It can even be misconstrued as ... A.I.
Mayhaps 'Creation', hm ... read it again.
I know Adam was chosen to lead off in that direction and all those after him--and nobody said stop, not even after the planet Mars, a name attributed a deity.
Jerusalem grant stemmed
Bethlehem be condemned
What kind of God He is
having no teachers His
hm?
The shores of Galilee
sea Peter faith fell he
Galilee be Dead Sea
Peter sunk not to be
A Calvinist earn claim
Horeb like Sinai same
Divergence flanks said he
East West faces they'd be
Eden's Garden not His
we post-label purpose
God name no Earth places
Termed from human races
HOMOPHONE RHYME STYLE TRIAL
In shining armor I am here, YES, your hero knight
Rushing to your rescue anon, day or night
With my mighty steed, Henry, I’ll come crash down the gate
Watch it when you mount him, he’s got a funny gait
I’ll save you from the tower living on a tiny little cot
Jump into my arms and I by my troth you will be caught
I know last time I tried to catch you I may have missed
But alas, it was so foggy, I could not see past the mist
I’ll do better next time, or mayhaps I’ll bring a ladder
You can trust the former, even if you choose the latter
You needn’t be so offended to make me and Henry wait
I only asked for his sake if you’d gained a little weight
I snuck past enemy lines to find you, slid down the castle chute
Sorry if I got a little nervous when the guards began to shoot
It was only a potato gun, I still should not have ducked
Or pushed you backwards onto Henry waiting underneath the duct
I’ll free you always, whether from monsters or an evil reign
As long as it’s nice weather, Henry doesn’t like the rain
That dragon doesn’t stand a chance, through the air I flew
Well, I was going to… but I threw up, I had the flu
I was going to bellow, “Beshrew thee!” but my voice was a bit hoarse
I really am Prince Charming, just with a temperamental horse
My apologies he ate your hair, he thought it was hay in your braid
It’s possible he’s an ass, as nay, he doesn’t neigh, but hey, he brayed?

Let a moment be left for you Sir Knight, to cautiously consider
The consequence to face till the curse be lifted one day, forever”
{Once again, is the Gods in profound trickery to undermine
Us as mortals to suffer their lain path of in-comprehensive time
In order to ensave Alkaiya must I be in bond with her soul
To travel together and to battle as individuals to each a role
However, with the known fact to embrace lies the least of fear
Rather, it’s the significance of love never to be… is to tear
After all this time… when everything seems to be in place
The drastic turn has to unfold for yet another peril to face
With thoughts of the promised peace to The Ancients in one hand
Or to love and share a death with nothing else to matter of when?
I spared a thought for a while, looking at Alkaiya once more
And with Twit looking upon me, I carried her into the ascendancy hall}
“Needless to say, I already knew what you have in mind
Upon risk with which to face, I shall nay harass to remind
Be it so… mayhaps of words I should and will offer in solace
Conceptualise yourself to be in hearty bonds with her at the best
There is to be no other who can be as close in spiritual essence
Though nay to be in love, there is more to be in existence
Though a healer I’m engifted to be in my time to serve
I do make sense of what it beholds to be… to be in love
It never is of your choosing to choose the sparse choices of choice
Only to accept the path of Heaven with us manipulated as toys
Now, one may lie down as still beside the Mistress of War
For the coming of dawn, will Alkaiya be life and well as recall
Do not trouble yourself with affection, Knight of the Word
More important matters are to be dealt with, of fate be heard
Or mayhaps you can live in hope for the curse be one day cured
And mayhaps then, can love be declared with a bond truly pure”
Ganesh in the Deeply Dark (Dawn)
I sit, sullen
in this hot tub,
grown warm.
Here, I sit,
grown cold,
grown old.
The stars seem dim,
though neatly
arranged.
The dead leaves,
having leached their
green, beseeched their
sun-god, having breeched
their tip-top, up top, paraSol-top,
having reached the high holy Pale Blue,
having pleached in greens, having bleached
those same greens, having (perhaps mayhaps perhaps)
over-
reached,
fall silently around me.
Joining my tears in
filling this bath.
The light, warily
illumines the manuscript
sky.
Confronting my dark.
I can’t read these stars.
I can’t know my Way,
my Fate.
They say that if an elephant
could speak, we’d still
not understand her.
Wittgenstein’s lion.
The elephant isn’t.
The elephant is...
mine.

Contemporary Sonnet
Hot off the press, 'tis a rhyme of some kind,
a form that's advanced hundreds of years old,
hearts made it all the rage as love entwined,
game-changing for the muted, words of gold.
In full swing appearance stretches statements,
staunch vowels-consonants chime wondrously,
the construction on stanzas spreads segments,
three quatrains plus, distinct couplet, smoothly.
Completely concerned engaging rhyme scheme,
three mayhaps four amidst Milton scores whole,
though, moreover, there's Hopkins curtal theme,
although this well-known method leads the poll.
Functioning nameless skilled to be renowned,
Supporting heart and soul get off the ground.

A Brian Strand 1 to 14 line
~~Brian Strand: Judged 2021 August 11
This would be just prior to circa 2000. I'm guessing it's closer to the 80s, but my memory fails, The Philippines was one of three Southeast Asiatic island nations that I went to with my missionary mother on three separate trips.
Arrived in Manila at night,
Marcos was still in power,
and Manila's power was not cooperating quite a bit
--frequent blackouts.
It's hot there melting in the bayan tree shade in Olongopo.
I tagged along with my cousins who live in Dagupan, Pagansinan
--their MilkFish is to die for!!!!!
Stayed in a hotel in Baguio very nice tourist area a little snow there
--bit of a contrast.
Visited with more cousins (same family w/Dagupan)
in Baccarat, Ilocos Norte.
Their Filipino dad (d. 101 y.o.) married my Hawaiian cousin (d. 80 y.o.),
and they've both passed now,
but half of their family lives in The Philippines and the other half in Hawaii.
Mom's here, so heading back to Manila.
They have these massive shopping malls that are built there in Manila
just so that you lose your mom.
Flying south to Zamboanga,
for the tail-end of the mission,
[not a thing I want to add here]
I agree,
Pearl of the Orient,
mayhaps a bit biased
but my family there are real gems to me.
Non-Existence and its elementary properties as I move about freely as you can plainly see
Matter is a tangible entity: meaning that it can be physically handled making it manageable -OR- an entity that can be felt, visually, to sensibility, to the advent of emotional is established once again, mayhaps not visibly, but emphasis sways in harmonic agreement ... EMOTIONAL INVOLVEMENT
No ... Non,
are both definitive factors of negativity
undertones
The use of simple reverse psychology
synergies
So we venture the realm
of possibilities
I am a former me
I am a nonentity
A human being
No longer seen
I can be anything
I am an entity
Not a void nor empty
Unless I choose to be
Imagine a world I d where you do not exist.
I am reduced to a you
I am here to amuse
me, myself, whate'er
I am that I am
But for trice I am now
Simply a pronoun
A person I don't belong
It's based on a premise
That I had existence
I can be a tree
Or a leaf on it
Or bee tussling
About or sitting
On a rock or the rock
Tumbling down stream
Just how it'd felt for the many
Unlike me who never
Was another entity
Let alone tossed
Rocky stream like of
Those I can see whose
Numbers are to great
To count but whate'er
I want to be a part
of a rock in a stream.
I think tomorrow
I'll be a bird
I soar high up
And dive into the sea
And swim like a fishy me
Marvel novel this
Non entity
To be anything
And everything almost...
Omniscient being.
Have you ever heard a crow caw in the dead of night
Never the thought crossed my mind until such was my plight
In the bright of the light I saw vast more than one
Nary my delight when their numbers sent me shook to stun
Pondered to run but when said and done everyone knows
That you don’t mess around with a murder of crows.
I thought mayhaps I’ve had my fill of bad omen
But my foes superior cousin flew down more than ten
Yet again I comprehend they represent a prophecy
Not sure what this vocal unkindness has to do with me
Still I see the knowledge be in my mind where it’s graven
There is no safe haven, in a conspiracy of ravens.
Swiftly I flee afore a new plague rains down
The worst was yet to arrive to this cursed, sleepy town
I frown to find myself betwixt these predators absurd
My own personal horror movie version of the birds
Swooping and warbling, they sculp a shadow in the skies
Really just a nuisance… a gulp of magpies. :S
For the Magpies that have invaded my backyard tree....
You've won this time........

Stay or you will die
Stay or I will die
Can you not see we give each other life?
Winter is near
The demons will need warmth
The squirrels say they spawn from hell
Perhaps that's why they cannot survive without our heat.
I digress,
If more of you leave, I'll be sure to standout
Have I ever mistreated you and your brethren
Do I disgust you so much that you'd choose death over my company?
Stay till summer, then you can leave
Quiet down,
I hear the demon's cackle
Stay or he'll take my life
He's got an axe, mayhaps he won't notice that I'm dry
Do not approach me you demon
Produce your own heat
Cut me down now but I shall live on
Who needs leaves?
My children have developed roots
I shall live on!
