Long Idealised Poems

In a small village in the green valleys of the Peak District, Sarah gave birth to a son, after a decade of trying for a child with her husband, Peter B Perfekt.  It was...

"The Will to Survive" 

It was a peaceful time
back then in the dreams
that were once 
our prepossessing future.

sands of time 
dragged under our bare feet 
while the crystal clean warm ocean
of life that once was,...

Finding the plot

Of lost innocence
engrained in untold memories

The silenced absence 
in past present unspoken
stories well hidden
and therefore evoking
my past and my future
not mine and mine

Quite a mind-field
mines bombs blazing
artillery burning houses

My antecedent shelter of
generational tapestry
knotted...

Yet my soul senses the passion n’ desire of your heart was composed in the language of love 
unto lust that I could never poetically impart, still I know the flame burns with pleasure n’...

"POMPEII"



Her name was Pompeii
and I her mother,
loving her beyond measure,
took great angst, my heart bursting
from the betrayal - 
she, taking several lovers
basking in the underworld
where men are fickle
leaving unfinished poems
on walls shaking like loins
buried deep...

Once upon a time...a female aquaintance asked me if I could write a piece that 
represented a fairytale, idealised-type view of romance from a female 
perspective. (Hey, look, it's not the weirdest thing I've ever...

Love's vibes sneered at my sunken face
And bid me to hear, booming from the
Calling clouds, that what I had idealised about
Is in fact nothing else other than figments
Of my own imagination!

I breathed in my anguish
While...

To be so big with the world at our fingertips
To be so small when the world cannot hear
What can be the right words for departing lips?
When the wrong words can only induce fear

Most times I...

I expected you to walk away,
You walked towards
The forgiveness visible in your eyes
Not knowing the extent of my error
I fell apart; you held me.

We departed, silence never ensuing
Hope was flickering, its sparks ablaze
Our futures were...

The day I die is when I see the light
my body lit on my pyre 

my ashes one with stardust again
into the wind it blows away 

and bones belonging to rocks and river
nothing to fear...

The blind have led the blind 
too long, a glint of kerosene 
sparked a forest fire, razing 
wheat fields to the ground. 
Corn that burst the soil 
hit a drought that parched the fruit,

UNPERPLEXED
voyages beyond
  to places
of merging
 recusant & reimagined
more tempting
    than acknowledged
transformed
   to  a constant
so steadfast

 in a clandestine
shelter
   fascination
doggedly in awe
 this unique
capacity
    captivates
this sensual
idealised
  in a spectacular
citadel
   of idealised
uncompromising
modes
 of thought

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making...

East Jesus




Assemblage and mixed-media arts,
imagine a world without a waste,
Salvation mountains, acrylic colourful carts,
Sculptures and installations put with taste,

Self assessment of the deep inside,
Freedom of expressions for all sarcasm,
Thoughts brighten up to everyone's pride, 
Epitomising...

Love is unlike the game of chess, 
as time moves on it matters less, 
in absence, fonder grows the heart 
of someone else less far apart. 

The pressure fades upon the will, 
and like a...

SITUATIONS
abandoned
in
disquiet
 intrusions
happening

awareness
paused
in
   isolated

 waves
of
polite
whispering
unpacked

  released
&
streamed

the
hassle
  interrupted
by
seasoned
calm
as rehearsed




SURFACES
idealised
simplified

the
melancholy
lament

  the
irreverent
twisted
& curled
rippled
disconnected
yet
discovered
scattered
in
silent
embrace
of the
invisible
stillness
