Long Procuring Poems

“The God Complex”



His face imprinted 
hidden under layers of ink
he whispers his words

like a haunting breeze
dust blown off the pages
towards the back of their minds

once-in-a-while 
reminding them of stories 
they are eventually, all souls

I crowned the write full missus "champ paean practical joker"

The following moniker “innocent prankster” 
awarded, hashtagged, and qualified wife

DOOMSDAY:

All claim they revering Almighty GOD,
Same time hailing graven images as their lord.
Plainly they see it no wrong;
The inappropriate way of procuring mammon.
And their advertisment is just a come-on.
Now a norm having an individual deity,
And...

Please do not weep for me!

(alternately titled: dost newt expend
precious tears toward pitiful poet!)

Intense passion to read
doth foster divine enlightenment...

Also simultaneously, albeit instantaneously
triggering brutal mind-numbing self awareness
starkly underscoring how existence (mine)
devoid scant trace
positive life enhancing...

When a woman I yearned for would not return my emotion,
I consulted a witch for a magic love potion.
She said there was an elixir that would suit my request,
Time-consuming to make, but was by far...

inexplicable to me why your being:
beguiles, fascinates, intrigues, lures,
orchestrates, radiates tantalizes this
CVS patron, who dares himself to

let spill forth (like sought after shim
mer ing liquid (perhaps the elixir for
eternal life), aware that thee might
partake draughts...

Confusion, disillusion, intrusion, conclusion,
Such is life’s ever-changing, smiling face
Ferocity, atrocity, generosity, velocity,
A whirlwind of emotions, a fate you can't erase.

Alienation, fascination, cancellation, race-relation,
Seeking understanding, longing for a deeper connection.
Enduring, procuring, assuring, alluring,
In this journey of...

cellophane world...

of this and that from hither and thither

the consumeristic narcotic

Commodities.

Traded as rapidly as futures,
sold to bidders, 
merchants of misery,
bought and herded,
into cattle-cars, vans, 
containers sailing,
on the seven open seas.

Women, men, 
girls, boys,
auctioned into servitude,
stolen lives, 
extinguished families,

for,

the cheap labour market needs to be fed,
an...

As unique as fine crystal, soft shades, reflecting the many hues
 A plethora of color, rainbows appear in yellow, purple and blues
 Rain drops sparkle, like miniature diamonds, set upon the leaves
 The sun embraces...

SKIRTING UNDERCOVER

Skirting undercover, peering what it brings 
I’m not living in a world where nobody sins

Everyone, darkness underneath their smile
All fighting ageism so they remain the child

While picking pockets, procuring their wiles
Collecting their monies into...

You’ve got a key in your pocket, black salt in your hair. Smoke in your whispers, and rust in your stare.  Tears run down your cheeks and your gaze goes cold. Face facts lil’...

Bring all of humanity to it's knees 
begging on your whim, your mercy;
Then judge it.
Your cold, quivering, cracking lips
quipping tips to the 
wicked; to the rich.
Whilst knock-kneed choking
broken backed masses 
lay on the floor:
These are...

Dear Mommy,

Why am I so short and pudgy ugly
But never mind my crying mommy 
Thank you for giving me the curse of birth
And the worst hairdo and breath on Earth
For buying me kitty cats to...

I watch you play upon the stairs,
 
 Lost in your childhood games,

 With freedom and no restraint.

Wonderful wonders woven within wild. 
Titillates theatrical tender thoughts
Consistently creation, contrives conservation concerns. 
Ecology evolves equations, entitling entities essence.
Empowering equality, enlarges existence.
Life lovingly leases Longevity.
Biodiversity braces, blatant brutal balding.
Deforestation, destruction devoid due definition.
People physically, plundering...

Come April
There's lots to catch
Spring is fading out
Flowers are wilting
No new flowers on their way
But before sunrise
Step into a field
Stretches of golden fields
Will greet you dancing in the breeze
Wheat stands tall
All ready to be harvested
Farmers...

HUMBLE REMINDERS

Somewhere deep inside we know the truth
all that we are—all that we own is a gift
our drive and wisdom received by our Creator
we take credit denying His generosity—from youth

None of us asked to be...

Some years from now
the Devil throws a banquet – 
In hell, of course – where he alone 
unquestionably rules:

A banquet table plated for 
greedy fools: to his right,
Barack seated; with Hilary at
his heated left; Bidden,

A Tango on the Lake
When Hooded Grebe are wooing a mate
Magic’s made in tangoes on the lake 
Lovebirds perform synchronised in tune
Bewitched beneath a bedazzling moon.

It’s a wonderful courtship display
Where intricate movements come to play
They...
