Stuck and Out of Stock

my heart was broken in the rain 
while being pulled underwater
by overcast vibrations via
sky blue seduction

i carry a black umbrella
for personal therapy and 
wear a multicolored raincoat
and galoshes in order to 
intentionally fool myself into
believing that i am actually safe

thoughts of her are merciless
avalanches merging with boulders
of commonplace frigidity

i laugh to keep from crying
i cry to keep from dying
i die the avoid the goodbye-ing
as i take my last breath, the alarm goes off and i wake up sighing

....and alas, my blood again flows slowly like a constipated turtle....

The Scent of Karma Is Knocking On My Door

the scent of karma is knocking on my door
an envelope written in an ink of sloppy hope for chance
what died in december has become faded by february
what wilted in winter is trying saturate in summer

i once saw you as fresh and festive
now i see you as blah and bland
what descended in december has now become fateful by february
what waned in winter is trying to simulate in summer

the smell in reciprocation is melting with rounded roof of my foundation
a note written in a lead of illegible wishes for opportunity
what desimated in december has become fodder in february
what wandered in winter is trying to serenade in summer

the influence of you was once rich in nutrients
now the simple issuance of you is now rotting in replusiveness
the humidity of you used to cool the all of my senses
now the frigidity of you only suffocates the fondest memories of what once was

Numerosity Nutcase In Notable Nothingness

cold as ice with the heater on
the aspirin causes me to bruise
like murky water mirages on a ceiling of used stars, 
i become lost in thought as the scent of you makes me float on air
i believe that i am immersed in the confetti convention of my makeshift reemergence
icicles form on the tiny tips of my mustache
every breath that i take burns from the consumption of your irresistible image
one false stroke southbound and it is suddenly summertime
the dunes where many memories were made has dissolved into a sandstorm diary of misty remains
every current upcoming morning stings like disposable razors of surefire frigidity
my phrase called 'talk' are run-on simple sentence jumping over rusted hurdles of shame and regret
hot as hellfire with the window fan on
the pradaxa causes my blood to be just thin enough....to cut the heater on again

I Don't Understand

I don't understand it
And I never understood it

How vehement disdain can beat in the chest
And how vitriol can dance in the mind with unrest

The cold, blank stares that quickly turn to a fake smile when I turn and our eyes meet
Too late, that crooked smile can't disguise the dark, desolate eyes that bitterly speak

Yes. They speak to me in ways I can no longer ignore
Their frigidity penetrates my warm heart; my heart feels, so it knows how they abhor

Why? But how could this be the reality?
When I thought we were loving friends and family

Reality, what a painful and unwelcome truth to live
And all because love is what I wanted to receive and give

I never understood it
And never will I understand it

Premium Member Beyond the Breakers

In shallow waters, I look out to sea.
Small waves are lapping, giving me a sting 
upon my legs with their frigidity.
My body, with my thoughts, is wandering
as I wade farther, ever farther out.
Beyond the breakers, I would love to go.
Could anybody even hear me shout
if I were caught inside an undertow?
A splash of violet on twilight’s sky
reminds me I must stay nearby the shore!
Deep feelings surge like waves. I want to cry.
How beautiful it is, yet I want more!
Vast ocean, like my dreams, is out of reach.
I turn away and wade back to my beach.

Flashback Icy Cold

3am
i am up and out
a few days after an ice storm
a few days after my Mother's car was repossessed
walking the three hours to work
near the woods
i hear the rustling
i am being watched
a dead deer startles me
light
darkness
darkness 
light
crickets
stranger sounds
i regret every thought before the important ones
now my legs are heavy
i am now wishing that i called a taxi
my money is limited, and i think of caroline
i think about my broken heart
i think about a brand new start
i am sweating frigidity beams
that breeze at my back stings
i thought i was too good for this happening
i thought i was way above this type of struggle
now i am the one not laughing
my bills have been on time ever since
a little after 6am
i am dragging my behind
i find the strength deep within myself to prepare mentally
i got eight long and physical hours to do
i lock up my pain like a strategic version of constipation
nobody knows the internal clown crying tears of woe
thoughts of loss
thoughts of debt
thoughts of my useless need to feel
thoughts of the mistakes and the bad resulting decisions
thoughts of a genius type of time machine
i sweat
i work
i make somebody else rich
i clock out
i think about the walk to work
i decide....without hesitation....to call a taxi
i Learn....
i Grow....

Premium Member The Fifth Season

Someday soon
a season that is very harsh
will overtake us -
be it in the summer
(when the lack of rainfall
and autumn's chill are obliterated
way past the fall,
leaving mouths parched and bodies sweltering
beneath an unrelenting sun)
or whether it be in winter and beyond that season -
(when fierce frigidity worsens
and below zero temperatures
have people freezing
in their very own homes),
this fifth season will come upon
all people of the world.

Many will wonder . . .
what does it mean?
Those in the know
will be prepared, not just physically,
but spiritually, emotionally and mentally as well.
Prepare yourselves, good people
who understand my meaning.
Be prepared and stand not in fear.

I Thank God For You Simple and Plain

you make me break free
you see the good in me

you challenge my method of man
you soften the cinder block of my plan

you warm the frigidity of my soul
you loosen the reigns of my control

you show me the newest familiar art
you give me lovin' that is truly off every chart

you taught me about the treasured island of love
you taught me how to take off the protective glove

you gave me a reason to love and to live
you showed me the meaning to share and to give

you mapped out the better ways in which to go
you pointed me in the right directions to help me to truly grow

you picked me up when i was down, and with all your strength you carried me
you showed me that i really matter....the day you agreed and married me

Passion never spent, a touch of diaphanous breeze embraces me, as your sinew envelops my heart, like the caress of a Mother for her newborn.  Whisper your songs to my soul.  From childhood, I heard your call.

whispers
on gentle winds
two hearts

Safety, sentinel strong; earth child’s embrace, soft of wisp and bold of face.  My timeless sage in unyielding watch; a trusted guardian, decades old; timeworn teacher from my youth.  I revisit your embrace, like a cloak of security for my tortured soul.

leaves
rustling in a breeze
wisdom bestowed

Arthritic limbs and digits ache from the frigidity of endless seasons and I sit beneath you for comfort from my suffering; forgive my insolence, elder one.  My heart bleeds for you, my friend.  Though lightning’s seared your digits black, you remain vigilant against the raging tempests which disrupt our earthly lives.

gnarled branches
reveal a life story
perseverance

2022 Polar Vortex Across Wide Band of North America

2022 Polar Vortex - Across Wide Band Of North America

Power outage here within 
mine happy hunting grounds 
(as well the ghosts of Lenni Lenape),
viz Perkiomen Valley, Pennsylvania
December twenty third 
two thousand twenty two wrought
(lasting greater part of twelve hours)
impossible mission to keep warm

generating body heat
necessity courtesy three dog night,
sure as I'm sitting here
nevertheless found yours truly
yearning for global warming
while dentures chattered 
a mile a minute then jumped 
out me mouth 

and scrabbled, scrambled 
and scratched along floor
leaving corpse like body abed 
stiff as a board
dead cold analogous, 
when rigor mortis
grips lovely bones 
immune to brutal cold.
  
Ordinarily, the weather
considered non trees
son us, a neutral subject on par
with non nose 
wrinkling odoriferous cheese
usually ranks as minor distraction,
without whether yours truly agrees
or not, except 
during balmy temperatures,
an unavoidable tease,

whereat sub zero degrees,
whether Centigrade or Fahrenheit
demands human sacrifice
(me anima knocking knees),
no negotiating with Ole Man Winter,
he requests (lest 
he continue deep freeze
maelstrom until the end of time),
nothing 'cept a healthy seas
sunned *****sapien to appease

his insatiable appetite
froze to the core,
when all body functions cease,
thus until onset of frostbite disease
transformed me into a human popsicle
obliging surrender of self,
no matter I always minded "p's"
and "q's", and adhered
to selfless decrees
not until that moment - this me's

lee sad excuse e'en for missing link,
said personal radar of this primate
suddenly went haywire madly wheeze
zing, as if giant hand (some
harried styled swiftly tailored
paw) did squeeze
traumatizing, suffocating, mangling
constricting, asphyxiating... sensation
(surprised muss elf, and all my enemies,
hence survived death as a breeze)

when similar to Socrates
ill fate found him downing hemlock,
necessitated, I reluctantly quaffed antifreeze
as preservative, plus 
out of necessity to survive
being clobbered, buffeted,
assaulted...finally please
zing lee melting titanic iceberg
more bearable on par with a sneeze
than compared to frigidity 
of writer's block.
