Long Untwist Poems

Some people wind up with twisted knickers
When they get insulted by nitpickers
Words are sticks and stones
Causing moans and groans
When they hear heckling whispers and snickers

Women used to call knickers 'underpants'
They'd get them twisted with tauntings...

Oh God, I wish…I wish I could tackle these hardships
I taste happiness for a change…
It’s very, very strange
This feeling smothers me…
I know God has helped countless people in the bible…
And he has straightened me up…and...

The Camarilla  *part 1

She forgets every meaning of untroubled silence and fantasy
Joyful and full of spirit, indulgent ways to live a life in existence
Her unity, filled with haven never again the craven
Allowing to never...

It's dark.
Even through closed lids I've perceived the
monotonous treachery 
the day has in store.
I suppress a moan within my chest,
and my bones creak with illusory age.
Another dawn which is not
impedes upon my shallowest slumber.
The persistent...

When fearful voices in the night began to cry,
Roaring from countless dreams behind the scream,
Dribbled eyes gazing into darkness at the vast sky,
This darksome turn, down into a wet pool of frown.
 
Perhaps the living...

Amidst contortations and grimaces, lucifer laboured.
In two hours and three, the beast was perfect,
Glaring around, he cackled his delight.
"Serpatinus," he spluttered, still cackling
He appeared and in lucifer's hands, fell the snake.
With deceit lurking in his...

Twisted or untwisted,
distorted, coiled, warped,
entwinded and interwoven,
aberrancies cavort.

Sleeping in the sun room,
mattress on the floor,
we thought that was cool then,
back in 1974.

The sun's glare woke me up,
but I kept my eyes shut tight.
Still, with my...

GeorgeLuis: Deep demons breaking my heart
But I'm still smiling, trying to play the part 
Time, time ticking in my head
Now life is like walking on a thread
Feeling alone, God send an angel instead 
Real purpose...

In the realm of paths diverging, I find my weary feet

So many crossroads I have taken, so many choices incomplete

Yet the haunting memories linger, in shadows I try to dismiss

A tapestry of missteps, a tapestry...

Hands.oiled heels of palms 
pulse pushing upward 
thumbs kneading on both sides of spine
you lay face down
In warmth
Feeling them spread 
To ripple across shoulder blades
Then fingers clutch and knead
in almost individual circles
crisscrossing and working down
To...

pyramid outlines glazed against desert skyline
castles and teepees in recesses of her mind

daydreams and nightmares she couldn’t shake
through the modern world she tries to break

feeling out of whack
she struggles to look back

knowing her present does...

The bad habits still exist,
The voices I hear still persist,

I try not to listen, I try to resist,
So I keep on hearing them but I never get the gist,

My mind and heart have been fighting,...

and in my dreamy dream I walk over a hill
where the high sun above is shining bright
and find an abandoned garden growing at will
with buds and blooms vibrant-  oh, what a sight

crocuses, roses,...

I take a step back and look at my canvas with inches of acrylic paint piled on as a result of trial and error.
Something is off. 
Are the tones mismatched?
Why is it unbalanced?
Do I no...

A lack of oxygen, a stifled room
A pregnant pause, apparent gloom
Bitter sighs and angry growls
Upon her face "It's not my fault"
His wrinkled brow, "I'm not to blame!"

Past mistakes that hover now
Where pride as tough as...

As the winter slows down and the wind is not heavy

Your love holds me in the palm of your hands.



You shelter me from the storms and you keep me warm

in the palm of your hands.

I am a broken heart 
By you I was shattered 
So I tried to take back my power 
By sharpening the shards 
But as time went on 
My pieces began healing 
From hard glass ,...

"Painful"
"Unworthy"
You question why you exist

Loathing
Self-Pity
Its lies you cannot untwist

Empathy
And reason
They bid farewell

As love
And self-esteem
Also parallel

Negativity fills faster than adipose cells

Mademoiselle

Are you truly well?

No

It takes courage to say
To seek closure
To make way
For much needed composure

Then realisation...

To string three words together
And appeal to simple

Align my self with heavenly points of light
To cleanse my words of wrong intention 
Unscrew meaning, untwist perception
Incite delight

Remove pretentions built upon forms 
Neither desired nor pierced
But set...

Still... 

To be still with myself. 
This i avoid. 
It's uncomfortable just yet, 
To be still with myself. 

Too many thoughts in my head, 
For me to untwist and untangle. 
Too many memories. 
I dont...

One can't be a man 
Without having strange desires
To sleep in a mother-of-pearl shell
At the bottom of the sea
To swim and dive 
In a drop of morning drizzle
To take a delicate snail by the horns

I must find all my lost dreams and hold them,

I must gather all that is lost-  each gem,
each big dream that...

his house has 3 extra bedrooms
the queen's parlor would be for me 

see-through showers 
fresh-cut flowers
just for the smell of it 

he'd lick my pedals
run the fire sprinkler 
in the hall 
just for the hell...

Winter swirls on the morning mist  
Undulating clouds blowing west. 
Cobwebs clear with a forceful fist  
Winter swirls on the morning mist  
A snatch of red wool to untwist
Caught in an updraft...
