Premium Member Imposed Unemployment

These matters of imposed sequestration,
home health quarantine,
residential segregation,
safety zone re-education

Can also become
contemplative solitude
growing sacred mindfulness,
healthy wealth revision, 
2020 wealth of health
bicameral precision,
monoculturing capitalist rescission,
dipolar non-division;

Social,
political,
economic communication
significantly emerge from personal preference
but also west-hemisphere patriarchal enculturation
no different than propaganda
if delivered with both left and right-hemisphere
collusion intent,
unnaturally sinister,
calculating desecration,
the stuff of deep state
and dark conspiracy theories

Either True or False
or both/and complexly
ego/eco-bilaterally ambiguous,
subtle,
nuanced thought with unpolarized feelings
for interior nurtured spiritual intention
and exterior nutritional natural extension,

Discernment of which solitary seeds
and subterranean root systems are health watered
and wealth weeded,

And which are treated like worthless weeds,
not to be watered with contentment,
fed with commitment,
nourished for cooperative values,
cherished within eco-political futures,
compassioned.

This weediness of ego-neediness
prays for non-preying return
to ecosystemic communal fullness.

Premium Member Her Elegance Remains

Her tender, delicate limbs
                rivaled a young Magnolia
Her every move, a nuanced sway
     Oh, the glory of youth
                    in its sympathetic day

As age and circumstance
                  have stayed her dance,
     her elegance remains
There’s still the lilt of childlike song
     gracing spoken word
And eyes of deep, expressive blue,
        still tell you, you’ve been heard

And though, her humbled stature bears
     the scar of broken stride
and wheels of fashioned metal
              now her slippers have decried, 
the beauty of her fragile spirit
                  still lives

Premium Member A Poem From the Unknown

I observe palls of leaves, drifting on the wind 
       Compelling me to write, but my page keeps going limp
            Fraying along straight edges, curling into crimp,
        Nuanced in nature, daintiest touch rebuffs my whims

           Thoughts become hesitant, so readily demurred 
         I scribble tenuous nothings, reflecting absent words 
          Cant tell which is moving, the leaves or my world 
           Seemingly fluxed together, synchronicity bestirs 

        Impossible to measure, let alone describe this scene 
        Small eddies all around me, vortex on grasses green,
       As I look upon the tumult, my imagination reconvenes
         Ink begins flowing again, and words start to scream 

             Disenfranchisement over, now feeling overjoyed 
           Balance is restored, the moment remains unspoiled
             I look down at my sheet of paper, if only to recoil 
        Not in horror! Amazement, this little poem self compiled.

Premium Member Red Rooster's Point of View

Julian and Joan were married, just as glitter is joined to crystal sun.
Julian was a famous violinist, like redbirds making music, in season.

Joan had a variety of elegant shoes. Of them, she was rightly proud.
Like seagulls of lakes and sky, whom liberty makes scream out loud!

The Halls were very busy people, like smoky shadows, ever moving;
And mornings were most hectic, like windblown petals, disapproving.

Flowering ferns graced their country house, when old friends came;
For a face-to-face is much finer, than wondering what love became.

Farmers went to frolicsome fairs, when firecracker family popped in;
Like fad future in a fascinator, carrying memories of way back when.

The Halls lived in the house of colors, like the kaleidoscope, spinning.
Days were entranced by hues and beauty, like a rainbow reminiscing.

Sabotaged shasta daisies bowed, while gilded, silver raindrops jingled,
On the street of jade, turning seasons, of red Mars and stars, mingled.

Neighbors noted navy blue skies, when a nuanced sun, sank in rubies;
While they'd enjoy a nightly snack, or watch the never-ending movie.

'Skeleton glass warriors' guarded the greenhouse, of a fragrant June;
As 'Biltmore's ballgown' plants were admired, beneath the new moon.

'Turquoise green cockscomb' plants strutted, in nature's pretty vanity;
And 'rainbow pampas grass' showed after storm, delighting humanity!

One particolored, exceptionally hectic sunrise, the Halls were in a tizzy.
Joan had lost a favorite shoe, and Julian's bow was missing. Such a pity!

They couldn't find the items! Julian left for rehearsals, very frustrated.
Joan left for her boutique. Yet, gold sun'd soon return, when motivated.

After they both had gone, the first butterscotch rays, indeed, appeared;
And their talking rooster had much to say, like hues, after mist cleared!

'Cock a doodle doo!
My dame has lost her shoe,
My master lost his fiddling stick;
And doesn't know what to do
And doesn't know what to do.'

Premium Member Singing Soul Strong

Billie Holiday said
The artist of soul never sings a song the same way twice,
the artist never sings the same song twice.

This sounds good and right to me,
as soul artists and lovers, 
great optimally effective researchers and scientists and communicators,
never live a day,
a felt relationship,
a poem,
a dance,
a sacred ritual or tradition
the same way twice.

As we learn to stay within our zones of synergy,
we can never go quite back to yesterday again
because we live through this fluid imagination
and experiential place
where life's co-relational time
flows a bubbling nuanced inside/outside integrating stream
never organically sung as mere mechanized repeat,
each moment learning now's renewing voice
from soul's most resonant
remembering 
strong-hearted
full-minded
passion-embodied space.

Soul sings inside songs 
of out-streaming full-hearted 
improvising
synchronizing voice.

Premium Member To the Untrained Eye

Pearlescent the corneal reflection, on a blind mans eyes 
orbs of obscurity, belie a defunct projection of screens 
for Eventide is ever present, nuanced beside a braille directory
his mind’s focused on Feral senses, gut instincts, acuity 
knowledge of darkness, has built its own safe haven
Plumb lines are useless, if life’s following a ball of string

the Thrum of a moths wings, leads him to the window 
fingertips sense the drapes, yet another Crimped reality 
fly away little creature, go find your own darkness 
you don’t want to be trapped in here with me
with a bittersweet Tang of sadness, the moth is released 
Howling into the distance, on a gentle summers breeze

Premium Member Crushed

To Lesley do  I owe a big debt
No more over verse will I ever  sweat
Reading her nuanced advice between the lines
My motivation  to versify  sharply declines
It has become clear to me that my rotten rhyme
Is so very close to being a humanitarian crime.

So,Ms Duncan,to you must I convey my thanks
That no longer will I invest in poetry banks.
Now must I banish my obsession with a final farewell
And consign all future thoughts of poetry to the fires of hell.

Without me,may all you genuine  poets  flourish
And your love of poetry  always and ever nourish.
With a truly  sad heart I do lay down my pen
And I will not demean Parnassus ever again

And yet who can ever be  fully sure and rightly  know 
When the Pierian spring through one will once again flow?

Premium Member Delving Into the Depth of Silence

When golden starlight abandons darkened skies
and halcyon silence greets the paling of dawn...
that's when I am able to solemnly contemplate
my awakened sentiments in tranquil solitude.
Before the world awakens as if in a rendezvous,
I linger amidst an interlude, a quiescent tryst.

When darkness fades to aurorean glints,
I witness the painting of a nuanced murk.
There, upon the birth of the sun's horizon
is brushed a blended mural in pastel tints
slowly rising from the gently rippled sea.
On a raft of serenity, I find myself afloat,
eyelids closed but able to see more clearly
than when they unfold to bustling scenes.
I am serene in the placid hush of daybreak,
listening to the truth of life's one true purpose.

Too often we scurry as ants in hurried moments.
In blurred visions my eyes behold the world's
noises pelting my ears like tympany drums
obscuring significant thoughts from my mind
until I could make no pertinent sense of it.
But silence explains everything in vivid detail.
It enlightens me, leading me into a quiet realm
where I am in harmony with peaceful silence
and filled with an overwhelming sense of stillness
that delves deeper than any sound could proffer.

Premium Member Whispers of our soul

“Does the universe really rehearse,
emotes of heart before penning love’s verse?”
      ~ quote by poet


It had all makings of a masterpiece,
nuanced right down to the smallest detail
but the flow of symbols brought forth no peace,
to afterglow trailing the comet’s tail,
so fake adornments needed to decrease,
else maze of metaphors would make taste stale.

Soft sounds of silence, sparking like stardust,
bypassed mind and spoke directly to heart,
etching thereon light strobes, love ousting lust,
seeing thereby patterns of old depart,
wooing the void, in time gaining its trust,
that divine consciousness, then inks its art.

How may laboured breathing weave words of love,
when all save man know, grace flows from above?
