Availing Sky

Barren, sterile sky bleat and sigh
Open your canopy, enlighten our eye
Expose the boundless mysteries that in your realms lie
Reveal your majestic, azure panels on high
Bleed your sappy, snowy cisterns dry
Unmask spirits that in your porous rotunda fly
From your lofty lattitudes carefully apply
Brightly-hued colors that will broadly imply
Beauty and luster to those who your pleated seams ply
Your grand mosaic with hope and promise tie
Bond light and love to uplift hearts that on your fealty rely
Bountiful, beaconing sky so fertile so spry
Shelter our dreams and drown our cry
With our aspiring visions gratuitously ally

Cowl Lix Aged Language Lover

please lemme know and honestly profess
if profusion of words create a lingual Loch Ness
(when hens canst come home to roost
   especially, encountering 
   the following conglomeration
   in matthew scott harris patois).

He readily admits writing inventive
   attempts usually ten tubby a literary mess,
thus finding innocent cyber cruisers
   Angle fishing for Saxony fundamental fluidity
   courtesy of Freudian stream of consciousness,
   gabbling gibberish, muck not done on purpose
   and certainly less
to impress.

Gnome hatter intent toward 
   cogency, fancy ingenuity,
   levity, the inevitable 
   resultant wrought gobbledygook
   fascination for Lingua Franca
   feeble endeavor splutters, splinters,
   and splatters Asia Yukon guess.

Paramour status analogous with twenty six letters,
   sans En gull Lush Mother tongue confluence
   finds me submerged (as an Arctic Monkey)
   swimmingly enervated 
   via erotic laced sentiments
   perhaps finds bravely daring soul madly
   hollering, gesticulating floundering,
   (in close proximity to Davey Jones's locker)
   to avoid drowning at sea
   perchance comprehending passionate influence.

   Upon espying a signature poem of mine
   forces one pre ponder ring lurking predilection
   tib hush anonymous re:
   dears (dares) adventuresome mettle
   taking him/her to the brainy 
   (briny) deep brink
   Icon fess

this (NON FAKE) pretense, why
   aye metaphorically express
(via medium of ordinary Anglophile
   alphabetic wanton soup,
   or figurative egg drop bub
   bling broth (el) doth brew)

   pronouns Sibyl affectation 
   affliction sans plethora,
   where each ladle full adrip with
   richly flavor Verdana Font lee
   and sincerely textured vocabulary.

   Pluperfect mortals beings undoubtedly feel
   (blindsided, how this hunger stricken author
   suffers said sesquipedalian syndrome
   particularly expectorating flashy 

   hoping tum bark on successful literary quest)
   hyper aware aspiring paperback writers wannabe
   might stoop to conquer, cheat, cadge
   vis a vis plagiarize plethora 
  amidst storied plentiful English droppings.

Rather than succumb pretense feigning paucity
   temptation to bask exultantly,
   professed glorious unrequited love
   announcing required sworn vow,
(el lye ding) avowed consonant covenant.

Your Sensuous Sun

Is it for the fear of again being hurt
That you treat aspiring suitors like dirt?
If this be the case, then you should rethink
Your opinion on this, for you're on the brink
Of a grievous error without possible reverse,
By killing hope in a world where luck's sparse.

Many other lasses pray for this luck
But their hopes and stars are stuck,
They look east and turn south in wait
For some love-seeking men to give a date,
Yet all these you've received every day
And trashed all of them into the litter tray.

The dew of beauty now settles on your skin,
Your lustrous smile invites the urge of sin
But nothing unchanging remains save change,
Your sensuous sun grows in slow varying range,
And soon shall evaporate the glittering dew
That makes you rule both Gentile and Jew.

Such suns have existed before,
Yet all shortly shine and go.

Premium Member Ambition


      Aim to attempt, aspiring activity to attain goal.
      Maximize effort, multiply labour, marvel your soul.
      Be brave and bold boosting zeal searching for success.
      Intrinsic inherent irresistible stamina to access.
      Trust in self, tackle with confidence, take leaps on courage.
      ‘Impossible’ is the term to drive out with drastic rage.
      Onward ongoing opulence of energy for perfection.
      Never ignoring moral values, focus on AMBITION.

Premium Member Aspiring Alliteration Completed 2-28-23

All answers affect aspirations
By belittling bygone barbarizations
Constantly criticizing correlations
Defined dumbfounded dictations
Edicts evaporate everyone's expectations
Foregone frustrations failed flirtations
Gone great grace giving generations
Harmonies have harmonious hesitations
Impotence influences indignations
Justified judicious justifications
Killing kaputz keratinizations
Living life lonely leaves lacerations
My muse motivated monumental mutations
Nonsense needed no normalizations
Offended overintellectualizations
Past promises purely placations
Questioning quarreling quotations
Resisting relevant restifications
Sentient solutions solve segregations
Total trust triumphs trepidations
Utopias undermined ultralizations
Viciousness visualized victimizations
Worthless weaponizations
Xenodochial xenophilications
Yawn Yuppifications
Zenith zealousness zendrifications


Premium Member The First Avenger


He was a commoner ardently aspiring to become a soldier.
After a few disappointing initial failures frail Steve Rogers
got selected for the super soldier experiment in US military.
Serum injection and Vita-ray dosing made him muscular.

In fund collection campaigns during the trying times of WW II 
he toured the country in countless colorful fancy costumes. 
For his patriotic endeavors during the national exigency 
he was profoundly proud to be designated as Captain America.

He proved his worth as a brave warrior with startling ingenuity
when all the prisoners of war he skillfully succeeded in freeing 
by infiltrating alone the fortified fortress of the Hydra base
of the Nazi General Schmidt, nicknamed as crafty Red Skull.

To incapacitate him from using weapons of mass destruction  
Rogers gallantly tackled Schmidt inside his ingenious aircraft
that finally crashed in the icy waters of the desolate Arctic sea.  
Schmidt vanished in the dark space, Rogers remained untraced.

The Captain eventually woke up in an old style hospital bed
to a new life after seventy years from suspended animation,
a singular feat that befitted the amazing attribute of a superhero
who assimilated the extraordinary elements of the first avenger.

Premium Member Existential Rainbow


Fragile resolve aspiring 
to capture the remnants of rainbow, 
weave the lattice of life 
with spectral ribbons of rapture,
turns into a self-destructive 
psychosis syndrome
that fails to fling 
the insane illusion 
in the cloud of dreams,
for it has hypnotic leverage 
on the mind, 
mangled by sensual storm.

Wedged by the splitting bevel 
of the slashing time,
the frail fragments of failure 
get lacerated from life,
scatter on the pensive path
to the realm of rainbow, 
yet untraveled, 
meanders marooned
in the debris of derelict dreams,
disappear down the deep sinkhole 
of dusky oblivion. 

In the lucent mystique mind,
transmuting thoughts 
flicker on
ebony emotions.
Absolved of self-qualm
psychic crystal sparkles 
in sagacity stars’ aurora flare,
traces the prime trajectory
from the cosmic soul’s 
nebulous abyss within.

In the mesmeric meadow
of the inner topography, 
seraphic shadows dance mystified
with gorgeous sequined glitter 
of the sensuous stardust 
in the tune of
buoyant bliss.
The discernment mindscape 
makes the montage 
of the existential rainbow.

Priceless Prospective Professionals of Tomorrow Or the Next Day

when onset 
   of periodontal disease didst rear
innocuously unbeknownst then, 
   that...nada one tooth experts could spare
though grievously sad to bid teeth adieu

and second to none false teeth

   very satisfied patient

Premium Member She Sells Goat's Cheese, Not My Favorite

she sells goat's cheese, not my favorite
plying the beach ramada to ramada
at times she sits with me
lowering the basket from her head
her clothes are worn, patched
i roll eggs, beans, chorizo into a tortilla
hand it away, she always accepts
then throwing her arm over the chair
she begins the badinage
i understand little sometimes
others, far too much of humanities plight
i too throw my arm over the chair
rattle slowly in my aspiring Spanish
making verbal notes of words
similar in English and Spanish
she teaches verbs, vernacular
we share more than just language
if you would stand afar
you would think us old friends
lost in the chatter of complaints
news, reminiscing, and aren't we
the same expressions, gestures
friends in small talk
sharing a similar nature
delivering the points quite well
it is a beautiful day
we are happy to be alive
sharing breakfast, languages
she returns to her vending
soon Isabella will be by
with my freshly baked banana bread
Jorge will drop off the tamales
sometime this afternoon
and i will have gone to the bank
for money, Maria's children
are in need of school clothes
i return to the waves rolling in
watching the pelicans
riding the uplift provided by the surf
this is what i need, not poetry readings
life is a continuous poetry affair
that moves thru existence on wings
of opportunity to grasp it
cherish its every moment
neuropathways accompanying Death
in little smiles, no one hears

Premium Member Faerie Flower Therapy

Twinkling with mysticism,
magically peeping among fragrant
blossoms, reveling the aliveness of
frolicking, rollicking cousins.
Faeries congregate in tittering 
pairs, occasionally in triplets
or quads, encouraging, and cajoling.
Sagely inspiring lively flowers 
to show off their most beautiful.
Hiding from the non-believers,
delighting the rest of us, luring
us back into their gardens.
Aspiring us, and uplifting
us, without pixie dust, rather
 with soul feelings that sprinkle our
day with goodness – so pronounced,
we can only get it here.
Faerie flower therapy,
nothing better to aid 
in healing of psyche.
