Premium Member Awake

AWAKE  ~ IN and OUT ~

Spring arising, before morning light,
I walk under the new epic sun
The aroma of yesterday, gone
Today's the day that will follow tomorrow
I quickly walk a certain walk
Unique is all I can display
Watery eyes staying in the past
While vehicles pass and pass
Crosses lacking faith
I stay awake and mend with my fate
Foggy toys, I want to play
I can't keep up with all your kicks
I look, I stare, at the walls
Bright and early, I step on old dolls
I stay and feel, the way you want
Lifeless, and still so full of energy
Mad words, unconscious forces
My sweet needs, now reside inside of you
Mad, sad, and outside the box
You close every door and keep me away from dark

You only allow me to feel your morning light
Why can't you let me see what's behind the shadows?
Why do you turn on all the lights? 

I'm here the way you want me to be
Happy, and merry, for the world to see
This blindness will continue to spot
Unless you wake up first and remove the dot
You gave me the thirst, you once knew
So filthy, so full of  -spew
Under this closed freaking door
I'm exposed like the midday sun
You bang my head on the wall,
You killed me in a way that made me feel!
I only answer to your call
In and out a hoop~ like a ball
In me, you can not find any real dreams!
Inside you filled me with a raging scream

Sssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! 
I'm in wonder around your air castle
Strange and hung on your mantle
Stepping on a one footed slave

Alert, alert Am I!!!
I shake, we kiss, I wake,
You sleep...........................
I zip all things into one zipper.
Pounding my hands against my ears
Crazy, taking a jab upon all jabs
Crazy, you say~ that's me everyday
I'm up and I caress the photo we once had
I lay only staring at you once more
I awake before I sleep
Your promises I keep
In me~ you are also in deep
My stars change everyday
Waiting for you, to pull the trigger
Still wishing to be a sun digger

You can't touch or loosen the knots
Together we will daydream our way to the top
I make your nerve system come alive, 
We run into the wind and listen
Quietly in our chamber of thoughts
Near and far, we both nod off
In this daily race, with no face
No space, 
I caught myself awake, 
The day I fell asleep for you.

Respite From Mortality

Poetry knows no age, as thee Marcia
Abramsohn (the former ex lady friend
of my late father corresponded with me
some years back)
wrote (by hand nonetheless,
a long lost art) inlaid with ambidextrous
zealousness impossible to identify,
which hand crafted artistically colorful
epigrammatic ghostly hint emblematic
of former exuberance toward English

Language..., perhaps other once
vibrantly familiar tongues wagging 
less as tempus fugit slithers unseen
stealing most cherished, prized, savored...
commodity set to countdown immediately
post parturition, yet blessed for thee
to be gifted your then four score plus four
amazingly graceful journeys celebrating
your existence replete with handmaid's
tales chronicling quotidian trials and

tribulations, yet still adept, buoyant,
cogent, diligent, eloquent, fervent,
gallant, hellbent, intent, jimmying,
kindling, loving, mustering, nursing,
outlasting...Methuselah (ha...if only)
lucid moments nudging awake
memorialized occasions, where once
upon a time (seems bajillion years ago)
innocence concomitant with naivete
throve, wherein unfettered dalliances

found untrammeled lasses and lads 
absorbed with natural unbridled virgin 
love – gathering rosebuds while they may
whispering sweet nothings strictly 
for respective paramour, (this of course 
hearsay and speculation) promising each 
other moon and stars ah...dusty fading 
memories, yours truly can never recount,
(cuz mental illness co-opted, hijacked,
up-ended...adolescent maturation,

whereby agonizing crippling forfeiture jabs
silhouetted illusory oasis peopled with
all the golden opportunities left to wither
on the vine o'mine youth, which mirage
mocks escapist attempt into literary realm
invisible dead poets society regale an
existence bereft nope, no App could
ever even virtually duplicate (even
approximate) sidelined unrequited love,
and no this marriage yielded scanty

satisfaction, which fantasy life as
Norwegian bachelor farmer 
(within mine imagination) solved,
where living off the grid remedied
forever being pennilessness, day late
dollar short dime a dozen dirt poor
dude dulling dufus...that's the news from
my Lake Woebegone...where all the
women...and children above the law
never get reprimanded.

Combining My Poems

During Each Day

Day By Day has become very important to me.
And opened up my eyes so I can start to see;
Right direction;
Proper connection;
How and way things by God were meant to be.

Jim Horn

Unravel Road To Travel

As Christ's message we do start to unravel;
Realize down His road only He can travel;
Sin was spread,
We do dread,
Beneath Trinity's feet became their gravel.

Jim Horn

Our souls are represented by each shred
and scrap of gravel.

Calling Appeared Appalling

Politicians seem to put off and are stalling;
Which we all do dislike and find appalling;
Results are traumatic,
And yet still dynamic,
When they should listen to God's calling.

Jim Horn

Had Been and Come Again

Jesus was lovely Mary's little lamb;
His Father is great, "I am that I am;"
Here had been;
Will come again;
Saying you are Him is such a sham.

Jim Horn

People Were Profane

We are perfect example of being profane;
Full of much dismay along with disdain;
Do not disguise,
And then realize,
Should worship God and will remain sane.

Jim Horn

From Lineup Be Cut

About things are either and an or a but,
Nor and more keeping my mouth shut;
Deeper do get,
Are more upset;
From the entire lineup you could be cut.

Jabs and Jeering

People may run things including racketeering;
Make jabs with and remarks that are jeering;
Making a threat,
They will regret; 
Into darkness they did end up disappearing.

Jim Horn

Those Who Do Dilly Dally

There are those who often do dilly dally;
Awkwardly around them a group will rally;
Makes no sense,
For those dense;
Did end up buried down deep in a valley.

Jim Horn

You are right. Why throw ut a bunch of
individual when you can read all of them
together on one page. From here on I
will be consolidating all of my poems.
Someone else deserves a turn at
being recognized. What I have realized
is I have written over 5,000 poems and 
am number 3 compared to over 30,000
other poets. None of my poems are in the
top 100 most popular and famous ones. 
My only hope is that my poems will inspire
other poets to write more poems so have
at it. Either James Serious Mysterious Horn
or James Thesarious Hilarious Horn. Take
your pick

Premium Member Golden Secrets In the Flower

"...The Secret of the Golden Flower is not only a Taoist text of Chinese yoga but also an alchemical tract. (...) it was the text of The Golden Flower that first put me in the direction of the right track." C. G. Jung

"The Golden Flower alone, which grows out of inner detachment from all entanglement with things, is eternal." Richard Wilhelm

does it bloom in the subatomic quark neuron
a flower petals deranged
burning with green rage
dark firmament pullulating infinitesimal quasars
unpeeling layers of nuclear fusions fissions
the blue-blackish greenish-blue haze

is this the eye looking at the eye
which I
between the crushed ajña-eyebrows
under eyes straining to envelope reality from afar
spotty bright grains pulsating in a velvety ink-blue-black throbbing screen
thoughts racing forwards and backwards in time

childhood slights deprivations unrevenged hurts
throbbing thriving on treacherous jabs by of-all beings friends
those who profit from taken-for-granted confidences
the women who dun-you-in
thoughts of a nature to make you hate fate

then the pulsating roving churning dismembering coalescing screen
dissolves
and in the pale fringey opening white furry stripes on the blue-black greenish bulgey bed of velvet
whose I
lights the frigid fire burning dynamo
whose eye
shrivels
reopens brightens
what is it an eye
which stares
shrinks sharper by the fractioned second
closes and opens again
and again
till the pinpoint galactic blackholing centre
bigbangs

the myriad diamondlights buoyed on a myriad-petalled dryburning flowering sun
shedding golden glory
expelling all thought or is it mere doubt
the intense unrelenting feeling of
is it joy
or a fumbling stolen fear
the mental orgasmic relief
the sense of deep other knowing power come face to face
refreshing retreading the worn-out neuron paths

then the return
after the wearinesses
or is it nonplussednesses

to this world
to words
to wars
to waste
to wickedness
a world without wonder
without womb
a world dying
dead
a tomb
see only what you should see
words see only what eyes make belief
even when words don’t mean what they see

Premium Member After

Day One

The bomb when it fell sent the planet to hell 
With unrestrained retaliation 
The damage was done and the end had begun
With no hope of human salvation

I woke with a scream from that God awful dream
And took my wife into my arms 
My thoughts were of lust but she crumbled to dust
And she didn’t respond to my charms
_____

Week Two

The landscape is stark for the ash cloud is dark
And the grass doesn’t grow any more
Few creatures can feast since the fire from the east
Made nothing as good as before

Then came acid rain, that again and again
Burned our skin til it was raw
But if there’s an upside, we now can go outside
The rain doesn’t burn anymore
_____

Year Three

The sidewalks I walked, where good neighbours talked
Are tangled with undergrowth, new
Those neighbours are gone but the heat lingers on
In an atmosphere no longer blue

The place that we once called ‘The city’
Is now thick with ferns, shrubs and trees
As I made a sound, a deer stood its ground 
For nowadays no beast ever flees

From what I can see, he eats better than me
My nutrition comes out of a can 
This jungle now covers this land, sea to sea
And nothing is scared of a man
_____

Year Ten

Surviving the blast gave the old man a laugh
Until the the Big C hit his bones
His loss has cut Earth’s population in half
I buried him with the unknowns

So now I’m the one to relate what was done
And document how man survived
An earnest presumption that soon came unspun
Ash shadows cannot be revived
_____

Year Twenty

Who might have guessed that the jabs in my chest
Would go unattended by drugs
My diet, I guess, would never impress
As I eat mostly baked beans and bugs
_____

Year — who’s counting?

So, this has been me; last man standing
My journey and journal now done
I leave this world to its rebranding
A process that’s long since begun

It seems I’ve been less than observant
For with these last breaths I have seen
That I, the last human, shall bid my farewell
To a new world that’s vibrant and green

Premium Member The Poison

A Concealed exercise concocted, 
Wuhan Lab the playground, 
secretive China obliges,
Western media consenting, 
Medical experts silenced. 
the age of censorship,  

Dictators feigning incognito, 
The diurnal and  nocturnal schemes of top players, 
A script before the scourge, 
The drama of emergencies
A death unwarranted 
alternative cure submerged,
 Pharmacopia  playing  god,     
opinions censored, 
Freedom becomes a crime

Men afraid to die,
adorned in masks as domesticated vermin, 
Socialist alarmed at Cowards 
As dictatorship  ascending in western democracy,  
Ignorance elevated as advocate for CDC 
Unending Speculation by tyranny
The weekly changing rules.
Connivers employing Fear, 
Orchestrations and the Mournful diddy 
Alpha
Beta, 
Gamma
Delta, 
and Omicron the game changer. 

Controlling the world by unproven conjectures 
First it was the Mask, 
Then social distancing, 
Sanitize, Isolation without empathy,
The numbers defiant, 
The People's servants globally consenting to experiment 
with the speed of a wing
The Lab Lords  proposed a cure,   
Greed conspired , the masses the guinea pigs, 
Unverified Vaccine,  
defrauding all of the liberty of Choice,
unprofessional medical rape,  
breaking the Laws to invoke their Laws,
Rulers Turned scientists 
Dictator found their Voices 
compelling all to dine in an experiment 
“safe and effective” the chorus of bias profiteers 
Society divided. 
“Vaxxed” VS “unvaxxed” 

All Watching TV to form opinion.
Australia copies UK, 
subjecting citizens to barbarism
America copies Australia,
senseless cohesion in place of Freedom, 
France copying America, 
Ignorant Cops abusive, 
opposing sensible resistance,

The Truckers made a mark  
though clamped down by tyrannical “emergencies” 
The unending Jabs, 
four times in Israel curing nothing,
A false sense of security,
The demand sales pitched 
Experiment over,  The  Data concealed 
To protect a Lie,
A massive Fraud,
The UK law breaker suspends  mandates,
avoiding the sword of Damocles 
And they all one by one taking turns 
accepting failures while others in denial 
ignoring the damage of trial

Able ability answers all aptitude as attempts at accurate acquisition allows 
achievement
Blending bold beauty beside bare body by being basic brain based believers
Circling constant cool casual caring comfort can combine complete class

Developing definite direction does delight during distance driven delving deep

Expecting every extreme effort enters each evolving educated expression easily

Generous gift gesture gives guided guesses good genuine glowing gentle

Holding happy healthy history helps hospitable hungry hip host handle hysterical

If idea input induces instincts it is important Id issues insight immense individual

Jerking joy just jams jig jobs jinxing jolly jarring jabs joining justice
Kept knowledge knits knocked knickers keeping keeled kicking knob keepers

Letting lofty lyrics lift load levels legitimizing learning lessons linking laughing lots
Managing marvelous methods makes melded manners motivate much more 
masterful middle mingling
Necessary new nests numb nimble nervous needling never nixing needed

Premium Member A Trip To the Dentist

Face fractured with fear 
As the Taxi drew near
The building was in the next street
" I'll drop you off here" 
Said Steve full of cheer
(Annoyingly rather upbeat.)

As you pushed on the door
It's sticky hinge  hissed
And you drew in your breath
At the scent of 'dentist'

"Youre a little late" the lady said
Do you live somewhere rural ? 
You swigged on your hip flask
 Looked her right in the eye,  saying
"Just get me an epidural."

"Now now Mrs Phillips
You'll be just fine "
Said the lady so white and starched
And into the chamber of old magazines,
You were unceremoniously marched. 

With Your heart like a piston
And blood pressure soaring
(Even " Horse and Hound" seemed 
Tired and boring )
Lulled by a clock counting out every second,
Till you started with fright 
As a dental nurse beckoned ...

"Please don't worry,  don't be so tense "
Said Helga ( on work experience )
And then with sinister gravity 
Said "We'll take care of that cavity "

"Hello" boomed a voice from the back of the room,
 I'm here to do your extraction.    I've done them before so no need to shake,
Look at me if you need a distraction  "

"This won't take a second, it's all pretty simple
Just a couple of jabs and we're there "
So first with your right fist and then with your left,
He was out cold, on the floor, by your chair. 

You ripped off your bib, took a swig of the pink
And suddenly feeling much better,
You lunged for the door and ran down the stairs
As fast as a sprightly red setter. 

You ran to a sweet shop and asked for some toffee
"Give me the chewiest stuff that you've got"
"Sure said the assistant , this one's from Yorkshire
And here, you can have the lot "

You took of the wrappers and stuffed it all in 
Then chewed like a donkey on acid
And in a few seconds, the tooth that was hurting
Left a hole as big as Lake Placid. 

So what is the moral 
I hear you all ask 
Of this tale both of triumph and sorrow ?
Well forget your insurance, leave your cheque book at home, 
Just unwrap and chew on a toffo

Not a Vibe

'Play back that sound',she explained with bitterness,
'What's wrong?',I questioned,
I found out that she was severally harrassed at a conference, 
"He won't be entertained by any room with his proposal",as she envisioned,
Just sitting on the bed,I jinggled overtone,
Did questioned me for such unpleasant tone,
But my answer comes unfold, 
Making her look silly,I broke into laughter,
'So you're happy of yourself not being caring',
she kept on exclaiming my name aswell,
"......alright,please let me know frankly for now if I'm not your class girl,
"After all,I can guess you've gotten a new lover in there",
On aboard,I felt pictures of funny and amusing statement as she said,
Being the focal point,I replied as such to her,
"Kindly make me proud beautiful lady as the day goes by,
...only on the goal of accepting those proposals from that beloved guy" ,
'Thanks to God we're no more as lovers',that was her voice,
"....be in search of me never from anyone now onwards",
she added such a subtle context,
Ever since we met as friends was there a moment I said to her about a precept,
"My love for you is of God's unconditional love,
Don't set on sexual segregation",
Thoughtfully,diligence wasn't tactfully highlighted by her intention,
Beneath the bowl's cover,she grabbed that portion as merely,
In as much as she went ahead throwing jabs at me,
A vital integration against her module of thinking set in,
But her promiscuous attitude never scored her sence of dignity,
Proving my kind,made her go bananas,
"Fool,stupid guy......you!"
Vomited out all these to me with contempt,
Preventing alienation and imperialism,
I gave her a dose of self repent, 
'Don't be as a Muppet organism',
Adding this tuned her into a groaning lion,
As time went on from the tick of grumble, 
Shame unto you dearly,
....huuuu...our love is inseperable',
she said with densely, 
Putting on a tortured garment,
I became less feisty before a firmament, 
Grooving within this scope,
she spotted my vibes but never killed a coach, 
It was all a dream!
