Hemmed In Feminine

Scale mosaic tail lays gracefully draped over rock
Sumptuous hip width to skin graduates
Saturated waist trailing tendrils touched by moss
Silk mermaid nautical languor eminates
Sorrow in inhibit, love's absence induces her sobs


Vanguard calmly addresses the depths with probe
Weaving seemlessly amongst seaweed 
Gentle marina mistress, Clementine reserves hope
For a qualified merman, in love succeed
Tugged subtly by tides of princely promises flowed


Spell of solo exploration doesn't tarnish bright fins
Siren inspired by increasing innate talent
Sanguine supple lovely needn't gun for yang to yin 
Suitor to exceed her calibre, most haven't 
Shown aptitude for brave compassion, closest kin


Clam fan covered curves retain an untainted heart
Slender arms open troves old tides buried 
Gracious Clementine stays patient for Cupid's dart
Pleasant peaks of top lips drip salt, selfish
Lungs unemcombered by blunder summons laugh


Tinkle bells bemused chortle across vibrant pearls
Heightened by judicious standpoint jubilee
Felicious pageant entrant in a  fish tail gown swirls
Heavy gems adorn torso tight with chastity 
Air orgasmed chest of benevolent treasure unfurls

Above the Law

in this civilized democratic society we have the law
a system of checks and balances that our forefathers had foresaw
but today we have the rich and powerful, the elitist ones
who think that they're above the law no matter what deeds they have done
we also have those who are in a law-enforcement capacity
who think the law does not  apply to their acts of duplicity
we have court clerks, judges, attorneys and D.A.s
who use the rules of law as a game that they can play
yet it's us the American citizens, the law-abiding average man
who view the law as a most important and judicious plan
innocent until proven guilty, it's the democratic way
we regard the law as a necessary rule to have order in this day
it's a shame and a travesty that those in trusted positions of power
think that their deeds are above the law at any given hour
so how do we fix this problem and amend this flaw?
so everybody will know that they are not above the law.

I AM POETRY

 

light penetrated dark, sound birthed
the Word ~ p o e t r y
a superlative emitting that which changes 
emerging when ripened as verse
speaking to people faraway 
unlocking alphabets from minds 
to glide, fast fly, jump or slowly crawl, landing 
at destined places, swords or aces

I am Poetry ~ weep or whimper not for me
existentially dancing, enthralling, glancing at 
blank paper to be embroidered in ink 
ruby red, black or olive green 
free flow I from fingers fragile, artistic or sturdy 
regulate me only for joy or exploring expansion 
perhaps for judicious judgement

I, P o e t r y ~ sequins of Love convoluted or rayed, in service 
purifying emotive sentiments conditioned, romantic, missioned 
Heart is my home where rest my letters, forms
cadences, couplets, epics
in non-bewildered  intelligence visioning dreamscapes 
divine, liberated from bandages, buckles, bondages
  
alive is my Supersoul breath giving voice to electrons 
protons, neutrons which  fleetingly capture 
essenced life through observed elixirs 
as Poetry, I witness action followed by pure 
stillness ~ transcendental whirlpools in orbits
my limbs reach language lyrical or plain 
burnished and wise
cherishing recitals in sacred spaces 

I activate thoughts and visions remaining 
supremely unattached  attuning words 
for Grace ~ 
undulate imagination in perfect waves 
misty, clear or intricate, intriguing, unblemished 
gratifying, swivelling, sizzling in my own 
fire or ice
I, Poetry, consummated
voice the W o r d

Passive aggressive insubordination against establishmentarian paradigm

Bully me, yours truly 
never ordained, gifted, or blessed
with mien mean characteristic
evoking, jump/kickstarting,
representing, nor zapping
friend or foe courtesy fiery intimidation
if anything aura, charisma, dogma, and karma
emanating, issuing, and oozing out
body electric of one heretofore bookish fellow
immediately facilitates characterization
hashtagged lucubration and manifestation of quietude.

Though true agitation transparent to passersby
soul asylum of sexagenarian beleaguered
with invisible mailer daemons
that hound the psyche
of this doggone muttering bonafide wordsmith.

In argot of polymath author of these words,
(the modestly noteworthy
opportunistic, poetic Matthew Scott Harris)
essentially he describes himself
as a generic simple Simon,
who never met a pieman
his mellow outward demeanor
belies, harbors, and represses
a quaking, raging bull, and seething
tempestuous storm beneath the calm,
which faux placidity
shields a woke monster
(donned in Harris tweed and Scottish tartan)
mashing everything in his wake
courtesy huge feet
resembling puff daddy bear paws.

Though found out later in life
than most muggles
aforementioned humble
human like bipedal hominid
discovered extraordinary ability
to morph from dimwitted dork dweeb
into grim faced, frightful,
albeit gentle unassuming 
pygmy up by the petard giant extraordinaire,
which latent superpower
never served him in good stead
to ward off cruel classmates and peers
tormenting teasing taxing
terrorizing treatment til tears
trickled down my cheeks.

Every now and again,
when some nasty brutish beastly lout 
dares to utter colorful invectives,
a gradual transformation 
slowly but surely occurs 
within every baited cell
(automatically summoned, triggered, 
and unveiled courtesy a bitterly 
deadly force to be reckoned with 
deep within these lovely bones)  
witnessing sudden bravado and daring do
additionally helped along after I discretely 
chomp on powder milk biscuits
(the secret recipe only known 
to forbidding Norwegian bachelor farmers)
giving an unexpected 
judicious Hawaiian punch 
to the loathsome miscreant
(never knowing what hit him)
knocking said thug out in cold blood.

My True Companion

Oh! My true companion, 
Thanks for your support and participation. 
Happy to get an identification. 
The ever presence shows your dedication. 
The trajectory of life achieves a perfection. 
You open doors for communication, 
Use Ultrasimple medium for conversation. 
Thanks for this care and judicious action. 
When I fail, you keep me out of depression. 
When it is new, you provide proper acclimatization. 
All leave by and then with suspicious action, 
But you stand still like a rock with no disintegration. 
Your patience opens a new dimension, 
It recedes the tensions and gives them moderation. 
I top your priority list without an exception. 
Thanks to keep me out of deceptions. 
You are the only immortal in the world of corrosion. 
To know you and accept you give me satisfaction, 
It fuels me with strong determination. 
Should I take your name with your permission?
Although you don't need an introduction, 
Its "Time " Who never care for an invitation
And definitely will stay till my cremation.

You

Saw the rose open bloom by the blink of an eye 
whilst I sit by a blue ribbon sea   
love agape in my room all my fears are a lie       
with the grace of Your love, I do see 
that the sun never fails to return to the sky
like the water returning to sea    
as I walk on a shore by an eagle's shrill cry  
through the grace of Your love,  I do see 
little footsteps behind, never leading me blind 
doth I swim in the ocean of free 
you alone hath begotten my soul to unwind 
and through grace of Your love, I do see 
as the mollusk un-clams in his lyrical shell  
Lufian -light comes to see   
that truth is a bullion of gold , all is well 
and through the grace of Your love, we all see 
that the stars always shine in the seine  
while the temporal lights all agree    
He's our lifing device, judicious and sane 
and through grace of His love, 
we all,  can see.

___________________________

Above are these competing views
Of social construct ends
And choice is not to win or lose
But how they all should blend.

The truth is each is built into
The fabric of our days
Requiring that we must pursue
Sound, realistic ways.

Judicious blend is what we need
To keep us on due course -
With none promoted to exceed
And sanction our remorse.

Premium Member Tribute to Harry Horsman

“The song is ended but the melody lingers on.” – Irving Berlin

Ever since I became a Souper in 2022
A profile with tinted eyeglass and grey hair,
Reflecting gentleness and aristocracy,
Caught my wandering yet judicious eyes.
On reading his poems, I was drawn to him.

A cool and level headed man was Harry.
Strong like an old Oak tree, ever sheltering.
A sanctum to new poets, a guardian to all,
A man of warmth and wisdom, an inspiration.
He was not just one among a clump of trees
But stood aloof like an oak tree, firmly rooted.

In his popular poem The Old Oak Tree,
He lays down the credo of his life~              

            “Let us be sanctuary to the
             symbolic songstress, scuttling
             squirrel, vulgar urchin;
             a fortress for the warrior
             a haven for the pacifist
             an inspiration for the poet!”

Never a pedant, flaunting his trophies,
For he knew the transitoriness of worldly fame.
Never fancied to ride the Hot Air Balloon
Knowing, it would come down to earth, deflated.

Not a votary of the ultra- modern.
In An Agenda-less Age- a poem of his,
He nostalgically reminisces his childhood,
In a rustic country side with no timetables and no worries,
With 'a tuneful mum dusting the blues in a song,'
Where fences were constructed, not as barriers,
But as support to lean on and chat with neighbors.

Harry, with you we believe too- ‘Death is not the End’
But the Golden Gate to another life.
Though your voice has fallen silent,
You continue to speak to us through your poems.
Your songs are still, yet you live on,
Through every line of verse composed.

Hiroshima N Nagasaki Seventy Five Years Since 1945

Hiroshima n Nagasaki – Seventy Five Years Since 1945

Robert Oppenheimer manned 
"The Manhattan Project", 
a top secret World War II mission                   
which constituted "Little Boy" codename 
for a uranium gun-type 
atomic bomb dropped at 0815

exploding 580 metres above civilians 
with 15 kiloton blast yield 
reduced 400 year old city to dust
Colonel Paul Tibbets, 
the pilot/ bombardier 
of the Enola Gay, 

(the Boeing B-29 Superfortress
unleashing nuclear warfare 
seventy years years ago today)
gives cause for this baby boomer to revisit
mentally, the annihilation, 
extermination, incineration 

the first of two storied Japanese enclaves
realizes how trifling my current bout 
with mania paranoia, pneumonia 
(from northern exposure)
contrasted with sinister 
thermonuclear reaction

malevolent evil tower ushering
thermonuclear age epitomizing 
coup de nada so graceful 
means maximum military mutilation
though unwell, this inflammation poised 
to be cured unlike subsequent generations of victims

who survived atrocious, egregious, hellacious, 
judicious slaughter can only poorly be described
by this mortal with curable bacterial/viral infection 
aghast at such wanton killing, more-so
via weapons of mass destruction 
more devastatingly grisly 

than those "experimental" bombs
loosed upon the innocent population, 
whereby 75,000 people killed or fatally injured
with 65% of casualties nine years of age and younger 
whence offspring of survivors
evincing excess genetic anomalies 

with fiery windy surface (think towering infernos)
temperatures topping 4,000°C 
upon terrain hallowed by ghastly 
horrible deathly dominance 
amidst shadow of sinister mushroom cloud
wickedly, ominously, and eerily looming.
