Long Stagnates Poems

My universe revolves
Relaxation – Meditation - Reflection

I have thought- in the throes of perception, 
as I lay in the soothing arms of meditation – 
travelling through spaces of, and in reflection
as I drift in and...

Verse 1- The bags are getting smaller and the price is going up, I just spent my last dollar on some hopes of smoking up, I know this ain’t the answer I am begging for...

Toxic, intoxicating solitude,
With a tantalizing proclivity 
To slither inch by inch, or suddenly,
Back into suffocating loneliness

When will I again see my own person
Reflected back at me from the abyss?
There is a thrill in the uncertainty...

You’re lost in translation like staunch Christians,
When they’re trying to understand Hebrew inscriptions,
Truth be told there is distance,
Between Ancient Jewish Mystic Intelligence,
And Jesus pleasers delusional competence,
Because they’re blind to the Torah scrolls evidence,
Of the underlying...

oh to live a life
beneath your full potential
to know there is so much more
you could have done
said
more that you could have bled
to give others life
oh, the inner strife

mediocrity does not bode well
it's a living, burning...

You hear to many people now
look at success like it’s a crime,
that anyone who’s achieved it
only got it through acts malign.
That everyone who’s made it big
somehow must be an ‘oppressor,’
that it is all ‘exploitation,’
to dare...

I prefer my soup hot and fresh.
But sometimes I like to change it up
With something cold, like Gazpacho.
It's still best fresh but still good when cured.
But when it spoils, it's just nasty and discarded.
Poetry never...

Feeding off the weary


Castor oil concubines in deep hip hugger moons
Shouting to the vestibule in torrents filled with rage
Voices shriek in rampant screams, off key to every tune
Changing up a photograph that sits along the...

For far too long I have denied myself a life of joy, prosperity, and the understanding that I too deserve happiness despite my mistakes 

For countless years it seems I have mentally digested a falsified...

Then was the flowing time 
On its wings I could freely fly 
Across the span of the azure sky 
To the horizon of distant lands 
Soar alongside of the floating flock 
In the warm air...

Words slice the core of my heart,
Catch my breath.
Breathless.
The pit of my stomach screams with anguish.
Teeth clench so hard, they shake in revulsion.

A sudden heat wave of nausea,
Sweeps the periphery.
Weak and weaker the knees collapse...

Days are darker as I stew
My memories gradually fading
Sitting alone day by day 
My Husband gone…passed away
Now I just sit, nobody knocks

Little knick-knacks collect dust
Above my Kitchen Sink 
Dirt clings against the window
Outside collected dirt...

These days move quickly
second upon second
eating away the
innocence of youth!
Spring gives hope,
summer the bloom develops
a path to choose.
Autumn realism and
regret, winter stagnates
steers one’s mentality
to hazy days in limbo.
Waves of tears, a
conscious to cast out,
doubts and...

Christmas decor has begun to bore
Season's diminishing returns must not ignore
Ingenious craft stagnates; no longer hearts implore
Straggling trinkets of blithe, Christmas lore
To be quickly discarded or saved for dated encore
Spent wreaths fading yellow on every...

Fear of future, regrets of past 
Both have roots in our lower mind
Dwelling in the eternal now
Sparks bliss that may not be defined

Vaporised presence gentles touch
Entwined with the vast universe
There remains then nothing to seek
Humming...

Almost dried up, you nurse my skin
Like breast or sun
And leave time's imagination thin
Your heart is a web spun
For my song, the poem stagnates
Upon your love's
Rivalry of tongue.

But I have a charm too, a pain...

here we are, abiding in bliss energised stillness 
then an earthy agenda calls upon us to act
for there is a mundane task to be performed 
in as ordained in our earth life role we so...

Gypsy winds, wind their way
across deserts and plains;
whip the tumbleweeds and 
sands into a frenzy.

Nomad scorpions roam dunes alone,
burrowing deep, to escape 
a tempestuous sirocco.

In lonely places cacti sentinels 
stand vigilant day and night;

Creeks in your heart flower the moss that stagnates
blood is red rubied and frozen dead
it is protoplasmic is my guess
rooted deep check with floss
slights and rejects have numbed you sad
emotional rocks and hearty shocks
have slithered...

When will this loneliness eventually fade
evaporate , dissipate
as a clouded puddle 
that stagnates in it's stillness

Is it me ?
or , is it the world 
outside of me
that's challenging to understand ?

conversation's are broken
fore the lack...

transfixed
I stumble down
shifting halls of
my angst my
distress
a cold stale breath
stagnates and permeates
its doom
onto my essence.

beguiled
I entomb myself
in the moment
asphyxiating
flailing
clawing
grasping for
desperately
disintegrating walls.

abdicated
I capitulate to
the lair
that cold cavity
pit of dread
that
pool of tears
where my devotion
thrashes plangently.

interred
in the filth

JOURNEY HAIKU #2

Hurl of last light
Nightly shadows creep;
Weary feet trudge home

~~~~~~~~~


Temple stupas
Landmark signs;
Call to mindfulness

~~~~~~~~~


Light brunch of fruits
Diet plan works;
Brink on the verge

~~~~~~~~~


Food mall crunch
So much stuff;
Conflict stagnates

~~~~~~~~~


Journey haiku
Time for clear strokes;
Decipher meaning

~~~~~~~~~


Joyful vanguard
Not much...
