IN THE WAKE OF POLITICAL RENDERINGS
In today’s diabolical
Political renderings,
Let’s not be like
Naked sage trees:
Leaves and fruits rotting
In unjust, bigoted political dirt:-
Rather, today let’s spring into life
And be like un-cocooned butterflies,
Soaring free and prepared as ought to be:
Pollinating flowering life with justice and equality:-
And like hived bees, let’s be about the honey flowing
Of long time awaited retribution, liberty, and equanimity:-

Written From A Poetic Heart's True Renderings
Riding into oblivion's clouds
wearing rags, willfully blind shrouds
O'lord, such epic darkness burns
giving more hideous returns,
weeping songs, chaotic notes
as swollen drowned bodies float
rectitude of a ghostly dirge,
fruits of mankind's constant urge.
Hovering over bloody fields,
sad reaping of horrific yields
with innocence ruthlessly slain
winds of death, sorrows and pain,
bitter dregs of rot and decay
from evil's darkness, holding sway.

Sonnet (Dark), ( Born from reading a poet's very fine verse )
“Written in the Time of Something”.....
With my sincere and deep thanks given...

To hunger for love's sweet breath
as we lay among yellow flowers and purple asters
and whisper to ears trapped in the mouth of love
with hands curled
in a delicate dance of passionate dreams
that lay quiet in solemn renderings with our souls
as we linger beneath butterfly wings
where the only sounds heard are heartbeats
beating in rhythm
to be innocent in our intentions and insatiable with passion
driven to the edge of wanton desire
to love...and be loved
without conditions or restraints
to breathe as one beneath the glorious grandeur of an open sky
filled with passing clouds
whose shadows ripple across our skin in silent artistry
as they move towards the horizon
where the sun will set before our eyes
in a long red ribbon of light
leaving us alone
as we enter the romance of night's glittering gleams
where lovers count stars
and moonbeams color the world in splayed golden beams
that draw out the contours of a beautiful face
filled with the unabashed sensuality of love

The infinity of the universe
stretches beyond our comprehension
Our minds can only imagine
with renderings on the theme
and our perpetual colors of creativity
painted in our minds by the sense of our smallness
So we look in awe
gathering in starlights to fill our wondrous dreams

You were lost
like a rolled away pill.
Hibiscus was waiting
*
As the night departs,
I will look at the moon
through misted eyes.
*
A bridge has collapsed.
How sad.
A bell tolls endlessly.
