Long Solicits Poems

VIC’S PLACE
 by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS

When I come to I’ll start a new path
The one I’m on solicits her wrath
When the alarm went off I moved not an inch
If I opened my eyes a brawl was...

It's the unfair society:
from lenient judges
to corrupt attorneys
and with some bad cops
who claim that their motto is:
" To serve and protect "
Oh, no don't tell me that I am crazy: I don't trust the Law!
It's...

WALKING WITH RUMI

It’s a religious routine, his impious
use of scripture and prayer calling on god
for salvation and sustenance, purity of heart,
perhaps a way better job, or some actual proof
that his people still matter
His, is a...

O My Jazmin-

I know, your pair of lips speaks of me
Your electrifying touch of hands solicits me
Your dramatic love letters invite me ardently

True to say, I engrave you in my silver canvas of desire
No, there...

Man of melancholy - memories ashen and shadow gray,
heart harrowed, solicits solace from her psychic energy.
An offering, his woebegone weeping wildflower bouquet,
teardrops titian, sorrow scintillant, reflects rueful reverie.

Heart harrowed solicits solace from her psychic energy,
free...

Simple sutle silence solicits the soul.
 Another night in lyrical trance
I can't see the stars in east coast sky
Because ima burn to bright and keep the subjects 
dence like a tablespoon of moon brought home...

Feels familiar 
Lines of silver
Streaking 
from on high.
great, the divide
a lover's sigh.
Linen wrappings 
lace used for Christmas 
trappings
tender touches 
 chilly ripples, barely 
noticeable across 
 skin covered in icing.
Oral transactions 
debits and credits 
O' the anticipated additions 
Thoughts glued
on how...

I'm on a learning curve and learned today
a straight line means exponential growth, and
the steeper the line, the faster the death toll. 

You saw the number of death this morning?
The tiresome business is all over...

Pause the clock, let the world stop
allowing our past to catch up 
before going one more second 
into the future. 

Would not stop long, the past 
dragged along generation after generation, 
faster than the last,...

I cherished time walking through Cherry Blossoms,
And when it is to turn pink, it’s mind-blowing.
It’s like a pink rug situated on both sides in Kyoto,
Experiencing the Promised Land while having Cotto.
 
I love observing the...

Mark of the Beast(666) 

Money rules most everyone, 
just ask me and you will see. 
Even Billy Graham solicits funds, 
how else do they do 
the crusades... 
Money is god(mammon) 
ewe can have god or...

At birth I saw the opening
And a speck of light
From the world that welcomed me –
The first visible light
To excite my pupils, I guess.
That light comes clearer now
As I pass by the road
Full of dried...

Fairy Tales and as you wishes have warped my mind
Cause with you I have come to find
Like Icarus to the sun, and Annabel Lee to the sea
There's something about your smile that compels me
Like a...

I gawk across the court
A witness to her Murdered Love
               She points towards the Guilty veins
That Blocked a Dead heart

This is the greatest struggle that mocks me, 
To be a distant sigh, caused by this queen;
A rose that has yet to compliment thee,
beyond the scope of eyes, already seen. 
There is mystery in her...

Her insatiable hunger
fuels her primal desires.
And in her skimpiest skirt,
she solicits cash for sex.

Prowling taverns late at night,
she peddles depravity.
And smelling of cheap perfume;
she signals cheap with each breeze.

A succubus seductress,
she sells disappearing dreams.
And her...

A lonely swing hangs from a tree
It seems as though it waits for me
To share the joy of sunset sublime
Something I feel, more than I spy

Red and orange autumn skies
Solicits me upward on every try
Higher...
