Long Self aggrandizement Poems

Compassion,
rooted in economic capacity and political experience 
within a co-empathic nutritional environment;
like before you came out of Mom.

Nutrition,
rooted in deep listening, learning, and, giving-and-taking, 
absorbing and investing
consuming and producing,
competing and cooperating
double-negatives as positive double-bind dipolar
regenerating...

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
the eye is blind

They will tell you that love will change your life
That just a little pinch of romance
Can make your spirit dance
And that your heart can reach a higher plain
Where nothing seems quite the same
They tell you...

I've come to say a few things about our political involvement,
Important is this because our future is on the edge of  precipice,
And is dangerously tilting irreversibly towards enslavement,
If urgently not arrested we pay the...

'Yelp's' a lark, (truth indeed?), maybe servant of greed?
You want 'natural' ratings? Please your advice heed!
Now your model for earning seems blackmail at best,
You pollute client's site with competitor's ad,
Which you'll clear if we pay...

You are beloved still
and thoughts are tender
which mine mind speaks softly

High athwart global sphere
planet Earth doth app pear
tubby totally tubular as a mere
twinkling gem devoid of lesions from hare
brained schemes to exploit near
Gaea, where

legions of self aggrandizement tear
ring into all four corners

The third eye of Shiva!
Demons reduced to ash!
Ego seeking this power-enigma 
That ascension it may encash

Beginning thus with a nebulous concept
Identity craving for Godlike enablement 
Adopts yogic techniques suspect
To awaken kundalini from containment 

Lucky then...

You are the master of self aggrandizement

You have forgotten how to be in the wrong,
Manipulation is your art, 
Insidious word-play, gentle put-downs,
Reminders of all my failures are your tools, 
I am the dartboard,
Peppered with your...

Though the bodies lay heaped
in gory blood-lust mass
and piled upon vitriol every curse
for the count of corpses
and innocent lives ended
such savagery they inflicted, stirred them not
nor awoke one droplet of remorse

So it was to champagne...

Enlightenment

There is a path to enlightenment
Where wisdom can be found
But by this path to enlightenment
The soul is earthly bound.
The path that leads to Jesus
Demands repentance on the way
Forgiveness is the gift—
That ‘enlightenment’ cannot pay.

Enlightenment’s for...

My Dance of Poetry

When my soul and I dance in accord,
Then and only then
Will I be able  to write my poetry.
I cannot get more than I give!

Yes, I comprehend the world is indexed
aselfish place,
Where to...

In the storm of a creator’s inspired landscape
Spirit appeared as though since ever
Its invisible droplets of essence
Embedded in all recipients
Allowing for an errant notion of knowledge

A house without a blueprint
Spectacular in its presence
Boundless in its...

Inept illiterate and corrupt politicians
Hail the Roman patricians 

Men and women depending on Buffoons
And an Orange haired tycoon 

Explanation  of standing positions
Require a doctorate in disinformation

Machiavellian court of intrigue
Policy and norms exhaust fatigue

Diplomatic and...

The country is at war again
War of hustle and bustle for power
Power for self aggrandizement 
All in the name of democracy 

Birds of prey are in full flight 
Hunting for the Carcass 
Of the comatose...

Standing high upon the knot 
In my ladder years,
I claimed to be the king.
Now, the crown horrifies me.
Still some gentle cruise is within me.
Like Saturn turned upside-down.
Would we notice the madness in the crème?
If there’s...

This is what I am enjoined to be:
Hyphenated !
Bound to vacillate between self-aggrandizement and self-annihilation
I straddle two unrecognizable worlds
only to find solace in none
I am the begetter of my malaise
all made of ungraspable memories and...

Like a deadly drug, it makes us dance
Put our nose in the air, turn our backs .
Craven souls, want another chance.
Walking over friends, we call hacks?

On, yes we sign, love, but mean it not!
How many...

Unload your appraised earnings
    in the collection baskets,
small price to pay 
    for holy water's kickback,
God thundered an indignant snort
    'pon gold filled prospered coffers ...

MIRROR

so profane
looking me over
head to toe

a counselor
no - a judge
i’m ashamed

you shriek
infinitesimal fragments
fall to the floor
quite mad

i’m stuffed into this tiny dress
no one can tell me i’m too fat
but your teardrops whittle
at my self-aggrandizement

i cheat...
