Premium Member Beneath the mask of day, fragments of people smile

Beneath the mask of day, fragments of people smile,
Wrapped in a silence shattered into things unsaid,
And you will look without seeing into their fractured cleavage
Unless they themselves lend you their shadowed glasses.
There's a fine irony in the play of light and darkness,
A silent wish to tell the world that "good" is alien to them,
That their nights are sharp illusions, endless processions of shadows,
But smiles that mean "happiness" seem to them only hollow echoes.
They want you to discern the abyss between words, to read in the pause between heartbeats,
To reject with them the space that separates, to decipher the whispers behind the curtain of speech.
But there are eclipses too deep in each, unwritten in their own night,
And so, similar forces drift apart, repel, by their identical nature.
You don't know someone's labyrinth, you try to fool yourself that you have the key,
That you carry on a map every secret corridor of your neighbor.
But there are corners that only they enter, their own inviolable sanctuaries,
It is terrible how each being carries its own web of darkness in secret.
For, after all, they are open wounds, bearing on their face
Fissures of a world to which they fly in their cold blood.
Breaks that tell their stories in the barely heard whisper of the night,
Windows towards mornings where yet the sun, gently, eventually rises.

Dream of a Saguaro

Although flowers bloom it’s awkward to say that they are flowers
because they are not flowers, but thorns disguised as yellow pistils 
and stamens surrounded by the petals made of pieces of colorless
paper. Moreover, their fragrance bears no meaning at all because 
they bloom in the night, 

and each time when the scorching sun brands the cactus’ skin 
it cries out loud from the pain of the thorns pierced through 
it’s burning flesh to form renewed skin, 
then, surprised by a heartrending cry, 
the birds flap their wings to fly in the air abandoning the cactus.

However the birds may be, they only are lifeless drones 
flying over a desert. And since they are lifeless, they 
don’t know the meaning of life, and that’s why they only see

the thorny flowers standing open arms in the midst of the desert that is 
filled with ashes of death—nuclear wastes, abandoned poisonous chemical
solutions polluted waters that drive lives to the edge of death.

To the saguaro cactus standing in the midst of man-made miseries, 
nonetheless, dreamed to have an audience with 
the mystic Queen of the Andes, 

and in order for him to fulfill his dream,
to have a long journey toward the south moving along with the sun, 
and then, after crossing the delicate line marked zero,* 
climbing up the Andes for a higher ridge that is higher than the drone. 

And as you go higher the wind starts to rise;
when the wind gets stronger to cut through the skin,
then saguaro’s thorns start to prick its own body from 
loneliness unbearable,  

and that is the time ripe for
the mystic Queen of the Andes to reveal herself 
from the clearing fogs, behind the thick and heavy veil of clouds.

She appears in a dress embellished with tens of thousands of 
not overly extravagant or pompous but graceful flowers that 
bloom centenary. 

She is the tree, immaculate and with inviolable dignity,  
she bears the blooms in the serenity of the high and deep mountain.
 
Today too, the saguaro cactus under scorching sun dreams 
a dream of seeing the elegant Queen of the Andes someday,
even afar it, stands as ever. 

Enveloped in the cloud, though Queen hides her image
she has left her sweet scent behind, 
in the sweet scent she left, the thorn flower saguaro stands
willing to wait another one hundred years to see her again.

Navigating Outward Bounds of Relationships

Volition, orientation familiarization aahing
and oohing within restrictive paradigm molding
inviolable honorable gentility -
flagrantly, desirously, clearly boyz abandoning
willfully skirting, panting (heavily)
forfeiting abominably, (no Joe King) abiding

chomping at bit, damning delineated, or obscure
parameters, between one acceding
Earthlinked selfish living
psychosexual pining human bing,
and another ardently avowedly ambitious
altruistic agent provocateur (lol)

at first blush hinting Moulin Rouge adulation
under dim (witted) lighting accenting
individual randy salient
traits savoring tête-à-tête
tasty hors d'oeuvres accentuating
nuances highlighting flirtatious countenance

initially unconditionally stubbornly accepting
dire hormonal straits
as prickly fledgling acquaintanceship
quivers, negotiates, kickstarts abolishing
inchoate biochemical protracted coupling
conveniently interpreting accessing

breeching, catapulting Dickensian estuary,
non verbal communication nsync abridging
painstakingly erecting complex edifice
suavely, urbanely, wittily accessorising
tried and truevalue tricks acclaiming
debonair heroic manliness princely

qualities dutifully dominate directing
demure damsel in distress absconding
convincing, foreplaying, jimmying,
rollicking readily acclimatizing
challenges thrust up gracefully parlaying
most savvy serious similarly sophisticated

totally tubular testosterone tactics
versatile repartee accomplishing
dynamics cultivating atavistic romantic ballet
on duh poe whit tick abutting
metaphorical foot accoutering

trappings adorned since mythological
Adam and Eve accrediting
latter, sans virile unavoidable temptation
savoir faire verboten fruit, accelerating
action whereby unsuspecting, slithering,
lurking serpent teen accounting
rattle unheard by apse cent church fathers

subsequently excoriating, condemning, accusing,
nonetheless indomitable transcendence achieving
pinnacle of prostrate poignancy
inexpressible ecstasy acquiescing
nonpareil acquisition adulation activating
ascendence assaying administering
amorousness activating. aching.

                         Thoughts and words cannot be reconciled
                                       In the tunnel I'm locked
                                         Echo of mortal words
                                   and the footprints of the killer
                                     Spiders and hordes of bats
                           Although I am inviolable, death is stronger
                         I can not fight against the power of darkness
                                       in this criminal underworld
                                  Raw and intense - brutal realities

                                       Trapped in my own body
                   Closes my eyes and disappears into my own existence
                                        I realize the pitiful truth
                             The sledgehammer hits harder and harder
                                      An ice cold, psychopathic killer
                             The head and the heart will so gladly accept
                                      this indescribably ruthless pain
                                    The past and the future are killed
                                    I hope the shadows never find me 

                                        ____/____ let my soul rest
                                      until we meet again

*Dear friends, as you see the poem was written on the 7th of April today- 15 April 2014-  unfortunately, I found out that I am absolutely right to say what I say, for the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ( PNAS), announced that " Researchers have found out that pollutants are strengthening storms ..." My poem is not just philosophical, it is the reality for our planet is a living organism with inviolable laws which we have to respect otherwise we have to face the consequences!

Hopeless

Hopeless 

You said you were perfect and better than me
Destroyed all my fantasies and memories

You said that you would always be higher than me
I’m only a slave for you and should stay on my knees
You said that I was a mistake in your ideal life
You said that I was a girl only for one night
 Do you know what I feel right?
And that brings nothing only pain
Without you I’m ok but with you I’m hopeless
Again and again
Chorus
And I feel hopeless? on my way
Destroyed my heart, you made me insane
And I know that is more than
More than just simply game
And I feel hopeless buy today
You’ll break myself without chains
And I know that it’s more than silly game
I’m hopeless again
2
You said that I always was a good machine
You said that you loved my pain since we’re 19
You love all my tears and scars they make you alive
But all I’ve got from you is inviolable pride,
Thank you
Chorus
3
Without knowing “What’s my name?”
Without feeling who I am
I’m hopeless again
I’m hopeless again
Yes, I’ll forgive you all these stuff
But that’s enough, enough, enough
Won’t be hopeless again, not again

Premium Member Unassailable Purity

Unassailable purity, a cognition divine of venerated mind,
Proffers promise inviolable, beneficence sacred aligned,
With force invincible emanating from goodwill of heart
Forming precepts impeccable, teachings benevolent impart.

Purity of thought and action~ a worthy and righteous goal,
Resounds indomitable from kindred voice of resolute soul;
A heavenly call of compassion, extolling sanctity of love,
Lifting tenor of gloomy dawns~ soothing refrains of dove.

Unassailable purity in life, a road map of directions to hope,
Sacrosanct are its valiant acts, vowing ceaselessly to cope,
Performing with mighty resolve, deeds inducing pride;
Serving humbly as invisible hand of irreproachable guide.

Assisting destitute is the sermon, tolling bells of prayer,
Beckoning the weary, indigent, to shelter and welfare;
Comforting grief of despair with words enlightened, aware,
Consoling cry of nothingness, bequeathing love and care.

It exemplifies within her selfless smile, purity of her eyes,
Reassuring her children, bliss of mother’s love never dies;
Its rectitude unassailable, eternal as the reign of time,
A gift precious, paramount to life~ ethereal and sublime.

Premium Member The Legend of the Bamboo Forest

The royal chambermaid and the young warrior, fleeing the wrath of the heavenly palace, were flying low, their robes trailing through the air like colourful ghosts. Their elopement to the earthly domain had been condemned by the celestial throne, and now the soldiers of the pursuing army, forbidden to descend any further into the dwelling place of mortals and beasts, the line between heaven and earth being inviolable, had massed in the sky, each with a white cloud underfoot, their eyes following the desperate flight of the fugitives, two bright specks sweeping over the barren landscape far, far below. The commanding general raised his sword. 

Deserting the blue,
Match made in heaven, earthbound,
Gravity of love. 

The two lovers could sense that the end was near. Flying huddled together, his arm around her shoulders, they looked into each other’s eyes, a wistful smile on their lips, the wind pushing a thin strand of the chambermaid’s hair onto her face like the track of a tear. To die next to each other, just above the realm where they could be human about their love, was the second best fate they could have wished for.

Doomed by human hearts, 
Celestials embracing fate,
Flight interrupted.     

The sky darkened. A million jade arrows poured straight down from the heavens, blocking out sun and hope, whistling through the air, a shrill dirge, then smashed like thunderbolts into the land, their shafts and feathers quivering in a green fury at having been sunk in this filthy turf forever. Presently, deep in their midst, out of the trembling, seedless earth, appeared a pair of mysterious red flowers that, through the numberless winters since, have refused to wither.

A merciless sky,
A deluge of green arrows,
Bamboo forest sways.
