love humours dissent according assent ~
yet soul ascends on granting love consent
Enchantment
Love is not the opposite of hate
that fiery passion
which turns against our heart
like a python through the blood
constricting life
love is what we yearn for
to create delicious selves
the flavouring in our lives
it is a thief that creeps upon us
or steals us from the start
of all the humours
love believes itself supreme
the drug we cannot do without
we are joyful in its midst
or a victim of its curse.
Humours turn acrid near
The silent seer.
Escaping absentees scamper
Further down the hole that holds their likeness
Extinguish | fatal obscurant | visions.
| fata obscura |
Of thriving, lively fauna
Prostrate to impelling images
Schizoid prognostic narratives
Told through the burning lens.
Up above somewhere;
Unmade's secret eddies meet the Void's effacing means
Flickery shades mar anthropic soil
Never-beens, vestiges, cloud-faced mutes
Watch, sneer, hiss from interstitial galas
Covet your unearned gift of certain being
All skies slide to promenade our spaces
In front of that greatest-deep mirror
Most cower at the approach.
Croatoan, Boskopoid, Nephilim ires boil, rise
Evaporate.
Thin air marks their omphalos.
Sinews worn down and slumped in buried peat
Undisturbed lighthouses scry
Souls echo Xibalba's memory
Nulled sheets linger over its impossibility.
No divine clap can hide the noise of nothing.
No resplendent scheme can stop time's voyage surely ebbing.
Never will you win in wagers against the real.

FUNNY CANNY PUNNY
The great guy Punny
makes fun, yet funny.
Witty and canny.
Spontaneous laugh
much more than enough,
serious on bluff.
Jokes not to explain
Pun doesn’t go in vain,
but to entertain.
Humours to be spun,
not grave ! Cheerful pun.
Real joyous fun.
Sure to feel sick,
true meaning to seek !
Punny the guy descent
Actually absent
on own wedding date.
To bride, he didn’t pay debt.

A WASTED LIFE
Does man, fear the pain
From all the scars of war
Feel as better, or as gain
From knowing the score
Was it all worth it, dying
All this blooded rank soil
In the distance as crying
Wasted effort, man's toil
All sacrificed for demons
Who thrill upon your die
Without want, or reason
Humours your death cry
Have we learnt anything
Or; as justify the means
Wrong ideology teaching
As truth remains unseen
You are taking up space
You are costing to much
There is no saving grace
To those who lose touch
No one heeds the lesson
Why now we have to die
As blinded by false hope
When in prayers you cry
We are now the sacrifice
Before the greater world
We are no longer suffice
As to God's ear, unheard

MY DREAM CATCHER, FUND
Fleeting this world of empty form,
Urge cheer to be what humours glimpse;
Note change that swirls each dying norm,
Dance as you see dream within dream.

Craft your own play
In what heart says
Love is the way
To live each day
Now come what may
Seize joy that stays
Faith walks the way
As hope funds play
Wit humours clay
In this brief sway
Seek succinct say
To paint each day
Learn how to pray
Just as you play
Words in fine say
Sparks joy each day
Work the best stay
As fun now stays
Glimpses stake sway
As good cheer says
Love wants to play
Just as you pray
Learn to obey
Truth that frames way

On a surreal dream
Watch the colours stream
Strange sights come to light
As fancy takes flight
Strands of light go round
Curling sparkles ground
Reason feels lost wit
No logic can fit
Rhymes upon odd mimes
Awkward as cracked time
Round and up and down
Facets of mad clown
Frown and smiles distract
Surreal feels abstract
No mindful tact here
Bleeding yet unclear
Cheer is such a fad
Madness swirling mad
In this surreal world
Feel the spiral swirl
Crash upon strange fest
Fate humours mad jest
Frozen laughter cheers
The scourge of mad tears
Lost in limbo land
Fallen angel bland

Sexy knows what sexy is:
Beauty with a touch of bliss.
Sexy humours charm and grace:
Touching face in sacred space.
Sexy shows what sexy knows:
Sure impulse as glimpses grow.
Sexy hints and mints fond quest:
Quick wit and fit fondles fest.
Sexy shows what sexy blooms:
Deep touching visual high booms.
Sexy trades in pleasure grand:
Ample rapture hurls my friend.

Love lives in your soul
For you to be whole
Love waits at the gate
For you to meet fate
Love calls time and space
For you to know grace
Love heals you each time
For you to sync chimes
Love prompts you to be
For you to now see
Love humours your face
For you to seize grace
Love guides you to play
For you to find the way

Zest mellows fest
In curl of jest
Wit shapes fine bits
In lines that fit
Show knows deep flow
In ample glow
Sight moves with light
In happy flight
Seize each new piece
In savvy ease
Chimes sparkle time
In oozing rhymes
Fest humours best
In flash of jest

From deep within beyond all noise,
Known yet unseen my soul knows poise.
A certain thrill prompts my own voice,
Sense fond goodwill move heart's fine choice.
I go my way and do my thing,
Breeze through the day with dream that flings.
Each moment now weaves ample range,
Cheer does endow themes light yet strange.
I cease to write to just expound,
Thoughts come to cite how love gains ground.
I sit and wait upon the wind,
Joy frames grand fate here in-between.
Feelings rush out with easy strain,
I need not shout yet truth casts plain.
Love primes my ease with profound grace,
I live sure peace as light greets space.
Wit humours tease with worthwhile style,
Verse lines now lease such fragrant smiles.
I look to joy to humour fest,
Play fondles ploy with brilliant zest.

Thank you my dear
For grace that cheers
In a fond glimpse
Fond feelings stream
Such sparkling eyes
Highs merge with sighs
Dream upon dream
Love ever streams
We journey far
Dance here on par
Joy frames delight
Time brings insight
Love wears a face
Charm in embrace
So many years
Have flown my dear
We walk this maze
Fit wit to daze
Each day brings finds
Warm peace of mind
Here faith and hope
Sync with love's scope
All in due time
Love mellows rhyme
This lifetime trip
Primes zesty grip
My dear darling
Love plucks pulse strings
Wit humours zest
Prize path and quest

Wit humours will with hearty feel,
Etch in swift flow a dance that grows;
Apt words now thrill a touch that heals,
Voice in clear show can yield fond glow;
Echo warm deed to hoist sure need.
Work in sure spring can niche fine boom,
Opt to plant seed to bless and feed;
Ripe harvest brings autumn's rich blooms,
Dance in the light as health now spins.
Wonder knows well to wander here,
Ask cheery sights to help you win;
Vision does spell love's happy cheer,
Emerge with joy as dream come true,
See play seize ploy as beauty cues.
