World War Three
So they came to a point when it looks inevitable
Like that happened with numbers one and two
And like ages ago, it seems inexplicable
Wars grow like a garden of stones can grew
Stigmatized, victimized for some abstract aim
That shall be proclaimed as our sacred duty
After halcyon days we have lost the game
War returns refreshed, the peace

The inexplicable why
I watched a lorry
coming down the Route de Lesterps.
One of those rumbling lumbering lorries
that so disturbed your morning sleep
and for an instant, a moment’s thought,
I wanted
to dash out between our cars
to run into its onrushing path
to come to you
to leave behind the pain
the need to know
to know not the how
but the inexplicable why.
In

INEXPLICABLE
Brain
Thinking
New ideas
Cogitating
Try to discover
If emotions are real
Where do they originate
It’s a rush of blood to the head
Caused by something that few understand
It starts with each pulsing beat of the heart
All the senses can play their part
Tightly tuned for translation
It’s all about feelings
Of every colour
Like fire or ice
Hot or cold
Passion
Rules

Inexplicable
I swear, I don't know,
Nor do I care what this is,
But I like it,
And feel it,
Body and soul;
Though hard to define,
Boy, it feels divine!
Could it be
The gentle squeeze
Of your hand?
The way you run it
Through my skin?
The enveloping warmth
Of your smile? Or is it
The twinkling stars
In your ebony eyes?
Whatever it

Inexplicable
she’ll talk about
her wedding
her honeymoon
her trip
her house
her bedroom
her livingroom
her yard
her garage
her car

her husband’s sitting there
apparently none of all that is theirs
he sits there outwardly immune
to her inexplicable bouts of poor english
to me it’s unthinkable quite inconceivable
yet she does have her redeeming qualities
because her heart’s so big it could explode
which makes it all the

Tis a Mystery, the Inexplicable Recall
Of Real Or "FAKE" Memories
Earlier today...upon
setting feet out a side door,
a refreshingly cool rain
washed away present woes,
and ushered auld lang syne,
sans mine earlier childhood quatrain
such as the incy wincy spider sung

Predictable Yet Inexplicable
Predictable Yet Inexplicable
Policies and prepared plans are predictable;
Still may and can hire those not capable;
Short cuts taking;
Hearts breaking,
And final reults were firmly inexplicable.

Inexplicable Memory Quirkily Unhinged
A rhetorical question finds me asking
(to no one in particular) why I recall
the names of grade school teachers
approximately fifty years ago (whose
names listed below), when the need
to retrieve necessary information due
ring examinations (less time ago)
often found me seized with sudden
inability to remember any vital ants

Words That Fit the Inexplicable
My brother is an osprey
with an eagle arrogance
And - although he adores a forest
I have the ‘sauce’ on him - he
abhors pine bathroom spray
His eyes are fire opals of mirth
His laughter - the dusk of an
endless Summer heat
His legs - straddle the valley of death
I picture him in a strong canoe paddling through
a river

INEXPLICABLE
Wondering through the scenes of earth
Only sexagenarians will tell there is nothing to fetch
Rummage on, then and now
Astonished we are so we take a bow
So many questions with answers ungiven
Yet deliver testimonies to look uncraven
Why stay young when time is old
Our unique success is that of being bold
And to those that claim of knowledge

Inexplicable Love
My song is sad and badly sung
It catches in my throat and dies
No matter what the day decries
The bells of truth are sadly rung
To cry for a heart that doesn't care
Futile is the life that lives in vain
Crying with such delicious pain
Lest you keep love alive, beware
Tomorrow dawns as I know it will
Still ,
