Premium Member And Today's Speical Is Wine and Cheese

"And Today's Special is Wine and Cheese" 

Some wine and cheese  
If you would please  
Depressed, I cannot express myself for I’m being oppressed and repressed  
Yet, I reside in the west, my lines are treated as an unwelcome guest
I’ve ornamented ideas that will go unheard  
Reading them will be seen as a vulture transcribed word 
“A Stale Birthday Cake,” could be submitted  
But a lot of terms are not permitted  
If I leave those texts out to describe my rage  
It might as well be written in the stone age  
Here’s an example, “           , ” substantial  white noise is found on this page 
 “The Penetralia Ruby Queen,” hint, the anatomy  
But, is there no shame, outcry, how dare I, the audacity   
It conveys about some person with a dancing nymph’s fantasy  
But it altercates against the morals of Christianity  
Here’s an example, “          , ” undeniably  excommunicated for blasphemy  
The villainous bark, scream, “Cultures Dark Theme”
It’s something written from a nightmare’s dream  
If submitted, it would drive the masses into insanity 
Yet, this piece of work prohibits the usage of profanity  
Here’s an example, “          , ” silenced because others must be spared of its inhumanity 
“The World’s Playground” still waiting to see if it gets banned  
Negligent in comprehending the rules beforehand  
The lyrics uses a word to describe a person who gets paid  
In an ideal world, I could just switch the rhyme to being laid 
Here’s an example, “              ,” my apologies for the cross realm alabaster masquerade  
Finally, “Unzipped Apple Core,” was written as a rant indeed 
Bitten by the fire ant, I was hoping it would supplant a seed  
But apparently the flying monkey festival has everyone strapped to a ticking time bomb  
Another useless firework display to a bromide poem, so turn the page to end this sitcom  
The doctor said, "Take this. It will cure the social disease” 
So, for my last supper please, I would like some wine and cheese

Phoenix Dreams In the Realm of Crows

“Phoenix Dreams in the Realm of Crows” 

wake up 
shake up 
kaleidoscope girl

jigsaw
see saw 
fit the pieces

she 
another world
away 

the in-betweeen
flows easily
through the veil

safe harbour 
opening 
portals 

for ocean steering 
curious kaleidoscope
stories to sew

the slip stitch
love knot cast
anchor’s raised

time’s racing
discharge fear
or remain

feathers spreading
in the realm 
of crows

poetic 
messengers
casting their spells 

for opening 
tombs turning 
dead leaves to tomes

in the crowded hideaway 
where shorthand, fixed tight to masts,
swings suspended for transcribing

dark nights,
where soft and fierce
treasure dwells

feathers spreading
cunning cuneiform for ghosts
who speak in tongues

transformative
strange letters 
unfurling

spreading 
deep indigo and 
jesserant jet feathers 

swords and keys 
for plundering
and opening

impromptu places
mysterious better nests 
for hidden golden eggs 

broken yoked, 
freed 
spilling silver spoons,

curl love drunk
into warm skinned 
velvet embryos

hugging new bodies 
of work, slick palaces 
for bedding 

better never-endings
never ending, 
electric muses 

flocked 
and kissing 
sated singing 

dreams
in the realm 
of crows 

the in-betweeen
flows easily
through the veil

safe harbour 
opening 
portals 

for ocean steering 
bejewelled St Elmo 
phoenix fire stories lit, to sew

the slip stitch
love knot cast
anchor’s raised

astral charting 
glossy winged stars
albatross angels 

waxing lyrical
follies and flights
ignited, illuminating 

phoenix dreams
in the realm
of crows

Love Is Bubble Blind

I picked you up like a “shiny”…newly minted copper penny 
(How cliché)
it was your kitten fur voice  (O how you would hate that) 
the avocado texture 
with which …no matter what wild wicked hour I would call you...
you would answer
You shimmered like sunlight on the forest floor of my needles of neediness
glinted off the shiny chrome and twilight blinders of my made to order 
searing searcher’s soul 
You were the perfect portent…with your torrents of torment
to wash clean my jet and emerald caves 

Or was it you who found me? 

White gem silent…hidden behind my poetry in a seat in that Inn
I was listening to the hues of blues
stenciling the deep red shards of my heart on the unlined pages 
of a blank black journal
I wore cool light blue and soft sheet cotton…like a cloud kissed sky
I was... light as air and deep as the sea
You became my heroic touchstone…my one true thing sapphire sparked rock of glory
I hung you around my neck 
I yoked myself with the weight of you
I hung myself…faithfully to my “cross to bear” -your endless denial of our love

You were lithe…thin as a straw…tall as a poplar...white as ash and grey as coal except for the orange hot fire in the center ring
 …of your cigarette

I mistook it for the flames of our unearthly love

In truth...it was just the firmament of your eternal coolness reflecting back the stars 
of my own piercing need
so yoked by my own wanton weave …I drove on blindly
the ghost of your emotionless carcass still draped around my neck
“Leave no man behind”
I know you laughed and told them
that it was just a fire pit left in the cave  
by the Queens of the Stone Age 
(Some loud angry band you loved) 
less real (to you) 
but far more ethereal bubble dreamy and ever lost in time (to me) 
than the newly discovered “writing on the wall”
*POP*

Awol In the Ixnayed Days

"AWOL in The Ixnayed Days"


Pieces of me 
were stolen 
long before 
the war 
cluster f****d 
its way
into the 
world today

The peace of me
swallowed
in the coma 
that had settled
where the buried 
mines and bombs
in the silent streets
of your mind lay

Triggers 
for 
The Others -

treason is a gift 
never to be 
considered

PSYOP 
sleep walkers 
trip wired sleepless 
grenades shot 
from a mouth 
Spitfired Hornet 
burns the well-oiled 
Molotov hurt away

wired the triggers 
to trip away in tune
tap dancing fingers
express 
the internal glitch
a torn soul, split apart
morse code signals
over keys, notes attache 

attempting 
soft diplomacy,
Kalashnikov all the way

awol’d in the ixnayed days
with the poetic legion
and their gorgon demons
dreaming of a time 
long before the poison
spoon fed from that monster, 
Betrayal, 
had its way

a note pinned
over the heart 

X

target
for a clean mark

painting pictures 
in numbers -

give it your best shot

“I Appear Missing” / Queens of the Stone Age
https://youtu.be/C9OfBcjyxKY





"Shock me awake
Tear me apart
Pinned like a note 
in a hospital gown
Deeper I sleep
Further down
A rabbit hole 
never 
to be found"

Why the Ocean Flows

A family photo session at home
Covid19 LockDown from the following day
Wavelets of domestic jubilation
Daffodils beside the sea you may say

From a newspaper made bag she brought out
Handed him the fresh yellow banana
Patches of soot and dirt on the smooth skin
Palm and fingers of the domestic aid

A forty-something diligent woman
Multitasking, as a cook and helper
Oblique glances mailing little letters
Making fruit salad with a blooming smile

The brimming moments changed in a moment
Physics into ripples of chemistry
A lilac lone time in a crowded time
A whispering breeze in the clueless chime

Heavy boughs from the laden yellow tree
Gapless closeness of the duck to water
Compulsive current in the hilly creeks
Banana soot and dirt turn enchanting

Inside the swollen grapevine of the park
Busy fingers and crazy toes at play
Sunlight and darkness kept fighting in vain
Bubbles from the ocean bottom prevailed

No brake in the instinctive gondola
The boy and girl in a dizzying high
Musky smell painting the hunting tigers
Perpendiculars and horizontals

In the cloud nine the developing chasm
In each atom the dance of micro spasm
A catharsis of stone age protoplasm
Golden wheat field dancing with the peacocks

From base to crest building up the charges
From wave to wave rushing the blue surges
From shore to shore crushing the pink ocean
From zero to absolute explosion


Overwhelmed I looked and looked at the sea
A wafting flavour of Darjeeling tea
A witness to the bliss of melting snows
Yes, "I think I know why the ocean flows"

poem :  I think I know why the ocean flows

Formidable flourishing fiends

Formidable flourishing fiends...

harangue since landing 
yours truly immersed 
in a dream-like 
fiercesome state of war,  
not quite a dream 
can be described 
as a "hypnagogic state" 
while virtually in Singapore,

where Katy Perry 
namesake of a lion doth roar
noise amplified courtesy dissonance 
while nine inch nails synthesize 
scraping across chalk board
evoking discordant soundcloud 
foo fighting beastie boys 
comprising a quatuor.

Socked away within
cerebral nooks and crannies
house mailer daemons
inconveniencing yours truly
i.e. an Indus das scribe
hub bull mendicant
bullying jimmying,
jump starting, joy riding
junket at breakneck speed
disregarding dangerous signposts

warning reckless (heedless) highjackers
speeding stolen heavily
sedated body (mine)
slap happily, obliviously,
jauntily (devil may
care attitude) careering
across rubble strewn
bombed out stone age terrain
gunning engine like
there's no tomorrow

zipping past crumpled
suspended abridged abutment
jarring sole abducted,
bound and gagged one tramp (me)
hurling over edge of cliff
temporarily free of gravity,
(albeit an infinitesimal eye blink)
between life and death
rapidly descending in accordance
with laws of physics,

when suddenly motion stops
as if thee Earth stood still
freezing all life forms
held as if invisibly tethered,
when ghostly debut appearance
courtesy Rod Serling
rattles of his trademark narration
"...fifth dimension beyond
that which is known to man.

...This is the dimension of imagination."
I resort to aforementioned loose analogy
to approximate mental state of limbo,
asper...this man falling to Earth
minus parachute on par
with crash test dummy
an absent firmament
to feel securely grounded
held stock still,

when moments before plunging
pitched head over heels...
only to find this mortal,
either entering or exiting
somnambulant state
only groggily awaking
out of deep sleep
falling out of bed
singing hup bout poor lovely bones.

Flaming Pterodactyl Pages

Did you see it?

It soared,
High up in the sky, 
 causing the blink of every eye,
loudly did it roar
 scaling tree and mountains divides.

I hurried to my laptop keyboard
 typed in google to describe this backdrop
   on the wide New Jersey  highway blacktops
but it failed to quickly reveal the hordes
 sweeping along the fields and garden crops.

Slowly did the wifi load aboard
 the internet was about to explode without stop
  a million entries scanned the sky of blue imploded hops
there was no answer to Aesop's fabled scores
 slipping into conspiracy and wild theories told with plots.

I went on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter chords
 it appeared the whole world was shaking in its jitters
  afeared of stone age times returned aflutter and aflitter
disbelief, malcontents, deluged populace discords
  when suddenly my homework burned in emitters;

Right before me, flaming pages came to be crispy smores
 a well-done ghost, 
 my homework all but blackened toast
that's my story and I'm sticking to it
  a flaming pterodactyl ate my well-done homework
just to settle all of google's scores.

In Ceuta

In Ceuta 
 
A Senegalese sat on a stone near the sea
he had tried to get to Spain but didn´t make it.
A nurse spoke to him hugged him.
God smiled down to both of them, 
this moment of tenderness.
Not so the monster calling itself the social media
they purred scorn on them.
Not only was he black and she white,
racism is alive, he was also a refugee who had sought a better life
which millions of Europeans had done when persecuted? 
when seeking work in the USA
and freedom from oppression.
Europe has become a haven for haters intolerant and obscene
a place where right-winged populism will bring us down the path
to the stone age of Nazism

A Cave Man Day

A Cave Man Day

One day long ago a cave man slept uncomfortably
The brutal sun, good for nothing, woke him up abruptly
Ants crawled all over his body and began to bite
He ate every one of them one by one
Using his fingers and his thumbs as utensils
There was no name for breakfast at the time
Or the creatures who ate his parents

Cave man was all alone and had a simple job
To find more food and stay alive
Fire had just been invented and utilized
This miracle he took with him everywhere
The other 2 gods were sun and water
Fire would be his favorite deity

The man was good at picking berries, consuming plants
All of this at great peril and certainly by chance
They could be poisonous or make him sick
All cave men had to do this to survive and take the risk
He used rocks and sharp ended sticks to take down pray
Skills taught to him by his dad before he died

Cave man was short, stout, mean, with green and jagged teeth
And made his way through Stone Age foliage
He had a bushy beard and scratched it
Wondered what he was looking at…  What was that?!
When he met a woman with long legs and tangled hair
She had nice features for a cave girl from that age

He took her by the hair and clubbed her on the head
Dated, copulated and married on the spot
What a lovely wedding day 
They moved into a cave
