Our topic for this morning
said Professor Glory
to her sleepy class of bicameral scholars,
is "Attraction v. Addiction to Peak Experiences."

Addictions are wanting more than attraction therapeutically invites.
Addictions suboptimize the Peak outcomes they promise.
Unlike the continuous resonance...

EFFUSED ENCOUNTER


Neither a dream nor a trick, I beguiled--
I reach the sky enameled with golden smile.
To hurdle bumps and curves, I continue to pedal
this steadfast being yearn to step on a pedestal,
I found at the...

God created hands for building things. Sometimes before you build something, you must first destroy something else.

Beneath the frozen dome of a late December, I learned with melancholy
That those who gave me wings are not the titans I summoned in my childhood dreams,
But two earthlings, stirring my dreams into an aura,...

I implored myself with money and okay,
thought that feasting at the time was no crime,
and as the chyme soothingly rolled in my head's threads,
then in pretense covered that craving with a palm,
that craving very agile...

No more bare cupboards,
fridge, and deep freezer
since returning with more than
our share of daily bread
referring to this mister, who

frightfully squawks like an old geezer,

In the tummy
	Of gray matter
	A grinder of ghostly gushes
	Sends down
	A pulse, cunning, brutal and nutty
	And the skull’s
	Soft mass………….
	Booty to desert vultures
	Pulling apart and tearing
	What not, nerves 
	Otherwise steely, so to say

A fever in the midst of a winter chill;
a shiver in the heat of the summer sun-
For love is not a choice but the kismet

and when you say it, coupled with a "kiss"
the searing heat of passion's what I miss

When blue sky has drawn its veil
That's when passions will prevail
Within the dark of nights closed eyes
Entangled lovers sweat and writhe

A fervent lust. A human need.
A chance to plant the given seed
It starts with just...

Two vagabonds
With a dozen of dogs
Around the half eaten bread

A boy and a girl 
With the school bag and pink smile
The beggar boy and the pigeons look blank

Her boyfriend Collin
Has sent a letter that she
Cannot...

I love chocolate soup the best! 
Served after a hefty meal. 
There’s always room for dessert 
When it comes to poetry. 
So sickly sweet it can heal 
All forms of ailments. 
Perhaps it’s not so...

Two halves of a whole, we are,
Inseparable, intertwined,
Bound by the dance of life
In a symphony of hearts combined.

You're the rhythms that reverberate loudly
My heart beats akin to a drum in my chest

I started sucking my thumb until it looked like a plumb
Things didn't feel any better so I poured a glass of rum
Some will imagine I'm happy when they hear the tunes I hum

what to do for spilt blood,
naught else but to write,
urgently before it dries,
dies, these words,
would produce little affect,
had they been vein written,
draw red out from the surface,
blue or black,
as stilled waters they run,
deeper, drowning in...

She who has imbibed of life’s gaiety
I could request nothing more of
Her fervent ardency has rooted deeply
Ever burgeoning upon the pedestal of spirit
Her love my burning constancy

Positive mindset satiates my hunger,
In dark clouds, it finds silver linings to see.
It carves out success, not as a warmonger,
And its bravery swirls like tides in the sea.

Walking its paths fuels daily ambition,
With it, no...

Let’s go frolic on the landscape of spring
And relish jubilant nature’s beauty 
That satiates our glorious wondering.

Exuding brightness from its paths that bring
Showers of bliss in limitless bounty
Let’s go frolic on the landscape of spring.
