Dust To Dust

Dust From Dust 
 
Carve the stone that forms the jewel
From Cities dust to Countries rule 
Fake or genuine none shall tell
The integrity of fellow man

Beast to burden
Man so unkind
Loyalty so rare to find
Beneath the rubble of falling lives
The destructive weapon, the knowing lies

Before I cave, lose my belief
Before from the mountain top I leap
Into the gaping vast below
I seek reprieve from those I know

Tell me there are gem's to find
Salt of the earth
The staying kind

Don't let the minefield be owned to war
Bring back the good old days
Like we knew before

Feel Water from the eyes of God
A simple prayer, a knowing nod
Clothe the world in love and trust
Not clothes of a diamond's deathly dust

Premium Member From Dust To Dust

We live in a human body
when we consider all that it is
which is a remarkable specimen
it's a wonder there's nothing amiss

In the beginning, God made man
from the dust on this old earth
by speaking His word man came to be
so here you have world's original birth

For since God created all life
the human body continues on
comes from the womb till it dies
its span of life is 80 mostly till its gone

Think upon the human frame's works
all the blood cells going all around
the heart keeping everything going
be quiet for a moment, not hear a sound

At the end of life, all die
kept till God's judgment seat
one's history gone from dust to dust
missing one at your very street

(Love it or hate it, our bodies are an integral part of who we are so I've written this to give my thoughts on the amazing workings of our human bodies.)

Praying For a Quick Death

Quickly, 
Quickly, 
Quickly.

You spoke in search of light relief

And hearing your cries for Help

I cried myself to Sleep

On the rotten old couch upstairs 

While Mum Cradled you in your Marital Bed

I Prayed religiously 

Death come Quickly

To Shelter 

You from the Cancer Pain

A Milkshake Cocktail of Morphine 

To Aid Discomfort 

While thinking all the While

Show your Face God

Where is your Grace and Mercy 

When it comes to the Innocent 

I fear you have done not only my Family

But the entire World

A Discourtesy 

Ask anyone and they shall say

He was 1 of the Good One's 

Wouldn't hurt a Fly , Never told a Lie


And come December 28th 

Ashes to Ashes,  Dust to Dust

The Floor opened up the Gates of Hell

And ever since 

I Fall and Fall

Quicker,
Quicker,

Quickly 

A Pithy End 

My Father
My Friend
My Support 
My Sponsor 

Amen

We Are Worlds

"We are Worlds"



Internally eternal
in each of us
another world

Unknown 
and alien
supporting strange lifeforms 

hidden beneath our veils
watching silently
illuminating exotic ethereal lines

Connectors electric
touch each other 
another’s  world

reaching out instinctively
we regenerate ad infinitum 
Lux Vitae unfurls

too deep an equation
for shallow minds 
without fathoms

Oceans inside us
drown all our sorrows 
wash our uncertain shores

Inside us souls 
come and go rushing through
like hyperbolic comets pulsating 

Leaving footprints
in our grey matter, they are
translating white noise 
and black calculating too

We walk around
each other 
Our universes colliding

Inside us all our worlds
a million self-perpetuating questions 
we are identification unknown 

taste each our salt 
and each our earth
curiously inside us they watch 

our bodily world turn
kiss life for a little while
we mingle within the frail vessel

of skin and bones, 
inside we watch 
from our world

then to sleep within soil 
our essence is dispersed 
into the trees of life,
 
we quench their thirst
where leaves are veined 
sap questioning a whispering wind,
 
"What was our human’s worth?"

eventually our exterior burns
Ash to ash 
dust to dust 

We are scattered
through air falling on
feathers of freedom

Pieces of us 
fall into rivers
swallowed by other souls

like a time from 
The Dreaming
they are singing us in 

mouths open for sacrament
on the fleshy tongue that now grows
a luminescent pearl 

We are 
becoming 
new worlds

Internally eternal
in each of us
another world

We evolve
in slow revolutions
ecliptic, fields magnetised 

towards each other
Light and Dark matter
our Universes colliding

New Worlds
Soul full
eye to eye

Never Fall In Love Again

once again
i will never fall in love again
(i told myself)
once again
i will never fall in love again

i told myself i wont fall in love again
i tried to ignore the way he touch

trying to keep my heart locked
and not letting him win

i eventually let him in
and adored me with love(with love)
but i said

(i told myself)

ashes to ashes
dust to dust
i vowed to stay by your side
even when things are rough
you started to change
drinking booze and playing games
i cant take no more 
it's you i blame


you waste my love 
you waste my time
i packed my stuff
and said my last goodbye.......

once again
i will never fall in love again
(i told myself)
once again
i will never fall in love again

Surrender

Breaking free from the shackles that held you,
A demon created by lust
the desire for the taste of the body, to the death, ashes to ashes, dust to dust!
Your eyes show the wanting go further, on your knees as you beg me to touch,
too late to turn back fallen angel,
surrender to this sexual rush.
Your mouth seeks the drink that I offer, lips parted and anxious for more
as my finger trace outlines your body,
and you're desperate for me to explore.
This is no time for your innocence, nothing about you is pure,
cast aside this virginal whiteness, emerge - an erotic whore.
Feed on the fruit that I offer, drink from the cup I prepare
tonight temptation comes calling, lick your lips come to me if you dare!
Scream my name as you beg me for mercy,
nails dig deeper clawing your back, your neck is the point of my feasting
drawing blood as your skin starts to crack.
As I feed from your body surrender excited by hell's scorching touch,
there's no stopping us now fallen angel,
you want this just too much.
As your mouth acquires a liking, for the taste of my essence within,
you're a mortal now my fallen angel, welcome to the pleasures of sin!

I Am My Name

I am my name
If you remember my name, you have my attention
Pronounce it well, you have my trust
I am nothing but my name

My name is a certain point in time
They remember the time, they remember the weather
My name is that weather I will never remember
My name, a moment in time

I am my name
Inherited from lost loved ones, I never met them
They see them, when they see me
If I fail them, will they blame the name

Call my name, slang it, chant it, whisper it
Loud noise does not drown out my name on a roll call
All my senses heed the call of my name
I turn my head, raise my eyes, I’m diverted from my stride

My name, I will forever hold
Crossed out on short lists, I still keep it
Lost in the struggles, it emerges out of rubble 
My name is the only thing that remains, after dust to dust
Keep it and give your memories a frame to hold what’s past

How to Spell Beautiful

I am beautiful no matter how dirty I feel
There is beauty from ashes to ashes and dust to dust, and muddy water has never been so clear, wilting petals never so strong
Life is a journey and there you find the richness of breath
So, breath in and realize that although you feel like you are at the end of you it's only the beginning of the story entitled chapter two
Then breathe out and take another step forward because failure is impossible as long as you try
Don't beat yourself up for not living up to the standards of your perfect world
We will never be perfect in this world, so why is it something we focus on
You want to know something beautiful, beautiful is trying to be the best version of you today
Then as you naturally bloom growth will one day be further than you could ever imagine
Let patience run its course and stop trying to cook a three course meal in 30 minutes
Let patience run its course and it will be easier to adapt at the appropriate time and not after the fact
He is finally facing those facts, because it's harder to learn when you're always behind the 8 ball
Cinderella running to the ball, apple watch says 805pm at least I'm getting my steps in she optimistically chuckles as the dress ruffles and she shuffles forward in her sneakers
Chapter 1 is life, chapter 2 is lessons, chapter 3 learning, chapter 4 let go of the past, fear, and regret
Replant your flowers and this time water your mind with truth, inspiration, and goals
Let the heat of life move you forward and not kill your hope
We are meant to be challenged so make sure your feet aren't always up or in the same place as yesterday
Beautiful is today in this moment so remember that when you feel you can't escape far enough past the past
Let patience run its course and the past will take care of itself
Stop giving it wings on your flight
Beautiful, just because of the word
p.s. beautiful is spelt the way a rose blooms...

Three days to set the calming air,
To hedge clear bets on this affair.


Work crafts sure art as craftsmen show,
Attune clear start with pleasant flow.


Seek true essence of ample blooms,
Know a presence that fills these rooms.


Day by day shape a picture calm,
Expect sweet grapes to style wise psalm.


See the end game of works that fill,
Allow the same to offer thrills.


Hot humid air in heatwave storm,
A brand new flair can string new form.


Waltz with sure ease to reap delights,
Align new peace in ambient flight.


From hot to cold, the tale unfolds,
A special mould in message told.


End where things start with what you see,
A happy heart now let's things be.


The job is done by light of day,
Paintwork can pun a happy stay.


Strokes in tandem can say a lot,
Workday wisdom works mindful thought.


Start with the end in mind and heart,
Proceed to blend the precious art.


Wit knows fancy in dance and sway,
Work fills plenty in glad array.


All in due time, the final strokes,
Facts in sure chimes can breeze the yoke.


Dust to dust then can mellow strife,
Now you know when to dance with life.

Poets Escape
         by Odin Roark

How willing
This heart and mind
Absorbing pain's daily prose
Global flagellation becoming
Best sellers
Top Box-office
Google's lifeblood

Whether Syria's dismemberment
Washington's absurdity
Or Hollywood's Grand Guignol Follies
Exhausted passions and intelligence
Clutter synaptic duty
Excused as collateral damage

Everyday wars of fear
Slowly accelerate
This self-destructive countdown
Repeating Time's insidious cycle
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

While few escape
Some find refuge
In the manifestos of metaphor
Using echoes of cranial madness
Illusion's manic voice
Mumbling through the night
Arranging similes
This is like that
That is this

Until...

Dream's phosphoreal mirage
Becomes imagination's reality
Layered tapestry hanging firm
Mind's needlework in progress
Becoming woven experience
To shroud forever
Weakness's acquiescence

For what?
For whom?

Poets know not
They just are
