Love Rekindled

Lovers each parted their ways,
Tears cause misty sprays.
Colder grew them both,
Love amid them was now an old growth.

Lovers wear on their poignant face a pair of abysmal drenched brows,
Each parted brow one crumpled, other rumpled as twinge, sonorous it grows.
Their ways parted but for scores to come both would grieve,
Tears to obscure make believe a poker face for all to deceive.

Cause misty sprays now quench and quell the fervent fires of the raving heart,
Colder grew to icier but a dim flame of passion lies to be kindled although apart.
Them both a score later brought face to face by fate or fortune to meet,
Love amid them, wedged, now flickered and glinted, sneering smiles as they greet.

Was now at hand frozen silence and two tear blubbering faces,
An old growth of love renascence and regenerates.
Now the feelings cold erase and hate displace,
To make way for their searching love to take them to a higher place.

To melt intrepidly into each other’s arms and embrace,
Depose and oust with grace the long worn mask of the poker face.

Premium Member Avernus Underconsciousness

The cypress trees at water’s edge hedge an entrance.
We circle senseless, aimless, wheezing from the stench. 
We are unprepared for this netherworld mischance,
this lifeless pool without birds where we entrench.

Drawn into the grotto leading to the abode of the dead,
we are alarmed to find the design is quite familiar.
Our handwriting and signatures cannot be misread.
All around our cacotopian creation seems so peculiar.

Dank alleys crowded; COVID corpses decompose.
Back when, we passively handed the reign of power
to a petulant fiendish bully we might not now depose.
His smirking cult spews contempt like a shower.

Meanwhile conspiracy capers cavort clucking tongues,
and we view our nihility specters, seeking our escape. 
But this vortex germ befouls the air, attacking our lungs.
Our vertigo fatigue means our breakout can’t take shape.

This is long lost Avernus, the black hole of our making.
Thoughtless, this virus only preys on any for the taking.

Premium Member Do Not Sell Your Soul

Do not sell your soul to a corrupt man,
Groveling to pay the Devil his due;
Stand together and thwart Trump's fascist plan.

Depose the Nazis and the Ku-Klux-Klan,
Let the world witness what patriots do;
Do not sell your soul to a corrupt man.

Fight the good fight the only way you can,
Go to the polls, let your vote speak for you;
Stand together and thwart Trump's fascist plan.

Thousands of lies since his campaign began,
Nothing this confidence man says is true;
Do not sell your soul to a corrupt man.

He claims to be an honest businessman,
Yet, he bullies people, threatens to sue; 
Stand together and thwart Trump's fascist plan.

He's imposing an immigration ban,
His view of America is askew.
Do not sell your soul to a corrupt man;
stand together and thwart Trump's fascist plan.

Premium Member The Vanity of the Flowers

Blooming colors in shade and sun;
Fragrant elegance, not to be outdone!
In field, garden and flowerpot,
The rose, the violet, and forget-me-not.

Proud and erect upon the stem,
All who pass must notice them!
Pastels and deeps; an array of brights,
Blaze the days and scent the nights.

Preening and dancing on summer's breeze,
In days of beauty.  Days of ease.
I've glimpsed them at noonday, rounding the garden wall-
Much too vain to notice me at all.

And seen them blossom in June morning's heat,
In sun washed loveliness and total conceit!
Scarlet and blue and orange and yellow,
In Red Valley.  In golden meadow.

Others bloom wild on desert sand,
Disdainful of a helping hand.
An ageless beauty that none could depose-
It's just the way it goes.

MANIFESTO

MANIFESTO

Three words inscribed on a bullet
Finger on a trigger ready to pull it
This system that does not concede
Free healthcare at the point of need
Or each citizen having their own say
Then they express in their own way

It’s politically influential Big Pharma
That have a different kind of karma
Money not blood, is the circulation
Feeding each medical organisation
Donations keeps it just the way it is
Even when retribution begins to fizz

With certainties like death and taxes
Just where now indeed is that evil axis
Industries may be considered corrupt
As insurance fees are simply upped
What does it really take to lift the lid
Pushing the poor down the pyramid

Social medicine is seen as communist
The truth is diverted and then missed
It’s not capitalism in everyone’s sights
Or choosing to distort human rights
But money makes the world go round
Despite extortion often being found

Yet murder cannot justify a murder
Even in a kind of government purdah
A message has been sent, to be sure
Remember ‘Sicko’ by Michael Moore
And now the sense of injustice grows
From the words, Deny Defend Depose

Premium Member A Wish For Peace To Appease

A heartfelt tribute to Ukraine and its people, 
         and all other nations and their citizens, for patriotically defending 
                         their motherland against tyranny and cruelty.
               






                                      A Wish For Peace To Appease


              It will be light soon, yet an upheaval devastates to extremes
              Time sadly blanket bleakness on landscapes and of the living
              Finding serenity missing, tears upon cheeks flow into ravines
              A pledge corroded without a word, no whisper, nor a warning

              Rippling wave of human despair triggered by war heightened
              Fear inundated with rage the gleam of the sun cannot soothe
              Battered fragments of hope palpable in the eye of the pained
              In essence, dejection needing real salvation, remain resolute

              Casualties in armed conflicts derails even the most tenacious
              The innocence of youth deprived of innate maternal embrace
              Ambiguity is a lingering reality to those in the midst of chaos
              While peace seems elusive, a unifying force unveils the maze

              To patriots needing to depose autocrat invading their country
              Crafting silver bullets aimed at vile men flaunting supremacy
              My heartened spirit stands alongside and honor their bravery
              They will undeniably reclaim freedom with dignity, in victory!

Premium Member Hunger For Life

"The unwavering human desire for perpetuity"
 
                                                  --by poet--







                                              Hunger For Life




Desperation reason with destiny to depose inevitability and find utopian coast

Longevity is not an impervious spiritual armor weakened by an invasive ghost

Inculcated within thoughts are prognostications of inexorable advancing years

Endeavors defying the rules of gravity regrettably culminate in shedding tears



Polar winds menace leaves steadfastly clinging on as tainted skies appear dim

Beyond freezing horizons anonymous newly departed faces wander in tandem

Grey whales returned and blizzards withdrew except old towns are in disarray

Hunger for life contesting dreadfulness anticipate the dissolution of a blue day

Premium Member No More a Virtue

When results are not in, the night the polls close
It gives rise to the lies from all those we despise 
From those who the liars all hope that we chose
The ones who dishonestly seek to depose
All but buyers of liars, wearing emperor's clothes

No longer a virtue…  if it ever was
You can search at the church but it won't likely cause
Plausible deniability to not rule the day
Which now has its sway 
In whatever endeavor for those who will pay

It's our terrible two's so we elected a toddler
Didn't think twice so we did it again
It's trying, this lying, there should be a trial
And trials like this are where it rubs thin
And thin skinned or weak chinned again it begins

But thin skinned or weak chinned, it matters not now
We must learn where we've been or we're going back now
And we'll keep going south, the further we go
As we live hand to mouth, til there's nothing to show
For the hard work put in to get us this far

We crawled, then we walked, then we talked a good game
Taught the world all the rules until they did the same
Now the world waits to see if we'll take the next step
To a healthy childhood, and then adolescence,
Responsible adulthood before our senescence

As a country we'd better learn from these lessons
And lessen the likelihood we've lost the essence
But waiting's not dating or baiting or hating
It's anticipating what we can do better
And we sure could improve on a lying bed wetter

Third times the harm sustained by the bluster
That fulfills the promise of all the King's muster
The Midas inside us has led to the crows
Who gather the shiny bits He always throws
And it's all worn thin as the Emperor's clothes

Premium Member Donald Trump

His passion for power weighs heavy
on his heart forging his decisions.
And he attacks sane politicians
leaking “fake news” out to depose him.

The whole world’s waiting for him to fall
yet none question his authority.
For thanks to Russian interference 
he won the electoral college.

Pacified by his gulf courses and
costly toys He maintains his image.
Yet they can't disguise the fact he lives
in an extravagant gilded cage.

His will’s enforced with merciless might
squashing any signs of rebellion.
For he rules with a iron hard fist
unchecked by the glove of compassion.

Trust's a luxury he can't afford
it could cost him the price of office.
And truth is simply nonexistent
in his quiver of indulgent whims.

Time is the ultimate crucible
impeaching his credibility.
And changing him incrementally 
until there’s nothing left but a clown.

He’s the alpha and the omega
war and terror are his to command.
And he is the harbinger of death
don't mistake him for anything less.

Premium Member Too Provocative

Russia valiantly fights 'a war of defense'
  against Ukraine which 'has given offense'
Can Russia depose 'the Nazi, Zelensky?'
  to end Ukraine's 'genocide of slaughtering Russenkis?'         (aka Russians)

Russia's 'defense of her people' is understandable
But are NATO's policies all-so-commendable?
NATO says 'Nyet' to to No-fly Zones -- 'too provocative'
  ~ Russia laughs at such 'justifications' for her to use her prerogative



________________________________________________________
Russia bombs a maternity hospital and a nuclear reactor; levels whole
towns; shells civilian apartment complexes indiscriminately -- and NATO
can't OK a 'No-Fly-Zone' -- a DEFENSIVE tactic! -- to stop it?!!! For the
sake of humanity, when will Western leaders find the courage to FIGHT 
this second coming of the murderous liar, Hitler?!!!!
