Admonished
They spread across the table
to sway injuries of oak stained smothers, 
Just as though my values in obscure realities, 
comfortable by the sound of thrashing drums, 
the acoustic vigilant in the distance... 

The spread carried...

The Melting Gaze of the Sun
While the sun lent breath to the moon,
Steadily dropping the dusk of its guileless veil
Oh! Such eagerness in demise, I'd never seen
Madness dripping from the darkest skies, and beneath I sit;
Crumbling into my own existence,...

Love’s Pawnshop

Unable to pay the debt
Love is often pawned
Sympathy as a claim check
Stuffed deep in pockets of suffering

Such self-deprecation roams the streets
Perplexed with using...

A ripe body of Adolescence, nuzzled by beauty
on which hair is polished by crystals and sapphire
but lacks in the garrison of virtues and patriotism
becoming blind to the significance of its own felicity.
So gullible  is...

Mute My Inside
it is exactly those people,
..those oblivious of my struggle
that mumble the most
they know nothing from my trouble
yet they condemn me while taking toast

precisely them that see nothing
claim to see_but like spoilt binoculars
they see nothing

No Manner of -Ites
I am praying for the day, 
When all walls will fall away, 
And we as sons and daughters, 
Will all truly obey. 
 
The commandment to love one another, 
Is the great and first commission....

Patience Susan, Lemme Finish
Yes,but lemme finish Susan
Holy sermons,discourse,invocations-
Priest, like one possessed,
Less holy whispering.

It was a pleasure trip
Church at hill-top
Spreading death knell
How come you fail to hear it?
Ancestors lay beneath earth
Waiting our arrival
Your colour sense
Matching arrogant taste
Like amorphous mind.

Chariot...

Night Spirit
Fell despair struggling in gloom
Barely here, but under the moon
I slip and plunge through all of my dreams
To hear the words “this is self-deceit”

Once a wolf gliding with speed
Through the dead carved in sun’s streets
Until...

Wings Of Fire
Into the dark corners of desire,
long left standing upon 
the un-swept floor of secret yearning 
have I strived to press your memory away.

Which over time of endless days
and with a heart now callused
by the emptiness...

Poison
I bit you
and drew blood
one I would rather
die than EVER hurt
and yet there it is
the poison of distrust
the multi millennia of Eves
whose self deceit destroyed
the man they loved
the decades of abuse 
violence , rape ,...

Please Stop the Rain
My past 
Whirls and twirls 
Like a violent storm 
Filling my life 
With confusing memories 
And stories I’ve told 
So often 
Over and over again 
Mixing and merging 
So that truth and fantasy 
Become one...

Premium Member The Wyrm of Time
Through chaos flies the wyrm of time
Unyielding wingbeats do not pause
Untroubled by the pantomime
In constance serves no cause

Experience shall take its toll
And mete out pleasure with the pain
The fickle dice will always roll
And fall -...

The Birth and Rebirth In a New Dawn
Steam driven ashes and lava from volcanoes
Obscure tomorrows
Exploding from bean pods and tomatoes
Beseeching and seeking halos

Our lives require
To earn a rebirth
Inspire and inquire
Whether a new berth

Becomes of the essence
In the path the future offers
Despite the...

Folie a Deux
Gradin foliums....

These Oratorians of self deceit

Dicentras bleeding hearts....Benighted

Trying hard to portray, something else

And then to justify, this begriming....

Through hollowed and piercing words

Projected towards others

These prima facia showings

Of pretentious light....

Often unveiled, amid their antipodal works

Derived from...

Self-Hate
More empty patience in retreat
A worthy design for my self-deceit
More lack of care to spin my will
More ways to pretend that I can still….

My reason drifts into this pain
A conflict of spells manifest again
Reflective hatred...

Heart Sewage - Harmatophile
(Heart sewage)

HARMATOPHILE

If I could I would

Turn off this love faucet

It has begun to back up again.

Flooded the basement

Filled with mud

Devotion, emotion and dust.

All this broken plumbing

A chemical eroding trust

Our constant numbing in procrastination

A cracking foundation

Seas of Loathing
To such degrees that loathing may run-
Deeply plunging into the soul and spreading self-deceit.
Struggle against the pull of the tide
Or surrender yourself to the current and just let go. 
Either way feels like disaster impending;
No...

World On Verge of Self Destruction
The world teeters on the verge of self destruction
As humankind devours human kindness
In missions bereft of conciliation construction
Which rebuilds and fields flowers of happiness.

When humankind withholds warmth
Preferring to promote self...

Between light and shadow

Tiresome and obligated symbiosis
Wretched war bewildered heart

Sprung out from depths unknown

Thrives in the split engulfed in haze
And with impeccable dare
Steers the gift of life with negligence
