Poetic snapshot regarding immediate

commenced within fleeting electronic

**** Would like to preface my return, and many apologies to fellow poets who may have missed my absence. Though I did not have much luck in love this past year, this poem was written years ago; I think it...Read More

"Return of another Goliath, is it?"
Of Course the man was fearless
But time always decides when
Every great man shalt cease to inhale,
Run away from us and
Turn into an angel

Much cherished was the way that he
Undeniably handled affairs to do with peace...Read More

Honesty
By: Miracle Man
8/7/2019

When things go awry,
It’s man’s nature to place blame.
Accusations and innuendos,
Become the name of the game.

While ignoring the shortcomings,
In our own persona.
We explore our list of prospects,
Seeking out our next Jonah.

But when good things happen,
Pertinent facts we’ll edit.

A walk upon a path to the forest that spreads out beyond
This is adjacent to a pond that has many venues
Seeing spectacles of sun flickering amongst the hemlock trees
That aligns this path which leads to bountiful channels of awe.

It was a Saturday, October that the world was standing still, 
raining like you won’t believe and all this idle time to kill.
It’s in between the seasons now the ‘granny’ has been won,
and the cricket’s still two weeks away -...Read More

A room without a view, unkempt for many a long year
Dusty aging book slanting within a bookcase
Closet doors creaked, the wide boarded floors moaned as I walk
Adjacent to the bookcase is a stone fire place with iron kettles aside.


Am mystified...Read More

He and She

  HE
was born of a select elite
of servants, maids and special cooks
and he would read his pertinent books
so he could enter Harvard soon
to excel and reach the moon

SHE

wished to marry into wealth
her supple body filled with health

Small, Medium At Large Units...

Define paradigm since time 
immemorial does find
me defied, electrified, and generated
fascination within my mind,
despite spacious essence invisible to blind
people, or even those blessed to find
pointed laser insight more pertinent

when a visible beam shined
into infinite void of...Read More

Nearly all things
pertinent to life
are dispensed
in measured
finite quantities
money
clothing
shelter
food
water
oxygen
even relationships
and our life itself
in precious drops
moments
of time

So, thrift in
nearly all things
is merely a logical use
of these resources
in appreciation
of their value
their basic
necessity
to our
survival

But even frugality
can go too far-
when it becomes
a competition
us against them
a...Read More

Here are the French Connection facts,
Monsieurs and Madames
No need for reverse English translation,
Ladies and Gentlemen

You’re now at the yellow tape border of 
a Jurassic Park murder scene investigation

your mechanized splatter sherpa:

Prevarication permits pretend perception, presenting
piquantly piqued, pimply pimping playboy, plucky

puckish, psychic packman, pokemon playing proletarian

puppeteer pygmy, peevishly punky, plummy, plumy,
pompously pushy, pampered, prefabricated pinchbeck,
pokily plying plowshear, plodding peregrination, pied
piper pitifully peppy pornographic potato pealing,

parsimonious paradoxical protagonist, proposing

Contrived is how it is
incessantly demanding
jaw snap and tantrum
its alarming attention
offers but greedy promises
fulfilled by drooling idiots

The bubble bursting
in miming smashed flowers and peoples heads
extension cables attached
to connect their errant souls

In high rise windows
hides the ecstasy of open skies

Each component...Read More

I'm listening to my least favorite inside voice
again
still reminding me in inconsistent Yang denial
of his own internal Yin belonging
to non-violently long for resolutions
toward a more PositivEnergy CoOperation.

This time
"I don't believe in No Gun Zones."

It does echo his bad bully boy

It was 1991 and Mission Scotland had finally arrived,
My dad's big dream of being choirmaster had come true,
At Murryfield his 1000 voice choir blasted Just As I Am,
In Celtic Park 800 sang When I Survey to the Lamb.

My dad had...Read More

Impertinence of Zealotry

Impertinence
reminds Roshi Susan Murphy,
refers not only to Trumpian rudeness,
but also irrelevance
to Earth's Kingdom 
at Compassionate Hand.

I was watching "Silence" last night
about zealous colonizing missionaries
learning creolizing compassion
of growing relevant to cultures
languages
indigenous to unwashed aliens
suffering the zealous impertinence
of selfishly empowered...Read More

i follow the babble
streams of thought
with a bottom made of gravel
sand and glass melting
from the pressure set down
a deep abyss with strange creations
these libations with a rain sound
look into the pond
then fall right in
sky is the limit
even when dim
justice just...Read More

I am who I am

Were you to ask where I’m from my past my tale my next of kin

I’ve read your status updates
And admit I’m frazzled
Your mind reads like a puzzle
I’m running behind

Much uncovered 
But nothing discovered
Subtle signals. Clever optics 
Quit these tactics
I need time to recover

Some portend collaboration
My approach is one of aberration
Simple policy 
Be more cognitive
Think...Read More
