Long Juxtapositions Poems

I don't think it's just me.
I find myself challenged to change LeftBrain cognitive beliefs,
languaged abstractions of personal feelings,
perhaps because it is not possible to change Right Brain's
Elder feelings of co-passionate trust
where dipolar co-arising positive pleasure

Swept up into piles; everywhere 
Abouts; in collected heaps all 
Around.               
It is almost as if the drab 
Streets were strewn...

"The Forgotten Poets"



Saints and Sinners
all calling out for 
forgiveness 
and wanton recognition

de Sade like minds
libertine and revolutionary
Saints living out their penance 
kiss the sharp lips of Sinners

Juxtapositions of souls
Sinners become divine
Saints become unhinged 
more human,...

As the glistening jewels 
         of snow cascade like 
ballerinas pirouetting

choreographed from porcelain

Tuesday, 12:00 am

Tonight t'was the stars
I'll cascade a memorizing moon
Glimmering sanctified silence 
along with 
trickling twilight for 
iconoclast ink, 
the serpentine key to 
sacred myrrh melodies
of my heirloom heart~
O glamorous specs of
citrine care to each
unravelling...

Oh God what is wrong with your people
Can you feel it, the pain and the loss
Are we each to be martyred and broken
Our sentence to end on the cross

The world cries in vain, for a...

Shadow Play

While Freud sits at the mind end of the couch phallus in hand
shapes others’ dreams in unspoken imposition ‘must-abation’
analyses abuses his daughter in metaphorical incest projects
his own aggressive sexual drives and neurotic megalomania

Sitting at a table I met a woman of ethical means

Surrounded by trees, warm, green, contrast

Arrives this woman, vibrant, driven, the silence broken a little

Jousting through early minutes of introduction

We drink coffee, pass small talk...

Denouement

The plot thickens broadens in plastered confused juxtapositions
over time there and then weaves tapestries lost unfound caught

Viscous tears dried out shed rivers searching oases oceans of love
squeeze suffering hatred solid misconceptions scripted resolve 

Crocheted dreams...

It feels as if this should be wrong 
But after today I don’t think that there is such a thing as wrong or right
Because what if

What if I have been going about...

It’s time we become aware of this syndrome lie:
“The more things change; the more they stay the same.”
Use your NI to simply check out this scamming phrase;
Are not change and same oxymoronic juxtapositions?!

P o e t r y fills my heart 
with lyrical acrolect:
slowly swaying 
my fingers

  ecstatic

When accidental 
auroras stroll along 
the pale highlights of
camouflaging corpses
and death blossoms
in vulturous hearts of 
dreadful puppets, 
she always holds
pixie dusts of 
strawberry seeds within 
october's obsidian quartz. 

Gaze beyond those
glass-stitched horizons, 
as she cracks...

The conscious human beast
A paradox presides
Blessed with unique awareness
Cursed by the biological blind drives

Arrogance clouded in uncertainty
Pride profused with shame
The irreconcilable juxtapositions
Driving us covertly - overtly insane

Anxious- we yearn for liberation
Yet we can’t seem to...

Alleged anthrax-laden alligator arrives in afternoon
Beyond bright baboon baby bestows brilliance 
Chaste chimpanzees charge chagrined cheetahs 
Doped donkeys deliberate director’s dictate
Elongated eel exasperate enormous elephants
Fruit flies flit and flutter among fruity flowers
Gravely gross gibbons gripe...

Parenthetical phrases help you read between the lines

The purple heart, that which beats with pure power
Covers the blood flowing throughout the inside
This heart will crystallize making me cower
Painful transition from flesh to what abides

What The Bleeping Bleepers?

What the bleeping bleepers
what the blankety blanks
what the freaking freaks

what the bucking bucks
what the tucking tucks
what the plucking plucks
