Long Grimes Poems

“Frequency” 

we are separated 
from the others
by a thin membrane

electromagnetic

we are receptors
unignited ununited
only tuned into our own

frequency

existing to be lit
the fuses touching
reaching delicately 

that which we do 
and do not see, 
believe

answers embedded
in tablets read...

“The Apocrypha of Familiars” 

Wings hover 
light luminescent
revelling sprites dark pearls
Corvidae shades
of a family 

highly functioning
dysfunctional plural
morphing unobserved
perceived non-unique 
spiralling into shape

more black and grey
than white spills 
from their eyes
light from their shining 
hidden away

"New Gods" 

in those days
at the end of humanity
the few witnesses
remaining

observed new gods
angels, being born 
the singularity 
walked like Templars

through them
reigning over 
the few witnesses
remaining

Heaven watched on,
the detached separatists 
observed the birth pains 
of new...

Gay Rights are not Civil Rights
grabs my Yahoo facetime
fast-paced news rhyme

Civil Rights are not just Gay Rights
on my administrative time
bounces back a Left WhiteHouse reprise
that Civil Rights
include Gay Rights
as a necessary subset,
but not multiculturally sufficient...

“Sanitized for Your Own Protection”



non bis in idem 
“untrue”, she considered
the letter was passed 
between steel lines
vertical 
and read
“you’re not born again
until you are dead”
signed 
“Sanitized for Your Own Protection”


Invisible, the cuts in a heart.

Can i ever forget that you 
ever existed in my heart, 
Knowing the pain it caused 
me deep down my heart.
Each time i think of how it 
all got to this very point, 
Only helps...

The Ides of March

Spun spells pummel our Earth ... as a Sun scanned absence swallow,
vacuumed blues taxes light once deemed eternal ... plus righteousness,
escapism from existence ... edges evacuation,

FINALLY

Multi-emotions/ coming and going
It's been awhile since/ I sat down with pen and paper
It's not that I/ have nothing to say
It's the multi- emotions/ flowing in my head/ while my heart ache

Don't know /where to...

Kylie had a diving accident, 
In her friend’s swimming pool, 
In which she broke her neck, 
And so was sped to hospital. 

Tragically, all the doctors, staff, 
Thought she was really drunk, 
Because she still...

In time arrow’s one way course the winds of change blow,  
wafting from the fading end to an unknown another new,
the thrust of transformation they get from the power 
the spurt of  history...

"When Heaven Opened Up"



And when Heaven opened up
There, the dragon finally approached;
St George embraced Her Truth

The mother waiting for an apology
that never came, withdrew Her sword
Her heart gone all Light, full and golden,

is seen to...

“Dark Train”



minds 
speaking 
in lost tongues

shadows 
standing 
on the platform

lower vibration 
passes 
The Stations

dark train 
waiting for 
abandonation

“unrest is in the soul
we don’t move our bodies
anymore”…

Buddy Grimes

Sticking up for myself
had always been a sticky thing.

High school drafting class
Mr. Knobloch, white shirt, black tie
Marine haircut, lantern jaw,
smell of Hi-Karate,
back when teachers ruled.

Like a general inspecting his troops. 
Walking to each table,...

"Welcome to the Opera" 

when the rains came
they came in great torrents
like Sophia tears of grief

a drowned world 
waiting trepedatiously
for some kind reprieve

humanity on its knees

Black Friday is hovering over the wet alleys of Paris
Scratching its nails against the brick walls, holding in grimes
With his every breath, dies a red tulip on the pregnant terrace
Lovers shiver in their empty rooms,...

THE WAIT OF WAR (The Creed)


I cannot do I cannot speak,
 all I can do is think
And if I speak I’ll nowhere get, 
and this I much regret.

In search for peace of soul and mind

Whoa mommy 
Oh where's daddy?
Am i the only son?
I guess he became A ghost
After conserving me, 
Destined to be in the dark
Formulated obstacles and schedules.
And my guardian a widow!
Family life nothing but hard love,
Its tough...

It falls with grace.
Metallic bawls hail the strength of zinc roofs.
At the mercy of the thatch,
Drops drip from needle points of skeletal
Palm fronds.
Particles of rain descend on thresholds
Among dewed terrains.
The petrichor befriends the atmosphere,
Caressing limpid...

Gladly, I greet the gristmill guard:
…..“God is good!”*

Governed am I by this goal in the granary:
…“Grind the golden grains gaily!”

Gallantly, I am gripped with grace-greatness:
…“Garner gems of generosity!”
 
Geared am I to grasp by grueling...

From the lone journey you can’t get away
With the irate strangers on crowded rides
You would hear surely someone within say
It's time for you to take on the world wide.

On your climb of the steep hill...

Stranded on the road again
With a pack of cigarette and jar of wine 
And a snoozed up box and a leaked tank
In a cold-desert known as end of the world
My heart scampers for a soul...
