Long Robs Poems

Impossible mission to captcha infinitesimal moment

alternately titled: tick tock runneth amuck
seconds elapse imperceptibly 
leaving me dumbstruck,
how quickly fleeting tempus fugit; 
ofttimes imagined as time thief.

Hence following vignette: quiet as a mouse lurks the time thief...

When I was a child, I wondered

Was deep sleep, death?

Was every morning a new life, a new incarnation?

Waking up, I found the people around me were the same

I was the same too, nothing changed

This cannot...

The whirring drone ever present, a conquistador of my private spaces.

The eye wants you to believe
the eye sees everything
it cannot see
your identity
the eye is scared of all your dreams
it fears your individuality

The eye wants you to be
only what it can be

On that soon arriving Beama's Holy Judgment Day
Will we be facing the Son of Man, very sorry and
Afraid? Or will we be jumping up and down, singing
And shouting praises to our glorious Heavenly King
Hallelujah Hallelujah...

With so many running to and fro
Many hearts are full of hatred and pride
Many shedding innocent blood far and wide

Many looking for love in different faces
Defiling their bodies...

Octopuses From Outer Space

I'm glad I'm not some 'octoplie'

What slimy mollusk could invent
Or needs eight arms: A hollow tent
(More land than sea) who won't pay rent!

in Hell
no need for change
in boring hell
only the perfect...

But I can see it everywhere
We’re all chasing empty beauty 
And that’s before the bubble’s pop

Too successful to taste freedom
Thinking we’ve lived and loved
Because that’s...
