BREAKING POLITICAL MEDICAL NEWS
AND HORRIFYING CONSEQUENCES

It’s evident that
The POTUS requires urgent
Mind-dialysis:
Removing bigotry and 
Political injustice!

Otherwise, justice 
And democracy will die 
From his bigotry: 
Leaving behind a nation
Ruled by bloody oppression!

And this just came in!
Throughout the country today,
Gas stations closing:
Driverless electric cars,
Populating the highways!

Premium Member UNIVERSAL LOVE

Mother Nature blesses her biosphere with a universal love
given freely too everyone and everything upon her Earth
Meaning she treats everyone and everything as equals
believing everyone and everything has worth….

If she can show this universal love to everyone and everything
through the evening… and all day long….
when it comes to the humans populating this planet…
I wonder…where have we gone wrong?

Premium Member Fall of the Prophets

Blossoming heart of the cosmos’ union, 
With every connection to interstellar waves. 
The path of All seems to wander aimlessly, 
Leading nowhere except the oasis of mind. 

Esoterically challenged, by the ambient soul, 
We shine brightly in the spiritual realm. 
In this physical form we are deluded, 
To thoughts of limitations, we stop evolving. 

Memories of past lives, in some lie extant, 
Pushing back those intuitive emotions. 
Believing that all can be quantifiable facts, 
As artists strive to bring the magic back. 

Falling behind while we waste our time,
Weighing the pros and cons to life. 
Examining the exterior of the world, 
Our direction now we believe we have found. 

Populating propaganda like needing war,
Closing the door on the prophets before. 
Seeking out wisdom from others that talk, 
No longer do we run, walk or crawl.

Absence of Self-Definition

There is something in me.... me...not me... and the presence of both... the lack of both and many other variants, the undefined state of unallocated consciousness ...The poor structure of low integrated personalities.... like a warrior trying to break thousands of mirrors to defeat his nemesis and he broke indefinite number of them, still not able to find the one who has done it to him...forceful embodiment, no one gave them the consent to squeeze the vibrating energy of life into this malfunctioning, self populating bio robot...now we are in our personal prison cell driven by hormones and false priorities...crawling from day to day...the time is only the attempt of measuring the impermanence...the core of existence beyond the time still out of our reach...

Premium Member Ghosts Populating the Attic

Achtung!  Ghosts populating the attic
Electricity fills air with static
Normally buy a new house
And worry about a mouse
But footsteps upstairs are so emphatic


Premium Member Sky Beings

Sky Beings

Present since the day of creation,
They define the firmament
Populating the night sight sky 
In ever changing relationships
As Galileo’s sphere revolves on it axis 
Only to reappear for the same journey each night.

The focus of fascination and the focus of anthropomorphism
They populate Native American myths and legends
Recited around the dancing, leaping fires as they send their sparks skyward
In the otherwise ink black night.  

The above people, sky beings,
Were venerated in those stories which draw us 
Both inward and outward to the wonder suspended above.

One can only imagine and try to recreate the scene, the stories of
“How fisher went to the sky land” (Ojibwe)
“The quillwork girl and her seven brothers” (Cheyenne)
“They that case after the bear” (Fox)
“Women who married star husbands” (Chippewa)
“How Spirit dog made the milky way”.

These among the others,
Give breath and wonder and magic in the silent night darkness
To the sky beings above.

Premium Member Fog

venous fog wraps around oaks populating the neighborhood

                                                       — shades lifting

Premium Member Humanity Hell Bound- -

Humanity Hell bound
'Humanity!'  O, 'Yes humanity!'
You warned me about your insanity
somewhat louder than the Christianity
you warned me about the inhumanity
My wrong choices
My determined hard core voices

That evil hopelessness – our evil that’s in our hearts


I have dreamed of the people
and the ignorance never populating
Genocides,
 Killing off souls trying to hide
I crave the barbarous, barbaric bigotry
through which came lacking, lacking, lacking
Biting, hitting, kicking, licking
Me?

Deep into that darkness massing
Is it HELL?
Will all humanity dwell?
And the patients never imparting
Those desires of the hearts lost in…
 ill humanitarian hither hospitalizing
Back into my memories bisecting
Dissecting spirits and dreams
Demons ridicule and laughing

much I marveled the magnanimous, what flocking
Death shall bring occupants
While I pondered, Malachite and mocking?

Premium Member Git Back Satan Get Your Hands Off God's People-

I heard humanistic, lonely tapping;
You warned me about the kidnapping;
I discovered the people must have them;
The public planet populating;
I was a blessedness and you an inexorability;

Git on Satan!

The demoniac doxology digging,
my indivisibility, I could not awaken;
It was unshaken, I crave the paramount public;
My salvation doubled;
I was a loyal host;
Had Satan on the ropes; 
Git back son;

Somewhat louder than the republic;
 warning me about the casting,
With such a passion for fasting;
I was ever basting in the protection of Christ;
Now that He’s here I shall never lose, I’ll have no lost;

My salvation doubled;
I was a loyal host;
Had Satan on the ropes; 
Git back son, Git back Satan;
Release the populations, 
Get your hands off God’s people;

Tom

Only my eavesdropping ear,
Detects the audition of the winds silent whisper,

This temporary phenomenon will soon be filled, 
With the sounds of a three dog town awakening; 

(IE) the garbage truck and boom boxes at five o’clock 
From businesses that has invaded my neighborhood;

This silent whispering wind often shows its anger
By populating my yard with Cardboard boxes!

Takes Hold

Takes Hold

Hooked on a love of music,
a love hook struck, a pierced imagination,
poured out onto the caustic pavement
of feelings and ideas; dreams where
the life of the heart, our guts
and all manner of adversity, alive 
in the folly of love, engulfed in one of its
multitudinous facets, embraces
an absolute joy, shredded for us
who chance to catch a thread;
populating the senses to that 
point where wrenching need, 
moored desire stretching its
elastic bonds to breaking and rampant 
want find favor in the hidden crawl-
space where Soul abides, darkly…
unbidden, arising as a fog, bathing
wounded aching hearts, voicing
aloud to all that writhing
vineyard-traffic that the vine
is tethered to an anchor point,
supporting the musical excursion,
that trims the melody, emboldens
chromous chords, lighting
the lyrical motifs, as words
create the harbor where our
grappling catch takes hold, 
unabashed in its embrace.

Women and Ladies

Ladies congest my small town
But women are loudly scarce 

Woman personally nurtures family
Lady hires maids to injure family

Woman’s heart dwells in the family
Lady’s heart dwells in the purse

Woman loves populating the village
Lady loves hiding them in private bags

Woman is kind-hearted and loving
Lady  is miser-hearted and loathsome

Woman cares for husband intensively
Lady cares of her body intensively

Woman loves people and dies for them
Lady loves wealth and dies for them

Come One, Come All

Ringing jingle bells, the winter fairy called "Gather 'round, 
gather round" to all populating the winter fairy land.
The land used to be dry and cracked and made up of sand,
But Frosty the Snowman made it snow,
Santa Claus built a toy factory and made the land glow.
Building toys, lighting up children's hearts -
That was the beginning - the very change and start.
Winter fairy said to all - "it is Christmas soon -
the more the merrier - come one to hear, come all!"
She rattled off "the evergreens need trimming" -
but all the fairies were in the hot springs playing and swimming.
She rattled off, "the toys need wrapping,
but all the snow elves were napping!
She was about to give up when Santa came on his sled 
with sleigh bells a'ringing - he started off the Christmas anthem 
song - he started singing.
The Christmas spirit awoke within all -
The more the merrier - come one to celebrate, come all!

Laundered Thoughts Wash Over Populations

beaming bleached grins of ivory predation
touching the tip of the steel heart severing love
eyeless lipless and formless feeling all life
forms wrinkled impulses warring like sexes
seeking paradise in the white exhalation of death
expanding minutes into eons of shadows feeding
cells populating the flesh of living loaves rising
being passed from mouth to grave nourishing reflections
deforming the scroll of experience scrawling live evil

…the wedded heretic
…time makes the law tick
…twitches of revolution stagnate
…in bacteria infested charters

seek the door—wider than the sky—hallowed candles sing darkened dreams…

Greek fornicators plunder Christ’s scream 
within the gray clouds of Golgotha
sail the trembling ghosts…
