In the manse market for a preowned spa house

Mine feeble efforts pale in comparison
to a kid scaling El Capitan

--Evil starts as germinated seeds,
noxious weeds of social infestation,
spreading and suffocating human diversity,
pushing all freedoms into extinction,
the loss of Liberty's creed,,
--Men-Women birth their offspring,
but raised by the State,
alienated offspring grow into bastards,
by design to this...

Infinite pitch black void zooms,
I vacillate to pitch headlong (head over heels)
where freedom looms
large (think) cosmic size grand canyon grooms
espouses, and cloisters unbridled wedded bliss
structured sound of silence booms.

Dawdling against inevitable fate

In my life, narrow margins matter
Opening my eyes wide
To better perspectives which don’t flatter
Dispensable pride riding on the tide 

Where populism portrays norms
To which I don’t subscribe
Despite unusual forms and storms
I ride although I can’t...

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

Opaque

Self-determination digs the fight, 
Between lovers, crevacies and urns, 
Sunken to the black scraping the rust, 
The syntax to velocity 27 epic tech bust.

Velodrome phoneticised tightness of gyte,
Forced gynaecology for terse, gut and creation,

Seasons of change carry no alleviation.
Struggle to keep order.
A being composed of two souls
one day, the other night,  
both fighting to ignite.
 
Born of the same mind,
Two, once peaceful sons
struggle to please a tainted...

When we were two kids,
fearful of heaven and hell,
my mother enjoyed to tell
kissing our laden eyelids: 
 
“The pathway to the Moon is covered by white roses,
waiting the keen grooms to pluck their true espouses,
amid...

I am stuck in a prison
	of inept indecision
		without a specific vision

I suffer from the stigma
	of this puzzling enigma

My mouth espouses words
	but their...
