Long Adumbrate Poems

Mine gerund farming, tilling, and harvesting illogical weltanschauung

Twas accursed destiny
since birth (maybe coded in
deoxyribonucleic acid  
since time immemorial) alas and alack
nascent emasculation abominable barrack
emergent deus ex machina,
one common Joe biden his time
for no particular

A wandering soul lost in her own fantasies
Not interested in cruel world of enmity
In search of her own sunshine
Against the unfair realities...

Neither afraid nor pressurised
Belongs to a unique women's tribe
An example of living on her...

Battery (for Hyundai Sonata) Needed Today

Frugality worn by fiat generated
by alternate fickle finger of fate,
the plus side being said vehicle
parked here in public Salem's lot,
where I live with said diabolical mate

at highland manor apartments
penury run...

Get out your sponges, stippling brushes and pens,
It’s time for makeover-Monday-night to begin.
Think Winky Lux, L’Oréal, Urban Decay,
Maybelline, Armani and Fabergé

It’s a black magic realm where brushes are wands,
where a carnival of colors are carefully...

				Lux Nova
			(after Notre Dame)

The light at Suger's
	 St. Denis
precursor for mighty Notre Dame
Paints both floors in color.
Transliterated from the glass of guilds
	Tracery and mullions 
Adumbrate
A story in late winter's light
Perhaps enough, barely enough
	Enough of an...

 The stars of society,
 great notion once did scintillate;
 their glow burned too fast,
 ash, cinder, sloth, agnominate;

The neural spark
is ill-defined, a cloud of unknowing.

Nothing begins anywhere.
The tail of the snake

Thinking of you I’m painting of love
Ascribing endearing brushstrokes
Ambivalent of my reach to inform
As I adumbrate upon soul’s canvas

Come build this portrait with me
Emblazon those empty spaces
Color them boldly as you please
Embolden contours of your...

The effervescent glow my smitten eyes ingratiate
The duplicitous shadow your intentions obfuscate

The sparkling twinkle my collateral dreams exfoliate
The superficial glare my residual doubts accentuate

A momentary blink doth my pensive libido inflate
Subsequent roll of your eyes,...

On the porch, stars circle a shrinking sky.
A great adumbrate crown of clouds,
has left just a small pond of night lights.

"Look, there goes a pig chasing a cow!"
She traces invisible lines with her finger.

I see...
