Long Suppleness Poems

I
Yours is a mystery no mortal man can comprehend,
and your name which I mistook for my sister's, is a riddle
that would remain unsolved…
I have searched and searched within the recesses of my heart
since we parted...

Are you a threat?

 

You come from the ominous warning of

dark and heavy clouds as if a cry 

when the burden can't be held up

by a mourning sky...

 

You drop so sudden, no time to...

If i fell apart, would i really die
If you found out i got hurt, would you even cry
Why am i alive, i wish that i could die,
The horrid pain of death, needles in my spine
This...

She stared up, intently, watching the Peruvian skies pass composedly above. She was dazed and disorganised about the steps leading her hither. Her eyes descended upon her hands, hands that were dry and sallow from...

his mouth was wide open like a whispering heart

‘bring me sex drugs rock and roll back the years’

but prayers went unheard and the little blue pill

failed to arouse healing and he went flaccidly home

from the...

In the denizens of the grey-haired.
Suppleness lingers, yet love is not shared
Around a suitable quantum of melodrama
A tangle of tales, deriving roads to nirvana 

Their quest looks to boost their path of...

If I could choose the right way in the right situation,
I would choose you. 
You’re a picture perfect screen on a rainy day. 
I was easily lost in the suppleness of you arms. 
It's perfection...

My heart will gladly express gratitude for yielding.
The day's fulfilments grasp an epilogue wielding.
At the point when my eyesight would rest placidly.
Distress is being waged elsewhere so abjectly.

Through the ambiguity, a sparkle of spirits is...

It all began one afternoon

The ground was hot and the world seemed bounded
But up the sky the boastful sky bird glided gaily
Enjoying the boundless splendour of the universe
Huh! If only I had wings like that...

October vortexes
      summer

   with steam 
     auburn haze
Keats poetized 
   musings of

   In windswept

Today one more page is shorn off from the book of my life.
On this day of humble rejoicing, my heart brims with gratitude,
For I am granted one more year and the priceless gift of life,
When...

Political pressures had not been tyrannizing me,
Nor out of severe social strangulations, I did flee;
The I in me and me in I, decide my death decree,
Owing to these I've been a cursed nomadic refugee...!

It was a cold and muddy day
as Gertrude lay smiling.
Just the kind of weather 
that she adored.
She could splash around 
for hours in the glop 
and guzzle up 
all her shlopp 
when it was time.
Oh...

That About A Face

Previously responsible concerning an adolescent resplendent facial hallmark,
Awarded to privileges and sanctioned embellishment favoring enhancement,
Over time, years chip away unnoticeably o'er worn breathless moments,

Taunt texture of an arduous youth evaporates in a...

The most social thing on earth
Social than the Social Networking Sites
Tall with straight uniform trunk
Unbranched trunk topped with a
Tuft fanlike or featherlike leaves.

Cresting with a plume of long feathery fronds
Making a graceful silhouette of unique...

Does it take time for the sun to extirpate the dark night?
Or to ease its fire form to make the plight of farmers, light?
Can't a storm take the form of a tornado and revolve?
Or blow...

My rampant feet crush the sand.
Feeling the suppleness of the land.

Throwing light on the ocean of desert
Looking for help; hoping to revert.

My voice returns finding no one in the distance
A bird, an insect and not...

I remember fitfully,

Those verdant fields their
Yellow brushed cotton tips,
Gyrating, swirled to beauty,
sighing, undulating minute blades

infintesable allure wafted
on those white wattle nights,
even drained of sustenance
it still motioned to flower

as I am drawn to nigh.

Jaundiced paddocks replace

MY NATURAL BEAUTY
O bizarre beauty,
O eclipse of a perfectly contrived creature.
O rustful  bonny frame cladded with muck,
Made  fleshy with its suppleness as lime soot.
O dark glinting hair like fleece interwoven, that soon
Would turn...

Nature ages like Youth,
a bougainvillea wrapped 
around a strapless watch.

Youth doesn’t look at the clock
but ignores passing hours unknowing,
innocent of the melting water.

It leaps and lunges without fear of a fading silhouette,
it smiles with missing...

Spring is like childhood
Time to grow
Develop roots
Experience the warmth of the sun
And bathe in the soothing rain.

Summer is like youth
Grows stronger
Roots sink deeper
Heavy rain and wind
Will not deter him
If he has
Strong and deep roots

Autumn is...
