Discrimination
by Michael R. Burch
The meter I had sought to find, perplexed,
was ripped from books of "verse" that read like prose.
I found it in sheet music, in long rows
of hologramic CDs, in sad wrecks
of long-forgotten...

Stimulus Checkup Visited Mine Local Gastrointestinal Economy
Stimulus check(up), visited mine local gastro-intestinal economy
Around high noon

served as amazing grace saving boon.
Once activated - impossible mission

Dark Matter Matters
Dark matter seems to be
What isn’t there to be seen
In between
What we see.
They dub it dark since you cannot detect it
Nor can they inspect it
With telescopy.
Yet, while it can’t be descried
It cannot be denied
For equations...

Manifest Dual-Destiny
When life enjoys our full inhale,
breathing in-formation,
Then dying purges through breathing out,
exhaling excarnation,
recessively oriented toward last breath,
precessively convexing (B. Fuller) back in Dia-Memory toward next breath
as first breath of each eternal moment;
reverse regeneration advent.
These two,...

Destiny Knock
Once upon eternity I saw a mystery unfold, an enigma cloaked in a riddle that couldn't be foreshadowed, ever more superb than the dawn's pinkish gold. The meaning of beauty taken to a blissful new...

Ennui Sets In
"Ennui Sets In”
Whenever pen is placed
Between purloined phalanges,
When my mind unfolds and tears along the seams,
I know it’s time to move my thoughts,
Through the underground;
That dark crusty void
Of dreary dreams diminished,
Where loose hell raisers floss...

Conversations With Time
Three thousand ginger bread cookies
On a purple path to shade
Twisted Time Diagonally
Elusively Disfiguring Reality

Blue was Happy
Happy was Sneezy
And the other Six dwarves
never showed
They didn't...

What Am I?
I am story,
Unwritten,
Unpredictable,
And taking unexpected twists and turns in copious directions.
I can be anything––ambiguous, dark, enigmatic, complex or blithe, loving, gregarious and
simple.
I stand alone, yet I am strong.
I am multifaceted,
I exhibit many different...

Hallucinatory Prayers
Fallen upon knees in ashes of pipe dreamer’s infatuation
chimera's collective stardust reigning through macrocosms,
world spins counterclockwise unrealistically bound hiatus
stained glass mirrors fracture in rhetorical opposition,
earthly beings condensed to mere commonplace residue
threadbare allegiances written on...

This is the time I need
Unexpected as always as faithful
Always fading away, never to keep
As always as only an instant to be cool
I give to time an unwelcome me
And I tell to time that this...

The Quest For Wisdom
Where does wisdom reside?
Where does understanding hide?
Not in the land of living souls,
Nor depths of seas, where vastness rolls.
Hidden from eyes, from all living things,
Even birds in the sky, it elusively clings.
Destruction and Death have...

Inherent Temperament
Don't be so tortured, passion.
Don't be so metal rimmed in servitude
to all that's over the top and brimming with enigma's breath
Don't be the pump of blood adrenaline
on all the days one might have called
the moon...

Slippin' Slowly
Dying in bits,
Pieces each day...
No matter what I try,
I don't know what to say...
"Reality" is a concept,
I find hard to believe,
Is there more to it?
Or do I self-deceive??
Slippin' slowly
Into another world,
Mists of time and place,
Confuse...

Autumn Birds In Sky Thunder
The sky ironed out n da' morning divine
On a November day cold
Celestial rainbows born of peeping sunshine
Cloud dreams rush past unrolled
Under the bare leafless trees
Masqueraded hard to see

NEXT QUEET
10-18-2015 by jr Thornton
“Did you mean all those?
All the ones built to hurt.”
Is there form, plan, or purpose?
To those devices
To the bridge connecting
Was it intention to make sure it has burnt?
Maliciously never-ending
Devoid of way...

In the Rage of Reality
Slowly it bubbled and seethed
rolling around my psyche
leaving magenta trails of rage
that were slick to the switch
I traveled a thousand paths
and read a million books,
elusively 'it' remained veiled

Self
I have an identity... But I doubt it’s me.
Cobbled together from bits and bobs,
A congregation of smiles and nods,
And relatives laughing and joking at odds
With a suspect reflection that hints to be
New. Vocal tones picked...
