Premium MemberHostile Architecture and Its Narcissistic Gatekeeper

it was unnecessary and unkind.
all you did was cut me off
from conversing with the very community
of which you speak, of which I am a part.

if you want the whole place to yourself,
you’ll have to use your words—
I don’t do any better with hints than you.

that’s why I left, your inability to read
the room or allow

Hakim The Gatekeeper from Esagila

Hakim. The Gatekeeper from Esagila.

(A lone voice whispers)

In ancient Babylon, 

I once stood alone and mixed fire
Iron and clay 

All day 

Creating a spell
To entice my only light to come my way 

Sent merchandise of gold and silver

To her,
The Pythoness of Endor 
Hidden in dark woods

Over the deepest of rivers 

Bundles of finest fresh linens

Premium MemberGatekeeper of Space Time

As the gatekeeper of both time and space,
surfing the bardo that lies in between
aether and form, wherefrom radiates grace,
existence reveals its throbbing bliss sheen.
Singular Self has an urge to create
a domain where ascent follows descent,
that by piercing the veil, soul shapes its fate,
requiring simply, to grant love consent.
This choiceless choice to ingrain deep learning,
that emerging

Premium MemberGatekeeper

She holds a set of dangling golden keys,
In front of a massive silvery gate.
Knowing the prize I ask to enter please,
But she shakes her head which denotes my fate.

I take out magical potion to trade,
But no interest as she agitates.
I have no army to perform a raid,
So I am thinking I will come back late.

"I

              A world beyond,
         imagination is possible;
      using transcendental thinking prolonged,
        with deep meditation-   not impossible.
  Close your eyes-

Premium MemberSteam Punked Chest Plated Falcon Loving Gatekeeper

Delivered from the bowels of the ancient tombs of Pharaohs forgotten
The steampunked chest plated falcon loving gatekeeper approached
We were fearful of his neon green glance and psychedelic war paint.
He was not your typical partygoer. It did not take a genius to see this.

Dragon like feelers in a moon pattern were part of his body’s armor.
Intimidated,

Gatekeeper



The gatekeeper whose
golden house’s roof reflects 
off the sun at noon
A torch or a lighthouse for 
The fearless midnight watchman

A faraway coast
The coldest of wars
A frontline post
Flying machines with whirly blades
and painted on red stars
search in vain for a ghost
Tension was high
In the waters off Kamchatka Krai

My Gatekeeper

Every voice needs an ear
  for it to be free

Every writer, a reader,
  or the words cease to be

In my case I’ve been lucky
  though she came to me late

For my dearest sweet Laura
  —the key to my gate

a roar a purr
i am the gatekeeper
of my heart
of what goes in 
and what comes out
a big overgrown lion
i roar mostly i purr

Gatekeeper of My Heart

You hold the flame that tamed my heart
That came to me in the light of the dark
On fire from the very start
Life itself could not pry our love apart
Meeting in the middle like a dancing fiddle
That sings out like a weeping willow

That reflects from the glisten 
Out of the corner of your eyes
Have I ever

The Gatekeeper

On Boondoggle street
thrives a magic store
anyone who enters disappears
except the old dear
who minds the counter
who never enters or leaves
whose eyes are sharp as twin tacks.
