Long Erudition Poems

Moods oscillate in cadences of peaks and valleys

Angst of redundancy seethes from within as lava
Anger is camouflaged with the cloak of reticence
Ardour suffocated...

Oh, these trees, arms reaching as they
      did then, but even wiser ... perhaps I as

Science is knowledge, magnificence pansophism! 
Extreme erudition of unmatched intellect, 
in all its compelling branches; 

The beautiful and dynamic achievement of flight. 
A kite flying with great height. 
A curveball thrown with might. 
Phenomenal "Aerodynamics"...

Arriving from unknown somewhere
He set up clinic in the market square
Declared he could cure any disease
Using herbal drugs of plants and trees
Townsfolk being credulous

In a cosmic world where marvels dwell,
There lies a well where truth does swell.
Under the surface of the cultural tide,
Dissemination of erudition, hence and wide.

Yet, amidst the waves, dishonesty lingers.

Follow your heart and capture pleasure and leisure
Follow your brain and nurture strain and pain beyond measure.

Ain't in a trance,
Nor experiencing delusions and phantasmagoria.
I live. I fight,
Fighting
Because the decision to be free

Yet, criticized with unsparing vigor,
Cruel and baseless calumnies.

The past is gone,
The future...

'Twas April Fourteenth, Seventy-Eight.
Lest any should repudiate

Autopilot tired
broken wings
sore in soaring flight
fluttering, down-spiral 
clouds streaming beyond fog

providing synthesized eruptions
cataclysmic spasms drop knowledge undetected by erudition

Strewn upon the floors are the shards of yesterdays mirror

Don’t denounce me when I weep
Soaking blows right, left and centre
From angled arrows that keep
Galumphing near my fort vying to enter

The crib the moon loathes
Which the venom sunshine can’t sear
While sadness bothers
To rain pain and...
