Crows Abscence

Was the purpose of your absence an attempt at causing me pain? 
That crippling feeling, a spider spinning its web inside my mind. 
That arachnid, poisonous, jeers the word space like a handicap. 
That parasitic relationship forms a cloud covering the moonlight, 
A fog that swirls like a whirlpool in your absence. How rapturous  
Your paradox forming a bridge made from our memories. Broken and 
Reshaped they become the foundation to a journey in that sea you 
Created within me. Your withered emotions and fleeting empathy 
were a false proposition of hope only a jester would find funny. 
An exhibition of animosity lies in the silent waves – waiting – 
for our sunset. How beautiful its rays are against the black water;
falling into the abyss, hidden under that rain your pseudo blanket. 
Does the sunrise when you are blind? Does the moon set when
You can’t see the sky? That colorblind man sits there on the beach
Looking in silence. He cannot see his reflection within the water, he 
Stands and walks to its surface. There he finds a crow crippled, limping 
In the ripples where his reflection should be. That psychedelic feeling 
Draws in his drowning breathe, falling into the sea. Paramount to his 
Survival the man drowns, his understanding a paradox in his memory. 

Only he, the crow, remembers the light of the moon. Its pompous shape, 
that transcendent light, a memory to your decay. Only when yellow hits
 the eyes of the crow will that white light fade beyond the thunderstorm. 
He cries to the heavens, yet his speech murmurs under the weight. That 
Black water suffocates his prayer, but he finds comfort in his anonymity.  In 
the presence of absence the crow longs for loss. He who is stolen from 
wishes to be further buried, lost in the waves. That siren sings a fading 
melody back into his ears. His own prayer an anchor tied to his feet, 
 crippled in your memory. Fractured in his own faith, what god heard
 his suffering, his murmurs clots of air in a salty sea; black as the blood 
from the wound you carved out in his chest. What blessing filled
 his misery, that pseudo composition you create is a platter filled 
with the feather of the crow. His words held sweet your grace, 
an ensemble dancing in the mind of the forgotten. in the sea of 
his followers he is Poseidon, yet still the crow sank, anchored in misery.


Evidence of Spirit Part Iv: La Folie Du Renard

An essence heard a heartfelt plea
meek, unconfident, not familiar
"Should I bother anymore? Please guide me."
His words hardly mist....
a response slices the scene
     with the speed of a guillotine.

skittering over the asymmetrical
similarities of a snowy expanse
      a messenger appears

cracks of icy dunes 
produce precarious pawfalls
plaguing the vixen.
venturing further    precisely
she plods over precipices
of ragged protrusions
desperate to achieve the comfort
of a smooth surface.
      
"Where you go is perilous!
I worry for your safety!
It can't be done, you won't survive!"
       ...cried the timid.

Her movement stops on cue
slowly facing the pupil
she teaches in silent syllables
floating on unknown frequencies.

" DAMN YOU NAYSAYER!
I have no time for the likes of you.
Say I won't survive? Come out alive?
I've fought through worse pain
finding sustenance to gain
morsels leaving one inspired
not feeling as if they're mired.
Search within your pores
find where you have hidden yours."

Dumbfounded - the novice stirs restlessly

"Perplexed, I see, you are mon cherie.
Hear what you seek before I flee.

When life's coldness surrounding you
leaves you writhingly wretched
don't feel so desolate and utterly dejected.
Deep inside lies the truth
albeit quite protected.

Bugger those scorning your worth
their eyes glisten shades green.
Stagnantly feeding ego's girth
pompous words - own to preen.

YOU are the Alpha here Jack
there is no need to whine
Condemn the disapproving pack 
let your own light shine

Too much weight put into their drivel
making your inner child snivel
Buck up, put them in their place  
other's ire force them to chase.

This be your nefarious impasse
faux approval merely to fit in        
Always people of that class
saying anything to win

Lastly,
though I've said enough....

It's as you learned when a tyke  
those times you fell off your bike
quit being a ruse
get back to your muse
keep working at what you like!"

Sunset facing her gaze
signals the quest resumed
Her protege audibly sobs 
a simple seven syllable soliloquy stating:

          "Thank you
       I love and miss you!"

    with a whispered    (mom)

Tender tendrils of whispy wind
touch a cheek with a kiss 
and a lasting voiceless return.....
       "Forever, son"

Dream of a Saguaro

Although flowers bloom it’s awkward to say that they are flowers
because they are not flowers, but thorns disguised as yellow pistils 
and stamens surrounded by the petals made of pieces of colorless
paper. Moreover, their fragrance bears no meaning at all because 
they bloom in the night, 

and each time when the scorching sun brands the cactus’ skin 
it cries out loud from the pain of the thorns pierced through 
it’s burning flesh to form renewed skin, 
then, surprised by a heartrending cry, 
the birds flap their wings to fly in the air abandoning the cactus.

However the birds may be, they only are lifeless drones 
flying over a desert. And since they are lifeless, they 
don’t know the meaning of life, and that’s why they only see

the thorny flowers standing open arms in the midst of the desert that is 
filled with ashes of death—nuclear wastes, abandoned poisonous chemical
solutions polluted waters that drive lives to the edge of death.

To the saguaro cactus standing in the midst of man-made miseries, 
nonetheless, dreamed to have an audience with 
the mystic Queen of the Andes, 

and in order for him to fulfill his dream,
to have a long journey toward the south moving along with the sun, 
and then, after crossing the delicate line marked zero,* 
climbing up the Andes for a higher ridge that is higher than the drone. 

And as you go higher the wind starts to rise;
when the wind gets stronger to cut through the skin,
then saguaro’s thorns start to prick its own body from 
loneliness unbearable,  

and that is the time ripe for
the mystic Queen of the Andes to reveal herself 
from the clearing fogs, behind the thick and heavy veil of clouds.

She appears in a dress embellished with tens of thousands of 
not overly extravagant or pompous but graceful flowers that 
bloom centenary. 

She is the tree, immaculate and with inviolable dignity,  
she bears the blooms in the serenity of the high and deep mountain.
 
Today too, the saguaro cactus under scorching sun dreams 
a dream of seeing the elegant Queen of the Andes someday,
even afar it, stands as ever. 

Enveloped in the cloud, though Queen hides her image
she has left her sweet scent behind, 
in the sweet scent she left, the thorn flower saguaro stands
willing to wait another one hundred years to see her again.

The Stranger

Mr Green  moved into a fertile neighbourhood,  the soil felt pleasant  underneath his feet,  and the landscape looked good but right above him, he saw Men with broad shoulders, throwing shades over him, like trees...

Within a while, the atmosphere  turned cold because the friendly temperature  had diminished,  
therefore  eye contacts  became blurry,  for water froze to ice, below zero degrees... 

As winter approached, social activities reproached, even students were forced to stay back home, regardless the payment 
of their tuition  fees,

 Green loved the chill of summer,  but now in the absence of the Sun, he began shedding tears in relieve indoors, as he craved for love as warm as a cuddle, while praying relentlessly without seizing, for a new season, most nights on his knees,

afterwards he  contemplated to leave that branch of the city back to his grass roots, considering that, his new house felt even colder because the roof was made up of a thatch of leaves, detached together by his pompous, shady neighbours,  who wouldn't agree to disagree,

He was young,  strong and full of  life, not scared of change for he was quite adventurous,  lived in several places, among diverse races, to the point that he had lost count of faces, most of whom he might never see,

Somewhere along the way, in pursuit of destiny,  his emotions drowned in a certain storm that occurred on a wave length across seven seas, while he was travelling to acquire knowledge in exposure, over sees,

so he decided to move on in one peace, not out of fear but due to the fact that, his brilliance always broke the hearts of his dark surroundings into tiny,  envious pieces and more also, if a fight sprouts  out in the woods,  who would be the referee?,

Finally,  he sacrificed his pride by casting down his crown, then gave away his time into memory lane,
 without requesting for a dime from his brief experience while  leaving among strangers who encompassed him like bees,

hence he braced himself up knowing that, being different was not a crime, then booked a flight scheduled to depart at noon by three,

Thereafter folded his Green sleeves,
 put some ripe fruits and a jar of fresh milk, into his travelling bag and ventured into nature,  in order to set his productive mind  free.

Now Donald Trump Must Be Permanently Barred and Furloughed From Hoar Re: Whitehouse - Part Ii

DONALD TRUMP – RE: DUCKS --
this portion dashed off
(while dry ving an open white hearse slay
so many months back before
slated him slotted the most coveted
Casino biggest win - before the political imbroglio
much more upsetting than today
- - - - - - - - - -
Axe the old don
A trump peter n piper of incredulous hellish crud - be gone
With the ha air brushed pompous ****
so the Macy jackal hound doth run
After public outcry yelps
for his hide and proletarian discord won!
- - - - - - - - - -
Donald Duck Trump ™$ - a pompous ass
makes war with his big brass
knuckles and bucket of crass
maligns vis a vis character assassination with bro kin glass
inciting banal deathly hallowed expletives
toward lass sees – especially
Fox Television news anchorwoman Megyn Kelly
inducing said personality to bear the brunt of brutish mass
of vitriolic n vile insults from incriminating verbal pass
so…ex post facto viz mine NO VOTE from me
thus this digital screed to disallow him
to accept the oath of office, cuz he will hurrahs
from such a snooty arrogant simian with sass!
- - - - - - - - - -
I van a try to describe while sitting on me rump
How he oh bomb in lee rages with gnashing teeth
while back a slump
Blasting Democratic nomination as a sham –
From special interest bro and sis turn pump
He, the epitomy of crass bloviation, a malignant lump
Whose rants sans presidential outcome a sham rocking red bull
in a China shop with his millions beds this,

That and another woman to bareback jump
Disseminating gene pool –
Obama null lee birthing more Quakers
and additionally doth hump
The mass media as some foolhardy charade
And caricature of a frazzled grump
This arboreal clothed ape
Erecting Taj Mahal phallic symbol where players dump
And gamble away hard earn cash

For his hello kitty, as if that cachet to grind and bump
Lambasting with that maniacal leering pout
while hair rum runs rampant with red bulls
In a China shop atop his bulbous aerosol sprayed heady measly shaped
ulterior motive aimed his sights to become Pastor of Muppets
Dis eased cranial hologram
Of a cretaceous, facetious and insidious mump.

What does one do, when they feel forgotten?
What good are tears unseen or sobs unheard
and when the tree of liberty seems to be rotten
because they’ve been dismissed and rejected at a word?

What does one do, when they’re silenced
for viewing the world through their own eyes?
What does one do when they’re trapped and tied down
when they’re kicked and there’s no help around?
What does one do, when frightened?
When chains are thrown o’er them and tightened?
When prayers are raised but seem unheard
when one feels abandoned and alone in the world?

What does one do, when self-evident truths
get wiped away in anonymous booths,
and the winners, gloat and show no mercy
because the people have spoken
and whatever one does, will bring controversy
so tell me…what does one do?

What does one do, when threatened?
When dismayed or betrayed and their back to the blade
and the liberty bell is cracked, and rings no more
at least not for them, and not on these shores,
because for some it’s better to be right, 
then to worry for others, or to fight in their fight.

So I ask, what does one do when singled out
for their religion, or color or body or mind
when the rest of the world seems so suddenly blind?
What does one do when their neighbors turn 
an apathetic eye to the border wall
symbolically standing as a reminder to all
that unalienable only applies to un-aliens?
That life, liberty and pursuit of happiness
are not rights at all, but prizes to earn.
You should have chosen more thoughtfully where to be born
if you wanted rights beyond struggle and scorn.

What does one do, when freedom’s flame dims out;
when lady liberty gets smothered in a pompous mist?
What does one do to pretend it’s ok
when the rhetoric prevailing on any given day
is a torrent of doubt about their hard-earned place 
and could orphan their children, and threatens to chase
them all “back whence they came.”
Tell me, from your anonymous place,
what would you do?
Would you peacefully sit and hope for the best,
and put your trust in your fellow man?
Would you “come together as one”
with those who voted that you don’t matter?
Would you wave freedom’s banner aloft in the breeze,
as your freedom was being seized?
No seriously, what would you do?
