Ousting Poems

Night Settles In

      A woman is burned to death on a NY subway train
          Yawn
      Murderer Mangione raises $200k on Go-Fund-Me
          Yawn
      Homeowner is jailed for ousting a squatter
           Yawn
       POTUS commutes 37 of 40 death row executions
           Yawn
                          Night settles in ~
                          No sightings of dawn

Whispers of our soul

“Does the universe really rehearse,
emotes of heart before penning love’s verse?”
      ~ quote by poet


It had all makings of a masterpiece,
nuanced right down to the smallest detail
but the flow of symbols brought forth no peace,
to afterglow trailing the comet’s tail,
so fake adornments needed to decrease,
else maze of metaphors would make taste stale.

Soft sounds of silence, sparking like stardust,
bypassed mind and spoke directly to heart,
etching thereon light strobes, love ousting lust,
seeing thereby patterns of old depart,
wooing the void, in time gaining its trust,
that divine consciousness, then inks its art.

How may laboured breathing weave words of love,
when all save man know, grace flows from above?

The dust settles

Kenya changes forever
Not in transition but out of pressure 
Built and passed on through the bloodline 
Until it sufficed to stiffen a generation’s spine
The gloaters are deflated of their dares
And will never again conceal the affairs 
For they tried on us the bait and hook
But now all shall be an open book 

But we must endeavor to be civil
Keep our tongues and hands from evil
No rage warrants taunting your elder
No reason rhymes with ousting order
Pay your honor to whom it is due
And in days to come it will be paid you 
Strive to sidestep curse and to clinch blessing 
In light of all offense most hard pressing 

The passage of time will usher you out of youth
Bear with you always righteousness and truth 
Guard your hearts with all diligence 
Choose your demeanor without negligence 
Be honest and clear cut
And let not the land revert to the rut
Place not aside your God in your fights
For it is He who crowns with privilege your rights

 Hidden quote by: Jesse Jackson


As the daze lifts, dirge ogling at blurring.
Squalls can still be stifled by soft roving.
Heaven's pinions may rattle the birdcage.
If tame grip, end up spotting candor wing. 

Conveying of the most critical stage.
Toe-to-toe quicksand slogging on the rage
We aught stark faith in our dominant muse.
Shut eyelids bury the day's grin assuage.

We, a whiff of peace, must be shining wise.
Naught deems but that you go forward to rise.
In its purest awe, love with hope bestow.
Our scheme provides a zingy gap in size.

Grin never sink out, and not backward show.
Allow it to rise, by wings swell hefts grow.
Fear and division are ousting cross-glare.
Close fetch key vibrations to the shallow.

Obsessed by jealousy 
Overwhelmed to the point
Of no return, I reach
Out to you for comfort
Ousting repulsive thoughts
Opting to replenish
Our parched and arid love.

The Ousting of Adam and Eve

Life was a blast in the Garden of Eden for Adam and Eve,

   'Til the wrath of their Creator invited them to leave!

      They were having a ball traipsing about in their birthday suit,

         'Til that sneaky snake offered them a chomp of forbidden fruit!

Each Government Body

In them whom voted yes to this complete farce 
they had done so on their on moral grounds 
by not representing those that put them in power
violation of humane governing 
It's total defiance against democratic thinking 
there should be a general election ousting these jesters 
As I have no confidence in a government non democratically elected 
calling shots without the peoples constitutional say 
to pass bills or call for any changes within the law written 
long live the eighth and Irish democracy

Obsessive Constraints Part Two

asper the invisible nemesis – i.e. electrical 
impulses faux nattering nabobs of mien nativity 
whereat unseen thriving sensational riffraff 
quenched powerhouse ousting nestled milk
maids, or rather pressing said resources, 

sans vitality into dangerous, frivolous, 
and horrendous self destructive antics, 
where ballistic charges drugged eminent 
domain former nerve cell size occupants, 
thoroughly re-engineering sense and sensibility 

with pride fullness and prejudice on par 
with dousing one with opiate completely 
upends functioning healthily, judging lovingly, 
and managing productively versus expending 
precious time and energy self absorbed 

into manic, neurotic, and/or psychotic actions, 
manners, thoughts, et cetera, which irrationality 
got embedded within the neurological interstices,  
even as of this moment hound me 
akin to wild beasts circling ever closer 
to launch mortal kombat against their very housing.

A Trite Nihilistic Occasion - Part Two

endowing superlative creature comforts
reduce wretched survivors scant band of bare naked ladies
beastie boys, foo fighters espying counting crows
ready to buzzfeed toe kin *****sapiens 
bereft, expunged, faux invincibility kickstarting 
learning basic survival skills
forced to rescind twenty first century trappings
shifting paradigm sans primacy 
pitting dishabille helpless imps against killers
who do not shrink from ethically principled 

but give full reign to selfish callous deleterious foibles, 
gruesome harmful indiscretions 
sprouting with mushroom rhizome rapidity
ousting the  omnipresently 
(well nigh since time immemorial 
virtues cultivated, futilely integrated, lending oomph 
residentially, scientifically tendering ubiquitous DNA
foisting gabled, heralded, instilled, 

justified kneaded love thy neighbor motto
lyft ting in one fell swoop delicately 
embroidered, finely graven, heavenly ideals
no more patent leather shoes reflecting up
nor doodling Yankee staking claim to fame via feathered cap made of macaroni
thus such jingoistic, holistic, fabric ripped retroactively 
ramping atavistic simian base, 
thus leveling the playing field.

Mind Games

Let the mind games begin
Turning facts into fallacies, urgh! What a mule
Good deeds? With evil grins
Ousting an honest man, and condemning his sins?
Bright minds unbecoming, using the press as a tool
Deceiving the masses, presuming we are fools
And yet you still go on, thinking you can win
Well then my friend,
Bring it on!
And let the mind games begin

2017 President

Inauguration day just 3 weeks away,
hope Trump will be good president I pray,
draining the swamp,
after the pomp,
hopefully in his first 100 days,

News lately somewhat troubling,
Obama ousting the Russians,
new cold war,
Barack out the door,
Trump having to deal with repercussions,

Hope Trump keeps his word at all costs,
don't know how long US can last on life support,
will there be change,
will it be the same,
of meet the new boss, same as the old boss,

JFK was one of the best we had yet,
though his mentors thought they knew what was best,
Constitution prez,
meant what he said,
ignoring oligarchy caused his death,

Our Constitution needs to stay intact,
every year its more under attack,
liberties gone,
don't get me wrong,
we could become Amerika thats a fact.

This Is the Sea-Daunting and Promising

Shimmering sea, glimmering waves
Glistening waters, mirroring moon-glow

Beyond the beaches, coral lagoons
Mellow boroughs, dotting the shore

Rising sun, peaking through the sky
Day has arrived, ousting dark night 

Merchant adventurers, sail forth to venture
The deep blue hue, revealed to the crew

Vast is its reach, and cool the salty breeze
Violent are its storms, and mighty its depths 

Haunted by sirens, whose tunes take wing
Amid broken dreams, and forlorn hope

Morbid castaways, adrift or ashore
Gaze upon the horizon, dazed and confused

Perhaps they seek, an island of nymphs,
Just like Odysseus, or so they think

This is the sea, daunting and promising
Poseidon’s wonders, for all to see!

Besetting the Tempest

Besetting the tempest

Confronting the bad wind which blows 
Browbeating in its way everything that grows
Respires tolerance,peace,security long taken for granted
Ousting seeds of faith painstakingly implanted

Mislay untoward weeds of abhorrence,bribery and corruption
Infest human souls and quarry deception
Over the world prevail and hostility nourish 
Ooze into demure minds and values ditch

One contrivance and perhaps the only purchasable 
If you delve to flourish a life as feasible 
Benefit wisely,exploit that wind anew
Refrain from evil and consciousness issue

Shrug off prejudice and your way elbow 
The wind possesses several strings to his bow.

What Is We

I hide my shying face under the shadow of We

What is We?

I and I are We

In ousting,I is isolated

And I,other,get divorced

I is aqua and I is milk

We,the mix separating swans

Bonding I and I,forms We

In We:

In success,it's I

In We:

In defeat,I that's We

We,a shield in hand to hide the face of shy!

Synchronization of Time Events

Well preserved footprints in time
The lake site where man unraveled
Spells empirical claims and publishing

Ousting the religious archaic outlook on self
That old tincture in the genetic mind
Woven through fabulous tales and ceremony

Still, creatures of the deep emerge suddenly
As lightning alters the hidden atmosphere
Earth beings are processed through arranged change

History's synchronization dawns for the uplifted
Sinking through the collective raw and mystique
Amphibious brains track the new logic

Alchemy of old returns with vengeance
To catapult through sardonic mist and fate
