Mend My Wounds

Hover over my trauma, sharp as a vulture, swoop
Surround old scenarios with an offer to devour
Wipe the memory card of pain I play on loop
Grab my glitches with talon weapon power
Wounds bouncing red announce danger


Jab at, stab, peck out infection, empty of pulse
Rip it, sniff the adrenalin, swallow all sorrow 
Pluck eyeball delicate, until blank as dolls'
They blink thanks, hurt healer Hallowed
Wounds open have happiness follow


Latch onto my carcass, alight at cliff side guard 
Reptilian talons take off, lift me limp and ripe
Black soil fall apart, fresh organs' harvest
Seasons redefined by your vital swipe
Wounds swept ride a wayward kite


Feather buffer bolstering capable chest convex
Adopts torment, swiftly rids it from intruder                                           
Cleansed, amended by aves benevolence 
Oblivious to doubt with bathed bruises
Tandem scourers never marooned




                            18th April 
            Empathy ate pain

Past years of lives of ages gone
yet dark shadows shaping choices,
hiding unrecognized options
waiting for New ReSolutions.

Future lives unraveling evil absent
blinders
doubling over crying laughter
days of PreHistoric Futures
cooperatively over-invested in competing
to Win a race only won through losing
Ego's monocultured nighttime face.

Past tears seeding passion's future flowers.
Flowers tearing weeds' convexing past repression.
Regenerating concaved echoing fusions
deeply recessing degeneration's fission,
co-arising to co-fall PolyPerennial Harvest
of ReSolutions.

Reverse-cycling trees praying through root systems
Their feathered leaves may climax each timeless day
to rest deeply ruthless shy fear of unending sad sacrifice
fogging elation's joy in timeless glad elation
for this ReGenerate PostIndustrial Season
of ecotherapy deductively induced
Natural RootSystemic Reason.

Future years of loves 
of ages co-emerging
bicamerally enlightened form
as eco-balancing Tao function,
bilateral Time bowing Namaste
facing Elational Space's NonZero ZenAsDay,
spirited concave forms 
emerging Time's naturally harmonic 
complex function.

Natural Science merging Spiritual ConScience,
Transitional Generation cooperatively growing Post ReGeneration,
Physics polypathing MetaPhysics,
EcoSystems dancing 4-step MultiSystemic Dialectical Therapy

Hope faithing Active Love,
Energy revolving Synergy, conjoined as Integrity

Iterations evolving CoEmpathic ReIterations,
Oppositions co-arising NonDual Appositionals,
Yintegral dual-dark enthymeming YangYin cosmic-logical balance,
ionic tipping points co-drawing nondual ergodic-holonic harmony,
Win-Lose Becoming Win-Win Being

(0) cooperative Elation radiating Prime Ego/Eco Relation
TaoTime wealth investment 
regenerating RNA strings of cooperative health

Old Year's concave Eve begetting New Year's Timeless convex Day
co-arising 
dream embracing compassions

Nationalism,
nation supremacy,
rooted in competing patriarchal capital rivalries,
is entirely incompatible with EarthPatriotism
rooted in loyalty to cooperatively healthy matriotism

Wherever MotherEarth may yet be healthy climate rediscovered
in sensory input and outputs of a child
unbound breathing in enculturing good humor

Still fully awake
meaning much more than not yet dead,

Embracing Earth's Paradise found
means far more than ending homelessness,
bareness,
hopelessness,

For restoring cooperative peace
more than competing retributive-avoidance models
for justice as invoking a fee 
and loss of freedom punishments
while preaching skills in anger and depression management,
but silent about happiness and compassion cooperative ownership.

Competition in nationalism,
whether white
against pink,
royal purple
against ultra-violet feminist,
even green
against black and brown prejudice,
each autonomously anti-ecological nationalistic stew
when we simmer down
into non-violent communication
of spatial Here
with temporal Now,

Competing FirstChoice nation-states
miss golden global opportunities
to embrace healthier polycultural outcomes
of multicultural cooperative grace,
polypathic WinWin karma,
polyphonic musing face
of Earth's well-timed expansive soul
revolving space

A healthy organic way to speak
and think
and feel as a day and night revolving child
naturally embracing WinWin 
co-redeeming spiritual ecopolitics.

Violent competitions,
mutual abuse and neglect,
between ZeroZone sacred nations
are antithetical to cooperative conversations,
planning and nature development,
in EarthTribe non-violent WinWin communication

CoArising nighttime dreamscape melodies,
non-conspiring feeling peacefully immunized
against conspiracy theories
playing WinLose roles
embracing evolutionary predative jihad anxieties,
risks to bully or become bullied by chaotic capital climates
and internal bicameral storms,
nightmare feelings nauseously disassociating inside from outside,
ego against eco,
concave overbearing convex,
ZeroZone soul ignoring OneZone body's primal needs and feelings,
Right bipolar conflicting Left dipolar co-arising

EarthSoul Health integrity
prefers co-reflecting 
4-SpaceTime Revolutionary Boson Models--
opaquely expanding DNA-structured splendor.

I dream of magic lines but they  elude me.
Chapbook on acrylic tube  palette, janus-faced cave in 
at the crack of dawn,
crescent moonlight awnings turn to  circus of the  soul, 
images that colour dullard pages leave furrow on my 
hayrick haggard brow. 
Backwater sonnet form leaning  towards some meadow compost rot.
Ghost written silhouettes, shatter fragile eggs on 
loop pile Berber carpets,
yolk stain and pale brown chicken hash tags.
Tight rope knot escarpment found in tripod camera verse,
cliff edge heart-stop paen is just another
blue-sky canon over billed by birds of prey. 
Poetic licence pointer to a learner permit doggerel, 
aspiring metre patchwork but a tapered column 
lost in grey day whimper. 
Guangdong province text in lychee pink for window glaze.
Fleeting notions dangle at the sparrow hawk crossroads,
while grazing skinny red ballon formations overhead.
Mother of invention please shine your convex beam
upon this wellspring drought abandonment I swim in. 
Sudden brain cell drafts a Jack-o’-lantern of disjointed phases,
stretcher bear the legless phrases that leave me 
wheelchaired and infirmed in woolly states.
Timeline mainstream woofer whose lagging jacket hemline falls apart,
areole reduced branch slowly bleeds its cactus juice of inspiration.
A rush, a fever, quotidian fever,
no greater longing can us writers have.

I was a child informed to be like Jesus
and so I did my very best
to imagine myself to think and feel,
act and believe, as Jesus might have done
at least on Sabbath rest

And so it was
I gave birth to imagining
God as ManBoy
just like me,
except He loves me just as I am,
co-arisingly.

If I were Jesus
as We are meant to be,
then ReGenerative God is love 
without weekday mediocrity

So why then suffering and painful loss
even when We co-gravitate 
toward EarthTribe's sacred Boss?

With omnipotent live-power 
currently cooperating integrity,
We still struggle with Christ Dominant 
competing monotheistic

for short integrity
of both MindGate and BodyPath

From Black Feminist Hole
through White Patriarchal Pole,
Beloved dialectical resilience
of resonantly healthy 
nonviolent communication.

Jesus invited me to say that,
because it would compel engagement
rather than darkly molesting entertainment

And be way more peacefully therapeutic
than all this suffering dross
and painful cross
and traumatic loss
discovered in Western HisStory's monotheistic
and excommunicating

A Woman Who Walks On a Moonlit Path

A woman goes on a moonlit path 
between twenty-four and zero hour.

She walks on the past 
harboring enmity in her bruised heart 
the heart that is torn to pieces by the many blowing winds. 

She goes into the distasteful past
which has many holes caused from severe punishment she underwent,
and that is why no matter how much you stuff your fond memories 
or how you pack your affections in it, they simply leak out.

While staring in the present lying between twenty-four and zero hour 
through a convex lens formed by her tear, thereby magnifying present she sees, harsher and crueler than it might, 
she sighs “no one to blame but myself, 
it’s nothing but a bad karma.”

As the moon wanes in the west 
the eastern sky becomes brighter with dawning sunlight.

Premium Member Knife's Edge

I often wonder at a knife-edge.
I thank, for this, the master craftsman;
Shine or dull; sharp; or blunt like a wedge,
Within them, hides vast arts a million.

Assortments of knife-edges I know.
V edge: for veggies! Tool of mothers;
Convex V: splitter's sharp stiletto.
Scimitar: beloved of butchers.

Chisel-edged: Japanese Acetone!
Sushi knife-edge - Awesome! Rudely spiky!
Serrated-edged: bread-knife, common-known,
Without which my home might look empty.

Macbeth and Caesar deadly daggers,
Had edges worth catharsis crisis;
Atrocious murderers and gangsters,
Used them for their cutthroat serials.

Fights brawled; won and lost; at knife-edges.
History has witnessed man's follies;
Chopped heads, hands, mutilated organs;
Yet, graves bejeweled with white lilies…!

Slash fruits! Slit vegetables! Slice bread!
Shatter shackles! Free all the enslaved!
Think once, twice, thrice before lives you shred.
Lives lost cannot be re-assembled.


“Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.”(Hebrews 4:13)

The Recepticle : One of a kind

Recepticle:  One of a kind

It was a thoughtful gift
in the shape of her heart

Symbolic inscription-
"Love's Everlasting Hopes"
kept next to the front door
In shadow, in half-light.

She kept her car keys there.
Small change, new receipts
pins and paperclips, pens
lipstick, bangles, spare things...

Simple concave, convex
Moulded mind-heart shape
Porcelain pale shadow
Clear intent left it there

Till the time came when smirk smile
black hate eyes stepped inside
sleight of hand side-swipe flick
despise, devalue, discard
done with splitting, slitting
pound of flesh sacrifice-

So easy to replace, 
no end to his supplies
She only had One Heart
for him, no Big Surprise, 
a common vessel trade
for his communal use

Belly feels deep pity
for its now shattered state, 
She drops to hands and knees
Picks up each fragile piece

bright blood drips from fresh cuts 
thin red lines smear love read,
Torn vessel spills plasma
tears, love is precious life

Dustpan holds bits and pieces... 
Impulse to throw away
Hesitation- thoughtful
ancient wisdom whispers, 
revalue all for gain
Again, a gain, again

She knows  what she can do... 

Fix it with liquid gold

Now it gleams in the dark.

Premium Member Poetic Prehension

Poets prehend self-governing structures
in natural ways that seem more enlightened
than pedants of partisan evolution.

Prophets predict self-help co-redemption
in ways that really could seem more enlightened
than preachers of competitive economics.

Time's wisdom con-sciences co-arising information
within polypaths comprehending light's full-tempered power
to mutually mentor multicultures of healing evolution, 
conscientific body/mind-full consciousness,
cosmological 
ecological 
biological 
geological 
wealthy logical universal health care paradigm,
dispelling fractal-faceted semantic structures
of space/time's deep RNA-rememory language,

Folding concave holes 
to unfold convex polarities again
through great turning revolutions

In which peace poets 
and passionate preachers
and probing prophets
prehend Earth-governing structures
in naturally spirited ways 
more enlightened
than polarizing pedants
of disempowering devolution.
