Epigrams

Epigrams by Michael R. Burch

If brevity is the soul of wit
then brevity and levity 
are the whole of it.
—Michael R. Burch

To write an epigram, cram.
If you lack wit, scram!
—Michael R. Burch

Conformists of a feather
flock together.

For Them

For them.

To her the word love refers to a boy.
Something she yearns for and misses dearly.

The day they met was cold and fraught with January chill.

“Oh, that does seem so long ago.”

That is the untarnished...

In the abyss of a heavy silence, I feel like an anchor weighing down dreams

In the abyss of a heavy silence, I feel like an anchor weighing down dreams,
And the world seems an atlas that no longer knows how to bend me towards heights.
I call tenderly for shadows that...

Of ocean-choked shorelines owed Heav’nly device
   Sheltering I, this marooned guest on thine endless beach.
Safe House against...

A Willow Tree

Someday I'd like to wander free
like butterfly, like bumblebee,
perhaps to plant a willow tree
beside the silent solemn sea,

before these things exist no more,
from mountain top to shifting shore,
when, soon, bald eagles cease to soar
and build...

CODE SAD MODE
By Leon Enriquez


My heart knows how love hurts
Blush of wild fling casts dirt
By day sad dreary hues
By night pain comes on cue


My soul feels turmoil brief
As sadness marks high grief
My distress...

No More This and That

...no more this and that as
the sweltering pain distills empty chit-chat

in the clarity of the dawn
while blinded lovers fawn

the words that are spoken are mostly broken

meant not in truth but merely as a consolation token

Observations On the Bridge

Hart Crane tribute

forsake our eyes
  in a lovers cry
&sigh
    shadows sweep decends
that
   doubtful day:
a lie revealed
    now proved
first seen
in its fall
   on a cloud

Life as a River of Poems

Life as a River of Poems
As the poems flow in thousands, you realize
that you have created very little in the grand tapestry of existence.
Everything distills into rain, sunlight,
the relentless pulse of traffic, the endless cycle...

Our Journey

(Dedication: For Ann with Love.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Ann of my days,
Days that fan cheer,
Cheer weaves each play,
Play that lives here.


Style wears a smile,
Smile that funds cheer,
Cheer lives each mile,
Mile where love piles.


Grace wears a face,
Face of fond light,
Light...

Unique Starry Shine In Your Eyes


The opaque grains of darkness drizzle silently
from the curved cauldron of the seamless onyx sky.
The silver embroidered satin tapestry rolls out 
from the copious cornucopia of the nascent night,
as the twilight tinsels dissolve in azure...

Reverse Polarity

The obsessive free-will seemingly dormant,
enwraps the misty mind with an unreal veil, 
obscures the destination God would decide,
l’ve to reach for I should at His designed will. 

The unseen glow of the omnipresent light

  ABYSS 

Abyss, a Place of Redemption
solace space curling then unfurling 
here we sail drowsy dark seas
no boats or oars, unaccompanied
converse with walrus and whales 
black shimmers silent, we brook it

Abyss, a cloak of...

Beckon Roses and Daffodils

The challenges that life instills
Fighting over mounting bills
Somehow though our needs are

Faith be strong, nar ye forget 
It's not about the perks and

Sleepless

A raw quiet
stretches like a membrane
across the night.
Pulled tight it waits to amplify
the slightest sound.
Each passing minute dials up
the volume of a nerve
strung to snare
the powdery whispers of a moth
or the faint ticking wheezed
out of...

Lovely

My heart hears music
In the mundane things;
My mind swirls mystic
In the sighs I sing.


A certain pulse flings
A passage of rhymes;
In sensorial spring
Poise in thousand chimes.


Feel the colours play
When spring comes calling;
Feel the myriad ways
That stir...

Blood and Water

The bitterness brims and bubbles away

As the heart that once felt love over-spills.

Leaving only burnt ashes left to stay

Betrayal hurts more, as vengeance distills.



As the heart that once felt love over-spills

Venomous asps bite down on...

Quietus

In a mire brewed
betwixt puddles of hell and mute dissent 
a martyr wades - 
weighed down by chains of shame and disdain
alas the thirsting self-absorbed swamp
distills and swills her stewed silence 
and swallows the last...

Song for the King

Oh! My choked voice
Thundering bits of utterance
Flowing streams of strong desir 
My heart pierced words
Ah! Ah! Comes my voice

Oh! My shackled voice
Free me from this prison
My bounded heart desire
Proclaim my enchanted words
Ah! Ah! Comes my...

Djinn

O'er dales and parched wells she flies
Come morning she'll blind
With her hypnotizing mist 
And low whispers

Whispers that writhe the mind in agony
That have dazed the children
Of the Round City 
As they prolix about the loud...
