Action And Reaction

Isaac Newton is said to have stated,
'For every action,
or force in nature,
there is an equal and opposite reaction.'
And the proof in his pudding is...
If I exert myself
in search of who knows what I want to be,
it also brings to bear
an equal and opposite influence on me.
As, by doing so,
my own headwind I create,
which inhibits my

ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ASPHALT stupefying vision

If the people against, the true deniers
could change life
and rebuild the world, they:
Would erase all progress
that exists today,
and return to a nonexistent "glorious
time" of the past...
they would create a world of their own...
where the strongest
would command everything...
There would be a democracy
only for them, where they would determine
who should and who should not...
where permissiveness would reign

The Opposite of Love: Use

My heart has been crushed, without a single touch. 
What the ones give me power, is now my crutch.
It was given with love, such an honest, strong heart. 
Then snatched from my being, and torn all apart. 
I gathered the pieces, the best of my ability. 
I fear what the once gave love, now only

Waiting

I’m lying here
In my broken bed
That’s caving in 
Under my nothingness
Waiting (not patiently)
For my pregnant brain
To quiet down
Waiting for the
Swishing sound
Between my ears
 To finally cease
Waiting for your light snoring 
To begin, so that mine
Can take over
Waiting in my broken bed
That’s caving in
Under my nothingness
But I’m not alone
You are there
On your side 
Of the caved

The Irony Of Life

Things mostly happen in opposite,
It often takes noise, to appreciate silence,
Pains and heartbreak to understand love,
Absence to value presence...
And sadness is require to know what happiness truly is.
Such is the irony of life

The soul is born old but grows young, 
And the body born young, and grows old...
That is life's comedy

Morning from Shadows

A fellow poet says
don’t start a poem
with looking out the window
but I am—

I am
looking out
the window
to see the lawn
outside my window

A neighbor says
there are too many 
verses on love,
but restless
I tap laptop
keys to compose
another. 

My friend
who transferred
from where I work
to another place—

I saw her last week

and I’m lost reflections
of being with
and without love.

Glimpsing the Future

“We often throw away what we still have so as not to regret what we have already lost.” - Luigina Sgarro


Black is white’s shadow.
Day is night’s despair.
Morning is evening’s dare.
Thick is thins embrace.

Love is hate’s defiance.
Hope is desperation’s death.
Light is dark’s sadness.
Life is death’s contrast.

Beautiful is repulsion’s misfortune.
Affection is loathing’s imp.
Joy is sorrow’s memory.
Laughter is

I May Or May Not Be Opposed - Contest

From crashing waves he emerges with the clarity of a wide landscape
The king of darkness
Parades
In full view
His garish, monochrome ego
Emergent for all to despise

Original poem (extract):

"Into the ripples of the horizon's haze
The queen of the daylight
Slinks
Then is gone
Her wispy train of colour
Vanishing"

Impossible Mission To Sleep On Opposite Side of Marital Bed

Impossible mission to sleep on opposite side of marital bed...

Oddly enough even 
when frolicking in the autumn mist
with seasoned super tramping 
cheaply tricked out goo goo dolls
some resembling Indigo Girls,
one foo fighting beastie boy
unable to adjust snoozing 
on the left bedside.

Don't ask me why,
cuz we (all the barenaked ladies

Opposite

Opposite, 
How stroke of love is?
loving after first sight,
someone of opposite feelings, 
mind and thoughts. 
flummoxing after being turned down 
very hard to get the picture of the outcome.
jealous expanding its dimensions. 

Opposite, 
How stroke of love is?
emotions are natural, 
it is sometimes hard, 
hardly to convince 
a person of opposite belief
feelings and principles
