Premium Member Unassailable Purity

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 
carmine cocoon of 
judgemental juxtapositions 
and transforms 
carbon-coated 
milliseconds to 
magenta-gold 
pronunciation of 
peaceful phrases. 
She is a silken 
cream-dove, 
floating above 
murky musings of 
redolent rhinestone-
reveries. 

As prismatic primroses 
shall cleanse every 
sin from the witching 
spellbook, she will waltz 
in whispering lulls of liberty,
emancipating from 
chloroform-stained 
chains of blood-
scented blames. 

Her sunflower-shield 
and aurous 
summer-sword of 
amber poesy
can slice spicy 
silhouettes of 
graphite goblins, 
she will never 
surrender to those 
misinterpreting
megalomaniac minds, 
who twirl along 
masquerading rivulets 
of manipulative 
assumptions. 

She is the shiniest roar
above grimoires of grief, 
like an 'unassailable purity', 
washing away 
emerald exhales of pain, 
who mutes each cosmic
raven's lament and 
distils russet-white-lilies with 
her alchemical aroma.


A Star Studded Escapement

A Star-Studded Escapement

The foot of this lookout begins with a range of mountains and valleys in a tangle,
Juxtapositions alight that fills the mountain veins with snow at various angles,

The trees run wild through the valley covered floor,
This forest of green meanders along, as the paths’ core,

Clouds circulate and dapple the sunlit horizon in shades of light,
Their movement conjures up a gesture of continuous flight,

Creating shadows on the mountainous cape, at bright of day,
Plays on painted colored contrasts, illuminating as they may,

The snow caps reach to heaven as their eroded surfaces are shaped,
Flowers linger through the valley, where the forests drapes,

Engulfing the mystery of this scenic arrangement,
This fair path free of hindrance makes a great escapement,

The floral tapestry weaves throughout the treed mountain base,
Enjoying the view and the culmination of beauty is what we face.

The Forgotten Poets

"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, mortalised
willingly they are led

They Become

Love makes us 
All Hallowed Souls
intrepid and invisible
crazed with courage

walking unseen through 
the sanctified temples
of the lost and isolated,
The Forgotten Poets

Manifesting, we are mesmerized
We are actuaries counting lives
through the hidden words 
and forsaken numbers

along the jagged lines 
absent of what 
is most deeply sought
ruthless has been the confiscation

to spend our ink on clean sheets
imprinting heat we brand our marks
beating in time and out of time
a tattoo on a body of work 

that will eventually be stroked 

souls are traded 
we are all bought
by the vanity to be read and seen eternally
understood by the Unseen who gifts us 

A moment 
to cross the static mind
to draw a line between 
Trust and the Lies 

We are Sensate 

tracing softly the streets
in a lover’s open palm
to slide a finger sensuously, 
provocatively 

towards the crossroad

of an unclothed and vulnerable 
upturned wrist
feel the pulse tickled 
in the moist hollows of somewhere

a whispered breath 
along a neck kissed 

Communing with cunning alchemy
manifesting what is not said
through broken hearts 
and the tears of half open doorways
closing on pasts best forgotten

wrapping our thoughts like 
warm legs around the burning
Divine 
leading us into temptation 

with 
futures and promises

(LadyLabyrinth / 2020)







 “Certain souls may seem harsh to others, 
but it is just a way, beknownst only to them, 
of caring and feeling more deeply.” 
Marquis de Sade


"My passions, 
concentrated on a single point, 
resemble the rays of a sun 
assembled by a magnifying glass: 
they immediately set fire 
to whatever object they find in their way"
Marquis de Sade

Premium Member Celestial Choreography

As the glistening jewels 
         of snow cascade like 
ballerinas pirouetting 
      to the crescendo of time, 
choreographed from porcelain 
      keys of your h e a r t,
delicate fingers of the 
      winter moon stretch,
enveloping forlorn footprints 
      of poignant memories, 
framed with petal-like poems 
      you've placed in the 
gallery of my melancholic mind 
     where soulless shadows still~
haunt me in holographic 
     hues through somber nights, but
If I were to rewrite the anatomy 
     of this romance with~
juxtapositions, should I rescript 
    your promises in p s y c h e d e l i c ink? 
knit silken sonnets from the 
    tapestry of scintillating 
           stars in our favour, 
letting go of all the 
         seasonal silhouettes
    that seized redolent rhymes, 
maybe, it is from pain 
    we relearn to dream 
    in periwinkle pigments to
nurture and navigate through 
    decayed gardens embalmed in 
opalescent tears and fluorescent fears 
             suppressed and 
personified within gossamer
     tales of sunflower s i l e n c e…
Quilted with questions that your 
     quintessential quill can~
reveal, in romanticised verses, to wade 
     through the abstracts of weary woes. 

So, set your stones to 
      architect cobalt grey lanes, 
to usher feathered thoughts into the 
      serenity of your scented sanctuary. 
until I find the perfect gateway 
      adorned with crystals in the 
verdant valleys, engrossed in vanilla flakes, 
where cosmic yearnings are embroidered 
   between mauve instruments
                    harmonised from 
xylophone whispers reverberating
             in vermilion s t i l l n e s s…

    You will always be the 
            clementine crown of my sun,
              the scarlet scrapes in my ink, 
zested in zealous dahlias 
     and no rain can drown 
                  this celestial 
                         c o l l a b o r a t i o n…..

Premium Member Denouement

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 unsnarled in disguise colour rainbows stain-bows
stain blows and arrows offer inkblots from coiled council reconcile 

Waters cascades cataclysmic beginnings alleviate alluvion’s weight
skirmish tease entice droplets of truths splashing change alteration

Naïve native losses childish unadulterated tangential torrents unfold
allude inundate delude adulthoods’ illusions commence from afresh

Under the bridges of ricocheted echoes trickle drops from Styx to
Ganges feed and contend with the seagulls and vultures of life

The story line concocts and conceives tell retells and remembers
the past as it blends narrates a misty final initiation’s webbed spray

Resolute resolution wets the gills washes clouds spins them around
until springs guzzle project thoughtful narration to entangle once more

Denouement Renewal De-new-ment confer contain depositions repositioned
as some tangling wisdom posits one swims in the same ocean never again

Bad Is Good

If there were no bad days, we would never realise the value of good ones
If we are never sad, we will never appreciate the joy of happiness
If we don't fall sick,  we will not realise the value of good health
If we don't have any enemies, we will never realise the worth of good friends
If there were no autumn, we would not appreciate the beauty of spring
If there were no death, we will never enjoy life fully
Juxtapositions make life interesting, propel us to count our blessings 
But for them life would be so boring!

Premium Member Lyrical Acrolect

P o e t r y fills my heart 
with lyrical acrolect:
slowly swaying 
my fingers
   to outstanding octaves, 
through 
  ecstatic 
  liberated librettos, 
uplifting in a 
  medley of 
   melancholic motions.
I n k is bleeding 
in nocturnal nouns,
composing charismatic 
choruses in 
eclectic shades~
of 
violet and vermilion, 
and quiet quill 
is still searching 
for a 
sentimental serene serenade,
every letter 
meticulously moonwalks 
between lines 
of  silver and grey, 
engrossing beats  
of a heavy heart
in subtle 
   soulful synonyms.

In a dynamic 
world of word weaving,
poet’s depict a 
choir of chronicles
from 
   mellifluous escapades,
merged in
   magnetic metaphors
and synchronized similes,
glamorizing pain
in heavenly 
harmonious juxtapositions,
whilst singing tales 
of oxymorons,
ranting through a 
   rhythm of rhymes,
forming sonorous sonnets
with sensitive syllables.

But these are 
encrypted musings 
of my citrine heart.

In realms of a reality 
that dreams breathless~
behind a 
terrain of tercets 
and porcelain prose.
For life as 
  an abundant artist
is a premature platform,
where e m o t i o n s
    are expressed through 
introverted introspections
once hidden in 
   the hush of hours.

Premium Member Divine Juxtapositions in My Life

Awed joyously while gripped with reverential fear
Blessed to possess eternal life midst this mortal being
Carnal yet granted with divine nature
Damned by sin, but now delivered through the Saviour...
     That's my status since I came* to my compassionate Redeemer!

Everlasting freedom against bondage from worldliness
Flight yon firmament, bidding farewell to grave's forlorn
Grace enjoyed as guilt smitten with forgiveness
Hoisted toward heaven, escaping wrath of hell...
   That's my victorious future assured by my compassionate God!

Illumined, inspired by Scriptures to be compassionate
Jubilant faith beholds hopelessness turning vibrantly radiant
Kingdom of the Lord draws nigh to the heart midst ministry pursuits
Love in its verity conquers selfishness-subtlety through pardons' purity
   That's my commitment in serving my compassionate Lord!

Miracles not myth, as well as mercy of the Almighty magnify trust-momentum
Nourishing spirituality famished by skepticism, doubt and unbelief
Only in the Omnipotent Creator can my nothingness find great value
Precious am I in His sight who is a worthless worm, sans His priceless blood
Quitting not to become compassionate in sharing His love... 
   That's my perspective of who am I today since Christ came to my heart!

Isaiah 55:1 “Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.”

Premium Member ANOTHER SYNDROME LIE

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?!

Let us not be disillusioned and disrespected unto ourselves
And our Ancestors who have done so much over the centuries
To ensure that our slave-like conditions would become less and less;
Though we’re not where we wish to be here, we’re not where we once were:-

Thus, let us no longer be victims of this phase of the Oppressor Syndrome;
Rather, let us remain on the battlefield of the Lord in our liberation struggle:-
As Marley has reminded us...let’s emancipate ourselves from mental slavery;
Liberating our minds from the Oppressor Syndrome’s infecting self-destruction:-

Know this: the more we bring about changes continuing our liberation struggle,
The lesser becomes the necessary liberating work for succeeding younger generations; 
Let renewed awareness awaken us to the absurdity of change keeping things the same;
Rather, in the face of adversity, let's be resilient, and journey onward in grateful hope:- 


P.S.  Indeed, more could be said; but has not the point been made?!
         In liberating our minds from the Syndrome, so will we be liberated
         from its oppression:-

Once 'pon a poetess

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 amber acrostic.

Under wakening oaks
blooming fuchsia fairytales
and coral morganites 
of swallowing solitude,
I weave autumn aventurines 
of the daring
despicable and an
endearing enigma 
of woeful
belladonna blues. 
Whilst stirring up wrinkled 
jasper jupiters of 
milky ways in
weary kaleidoscopic
eyes of a moon 
pearled blanket,
my honeyed haikus
roar a beryl spar against 
virtuoso villanelles
for mystical 
shimmering spotlights
in a tourmaline moon dance~    

Along sapphire sonnets 
of idealized introspection
gurgling inside woe
casting whirls, 
I ponder of whom is 
able to grasp iridescent
chords of my sodalite soul
as well as the vocal
verses of 
cinder cinquains~
For my soaked stanzas
of jade juxtapositions
are topaz tattoos
of pleasant peridots
of every trickling tear; 
yet to remain wiped away.

In an heart sickened
topia of lilt lilacs 
and magnificent miracles,
I forsooth you'll discover
a poetess' daffodil dreams
wrapped in blankets of 
moonstone metaphors~
Waltzing under
whimsical wisteria in
lavender ballrooms 
of gazing serenity sestinas,
I wonder the bliss 
of lolite lagoons
in alluring dreams 
an elysian ear shall
be lent to the 
ode oasis of my
soft hesitant herald heart 
and that vexed verses 
of sojourned stanzas 
will be understood.
