Where Crimson Bleeds Its Rose

Under a blue moon

He becomes my dream

A secret uncloaked

Emotion unveiled

A mystery revealed

Existence of warmth

between my subconscious

and implicit knowledge

..And it is there

`Neath the soft spot 

of this heart

where crimson bleeds

 its velvets

upon his bare breath

It is there 

where my blushed lips

loose their virginity

Where my fair cheeks

suffuse with rosy glow

It is there where

 fiery needs are fulfilled

Fervent desires scorched

Candlelit pleasures beheld

It is there

 where alluring visions embrace 

my suppressed memory

and take over this barren soul

As his ardent voice calls

in an enticing whisper

and  a unique accent

into my left ear

My love...

Mon petite fleur..

Mi amor...

That is a preserved time

An uncloned moment

where my unwholiness

becomes whole

That is the minute

His glancing eyes

capture my own

Only until...

Mr Sandman leaves behind

Dry proposals on wet sand

Early mist envelops the bridge

Aurora glows in new awakening

Last zephyr breeze

 fades from my cheek

Then He is gone

Forever gone

Premium Member Sorrow Fell Like Nettled Tears

To the sound of pelting rain, I woke this early morning
Upon the tattered roof, it rhythmically pitter pattered
No sunlight peeked through clouds on daylight's dawning
I saw him in a dream and those that were shattered,
and of nights I'd spent without end, remorse spawning

Windblown rain pummeled windows. On sills it splashed
Obscured was my view, vision blurred behind each pane
Howled as does a wolf, thunder growled, lightning flashed
In rivulets like rain, was the weeping I struggled to restrain
Like blood dripping from a wound, as if my heart was slashed

That night, in shadowed lamplight I'd espied on the corner,
a familiar silhouette of one whose countenance was given
Green eyes stared at me, not with looks of a foreigner 
No words were spoken as riven torrents of rain were driven
He was beyond the reach of this sad beseeching mourner

I ventured outside and into the sting of nettled showers
for just one more glimpse of him ~ that was my reason
On the street, scattered at my feet were wilted flowers
Fallacy, was an act Charlotte Bronte' would label 'treason'
Uncloaked and soaked, I stood with memories for hours

From grief I could not hide nor abide my mirrored face
His eyes were unveiled, and yet not one word did he speak
There were no spun silk threads, woven in warm embrace
He had raised no hand in farewell. A tear grazed my cheek
Without solace I would linger in portals of this empty place

I trembled, shivering and teary eyed. There was no mistaking
that sips from a tainted cup had the caustic taste of bitter gall
My impeccant knight chose as his right to claim this forsaking
Nimbus skies lay overcast without surcease of a graying pall
Fraught with an echoing ache I whispered, "My heart is breaking."

The Love Letter

Tonight I write a letter
I mail it to myself
I blow away the dust
and  place it on our shelf
Tonight I mail a letter
Address it~ 'To my dove'
Pretending it is you
Still sending out your love
Pretending its your musky scent
that smudged my silent verse
Pretending,Make believe
that we preserved the years
Those years when you have loved me
till stars forgot to dream
till the dark side of the moon
uncloaked the calla lily's
 dew~pearled sheen
Tonight I write a letter
I mail it to myself
I blow away the dust 
and put it on our shelf
Just a sweet reminder
of who we used to be
before with empty sheets
your cold night covered me
Tonight I write a letter
I mail it to myself
I blow away the dust
and put it off our shelf.

Premium Member Boundless As the Ocean Blue

The puzzle of my hallow poetry
all the words a jumble
chaotic, formless, scrambled
an uproar unfathomable.

Deep are the caves perpetual I fall
searching for words eternal
poetry unfading and immortal.

Endless as the stars that glow,
and boundless as the ocean blue;
in a shambles, in a muddle,
until, the unveiling of the veil.

Despite the cacophony, I search
through the bedlam of words colliding.

And then, an apocalypse epiphany
the unfolding of a vision uncloaked
it was hiding down deep within 
and now have spiraled up.

Endless as the stars that glow,
and boundless as the ocean blue;
in a shambles, in a muddle,
until, the unveiling of the veil.

I write with a madness and a fever
hysteria erupts in my mind
my thoughts a whirlwind of ideas.

Swirls of phrases multi-hued
a kaleidoscope psychedelic on paper
the pieces of my puzzle falling together
everlasting and everlasting.

Endless as the stars that glow,
and boundless as the ocean blue;
in a shambles, in a muddle,
until, the unveiling of the veil.

Endless as the stars that glow,
and boundless as the ocean blue, ocean blue, ocean blue . . .

Where Crimson Bleeds Its Rose

Beneath a half moonlight

you become my dream

a secret uncloaked

emotion unveiled

existence of warmth

between subconscious

and implicit knowledge

And it is there

'neath the soft spot of my heart

where crimson bleeds its velvets

upon your bare breath

Its there where blushful lips

loose their virginity

Where my fair cheeks suffuse

with rosy  glow

Where fiery needs are fulfilled

fervent desires scorched

candlelit pleasures  beheld

Its there were evanescent  visions

take over control

take over this barren soul

As my ardent voice whispers

beneath the tender of your ear

~~~ Mi amor~~

That is the preserved moment

our unwholiness is whole

The moment, your eyes 

capture my own

Only till......

Mr sandman leaves

early mist envelops the bridge

aurora rises in new awakening

and you fade away like zephyr breeze


Premium Member Disrobing Ego

To disrobe the lion’s ego, 
would be to destroy a charismatic higher light
dethrone  a regal rightous dominance 
denounce a fierce protective energy
with pride of a warrior, never repudiate royalty
forswear fealty is to renounce a king of truth
whilst in his den, uncloaked he and his lioness 
of regal virtue, love eternal and loyalty
when you engage with ultimate hierarchy, 
roars of authority warn and ward risk taking rivals
with gifted instincts,  a supreme stubborn strength 
and a keen bond and respect for his own
an affectionate and generous warmth 
confident yet cautious in their garden of Eden
defeatist disrobes the ego, only when defeated 
deep within the soul, we yearn for substance
a spiritual substance sustaining us
the creature sustains as messenger
deeper significance beyond physical form
depicting qualities from the universe
butterflies symbolize transformation,
the turtle patience, the elephant a mighty sooth,
the lion links divine wisdom and perceives truth

Premium Member Conscience

Conscience

Rattling around through the attic
 Of twisting pathways –
Buried deep in cellars
 Waiting to speak
Always present – 
 Illuminates
Returning phantoms of ambivalence
 That won’t stay out of sight;
Lies 
 Refusing to stay silent;
Rationales pushed down 
 Jumping out like a jack in the box;
Marginalizations march 
 In maddening circles of consequence;
Ghosts of indecent decisions
 Unable to rest in peace;
Sly designs of deceit 
 Slow eat away at the tender marrow;
Masks of deeds conceived in darkness
 Fear the face unmasked by transparency;
Anxiety of sins uncloaked
 Trembles at the eyes of the not yet; 
Buried bones of sneaky words
 Speak out unbidden;
Houses of flimsy excuses
 Fall like dominoes;
Hallucinations born of if only
 Become reality;
Sleep and solitude
 Look away;
Pacing arenas of grey acres
 Reject clear sunlight;
Music in the mind runs wild,
 Refuses resolution;
Ever present truths, twisted in tornadoes,
 Remain.

Premium Member Crimson Marks

Winter’s hoar…frost..
has bled the maples
Crimson, marks
the torn throat of morn.

Summer’s sullen forays
have scared the natural
blush of Fall.
Would the wood recover
from the toxic fumes of man?

Radiant the sun which bombs
the atmosphere, a blight of cancer
upon the uncloaked skin…
Mutant and mutating man
warring harbinger of doom.

Where sand and soil 
and microbes had cleansed
the refuse of man waits…
clogging the arteries of bipeds
overflowing into the roots of forest
Unarmed
Rooted
Clinging 
to the seed of an apothecary life.
Feeding on the vials unturned 
draining into the Fall finery 
a mottled military camouflage
sickly green, to burnt brown emerges.

And all that’s left of life
bleeds with the maple.
Crimson, marks
the torn throat of morn.

Premium Member The Sting of Nettled Showers

To the sound of pelting rain, she woke in early morning
Upon the tattered tin roof, it rhythmically pitter pattered
No sunlight peeked through clouds on daylight's dawning
She thought of him and of the dreams that were shattered,
of the nights she'd spend without end, remorse spawning

Windblown rain pummeled windows, on sills it splashed
Obscured was her view, vision blurred behind each pane
Howled as does a wolf, thunder growled, lightning flashed
In rivulets like rain, was weeping she struggled to restrain
Like drops of blood from a wound, her teardrops splashed

That night, in shadowed lamplight she espied on the corner,
a familiar silhouette of one whose countenance was a given
Dark eyes of a raven who had waived his right to scorn her
No vocal cawing was riven as torrents of rain were driven
He was beyond the reach of this sad beseeching mourner

Outside she ventured, into the sting of nettled showers
for just one glimpse of him, she would offer as her reason
On the street, scattered at her feet, her espousal flowers
Fallacy, was an act Charlotte Bronte' would label 'treason'
Uncloaked, soaked, she stood with her memories for hours

From grief she could not hide nor abide her mirrored face
His eyes, for once unveiled, yet not one word did he speak
A webbing of fine silk threads spun, woven in warm embrace
He had raised no hand in farewell. A tear grazed her cheek
Without solace she would linger in portals of empty space

She trembled, shivering, eyes teary, there was no mistaking
her sips from tainted cup had the caustic taste of bitter gall
The impeccant knight chose the right to claim his forsaking
Nimbus skies lay overcast without surcease of a graying pall
Fraught with aching, she sighed one word, "heartbreaking."

Premium Member Seeking Truths in Life

“as both this form and boundless space cravings of ego negated awake, 
vibrant yet nonchalant bliss drenched heart remains elated”
                                                                              ~ Unseeking Seeker

Once stripped of hubris and inhibitions,
our stygian streams will glimmer with light,
releasing us from tethered traditions
to gleam like bright stars each nebulous night.

Vibrant becomes the mind with truths in life,
once uncloaked from sorrow's dark mourning shrouds.
We're fulfilled, no vacant voids, stress or strife.
Blissful beneath skies without nimbus clouds.

Unmasked, we're drawn as a somatic sketch,
and mindful of our spiritual needs.
No motley abstract conceived as a wretch,
our hearts will exult as wheat among weeds.

Once unbound, we'll dance with terpsichore, *
as Aurora applauds our liberty.


*Terpsichore is pronounced. Terp sic o ree'
Greek Muse of lyric poetry and dance,  
as a noun it means a series of rhythmical steps
