Long Somberness Poems

As the Autumn falls
The jays sing
A melody -a tale the old wives would sing 
While the sun fills the sky dripping
With gold as honey to the brim
I catch sight from my window 
Vines and creepyard...

A DEITY
Sonorous
Rhythms from the belfry waft
A call of our votive worship to give.
In your sacred tent we besiege you.
For, to you our exultation to dole and your
Mercy on us to cascade.
The tune of the harmonica,...

7. “Autumn leaves don’t fall; they fly. They take their time and wander on this, their only chance to soar.” Owens, Delia. Where the Crawdads Sing, Chapter 17: “Crossing the Threshold” (p. 124).

She is
 sallow-skinned, salacious, seductive beauty,
  secure, safely sequestered in seclusion;
   sinking, shaking, shattered, submerged 
self-contained, self-centered in selfless solitude
 
she sleeps, 
 a slip of a slenderized, spindly silhouette

All of the roads this bold rambler took
were narrow and dark; a half-moon hung very low
displaying its melancholic mood never turning mellow...
it had a perplexed glance as if it wondered how he mistook
its somberness as...

The moon illuminated the sloping terrain,
Following the hills down to the sea.
Daisies proudly displayed their blossoms,
Windswept spruce swayed in the breeze.

Above, menacing clouds drifted,
Diminishing this awesome sight for me.
A storm gathered on the scene,
Stretching across...

Underneath the thick and icy snow is
buried the dormant wild grass that lost
its glitter: it's spring's emerald blanket
that covered the barren soil of meadows!

Even the blinding light of our main Star
doesn't shine too brightly over...

Inefficacious—permanence;

Outlived effectualness;

Presumptuous notions;

Really though;
Innumerable goddesses—

blanknessly staring
still she is all I desire...
Realization
of all that I still require...
Has her beyond 
scared of myself...

Howbeit I came to care again;
Dealing with the same ---- everyday—

Am I allowed to touch the blue of the magazine?
When stars otherwise kiss the somberness of the night?
Am I allowed to collect clouds in their ephemeral charm
And restore them their delectable delight to shed pain?
Can...

I Am
I am woman in the Realm of Man
I am inner light in a place that’s growing dim
I am strength in a time that reaps weakness
I am deep as an ocean in a dry and...

To greet the day, the sun does rise
overrun with golden flames.
To my surprise, that centered sphere
has a thing for slender dames.

His solar slopes descend on her
but a yard from where I sat.
He found for me...

October arrives
  so unlike the long dry hot summer of 2015.
Mornings are damp and cool with dewy drips of somberness
  and soft shadows fading off into the background.
A blustery chilling wind races through...

The fog has come around my house tonight
From length to width a decorated dress
The scenery is shocking to the sight 
Secluding every bone to lay and rest

"What shall I do", pondered my thoughts to ask
Inside...

Do not leave me alone in this darkness.
We rave and rant in suffering, who won’t?
Dwell in me and come help me to bear this.

Men of the world know better than this, bliss!
Take pleasure from life,...

Hey buddy
I can’t tell how you feel
How you cope and slope
How you firmly grasp hot steel
Methinks you`re courageous.
In stoic life’s state, just state
no crime!
For you have one irreplaceable, valuable
and unbreakable thing.
You!
Remember a promise to self...

It's another morning of waking up 
with your shadow in my memory 
like a ghost that hunts my thoughts 
from dusk till dawn. 

I should forget you, but I could not,

I turn to face 
The stale air of sickened hope 
To watch one last time 
Before the shadows engulf 
And turn me blind, 
I cannot breathe 
The walls are closing in 
All around me

the world starts to die just as I.
 In somberness I see the beauty of it all.
the reds,oranges,browns and golds give us hope
that the coming winter will help...

Filthy foot that once marked in the sand,
Left, right until it comes to unbounded edge.
Rest to replenish the spiteful soul, hold…
Grin that transforming in enthralling scowl.

Child that feeding in a mother breast
Astonished in a howling...

While wand'ring ghost town scenes of memories
Loose mind like shutters bang in channeled thoughts
Old haunting spirits restless and distraught
Now roam deserted streets like tumbleweeds
Dirt devils funnel, scattering dead seeds
As rattling chains of broken bonds stretch...

How can I sketch my somberness
its own reveal
I sketch it in the end of winter's
grey congeal!

As looking for some life,
some Hope to feel
I sketch my own true sadness
its ordeal!

Forgetting but by moment's pausing peel,
I sketch...

As the door closes, my clarity is lost
The somberness cured by no write
My abilities tainted by acknowledgement
An ego fed, a dread nourished. 
Truth has become vague, experience false
Passion is ignored, beseeching praise for a figment
Joy...
