Long Unarticulated Poems

S/he wonders why
when we breathe in
our left sides

when our rights inside
feel LeftBrain capital deviated,

sink beneath the surface every time goaded
same event distorted until colour coded
and always bedraggled and gasping for air
terrified that this is actually fair
failings cascade like works of art
brokeness perfectly playing it's part
around each hell bubble...

I'm frightened to 'just short' of death
Frozen in unarticulated fear
Making no noise at all, looking calm
Skin crawls 
Ache in my ribs like I'm waiting to breathe
Haze to vision periphery suggestive of just before fainting, but...

Dearest Miscellaneous 

To be seen in darkness is all I ask of this lifetime. You are it, my darling - I'm hopelessly in love! You occupy my thoughts on those rare moments I engage with...

"a dagger of pain, a tear of grief" ~ by Constance La France


Only once I looked into her pale, weak face.
In white hospital sheets, she lay motionless,
A bag of bones! Her chest heaving high and...

The Measure of Greatness is lost to the world
Unacknowledged, unknown, unarticulated
By prophets, priests, and kings
And yet, the real potential exists
In each one of us
To be great

There are two kinds of people
The ones who try
In every...

A Jerky Reverie

Where is the moon just now?
The light shining from the sun
appears, to have blotted it out.
The stark darkness of a motionless 
void, where atomic debris not seen,
passes
 through it, violating solid state.
Harmonious discontent,...

I feel like I lost you yesterday.

Perhaps I overstepped
Some as-yet unestablished boundary
between Trust
and MisTrust

Between winning cooperation
and losing fear and anger
competing trepidations,

Like we tripped
over a fuzzy
dis-establishing line,
Unarticulated landmine
I am still not explicitly aware of
where, exactly,
it lies

We...

It seems dark, though daisies are open
I still see in colour, so I cannot be broken
Smears and smudges all left a mark
Though daisies are open, it seems dark

Held in embrace, are those people so close
I'm...

Vigorous, vivid, bewildering, bright songsters,
That could calmly enchant the cruelest of monsters;
Belonging to the flinch family of Red Birds,
Each of their utterances is sweet poetic words...!

Cardinal, with a unique crest and red plumage,
His maid, a...

To one who lies awake across
the watches of the night
subsumed by just the soft cocoon of thought,
I am the whispering walls that
stubbornly invade your mind again--
surrounding it
with unarticulated hope again,
provoking it with dialogue
that will not...

What was this unarticulated joy 
that beat inside my chest? 
That which was expected and is past
reflected numens chanting to my spirit, 
as if subdivided in my superconsciousness,
I may not bear them as a whole...

Free verse eludes, escapes
I cannot rein it in
Not free at all, in fact

Unarticulated words
    held prisoner by
    rigid structures in my mind

Too much is none at all, it seems
A...

I jotted down a thought 
but it led to a thought
So out of the blue 
I'm weighed down
With unarticulated ideas
I scrubbed out the lines 
That were nothing much
But the thinking created a space 
That doubt...
