Annihilated By a Poet

Annihilated by a Poet who uses the Extreme Metaphorical Weapons for diabolical Destruction.
Pulverized by the Flow Of It, a Beam that's Historical, Deafens your motor skills so you are no longer able to articulate and correctly Function.
My mastery is Malevolent, my Intentions become Clear as I Recite my words, while whispering Incantations Directly into your Ear.
I cast onto thee a Remnant, words Mentions sinisterly Fear, I'll Ignite mysteries of Damnations Correctly and immensely Clear.
As so the Horrors of the Abhorrent Consumes every Thought, every Sensation Becomes horrifying and Utterly Unbearable.
Covered in Sores, Torrents Entombs this Plot, the Invasion Benumbs adorning Stuttering that you find absolutely Terrible.

Premium Member Shirley I Am Part Two

releasing me - of minutes, hours, days - of being bored,
as age creeps into my bed, and what is left, is in my head
- providing nourishment for my soul – my spirit being fed
by looking glass images, images that slip through the crack

in my day dreams, my nightmares as my brain, I rack
for images, memories, experiences - that lay dormant in a stack
upon stacks - waiting to escape the boarded up shack
that has been the villages claim to justify its existence.

The grounds, the foundations, reasons to take a stance
and say yes, yes there where days when I knew romance
and as ever the fool, no one around to kick me in the pants
as all has become history, – fourteen thousand pages – turn a leaf

and you will find that this one’s life is far to empty, far to brief.
In it – between the covers of seventy-eight – can there be any relief 
from all that has been laid before you ?, can there be belief ?,
in what is before your eyes, as you look into what is laid before

you, as I reach in, grab at, touch that slow closing door 
with hope that it will be possible to get a glimpse of more
before my soul, my spirit, my essence takes wing, begins to soar
beyond this plane, all the pain I have known before.

 In here – these lines – I feel the loss.
Upon this stone – know – I see no moss,
for on here, I offer no direction,
just many hours of histories reflection.

Empty- I feel in this alone place.
Emptiness - I see in this aged drooping face.
Where is ?, that I might seek to go ?,
to gain wisdom, to learn what I do not know

of a world of spirit, of soul, of a fine mind.
It seems to me, little hope to find
- among humanity – the true essence of woman kind
as she entombs all- such waste – leaving all behind.

Oh !, if only the fickle hand of fate
could lay upon these drooping shoulders, in these arms, a mate
that in ones darkest hours, a soft glowing light, shine
upon this old soul and in the light of day be mine

that would share on a world , not to compare 
with anything like my world of despair.
The hour has passed, the rest are in decline.
The minutes that remain – with stain, are mine.

There is little I see, that will make life fine,
for the ephemeral time left to me, little will shine
through as I look into the black, storm cloud ahead
that rage, stage battles, assassinate instead
me

Premium Member Fear Stalks My Dreams

I'm lost in an unforgiving jungle!
The trail I'm following is sporadic and confusing
and as the undergrowth closes in, it's suffocating;
making it nearly impossible to breathe.
The high humidity leaves me drenched in sweat:
the heat is unbearable, my every muscle screams.
Panic is spreading!
Chills creep up my spine,
and I taste fear's bitter dregs on my tongue:
as its pungent odor wafts from every pore.
Like a mantra, I keep repeating a desperate prayer: 
"Please, God, save me."
The ground under my feet feels spongy,
and I hear the rustle of hidden terrors in the leaf debris.
Whatever possessed me to attempt this hike?
As darkness descends, the dense canopy entombs me. 
My face is a scarlet mask of scratches: 
and acid tears burn my cheeks!
The pounding beat of my heart is overpowering:
and I collapse into a sobbing heap.
Fear stalks my dreams in an exhaustive sleep;
unsure if I'll ever awaken:
or even wish to.

Avast Congregation Fomenting Immediate Legislation

young people all across this country 
     (The United States Of America), 
     this middle aged papa doth adore
stand arm against 
     pervasive arms that didst bore

un-necessary slain school students 
     robbing society of core
as unwitting targets, 
     sans vibrant youths 
     forever snatched to enter door

of homes, where loving 
     kith and kin no longer behold
a cherished biological product 
     lowered six feet under into cold
terra firmae, where Mother Earth 

     entombs the fruits 
     (ripened to their prime), now...en fold
did taken down by random bullets, which gold
din precious person murdered, 
     where maniacal gunman didst hold

down the trigger, which high powered weapon 
     loosed asper indiscriminate aim 
mass destruction 
     of sons and/or daughters killed fired, 
     whence slug didst claim 

another abhorrent statistic 
     from easy access snatching a darling dame
or handsome lad, while soundless horror 
     many a countenance 
     doth non verbally exclaim

the profound sadness, 
     now murdered offspring 
     solely enshrined within picture frame 
where sorry lost life haint no board game 

yet, random dice throw 
     courtesy of second amendment 
     fuels American's passion 
     asper right to bear arms, particularly re: cent  
spate of wanton mounting killed 

     (within storied halls of academia) 
     spurred many well organized national event
     reached a tipping point, 
     where lock, stock and barrel deadly age gent

brought together this day 
     (March 24 th, 2018), an immense crowd
staged across America within major metropolitan areas 
     (from sea to shining sea) with actions loud
her than words, 

     suffusing this older dada to feel proud
unsure if thine eldest progeny joined 
     the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 
swell organized protests, which wowed!

Premium Member Canvas Of Green

Bleeding behind a crimson-colored cloud,
a scarlet sun tints Dusk; cerise and pink.
And burgundy, entombs Sol like a shroud,
while a dying sun slowly starts to sink
into an abyss of ebony ink:
and the last vestiges of daylight shrink.

Luna, donning a gilded golden crown,
ascends into a vast, star-studded sky.
And diamonds and rubies adorn Her gown
when Mercury, Mars, and Venus rise: high
above the flashing lights of a firefly,
and the shifting shadows scurrying by.

Dawn spills color, inking black-sable skies;
vermillion, purple, indigo, and blue.
And like molten gold, Sol begins to rise;
reflecting pastel shades of every hue
into crystal droplets of morning dew:
while once more, a brand-new day starts anew.

And spun spider webs add a silver sheen:
beautifying Nature's canvas of green.

Autumn: Emaciated Garden

Autumn shears my weary garden
Yet industrious summer doth pardon
Summer's residual, dusts with frothy mist
My annual saplings fruitful labors desist
Late season gratuities doth slight
Yet graciously freezes rancid blight
My well-manicured plot
Frozen mounds do clot
Branching tendrils secede
Anon, bracketing weeds recede
Each ballasting furrow
Into the ground doth burrow
All the burgeoning blooms
With callous frost entombs
Leaves that did with fertile juices flow
Now lie on shriveled vines sallow
The green, neon afterglow
With a tarnishing brown doth bestow
My ripening fruit once pungent and mellow
With a rotting stench doth bellow

Premium Member Mother Teresa

Swarms of flies infest teary eyes,
the untouchables have no worth.
And live and die in the gutters,
shunned by society since birth.

The sick occupy the shadows,
where death entombs these castaways.
For faceless crowds take no notice,
how the lowest-caste end their days.
 
A woman with a giant heart
felt India's poor were in pain.
And brought them medicine and hope
to shelter them from heat and rain.

She found joy in loving the poor
and shared that joy with all she met.
And lectured that these souls of God,
more than prayers, need our time and sweat.

Mother Teresa begged the rich,
let God touch others through you.
And this angel became a Saint,
to those whose dreams she helped come true.

Premium Member Tundra of the Soul

I am the tundra barren cold and numb
A frozen wasteland where no light can reach
Between these poles, my insatiate self-succumbs.

In icy silence where no whimpers humb
My thoughts like glaciers grind, erode, and breach
I am the tundra, barren, cold, and numb.

The Amazon within once vital thrumb
Of life and hope now withers out of reach
Between these poles my insatiate self-succumbs.

Anxiety a howling blizzard's sumb
Entombs me deep a creature bleached of speech.
I am the tundra, barren, cold, and numb.

Depression creeps permafrost of my slumb
While echoes of lost joy my soul beseech
Between these poles, my insatiate self-succumbs.

Yet in this waste, where all seems overcome
A seed of strength cracks ice defies the leech
I am the tundra, barren, cold, and numb.
Between these poles, my insatiate self-succumbs.

Rapture At My Gate

This sudden urge I've come to feel is 
rapture at my gate
Not more on sudden than is subtle but 
weary of this spate
Thoughts of dreams, realities obscene 
and too depraved
Quite more on nightmares than dwelt 
dreams  yet dark and highly craved

Consumes my mind on vulture plains 
devouring to ensnare
Despising law and hearts thereof 
perpetuating air
Loosed in my twisted reasoning twisted 
as in psycho strange
To understand this feeling  you need feel 
as do the crazed. 

Constituting heart is a melody of nature 
but as I hear it playing is my symphony in 
gesture 
As the organ sounds flows the flood of 
tainted scarlet.
Leaving all but dense perfume and a taste 
of cupcake velvet. 

This wretched place I know is my bound 
while I am bleeding
Not much bleeding as in breathing but 
nonetheless demeaning
This occupation begs by night, entombs  
me and  enslaves  
Preoccupying binding shadows, darkness 
is my subtle crave

Premium Member Night Vision

In my nightly tryst upon my bed
in dreams cupids arrow takes its flight
with the chilling visions in my head
memories long ago with in the night
 
Of nights where I dwell in marbled halls
and ancient ornate rugs bedeck the floors
and tapestries do cover all the walls
and molding gilded gold upon her doors
 
Upon the stairs in running I take flight
and fear is chiseled upon my mortal bones
men have entered with weapons in the night
and behind I hear the screams and groans
 
Or nights I float through homes of glass
and beneath I watch the waters silvery flows
overhead the clouds of copper pass
and in the greenhouse fruit aplenty grows
 
Or dwell I in a home thats not my own
and out step I to see the vanishing sun
a maleviolent cloud proceeds to its dome
and clothed in black becomes our earthly home
 
Or wearing robes of white I cast my crown
laying prostrate with my face to ground
knowing I am not worthy of the gown
or the love within that I have found
 
In vision I see the man I love
and yet the book of truth unwrapped
though his fit is like a glove
I run as always I'm feeling strapped
 
within the dreams is cast our loves and fears
and the toil of thought we daily task
entombs the memories of our years
and the wine within it's earthly flask
