Deadbeat Side
O Aphrodite,
Grecian fertility goddess
Matriarch idol of the womb,
your wise children love not reproducing
— Ancient Zion chant
heard in the echo chambers
of the caverns along the Aegean sea

Dwindling cries, dashed on the rocks
in luxurious maternity wards,
are slowly...

new to the group naive to the lies and deceptions

Premium Member Arsene Wenger: More Than Just a Coach
A simple god so slender and symbolic
having a one way onslaught in his approach
and toiling with the master-class of the game
to revolutionize an entire country away from his.
He bastardized his inheritance of stiffness and a...

A BACKWARD GLANCE
Alongside a Chiltern chalkstream
I lay me down to dream,
of country paths,stiles and steep slopes,
those days,long ago,filled with hope;
I dreamed of days of summer sun
when my life had just begun,
climbing trees,cricket on the green,

Legal Rods
The book of torts is the new manual for life
The law is king and
The government must always be praised

Efficient and effective parliaments
Are measured by legislative prowess
As laws multiply
So does government success
They believe only in themselves
So...

Suppress Self Satisfaction
When within me grow powers of selfishness
Self satisfaction and self gratification ensue
To advance an agenda steeped in short-sightedness
Which under normal circumstances I shouldn’t pursue

Unless I welcome revulsion
From circles where I draw friends
Who hobnob with me...

The two were brothers unlikely ones so they had been told by their 

Heteronormative leaders marching in confidence to monochromatic

Repetitive bugles of one-sidedness’ strides one-sightedness’ quest 

Occidental Oriental obedience...

Immanent Yet Transcendent

Above the plodding, sightless mediocre
A latent embryo breathes,
Awakens the murmurs of the inbred orphic harbinger
Through tangled threads of colorless mesh
Serendipity stirs, sets in motion,
Spirals
Above the weary path of habitual self...

An Exercise In Futility
A howler when I purse my lips
Cutting off my nose to spite my face
When on purpose I beat my chest in cribs
Where restraint, respect and reflection erase the trace and brace

Immersed in consistency, competency and...

So many people claim to know 
What god wants 
He hides above and has no face
Yet his minions who are self- appointed
Proclaim his way is the only way 
To live a life

not that my faith is big enough yet
but a short while ago which
seems like an eternity right now

But Nothing seems to shaken

Fore sightedness of What will Meet me first?

through man’s history been overlooked and abused

Mistaken Memories
It is like the world is colluding. 

To erase the memories that once wandered free. 

I sometimes plan to go back. 

And feel the scars forming all over again- as if being attacked. 

Because the...

With folded hands, I ask for forgiveness, 
For the things I did wrong, or you did not like, 
There is nothing wrong with this realization,

A Politician's Creed
© 2012 (Jim Sularz)

We are conceived by short sightedness,
nurtured with unbridled power.

We believe in self-interest,
and the dollar almighty.

As masters of deception and treachery,
we father hatred and misery.

We revel in our own injustice,
wallow in our lies...

hot days
when it gets dark
it remains humid and warm
the stars are obscured
by a heavy haze
the trees are so still
as if two-dimensional
a thick silence
broken only by boy racers
revving up Willett Way
night’s muggy cloak
stills the birdsong
open windows bring
no...

Broken Glass
Melodious kaleidoscope
of broken glass,
Its mosaic montage
consumes lost encounters;
a toasting ceremony
for what perished.

Committed specialization
expires unrewarded.
Sand dollars of short-sightedness
decorate 
the exacting goddess 
of broken importance.

Sliced open, 
laid bare, 
and reassembled,
the vintage gown
of fractioned fragments
unites again 
with the...
