Unforeseen

No rules, laws or borders, killing for guns and gasoline
           This is the world order, a blackened future unforeseen.

Unforeseen dangers may lurk in the wings
Oh Lord, I have seen some fearful things,
Woe be thy providence for thus deceiving me
For what do I see? I see malevolence set free.

What a wanton trick you have played on me?
Lord, if ever thy face by the daylight I see
I’ll proclaim thy judgment has gone amiss
In the scheme of things, Man is easy to dismiss.

Premium Member The Sign of the Times

It's the lack of grattitude,
It's the wanton desire.
It's the hopeless attitude,
It's the planet on fire.

It's the cost of living,
It's the war in Ukraine.
It's the unforgiving,
It's the realm of mundane.

It's the rise of insanity,
It's the falling of tears.
It's the search for humanity,
It's the preying on fears.

It's the blatant hypocrisy,
It's the bevy of crimes.
It's the death of Democracy,
It's the sign of the times.

It's the friendly neighbor,
It's the giggling child.
It's the honest labor,
It's the undefiled.

It's the sacrifice tendered,
It's the "None Left Behind."
It's the spirit unrendered,
It's the "One Of A Kind."

It's the cop on the beat,
It's the doctor on call.
It's the teacher so sweet,
It's the light in us all.

It's the Museum of Art,
It's the March of Dimes.
It's the hopeful heart,
It's the sign of the times.

A Digital Karma

I hover in a meditative state;
Delaying my awakening from this virtual cell;
A listless conscience mutates a myosphere;
Contemplating the zenith of an urban meme.
Unfettered by loose social structures;
I channel energies to locate a pulse exact;
Murmuring the karmic mantra in a trance;


This is the age of the avatar Me,
This is the spirit I want to be,
This space, this place, this entity,
This is the truth I seek to free. 


Neon pulses react to stimulate;
Expanding digital symphonies with new zeal;
I project the conscious I in a nanosphere;
An imperfect narrative succors the wanton stream.
Protected in this matter of vague contours;
I promote something sensual but also abstract;
Prompting the homage in a collective chant;


This is the age of the avatar We,
This is the spirit we want to be,
This space, this place, this entity,
This is the truth we seek to free.

"PARIS"


Her perfume follows him
from room to room
Lily-of-the-Valley-Roses
lingers in the corners 
of his mind, the hollow of 
his neck
a soft kiss some hot moment back
in time, a vintage tune

Breeze blows her curtains
wide open 
her streets of soft pink velvet
pulsating
Cherry Blossom,
her Empress Trees
all her rapturous city's noises
sway in time to 
all his heart’s 
crying voices

Her Church steeple, 
his place of worship
god’s altar
drink her wine
his hair ruffled
genuflection, 
Choir of Angels sweet cry.

Spring rain softly caressing
his Winter window panes
stained glass
Cognac Kisses, sweet
nude vertigo
luscious dream, 
wanton blisses,
his last golden
Libertango


(Lovejoy-Burton/2018 Jan)

Primal Beat

merciless genocide 
     slaughter of native peoples 
     wrought with (super) wanton zeal
feeble ability to thwart 

     "discoverers" rapine wicked onslaught 
     merely ratcheted wrecked webbing 
wrenched tribal unity, 
     violently rent asunder 

     vibrant indigenous linkedin weave    
rendered sacred weltanschauung 
     decimated "noble savage" 
     woke wretched nightmare, 

     sans pock marked worsted weal
the Native American holocaust 
     shrouded in whitewashed veil
tragedy trampled truces 

     triggering tearful trail 
scoped scattered remnant 
     snuffed out via surveil
futile sympathetic remonstrances,
 
     viz rant and rail
hermetically sealed 
     dirty deeds done dirt 
     blunted, cheapened, 

     and deadened 
     lance armstrong to quail 
most definitely coloring faces 
     of captive 

     American Indians deathly pale
into figurative coffin 
     got hammered 
     rusty nine inch nail

subpar critical population mass 
     for survival, plus storied "red man" 
     bereft of ample potent male 
off limits to original proprietors
 
     forced to hightail  
happy hunting grounds o'er hill and dale
becoming desiccated bleached bones 
     devoid of awful, pitiful, 

     and sorrowful fait accompli
and roaming spirits 
     like banshees bewail
grievous shadow a blot doth cause me to ail!

Premium Member Aphrodite

Aphrodite, the goddess of love
 Breathed a charm on my skin
  Telling it to feel like it was dancing
   When the one I love happened 
    Within sight, where I could embrace
     The sweet tenderness of his heart
      This feeling was a deep passion
        Leaving me with a feeling of allure
          The assurance that I was fertile
            Like a lush and abundant meadow
Rich in protein and vitamin extracts
 Alive with pure, potent abundance
  Never barren or lacking intimacy 
   Certainly not fearful with a cold timidity
    Always filled with insight, wisdom and hope
     That this moment would bring me
      Into the presence of sweet, tender ardor
       Beliefs that would take me leaping
        From worry and anxiety to pleasing poise
         The knowing that everything that comes
Within reach ~ love that is so sweet ~
 Arises from destiny’s promise to me
  To believe in the joy of a love that dwells
   Inside me and my adoring companion
    The one who has felt the effects of love
     Brought about by the goddess’ arrows
      Sent straight through my heart’s center
       Enlightening, igniting and inspiring
        With feelings and thoughts which color
          My entire world with embers of desire
Wanton need for the pleasure I seek
 When I feel close to this amazing person
  Who enriches my life with their presence
   And shoots stars of yearning warmth
    Through my body, my core, my depths
     Where every joy is abundant and fulfilling
      The craving for someone who feels devoted
       Who dreams and believes and cares for me
         The one who loves them without conditions
           And feels like giving without any strings
Feeling closer than a brother or mother
 Like intimacy has opened it’s whispery breath
  To murmur pure bliss through my breast
   Love like this knows no limits ~ it is completion!

Premium Member Her Memory Within

I hold her memory within my heart
Of a time when days flowed as a river
When her hunger pierced like a lover's dart
To cause passions to pulsate and quiver
This love was born from our deep dark sadness
And burned the bloom from our lover's wishes
To fill love's cauldron full, with our madness
From love's starved wet mouth of wanton kisses
Deep was the shade from this fleeting fire
That scorched our flesh with white bellowing flame
To find ashes only from our desire
That left us alone with no one to blame
This velvet lover I can not sever
I will hold her memory forever

Hiroshima N Nagasaki

Seventy Three Years Since 1945
(August 6 and 9 respectively)

Robert Oppenheimer manned 
"The Manhattan Project",
a top secret World War II mission
which constituted "Little Boy" codename 

for a uranium gun-type atomic 
bomb dropped at 0815
exploding 580 metres above civilians 
with15 kiloton blast yield reduced 

400 year old city to dust
Colonel Paul Tibbets, the pilot/ bombardier 
of the Enola Gay (the Boeing B-29 Superfortress
unleashing nuclear warfare 
seventy three years ago today)

 gives cause for this baby boomer to revisit
mentally, the annihilation, 
extermination, incineration 
the first of two storied Japanese enclaves

realizes how trifling my current bout 
with mania paranoia, pneumonia 
(from northern exposure)
contrasted with sinister malevolent 

evil tower ushering
thermonuclear age epitomizing 
coup de nada so graceful means 
maximum military mutilation

though unwell, this inflammation poised 
to be cured unlike subsequent 
generations of victims
who survived atrocious, egregious, hellacious, 

judicious slaughter can only 
poorly be described
by this mortal with a curable 
bacterial/viral infection 

aghast at such wanton killing, moreso
via weapons of mass destruction 
more devastatingly grisly than 
those "experimental" bombs

loosed upon the innocent population, 
whereby 75,000 people killed or fatally injured
with 65% of casualties nine years 
of age and younger 
whence offspring of survivors

evincing excess genetic anomalies
with fiery windy surface 
temperatures topping 4,000C
upon terrain hallowed by ghastly 
horrible deathly dominance 
amidst shadow of a mushroom cloud.
