I Desire To Die Hard

Betrothed, 
Please don't come to the college campus 
In a rosy costume like a blooming red rose,
I feel bad.
Don't move on  the corridors  with your swan walks 
Being surrounded by your friends 
Like a Moghul princess, I feel bad.

Betrothed, 
Forming whirlpools in your blush red cheek
Nodding red jaw and sharp tongue 
Waving snow white slim hands 
Please don't tiptoe on the yard 
Like strings playing on the guitar 
My heart pounds, pebbles create longitudinal waves 
in my chest pond.,water tremble within 
I feel sad.

Betrothed, 
During tiffin hour  sitting in the common room
Don't  unbraid your long black hair 
Like Radha ilike a naughty rivulet 
The limitless sky may be covered with dark clouds 
All the neon bulbs may go out of order
I don't like to  use simile for you
Where's you, where is the black clouds. 

Betrothed, 
Don't put your two scarlet lips 
in the cup of hot tea in the cafeteria .
The flowery garden of tiny lips may wither 
in the scorching sun.
Thirsty greenery may burn like a  desert. 

I desire to die  hard.¦


Premium Member Pacific Breeze

A quiet reverence prevails 
as prayers are whispered over the sea
where great seabirds take flight
and sails caress the Pacific breeze. 

Ever alert to ocean’s moods
we navigate throughout the day 
sea swells heave from deep to deep
tides and currents have their way. 

A sudden gust of wind creates a thrill
we tack along the Northwest line
the ocean guides with wings that glide
along longitudinal paths sublime. 

Wonder reigns as whitecaps spray
across our bow, a brisk baptism
a spiritual revival of refreshment
aware of life the sea has given. 

Few venture the Pacific, close hull
wrangling ocean’s might with mere sails
seafarer’s saltwater dreams soar 
over the sea and ocean trails.

( A COLLABORATION BY NATASHA L SCRAGG AND ROBERT JAMES LIGUORI )

Aether is the fabric of our universe -
Tiny granules that transfer energy
In the form of waves ~~~
This goes on unseen constantly!

It propagates light and other waves,
Longitudinal and transverse
( Or electromagnetic )
Right across the universe!

Aether stretches far beyond
The laws of physiology!
Did you know that Aether
Is also a god in Greek Mythology?

In chemistry, it is flammable.
It is used as an anaesthetic.
It's a solvent used in industrial processes -
Google it ~ this knowledge is authentic!

But at the same time,
It's a word that is seldom heard.
Most people have better luck
Deciphering the songs of a bird!

But today,  ' Aether ' was on my list,
To master and triumph,
As if it was a fifth wish!

Oh, the gravity of this situation,
Like cosmic forces similar to Shakti,
I feel that I have learned so much!
Should I be yelling out,  ' Yahtzee! ' ?

The king of the classical elements,
Earth, Air, Water and Fire ~~~
Aether bends and amends our universe,
To be the most desired!

A Bonanza of Opportunities Went Up In Gun Smoke

As if in a decades long
     somnambulant trance
     for majority of years
     I finally awoke,
three score minus
     one orbitz tracked 'round el sol
     by this human drone,
a custom made incognito

     stitched while in utero
     yeah... my birthday suit mask
     disguised this bloke
yet plainly visible, aye donned
     a permanent cloak
always fitted me skin
     tight easily permitting
     ingress and egress okey doak

majority of mein kempf
     ambivalent about (no...no...no...
     despised) self as
     apathetic behavior did evoke,
yet slip out from
     under the Harris tweed,
     Scottish door Matt,
     parental tender caring folk

now, such indifference,
     whether dead or alive,
     tummy this thinking haint write
especially nearing quotidian,
     the terminus twilight
     of existential parabola
     fifty nine submucous cleft palate
     nasal note more'n slight

     chalked up to biochemically, right
     hermetically, and neurologically quite,
though not profoundly disabled,
     a riddled quirky
     psycho-social plight,
(cultivating an unhealthy
     absent self esteem inferior complex)
     I exhibited half

     hearted feeble feints
     to muster willpower morning till night
oft times nobody home,
     and nary boot faint light
doth shine on me
     (feeling comfortably numb),
     a puny white knight er
     rather pawn on chess

     board of life with 20/20 insight
while standing at a paltry
     just shy of seventy
     two inches in height
shortchanging latitudinal longitudinal
     maximum parameters to attain
but more critically, detrimentally,
     emotionally constitutes current bane

analogous to Atlas
     hold the world
     did more than force him to crane
his neck, but imposed
     a global estuarial drain
as all the seven seas underwent
     gravitational pull that's
     the best aye can explain

oh...but such fiction a mythological sling
shot across the bow civilization
     the metaphorical resonance
     pertains to me, and doth ring
real asper millstone over bearing
worth repeating here,
no matter mentioned in previous poems
     bitterness of mine despairingly cathartically airing.
