Though it’s still partly cloudy in this street
& everybody follows the king’s fleet,
I’m following you to the ends of this world,
where I’ve replaced everything with your word,
I remain elsewhere like the empty plea
because you’re that fire burning inside me.
Though those agencies that create duets seem
to believe that a system employing well over
2, 000, 000 couples with infusions of bright visions
will need certain clearly specified characteristics
with objectives & noting costs to protect the new moon.
You’re that whirlwind blowing everything away,
that’s why in this play, I pray not to be the next prey.
I’m too late this morning & I won’t catch any bus,
though traders in their market won’t understand us.
To them, we’re actors in a tragic-comedy stage.
& we made a bold decision to try out the phage.
Give me your hands for a warmth of touch
& I won’t be in operational form in that skutch.
Give me your mouth for a kiss
when I listen to your coos.
Give me your whole body for burying me completely
when I pledge fealty.

We gone have
Lionfish, Catfish Red Snapper
pork ribs beef brisket and roasted goat
ya'll gonna eat
ya'll gone dance
ya'll gonna sip wine
and enjoy!
Zucchinni sausage and chese some braod noodles
Bright fingers of crimson and gold, reaching skyward,
The flames flicker and dance as they illuminate the dark.
As we toss on another twig and some old plywood.
Now and then embers would escape with a loud spark.
Amidst the smoky scent of our cozy campfire.
Mouthwatering infusions seem to be airborne.
Familiar sensations waft into an aromatic spire.
Can it be hot buttered toast, or is that popcorn?
The fragrances so inviting, mixed with earthy sprays.
As the breeze diminishes so our campfire's warmth we feel.
The eucalyptus enhances a perfume, in a smoky haze.
The overwhelming aroma of our campfire is quite surreal.
The spellbinding flames flicker, casting shadows of their own.
Its all made more spectacular by our campfire’s cologne.
There is s new online bill, i heard and it gave
Me a chill, to know there must be such a killer
King; thing ' to help no doubt; on misinformation
To route' like the 'so called gender confusion' is
That based on illusion? M n r a gene infusions
Puberty drugs that cancel, usual life growth now
Given rampant dissolution to the cohesion of
The youth..Just where is the truth?? I guess there
We be guidance on good moral fibre, when its
Signed off? this decider, or is it a guider?? So much
We all all need such' lets thank the govenrment to
Apprehend in its, (out-clutch?) to grab and redress'
The last decades miss-approprieated mess.!
Raspberry bonbon confectionery,
Lavender fields, spicy infusions
Neon lights, trailing ivy shimmer,
Eerie azure moon, stately silhouettes
Katoomba's eucalyptus gardens
Aqua paint swirls, funky abstract art
Freshly cut roses, Prussian royal
Spider veins, mimic skeleton leaves
Maldives sandstorm, sapphire jewels
Inherited, European eyes
Topaz rich, diamante gem skies
Working man's blues, American roots
Cerulean butterfly, flutters
Reticent, admirably, beneath
The ozone layers,
Vast deep blue hole
A DEATH IN PANDEMIC
I’m dead
I’m gone
Sometime ago,
I’m lifeless now, unbreathing
Like a waste
In a black plastic jacket
They tried hard
They did everything what they could
Gave me pills injected infusions
Hooked me in ventilation
But I couldn’t make through
They did to the furthest
But no, I failed to conquer
Now I became a number
Of a long digit figure.
I saw the infected around me
I saw the doctors and nurses up and down
The whiteness of the hospital I saw
The masked terror walked unbridled I saw
Now I became a number
Of a long digit figure.
I’ll be unexposed
I’ll be buried
I’ll be cremated either
I’ll be destroyed with my viral enemy
For the sake of others
Now I became a member
Of a long digit figure.
God the news, this horrible ongoing news all the lies
The optics insane, people dying by the hundreds
A fake leader lying who does not read the news
As the virus surges, children lost and the earth dies
I have to bless dogs, so loving so attentive and true
Our devoted friends though they are so often abused
Treated like a dog, a dog of a movie. worked like a dog…
Dogs such gentle protective creatures that see you thru
They protect our police, and soldiers and the blind
Giving warmth and joy to sick children in hospital beds
Safety and companionship to those who are alone
Silly and fun, watchful and warriors, gentle and kind
I feel sad becaause of their warmth and joy so genuine so true
By me during the nights when I went through medical infusions
I wish I could bring another pup in from the cold
But this must be enough for I already have two rescues
The vigilance that a dog brings as a companion and friend
Whether you are homeless in a tent, an RV or a home
Give them a forever place for they will be loving and faithful
A sweet creature your helpmate caring and loving until the end
cracked but not entirely broken
the metaphor slowly personified
candle wax dripped from the wick
musk varnished tentative seepage
in tea leaves she trusted for courage
porcelain sheltered hope and destiny
well versed in disaster and belief
she held a cupful of promises
trials tribulations infusions
life had been a precarious pendulum
thresholds turning points stagnation
when the fulcrum captured returns
a procession of mindful surrender
shared patina of defeat and resolve
three Tarot cards embraced her fate
the Hangman depicted her past
turned into a Hermit of shadows
predicted the future in Judgement
faith in the oracle sustained her soul
her weary bones creaked and rattled to
sounds of wisdom and imminent doubts
cracks are where the light gets in
and focus grows under pressure
when kindness appears on the scene

MAINTAIN YOUR FOCUS
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS
Don’t lower the bar, lose not sight of the goal
Avoid the distractions, that constantly unfold
Zero in on the prize with relentless pursuit
An untended tree will be barren of fruit
Fuel your quest with positive assertions
Mine your resources for creative infusions
Your goal emerges, in sight, continue apace
Successful missions lead to a higher chase
He thought on all the attributes of Spring
The landscapes deliquescing, day-by-day
On white and gray and drab, so giving way
To all the hue-infusions life could bring
New creatures of all size, some on-the-wing
A bud and blossom dance of shadow-play
The grand and graceful grass and leaf ballet
A breath, alive with things that buzz and sing.
Yet now those wondrous joys of life's debut
Were things that only photos would recall
For Man had turned the living earth into
A dead and frozen planet, thru-and-thru.
Yet there above, the Sea of Suns did call -
A hope for Man's next Spring was there ... he knew.

The demise of tears and fears fraternizes no frown
From my heart honed to handle an emphatic event
That stresses the face and pace of concerns in my town.
Tame any dame who claims to blame Bloom Brown
For infusions and profusions that signal an ingenious intent
Cos the demise of tears and fears fraternizes no frown.
Why cry over spilt milk when services of a clown
At little cost tames tiffs and whiffs in an incident
That dresses the face and pace of concerns in my town.
Conciliation and reconciliation compact the crown
Primed to decline and redefine a malcontent
Cos the demise of tears and fears fraternizes no frown.
Differences coupled with indifference can’t drown
Enthusiasm towards closing ranks to set a precedent
That stresses the face and pace of concerns in my town.
In the end, I conclude it doesn’t pay to wear a gloom gown
Stitched and bleached to imprint on my heart a devil dent
Cos the demise of tears and fears fraternizes no frown
That stresses the face and pace of concerns in my town.
When warmth of springtime slackens winter's glare
and earth from bitter bonds is free to breathe
infusions of fresh colors boldly weave
through nature's living canvas, wild affair.
As instinct wakes the hibernating bear
while like a compass, birds fly south to leave
a native chorus rises to receive
a primal song of life known everywhere.
With bold awakening from winter's cave
transformed from frozen chrysalis of cold
a young cub ventures forth with virgin steps.
Against a crusty shell, a young beak breaks
escapes his fortress, pushing out so bold
now free, finds comfort in his mother's breast.

Dodecahedron dominions of divinity soul sparks scattered throughout the infinity
Masters of creation and creativity travelers of space-time constructing continuity
Effulgent within ethereal beaming of brilliancy seraphic sculptures of symmetry
Invaders of the soul in infancy as they expand the human condition ambitiously
Manifestations of the melding mind instinctive infusions of morality in mankind
They are the nuclei that lead the blind idiosyncratic intuitions that are undefined
Eternal consciousness a benevolent bliss integral illuminations when we reminisce
Echoes of forever in the ambient abyss the enraptured etchings when lovers kiss
Dimensional deities in our existence descended on the world for our assistance
Transcendental travelers of great distance lighting the path of least resistance
Spatiotemporal spiritual sparks of rebirth encapsulating our wisdom and worth
Know to us as Meraki on planet earth our majestic mediums minstrels of mirth.

Beyond imagination,

A Marilyn Monroe
Among flowers,
Blonde sensual appeal,
Love’s sweet nature
Aroma for life,
Essential oils,
Born to spread fragrance,
Symbol of beauty
Whispering infusions,
A passionate breeze,
Enchanting perfume,
Bringing happiness,
Drifting into the night,
The most seductive scent,
Of her time,
Inspiring the public eye.

dissipating traveling moments
endless strings of sensations
bonding with infectious strains
perilous hopeful infusions of helpless confusion
i sit here
i do not sit here
waiting alongside me
stories of me mixed with you
fear stomping the air from my thoughts
i pray for closure
*not the kind you had in mind
you will destroy me
filling me from the inside out
with delicious tasting dreams
like sugar-coated moonbeams
choking and suffocating on ecstasy
will we end where we started
distancing ourselves from ourselves
playing chess with delirious skin manipulations
running so far away from each other
we meet again on our decent to hell
my fear boils
an enthalpy of vaporization
[(symbol ?Hvap) if you must know]
ending written from the beginning
bringing me home
