Long Entraps Poems

Wine tears
Flowing through the contours of cheeks
To reach these valleys residing in heart
Listen
Let the echo jump into this abyss
Until it reverberates like a suicidal cry
And breaks like a rope 
Adamant on giving second chance to...

I Imagine

I am ashamed that I don't have the courage to approach you
Although I crave your conversation
Feelings of nervousness arrest me
I imagine how wonderful it must be to hear you speak my name
Oh how I...

Be it known as convenience food, junk food or munchies;
whether spicy, melt-in-your-mouth soft, or crunchy,
food, inglorious food, seduces with ease
and ensnares with the emptiest of calories.

Disguised as a comfort food comes macaroni
with creamy Alfredo and...

~The Healer, I lay…Meditating, 
The Shaman’s path is inward and up, up, from the bed up, up, my astral body rises.	
		
Silence, surrounds …
Looking down I see myself in a pit of covers 
my astral self...

At dawn the bay bed glows peachy yellow.
The waters above blue-green and gleaming. 
Further out a grey shroud of ripples entraps the yachts
with lace nets en-snaring a flock of hulls.
Yet farther out still, the sea...

Stay calm my beating heart for you will enter the vastness of the void
Consumed by a blackened bestial bliss that the demons have deployed

Time is elastic.....time is plastic
why carry it around tied to the wrist?
Old  theories so conventional...life is fantastic
then why check your phones as if you can't resist?


Like tall trees fleeting by the window of a...

‘Krasue’

A woman’s head with viscera hanging down from her neck.
She paralyzes like ice-cold lightning.

Where will you be tonight when the moon is shut?
Woman hater, where will you be
when the womb of your soul is shut...

The Diamond in the rough has been lost in the masses of panicked flesh
He looks through the eyes of the unnoticed,
He thinks with the questioning of his being,
He only looks to escape the day

The flame at the end of the way guides us
We’re in twos being careful as not to
Find ourselves outside of this treacherous
Path that we usually walk on, our blues

The walkway doesn’t seem this bad at...

Red 

Red - the colour of birth,
Of the crimson cloak 
Shrouding the joyous mirth,
And of the fragile feet 
 Untouched  by this sordid earth.

Red -The colour of romance,
Of ruby roses and paper hearts
Wherefore love...

I reside in those hazel eyes
which display emotional smile, 
let the words evade coz if you sigh
this purest talk will subside.
I request you, never speak the words
your eyes convey it better!

My cold palm stays ensconced...

Utter Silence.

You stare at the page wondering where it all went wrong;

Was it you?
No, that can’t be right…

But then if it wasn't you then you wouldn't be here at this moment.
You wouldn't be here in...

Rapturous Rose Realities’ Of Time


The heart follows magnetic murmurs of love’s crust
Where facilitative fantasy and raucous reality mingle
The gods of mayhem frantically  frolic as desires lust
Thru echoes that etch illicit illusions as bodies kindle

Betrayal devastates your trusting heart,
severing the bonds of love from the start.
And depression slowly entraps your soul;
for disparaging lies exact their toll.

Chameleon clouds change to match your mood
by releasing tears, sad emotions brewed.
And at the...

Aquamarine pools lie in light
searing surges of periwinkle
How does one describe the depths
of the soul piercing me 
and sending me to tears
gazing at the azure i am lost 
in the fury and serenity

July day


A heaviness entraps with the folding of the clouds
Paleness, thunderous, symmetrical and curved lines.
Stare into the stillness escaping the shroud
Look for the glimmer it is there bending entwined

Monitor the evolving motions changing
The nimiety of...

Damn this isle of mine...
solitary awkwardness surrounds
  stifles, and strangles, and estranges
    deranges, debases, encases, entraps
      ...singing this song lonely crazy

Damn this isle of mine...
coast eroding...

Board fence entraps three Angus cows
who would much rather go
out and about to their content
than hear from freedom's crow.

Corralled within their space so small
constrained by pride-filled squawk
no grass of green, no grounds to graze
so here...

Softly we drown through the gathering whiteness,
we float in splendor on ripples of calm.
Gentleness drawn from the lingering brightness,
shadows anoint us with whispering balms.

Softly, oh so softly, the angels are singing,
the star beams are winging...

Bathing in the Nectars of Love

Let your love fall now that I may wallow
Let the tears drip of your inner essence
Entranced by the nectar that I swallow
As I may engulf and taste your presence

Let your...
