Poetic Encryption Like Ancient Egyptian

This terror and threat to poetic clarity,
Becomes a pet rock for some poets.

Words do count for sure, but so does
Clarity unless poets put a mask on.

Encryption can be used to mask...

An Individual Society
As individuals, we are judged by other individuals. 
   We cast our own judgment… remembering.
   Seldom do our minds change once they're made up. 
I am just like you.

Premium Member I Can'T Breathe - a Rant
I CAN’T BREATHE

I am being suffocated by causes.
Will we march Quixote-like
enraged by the spinning of the windmills?
We protest the wars carrying placards
while expecting others to carry arms,
praise God and worship Jesus while
condemning all others to...

Children of Entitlement
They won't let us have
the same things ...
things that once was given to them
They say we deserve it not,
because we're of the rejected seed ---
those who drew the accursed lot
They know who they be,
them who...

Now the enemy is a vague foggy ghost

You Shall See the Dusk and Dawn- Part 1
Fragile long I’ve been 
Broken like a split wind
Leaves blow through the doorway into the hall 
Another scandalous fall
Desperately trying to fight the call to split 
Some wit I’ve nurtured 
An insecurity blanket I’ve carefully...

Premium Member Nietzsche, Hitler, the Holocaust, Slavery and Racism

And provides useful...

Different Man-Henceforth Flourishing Behindhand
Squalidness—Squabbling squeamishly;
Scrutinizing stigmatized scandalization, substantially scarce
Sprightliness...skeptically surrendering
Shamefully—Scolded sardonically;
Snarling splenetically, severing sensibility, scowlingly simmering
Strenuously...sought survival
Sparring—Sinister sisters;
Seductively swiveling soreness, sarcastically snared, swirling
Storms...sporadically striking
Slowly—Sacrificing stories;
Scorching slanderous subversiveness, suffering suffocation
Senselessly...smoldering serendipity
Sinfully—Silent stranger;
Sneaking skillfully staring
Presumptuously—Pursuing pretentiousness;
Promises protruding pithiness,
Potential problems...penetrating
Frantically—Forsaken fantasizes...

Enumerate Particle
Enumeration of Thought, within my entire being, as if to ascertain an exact molecular particle; of selectively predisposed choice. 

Pre-being molecules particulate, if as an exact enumeration of my entire dispositional thought selection.

We must run up all our credit cards
Spending real money has become much too hard
And we must play the stock market
Trading happiness for lies
Believe not in all those politicians who are promising us peace

Defined by the dictionary says

The movement of your lips

 But what if silence isnt the

what if its one our other five

The Sun Is There To Rise
Door arrives door disappears
Door deprives door shares
Had doors been toward one way only
Life would have lost its lustre

With one hand life provides
With the other life robs us
Life sometimes brutally divides
Some other time it is Mother...

Selectively Secret
Secrets for all their guise
tremble in dark
in shadows protection
yet still feel the penumbras chill
concealed away in their selective box
never to pry open
and tell the truth

As by some adolescent fear
there quaking in its boots
should rebuke then...

The Beginning of a Beautiful Friendship
A subtle-less wink sparks an interest
That ignites a smile
All the while
Thinking hmmm, what if???
Words chosen selectively
Spoken respectfully
Effectively make their way
Back and forth over the air waves.
Bringing a smile to my lips
A sway to my hips

Impromptu
i sank before
not knowing
that your
form

would be
before me
at the alter 
universe

and yet
upset at
your altar
bothered

i have
been praying
some would
say preying

but 
a muse
is a muse
is a
muse

so 
she let me
selectively
seduce

parts
but not
all
of her

not more
but another
only for me
to discover
