Premium Member I'm not in love with her; it's more than that, I'm haunted

I'm not in love with her; it's more than that—I'm haunted.
Every time she looks at me, I feel the Earth tilt,
gravity trying to pull me closer to her.
She's not just in my thoughts; she is their architecture.
I no longer dream; I merely relive conversations we never had.
I replay her words as if they were sacred relics, even when they're mundane.
She could say "pass the water," and I'd write a dissertation about it.
It's ridiculous, I know it's ridiculous, but that doesn't stop the magic.
Her name has become the password that unlocks my impulses.
I see earrings and wonder if she'd like them; I imagine her everywhere.
She doesn't ask to reside in my mind; she's conquered it without remorse,
and I let her, smiling like a fool as she changes my logic.
I've lost count of the attempts to shake off her spell,
but all it takes is a glance, a word, a smile, and I'm caught again.
She's not a habit; she's a phenomenon, and honestly, I don't want a cure.
She hasn't destroyed me; she's redesigned me, and I've loved every second,
every moment of my inner demolition and reconstruction.

The Wonders of Nature

It was but a sandstorm, wind blowing hard and high 
Nature’s way of redesigning the landscape 

The mountains stood like guardians of the desert floor 
Their jagged rocks did not sway as the earth shifted 
Granules of colored sand soared in the wind 
Their dust caused a fog-like view of the city
Cars, houses, cacti, and mountains were covered with beige dust
The sand crept into the houses through closed windows 
I brushed my hand across my cheek feeling the gritty sand 
The weather was squally, and the scent of dirt infiltrated my nostrils

By nightfall, the wind slowed, and the moon rose into the dark sky 
Nature in all its wondrous glory had redesigned the desert landscape 
The sand was smooth as if a brush had sailed across it 
Green and purple cacti were covered in sand, glowing in the light of the stars 
A blackbird perched on the rock wall and brushed the dust off its feathers 
A coyote could be heard in the distance 
The mountains stood like guardians towering above the desert floor

Premium Member Dyed-In-The-Wool

Beguiled risks sensitive alterations
that redesigned unknots and cutup trice
as the fresh teases through the looking glass
exposing timepiece resemblance glossed spilled.
Bemused forgives absence, mindful at hand,
tenuously gripping the rolled spent yarn
that edges fingertips loosely as threads
answer questionable finds, stitch-by-stitch.
Period accentuates the sensed thence
for the bestilled entangled narrative
plots exclamation points of those foregone
chapters ... period midst frames of escape.
Styled room for maneuvering that spirals
at a loss now hangs overhead ticking ...
mockery behold guardians of greens
that grow within disoriented poise.
Blue compliments presence expressed squarely
drafting the voiceless lucid residue
that nurtured former brush and forever
sealed a dream sweeter than a Danish roll.

Premium Member Farewell To Summer

Farewell to Summer

Fond caresses as two seasons meet in summer’s bliss
Autumn bends to fondly leave a farewell harvest kiss;
Remembering your long days and cricket singing nights,
Evening’s breath beneath clear skies of shooting stars so bright;
Washed by waves that dance a jig upon smooth tan beach sands
Exquisite diamond tides foam upon the strands;
Lovely lady, all dressed up in gossamer sunshine,
Leaves the sweetest memories of easygoing days behind.

Tomorrow reaches out to gently take her fragrant hand –
Overtures of gratitude sprung from nature’s plan;

Summer’s gown of greenest greens now redesigned,
Umber hues of scarlet silk with thin gold leaf entwined; 
Midnight moments still buzz and swell just for a little while –
Misty veils lifted up reveal her fading morning smile;
Enter Autumn, quietly, with colorful embrace
Rest now Summer, wrapped in dreams, your sister takes your place.

The True Essence of Beauty

Out of the pot of Nature's Heritage we were created.
The taste of originality to savor, such novelty to behold.
Fearfully and wonderfully adorned with a spirit nurtured as a replica of our being.
A magnificent culture of beauty who have under-taken as a task,
In the misconception of thousand ways to keep such aesthetics alight.
Rather than lived out the beauty of our souls,
Focusing on the weightier matters, are fastened on outward frivolities.
Baked earth marked with easy simplicity and freedom from artificiality.
Rather left a congenital appearance to be remarked, remodeled and redesigned with embellishments.
Who can find a virtuous woman, for her price is far above rubies.
Consider the great beauty in the heart of the Queen of many Queens.
One of Esther, a fair and beautiful maid of whom the royal crown was placed upon her head.
Bore and carried upon her shoulder the pains and burdens of her people, travailed much but overcame.
Abigail, a woman of good understanding and a beautiful countenance with graciousness,
Averted the mischief wrought by Nabal her churlish husband.
Reflect on the beauty of the courage Deborah seised, serving as a judge to the Lord's people.
Fought in the face of danger as Sisera was sold into her hands.
Contemplate the amount of love Tabitha a woman full of good works and alms-deed possessed,
That even at death her folks would rather she lived again than lay helpless to death.
Ex-cogitate the excellency of the fulfillment of everlasting covenant,
The lord established through a seed from the barren womb of Sarah.
Ruminate over the determination of a virtuous Ruth,
From a low estate Mary, blessed among all women of whose seed is the king of kings.
A chew-over ambit an acquisition of a quintessential perspective.

Rhythm Nation

Rhythm is smooth as the sand rolling on the beach as the wind carries the motion of each

Rhythm is made from an instrument & can play or make magnificent motions by a single touch

From piano strings, to guitar & bass chords while trumpets blowing with birds chirping, drums can get on beat too

When rhythm takes control it also takes concentration

Some will allow rhythm to create their fixation of intellectual crescendos or innuendos

While others have no choice because rhythm will never bring fallacy

That defeats the purpose, rhythm is the birthplace

Of creating stimulated energy full of psychosomatic positivity

Unless negativity gets hold of it 

Using a separated form of activity

Rhythm will still transpire a well verse desire 

No matter the emotional creativity

Every life form develops rhythmic cadence

Humans uses motion while, wind provides the turbulence

Rhythm is a nation using elements to compose the telepathy of eclectic movement

October Is Dancing

October is Dancing 
she is a trap of joy for a mark
to those tunes tapping on line
stepping out in her black
before the white for a remark
for the dance shoes redefine
the effect of all the months lack
in the meantime at kitchen advancing

Old and young months were watchin' her
as she prance in peaceful steps on the dance floor
so cool and sizzling to hear up the need to confer
for fire to keep warm the weather and not burn for war
the joy and courage the months have in the year
which is the interest of their purpose counting days 
to number moments and minutes of cheer
and the exposure and enrichment appraise 

Serious music from funny act
labels young minds mischievous youths 
how the hell's rain labels heaven's dews fire
and its own the curlers pure desire 
that was a just lie tied up as a fact
to keep away from blowing hearts, truths
with which head for a new place sit upon
redesigned of little difference in old baker's apron

Knock knows knocks knotting knowledge 
while whistles whisper whim whacking 
villagers' vaults vulnerably via villains
bragging beyond boasting bossy bell
flooded flowers faith flying  flaws 
hiring hasty hatred healing headlines 
retiring reunion's rights relieved repulse
sitting soothing stresses safe separately

Now the dance floor is a bouncing stillness
on a muting lousy sounds 
jumping to dance but go off 
whenever trials are seen as illness
death tricks set its hounds 
that the hade may laugh 
how we wish a new Odùduwà
but Yoruba is stumping on ìwà

Our shoes now become red 
R.I.P to those bloods shed
The heroes efforts are seen
Remain forever in our green
The lights that can go dim 
The lines and stanza in the hymn
May these effects be fruitful
Even though it's seen unlawful


Note: This poem is in memory of those that lost their lives in the peaceful protest of ENDSARS in Nigeria on 20th October, 2020. May their souls rest in peace

Your Flow

Strolling through your 
memory’s ambition
Entrusting it to an Essence 
of smooth transition 
Riding upon your every 
word so well defined
As every sentence then is  
left to be redesigned
Flowing upon your rhymes 
to play within your ink 
Searched for hidden messages as 
they all make me think
Letting each stanza caress 
planting in me your theme 
Loving all the characters in 
your abstract painted dream 
Floating on the ebbs and 
waves of your very flow 
Each bar you was killing it 
like in a murder show
You got this, you don’t need 
me but I’m along for the ride
This is a challenge one I needed
 and that I won’t hide

Fishing Holiday

Fishing Holiday

A kingfisher sitting on the old harbour wall
Listening to the geese from the mud flats call
I'm here for some sea fishing until after the thaw
Braced against the north wind so cold and raw

No Kamikaze diving into a frozen pond
The quickest route through to a life beyond 
I need to cut a hole to fish with rod and line
To catch minnows like an Eskimo for my  tea time

A sound of crunching from the lake what can it be
I fly over the marsh to take a look and see
Two swans are on the salt lagoon a winter wonderland 
I watch from the sluice gate where the water is damned 

The leaders pushing through the thick sea ice
Slowly inching forward, heroic self-sacrifice 
Jet propulsion is required, web feet redesigned 
Whilst tail end Charlie swims serenely behind  

The Buntings skating through the reeds ask me to stay
But I've frost bitten feathers and don't want to play
The brochure promised beaches and sunshine every day
I am flying further south for my next Seaside holiday
