Summer churn, welcome home, come along, come, please come
along , (this morn)
With your unwholesome breath blown away a far the fragile, and
ailing, (a struggling croon )
Age old garbage may have mercy to egress
Old memory, forgotten lyric history,oblivious
Tearful dew sparkling now, may dry up in ease
Wiping out a shame, curing a mayhem , shiver
Burn saliently to season the pure suntanned believer
O muse and the cues! Dry up your soggy feel
Come and play around your flute of the ending zeal
To tear the old labyrinth of mystic away, (weaving the renewed
churn. )

Spring sings a sounding song
spreading softness
somewhat similar
as of a sympathetic summer
surprisingly sending
spells of
spiritual sort
surpassing some slumber
of springtime... as is
saliently so... !

It’s a Saturday afternoon worth waiting for. It’s 52°f and the sky is clear except for a scattering of popcorn clouds. I’m eating lunch with Sophy, Lisa, Anna (my roommates) and Peter (a friend) at one of the two residential dining halls that have the best pizza (yeah, you KNOW who you are).
We’re touching base before we scatter, shrapnel like, for the night. I’ll be hemmed-up by circumstance and in my most diligent work-mode. I have a presentation due Monday.
Sophy says, reading from at her laptop, “Research suggests that cat owners are seen as better looking and have more sex.”
“I have two cats,” I say, “at home.” I preen in my double-catness.
“I’m a cat owner!” Anna announces.
“My cat DIED.” Lisa reveals sadly.
“THAT cat did its JOB,” Sophy pronounced saliently, as if proof for the study.
“I grew up in a cat house,” Peter says.
“Ooo! YOU must have learned a LOT!” I say, batting my eyes seductively.
“Maybe we should get a cat HERE!” Sophy suggests.
“To cement our status!” Anna laughs.
The pizza was really good.

From Poetic Thoughts On Mankind And Its Accursed Fate
Hark! Grasp firm precious golden ray of moonlight
Wrap in heart's grip, let seep into awaiting dreams
Release it next dreadful, hellish-cast storming night
To delight in its saliently flowing bright streams.
With fervent prayers, bid high Heavens to cast down
Manna and wine to the feast-born unwashed masses
Without need for a foolish king and crushing crown
Or enslavement and wars from rebellious classes.
Flesh and blood are wont to beg unto shining skies
Filled with grieving's of broken souls and lost hope
Surrounded by dark world and deep burgeoning lies,
Ever present rock strewn dangers of its pitted slopes.
Alas! Tis it not true, chains of our mortal curse
Groom enticing pathways for us to do our worse?
Dare we this proclivity to set asunder
And thus, into redeeming light far further wander?

CELESTIAL ARTISTRY
Dexterity the holes
From which I breath through
Imaginative virtues pour
From this body I inhabit,
Caught up in life's entangle.
But almost written off
Which birth my rising up
Sprouted by write-ups,
That fire never goes off,
The phenomenon that blow me up
Turns me to the hero
That writes history without pen
Saliently going for the glory
Then jealousy of the future
Will pervade the past;
Welcome to the chronicles of victory
It is an unending story
Towering Babel past the first heaven
Even skyscraper marvel in envy,
Oceans roar in raving reverence,
Kilimanjaro sinks to its knees in awe,
The cedar swept away like ashes
Though a forceful and flawless victory
There is a price and part to play
In this timely preparation scorching phase;
The more you sweat in this practise
The less you bleed in battle
Till you change from the glory of yesterday
And tell this story to my seeds,
A generation gifted & lifted with endowments.

pulled pulpy arrow
into hoisted hollow
of tumultuous traces
beneath bounty figs
a drooling drive
pricked jumpy jive
mystic melody mumbling
puking punctured grace's
dark dainty dances
salient strife shrunk
licked lousy lust
callous contractions cupped
arrow saliently shot
birthed basked song.

Here the I am
into me alive
for the next breath
from the lungs
here my blood circulation
step by step circling
into my body
for every next second
here my eyes absorb
the visible sight
to cross the present
and the ears hear saliently all
to gain the processing of thoughtful journey
here I'm alive within me
for the hope
here
o the hope desires all me
and makes alive
from the dark rider night to the light breeding shining sun
o the hope desires heartiest
to bring me into the shape of rejuvenated spring
after the biting cold winter
here the hope desires
a rose where
I'm the bud and the fragrance is YOU
to live alongside shaped to unshaped

The bedspread of the blue sea is vast
She poses saliently silent
Serenity of the scene in my soul is sure to last
Tho' my mind is locked like absent
Like me, the Sun too is loosing the grip
As it steadily sinks
Birds are on their return trip
I bear beatings of a heart that too blinks
Sky is colorfully sketched
A single boat on return is set to sway
Haunting thoughts of my love lashed
As after a long travel, I came far away
Beneath a beautiful tree, I am seated at the shore
Artful appeal of the nature freezes my mind
Yet, I remain as if saturated with sore
And such beauty could not get me bind
Floating vessels began to bear the blue light
Twinkling stars started to whisper
My emotions weigh weird with such plight
I damn desperate, as if set down to suffer
Due to this detachment, there is no inner peace
The rage for romance remains in full
Love alone can restore one's own solace!
But who shall hear here emotions of an yearning soul ?

From Now On
From now on my love shall saliently spawn…
soaring thru the infinite abyss,
I send you this gift as I set it admirably adrift…
sealed with a sensorial kiss,
My eyes awaken in the morn only to adorn…
your face the launcher of ships,
Like a child reborn in the land of the unicorn…
awaiting for our love’s eclipse,
Of the sun and moon, we’ll be in tune…
amidst celestial bodies of the realm,
For I break the cocoon with a bashful boon…
and take control of the helm,
My love to deploy my Helen of Troy…
as the ships set sail the sapphire seas,
Soon we shall be together an eternal forever…
For I breathe you in the bewitching breeze.

THE PALPITATION OF ORLANDO, FLORIDA (USA)
Decimation on its face through mass execution and hate.
Just another night out painting the town.
No reason to perceive the unsound.
Out of the blue moon a gargantuan came into form.
In denial of himself, “Oscar” he could be called.
His name broadcasted is Omar.
He was seeking an award for what he stood for.
Over a selected lot he stood to devastate.
Ruminating a scene of terror and anxiety to the undue fatalities, methodical carnage and mayhem savagely assaulted every tenth woman or man he encroached upon.
The pulse of the environment did not reply.
They only wanted to save each other lives.
The demographics profligately made a holocaust halo sage as German’s did Jews in their heyday.
A popular gay spot was viciously attacked.
Orlando, Florida (USA) massacre is the deadliest yet.
We light a candle for the victims of Orlando terrorist attack that were massively executed - slaughtered by the confused.
Vigil saliently given.
The palpitation of Orlando, Florida is now in a nation’s memory.

Those two days the brief hours saliently witnessed
A pristine noteworthy bout, a piece of history perhaps;
The lustful error when gods mate with the mortal type
And the walls between saints and sins of ether collapse.
Does a god fallen from the airs wander in the bosom of the earth,
Or does he his wounded wings renew with balm for a return above?
The error of a sovereign does not allow his stay among the minions;
Princes mustn’t give pigs their pearls, nor should pigs show them love.
Such was the case that ill-fated Saturday evening
When drunken Adonis left his ornate honored throne
To frolic with a stupefied Demeter exiled by passion
And untamed need from the earth’s most arid horn.
Adonis is reminded of his error by some mystic impulse
But finds his flightless self entombed in lay transience,
Demeter, a lesser deity by many counts, lures him to stay
But he has to obey the lyrical call of the fallen Alcaeus.
He finds himself reciting an Alcaic verse,
“I now can fly at will…”at last he discovers!

Dependency is an extreme sort of malaise.
Its intensifications are seen in awkward ways.
You see yourself as an incurable disease.
However, once the means disappear, you become at ease.
Estranged from your normal world, you shout-out saliently to be heard.
Done in the calmest way, your expression removes disenchantment.
Hugs you give.
Afflictions ebb diminishing the tide.
You smile and begin to feel the importance of life.
Prescribe the drug to others.
Tell them how you overcame your troubles through this remedy.
The pain that you killed was done via Poetry Therapy.
Let one know the heights you peaked.
Pedestals you formed.
Share those as well and state they are there for anyone to summit.
Apex
Reach your highpoint
Zenith
Top
Pinnacle
Do not stop
Level to the afar
The limit is there.

The windows of my soul open through your eyes,
edges on my heart, your smile soothes.
Tell me all of your tales of sadness,
share with me this world of madness.
Your angelic face gleams saliently
from beneath a hospital white sheet.
The pallor of you albescent face calmly
dulls the brightness of this sterile retreat.
A curl of black luster in your ageless hair
flows from white bedding into the air.
Show me your every tear and sorrow
as we cross the seas of tomorrow.
I will take a cloud to wipe your tears,
give you a rainbow to calm your fears.
She sleeps, like a flower in a floral bouquet
a blossoming petal in a garden array.
She sleeps, I'm never more to touch that line,
furrowed in her brow so fine
that wrinkled and creased with each smile or tear,
from a laugh, a sigh, a hearty cheer.
Her words, her sounds, filter through this wild mind
retaining, recording each lost whisper I find.
Wild is the river flowing gentle through the memory
of my mind, wilder still the thought of my Glory.
