Long Annulled Poems

mysteries and memories to unlock.
 
My Dad had lived a mostly happy life,
and I remember him...

I saw a man in the mirror yesterday
I saw him there again today
Behind him I saw streets and houses and people everywhere
And my mind wondered and pondered and wondered what this man’s life was like...

I watched a prompting feature by a dynamic actor,
his life seemed vivacious with an ardent factor;
today I heard he'd hanged himself to an annulled death,
deserted fears overpowered zeal in his last breath.

I read an...

Woman of the Desert
Lexis of the wise squeezes into the zephyr just to be heard by those in the wildness
But rather it seems the woman of the land-her ears have been blocked by the acrimonious...

I was a soul born in chaos
my beginnings and consciousness infinitesimal
I have been blasted by forces
outside of my own natures call
and yet I can see the raw beginning
of a mind fluid
with the elements of the...

In a Romania of shadows, where the dream crumbled under the weight of history,
Under the leaden sky, our hopes broke and departed in silence,
A nation mourns its soul with tears hidden deep within its being,
Searching...

This morass of a quagmire beleagured unfaithful
bestowment of gifts so easily annulled,
confined spaces of opinionated biased
blown out of proportion like bubbles of miasma...

Wedge issues continue to split like firewood
high temperature attitudes inducing the mood,
court jesters...

My uncle is dead.
Funeral or no funeral?
He was a blue baby; born dead.
Oxygen did not get to his brain in time.
The doctor worked on him too long.
He had multiple mental, social and emotional challenges. 
He...

O-n this day in history, electorate gave the
    mandate.
L-ords of that time annulled an election,
    an unfair decision to the citizenry, a
    decision without a reason.

Buttercup as an anemone, I see my bonbon 
In the midst of a wharve spin,
Graciously thin languette,
Ecclesiastic, a true coquette,   
Offered for a handful of sequin
On the 1000-thread linen, rests Evangeline!

Shine the uptown...

Zenith of perfection is the aim of my existence.
My pilgrimage towards this, I know, is my persistence.
I align my senses like a predator towards prey.
My physique and psyche are synthesised in every way.
The social fibre...

Your wife isn't carrying your baby, she's carrying mine.
She wanted me to marry her but I had to decline.
She didn't want tongues to wag about her being an unwed mother.
She was afraid of people's reactions,...

Another poem that I wrote alone,
Another one that blossomed from woe.
Will this be the last poem I'll writ?
The gift from the Goddess thrown in a pit?
Have I deicided the Moon's tallow dreams;
A divulged matricide to...

Titbit scars to feed emotions crimson;
In Her gloomy heart by her wet season.
As Her solstice endorses a greasing red,
She revels off a goad instead...

To each bliss cusp she gladly deflowers,
I cavort rue to each rose's...

Strolling up the chapel isle, each one looking like a jewel
Everyone saying of the bride, ‘Ooooh she looks so beautiful’
Stopping before the preacher, he leads them through the vows
Not noticing the bride having a funny...

Do you find it with greatness? 
Do you find it with peace?
Do you find it with proportion? 
Do you find it with the least?
Do you find it with wanting?

Those winter blahs, they're with us again

They can drag us down without doubt

It makes us feel like cursing bloody murder

Can't take it, I just want to shout

After all these years I still can't stand winter

True to my nature to entertain
Annulled in my character to refrain
Treasured,  a toss up to comprehend
Yesterday's version of me, my friend
Another day, maybe, the sky will clear
Never reminded I'm almost near
And so in the...

Music dissolved all enmity, 
Annulled natural chemistry, 
All regardless of consortia,
Came to hear the jungle orchestra. 

Maestro King Lion got all in tune,
Baboon was superb on the bassoon,
Four parrots made a splendid quartet,
Chimpanzee dazzling on...
