Janus god symbolizing beginnings and endings, grants wishes one may regret
A full Wolf Moon peaks illumination the 25th, rising from the horizon at sunset
New Year’s Day is celebrated, Burn’s Night, 6th is Epiphany—Magi and ministry
Up above Earth reaches perihelion, we’ll be 91,404,095 miles away from the Sun
Ancient Celtic tradition, ends the 12-day solstice, on the 15th MLK Day observed
Resolutions we won’t keep, and those we can, lest reveal emotions once reserved
Ye on Distaffs Day: From the plough soon free your team, partly work partly play

Anchored in the Aura of your loyalty, the
Breathtaking mood you enhance in me, for I
Cannot fathom the length of your love
Definitely not enveloped in envy but care
Every time that phone rings you race to it
Fervently like a worship, in offerings
Garnished with sacrifices and praises
Hammered by my hypnotic smile you hug
In, triggered by my endangering tear you
Jug ruthlessly into its source, instilling
Kindness and knowledge endlessly
Like a rugged professor, family is not
Mostly drawn out of blood, you have stood
Needlessly in my heart, because the bond
Overcomes every thorn that pierces our soul
Preciously evacuating every dead ash laying
Quietly in my heart, you have genuinely and
Relentlessly proven you are worth a million
Size too enormous to spill, your support
Tenaciously clench my wrist like a pillar of
Unraveling mysteries. You share vital
Visions and make us run with it like thieves.
Wondering amid primrose you glisten like
Xanthopetals, serenading your bloom
Yet unmarred flawlessly in Perihelion, let your
Zestful being be celebrated for being a true friend.

An allegedly assured affix
distracted by wistfulness
to assess arousal of anguish,
wherewithal shadows tackle by day
amidst thick mist, in propinquity dry wells.
carrying a titian heartbreak on my shoulder.
a gentle regret that is not a zenith dread;
brocade as taffeta, a bluesy lullaby.
spun from gentle yarns; weaved.
Striving to scale a sibilant soil surface
toward porous roots of sequoia
trapped by the force of gravity.
allow only tangerine tears to flow
from my sorrow.
Getting into the quagmire.
in quest of one's fortitude.
whilst waiting for syzygy perigee,
to occur on perihelion.

EMOTIONAL PERIHELION
Alpha rhythm
Relaxation to angst
Indifference inspired hate
Electrified mutiny. Powerful schism
Scofflaw perplexed;
Sycophantic insensate-
Brutal – inhuman – Trait
Trail of honey to lead the insects-
To altruistic rape.
Drug down into a selfless feudalistic hate.
Sadomasochistic shapes
Shadows crawl back in
And begin to dissect
Honor to inject and action to defend;
With pride, dishonor dies. Says goodbye,
To shame and regret.
The end.

It is before your very eyes
That sons grow to be men
While under the same guise
Daughters turn into women.
You have seen many births
Of tears and nakedness;
Even of countless deaths
In riches and wretchedness.
You have lived many years
From aphelion to perihelion,
And witnessed many fears
Of the inhabitants of Zion!
Oh, I wonder what you are,
I marvel at what you are not.
You are not so close nor far,
But you are a life I have got!

A dream in tune with waking world,
meanings grasp conscious unfurled,
alive alliteration aligned,
beautifully poised and perfectly timed.
Lucid dreamer weaving webs,
create rising tide that never ebbs,
perihelion pendulum swung medallion,
riding thought speed's unbroken stallion.
All the while the rising tide grows,
does atmosphere expand does water overflow,
brain makes madness meandering call,
beckoning stars to earth they slowly fall.
Full lotus seated at Everest peak,
three eye's sight voice of mind to speak,
conducting planet's orchestral symphony,
nature moves to wave of hands rhapsody.
Awake in tune with sleeping world,
meanings grasp unconscious unfurled,
alive alliteration aligned again,
pen poised perfection safe from meaningless ink stain.
