Premium Member Transmutation

Written: December 02, 2023

Quote "Without birth and death, and without the perpetual transmutation of all the forms of life, the world would be static, rhythm-less, undancing, mummified." Alan Watts

              ________________________________________

“we woke up early one morn, ego shorn
it felt as though we were in form reborn
nodes within stirred, boundaries blurred
our head and heart, with love concurred”

I deploy discursive divine depiction as a guide.
A gateway to Genesis, where it takes its side.
Unbridled and untamed, my voice may rise.
I pursued knowledge out of pure surprise.

Low-frequency vibes induce a shift in shape.
Scarcity leads to transmutation, of spare scape.
Alchemists transmute leads to sacred gold.
Metal sheds its genius luster in the kiln hold.

I waltz freely with doom in the gloom.
I inhale oxygen to marvel at life's bloom.
I endure steps yet disappear in the dream.
Structure is unaffected by the skill stream.
 
Love is my soul—my reason for existence.
Living in lavish love is a lifelong vow of diligence.
A mind, weaved with such insight, was so warm.
I flaunt my firm frame in this fabulous form.

When you are feeling opulent and egotistical.
Those who are dominant were miscible.  
Departure might induce an unfillable hole.
Descry a suitable way to purify your soul.

There are ecstatic and tragic days, love and hate.
No matter how tough we strive, this will be our fate.
Note how sporadic and fleeting life is; spot the stride.
Our days of tribulation bruised our noble pride!
 
Rather than succumbing to hatred and rage.
Turning negative into a rising trend of assuage
Let trust and troth tackle tricks and malicious
Such a restrained demeanor is truly auspicious.

Within, most consensus spans are wide.
It's all whim; scatter love and watch it glide.
Trust your scintilla—trek to the boundless sea.
We may all profit from sowing wisdom trees.

Conquered the most-dubbed landmass on Earth.
And yearning to discover raw levels of worth!
Death, then delirious with deceit, drove his life.
A wicked beast embedded himself in strife!

A susurrus sparkle to the shimmering love.
Enhances adieu strut below the moon above.
Breeze says, "Love on, my dear, and dance."
Across the trees, a gentle man's glance.

A Winter Dream

On a cold winter’s night
We sit close together
By a fire, warm and snug
Almost sleeping, certainly dreaming

A hand-knit blanket is over us
It keeps us warm
As we watch the snow fall
On the back patio of our home

We stay for a while longer
Talking without worrying
No cares in the world
We’re free, living our life

Our lives are combined
They are now one
We share this life
In the pleasantness of our home

It’s not the house that makes it home
But you my dear
This home is beautiful because you’re here
And we discuss this by gentle flames

After a while, we’ll head off to bed
I’ll actually be able to sleep
Because you’ll be there beside me
So we slip into bed and into a dream

There’s a fire in the bedroom too
Keeping us warm on this night
This beautiful, snowy night
We drift off into a shared dream

You’re there beside me
And you’re there in my dream
I’m in yours as well
And when we wake, there you are

Oh, waking is so magical
Sunlight…early, pure sunlight
Pours into our room
It gradually wakens us

My eyes begin to open
The first thing I see is your face
Shining beautifully in the light
And we lay there together for a moment

After that moment
With your frame in my arms
We decide to get up
Slip on our slippers

Then we step outside
Into the cold morning air
To see the sun rising
Over the mountains around our home

It’s a beautiful sight
But after just a short time
We decide it’s too frigid
And step back inside

You go back to our room
To spend time with God
And today I decided
To read while I prepare the morning meal

A strange combination perhaps
But, ah, what better way to start the day
Than with God and with food?
Than reading and cooking?

Then breakfast is ready
I call to our room
You finished a moment before
And you sit at the table

I bring over our meals
And we start to eat
We enjoy the food
As we talk about our devotions

After the food is finished
We read together
And spend time in prayer
With God and each other

With the morning well underway
I contemplate the plan for the day
Perhaps we’ll go sledding
Or go pick out a puppy

I don’t know what we’ll do
I’m just happy to spend time with you
So we spend the day doing whatever
And later, we slip into a dream once again

Homeward Bound

Homeward Bound


Land of mango and avocado 
Sweet , mild and refreshing 
Cassava bread with tea, coffee and hot cocoa 

Fresh meaty young coconut 
It’s water crisp and refreshing
 
Glazed peanut, cashew and coconut for a quick snack or dessert 
Spaghetti with herring or hot dog for breakfast 

Large tart grapefruit topped with sugar crystals and eaten with a metal spoon

Killed a butterfly 
Folded it in half 
Pressed against its wings 
It fell apart 

Grandma chased me with a bowl of medicine 
A liquified leafy concussion 
To clean my insides out 
Stepped on a ball of thorn 
My foot slowed me down 
And the neighborhood kids caught me for grandma
Was stung by a bee in the belly button

Crossed rivers barefoot 
Watched black crab crawl across a small body of water 
And tiny fish swam in a little pond 
Skinny and gray were they 

My cousins and I rolled handkerchiefs into figures 

We got in trouble together, too
A long walk on foot
Left us late for school 
Once late , on our knees we were preyed Hot and sticky was our whip 
Lashed were our backs
At bath time , mama saw my back 
red  and black with strikes 
Left furious ,
Angry and out of breath ,she advised my teacher and school masters
That I am but a child 
And not an animal in the wild 

Another time, I was struck by a bull on my way to school
A big, black bull  tied to a tree , loosened itself free and charged at me
With its horns it grabbed my frail little frame in between mama and great uncle
I was tossed 
I opened my eyes and was at the hospital 
My great uncle rode a motorcycle and dined with me and grandma 
He gave me a large slice of avocado  to eat with my plantain and sauce 

The blacked out city 
 Was lost in the dark
On the countryside moon is streetlight 
On roof tops made of aluminum 
Boys flew kites
Plastic bags and spare tree branches
they combined
 
Spun tops are made with lime and pick

A bucket of rain to bathe 
A black hole in the ground 
For feces 
Clothes washed in the river
Line dried outside the house 
Some bathe 
Some bring donkey to graze 
Its dung fall in between the waves 

Some to wash their tresses
Like my godmother did to mine

Premium Member Paper World

Everything that's real passes me by
Cause I live on a sheet of paper
I could leave it anytime I want
Convincing myself there's always later

Writing about lives I've never lived
Scares me how I act beyond my age
As I'm fading into the background
Becoming a character on a page

In a fibrous bed
Is where I lay my head
The ink stains my clothes
Watch as I, decompose

I'm too young to think this way
I should live and feel everyday
Always goes back to the pen with me
Real life doesn't phase me and honestly
At times I prefer my paper world
Falling in love with artificial girls
Words can't break your heart, their with you from the start
Ink flows in my veins, to me it's just a game
I'm too young to think this way
Am I far too gone to be saved?

Just one marvelous frame in this world
My beauty is like the autumn leaves
Pretty to see, don't you know I'm dead?
Enshrouded by a blanket of make belief

Instead of trains I played with pencils
Literature in my box of toys
At 6 I held my books in wonder
Desire to intrigue, though I'm just a boy

I tire of real things
Pen holds my puppet strings
I have had enough
Poetry is my love

I'm too young to think this way
I should live and feel everyday
Always goes back to the pen with me
It's where I go to breathe and honestly
At times I prefer my paper world
Falling in love with artificial girls
Words can't break your heart, their with you from the start
Ink flows in my veins, to me it's just a game
I'm too young to think this way
Am I far too gone to be saved?

With enormous zeal
I burn oil by the desk
Drifting, fading, I
Become a child less and less

It's how I escape
This cold and earthly shell
Is it really me
You're talking to, can you tell?

Would you remember me like a good book?
At times I wish you would
See me as a work of art, a wondrous look
I really don't think you could

Instead of a box beneath the ground
I'm a mere mortal striving to astound
Put me on a shelf and put me in your head
Bits and pieces of me to look at when I'm dead

Would you remember me like a good book?
At times I wish you would...

Shogun Collab Bill's Side Part 5 With Richard Pickett -Taz- Poetry

.After Bill left the station, he made a pit stop down to the local diner, parked his car and 
hurried in to get some much needed chow.
     “ What’s  up stranger? Haven’t seen your lanky frame in this fine dining establishment in 
forever” she said  saracastically  as she poured him a cup of old   left over breakfast 
coffee.  “Made this pot special just for you Bill, after I saw you crossing the street to come 
in here.”
     “Sure you did, Nette. I can tell by the grounds floating on top. I missed you too, he 
grinned. 
     “I take it you had a good trip…welcome back cowboy .You want the usual steak and 
eggs?” She didn’t wait for his answer as she wrote something on the order pad, spun around 
and hollered out to the kitchen. “Dead cow..rare and chicken innards Charlie!” 
     “You always make that sound so appetizing, Nette.” She smiled her welcome at him and 
headed off to grab another order. ” I’m comin’, I’m comin’, I ain’t your mother, ya know! 
Bill chowed down, left a tip and drove to the police horse stables to see his patrol partner. 
When he got there Gail, one of the stable grooms had Redneck on the cross ties lavishing 
him with attention that could only be given by someone who was dedicated to these trusty 
warm bloods. Redneck pricked his ears forward and whinnied a greeting to Bill before  Gail 
knew he was there.
    “Hello Redneck ole buddy! What would you do without Gail spoiling the heck out of you 
here?”   Bill scrubbed his forelock and patted his chest while thanking Gail for taking care of 
him while Bill was away.
    “ No problem Bill. Glad to do it. You know that. He’s my buddy too you know. Glad to see 
you’re  back.” They exchanged pleasantries and Bill headed back to his apartment to get a 
some much needed rest.
     The next morning found Bill refreshed and chomping at the bit to get the scoop on  
Brick’s  mystery murder  case. He decided to give Brick a call early before he headed out. (

The Window

An unexpected storm happened last fall
I put a window in to keep out the snow and wind
For the comfort you brought me, I embraced you
You and the peace I didn’t know I needed became my obsession 

This is wrong

You were so constant I got used to it 
Winter brings a new set of challenges 
When it’s light outside I look right through you 
But when it’s dark, you show my reflection, and I’m forced to acknowledge you

This is wrong

Cracked, but you still serve a purpose 
Now even the light comes with a scarred view
And deservedly you fracture my reflection-
Since I had been angry enough to disfigure you in the first place 

This is wrong 

Vulnerability left no room for a final mistake
Hopes of being whole again replaced by “I wish we’d never met”
Maybe there’s no need for you anymore since it’s spring 
Glass litters the lawn outside, and I still cut myself when I walk there

This is wrong

An open frame in my wall where the window was 
The presence of invasive cold does less to freeze me than does your absence
Instead of the snow, rain introduces itself 
And now instead of a reflection I can see the dark that you sheltered me from

This is wrong

As summer approaches I realize
I didn’t have a room with a wall for you
I didn’t even have a house or a foundation 
So why was I ever looking for a window in the first place?

This was wrong

But for just a moment before it shattered, there was a defiant “I love you”
Where we were so broken but so desperate to prove that broken is beautiful 
The beautiful promise of “no more breaking promises”
Then a final broken promise for us to realize broken is ugly

This is so wrong 

I was 16 when I helped frame a house
From the concrete to the roof
We put the windows in last
I hope understanding that will be my concrete

And when fall comes around again I’ll be ready

New Lease

Communication break down for several months 
who knows why i am unsure i don't question the trials of others its not meant 
for me to know. I take the still frame in my mind of this insight time. Destiny 
and life crossed our path of communication once again all i can do is praise the 
fact. You bring something different this round your baggage you have 
dropped. A goal in mind with a can do attitude what else could be more 
pleasing to some one looking into innerworkings like me. Something to pay 
attention to and keep breathe into this new opportunity life has threw at me. 
Maybe i am a wishful thinker maybe i am a dreamer i am unsure really maybe i 
am just to blind to the big picture. All one can do is hope and have faith of a 
better tomorrow. One must work in the lighting to rest in the sunshine. Life 
seems to be a on going storm of emotion and feeling. As we work to better 
our selfs . I some times wonder am i fighting the monster of life or the monster 
inside of myself. Indifferently i would just like to resolve my demon.  I am a 
strong individual i have to be with the person i am the people who surround me 
the weaker souls in need of a hand while there hanging on the edge of the cliff 
of petie ******** to them its the catastrophic demise of the world. Still i offer 
wonder who or what do i need to complete the puzzle i ponder. I am nothing 
as i use to be,i am a different creature a different cult in my personality  i have 
over come many bumps in the road been the saving grace in many stories,still i 
have a desire for a reason a desire to begin a new chapter in life a chapter of 
me and my story and my beginning  living knowing myself and knowing where i 
belong. So the anthem speaks tonight i shall keep walking that line. In hopes 
one day i will know why.

Premium Member Dubious

I beheld your frame in my doubting eyes
there was no way for me to 
explain this to by brain.
How could my trembling hands want to
follow the trail,and explore your definition.

If I know you are taboo.
What damage could be done in my adoration.
Not put here I think, for my souls appreciation
I cannot humble myself enough to walk away 

If my lust defiles you -I am certain 
I cannot look away,
captured in the gleam of my eye,
It's not for me to decide
God our creator already 
has said that lust is a sin 
that starts in the minds eye. 

I behold a sight that draws 
me like a magnet to metal.
Shall I blame this on the devil?
Are my feelings evil?
My resources are feeble. 
Signals received under complicated
conditions. 
Waiting for your response to free me.

If I lose my soul -I will be lost forever 
if there is such a thing
as the great beyond -- I will be doomed. 
If I be true to my now,
as natural as it may seem.
Who will call the foul ?
I am waiting on your response to free me.

The virus of the unrighteous 
has spread to the future..
We have become what we once hated
infuriated, that what's inside me is despised.
I have never supt of your essence.
Though I be penalized-God 
who knows the score-When he
indicts me with this crime...
God who controls my emotions
my thoughts-Leaves this one to my charge.
fraught I am in this conflict-Shall I remain lost.?
Waiting on your response.

If we kiss now, 
I cannot touch you in the future-
One day it won't matter about
Color age or respective gender.
We can love completely
without guilt or shame-
without the threat of 
torture in a treacherous flame
One day love and lust will be the same.
It will all be fine, until then 
I will wait with dubious mind.

Premium Member The Dance of Waves

Written: October 11, 2023  
As I Watch The Waves Crash        Sponsored by: Anoucheka Gangabissoon   
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As I wait with anxiousness on the edge, I gaze.
As the capacious waves roll onto the shore to graze.
A fanciful caterwaul that is truly a show to behold
The wave of anticipation, the rising to withhold

Akin to a monitor of art, I scrutinize with reflection.
As billows rise, so do wavelets in diffraction.
Fluctuation of the sea, an imperious dance,
Panache and languid undulation—an idyllic prance

With each rippling perm and undulation,
Swell slyly spawns a spellbinding  sensation 
A seiche of emotions, a dance so divine,
As the curling waves rise and intertwine.

Lackadaisical they seem, in their languid flow,
Yet, their rippling aura is obvious—zeal on show,
With each rise and fall, their chimera is felt.
A clout of nature, a symphony to be dealt
 
Waves glisten and shine under sunlight beams.
Their corpulent dance is a kaleidoscope of gleams.
The desultory scene is painted in ultraviolet shades.
As they race toward the sky—in egregious glade,

Their sheer life flows and surges with every beat.
Their knack for clearing the way left me discrete.
The wave dance is both aesthetic and daring.
A narrative is hidden, deflective, and bearing.
 
As the seas beat up against the jagged rocks.
It fluctuates with a chorus of cursive flocks.
A pulse occurs that ripples through the air.
A sleek waltz lures me in and leaves me there.
 
As I spot waves spinning—I feel idyllic at peace.
A concise reprieve—an aura of release
Froths flex and frame in a fellifluous flow.
Borough bears betwixt breakers beat and blow.
