Inclined Poems

Reaching Out

Tossing electronically-bottled messages
into the wild blue sea yonder
will they float like a boat or sink like a stone
it only makes me ponder
as optimistically-inclined
I often wonder why
some say, 'Send me an email,'
but then never reply
do my bottles circumnavigate the globe
or stay in the Sargasso for ever and a day
are they wrecked on the rocks of spam
while

Inclined

Inclined

The movement of madness,

The selfishness of desire,

Who is higher ? Who is fire ?

Broken ascents,

Non-existent dividends,

Where is laughter ? Where is water ?

Deformed misinformation,

Dematerialized ambition,

What is sin ? What is wind ?

Transcendental realignment,

An ages long assignment,

Which is worth ? Which is earth ?

Premium MemberIf You Were So Inclined

come to me in the night
tread lightly my dreams
stay as long as you like
roam you are free

my light is always on
and the door open
come to me in the night
stay as long as you like

Premium MemberGraciousness Inclined

 
I was not born a girl pleasant and kind,
though, I was taught to be polite;
but over the years manners and grace twined.
I was not born a girl pleasant and kind,
but these days I am graciousness inclined;
oh yes-   I have now found insight.
I was not born a girl pleasant and kind,
though, I was

Premium MemberMusically Inclined To Listen Intently

Musically inclined to listen intently
from this title, music is high in my list
always have enjoyed in all my years
so thrilling to me like when kissed

Someone said there's only two kinds
meaning good and bad and that's all
trust my taste has been on the good
the joy of music lifts your heart so tall

In my present times being

It - a Love Poem For the Romantically Un-Inclined

There was never any controlling it?
No dodging it. Unloading it?
It stuck us both together and held us tightly in its grip

Musically Inclined

She walked into the room capriccio, with her hair bouncing and flowing rhythmically. The room is now, acceso with excitement. She walks A cappella,  
yet some kind of charismatic tune, began playing in my mind, as her classical shape gracefully glides, con affetto past my table. My heart skips a beat then presto, dolcissimo

Musically Inclined

Her fingers strum
lullabies on my
dopamine lines
from one artery
to the next
She's connected
to every heartbeat
in every breath
like a ***** spiritual
to Still I Rise
Her touch exposes
 surprising endings
and unbelievable
encores followed by
Reach for More's
and dig deepers
So deep
 I have to rinse soil from my soul
Having to apologize
 afterwards
because we went from hello
to one hundred miles into go
 Fingerprints
left on

Holiday Fun Re-Write For the Equine Inclined 2

Frosty the Roan Man  
   
Frosty the Roan Man was a jolly, happy soul
with a big wide blaze and a frosted butt
and two eyes made out of Love 

Frosty the Roan Man is a fairy tale they say
but the children cluck he could rear and buck
when he came to life one day

There

Poetically Inclined Delusions

She's the closer in her
   own intangible talent,
came upon an absurd
   assumption she
might be a poet, merely
 discernible as conveyed
  ill-drifting  imagination 
betwixt dispersed antagonism
    and magniloquent coercion,
her mediocre existence aced cliché 
 vanquished 'neath forewarning 
   zephyrs amidst wildflowers on fire

Not Socially Inclined

Not socially inclined 

We drove to Cascais for two days holiday at 
a posh hotel and I promptly fell ill a sort of fever
I do not travel well.

My wife and her extended family had a swell 
time, while I shivered under three blankets and
claimed the air condition was sat to freezing.

On the third day I

Free Cee Designed While Inclined

DESIGNED WHILE RECLINED

Would you like to stay up late watching T.V. with me?
Perhaps we two could share a shard of star shine
Would you like to sit on a sumptuous sofa while we soothingly recline?
On a date declared by a daisy and two daffodils design
Would you like to reflect back to when disco lights lit a

So Inclined

Anything at all indeed
all but those illustrous clippings
fair and weathered still
tempered wrought to weaken steel
playing carelessly like unto posies
wandering all night in days end pansies
collective thought of mind body and soul
watered down in the golden bowl
laughlingly with jowls so large
flexing thighs pimpled so
large n lovely and lovely so
an quaint as a cute bow
flattery thick n
