Premium MemberFeral Woods

A jaunt into the mouth of feral woods
to grow the most intimate connection.
Eldritch whispers through the trees,
let’s scare the boys with our smile.

To grow the most intimate connection,
fall upon the sword of a diamond mess. 
Let’s scare the boys with our smile,
cat-calling and out of control tweaking.

Fall upon the sword of a diamond mess,
crystals just sparkle brighter broken.
Cat-calling and out of control tweaking, 
this will be an hour to remember. 

Crystals just sparkle brighter broken, 
imperfection magnifies the prism.
This will be an hour to remember, 
buckle up and get ready to ride. 

Imperfection magnifies the prism,
eldritch whispers through the trees.
Buckle up and get ready to ride,
a jaunt into the mouth of feral woods.

Premium MemberDebris Of Decrepit Heart


“The fervent garden grieves as the frail flowers called love 
enwrap the shards of broken heart” – Quote by poet 


The rhapsody of rainbow morphs into morose mélange,
bleeding colors bleached from the twilight zone clouds 
that rainstorm daubs as blemish on dilapidated essence   
when the shades of grey paint the frayed linen of love.

The requiem of roses resonates in melancholic medley,
the petals pine for dripping tear drops of mourning dew, 
desiccating in somber sunshine in the deserted mind,
while the fallen flowers make frail bouquet of passion. 

Cacophony encapsulated in the cauldron of mute melody, 
chaotic symphony dismantles on the discord waves of desire.
Strained smiles sneer the scarred scenario of the senile life,
music turns to convoluted noise echoed by the battered soul.

As you drift away blowing a devastating storm of apathy, 
my fervor is fragmented to lie in the debris of ecstasy.
The lattice of life seen through the languid cynic lens
magnifies into the crooked contortion of decrepit heart.

Premium MemberPanic Attack


You leave the safety
of your front gate
and enter into fear.
The early morning quiet
magnifies your every movement 
into a noise - footsteps,
breath, the sound
of arms scraping
against a coat.
You don't want 
to be heard.

There is nothing
to hold onto 
in this ocean of streets,
houses and motorcars.
The world is bottomless
and beneath your feet
there is terror.
You are now
too far out.

You try and hold 
your breath
as you begin 
to feel the panic grip.
The mind thrashes
in a pointless effort
to surface but you
are too deep.
A scream gets stuck
in your throat.

Somehow you survive,
get washed up
feeling wrung out 
and alone
on the shores
of yourself.
Beached between
guilt and shame,
you hide
in that familiar place
you keep coming back to,
time and time again.

Premium MemberMIRACLES MIDST MERCY

miracles move mysteriously
midst faith's momentum...
my life of mirth against misery
molded by God* so mighty
marked with His wondrous mercy
magnifies such marvel

*Psalm 77:14 - Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.

Premium MemberEschewed Essence


Rhapsody of rainbow 
morphs melted 
into morose mélange,
scattered in sullen sky. 
Bleeding colors bleached 
from twilight cloud 
ruinous rainstorm daubs 
as derelict blemish 
on abandoned shards 
of broken heart.
Shades of blue 
permeate pining
frayed linen 
of lost love.

Requiem of roses 
resonates profound
in melancholic concerto.
Drooping petals languish
for dripping tear drops 
of mourning dew, 
desiccating dismayed
in somber sunshine 
in deserted mind,
where for bracing 
cold desolate stone
fallen flowers 
make bouquet 
for deceased passion. 

Cacophony capsuled 
in suffusing cauldron 
of mute melody,
lost in tempestuous sea
of incongruent tune,
chaotic symphony 
dismantles harmony
on discordant waves.
Synthetic smiles sneer 
scarred scenario 
of lonesome life.
Sanguine songs turn 
to convoluted noise, 
echoing in solemn soul.
Lattice of life 
seen through 
languid cynic lens
magnifies mystified
into crooked contortion 
of eschewed essence.

THE DUST HAS FALLEN

Ploughing of resources 
Amazes the universe 
Should have been done
Scattering of the clouds
Magnifies the sky
Should have been noticed,
The soul,


It is the way
That showed the world 
A sweetness of the voice
It is the respect 
That amplified the individual 
A representation of who you are
The truth,

Movement of the mountain 
Shatters the atmosphere 
Should have been collected 
Sequence of the sea
Formulates the personality 
Should have been captured 
Once in a lifetime

Premium MemberWho do you think of

Who do you often think of?
Is it God?  Or is it man?
Should I think of God?
That is a funny question 
Should your problems be of God’s?
Or should your problems be of man’s?
The higher One?
Or the lower one?
You choose
Set your mind straight
Choose one?
Or choose many?
Serve God?
Or serve man?
God can take you far
Man can lead you to a standstill 
God does not stumble you
Man will lead you astray 
The roads God leads lead to life
Man’s roads full of gravels and consequences 
God edifies 
Man magnifies
Full of sorrows?
Or full of sun?
Light? 
Or darkness?
The narrow way?
Or the high way - your way?
Be of solutions? 
Or be of thorns?
God knows

Premium MemberEarth Interval


     Typecast pivot rips past apart
     Scars inflicted by the furnace 
     Scatter derma with war stars
     Astronomy faraway magnifies 
     Little shards of light filaments
     Filtered shadow breaks brittle 
     

     Tucked amongst terra, tubers
     Crowd needy until seeker turns
     Space ahead academy shunned
     Parallel gripped group tightens 
     Outrage stoops, begger’s plight 
     Entombed below fossilised earth

 
     Dust skull sockets consumed
     Grazing on ash grain garbage
     Gamma ray gardener unfazed
     Leans into lambent movement 
     Moonbeam harvest penetrates
     Microscopic split creates twins


     Mind unbound by tribulations
     Scales ether, nova knowledge 
     Constellation inured in growth 
     Reaches for chaos, apex prime
     Shivers bravely beyond Pluto
     Fragility faces future undiluted

papillon

a glass magnifies

small lapdog
butterfly
landing perfectly
on a flat nose

the glass pushes detail
into a wide eye

the picture is a thumbnail

maximum enlargement
knocks over it digital frame

the butterfly
is mottled yellow and brown
a stand-out contrast to
the black nose

a background
is a female hand in mid-flight

we are all caught

It Snowed a Little Last Night

Sleepless I listen,
a muted winter magnifies
the slightest sound.

Snow falling,
snow walking over snow,
snow speaking -
wordless
as it plays a stringless harp.

Whispers of peace and death,
still night,
an ice sculptured air.

When dawn slips into
its many coated reality,

this silent symphony;
the unread simplicity
of falling snow

will have to bury its tongue.

Always Speak The Truth

Always Speak The Truth

Never tell a lie, speak the truth
Don't feel shy, speak the truth

Truth is grace, with shining face
Reflects one's glory, fills personality space

Truth is love, truth seed sow
Truth is gold, glitters and glow

Success in truth lies, which touches the skies
In testimony when spoken, it gives surprise

Truth verifies and dignifies, truth testifies and horrifies
Truth magnifies and glorifies, truth surmise and beautifies

Truth is power, odors of flower
Truth is dignity, each minute each hour

Never tell a lie, speak the truth
Don't feel shy, speak the truth

Put Me In Coach

I've practiced this moment 10,000 times 
It won't go away instead, it magnifies in my mind

Late nights and early mornings... I know them
Working,  honing, tweaking, and reworking... I embrace them

Put me in the game, coach 

Silly,  frivolous activities I have absconded and do abscond
Studying, listening, observing, and preparing are my fun

Battle scars, cuts, bruises, and bumps from practice... 
I have them
Dedication, devotion, focus, and Yeoman's work... 
I honor them

Put me in the game, coach 

This golden moment I've longed to see
A thought,  a wish,  a goal, a dream is now a reality
Far,  far away from before
Now, right now there is a new lore

Put me in coach 

I'm ready
