Supremacy

“their freedom of width, yet not of height 
Descends, through the transpiring fright 
Which enraptured them, in a cage of night 
, never once, I would abide 
Preachings on the repugnant walls 
 That seems to repulse the oppugnant  scales
That never pleased the reluctant deals
 Our seats of blank, yet never brown
 Generalize the glistening rounds 
 Defining their  conditioning bounds
 While they plead their case while it is already found
 Why? Have I not been Forthright?
Or the inhumane seem to be sincere with their smites?
their aggression seems to have been deluded with oppression 
Always retelling their feeble progression 
Yet, their misconceptions dominates their suppression 
As they limit out my gushing faith 
It remarks a cackling date 
Which is what they used, to cover their inefficient wait”

Strange Days

Oppugnant and invert, 
are the faces of consciousness,
so systematically permuted, 
are the intergalactic fences.
When talking to nature,
walking the trails of great explorers,
while taking a troll around, 
and submerging in those dances.
Distinct is the face of nature,
For the man, machine and transients,
A play it is, of the heavenly pieces,
of perfect music, what are the chances?
The musings of nature, so calm, quiet, divine, 
An art is it all about, a collection of strange instances.
