Long Refracts Poems

I used to dream of a dark hall. Dim. Empty with thick cheap navy curtains. 
The breeze. It felt hot and old. It shivered in the curtains that lined the walls on both sides.
The breeze....

In my blooming brokenness,
        I seek for a 
    clue of something meaningful,
but what if nothing    of velvety value

You make me love you to death, in the depths where light refracts,
In the labyrinths of the night, you are the whirlpool that tightens its grasp.
No mercy you have, oh cruel fate, you shorten the...

The young rain-dog spins-the axis of the Earth-his primitive howl is a native plea.

A dance to beckon the rain. The dog lunges, the dust swirls, yet the morn' sky 

remains a hot blue glass; it's...

Something fades with the setting sun
When light refracts and then is done
A perfect thought's but once complete
And then there's nothing more to see

Hold within your hollow eyes
The hope that stars can never die
The fallen thirst...

Skyline Drive
by Kevin Robey
April 24, 2014

I laid to waste
The things I hate
Upon the gate
Of my escape

I Found the door
And stole the key
They wanted more
It wasn't free

I found the light
It blinded me
They weren't bright
Those memories

But it...

Meandering memories 
move through my mind 
like a river flowing   
to the salty sea. 

Limbs stretch lazily 
reaching skywards 
like the gangling 
branches of an ancient tree. 

Standing still in 
the solitude of...

The rhapsody of rainbow 
melts in morose mélange,
the concoction of colors
bleeds bland in 
shattered silence,
sucked out 
of crumbled core 
of sensuous cloud,
soothing rain rinses 
the stains in broken hearts,
shades of grey paints 
the frayed linen...

Sometimes I feel, as though I stand,
Trapped in the prison of my own hand.
A mirror within a mirror's gaze,
A labyrinth of eternal haze.

I turn left; I turn right—there is no door,
Only endless echoes of before.
Each...

Truth had me up against the ropes
and semi-concious without no boxing skills
Fear of it makes hair on my neck grow like minoxodil

Watchin the clock is ill when, faced with the truth
Parallels observing, amateur video tapes...

The waves they rocked against the shore in a caress that stole the ground from ‘neath its feet, and lulled to sleep all of the restless stars the sand could never meet

With a promise of...

Awake the child that ached for years
The frightened man, ashamed of fear
I hold too tightly to this place
The reverence that lead to waste

Silent virtue comes undone
The burning pain, and dying sun
I can’t recall what I...

Awakening my zeal, smiles hazy morning
Taking leisurely walk in nature's daydream
Advancing slowly into dense fog's retreat
As sun's orange glow on the horizon rises.

Shining  dew refracts  in golden sunrise
Attracting rose blooms to admiring eyes
As...

My glaring eyes sneak a look at
The clear spring waters 
In the water jug (karuwa) –
The pure appearance of my face
Reflected like in the mirror
Strike against the inner surfaces 
Split into bits and pieces
With dispersal...

Clouds stretching above craggy peaks gracefully
Mushrooming ever higher with each hour.
A vision beguiling across the speckled slate valley,
The distant rumbles echo compelling power.

Lured towards the storm where my love awaits
As I approach, gray-white canopy growing
Amplifying...

As the light from the Sun is blocked by our planet earth
The light refracts differently, hits the moon with mirth
Like a hot kiss of a lover hits the cheeks of a maiden girl.
Each time Tetrad...

I sit and stare beyond what's there, besides
"The oval window, a portal to another dimension".
It drags the moon's eclipse off the sun's circle
to show an ellipse with twin foci, in two dimensions not one.

The tension...

Got a rinsed sensational feeling after too many
Fantasies,  puff puff with no passing,  drinking
From the clay pot off brew, a fortnight stirred...
Traditional brewage that seize minds, trapped

One, two, three jars in a rush...

Crisp breeze blows summer’s scorched screen away,
the somber sky revives to radiate the alluring aura, 
clumps of cloud turning cotton span its canvas,
sail shapeless across the arena of seraphic azure.

Nature’s prism refracts the ambiance of...

To many, you are like rainbows,
In the sky when the sun refracts,
That, once in a blue moon it glows,
Though one, all eyes it still attracts.
Their gazes just see you in part,
'Cos most of your beauty...

Today was the first day I held 
a sledgehammer with intention
Callouses connect palms to fingers
tiny fleshy boa constrictors.

There is no catharsis
I know this to be a hollow act
With a face smithed of iron, 
a body...
