Long Blindfolds Poems

HEROES

Near somber guards, units of children heap 
dead leaves, naive to any else fallen.
Friend, you chuckle, but your posture speaks
of duty on this day of contradictions.

Firefighters bow heads in silent paean, 
while polished trucks stand...

This is ANDERSON WALKINGSHOES... 
VERSE 1:
All claim they revering Almighty GOD,
Same time hailing graven images as their lord.
Plainly they see it no wrong;
The inappropriate way of procuring mammon.
And their advertisment is just a come-on.
Now a...

dust had gathered on her many memories in outlines and heaps

had sheltered her from full on attacks of pain and self lacerations

the broom with razors attached right next to the end of the stick


inside lay...

Predictions work in twists of what makes life workable
High and often misconstrued by the dogma of science
Lies and damned lies and statistics for the insecure
Foes foretold surprise when the blindfolds shed masks
In the light of...

Wherever the winter falls,
upon snowflakes of a frozen saudade ~
rising from the flares
of maple-gold and copper,
I waltz in lilac lanes of petrified pigments,
imperfectly splattered by impure poppies ~
exhaling myself in a universe without you...

I feel terribly sorry for Rodger
He developed a kink in his todger
It looked such a sight
when bent to the right
that his poor wife ran off with the lodger! 

When his wife ran away from poor...

We faced each other in a circle as
we sat on chairs inside her classroom; then
she had us close our eyes. Perhaps we used
some blindfolds. I’ve forgotten details, for
it happened in my high school years ago.

In the meadow, of the fields of life burning ripe with ire, I lay. Falling into a nagging sleep away from all the begging flowers. Aloof into the night, with blindfolds to help me rest...

Coiled up for winter slumber it had rested the budding pledge

Soil still moist the promise is waiting for blossoms and sedge

To give host to migrating birds returning from busy regeneration

A miracle planted by knowing creation...

JEHOVAH REIGNS:

All in the hands of Beelzebub!
The tempter of mankind,
The ancient adversary of GOD,
Who can never over throw Jehovah.
Why does he causes men to fall;
By explicitly seducing men from ages to ages...
Corrupts and blesses them...

You knocked me down, I fell so hard
You tore me up, you broke my heart
But still I stood there by your side
while you ignored the tears I cried
never asked if I was okay
never cared that...

"The Begin Again Beings"

A family of swords
the world under their feet
to all that is fallen in the 
darkened passages beneath,
slipped on crushed pearls of tears
rivulets running down 
a body of work pierced,
the milky powder swallowed
from...

On one daring day, when the bruising sun was yet to set
And unfold the opportunities of an anticipated and hopeful day.
A bystander sprouted out from her shell into the dew
Hardly aware of the blindfolds of...

Too bad, for long has man shun a dark night.
But darkness ‘tis that lets deeper insight,
What opens up a rich treasure
That light blindfolds beyond measure,
It’s dark that unravels man’s inner blight
That no mundane light ever...

JUSTICE

They stare out at us unsmiling
from tintypes of the first photographs,
from the tea-colored pictures 
of thin, ragged immigrants, huddled 
in cold bare rooms in tenements,
children clinging, dazed and frightened, 
their paltry belongings tied in scarves.
They...

Once upon a time…

There was a man quite new to the world
Who kept his feelings bottled inside
Though from the start of his existence
For fear of judgment he would hide
The pain that’d haunt the things he...

We all have something to fear
It lies inside of our souls
It lies inside of our hearts
Into our brains it crawls
And starts tearing us apart

Eleventh grade is a fearsome year
They look at the teacher, and try...

Each of us has one;
each alone may see it,
and none is ever touched these days.
Its content, though, is real enough.
There little blocks of memory
are carelessly assembled,
rudely left by time to gather dust
that filters in to...

Sitting by the window, watching the life go by...
I tried to lean on my dreams, but they all have left me high n' dry.

Hope is gone now, so I say farewell my dear, 
But we...

We thought to care for her, to give her life
inside her tomb, surrounding her 
with sound and sight though second-hand, 
with all the light of knowledge 
and the color of our joie de vivre. ...

Close the door....
...and turn the lights off.
Touch my neck....
and listen....
....to the sound of me gasping....
As you gently rub my head...
Watch my eyes roll back...
I'm now in a state of submission.

You whisper in my ear,
"Now do...

My soles have felt the sands of time,
Slip through my toes and bury my heels,
At beaches where blood ran like rain.
I honor the memory of those that have fallen.

My hands have touched a sea that...
