Long Transfused Poems

We have come to you
Like the sun to the cloud does
Anything you can afford
Please,do,spare us.
We've been under this bridge
even the ants gossips us
Because we share the same meal.
We have come to you
President soldier,Pastor Navy
Money,nuts,fruit-
we'll appreciate!
We...

After reading articles
published within April 4/11 2022
of The Nation
I challenged the efficacy
taking prescription medication
categorized as SSRIs 
and/or SNRIs.

Unpleasant side effects

We came here pretentious, egoistic, hyper-inflated with our meager academic laurels and
filled with self-adulation of our GPAs
You saw us plainly; our minds almost blank like a tabular rasa, but you saw potential and
so gently humbled...

“Inheritance”



Where do I go?

To meet you
outside of 
complicit 
words...

I dream of 
bigger things
than numbers
and sharp talons

bells jangling 
ankles tempted
by better things
running

flight of the fleeing
hooded
tethered
birds

Freedom, 
Words.

Just 
Freedom words.

Courts of law
and felons;
I remember 
the night you arrived.

Deliberation about courting death rooted
throughout mine psyche fueling sinister chortle
at least since bout with anorexia nervosa,
but... maybe ginned blood,
sans umbilical cord transfused in utero aortal,

though long since recovered, the intractable,
haunting specter, sans grim reaper
intertwining within...

We have all noticed that things are getting bad again,
I know things will get better, but I don't know when.

While clutching at my arm
As my blood transfused
I first pressed the alarm
Struggling to find the door...

I remember yesterday, 
You became human through breakfast and poem
As if desired to be a transfused memory
Next to where I discarded you,  

Unnoticed, a incomplete short story, 
Some lack of narrative.

I remember the nurse,...

I remember the dream of Austria
As the war for me was finally closing 
High in my turret upon the Sherman
I entered this mountain paradise at last
Until I reached the earthly gates of hell

Within those eyes...

As I awake with light and cries of my own transcendence upon my eyes
I transition to transfer transfused dull interactions into something transparent
Cause I'm sick of these kids with wit that think they give gifts
So...

You hold her for ransom…

She knows not of your guile
Too young and too in love to see through your smile
Played as an instrument while you write the score
You buy her affections and drag her heart...

Coagulation Starter – 3-28-24
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Coagulation

Finally, my blood began to coagulate,
Flowing like insomnia
Between the wounds of dawn and dusk
When wounded memories drip pools of enigmas,
Fleeting gossamers of absolutes,
Drying into sticky puzzles.

Bloodied dreams wander labyrinths,
With no exits,
Leaving spatters...

« Finally my blood began to coagulate » (imagine that!)
New contest’s bloody theme by fellow Matt! 
My instant fear that by the wicked fate 
I would sure bleed to death right off the bat. 

Once the quirky...

Inner child, forever confused?
Puzzled by alcohol misused.
His angry dad when so infused,
Did with hand, belt and bat abused.

Inner child, cruelly accused,
With arms and hips then deeply bruised.
His ‘self’ reduced and made diffused,
Mental pain left talents...

BEYOND THE REAL
yet
 rooted in reality
   on display

infused
with the subliminal
a
transfused  but
   a separate
internal creative
   vision

     blending
external sensation
this anchored
   perception
extrapolated&
 evident
orchestrating
the
simplified patterns
of beauty itself

    the dramatic
subordinate
   yet serving
  to

THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two...

Her back to me, she gazed transfixed
at the poplars through the window.
Should I intrude? Then she turned full,
	full of tears.
I'd seen her before, masked and tubed,
transfused, others striving for her;
no expression, without outlook, 
	so dormant.
Now...

My own intent, transfused with some regret,
adventures teaming forth, conditions set
still rally hope, a virtuous trial's inept,
so faith in love begins a journey's kept!

Almost consigned to destiny, so swept
with innuendo's challenging's accept.
I gather strength to...

I stray onto sacred ground,
The resting place of souls by gone,
Solace is what I seek,
But there is no solace,
No succor to be found,
Not here among broken, fallen stones,
Nor bent, wilting trees,
I search for you under...
