She


For one, I am small and increase the body of reverse
As love and hate enter space and time without poles
The largeness of sleep and dimensional reality
Going into a law of consistent inconsistencies
Raw the cost never leaves into laughter
By his own facts which enlist varied gods
Sex is the validation unto which is declaration
To make intent stronger and mind no speak into the certainty
Twisting and turning where skills are refused
War seems skill
War seems knowledge
Also fight
Yet experience makes cry and far as you run
The earth makes sure of variation
To watch through the glass
By expectancy and obliterate
It has been the patriot to call love
So the squeeze will leave as rendered outside of the king
Available as throwing the towel in
Because the lights among us would offer rationale
As tossing in self sacrifice is the magnified gain
Old friends make more dinner in adverse
Guessing without a train nails part
Mission would herald the boarding bite so clear


Premium Member Wherefore, Whereas, Henceforth

Wherefore, Whereas, Henceforth


Whereas the wherefores and hereins
obliterate beginnings without ends
redefine how “fine” relates to “print”
misunderstanding - “that’s not what it meant”  

Therefore it is with great expense
whereas the document just made no sense
we’ll bill you as the tiny type disclaimer
says there’s no way you can blame her

Hereafter you’ll be known as party “A’
the one it says is gonna hafta pay
until your residence is just a box
Ah, the price one pays for tangling with a fox

Alas, it seems, your friends could not sustain
the agony of listening to your pain
Henceforth, it seems that you are on your own
wherefore art thou now, Oh Romeo

Premium Member Contemplation Is a Heartfelt Thing

On wings of twilight her hopes flew away
As day eagerly swam into night
Simply had not been a wonderful day
Stars in the sky were a glorious sight
Filling ethereal heavens completely
Showing her optimism so sweetly
Feelings of pure love were in the air
Could she forgive herself? Would she dare?
Evil doubts within her soul began to ring.
Her emotions were not easy to share
Contemplation is a heartfelt thing.

She sat by river on the south side bay
Figuring out how to make angry thoughts right
Gentle ideas escaping for sighs far away
Glowing in her dendrites, bits but so bright.
Plugging in gaps ever so casual and neatly,
In a manner as to not defeat thee,
Yes she had been betrayed, flayed full bare.
Could she release this anger now? Could she dare?
She had been the victim of a masochist’s fling
This humiliation she was not ready to share.
Contemplation is a heartfelt thing. 

Gathered sorrowful ideas in a unique new way.
Determined to obliterate the blight.
Exploded with truth, mighty pen had its say.
She wrote down sad feelings into the night.
Enjoying her perch down by the sea,
And shade of a tiny bonsai tree,
Self feelings smiled, she remembered to care.
She had been lured to an evil one’s lair.
Feelings of worthlessness began to sing.
Forgiveness of self is now parading in air.
Contemplation is a heartfelt thing.

Joined momentarily by a fat hopping blue jay,
She knew what she had penned was amazingly right.
She reveled in daylight sun’s prettiest ray.
Watching the jay ‘til he flew out of sight.
Feeling this instant she was at long last free.
Absolved of blame by God’s glorious sea.
As she wrote it down and began to share,
Her heart was lifted by daybreak’s hopeful air.
Doubts flung out by a David’s giant sling,
Writing was cathartic, easy to bear.
Contemplation is a heartfelt thing.

With a hidey ho and a hey, hey, hey,
She followed her bliss with all of its might.
Her words of truth were now in full display.
She knew she would sleep better that night.
Feelings of relief had overcome thee.
She recovered her soul life down by the sea.
The rest of her life seemed more than a bit fair.
For herself, she again started to truly care.
Warm heart full of hope began to sing.
Possibility of true love now in the air.
Contemplation is a heartfelt thing.

Oh God

God almighty of generations all,
who did witness great empires rise and fall.
We gladly wait for thy eternal reign,
when saints martyred will beam with smiles unfeigned.

God immortal of centuries ageless,
whose dexterity carved our global ball.
When will thy saints the new earth inherit?
where conduct is guided by thy spirit.

God universal of all earth's races,
who ingeniously made different faces.
We anxiously wait for contempt to cease
in our world of disdain and fragile peace.

God magnanimous of fields succulent,
who buried riches in lands opulent.
We thy loyal flock seek living water,
help us oh, Lord thy great laws to master.

God the merciful of love undeserved,
who through Christ the entire human race served.
Mercifully hear us thy servants plead.
Help us obliterate each carnal misdeed.

Post-Its

Post-its, coat the
Brain I keep controlling 
sticking to my skull 
Without holding their notice 
Maybe I have spiraled out of focus
Leaving all my thoughts to obliterate my homage 
It's really you on my mind 
Your carving words Into my eyes 
Leaving notes on my spine 
As I gash into my thighs 
It’s really you on my mind
I scribbled nonsense on your veins 
You doodled through my tangled mane 
As the pages ripped 
Between words and skits 
Our seats became too distance
Too far to send our visions 
Of the present we desired and the past we wished to admire 
etched on crumpled stained paper that was soon to be waste  
Sprawled across an abandoned place that was meant to house the unworthy and the disgraced

Two hundred fatalities, hundred more to die, 
The number keeps growing. 
unbridled guns in the hands of sadistic cops, 
another victim on choke hold.
he is not of their coat,
no need for the court.
we go there to mourn, 
and “justice”  a mere joke. 
another victim is their statistics, 
they brought their ancestors with guns.
Led them forcefully through the seas, 
They build the place you called home. 
yet murders their children at random, 
do they have another home?
They obliterate history and silence the offspring by murders.  
he knelt his neck to the grave,
he dares his maker for justice, 
A deliberate murder in modern America.
The stretcher was waiting, 
cause they meant to kill him.  
indeed they killed him, 
ensure he died, as he cried helplessly to deaf ears.  
This  is how they kill us in turns, 
And for same  offences by Johnny 
they look the other way. 
Hey Johnny  “stay cool” & stay safe. 
But they snuff his life out. 
Just because his coat is different 
again they killed another, who is next?

Goodnight George Floyd

Premium Member Young Blood

The board- flat, immovable, sterile, arranged for a fun, friendly, relaxing battle till the ultimate death but a few aristocrats. The warzone landscape always unblemished, dry and warm. No rain, no freeze. Often the Generals joke whilst there is slaughter- sipping wine with cheese, distracted by trivialities. And still the battle rages. People of rank die in silence. Yet there is no sign of the carnage like Ypres or Pozieres. Youths, kids, young naïve minds are instructed of best ways to kill, strategies of war. Show no mercy and chuckle, encouraged to obliterate. Bang! 
One, two, three… no… four dead, an excellent sacrifice for our side, we killed one royal. Yes, we are further in their land.
Aha, choose which soldier you want to die. Oops, I didn’t see that coming. Hmmmmmm clever.
Check mate!
Immediately the enemy is decimated, there are two fit, healthy, fully mobile armies facing off once again for a deadly duel. Both Generals happy to face off and continue the murderous rampage.

Earthly Joys

Earthly joys
were felt by this child at play,
let them still be yours today,
to remind you always....
that tomorrow is another day.


Earthly joys
spring forth from new wishes,
to explore another dimension 
with a mind set in determination... 
and should we hold them in our grasps?


Earthly joys
that made my childhood and yours
so exuberant, unable to obliterate them from memories,
sweeter than anything we can't offer or merely improvise... 
why are they more lustrous than sun-rays?


Earthly joys
sustaining that hope that they will last,
to console us when aloness becomes death,
too real for our weakened breath...
retrace them, relive them until they pass.

Premium Member On Seeing Tenderness In Childhood

Very few really tender moments
in my childhood do I find.
My memories abound
with normal things, and also
with happy celebrations,
failures and successes,
good times and bad.

But I recall one day
visiting a man from church.
Inside his small apartment 
my mother took me.
I can’t remember why.
I just recall this elderly white-haired man
waiting on his white-haired wife
with absolute tenderness.

She did not even know him, really.
Alzheimers had claimed her.
But he hovered over her
with the enduring and endearing
patience and love
born from years and years
of companionship and true intimacy
that no disease
can obliterate.

Premium Member Slam the Slam, Shall We

We are all born 
To a world seemingly full of interesting diversity
But why do we slam each other
Instead of accepting and living together
Do we not need each other’s support, sometime? 

When we slam others we forget
We slowly shut the door on ourselves
And stop growing except bloating in size
And wasting precious resources
Which are meant to be shared amongst all humanity.

Each one must grow to mature somehow
And learn to endure the adverse
And the idiosyncrasies of things around 
That change constantly on ground
In a collective effort to blend human needs with nature.

Is anything permanent except history?
So why not make it memorable 
For us and future generations to cherish it
And build newer avenues and rising ever higher
Through cooperation and mutual respect.

We need to knit a grand slam team
Of entire humanity
To go onwards and upwards
Like steel alloyed and put to steam
Whose frames do not corrode easily through time.

Alone we sure fall downwards
And perpetuate the differences
Those obliterate our collective achievements
For creation is difficult to achieve 
But easy to fritter away on triviality.

Slam kills the feelings of care and love
Spreads hatred and scares the dove
Warmth of fellow beings brings succour
Allowing unimaginable feats to occur
So let us slam the slam, shall we?
