Intoxicated Poems

Intoxicated with eyes

When I am intoxicated, I rise beyond myself, like fragrance escaping from a blooming flower.
My heart, burdened by sorrow, lifts itself high, like a flower breaking free from the confines of a grave.
I leave behind my heavy, lifeless body,
And soar on the wings of boundless imagination. I traverse the skies, reaching the seventh heaven,
Seeking fountains

Window to the Soul
The eyes of lovers are open doors, unlocked by true love and intimacy.
 Each of us holds ourselves captive in that inner panic room, that shelter we begin building upon our first disappointment and heartbreak. 
 Every hurt and betrayal adds a brick or stone…a log or nail to that tranquil room

Intoxicated

11/20/22

Here is an honest statement
I'm extremely intoxicated
These haters still constipated
Snakes continue being nominated
Dark forces thirst for power in a world full of a lot of hatred
Or folks that are calm and patient
Much being complicated
Good intentions punished and corruption tolerated

Still nothing helps
Onto something else
Put my heart into it yet still wasn't felt

Sipping a glass of Cognac
Yet

A Responsible Beginning

This is the night to bring in a new year 
You might want to celebrate with some beer
That is quite all right
As long as you have someone sober drive tonight 
Drinking and driving is not cool
At best, you would drive like a fool
Don’t be one of those that drink and drive 
The two just don’t

Intoxicated Rondeau

Totally intoxicated in prime movers’ immortality
Never hidden in punchy illusion
Broken heart dips into sacred circus hilarious absurdity
Images of staggering lightheadedness - cleared vision fusion.

Stronghold built on the perfect harmony suffusion 
Of love’s author – dizzy with tipsy truth’s reality -
Distilled Spirit's healing balm - giddy epiphanies in profusion -
Totally intoxicated in prime movers’ immortality.

Wanted: Dead Or Alive

Going once,
	Going twice.
sold to the desolate soul in the far-left corner
the one half-dead with tear-soaked cheeks
intoxicated memories
choking down something
from her parent's liquor cabinet
at fifteen
searching for an answer
carved in the stars
a constellation pointing anywhere but 
here is the answer: to stay or to go?
Go far away-- run away, girl
toss regret as a rock into the ocean
it

Intoxicated

I have fondled and drowned in a toxic contortion,
I know not whether to drink it or spill it,
I know not, whether to swallow it or to spit it,
I know, it is a venomous adoration,
Yet, I like it.

intoxicated by entwined souls,
breasts beating, breathing
in the amalgamation of us.
trust in lips, tongues, stress
of otherworldly communication.

neo-occasion of bare skin,
slightly shy, surrendering
to the shift and slide—
sensuality played portentously…
innocence irrigated…
blind.

intoxicated by the itch;
you scratch
my back like a kitten.
my feet and knees
find your warm precipices
of carnal knowledge.
together we learn
there’s an inner universe;
exploration
of mysterious habitation.

in practice, in habit
tingling of

Your witty charm had me 
hook line and sinker.
I was under your spell; I 
can't get enough of you.
I love your mesmerizing 
eyes.
Your captivating smile,
Your smile is so radiant
Your body is like a sculpture 
of a Greek God.
I think you're related to 
Adonis. 
I enjoy having my fill of you.
Everything about you is so 
intoxicating.

Staggering, wobbling, stumbling...somewhere 
Watching the world spinning, and spinning, and spinning 
Confused and discombobulated, he wandered...somewhere 
Swerving his steps and slurring his words... 
Still carrying the Boone's Farm- strawberry flavored 
He mumbled to himself...
Where am I? ...somewhere 
Walking with no direction, he sloppily sings
 
"Somewhere over the rainbow... 
Bluebirds fly 
Somewhere over the rainbow...
Where, oh

Airbrushed perfection
Ghostly Druid casts his spell
Protected by Tree of life.

Intoxicated Adam

My fill I drink
And simple instructions no longer sink
Nor straight succeed to think.

I sense mocking winks
But judge them innocent blinks,
My fifty - year - old face,
Mirroring a discarded doll's;
My ever staggering pace
Molesting sober walls.

A sudden exploding interest in love - making,
The woman I have touched hatefully quaking.

On some table, a dumped, careless meal,
To the steward,

Intoxicated
They intoxicate my world
And expect me to be royal
This is the picture of life 
Were my soul bleeds 
Still the world don't care 
Even doe I worry about 
The future of man with it nature 
Still I bleed to see 
That all given for the sake
Of love 
Is destroyed to vanity 
No wonder they intoxicate

I'M Intoxicated In Love

several moments
with curse,
with hateful things,
with banned activities
were my affinity,

in these,
I was entangled,
walked dancing
with lofty lickerish
by loving your ensnaring beauty,

every atom of your beauty
crushed me, trampled my lusty ego

o graceful black girl
you, the superb creation of God,
I'm passionate as well as committed too
to your unseen love

It's your (ensnaring)love
where I cannot judge
the true or false, the beauty
