Long Divined Poems

The three enigmas of Turandot

The well of souls run deep in fabled lands of old.

a ballad of love and loss that must be told.

The Emperor's daughter,...

Moment to moment, all moments entwined,
I feel the touch of magnetism divine,
the source of which, by mind is not divined

      In the purple shadows of the black's monoliths, where an ancient echo calls forth, at the blurry forge of "Ralkon Dis",

HeteroSapiens have bipolar developed
miraculous capacities
to stretch and blur
legitimate moral peace initiatives
subordinate to licit legal judicial systems

Judiciously approved punishment

cardinal

and original sins
requiring flat fees
regardless of capacity to pay,
imprisonment,
enslavement,
lynching,
beheading,
burning at the stake,
chemical injections,

Capital disembodied punishments

You do not have a body
You neither do nor enjoy

How cryptic would I have to be to get this off my chest
One score and yet it seems like yesterday it was the best
Most simple feeling that a girl could ever come to realize
A moment...

“You are immaculate,
touched by nothing.
What is there to renounce?
The mind is complex—let it go
Know the peace of dissolution”

“The universe arises from you like foam from the sea
Know yourself as One
Enter the peace of dissolution”

LOVE OF THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND

Lost was that gift none can ever replace,
that gift come from the Divine,
a love in the subconscious mind.
Angels wept for joy, for my love and I,
for what we were and had...

     Anger, depression, stress 
and fear, is a sinking ship 
drowning in the ocean of life - 
     Nothing good can ever 
come from accepting the status 
quo -

When God writes the story, His poetry is like music
Filled with blessings, warm and honest – sincere as the love He grants
When God sends the promise, His light frees the spirit
Leaving the shadows with assurance...

Nothing is devised or divined in the Universe to forever be.
Nothing is held always in truth; nor ever wholly wrong.
So look to those who find in life, wonder, beauty, and song.

Foolish Men:
There's always room for...

Janice’s Looks in the Mirror

Like a pendulum from an orange clockwork

The agent high above on raucous prayers

She hung high and dry suspended in drought


Resembling a shot of liquid poppies injected

The heroine succumbed in Noah’s wet...

We wanted to make a heavenly cake
But needed angelic ingredients
That were as far out of reach as can be
So we thought of other expedients

Like the famed store of unusual foods
Though it wasn’t around the corner
But...

Oh fallen star of Bethlehem, your established moment shines,
upon canvas of harsh intent, descendent of heavenly design?

A mighty angel’s leading light to those befallen, pleasure-bent?
Are gleaming eyes  masking spites or, our demands, aspiring content?

Looking...

Pendelum to see the unsee able bug…

Driven mad inside your head
Mites a dancing in your bed 
Toss it out also the pillow
Slept in tent wind was chilly
Tropical fowl mites so minute
Can’t really see them, not...

A burst of white light
gamma rays,  overbearing
a flash of brilliance
burns through to my soul
everything is like hell
the world starts to melt
in the blink of an eye 
just the cold blackness 
of night
 
I don't...

(Verse 1)
Well, I remember back in school, a song we'd all uphold,
"America, America," we'd sing it, hearts so bold.
Oh, beautiful for heroes proved in battles fought and won,

My Katie was here for a while and then gone.
Your face brings her face to mind.
Gazing at deep pools of innocence, I see
a loveliness usually hard to find.
Yet, time, I do need, so as not...

The Valise

The brief case has edges and mystery surrounds it
Accompanied by men on the periphery of law disordered
Perhaps the economy there is equal to Greece and Spain combined
Fiduciary responsibilities and pride at stake
If the case...

And may you be not drunk with wine
But filled with the spirit as God divined

As humans we've all have had a little drink or two
That's not a bad thing as long as you don't overdo

Transaurius

Divined from a thousand novellas
On the cusp of hallucination
Somewhere between the monastery and the circus.........

Devoid of any specious goodness
Deficient in any and all pragma
Having escaped from several weddings
One if by name, two if by shame

Resonant...
