She skates along the edge of sanity.
The line between disaster and divine.
Heart now tasting the inhumanity,
without the lonely sip of the sweet wine.
Digging whilst drowning the depths of darkness,
rummaging righteousness religiously.
God bleeding sunshine into her starkness,
pruning the soul hath lost prodigiously.
Placing the lotus seed into the earth,
seed splicing and spiraling down and up.
She senses the sprouts swaying, giving birth,
spilling atop the ground below the cup.
Watering new life, soaking up the ground.
Flower below the earth, above the mound.

Packaged deal, only seven lines long
Picture it within ruts of your brain
Pleiades poetry written in sweet song.
Promising a harmony like blueberries that are tame.
Performing a work that prodigiously aspires
Pointed to the Pleiades constellation that shines

SOL’S A SHINING
Sol’s a shining,
And dog is laying around,
For on this day
Winter has made her home in residence,
And bought another dimension to feeling
Adding to a wonderful time of year,
And I sit in contentment be
And bask in Sol’s feathered warmth;
And let the world around
Pass with noisy traffic abound,
And siren in background,
Clear sky rain surrendered
A notch in the gauge indicates the occurrence,
Garden dressed in freshness splendid,
A zephyr stirs the leave’s,
On boughs of trees parked within the garden here
And beyond the garden fence,
Jackass from beyond laughs, laughs, and laughs again
To me he is friend in background far,
Butterfly dressed in yellow hues
Flitters and flutters on upward drift,
As winter shadows dance and prance adorn the land,
Papaya tree burdened down with fruity treasure plenty,
Banana tree heavily pregnant hangs prodigiously to ground,
It’s this time of the year for reflection in the knowledge
That I have plenty of blessings that abound
And wrap their arms around,
That I have much not to take for granted:
And Sol’s a shining,
And dog is laying around.

Mr. Sun and Mrs.Moon
Wedded before million of years
ago whence our planet was unfaltering
Even whilst differing prodigiously:
in age ,size & their origin
They demonstrate a wonderful couple
Everyday he persuades her with his rays alike
soothing feather.
and shares his love light to her.
She reacts by reflecting back to us.
He wakes up in the morning to find her
to have fallen drowsy.
Observing that he gives her rest,
so that she could be much awake to do her night onus.
Hide-and-seek is their favourite game.
Day and night shifts are their aim.
He is a star and she is a particle of
rock and dust.
Nevertheless they are pleased with each other's
beauty at best.
Sighting her sound sleep he is always
cautious not to trouble her..
Instead adores her beauty from a farther distance.
When the sun makes out with moon:
Occurs the birth of eclipses.

Why do you always forgive
and invite me back home?
Why do I respond to my Prodigal Son
with prodigious love?
I guess.
Because we share an Older RightBrain Stem,
right down into our DNA-drenched bone marrow,
that always feels cooperatively drawn toward WinWin co-empathic trust
resolutions,
and always unconsciously dissonantly struggles
with competitive Win-Ego v Lose-OtherEco compromises
with how Earth and Ego would health and wellness thrive
if we all could remember
we have all been both Prodigal Sons and Daughters
and Prodigious Elder WinWin Ego/Eco Mentors
who could never become happy choosing between
ecosystemic LeftBrain deductive natural health
over ecopolitical RightBrain inductive nurturing wealth.
Like having your LeftBrain deductive self-regenerative cake
while RightBrain ecosystemically decomposing it too.
Said like a WinWin Prodigal co-investing Son/Daughter.
I guess.
Prodigiously.
I appreciate the return invite
but it is this habit of yours about always needing the last polysyllabic word
that continues to drive me nuts.
What can I say that will help you feel better
about this annoying habit of mine?
Preferably nothing.

1 Corinthians 15:12-19
© Ben Burton 1-30-2015
If Christ was proclaimed resurrected
By some who, before, didn't believe
What of those who strongly objected
And called it a mass fantasy
His tomb closely guarded by soldiers
Whose sleeping would cost them their lives
They'd let no one near it, moreover
Arrest anyone who dared try
And yet with the third morning's breaking
The large sealing stone had been moved
Prodigiously, that Rock of Ages
Provided the world with its proof
Some soldiers who witnessed the wonder
Would come to know Christ as their Lord
The miracle, not Roman blunder
Was a pact to unlock Heaven's door
Yet, if truly the Lamb has not risen
The Gospels were written in vain
The tenets of Christian religion
Have all been a sham and a shame
Were Christ born for earthly life only
Without resurrection for man
The entire religion is phony
And God has been mocked in His plan
But let not your mind endure struggles
Not even as life nears its end
For Christ rose and banished your troubles
And the good life has yet to begin

i burn
i indulge in the fire
of my slitherin ride into you
indescribable warmth
that touches,
smoothens the
toughness in me
and conjures up
libidinous urges
that cannot be smothered
i am distraught
nothing has ever felt
so prodigiously agreeable
my wobbly hand
slides slowly along
the evenness of your
long, velvety arm
sure as you and i
are there
the ephemeral bliss
that is supposed to be
is lengthened
drawn out
to fulfill our
handsome desire
to be one

An example of unilateral symbiosis
would be parasitism such as any mycosis.
Within you could live a bacterium or virus.
To me, it is beneficial. To you, dangerous.
The form could also be manifest within a cyst.
I shall dominate no matter how much you resist.
My descendents shall multiply so prodigiously.
They shall consume all your resources liberally.
Medicine will keep making moves seeming quixotic.
They affect your body and mind with a narcotic.
All the end results will prove themselves to be tragic.
A "panacea", also called a "magic bullet",
will always be ineffective each time you try it.
As I nestle within your internal dominions,
I become the central topic of your opinions.
No matter how much anyone will atone and pray,
I and my subjects will control more of you each day.
We are here to stay, and we will never go away.
Our stand is unyielding. No matter how much you try,
the dominance in you continues until you die.

Something prodigiously deep, profoundly placed on the mind
Do not pick it up in a rush ... for often we see better when
No light impale the eyes ... let history here forget, be blind
Before you tackle the poetry of my esteemed fellow friend
It is not science fiction, the patchwork anxiety kind, it's clever
But have a factual base, a bold type of alternative prophecy
A cycle we forget, and so apparently a ship sailed by a dreamer
But don't you take for granted her beauty, her noble honesty
For something deeper runs, a truth beyond the common ken
A memory lost to the civilizing of men, a real spiritual zen
O let me alone to bask awhile in the sea of her wit, my friend
Give me years to ferret truths, and words as sweet for my pen.

The September odoriferous winds
Are not unlike my lover’s perfumed breath.
Their sometimes subtleties, like cherubs wings
Moving warm fragrant air across the earth;
Like unto slumberous respirations
My lover’s exhalations warm my bed.
Yet winds must change, their aberrations,
Those once heated airs turn to rage instead
Whose blustering breaths blow prodigiously
Like our passion’d breaths from pillowed-heads,
Panting, respiring uncontrollably.
December dawns, the wind is lulled unwed
And virgin snow falls onto earthly spread.
Thus, not unlike this maiden in my bed.

That mercy falling from a blessing's rain
before the worth prodigiously complain,
my eyes on hope recycle toward explain
and set the water flowing to remain!
And that which dried my spirit, gain no more
and that which faked revere it, now abhor
this building up now near it ~ faith's restore
freedom's oasis . . . mercies open door!
