Long Discoursed Poems

“On the Sonnet”
by John Keats

And, like Andromeda, the Sonnet sweet
Fettered, in spite of painéd loveliness;
Let us find out, if we must be constrained,
Sandals more interwoven and complete
To...

Arriving from unknown somewhere
He set up clinic in the market square
Declared he could cure any disease
Using herbal drugs of plants and trees
Townsfolk being credulous
Soon to his shop began to rush
Diabetics, rheumatics, asthmatics flooded
None over his...

I

As things do return home like a refrain, 
On way back from a country tour were we,
A leisurely long trip—my kin and me, 
And met a quaint character on the train,

Today’s world a chaotic gone,
Lies in sly a'Babylon,
That came to be a polemic,
With filth of doctrine a chronic sick,

"Moonlights Riddle"

"Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin bittersweet songs
Of melodies pure & true
Sayn
This is my message to you" (Bob Marley)

Tarnished in pain
Stained by woes decisions
Neddle points precision
Cuts deep

Underneath
We all bleed

Underneath
We all need

We all breathe
Breath

Underneath
We...

Traverses from the tower, to reach all ears,
Men in worldly activities, momentary – engrossed,
Set themselves free, to a transitory stop.

Water! Water! The entire landscape submerged
Grave silence! Except the torrents swift and huge
Intimidating sights, plains and valleys merged
Rushing above the tops of roofs with a surge

Clergymen discoursed it the Almighty's curse
The end of epoch, predictors...

Either struggle at talking now, 
Or struggle in armament later, 
Deal with the battle inside yourselves,
Or get others to face your fiery hater. 

Talking and discussion are always best, 
Considering and exchanging views,
Concerning yourself with...

i am contrite when i contrive when i ruthlessly deprive
i relate when i sedate when i have a happy plate-
my remorse is discoursed thoroughly,
forced to pout with a broken snout-
my plight is to unite to...

I walked on the sun and did not see the light
I walked through the graveyard with nary a fright
In childlike wonder I took no delight

I walked through the valley of death and I lived
Shared a...

The sun shown down
on the silken town
and magic was her name
ten thousand rooms
had come to tomb
and in the desert lain
The magics source
had once discoursed
the runes and tomes were gone
It's arrogance
had brought it hence
