uncomfortableness, and hesitation arose that you might reassess a possibility for friendship or.... whatever with me.

A disappointment set in place in the event that based on some facet of my being (inexplicable flaws within this...

In Beyond Religion
the Dalai Lama offers non-sectarian roots of compassion
to motivate global cooperative behaviors
and nurture inner mental health values.

He begins with the assumption
his readers are asking,
How and Who are we
to become more compassionate,
kinder,
more forgiving,
more health...

which prime mate affectionately called buttock blaster
alimentary explosion ofttimes causes global disaster
upon such gaseous debacle run for your life ever faster!

Yours truly (humorously dry husband)

inured, espoused blessed

I seethe with livid rage within the bowels of my being
when sitting upon the porcelain goddess ample defecation doth cling

Who we are in our minds
To show all others in this time
Janus hearts beat as mine
But what she sells outside is not the true person behind blinds

A smiling face, a light walk
Tells nothing of her...

POETRY


“Poetry is the language of 
the soul — where deep emotions 
cluster thought and feeling in
a poignant outburst of fond 
rapture — and thus, words 
sublimate in sacred ecstasy
as the vivid imagination conjures

Odd roadside stall
Newsy newsprint;
Brisk disaster sells

~~~~~~~~~


Hardware insights
Self-Help projects;
Crafty poise

~~~~~~~~~


Evening dark
Deserted park;
Empty ark

~~~~~~~~~


Primal pose
Playground excursions;
Kiddy laughter

~~~~~~~~~


Traffic accident
Human error hurls;
Proud regrets shout

~~~~~~~~~


Brisk brush strokes
Calligraphy moves;
Artwork erupts

Old miniature book
Tells another story;
Beyond print run

Another tale
Tells on you;
Business acumen

Studious at the desk, disinclination to speak,
Solid state of matter, I find impossible to pique,
Engrossed in esoteric lingo, but all in his mind,
Nonsensical gibberish, of language undefined,
 
Attempting to engage, shows no interest in me,
This...

Before you turn those sacred pages,
And corner me to a sinner's numbness,
And strike the balances as raged sages,
Remember I have touched holiness.
Before you strike similes with a smile,
And make prayers as heavy perfumed incense,
And speak...

Elegant poise
Fashion styles ideas;
Curious clutter


Ride the wind
Watch passion swirl;
Live wit and pun


Love on the run
Words come to play;
Wounded and wounding


Casual acquaintance
Each a stranger then;
Now poles apart


A sojourn here
Briefly with grief;
Sublimate into light


Hear the soft hint
In...

We can try to hide it
Most will attempt to push the thoughts down
We’re not naturally virtuous creatures
It’s quite the contrary - we’re monsters deep down

Fighting fiercely to survive

Adornment in man's eye reveals
the ego centered self-concern,
while overlooking God's appeal
is higher, towards the spirit's yearn.

So buckled with contingent seal
the use of kind, elaborate earn,
one glance toward heaven soars to feel
the otherwise appointed learn.

I murmur like a rivulet through the 
hitch of your hands, where the canyons 
carve their parched longing into your fingers—
where silences sublimate like cera,
pooling beneath your glissando touch.

Your tremolo breath convulses rough and low
like...

What is life's meaning?
What is the purpose in life?
I'm afraid humanities insatiable appetite for answers
Is creating existential angst in our lives
 
A brain hardwired on the savannas
Full of fear and aggression has become wise
This is...

I can feel us slipping away
Down deep into the emotional abyss
Instincts that have outgrown our consciousness
I say this with much remiss 

There was an intellectual explosion
An awareness that remains a slave to the drives
We have...

When I see things
Do I know what I see?
When thought hurls fling
Do I feel free?


Seeing not knowing,
Looking not seeing;
Do I look to see?
Do I  see to be?


Looking not knowing,
Seeing not looking;
Do I see to...

Debates and discourses galore
Trees and rivers are worried
Cruelty and hounding are torrid
A raped morning in the shore

Kindness smiles in the water
It fondles the skin still tender
Flying sands drop by to kiss it
Restive waves come on...

AFTER   PASSION



A heavenly  morning  springtime bliss.
Early in our day,   sun’s kiss
Wakes the frosty path we’ve passed.
In  moving  shimmering  mist  it’s grassed.
It breathes its first passion.

Memories of Them On Memorial Day

So many had died from war's long struggle
Over silent graves hear sound of a bugle
While tombstones will exist row after row
We walk through with respect and slow.

Names on each tombstone...

Having A Hollowcaust

Just thought of this after I saw your category of Holocaust. 

With my wife, we were having a hollowcaust
And as I am sure you know, I again lost;
Which superfluous show should we watch...

God is Dead?

Hubris, man's nature
A God, self-proclaimed
Nietzsche opined he's dead 
Conceit, we laugh and say, no way

Self-professed with special attributes
Sympathy, love, reciprocity; how divine
Exalting our human virtue
So convenient; unfortunately, so blind

We sublimate our consciousness
Valiantly creating...

My muse is gone, 
good riddance to the witch
And don’t come back,
you extraneous lil b’itch
Off to prey on others,
pour napalm on their souls
Sublimate good poetry,
burn stanzas full of holes 

Infiltrate kind minds,
corrupt joyous prayer
Tear apart...
