Long Individualist Poems

Today August 29th, 2021 sluggishness dogs yours truly

Forecasting to thunderous applause
fast as greased lightning draws
upon futuristic atmospheric gewgaws
hot air emanates out these slackened jaws
spluttering courtesy indentured maws
armed with four footed tall paws
gesticulations resembling horizontal seesaws....

Searching exhaustively for the truth in everything one is taught by others.

The wheels spin, turn generate; electricity
A well-oiled machine or perplexed finery called the human mind
Irrelevant, an idea has sprouted like seasonal plants coming to life
Gone again, the sun has...

- Defined in different ways 
In different countries and lifestyles,
Valley vs Mountain, Settled vs Nomadic
Or in modern America, City vs Country -
With their two opposing attitudes,
“Let us tell you what...

I take love to every place I go 
I have the blood of my ancestors

In the historical archives, many trails have led to
The making of a legend, those born with the pioneer spirit
Of individuality, bred deeply within their soul.
Such was this man we called, Mr. President, Theodore Roosevelt.
A cowboy...

Absurdity, chaos, 
strife:
The poet chooses 
virtuous reality.

Sisyphus, a 
titanic wave of metamorphosis, waiting, salted nausea:
The thinker roughed by sand 
a solitary tree in a barren desert 
defies absurdity

by seeking meaning in the absurd.

Authenticity, 
vision, conformity,...

Central air conditioning quickly
found this creature comfort acclimated,
defies, contradicts, bumps uglies...
up against rugged individualist
I meekly profess to idealize

 The bard, the muse, the low versifier,
 each the times bemoan;
 stressed by compassion's grasp,
 ingrained word sown life disowns;

That stands proudly on windswept wild rugged moor
Emotional deep as an ocean
As flirtatious and fragile as a butterfly
That graces a simmers day.
Her voice as sweet as the robin...

I have to be understanding
For everyone... everyone for their problems
Everyone with endless pleasing
Is there really someone who’ll listen?

Everyone only drives to what suits them
Every other thing to make do... never an effort
Forever doing what never...

Silence

Try, try to comment!
You know how you would feel.
If hundreds read your poetry,
And forgot there is a human 
Behind the pen.

You put your heart on paper
And your're passed by like 
a cold breeze.
I've seen great poetry here.
Shocked...

    a 'RUGged individualist'
  Don't be surprised if he

Wrinkled, worn, and weather-beaten
one old hat sits a loft a dusty shelf.
A witness to individual history,
a vision of days gone by
of both good and bad times,
a garment of many memories.

Like a King's crown,
the hat once...

The evil green monster consumes the conscience of mankind.
More lethal than the worst drug on the market.
Greed creates ravenous souls, 
incapable of gratification.
Lustful endeavors with unsuccessful aspirations.
Physical nirvana is irretrievable.
 
Perpetual descent of morals and...
