Glory To Thermodynamics
and spoils of Western Civilization.
Thrum of the central heater...
manually activated upon advent of twilight
(since yours truly not resident within "smart home"),

The Way
Wondering, pondering, contemplating
The moments when I’ve felt different
Because of my ideas, my dreams, my feelings
The way I think and the way I believe
Struggling to be who I am inside my heart
Instead of someone who is...

To Good Health
Jack Sprat and wife Mary, lived in a glory of lemony, chiffon days;
Like maroon birds keep on singing, until the sunset, orange phase.
They were comfy and happy, like a picnic in lavish, emerald grass;
And had...

Love's Cry
There's a moment everyday where we choose to listen to love or ignore its cry.
Though ignoring it gets easier when we don't even try.
We get so caught up in our own lives that we no...

Facets of a Faucet
Before my mid-life realization
My life was like
Sitting naked
In an empty bathtub
With my knees
To my chin
My arms wrapped tightly
Around my thighs
A blank expression
Upon my face
My skin
Dry and shriveling
From lack
Of...

Wee Hours
Another eve of another day
shrinks to wee hours;
the only light flashes dim
from a distant lamppost.
My mind’s contrarily still charged
with words, chores, lists, sacred places,
mountainous memories,
and then a thought that hasn't visited in awhile…of...

Grave Revelations
The water, it takes me off of my chosen path
A place from where many men have never come back
The water, it’s rising now and I must not think twice
To leave what is material to save...

Because of Just One Poetess
BECAUSE OF JUST ONE POETESS
I let go of living in sadness.
My life seemed going nowhere,
and looking back now, it all
seemed like madness!
It wasn't because she did
gymnastics with boorish
poetic forms.
Nor was she cute or wordy.
using only...

Facade
She tries and tries to act tough.
She tries and tries to act like she does not care.
However, what some do not see
Is the passion building up inside of her unexplored territory.
Yearning to be...

The Kiss of Death
The kiss of Death is sure to be enticing
Filling up confused humans
With powerful orgasms
As to cause them
A change of existence!
For that kiss have I been waiting for
Dreaming and fantasising about it
As would a princess totally

Political Chicanery
Political Chicanery
By Franklin Price

Political chicanery
Are spoken words I say
Slightly bending of the truth
Is the politician's way
If uttered words can scrambled be
To turn the meaning 'round
I think I can quite manage
To pound them in the ground
Excuse...

Sunrise,Come Quickly
As my tripping footsteps
enter deeper into the path of intense darkness,
I start feeling the trance of trepidation
and much despised misery
seaps through me with a sense of admonition;
the night owls cold eyes immovably glare
to confine...

I'M Unhappy With Fifa 16
I’m Unhappy with FIFA 16
I'm unhappy with FIFA 16.
Passing's no good, the
transitions sloppy. 15 was
better: more excitement, maybe a banal
pleasure in how my plays tend to line up
centre and build up...

A Brand New Day
"To Him that made great lights, His Mercy, endureth,
forever"
Man is not God but suffers when
man acts as Him.
He grows weary being Him, or
contrarily plays helpless. Never thinking of asking
God for help.

Like acid secreting from my mouth,
This is where you have led me.
Holding on to something that I cannot just ignore.
I refuse to put my heart...

Cold Season
Window curtains in my room sway with the silent winds;
The cold smog crawls on the frozen garden covered with the mists.
I see everything slowly fades but the splendor around never chagrins.
Would it be romantic to...

Foundations
Foundations
What are you building your foundation on,
Solid Rock, or quicksand?
A foundation built on solid rock has staying
power, withstanding the test of time.
Contrarily, a foundation built on
quicksand is never steady.
It does not matter how quickly you...

Afraid
Uncertainty has been clouding my thoughts for months now
Because you have never once
Expressed how you felt
After I blurted out those three little words.
You have yet to tell me,
Your feelings,
So I can...

Memento on the Moon
The Moomagatta is very heavy.
And being the strongest astronaut around,
I knew, for Earth's sake, I had to be ready.
Not a month later on the powdery surface I touched down.
The Moomagatta and me bounded downward in...

Fritillaria, (Snakes Head)
Where diamonds shape a lantern
harlequins are taunted in jest,
which inaugurates the conviction
attracting an upheld stance.
They stare like a drastic mistake;
thinking it was a corn snake.
Warily, from side to side, surprise!
one way or the other fully...

The Trouble With Poets
is that they never tell the truth,
and if by accident, they occasionally
come near to any kind of truth
they tend to get hives,
or shake uncontrollably.
We shouldn’t expect them to be truthful,
it’s asking too much....
