artefacts from...

Million Everests
If love is a gamble, I wouldn't shy away to risk shedding yellowing pages of my soul, to grow souvenir sunflowers in your yearning soul. As I can't stop these free falling heartbeats now, and if I am meant to fall, I wouldn't deny any push from million Everests -- everytime, gladly for you. Ayesh...

Give-R Hell
In the year 1995 They strengthen up their frame It must be sturdy it must strong To play her deadly game In the year of 96 Their last year alive In month 5 on day 10 They struggle to survive Two write books Of that fatal Day Writing down memories of fear and dismay Putting to words how mother earth shook And...

Staying On Everest
Atop Ole Everest mountaineers delight Your souls she can take In darkness of night Her vengeance and beauty Are one in the same With wildness in her She’ll never be tame Almost to summit So close to her peak Climbing on north side Your soul she seek Her fury has gripped you You know you may die You try to be fearless But that’s just a...

Mount Everest
Looking at the blue sky From the roots of the mountain, I see the rocky plain and the snows I start climbing it As I give myself courage to my last step I feel the bite of cold rocks and icy But the beauty of the peak takes the last breath away I raise my arms so weary And give the great mountain...

Mt Everest
8/4/22 Too much crap coming with a high tax Intentional not by chance It's always been like that Others talking behind backs Especially after sipping out bottles from wine racks It'll reach an end or climax After a time lapse Meanwhile it was in person or done behind glass Having nothing or everything to do with finance Nearby wildcats or waves with white caps Took care...

Premium Member On Everest
I stand on top of world. I’ve won! I’m a statue frozen solid - On tippy-toes I’ve reached the sun. I took a showering from cloud. I’m bitten up with frosty snow. Too late for me to brag out loud. This sunny sphere won’t help unfreeze. On Everest, I’m cold of brain, Too full of pride, to bend my knees. Could artist rush to...

The King's Dead
-The King's Dead- Suddenly, I see. Chicken pox, is full of bandwagons. Not the biggest reach for a climb to mount Everest. It’s a bold statement with eternal boundaries. Headshot, then I freaked it. Mess my life up fam. Don’t appreciate the sound of silence when the wind pipes down. Working on a clustertruck. Throbs meltin. Throw that pillow down, suffocate mainstream media. Wreak...
