Again And Again

AGAIN AND AGAIN

Dreams faded like the shadow!
The tears soaked my long-sleeve
The blood drop from my ears
Like the honey shading from the beehive
The stone striped me 
       “Again And Again”

Brothers and sisters passes!
The orphans outnumber the shelters
The domicile floods the widows
The life encounter roadblocks
And the sorrow takes the dominion
    “Again And Again”

The sun started to shine8
I pushed my self from bed
Ready to start a new day
Although sleep was so sweet
I didn’t hold back until I was out
        “Again And Again”

The sun shone brightly
I found my self not alone
But in a team with courage and passion
To chase the intruder who
Robes the lives of our neighbors
       “Again And Again”

Ooh! The darkness covered the eyes of our people
By the first time we knocked their doors
It was hard to be accepted
Considering us as members of devil
We kept our focus to open their eyes
         “Again And Again”


We came up with the idea to kick the intruder
ABCD played the great role
The team added up the duty
Outreaches to kill the root
The kids were responsive 
      “Again And Again”

Our voices chased the intruder
And the darkness started to vanish
My dreams were back as before
The neighbors captured the tips
And started to practice
        “Again And Again”

Many troops were formed
Ready to fight the existing war
The battle is so tough to leave on hands of minority
The knowledge will be the armor for each
 And SRHR as our banner, the hope will touch each
                 “Again And Again”

Premium Member The Moonlit Carousel

I. Partial Eclipse

The carousel broke loudly.
We made them laugh.
We made them love.

II. Total Eclipse

If you want passion:
The un-filtered wild joy of heaven and the sacred warming gold,
Seek no more:
Our afterlife is in the herelife,
An unsanctifying rim of coexistence,
A love unvarnished,
Uncleansed,
Sloppy like a junk-filled pick-up,
A warm, hard smile,
The soft, woven kiss,
The thoughtful eye-brow,
The tickle of a snowflake,
The fading pause of the ever un-thoughted pulse
And the fluid motion
We gave no name
In our readiness of love.
We sink to be.
We think to be.
So grow and glow and grow and glow again
In the round and round and round of the carousel we go
For a new moon has arrived
To be shone upon and ever spinning globe.

III. No Moon

The globe
The strobe
The harrowing roads
The blighted, borrowed souls
And I'm tired of poetry, moons, and everything bright.
I wish for a damp cold firmament
In hushing grace with whispering goats and snoring lambs
Where nothing sneezes and nothing aches.
Just the dream-time manger and tired eyes.
The glaze of these images is all I dream for now
As I trek and breathe through wire and meshing
Fighting self against selflessness,
Finding all is greed, the chemical survival,
And love is a feeling we invented to save ourselves.
We will point to the light
But few walk towards it.
We just show others 
Where this silent plume pours outward
Into an endless beaming flood
alit pain and confusion,
A solid rigid ray
As in the absolute fixity of text on stone,
The stone plain and sad, like a tumor on the ground.

Kick it and be sore.
Love it and stay forever.
The carousel broke loudly.
It breaks everyday.
Whether or not we leave or stay.
Love or stray.

I'll do the dishes

If you’re cooking 
I will do the dishes 
If it’s the last thing I do 

Because you’ll fight me 
Kick me out of my own kitchen 
Giggling like kids again 

I’ll do the dishes 
If you cook for me 

I’ll curl up in my corner with a book 
While you’re on shift 
And smile when you come back 

And you will – come back 
To me 
And my kitchen 

Stick on that one song 
'Bout the young kids in love 
From way back when 

The times when we laughed 
Cried-bickered-danced-cared 
The point in life when we decided 
You’ll be the one cooking 

And I’d go get my degree 
You’d go off to be a hero
And I’d wait in the chair you built me 
That rocks just a touch 
Enough to swing a tad 


A smile cracks as you stare at the sight 
I turn the page 
You still there staring 
I feel your gaze 
But I let you stand there 

Knowing eventually you’ll turn 
Towards the kitchen 
Just to yell 
“What you want for dinner?” 
“What I want is to do the damn dishes tonight"

Premium Member Cleansing in Front of the Neighbors

Outside my window, lightening flashes;
Thunder rattles the glass in the window pain;
Dark clouds have turned the day to night
In anticipation of the coming rain.

I kick off my slippers; roll up my pants legs;
Dancing in the rain is my only goal.
Uptight neighbors watch me with disgust
As the rain now cleanses my soul.

Their prying eyes worry me not
I shed all my clothes showing everything that I’ve got.
Let their shrinks come and take me away.

When the sun returns drying me and my world
The soul cleansing comes to an end
I go back inside with nothing to hide 
Waiting for it to rain once again.

Black Sheep Rising

I told the truth, and made some mad
Felt threatened, and told me to stop
Tell me who I am, no they cannot
Control my reality, no they could not

Better the view, way from the top
They see me rise, and I see them fall
I got fed up, and said enough
They criticize, I say shut up

Comparing me, and cannot match
I raise my voice, and they are shocked
Some mocking me, and then I block
They had a say, now it’s my turn

Out of my way, have them kick rocks
Call me black sheep, better than lost
I am the one, and they are pawns
Triggering them, with just one word

If the shoe fits, it’s not my fault
I am now free, I know my worth
The slate is clear, facing the sun
A brand new me, I have transformed.

Premium Member Between Glass and Grass

The sun climbs the glass-faced towers,                          Mist rises from ploughed paddocks.  
Buses exhale diesel into the air,                                        Fresh-turned earth lifts its dark, clean scent.  
Coffee and pastries tumble into the street,                     Dew beads cold along the crushed grass.  
My shoes kick paper from the pavement,                       My boots wake dust from the track.  
A siren threads its needle through traffic,                        A kookaburra cracks the stillness.  
Rain blurs the lines of the streets,                                     Rain wakes the sharp smell of earth.  
Fences divide the street from home,                                Fence lines loosen into distance.  
At night, the city refuses darkness;                                  At night, the stars reclaim the sky.  
I look between the towers for one clear star,                  I look down the road for one clear light.

Premium Member Loves Window

Love feels like it has gone far away
She used to exist everywhere it seems
Now she hides in fear of being used up or let down

Most now, don’t even remember what she feels like

I remember long ago


Love used to have big bright colors 

lightening bugs would soar through the night sky
with dancing white beams that glowed in the dark 

four leaf clovers would spring from green pines of grass 
but would ever elude being found and plucked 
by those wanting a taste of its Irish good luck

floral beach balls and pink rubber kick balls were the center of summers delight 

camp fire girls adorned navy blue vests and strutted proudly holding red white and blue flags down main street on Memorial Day 

lazy polka dot burnt orange black lady bugs 
would sleep under the sun 
waiting to be scooped up 

each child hoping to find the lady 
with the most dots
to win the game
 
cotton candy colored May Day dances held in the public-school yard always on the hottest and sunniest day of the year 

each student excited about dressing up in colorful garbs from different cultures around the world

Love was innocent then...


Love had the best aromas too
 
tide detergent, vanilla extract 
talcum powder, wonder bread 
sweet potato pie 
hot dogs on toasted rolls at the public pool 
Chanel #5 on Church Sundays 
lots of Chanel #5


Love had the most wonderful sounds
 
the rustle of fall leaves under your feet 
the crunch of plastic sofa covers at grandma’s house
sitting on the porch listening to night crickets on dad’s lap 

Maybe love is actually still here
Waiting for us to love her back
She has not been treated well lately

I hope that she will give us all another chance

And come back soon

Hopefully this time 

She will stay

Premium Member Be Joyfully You

My advice is easy, and fun to do
Encourage everyone you see.
Show them the possibility of pure happiness
By joyfully being yourself

Hang out with your tribe
It may not be your family
That is okay; some of us have created a new one
And believe me, they are wonderful!

Go places you have always wanted to go.
Put yourself out there – your real self,
Not the “status quo” might accept you self.
Leave that one at home under a bed

Better yet – put that one in a box and toss it over a bridge
Because you are now joyfully being yourself
In everything you do. Every word you utter
Every sentence you write. You are being true to you.

Sure, some people will not accept it.
Here is a key point – you do not have to kick them to the curb
But ignore their eye roll.  
Better yet, tell them it hurt you.

If they truly care about you, they will apologize and learn from it.
If they do not care, it is time you moved on.
Sure, they might be related, but they are not “family”.
Family is the people who love watching you be joyfully you

Go out there and dance you dance, sing your song
Spin circles, jump in mud puddles, howl at the moon
Life is too short to do anything except one thing….
Be joyfully and utterly you.

Premium Member The Happy Asp

Truth is a mouthful of blood -spit upon a Persian rug.
A kick to the balls in the middle of the sweetest dream.
Karma doesn't stop gnawing until the soul's licked clean.
And what of our far-off God -that mysterious golden being.
Stirring devils into our kettle since we were mustard seeds. 

Everyone thinks of offing themselves from time to time.
Usually when we're running low on honey and wine. 
When mad horses trample over our parched lives.
Something brings most back from the frothy brink.
Maybe it's the bouncing star baby sleeping in the crib.
Or the dirty plunger when it finally frees up the sink.

You may as well dance because it's more painful to crawl.
Kiss a stranger on the mouth, have yourself a ball.
But don't bounce the ball off the devil's burning grass.
Or he just may kick over your little white picket fence. 
And light up your fake happy little a$$.

Premium Member Kick Up Yer Heels

Cock-a-doodle-doo! Time is come for you 
to raise yer head, get out of bed.
Strum a note or two.

If you cain’t strum, pick and grin – hum a lick.
Enjoy the fun till ‘morrow come. 
Buzz a note or two.

If you cain’t hum, blow and suck – mount a show.
Play yer juice harp, B flat C sharp.
Spit a tune or two.

If you cain’t blow tune, howl at the full moon.
Pick a cowgirl – turn, twist, and twirl.
Make them girls swoon.

Laid out with dry cows, gotta git up – rouse
You ain’t home yet, ain’t lost yer bet.
Dodged them hoosegows!

Time to saddle up, stop for a li’l cup.
Coffin varnish – insides tarnish –
Feel like a pup.

A day for hard work, not somethin’ to shirk.
Head Texas big, hitchin’ the rig.
Kick’n heels hurts!
