Long Yeses Poems

whether positive or negative,
regeneratively sustainable
or strained out toward dissonant chaos
of runaway monopolistic monoculturalism,
which I believe economists call capitalism;

whether nurturing health or pathology,

GREAT PEOPLE:
I have observed that some of the shortest lives contributed so much more than most. We all have known of many endowed with longevity, but were impoverished of legacy.

UNSELFISH PEOPLE:

Peeling Back the Bubble Wrap

Peeling back the bubble wrap on the ancient of days, 
Back to when Nixon was still presiding,
He, leading with paranoid deliberations, 
Sold his yeses to the Goldbricks, and the Mustard Men;
And...

Yo... Man... Really? That word echoes, hangs heavy in the air/ You say "no," dismissive, a flippant affair/
 But the air vibrates with possibilities, unseized/ Two "yeses" shimmering, carelessly released/

 You could have been a...

NO certain timing

I glaze a look at the street, from

our apartment window.

 

You are coming slowly, teetering

one leg in front other, with back slightly hunched forward,

burdened with sleepless nights and yesterday’s undones.

They told me I could move mountains... 
But I couldn't even get them to budge.
They told me I could have my cookie...

poised on the brink of "perhaps,"
before unknown paths
that whispered my name.
And there, where the threshold opened

Red is the color of passion and rage
It creates a sense of infuriating rampage

Yellow is the color of joy that enlightens
Expressions of sunrises that always brightens

Green is the color of jealousy and power
Wherever it is...

Can't quite put my finger
on the actual ingredients,
 but I know it's you by
the flavorful residue.
Sometimes I cannot
hear everything you say
but I'm in tune with
your mouthful of subtle
affirmations
All of your yeses
has me attentively listening
As if...

I long for my enemy
Yesterday I wanted to
But couldn't because of the shawl
Everywhere I go is a mirror
Him that lives in me owls for a call
Worst enemy,best friend
Hate that I love you so
Beating,heating,hitting,biting
Just a piece

Mad moments mesh mind mystery;
Yesterdays yield yonder yeses;
Sight sensuous stash sync sensibly;
Thrust tensile thrill to touch tresses;
Empty emote ends each earthing;
Ready ripe rock rustling rich roast;
Yesterdays yoke yield young yawning.
Mind mulling mock moves motive most;
