Long Emblazon Poems

NOT   JUST   ANY   SUNSET

This lunar sunset was what he’d most miss  -
They always said death was like this : 
Slo-mo and black-and-white
Like an old movie trite.
It had happened...

Deliberately inching its way toward break of day,
The morning sun begins to emblazon the barley field.
Relaxing and watching the orb find its way,
The lady of the house waits for night to yield.
Like every morning, she...

The wonders of the world,

The clouds barrel into the pools of blue, crashing into golden sunlight streaks piercing through the sky,
A canvas of colour full of shades you cannot clarify,
As it floats by just above...

{For Mareena}
   On the bank of precipice, i stand
   Appealing to impotent gale;
   Not to nudge the dosing hurricane awake,
   Let the aborting breaking wave lull and...

It's pure excitement, on the edge
To know what I have, what I do - is admired
Creating from insight into pigment
Repeating, surrounding myself, you
My friend
This is all, it is
I'm bold, emblazon myself
Watched over they go through...

First draft - I may tweak and tidy up once the words have floated around a bit.

Inspired by Van Gogh's Night Cafe (1888).
A painting of an all night cafe at 12:15am. Frequented by prostitutes, the...

On a wisp of wattle
that cradled in the fig,
a dreaming began
as sleep draped veils
to nurture a gleam into 
dazed eyes,
as mantles of moonbeam
wreath temples
I fell to,


A gathering cluster
that saturated all reality,


a sculptor with tool
set about...

Promises sweet promises of the melancholy 

Swaying too and fro back and forth aboard a rocking chair 

In tandem and in tune to the rhythm of the wind blowing through the chimes

From the front porch...

Living The Nightmare
                    by Odin Roark

Awake in a nightmare
He leaves scratches
Atop the licorice ribbon
His winding street
Through...

Teardrops born from
inflamed elated eyes.
Fetuses of euphoria
slips and slide down
thy cheeks for they
are genuine touch
that emblazon the
trail upon the abyss
of thy bosoms bare.
Come o thee, thy
desirous flames
and quench the
ardor of my thirst
that wanes in an
ancient...

We do not despise 
What God gave us 
We do not dislike 
Our countless flaws
We whom wonder hastily 
Clinching to life after life
Hanging on with no purposes
Just the desired selfishness
To be alive
Claiming to be depressed
Claiming...

I think we all love kisses, like flowers love the sun.
They can be meaningful, deep and scandalous or fun.

You might briefly, sneakily, steal a kiss,
you can blow a kiss or condone a kiss,
emblazon every girl...

When the heart beats in pain
The poet comes to life
His words seem to rain
As tears flows sharp as knife
The raging storm complements his strife
Destroys all the limit
The poet with pain survive
Only then true pearls of...

I do not like to see my face floating
At the foot of a ewer,
nor in drops of water, nor in the glassy eye
of a slaughtered goat.

I am beautiful, but water and cloudless gems
distort, they are...

From pine-scented forests, past boulders and streams,
To clear lakes encircled by murals and dreams
Where bright clouds emblazon a warm azure sky,
A trail through the mountains is one I must try.

When bluebells stop blooming and nighttime...

To touch your face when our hearts meet
Is like a bible verse, it bears much fruit
The honesty inside your core, so sweet
No one else can bear proximity but truth


To kiss the eyes when warm spring...

I see the enchantment
dazzling light
coming through a drop of dew
hanging on a spider web
I hear the whispering
of chanting spells
right behind the flowering arches 
I smell the fragrant air
blend in rays of dawning sun
I touch the...

When the sun gently kisses horizon
 Bouncing and bubbling with firey red cheeks
Signals  morn on memory  emblazon
While sunlight dances, my love soft lips seeks

Aroma of coffee wafts on morn's air
As the dove's quiet...

A memory of yellow blooms lives in the heart;
A smile.
Creamy gold dawn hails a propitious start;
Dreamt awhile.
Late last night, the soon ember of today;
Stars twinkled.
Now sublime Mother Nature in exotic array;
And brooks tinkle.
All nature is...

Oh lamps, you subdue as much as you emblazon
This room - here - to contain vulgarity 
Until new light cleanses of offence
The hour late for light, but early for darkness
Emitted from these walls and floors...

Autumn fire rich glimmer hues of amber  

Unbidden, but welcomed what it covers  
         
Tinder ablaze of golden hue colours     ...

Thinking of you I’m painting of love
Ascribing endearing brushstrokes
Ambivalent of my reach to inform
As I adumbrate upon soul’s canvas

Come build this portrait with me
Emblazon those empty spaces
Color them boldly as you please
Embolden contours of your...

Sketch the sunset leaving today behind,
sinking in the footsteps of yesterday.
And feel the ripple of all life combined,
empty your thoughts; take all but love away.

Emblazon upon your mind a blue sky
gilded by the golden hue...

Cascading dreams
Over seas and oceans
Rampaging screams
Running over crustaceans

Surging waves unremitting
Hot winds escalating
Blue and clear waters converge
Stirred and bubbled with rage

Under the blue dingy skies
Teardrop of the weak cries
Raindrop falling with surprise
Drizzled hundreds of miles

Thunder and...
