Long Consequential Poems

in an experiential kind of way,
and a trans-biblical swell known sway,
and I can imagine a world with healthier,

turkey flock
playful otter, too.

The white heron
a great blue,
white phase,
in the abandoned beaver pond.

Purple clematis
its long-awned achenes
in globose heads
spidery, fiery, extravagant fruit!

To identify or classify
birds by
the complexity or beauty
of their songs.

And so

Hidden beauty resides not in the grace like charms
Of coy smiles 
Painted across a gentle Madonnas face.
Nor is she vested within the chastened vows
Of saintly knights; encased Great-Helm:
Thus maketh the pale maidens meek pulse
To so...

The beautiful days were here again, as sunshine lit blue skies,

So that all could remember, a...

What if you were an inhabitant of a world
Where there's no hate, greed, jealousy, envy, and pride;
And one is not enraged by the prosperity of another?
What if conceit and enmity are erased from the course...

I  seek a better life far beyond depression
My mental state needs to be repaired
Along with it, I need compensation for being born;
I did not ask for it.

Till then shall love be but my peace...

I was a city born and city bred young fellow,
whose shoes had mostly only touched concrete and tar.
Oh yes I had seen grass, but out on a footy ground

I'm a speech punk; kind of a menace
Not sure if the word is permissible in these parts
But that's the word I need, life's a furnace
So flush that. Gosh, you leave me no choice
I'm trying to...

The pleasure of debauchery now wanes 
As nature's faulty wisdom did intend. 
And disillusion from confusion reigns; 
Such cruelty no man can comprehend. 

Infused design to lose the joys of bliss 
While hurling toward the...

Till the end.
Was he perfect?  Don’t know?  But if So?
When he told the Pharisees that they were of their father the devil?
Was he sinning?  Was...

the blinding lights of the city blotting out the beauty of a

I wonder what we missed this time - so preoccupied with our
earthly troubles...

As Shadows Mend

A lingering bravura form ... dawn midst twilight's brilliance,
It sprung a length of an unscathed course -- accidentally,
The mute vim snugly stamped unfilled, credulous of malice,
Flightiness stemmed from...

Wise Postulations of Existance for The Damned

Solitude the pathway for self authentication
Interludes of what to say in the process of individuation
Attitudes of slow decay born from ill-considerations
Platitudes in early May about spring time commiserations

He is truly divine,
This heart of mine!
He's my oldest friend,
And a friend to the end.

The Master of glory;
And the bible's story.
One of peace and love,
And blessing from above.

The rose petals open,
To let the sun pour...

WATER IS LIFE
People ignore me because of my simple nature
If you ask me, I would not hesitate to say;
When the creator takes, I take, however, every other thing comes after me.
As a liquid, so colorless...
