Long Remonstrate Poems

"Peace in the Nowhere"

Ghosts remain in this place
they read their words 
marked each day on walls
like prayers, it gives them
peace in the nowhere

someplace relevant to go

Ghosts commune in this place
disowned long ago or walked
off the...

“The Splice of Life”



When colour 
was to be 
washed out
of the world 

the evil ones 
didn’t care

the Actor led 
with his 
Dementors 
either side of him

Laundry, 

they resolved 
to be the best 
pristine method 
for...

"Pale Horse and the Yellow Submarines"



There approaches 
One

Light bringer
rides a dead pony

albino 
red eyed, no gun

or so 
the story goes

pale 
as death

hear its 
Netherworld neigh

beetles 
dig deep 

pigeons coo 
novocained

ignorant 
messages fixed

For some enchanted evenings...

The following scenario imagined
after the hoopla of
Democratic National Convention miracle workers
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz
trumpeted politically wholesome zeal,
and achieved advancement
propelling them ahead
in the race to the White House.

Unlike the hangdog expression of...

Part Three

Whether or not relations with the uncultured enamour
Do not seek to succour what should sour

What does it matter if you gain or lose inferiors
Who feather their own nests and leave you in a mess

Blame hardly ever helps unless it is used to express anger

it does not achieve any more than venting raging frustration

levels the playing field to a point apportioning recrimination

without actually achieving anything but turning on the...

" ... full blast ...."

357 is a great tale to tell...
Tesla saw the steps
so invented his call

And then in the silence 
of Olympian ground

Said d;Meter to them all....

Pavlov’s dogs are salivating
bells of nature ring as
every action yields consequences
stimuli evoke a response and
primeval instincts dance with evolution

‘I think therefore I am’ jingles in the mind
while valid emotions seek freedom
from primordial shackles and chainsaws...

TIME

TIME

 

Time again; Time again and again; Time the sigil of violence, Time begets silence

 

TIME: 'twas the word was spoken

TIME: the line that has ended

TIME: the separatist guerrilla

TIME: the racking of gaunt mind, spuming...

Brothers Levi, Jordan, Matthews, Joe and Jedden, 
You were sheer shocked as did Sister Hussein
That even this day we can still adjure, argue, advocate,
And advance active activism for the rule of law stolen,
As did Dr...

"We are moving fast towards an age where people will be lovers of self, lovers of 
money, self-seeking. Self-gratifying, laying aside morality, spirituality, family 
values, and God, for self-preservation, self-gratification, and a cheap thrill.
2 Timothy...

I reminisce I miss
	remonstrate and misplace
		in search of my narrative
dust off the shelves
	smoothen around the edges
		align what seems meant to be

Carefree strong winds of sailing
	through the attic of past truths
		founded in a basement of sense
when...

We are victims
Tied with  common fetters 
Loosed in thoughts of varied choices and desires
Loosely searching to make ends meet:
The meeting at this spot,
Either to go or stay, is a choice.

We are victims
Of the policies...

Write some limericks using words below.
Here are some examples that I just created.

Bar Stool Had Been Destroyed

Instead of him being a drinking fool, 
Threw bar stool into swimming pool;
Now no longer here,
Or close...

In the scheme of things, in the sweetly dreaming night,
The wintry grey or summer gold of day and daylight,
Whatever is proven or not must be the proof,
And whatever belief is believed must be the truth.

sheep sleep surreptitiously 

spiders spin shredded silken seances

song birds sulk soporifically 

rabid ravens rave rapturous rhapsodies


capriciously caught in clangour

I die dire deceptive dreams

tepid tears tear through torment

viscous vapours vacate venom

pus pelts my pitiful pillow

oozes omnipotent...

He keeps himself confined,
to bluster now, and remonstrate
the struggle being more than he can bear.
Pieces of him pulverized, fashioned from
the sweat of his own making to a glimpse
of the immortal, just a glimpse, but not

Thou has been our saviour,
Though we've been bewitched by different savours.
That emanate from thy armpit,
Pulling along with it,our infamous wits.
The product of your skilfulness,
Had stirred in us readiness.
To war against food stupor,
Even if indirectly we're...

QUEEN   OF   HEARTS

Queen of Hearts, delightful and red,
Baked some tarts, or so it is said,
Left them to cool on the windowsill: 
Knave of Hearts then ate his fill.

Demonstrators in all riots
Aren’t at all full or  half idiots:
Any fellow on Rich Diet
Most likely will remain quiet…

Idiots don’t fear Police Canister,
Whose contents are damned sinister.
Cops begin to consult Tear Gas
And vanish would even...
