Reflex(A) Poems | Examples


Swinging Moods

Tonight I sit with my incomplete saga at the Northern wing
Patiently anticipate for a romantic Local to sing

Alas! A Foreigner intoxicated with love, voices lyrics so deep
Goosebumps from my toes to my nape shamelessly creep

The persona closes up and inflames the moment by clasping my wrist
In reflex, a powerless stroke I surrender with a resilient fist

I hear whispers of sweet nothings and coyly my nose ring burns
A passionate rush! Like golden 'gulgulas' dancing in a wok, my heart churns

Sanity I quickly deport and allow the Waltz to blow in to several untamed Tangos
A pair of sweetened lips mask mine; I feel a familiar sensitivity of 'Sigatoka' Valley mangoes

An alarmed star in a faraway sky breaks before barriers do
The foreigner obligated to leave the saga and NOW I’m forced to settle for a local brew.

Insincerity

The truth in life is lost with insincerity. A lonely life is gained once you accept insincerity. Fake promises, unattainable, unsustainable, draining on the soul is insincerity. Among millions, one cannot pretend, words do not make or break friends, it is insincerity. Actions alone, hold truth to reality, words like “how are you”, “I am sorry” “how is your day” are empty when you live with insincerity. kindness must be natural, must be real, it cannot be selective it cannot be surreal. I do not live by illusion, if I ask I mean it, to me it is not a reflex, a false inquiry, to me it is a genuine interest with no date of expiry. When you really do not care please do not insult with me with false pretense, fake words, pretend interest, just treat me normally with no interest, and be fair, a simple hey, a simple yo, a simple what up is suffice you know. Leave genuine interest to those who care, be real, be genuine when you feel it, be it, see it, then you are true to yourself. Insincerity has no place among truth, no life among friends, it is an illusion a life of pretend…Poetry by Dean
