The Savannah Girl

The little girl unfurls her dreams,  
Bringing forth the visions within her.  
Yet the night cloaks her dreams,  
Blurring her vision.  

Home was not a place of bliss;  
The world felt like a bleeding star,  
Gradually losing its brightness with each drop.  
Each day brought its share of struggles, lack, and deprivation.  

Her father was a peasant farmer,  
Labouring to put food on the table.  
But what becomes of the skills that prepare a child for tomorrow's demands?  
He was later incapacitated,  
Yet he held on until he was called to the beyond.  

Her mother was a petty trader,  
Doing everything she could to help.  
Shattered by her husband’s death,  
She lived in the shadows,  
Where nothing worthwhile could bloom in the meadow.  

Still, the little girl unfurls her dreams,  
Though she was taken to a strange land.  
The visions inside her found light;  
Her aspirations reached great heights.

Still Time

Life's so abundant with misery,
nature's practicing metamorphosis,
generously tense and uptight, lifts
no lightness, steady with its frost.
Gray is the Sun, trenchant clouds,
rustles of trees reveal the night, 
entering but dispossessed. I hear
strange voices cry, shadows cross the path
close press us unaware, a silhouette
salutes the eye, its curtain drawn. 
Let there be darkness, darkness illuminating
darkness, we cannot aid or mitigate, ask
no beauty to intercede. This cramped moment
is not mine to give, though far apart from
worshiper's time, Spring's spirit. Still
is the time,  its folded garment by no motion
stirred, fabricated remnants fled to sky,
no thunder peels through the absence,
life was once so abundant, sustained
in open fortitude, spirit flowing, hopes flying,
the raindrops loitering like domes of pink and purple,
their buffet gone, fraught with pain, quicker than
breath indrawn. Spirit alone can regenerate a
safe haven, lessen the convolutions vast, 
lift up again hope's incapacitated body, reeling
under the torrent.

Premium Member Black Heart, So Cold

Black heart so cold, lonely, and empty
How can a black heart tell me he loves me?
When a black heart doesn’t love the one above thee
Please black heart, see the writing on the wall
Realize that it is I who catches you every time you fall
These words I whisper to you, come one come all
There is a fate worse than a black heart that is incapacitated
It’s the internal struggle quite underrated
And I know you hate it
When I speak of truths you should’ve already known
As a fetus in your mother’s womb until you’re grown
And then a carcass in your tomb
Love has to be given as well as shown
But if so then why is your black heart still alone and cold?
Look at your life and all of the things you’ve done
Have you ever tried to live right and give your life reason?
The sins you’ve committed are forgiven
Don’t ever forget it
Now you must answer to man 
And I know you regret it
But breaking laws in the sight of man
Is like having bad credit
To them you will always be the bad seed
You must give an account for every deed
Stop blaming your parents, the system, and society
Take responsibility because if the choice was left to me
I would never say two words to you
But I’m compelled to get through to you
I love you until my dying breath
So, while you’re away from me don’t stress
Do you know that God will carry you?
I will be most honored to marry you
But a black heart can’t be in my life
I refuse to be a black heart’s wife
My lips may turn black if I kiss you
So black heart, please make a change
Your life you must rearrange
If not, I won’t make it a priority
To elevate your mind with a love as strong as mine
In the core of your soul lies the truth of your issues
But you must let God take full control
Or else I will surely miss you

Premium Member Green Goblin

Green Goblin, Green Goblin, how terrible you are.
And only for a serum have you become a superstar.
A star of infamy and Spider-man’s worst foe,
spreading holy terror wherever that you go.

Aliases you have had, maybe up to five.
The third one, Dr. Bart, was not long alive.
As Norman, the original, you came back from the dead -
once again to fill our hero Spider-man with dread.

Norman’s son Harry used the serum too.
And Green Goblins many powers harry knew.
Superhuman strength and agility
and a genius too with regenerative ability.

Driven quite insane, you only wish to kill
and destroy all everywhere you’ve been.
“The five” incapacitated you, yet still
I bet we’ll be seeing you again and again.

Tired

I’m a man whose tired and worn
Empty and dead on my feet,
Petered out, played out, pooped and torn
Burn out, broke down and beat.
Drowsy, droopy, drooping drained
Dog tired, done in, done for,
Exasperated, enervated empty faint
Overtaxed, overworked and bored

Sick of, sleepy, spent and stale
Haggard, run down, all in
Consumed, collapsing, asleep, annoyed
Exhausted, bygone and barren
Ramshackle, rickety, run-down and frail
Bedraggled, broken-down and creaky
Threadbare, tottering, tired and used
Feeble, fragile and flimsy

Out of shape, out of gas,  done in and feeble
Gone to seed, soft,  incapacitated
Listless, washed out, weakened, on the ropes
Undermined, fatigued, prostrated.
Discontented, dissatisfied, tacky and dull
Jaded, glum and gloomy
Sick and tired, up to here, driveling, drab
Sated, down and weary
Befuddled, unsteady, wobbly and faint
Pallid, pale and lean
Stupefied, staggering, slaphappy, subdued
Oh damn I got to go pee.


Premium Member Growing Grace

I can already feel some gratitude
for not having  been,
being,
or ever becoming responsible
to heal everything

Casting WinWin solutions
and resolutions
in all fertile directions.

Like you,
I only get one vote.

Still, I do find some mortal hope
in one voice capacity
to mend some broken relationships,
WinLose and LoseLose
climates of relative
and complete
pathology.

I would unveil some wonder
as we cooperatively learn awesomeness
seeing 
and hearing
and feeling
and knowing
and embracing multicultural difference

Here with Now co-incident Occupiers
between gratitude sanctuaries of faith
and moments of compassionate hope

Green wisdom to not become incapacitated
by monoculturing differences:

By fear of ungrateful mortality,
of capital disassociation,
of ego-annihilation;

By anger occupying Now,
my own,
and patriarchy's,
and Earth's everyday living
at-risk of losing cooperative
organic integrity
through unhealthy collective dementia,
hysteria,
post-Victorian melancholia,
ecofeminist suppression,

Reacting against 2020 peaceful revolutions
for growing green grace,
one vote,
one voice,
in each HereNow Time.

Foreign Hitherto

Pushing cascades crest bastion, stomach lost
    Largesse spread wafts orange blossom bridal
    Bestows clouds let go to marshmallow moss
    Fearless flight crinoline crash vertical


    In gospel gothic deep chasm, drunk mink swims
    Stirring fate, bleeding tea leaves bewilder
    Leather gil quiver, loaded to the brim
    Goddess mink Milda, silk coat cylinder


    Poison spore auburn myrrh lassoo arrows
    Immune audine preened, unwitting Otto
    Seduced by sadist, dart sought embargo
    Incapacitated poderoso


    Discharged firearm, struck futile, fratenised
    Love liege embalms gun powder, satisfied

Premium Member Destitute Must Thrive

Contrary to the forlorn attitude,
Thrive for the bliss of solitude,
The vulnerable gets incapacitated,
Keep spark of optimism inside alive !

Helpless gets sturdy, will not mentally die,
Heaps of benevolence, keeps living a lie,
Struggles till the woes get precipitated,
Spark of hope always burns alive !

Languishing tribulations seem incumbent,
A muscular man declared impotent,
Munificent heart asthenic and debilitated,
Spark of hope still stays alive !

Miseries are vaporous, only if comprehend,
Toreador if be, will turn vilipend,
Embrace potvaliancy, rather remain paralysed,
Must keep spark of hope alive !

despondent deliverance

unfortunately I rouse,
incapacitated, fettered,
fuzzily sensitising to
my bedchamber, I ruminate
and periodically deem adequate.
eyes hanging with encumbrances,
engendering the plagued gaze, 
empty and dull of scintillation 
that flickered out lang syne, 
inadvertently blighting all 
who love me enough to meet it 
with sorrow and remorse. 

bitter utterances resound— 
sarcastic, playful, yet
it swipes at my skin, scarring,
each reverberation swells 
the ache, once dull, now palpitating, 
degrading my ability to exist. 
repugnance laces my features, 
sewn into the cavities and pits 
inside I can’t otherwise fill; 
dentition stained, a miasma 
of decay, tainting energy 
emptily pledged to sustenance.

my body a vinyl record
obscure, weakened, aimless,
and the community the stylus,
passing over me, yet somehow
boldly navigating my scratched shell,
incapable of realising
impairment is done to the core,
ignorant that the music,
even with perpetual
interrogations “are you okay?”
like a broken record,
erelong will stop playing.

diamond grazing integument
unravelling muscle, a dazzling show,
zenith of the symphony,
populace vocalising and jiving
over the sound of my wails,
misconstrued to entertainment
solely from my torment.
severed sinew gathers in
accruals of sanguine liquor.
unseamed as the music crackles,
fading to a somehow louder silence
upon the tragic epiphany
of my lacerated cadaver.

Matrix Purgatory

What if

Matter whether or not

You think you choose to digest the

Red Pill
Or
Blue Pill

1 and only 1 
Constant common thread 
remains in tact

Somewhere hidden flowing
deep inside the main frame

An encrypted Code does exist

Beyond the many Firewalls
protecting it

Supplementing the Matrix

That could bring it to it's knee's

And so expose the endless litany
of lie's used to subjugate the masses
into willing servitude

And we're to awaken enlightened
to so much fresh new information 
racing through your brain

You we're barely able to recollect
something as trivial as the simple
necessity of how important it is
to breathe

And that all this information your
brain is now trying to process

May possibly even kill you or turn 
your brain to mush 

And leave you in a vegetative
incapacitated state

Like you we're initially before

Only difference is that this may
be a far bitter pill to swallow

Being it's a toxic deadly mix of
1 part Red and other half Blue

And the side effects leave you in
a permanent comatose state 
of mind

To suffer the consequences of
whilst in purgatory
