Long Minimalistic Poems

My coping method fraught with utmost futility thus...

My professional treatment plan
predicated upon duress in extremis
hence Electroconvulsive therapy,
a last ditch effort I avail
and surrender self qua
to shock the monkey (me)
one (twenty first century)
obstinate bipedal hominid turncoat
optioned,...

downsizing was meant to become
a tool for freedom and devotion
yet it remained a passion unfulfilled
crowded in cherished possessions

they call me a hoarder although 
I prefer to be seen as a
distinguished collector
stylish hunter and gatherer
connoisseur of...

What are mental aberrations when in a deep state of meditation by focusing on rejecting all thoughts and senses, and allowing the body to exist autonomously?

To call them visions is to purely describe the minimalistic...

Though predictability prevails
     pertaining to my life,
     nonetheless a pronounceable zeal
bestirred from writing,
     and reading (no surprise),
     which literary...

Unshakeable groggy state
plagues mein kampf
impossible mission to awaken
this comatose zombie
drugged horror - by potent

self manufactured narcotic -
oppressive tantalizing
nightmares indistinguishable
when supposedly conscious,
eyes cannot differentiate

dusky "reality" from
twilit zoned lifelike slumbers
confused with medication
induced hallucinations ferrying
me to lands unknown

in the absence of a soundtrack to life,
we walk silently,
yelling, screaming, spitting, fighting & dragging each other
through this “nasty, brutish & short”
existence,
without the all-encompassing symphonies of dramatic films,
the eerie minimalistic piano & acute
industrial beats of...

You are a sustained landscape
one that changes only when you smile or frown,
        a fermata, an endless note
something akin to love strung-out,
pulled thin
until it vibrates at the same...

PARPHERNALIA
retrospective
of
an
uexpected
sophistication
risen
   to
prominence
in
  a
burgeoning
    atmosphere

a
generic
   happening
in
    improvised
  fragments
of
instantaneous
    action
yet
unexpected

linear
&
minimalistic
in
simplicity

fascinating
exterior
of
concentrations

collaborative
innovative
pursuits
 of
transformation
confronting
 the surreal

so strange
yet
a
 transient
impetus

accessible
conceptions
of
floating
sensibilities
in
a
rarerified
  outrage

Be not blind
Open your eyes
And see this world for that
Which it is,
A temporary stop upon
A journey through the cosmos

Be not selfish
Open your palms and let the colours
Of good vibes flow
Let them reach everyone else,
Even your...

I try to open myself up some
But then I learn they are not really there
I tell all I feel inside only to recieve an aura of cold air
Loneliness builds inside me, 
I'm numb but somehow I...

Fashion, the fresco of generational passion
keeps pace with the sprint of rushing times.
Like an art-form it makes cleaved impression,
modernity worn even if body contours don’t rhyme.

Vision blank, she cat-walks the fashion track,
dormant desire turns her...

known for having a small
ego, being calm & collected
for the most part &

Lines 1-2:
generally a request,
a plea or a confession rooted in his disregard for his own feelings
/his lack of self-respect;
Lines 3-6:
repeat of the request,
plea or confession from Line 1,
this time with altered details,
causing often a drastic...

METICULOUS
 points
of coincidence
 involving
the
earthly
realm
deservedly
 displayed
as
cryptic
utterances
impossible
 to decipher
 based on circles
segmented
 intersecting
divided
so
precisely
 elegant
&minimalistic
with fine
 distinctions
& variation
in complex
 permutations
segregated
in scintillating

then receding
  in theatrical
spirals

forward

the
