Opus Poems

opus

dulcet …

the night …
holds far too few hours
to attend you, pure … proper
in twilight reverence
your body’s song is my scripture
the braille my fingers ache to read -
sexy verse moonlight recites
and orates to my blood
longing’s lullaby
spoken glyph-by-glyph
and plopped like sugar on my tongue
where it attends …
yours …
speak to me with
your coy and curvy whispers
such fair flesh

Magnum Opus - incomplete

Cantankerous cancers found my blood letting from the slit, 
Is it avarice of me to desire the love begetting of Lazarus?
Enjoying life cadaverous like forgetting the want to live, 
Is it glamorous for me to die while God desires I live? 

Forgo the solid ground, 
My feet dangled off the edge of a jagged cliff.

Opus 2025 Night Silences

two singular heartbeats
emergent with fluttering exhalations 
a tiny speck of time and temperature 
rushing nowhere beside falcons
pausing breakneck together
i hear her wet whispers kissing
caressing deep lidless eyes
my heart knows the latitudes
understands the lay of the land
bestows a feast of electric night
giving flowers of touchings
receiving tongues of fire
inside this temple of ancient desire
emergent with breathless silences
two

Magnum Opus

In case you haven't noticed I'm a poet verbal usage explosive,
Wrote it to show I'm potent while showing I'm still unfolding,
With words I manage verbs the action within observed,
Then swerves I'm pitching curves a gentleman well reserved,
I'm classic because I practice my passion bring satisfaction,
Imagine the acrobatics of circumstances enacted,
On paper with just a pen

Twisted tongue

Melancholy melody of mania and madness.
Ceaseless Swan song a symphony of sadness.
Counter to composure comes cacophony of chorus.
Oscillating operatic overture of Opus.

Last Opus

Paint in your heart
the colors symphonic
Images dancing
each note brushed with fire
Clapping and cheering
rhythmatic ovations
The prisms last opus
—concerto’s desire

Magnum Opus

My girlfriend is not a poet in  the way that most people mean. 
She is a collector of rare and valuable information. Today,

she told me about cats & the color of their coats. We adopted
a kitten recently, a baby thing with elastic legs and a penchant

for biting paper. She is the color of placing

Opus Eternum

He sat quietly to inscribe his winning piece. 
No one knew it was his last. 
But his memory lives forever 
in the hearts of those he touched.

Opus

I destroyed a lot of me
(I think you must have destroyed it too),
not being exactly who I'm supposed to be
simulating strength and walking barefoot
over coals for so long.
Guess the stores never sold
what i really needed.
I keep thinking about these confusing years
and when I touched the essence of truth,
pretending so,
that you were exactly what I expected,
or

Magnum Opus

May my greatest feat,
My magnum opus be:
That I loved whole heartedly
And extraordinarily!
May those who knew me,
Know I loved thee best.

Magnum Opus

Pieces of glass shattered on the wooden floor
I maim my pointed finger; it bleeds and runs into my broken door.  

Grief is timeless as it seems, 
How evergreen to sculpture happiness in my dreams?

I’m beautifully made but devastatingly asking,
“What keeps you awake and keep on going?”

Life is an art that is crafted under a

Theoretical Magnum Universal Opus

Pondering the unknown universe
thus far and the eternal search
for the meaning of life

If God is as we are lead to
believe is the bringer of the light

Imagine a singular simple speck 
or ray of light exploding into space
That triggers off and
