Tumi Boruna hole hobo

In an unfolding poetic hymn of yours, 
I will be the poet, with zealous zeal,
A Sky, unwrapped the horizon of yours, 
while,  I was a lonely, soaring seagull 
Running brook of yours had a murmuring sound, 
though, tranquil water touched mine
Within the rainy season,and your riverine landscape,
I will be the estuary, rushing to a shrine.
The mountainous high of your beauty 
will be ever, an epic greenery of mine
In a pacing mayhem, in your controlling high, 
I will be thy resurrection.
Be a forest in the deep, I will be the chirping bird, 
in the camouflaging nature.
Salty tears of yours will be an anecdote 
in these eyes, too, of mine, in pairing venture.
Wider outskirt of life and love of mine, 
may it rush to yours, in prime time..
In an embroidered quilted story of yours, 
I may be found, often in a silence of chime.
Na re na.. na.. na.. 
On a night, as dense as a silence, I will be thy color
On a moment of unfolding nature and bliss, 
I will bring a surging silent uproar.
In a poem, singing bold and loud, I will be thy poet.
Wider outskirt of life and love of mine, may it rush to yours , 
in prime time..
In an embroidered quilted story of yours, 
I may be found, often in a silence of chime.
Na re na.. na.. na..

Tale of a Former Black Sheep

For years I wore
your shame as my own
and lived unknown
in terror of being seen
like a leper
self-quarantined
intrinsically unclean

Your neglect
became to me
my insignificance
undeserving of your glance

Your abuse
became to me
my fault and utter blame
my soiled but rightful name 

Your abandonment
to me
was my unworthiness
unfit and valueless

'Til this layered shame became
a camouflaging cloak
wrapped about with care
disguising me as if
I wasn't even there

How I avoided them
my friends so true
for they could plainly see
the agony in me
and I couldn't control
it radiating through

Yet butterflies won't stay bound
in crippling cocoons
integrity impugned
by wings that cannot fly-
and I at last have found
the answer to my wounds
in exposing you
and all your lies

You were cruel-
I do matter

You were guilty-
I am not to blame

You were unfit-
I am worthy

You nearly destroyed me-
But I overcame

Now my only dread is
of leaving this world
as un-notably as I came
as invisibly as I lived
to be known only 
by others
as unredeemed as
you thought me to be-
No! the truth
will set me free...

I humbly give
this cloak to you
it was yours to wear
not mine to share

I'm through

I'm through

I'm through.

Premium Member Emerald Echoes - Anacreontic Verse


I'm an emerald
echo of earth's
caterpillar, a
camouflaging
hiatus of muse
midst karmic rainstorms.
Enslaved to jealous
stars flaming within 
infernal wings,
I yearn to spellbind
sacred heaven's throne, 
chasing subconscious 
liberty in crowned
soul of marine eyes.
Tracing saffron
fingertips in
silent smokes of
Venus, willingly,  
I've scarred tuscan shine
of Aphrodite
with pearl's thermal ache.
So now, when new year's
first sunflower sings ~
breathing ambrosia
in gemstones of
bejeweled healing,
a poet shall be
reborn as a
ruby-amethyst,
snowtail butterfly.

Perturbed Not, I Am Fine

This hymn which is achingly beautiful, 
reminds me of you. 
Indication of love and it reminds me of you. 
It's been quite long, 
and exhausted I am, of camouflaging my feelings for you. 
Never realized when I slipped in love with you. 
Perturbed I am not, 
I am fine. 
This heart now a lunatic, 
slowly slipping down to the oblivion. 
Evocative thoughts of your scent, 
swells up my eyes with tears. 
Perturbed I am not, 
I am fine, 
resonance of your voice still lingers in my ears. 
Evening's I ignite the lamps around your scented memory, 
eyelids turn moist which once used to drench, 
thinking of you. 
Mutilated I am, 
just left to be scattered away. 
With few debris of your feel, 
that still remains to quit. 
Perturbed I am not, 
I am fine.

Premium Member Unassailable Purity

When accidental 
auroras stroll along 
the pale highlights of
camouflaging corpses
and death blossoms
in vulturous hearts of 
dreadful puppets, 
she always holds
pixie dusts of 
strawberry seeds within 
october's obsidian quartz. 

Gaze beyond those
glass-stitched horizons, 
as she cracks the 
carmine cocoon of 
judgemental juxtapositions 
and transforms 
carbon-coated 
milliseconds to 
magenta-gold 
pronunciation of 
peaceful phrases. 
She is a silken 
cream-dove, 
floating above 
murky musings of 
redolent rhinestone-
reveries. 

As prismatic primroses 
shall cleanse every 
sin from the witching 
spellbook, she will waltz 
in whispering lulls of liberty,
emancipating from 
chloroform-stained 
chains of blood-
scented blames. 

Her sunflower-shield 
and aurous 
summer-sword of 
amber poesy
can slice spicy 
silhouettes of 
graphite goblins, 
she will never 
surrender to those 
misinterpreting
megalomaniac minds, 
who twirl along 
masquerading rivulets 
of manipulative 
assumptions. 

She is the shiniest roar
above grimoires of grief, 
like an 'unassailable purity', 
washing away 
emerald exhales of pain, 
who mutes each cosmic
raven's lament and 
distils russet-white-lilies with 
her alchemical aroma.

Fierce Fictional Fraternal Fallout

That dormant feeling of insecurity arose,
when travel journal got thrust adjacent
     to my tattered (holey tattooed) clothes
while I knew with crossed eyes

     aroused anger from peaceful doze
my younger sister felt about her
     globe trotting exploits, an over expose
jour ever since voyaging out on her own

     after graduating top of her class
     where mine hatred glows
indirectly snidely sneering
     at ma dough less brother hoboes

(a 1979 Methacton High School alumni),
     unanimously chosen valedictorian
     dressed in Calvin Klein
     Harris tweed, couture

     and silk panty hose
like me prolonging, promoting
     on par with quasi staff sergeant, who knows
artful disciplinarian gingerly launching rules,

     asper formerly commanding G.I. Joes
     and pronouncing, predilection
     exhaling natural highs no lows
traveling solo, with surviving Wilburys,

     or just mows 
zing nonchalantly
     (though a foreigner) with swarthy skin color
     easily camouflaging as civilian
     all points on the compass,

     where minute needle doth nose
upon returning home (being honorably feted
     at once glorious estate of Glen Elm,
     where she did propose

to the Lord Taylor (swiftly), which location
     situated at 324 Level Road, Collegeville,
     Pennsylvania 19426),
     thence a great huzzah a rose

an immediate nauseousness welled
     within from me head tummy smelly toes
I did not want to here, or see any details,
     which would accentuate personal woes

popping, snapping, and smarting,
     and slapping skin raw tib bits,
     ache'n to yanked strings
     of mama's heirloom yo-yos!

Poet Script:

trials and tribulations,
     visited upon head of young
concocted ("FAKE") gusty and gutsy
     kid sister enterprising ingenue,

     christened easy on the tongue
Sharodd (not her real name),
     to top off talents sung
like a professional opera singer, which rung

a shiver along small hairs of spine did tingle
heard all the way to Lake Woebegone
where bachelor farmers did mingle

every Christmas, a decreasing 
     number donned Kris Kringle
hit with blitzkrieg of yawping brats 
     hoof pranced to bell weather jingle!

Premium Member Mom's Eulogy

It's already hard enough to say anything accurately
without further obfuscating and camouflaging the soul.
The faces in the funeral pews are impassive, impatient
and the dead woman cares not what's said, isn't even present.

The poet gets innumerable do-overs, it's one of man's wonders,
revises his vision of his mother and plays her piano, posthumously.
Why not say it simply? Hers was a comity and a tragedy.
As are ours. And perform the history that surrounds us.

Are caskets boats? The ship of death rides Charon's waves
or perhaps on that solitary day you happily kayak to the huckleberries.
Is the deeper sadness incomplete achievement or never to have tried?
Any attempt to decide this question for others is to badly behave.

The pablum of Christianity, esp. the Catholics, re the after life
must be rejected. It's necessary. To be replaced by community,
perfection of the human project, nature's intelligent partner.
Dusty, sadly habitable houses along the funeral route, shapeless

people crossing themselves when ambulances or hearses pass.
I wanted to describe the sweetness of her life, how she was part
of the problem and part of the solution. How love and evolution
are passed like loaves from person to person down the generations.

Find the humor in the cholera. When my father died
he waved like a surfer riding a wave or a clown riding
an elephant out the circus tent. Mom follows the same law.
The many ways a spear can pierce a brave warrior's jawbone or armor.

Premium Member Feed Your Need

Oblivion's needles and lines
camouflaging an ugly truth.
By using dope to escape life,
your addiction drains you of youth.

Drugs synthesize reality,
magically banishing pain.
And you live lies disguised as bliss,
seduced by the lure of cocaine.

On the road to self-destruction,
you tread upon the hearts of friends.
For, in worlds of your creation,
everyone hustles and pretends.

When highs morph into misery,
resistance drowns within your tears.
But you don't try to get away,
for hope's been denied you for years.

You're trapped in a web of deceit,
delusion's shackled to greed.
And you've strayed beyond salvation,
living only to feed your need.
