competing cousins, interbreeding homo-sapiens
  hominins humming mostly human song
  altruistic generalisers, ever close to dying ways
  opportunistic, never staying long

Today May 12th, 2021
at Royersford (Pennsylvania) LIDL,
when spouse stepped into checkout line

pushed courtesy yours truly).

While passively standing stock still

just jabbering gibberish (A - J)

Again, another awkward ambitious
arduous attempt at alphabetically
arranging atrociously ambiguously
absolutely asinine avoidable alliteration.

Because...? Basically bonafide belching,
bobbing, bumbling, bohemian beastie boy,
bereft bummer, bleeds blasé blues, begetting
bloviated boilerplate bildungsroman,

Gods Fire
God’s Fire!

Most accidents are avoidable, 
I’m sure you would all agree, 
In modern society, high-tech, 
Where things are more robust.
 
All my relatives believed in, 
God, Jesus and the holy trinity, 
But since there is...

Its Not To Late For Change Contest
If it was 1942 
Relationships would carry substantial views
Since about 1983 
Things have changed drastically

Backwards, zig- zaged, upside-down 
Destroyed traditions have become muted sound
Men are getting milk for free
While feasting on all the meat they...

Into Slow Void, I Challenge Time
Cruelest thoughts overwhelm
beyond the patrol
beyond the drowning sunlight
firelight creeping up my back,
grab your camera and attack
a moment that doesn't hear
the glowing blue
I should have kept in a faerie jar

ajar is my mind,
hinges broken, hinges built
100...

Voice of Nothing
Here we are
a title of a song, a transitional statement with no meaning
does it really serve a purpose
delaying the inevitable train-wreck these words will incur
I concur
words are meaningless, disastrous
If they were of any help

The Woman That You Are
Knit by the Greatest Unknown,
You please the eye and captivate the soul,
How you're shaped, 
How you're divinely coded with colour, 
How you are carefully chiseled into form, 
How you are bountifully toned at essence,
My aesthetic...

CLOSED EYES

For a false peace of mind, to what degree, 
will closed eyes spare oneself to see?

A desperate man breaking in, 
Doors are closed in his face,
Qualified but denied, for his ethnic race.

Silent cries of...

My Heart Is Content Not To Fly
Once upon a tragic, forsaken love,
A wish miscued from somewhere above.
So incorrect, 
I could not detect,
Nor should expect, 
Our bond fit like hand to glove.

A sour lullaby, sang a love you couldn't feel, 
Naive to...

Again these men comes to mind,
Paid to say yes and nay,
Lame duck,

Canker, queer rapscallion minds
Incorrigible,
Political impostors detached from the humdrum of street cries
Maggots in honor
Damp squib temples of legislators
Dishonorable honorable,
Rotund circles of rascals
Fellows fit for...

We were made to survive the pain, and the conflicts.
We were made to overcome evil.
Destined to endure.
Live despite obstacles and roadblocks.

A precipice not of change but of acknowledgement
a chasm of which seemed bottomless and timeless to one's fall
Sometimes a burden, trapped beneath this fallen treant.
Finding yourself here from nothing but pride and gall.

Sometimes we try to hide our fears
By trying to fake a smile
We take pleasure in shutting down people
From unnecessary facets of our lives.
Due to the unfriendly moments we are caged in,
We cannot even pretend to...
