Deep in the overgrown hollow of the woods
the gristmill wheel still turns where memories once stood,
splashing water lightly on each rung some worn and gone
as it circles the breeze with creeks and aching yawns.
As long as the stream continues to flow in its speed
it spins fast and slow dependent on the water feed
and rains may fall occasionally on demand
to restore hidden ledgers and scales of time stands.
No one stirs, no hidden shadows still walk or can be seen,
times have changed and distant factories now glean
the corn, the rye, the wheat from the outstretched fields,
gold glittered shades yellow silk, maize crushed quietly to yield.
Narragansett White Flint Corn husked and dried now snooze
no longer freed to the damsel as it shook down to the shoes
now the chaff is separate, screened and sifted
but it is only a historic memory lifted,
savored by few who recall the old days finds
with dreams and images recalling simpler times,
spin and turn the gristmill wheel of days long passed
like the revolving earth on which these human lives are cast.
3 strikes…you’re out!
I’ve given you way too many chances…
Do you expect more?
You left me empty-handed… your insufficiency advances…
3 strikes…you’ve ran out of chances
But I’m kind enough to buy you some more
Or maybe I have some in store
You’ve pushed it to the limits
I’M TELLIN’ YOU TO QUIT IT
When you throw your tantrums… your foolish fits
I’m tellin’ you to lay off of me…
You treated me like dirt and grime
You have only one last chance…
Will you stop acting irrationally?
Don’t screw it up this time…
3 strikes…GET out of my sight
Get out of my life – there’s the front door
You’re killin’ me with your insanity
3 strikes… don’t pout!
Could you JUST leave me alone tonight?
I’ve given you a bunch of options,
But you were heedless of my vanity…
You’ve tortured me with your profanity
You’ve punctured me with your
lies and your brutality
You’ve defeated me with your
nightmarish reality
Why do you hunger for my agony?
3 strikes…there’s no way out
Of your devious trap…
You’re blaming me for your downfalls
3 strikes…good riddance…get out!
You’ve never answered my calls,
So just desert me…
Let me escort you to the front door
Leave me alone…I don’t love you anymore
You’ve really tried my patience
I’m tellin’ you to leave me be…
You still don’t listen to me – I want you to flee
I want you to be set free
Get out of heart…
Get out of my house…
Get out of my head…
Get out of my life!
You’re the magnet of strife
You’ve invited corruption in my life
It strangles me like a thick rope around my neck
It stabbed me like a butchering knife…
You’re so heartless and pathetic…you’re a wreck
I’m tellin’ you to bother someone else, you lunatic
You have lost your only chance,
You repulsive prick
3 strikes…you’ve got no luck
I’ve given you escape routes and you weren’t grateful –
You don’t even say, “Thank you” for all of the things I do for you
3 strikes…
YOU SNOOZE. . . YOU LOSE. . .
Are you still a ruthless soul?
You’re hanging by a thread – and you haven’t got a clue
Go ahead!
Leave my presence,
YOU nuisance!
You're trying my patience...
I would leave if I were you...
I loathe your ignorance...
But, you just stand there like a fool!
You're taking advantage of me...
Throwing me out in the dumpster like a futile tool
--(Screw)-- you... Please leave me...
You have added to my anxiety
You have done enough
damage as it is...
Thank-YOU POETRYSOUP Family, Thank-YOU very Much YOUR POETRYSOUP brother...HG

Note once upon
The way beyond
The pulse of feel
That lingers still
Gaze on the stars
With eyes ajar
Distant the dream
In subtle scheme
Aware of now
As tears endow
Awake to wit
In fits and bits
Look upon cheer
Yet be now here
Know the unknown
In void unsown
The seeker seeks
To take a peek
Ignorant proof
Ignores the truth
Love is the key
To mystery
Seize fond fancy
To simply be
Feel more than know
Then watch life show
Go beyond things
Let joy now fling
Ooze of fine booze
Can ease fond snooze

Singapore
jampacked city streets
that jangled and banged
in the raucous jarring day
shifted
from business to boogaloo
squeezing into moonlight
party lights
gin and lime-kissed
gimlet sequined dress
strutted
in studded six-inch heels
riveting flair
provoking jive and jazzy nights
to tame this lion of New York
The bed swallowed the evening
sucked-up in slumbered
sobering snooze
exhaling the drunkard’s stench
while the warmth of whiskey
and you next to me
laid dreamy still
popped up and propped up
restless and ragged
realizing the changing view
through the dirt-stained window
a pool of placid sunrise
igniting
colorless clustered towers
bulwarks and girders
scraping the sky
out of the easterly clouds
a creeping golden palette
arose
touching every crevice
defining each silhouette
your body stirs deliberate and slow
rainbow hued eyes
slenderly slitted catching
the new-found light
opening, tenderly revealing
the landscape of your smile
disclosing
a cozy contentment
waking with hello
as I fall into your dream
and a new day
S-leep all you can,
H-ere comes loneliness;
E-yes that want to rest
R-eactivates in happiness.
R-est all you can,
Y-our heart is so in love;
L-etters of affection affects the silence from up above.
G-o to bed all you can,
U-ntil you fall into slumber;
L-et your excitement pass
B-ecause it can truly hinder.
I-n May twenty-first morn, inspiring lines are created;
N-ever can you snooze whenever you're broken-hearted.
C-atnap all you can,
O-r open your eyes all day;
N-o worries and fears
C-an take your wake away.
E-very night is important,
P-rotecting you from fatigue;
C-omplete doze in eight hours
I-s needed to be productive.
O-ne period of hard work is a daily duty of man;
N-ever harm your health though, so sleep all you can.
The wind blew thoughts of you to me today
I felt the day you went away.
The last breath in your lungs
After your final injection of bliss
The disease…your catalyst to an eternal cyst
Quietly suffocating you from the inside out
Not a word was spoken, not even a shout
Silence made a noise in the pages of your book
I decided I wanted to take a deeper look.
I know what the note said,
I know your internal fight
After all, it’s been mine too day and night.
But you were a soldier that was tired of the battle
You rode that fine horse without a saddle.
I remember the day we met in that sullen place
Where there was no time and there was so much space.
We played endless hours of checkers as you danced with my feet
Our souls were both empty but our hearts roots grew deep
And you listened for days about where I had been
All the pain in my life that was buried within
The white walls turned to colors as you spoke with such grace
You were an angelic being with a lovely face
Your long blonde hair was a golden delight
You were so precious to me and you were so bright
And years went by and I didn’t know if you remembered my name
When we came back together you were filled with so much shame
The needle had punctured more than your arm
It had deafened your ears and your spirit was gone
And I told you all I knew of the love from up above
But I had yet to learn it so it wasn’t enough.
I recall the time I broke in for you
Just to see your smile made life seem exciting and new
I hid scrapes of paper in all of your stuff
Inspiration for the days ahead that were going to be tough.
Than a few years later I got the news
That you decided to go on a permanent snooze
And you willingly took more than you should
So the demons would be silenced forever in you
But I bleed on the inside not knowing where you are
Are you a sun in the sky or a shooting star?
Are you dancing with angels or burning with demons
Are you bound by shackles or are you a fee man.
I will never know your final thoughts
The plague that feasters… the fear that rots
But I know I did love you from the start
Forever you will remain a scar in my heart.

"Blues""
They don't even notice a new you
Ooooo
They keep looking at me like I'm cuckoo
Boo-hoo
Who knew
I'd have such bad juju
All that's left is a doll used for voodoo
Any day now I'm due to
Evolve into Mewtwo
Then I'll be a guru
Just love me, since very few do
Nothing I said is voulu
I’m looking for a nice girl that can dance in a tutu
Her name doesn't have to be Lulu
Taking a cruise
Got the blues
My grasp on reality, I'm starting to lose
No longer minding my P’s and Q’s
Continuing to booze
And snooze
Had to pay my dues
Can't follow the clues
Must be missing a few screws
Heart beaten black and blue
An endless ooze
Of blood followed by a bruise
Not a single soul whose
Able to walk a mile in my shoes
No longer amused
Or Enthused
At a rapid rate I consume
Substances being abused
Aghh, I'm so confused
To tell the truth, it's of no use
Because I've always been doomed
Overhead a black cloud loomed
And there was endless gloom
I Improved
Then fell back and lost my groove
She sent me nudes
Of much more than her boobs
To me and ten other dudes
Then she had an attitude
And wanted to feud
Because I wasn't in the mood
To put up with bull, go ahead and call it rude
Whew!
For you
I made more than room
And then boom
There you were marrying a man born with a silver spoon
Able to literally buy you anything underneath the stars and moon
Picking flowers that recently bloomed
To whom
It may regard, may this lead you to a boon
With something so very opportune
Got to keep making moves
After what I choose
All while sampling different foods
Nearby a lagoon
Just following my own tune
Looking up at the moon
While atop a dune
Time has once again proved
That from the picture, I've already been removed
It's okay because this afternoon
It will all be over soon
For a lasting lust, my heart’s been beating
On a seat, I daren’t sit for deep thinking
My entire body boiled for the same meaning
I shivered, sweated like I was in a stream
Closer I moved, only her eyes to seem
Opened to hold me tight close onto her chest
A hero of her sentiments I kingly became
Fever settled to wake the eel with a name
Inside the still sea, the waters had swollen
Making its shaved slopes highly slippery
To invite the addon for swimming nicely,
Smoothly dive soaked into the clean waters.
To make the soggy cup dance and spill more
Such that both hills get hosed like a rainy moon
To get gulped by hearty ecstasy of the hearts
That creates a paradise with angelic songs,
Penned for a love story to remember always;
Making me snooze in her majestic hands
Cuddling my shaggy chest to ditty my heart.
Poem by Mugisho N. Theophile
It's Friday, yay! The final weekday of my academic immurement.
On Friday nights we go out - we’re up late - so late that it’s early,
but it’s ok, we’re young and dumb.
But if you think you’ll find me sleeping in on a Saturday morning - you’d be wrong.
On the weekends, the richest part of Paris mornings involve neighborhood street-life - which are invitations to sensory abundance - and it all happens before lunchtime.
The sensorial joys of the “sun-south” flower market stalls, overflowing with fresh lavender, peonies and powdery-sweet Violet blooms - tulips from Holland and roses from Kenya - that cool the air with fresh fragrances compete and mingle with savory baking aromas from local boulangeries (bakeries).
The dueling scents define mornings in the Marais (ivy-clad streets) or along the Seine.
Hit the snooze button and you can miss it (and trust me, napping later can be fun).
