Long Elongates Poems

Fate decreed sexting/texting while married abominable

Therefore karma caught up to me big time
and delivered yours truly sent to purgatory

Tracfone got permanently disabled
and all the data

From the beeginning


A heart beeats…
A heart beeats again…
A heart beeats…and then another.
A heart beeats…
And then another
And then another
And then another,
Until the rhythm of the hearts sounds like thunder!
Welcome to life inside the cocoon…


Eyes open. ...

And threading along the leaf of life, these methods seem a sinister symphony.
Open borders, and immigration comes like an underground current,
On the paths...

Early morning, slightly subdued, a drawn out yawn reflecting my mood, 

slope to the kettle, body distorted by its metallic curves, amuse myself for a 
while, infusing with herbs, 

while my head changes shapes, prepare...

My shadow asks me to relate last night's dream
I say - No! I don't want to recall it
My shadow elongates longer and darker than
That of the pine tree which stands at 
The final turn of...

There are times, as often as not during autumns,
When leaves leave behind green souls, and fall
Wearing different colors, I remember my barber
And ask myself what more things, other than my grays,
Should I leave behind.
Boy, it's...

The limb elongates in the bodies flayed attempt at survival.
Internal struggle, intelligently struggling in the maintaining of oxygen in a Bold  yet desperate display. Feeble gravities
Lunging, Lurching behind from within where wheels turn till...

Look at my hands. 
Pristine at first glance but look a little longer. 
The pointer and middle on the right hand. 
The yellow hue comes from an addictive personality. 
Pan down to see a child...

The sun in all its golden glory
has risen with a new age
and a new chapter on a new page
of life about to unfold
secrets of a journey not foretold

We do not know what tomorrow has for...

The rubber band land,  short and long,
   thick and thin elastic stretch pull along;
it's pulled, it's pushed, poked and often touched,
it gives, it takes, it's prod and plucked,
   flicked back...

My "be aware" vision peered its head tonight

Poetry died a tired lonely death

And those damn poets caused the death of might

The carrion of poetry lay still with blood...

Windswept

Over sheet music, harmonious movement of sand.
Droplets of rain dance - time swooning on sea and on land.

Cupid’s arrows climb, descend strings of the violin.
Heartthrobs, side by side, in best dress, on seasonal spin.

Fingers up...

Death, I've seen your face before,
heard your knock on my son's door,
that time you came without forewarning,
the shock, the grief, the endless mourning.

This time I felt your hoof beats thunder,
dark horse tearing all asunder,
cold hand...

The catalyst of two faces, his and hers,
bookends with pleasure dais in between.
Faithfully compacted on canvas, concurs,
never turning ones back, remains clean.

Sharp brush of Chagall, floats lovers.
Their passion, a cloud in lala land, hovers.

Doom assails us here;
It consumes our today, 
It guzzles our tomorrow 
Belching what's left of us
With a rooted arrogance

Exchanging pleasure with pain!

Doom digs a malignant knife
Into the heart that holds life!
Heaven hides...

The events of yesteryears still look 
As if it was yesterday
You open you eyes, morning
You close and open, evening
Seconds are the slowest
Minutes are fast
Hours come and go...

Mr. Stretchy Cat elongates himself gladly
He rarely eats food, but he is depressed, sadly.
Unless he stretches out on a pillow of stripes.
That is when his mouth stops making up gripes.

When I see him stretched out,...

Seed dies to give birth to tree
Tree yields fruit, fruit carries seed
Seed - Tree - Fruit - Seed
Cycle consummates 
Nature legacy elongates 
Death at one stage 
introduces identical Life 
Keeping divine design intact 

Humans do...
