Post-Truth, the Mood of Time

If truth has its own thesis
That hardly needs emphasis.
If untruth's antithesis,
Post-truth's perhaps synthesis—
Untruth’s sis, and a miss so famous,
Year twenty sixteen’s pet amorphous!

If unstressed syllable is thesis,
The stressed one's known as arsis,
I need no stress, said thesis,
Untruth's usurped all the emphasis,
Her sis, the miss is much-crowned,
Post-truth pouts a visage frowned.

If truth a fulsome fact is,
And untruth though fictitious,
Still lives in relative ease,
And post-truth, a smarter miss,
And anglers' much prized a fish,
That might one day be a cherished dish.

We know, truth oft silent is
Faced with dogged emphasis
Of lie, who an ace sprinter is,
Faster anywhere reaches,
Where post-truth ready to greet,
Welcomes it in ways discreet.

Post truth may enjoy long lease
In this New Year in sure bliss,
It’d live a life of effort-less ease
Judging from how the mood is.
It fits the times like fine rhyme,
I’d say: post-truth be the mood of time.

The only hope for truth if hope there's:
A proven marathoner it is.

Hue Main Ease


Don't you think you ain't normal?
How money becomes thy moral
Rather than thy character and behavior
Which don't hold into wealth-- its savior
Unless conforming to standard of principles
Set cum societal logistics-- the principals

Oh this new age makes it formal
I see, that's how you've had such oral

Love is fictitious, few mirror can reflect its tension
Heart beats for love, I wonder how blood builds in it its mansion
Mighty name is life, treating death like friend 
Favor is of human on earth but only grace in heaven could commend
Watery ground beefing date, calling unto all; one by one 
How often we forget to ever wanting earthly fun!

Altar guides meeting with Thee for forever to get secured 
There, death's pain and agony will vanish and be cured

Of all sunrise I've seen, tipping point photographs chance 
But only in Eon lies a pure off probability assurance
Laugh wipes inner tears, voice changes its gear 
While smile only fake its look, trying to forget job undone so dear
Humility comes home... build for time been like foreigner 
Truly, its state of being is confidential but conditioner

Can there be hope that sells fortunes for free?
Except in game where luck via suffering is the referee.

Haunting Me

By night I write in silence,
like the quiet checkered board in the corner of my room
violently erupting my dimensional thoughts.
It haunts the hours I am awake,
through fake goggles of glory, you think you see me
creating fictitious measures of expectancy.
I pass you on the dirty streets,
behind the wheel of your material needs
you steal a glance,
and by chance you look the other way.
A loose thread curls beneath your sleeve
and you heave at the idea of imperfection,
like a cold stone dropped in a pond
a bond of nothing but a bottle of booze,
rings of empty energy ooze from you.
Reality’s clamor of modern life
echo through the corners of town,
nature’s volume turned down.
Like a clown you laugh in your big fancy shoes.
History has been painted on these pavements,
spilt out and absorbed by the years gone by.
Now shriveled up and dry you shy away,
from a connection that’s begging you to stay.
But you don’t look into my eyes
and you don’t see…
the marvels that journey through me.
A closed book hooked on gas and money,
green envy of collectibles
you clown, you think it's funny.
Why not walk without your shoes?
Open your eyes and look what is around you.
Feel the cracked ground beneath your feet
and look at the people in the street.

Sleepless Nights Vol Ii

This is just another tale from the 
crypt another one bites the dust I 
guess she didn't make the guest list, 
just another enigma, that's what she 
called me when she couldn't paint 
this picture but I say she should've 
just drunk from another pitcher, 
assumptions turns into to a failed 
attempt to someone who could 
decrypt ya thoughts actions 
emotions, and weeks later it still 
hasn't soaked in, so it seeps in threw 
the cracks of past feelings but I 
refuse to look back on my life but 
still I envision the ghost of my past, 
taking me back down memory lane, 
but I know better my present is a 
gift and my past is something I 
wouldn't exchange, no matter how it 
looks is that the reason I'm reading 
so many books, I guess I'm looking 
for the secrets that they hid, will I 
find out it was indeed the truth or 
another fictitious fib, so I open that 
door that door without hesitation 
knowing that if I expose the truth 
they might send me on my final 
destination, so it's do or die and my 
life has an expiration date on it 
anyway I understand I'm damned if 
I do, so hello to sleepless nights 
once more with no regrets as I 
expose the truth

Premium Member Dark Libertine

Tattered clobbered thoughts streaming to winged dusts,
spiral spasms tremble amid weary sounds.
The festal moods swing dreary interludes,
visions ache release with defloration--

throaty cries heightens the greedy man's lust.
He longs to possess the murmur of blood
from naked images throbbing desires,
it surges -- tinged to his cerebellum.

Dark libertine drained his desirous juice--
madness stings deep-- displayed to his ardor.
Boorish bashfulness etched into each itch
cracking unto his left to right onslaught.

Finitude fair Venus choked with disgust
as she wriggles, wriggles to free herself!
Her wriggles useless from black libertine...
Pristine Venus fallen-- now wanting death.

The Lake

In an evergreen forest 
Surrounded by a lake 
I owned a little cabin
Where my love I did take

Moss crept on the walls
Of the crudely built home
But in silent serenity 
We could be alone

She loved it more than I
That place beside the water
She wanted to stay forever and a day
Or whatever proved to be longer

Simple living
Minimal care
Clean country breathing 
In the pine scented air

The water rippled
And slowly swayed
During all hours
Of the night and the day

The woods teamed with life
And the trees filled with leaves
Birds fluttered along 
In the gently blowing breeze

We couldn’t escape 
This beauty astounding
We became one with the lake
Our hearts matched in their pounding 

Enamored were we
With our quiet possession
But this love that we had
Turned in to obsession 

Scared of the threat
Of having to leave
To go back to the world
Of death and disease 

We clung to the feeling 
Of everlasting bliss
Because while we were here 
We could never resist 

But late one evening 
As I sat by the fire and drank
My love, afraid of departing
Walked in to the lake and sank

I realized too soon
That I had to leave
And forget all about
This so called serene 

For it was not an earthly place
Yet not entirely fictitious 
Just outside of reality 
If you believe the superstitious 

That cabin by the lake
That my love knew so well
Called her soul to rest 
Was it Heaven or was it Hell?

I Dont Wanna Be Passive

awaiting interpersonal subsequent situation 
     aye tend to get ants
see when in the midst awaiting 
     said sub routine involving 

     outcome of circumstance
the parameter, perimeter, potentiometer, 
     et cetera extents 
sifts out the destructive sycophants 

     versus real boot not nacho 
     munching macho gents
thus ipso facto fur cher 
     pro bono, and hence
gaining kudos for fas innocence

     between defendant versus claim

whose maternal sermons

Geometry auditorium, 
     where the glitzy dazzling audience 
     flush with many a fan
gnat tics toward a particular couple

said open eyed spectators 
     focused glazed eyes and grand
huzzahs on a man or woman, 
     who took charge hand

After These Things

I ask myself do you really believe 
this, are you buying this. Only a fool 
asks no questions about what he's 
following, even Solomon in all his 
wisdom he still fell hard and 
shamed the name of God...looks like 
I'm following after my ancestry, I'm 
walking ass backwards I'm nothing 
more than a Christian atheist I'll 
admit it, so I try to dig myself out 
this bottomless pit because still at 
the end of this tunnel is forgiveness 
if I can repent this, I'm a train 
wreck. But sometimes you gotta go 
threw hell in order to be able to 
witness that Heaven isn't a fictitious 
place, sometimes you gotta go 
threw a little hell to show someone 
that after these things your sins too 
can be erased and God's grace 
hasn't left you stranded. I'm not 
right and it feels like everyone 
knows it, this heart I have isn't right 
it's been long overdue for me to 
dispose it, conviction leaves your 
heart & emotions exposed, but still 
after these things there's still hope. 
No matter what good deeds I do or 
how Holy I think I am I'm still not 
good enough, I came too far to give 
up now, time to refocus on the 
mission ahead, this flesh is 
destructive and man still needs that 
living water and daily bread

Deserted Train of Thought

A train siren screams in the desert
Impoverished by strangers' intentions on board
Desert winds howl at a fictitious moon
As my door is rattling with ghosts without names
I jump into the passing train with my restless mind
What if I can't grab the handles and fall into the Abyss?
... Coyotes will devour my heart;
its heaviness will become theirs for Life...
Perhaps that's why they travel in Packs - to ease the pain
of lonely heart punctured by their canines
I see myself at the foggy window of a passing train
"Take me with ME !!! "
I cry as my train disappears in the water-sky of a Mirage...

The Greatest Story

I often write some poetry, and I can fill a page
With some fictitious story that will hopefully engage

Your interest or your liking, but I know I never could
Create a made-up tale or find a true tale quite as good

As this—the most amazing tale that man has ever heard
The most astounding, great Good News, the true unchanging Word

Before creation there was Yah, His Son and Spirit too
They made all things we see around–the birds, the trees, and you

He made us and He loved us, even though He knew we’d fall
He knew we wouldn't listen and would not obey His call

So disobey we humans did; He banished us away
From Eden's lovely garden, and we went our sinful way

But Yehovah still loved us after we had gone astray
He sent His prophets and His Word to guide us in the way

He saved us from all captors and He fed us with His bread
But we would always scorn Him after we'd been freed and fed

So we continued sinning but His plan was far from done
Despite our wicked, sinful deeds He sent His only Son

To save and free from hell and death whoever trusts in Him
To bring from darkness into light—deliver us from sin

Though He’s the king—He made us all—He died upon that tree
For those who died, for those alive, and for those yet to be

He gave His life to bring us into unity with Him
To open up the gates of life so we can enter in

How can I tell how much He’s helped? He’s saved me; I’m His own
How can I list His boundless blessings? He will bring me home

How could I make a better story? What's more grand than this?
How could I live without my Savior? He’s my strength, my bliss

How could I tell what He has done or sing of all His praise?
His love’s beyond my mortal mind; I’ll praise Him all my days
