Long Amounting Poems

They say society's heart
is changed by story
and not by theory.

But what is history
if not also a theory about evidence
for healthy and pathological stories?
Experiences,
narratives,
parables,
analogies,
ecologies,
theologies
with active Yang EgoSubjects
and yin Eco Understories
favoring healthy WinWin ego/ecological theory

Entering the last...

Don’t you ever wonder and wander in your sleep?
I dream of you and I just want to weep like a creep
I’m stumbling in the deep until the hill’s too steep
Can you hear my moans and...

gripping numbness
ripples across my face,
infinite timed tears
burn through my skin, 
glittering a fire
of unrivaled suffering 

grief beyond measure 
rips apart my psyche, 
keening at a moonless sky 
I am bereft of my star,
mourning an existence...

I sit in the chair, nervous and accepting of the fate I have created. I have earned the right to be here, through careful planning and methodical artistry. How is it my fault if they...

Great stature, 
enormous strength; 
huge, colossal
the way my heart exploded 
so many different ways to express it
Does anyone hear the sound a heart 
Makes when it breaks
Even continents away
Did she hear it?
The only one that...

In Heaven at Last

When I wanted to be safe and calm
God had held me in His huge palm,
Always knew I am so safe and sound;
Way I felt when He had been around.

Things I always wanted...

In that meteoric moment
she exhibited eternal qualities of wonderfully wrought womanhood,
calm,disciplined and candid,
adorned with few distinctions from the rest behind her
the loving leadership was projected in painstaking posture,
brutal perfection,a suffering of diligence amounting to total...

There’s emptiness this night;
Good-byes are everywhere.
Life is such a hard thing;
Sometimes it’s too hard for me.
    Those with initials preceding their name;
    They might conclude I suffer.

to friend or not to friend, that is not the question
I'll be damned but I'm game
These facts cannot be left unstated
whether it is right to suffer 
the lingering stings of speculative moments
or just to click...

Poverty seems like a repellent stuck on the poor
Whose only fault lies in owning no property or asset to parade
Among wealth admirers and worshippers to whom poverty seems dour
In contexts where ostentatious display of wealth...

Touch my body

Hear my pain

Kissing my lips

Drives me insane

Feeling the thunders

Of my heartbeats inside

Increasing his rhythm

Ignoring my cries



Black and white

Red and blue

Make me move

Closer to you

Rub my back

Kiss my neck

Remove the fear

When You draw me...

More brawns than brains, the young soldiers charge into battle.
Many of them will die in their struggles with their enemies,
while others will realize the reality of war and never return 
to this hellish domain. ...

We had started preparing dinner,
but when I told her they were grazing out back,
she wanted to go see them for herself.   I folded the dishtowel
and put dinner on hold.

I never intended to incubate what I articulate,
Particularly speaking of spoken words,
For I need vindication of words I abdicate,
After my expressions pull me downwards,

Anytime I declare affinity amounting to you,
I play chess making all the...

This is an obvious thing to say
well of course this is always the case
you are alive till the day you die
so certain for all the human race

Now let us ponder this for awhile
behind these words...

Stayed at Home Instead

For a while in salt water we would splash
After that lay down and start to crash
End up dreaming of the many things
Which to us joy and happiness brings.

Then we later had to...

A dumb officemate landed a promotion but not me,
it's alright, it was not based on good looks anyway.

I am grossly underpaid but come to think of it it's okay,
I cannot be relying on this damn...

It came to me
upon reflection
Life is one
great big collection

Starting with a
teddy bear
and ending with
a gasp of air

The time between
those points is rough
accumulating
all this stuff

Books and knick knacks
line the shelves
and in it all
we lose ourselves

Hand-me-downs
and souvenirs
hoarded...

 "You stir the peak of my night holding my vision in sight. The blue of your eye roams in my midnight sky"   
  
She entered and grabbed my soul

Step inside

See for yourself

I've nothing here to hide

Or worthy of you stealing

My clothes are old and full of 
holes so to are my socks and undies

My bread is moulded milk soured
i've only rat's for company...

Situated in an embroided spacious field.
Attracting fortunes,wealth and by honey filled.
Land moistured in peace and grace forlorn.
End of strife,struggle,sickness; Goodness un-turn.
Made for all that are drilled.

Second coming; Graced with heightened failure.
Amounting pleasant pressures and did...

At day's end a retreating sun banished
Awestruck we witness its closing farewell
Silently the last veil of hue vanished
Our woes amounting to mere bagatelle

Nightfall air transfixed as if by a spell
Overcome with a wave of emotion

More Than Sufficed
 
If  you commit sins and can't pay the cost
Your whole life will end up being lost
And when sins have more than sufficed,
Certainly should give them all to Christ.

Even though sins are...

In the vastness of space,
Emptiness is vague,
Where miracles take place,
A disposition to create,

It starts with a molecule,
Then a few into clumps,
Growing in momentum,
To an uncountable sum,

Amounting, inviting gravity,
Merging more closely together,
The unyielding embrace of alchemy,
Yielding...

I would say for one,
you’ve been a lot of fun.
With the verbal eccentricities
showing in poetic entries.
that appear as lingual anomalies
to the insolent majorities.
With what you have shown,
you have a style all your own.
I think your...
