Premium Member Canvas

Every mind is painted on a separate canvas
Lines brushed to give edge to their scenes
With a multitude of colors peppered around
Bordered by abstruse and diverted memories

Premium Member Buried Nude

A holy man's head was lost in the clouds
His abstruse reasoning made him so proud
   He pondered all day
   Earned zero cents pay
Buried nude - He couldn't pay for a shroud

Premium Member America, Arise Altogether

Agitators ambush America
anger attacks, abstruse
acquaintances and adversaries acrid
absolutism acolytes abrading
abrogate acrimony
America, arise altogether
amend, amend

Intangible Obscurity

Unwritten chapters of poetry
 hidden mid brick-wall blank
 pages 'tween lines of history's
   past grievances and faux pas,
relentless whispers of tenuous
   echoes chanting unintelligibly 
whilst abstruse inky passages
  fade further intangible obscurity

Premium Member Paint Strokes

Ebony braids, moon misplaced
Indigo inferno flames
Speckled iris, abstract face

Drowsy eyes, acrylic paint
Haunted ash tree, trailing bleak
Torrid patchwork women faint

Pigeons perch on scribbled lines
Chanting fire petals dance,
Abstruse art, bewildered mind
art

Marrakech

Mellifluous is its name,
August and worthy of its fame,
Romantic and idyllic all the same,
Refulgent and bright in the myopic’s eye,
Abstruse to the ignorant mind,
Keen to the witty’s wit.
Ebullient in the face of melancholy
Classic during the day, but
Habitable and hospitable in a humble way.

Kismet Unfurled

Gossamer adorned
Knotted love-laced bows
Neatly wrapped and scorned
Words carefully chose.

We dance this refrain
Dream-like sleep induced
Guided quick to fain
Promises seduce.

Pages rip transformed
Immortalized prose
Lover’s dreams performed
Reconcile compose.

Beyond broke to strain
Disguised truth abstruse
Blend until disdain
Kismet love reduced

Premium Member Ripples In Time

Ripples in time .

Echoes ride the pinnacles of undulating ripples
- across that something, that once was so clear –
across the reflective, mirrored surface of time.

As they travel towards the abstruse shores of reality,
they begin to disintegrate, fade into the mysterious depths
of what will surly become, what creates the here and now.

emblazon the biosphere
   abstruse blue, shire green
      shaken out of the shadows
                                 fire opal, daystar yellow
                              every color under the sun
                        embodying the labyrinthine canvas

Premium Member Desert

The wide stretch, dry and sterile lay vast before our eyes. In the moonlit night, it glowed white. We felt, as if lost, in a land abstruse. Fury masked before us so calm! Here's an uncanny song heard, only in silence! Dec.11.2022 Writing Challenge – Yalto Form Poetry Contest Sponsor- Constance La France

Goth

Somber grey,true dismay
Abstruse plight,day is night
Assailants might,no armistice
           Goth
Abatoirs full of disgorge
A world depraved,a blackish haze
Ignominous calamity
            Goth
Fathomless,the abyss
Callosity,the damned to be
Feinous atrocities
             Goth
Evil adulation,whole affectation
Amoral fixation,mind controlled nations
Robotic existence,lost in decadence
             Goth

Latin

Latin is abstruse whilst the learning battle ceased

Though as theorist thinkers, found a language lost,

Opaque it all may seem, but it’s merely just a dream 

Then I’ll circumvent some adumbrate at least.


Impetuous the urge I ask to detail verse for you- 

Meticulous does Latin sound, incredibly romantic,

As old as it may be, its sight is not pedantic  

It's feature full with feculence, but understood by few.

Claire

Introspective, and charmingly coy,
her shyness enchanted my heart;
she wandered along in her own private world
quite unwilling to ration a part 

of her intricate mind full of poems
and novels abstruse and arcane, 
they would challenge a D.Phil from Oxford
their mangled motifs to explain. 

Then I discovered her Achilles heel,
the way to steal one little kiss;
it was Rilke, he was the key to her soul,
'rigor mortis' to absolute bliss!

Poeming

While craving for meaning, he stokes
                                            the ember,

                fans the flame of urgent, artistic madness
                                              for order;


                      but the mind sinks into the quagmire
                                         of the abstruse,

            and all that is left of poetic sense is deadened
                                        at the dead end.

Premium Member Splitting Hairs

Splitting Hairs
David J Walker

If you only knew 
How often
I do just that
Splitting hairs to enter 
Another dimension 
Leaving me both here
And there, driving the streets 
Of abstract convention 
Where traffic lights are blue
And the tomorrows are
No longer new and are known
For abstruse pretention
Everyone seems to know my name
When they think they see me in
This other form
And then I’m gone again
In the split of a thoughts
Distension

Winged Lure

In the depths of the abstruse pages 
A quill transcribes fathomless thought
Feathered ideas guilelessly tethered to
Existence with a black ink onslaught

The same plume that once lifted its own maker 
To heights undreamed of on the ground
Disembogues reflections of speculations 
On white pages that are now confound

A blank slate now full of words
From those who have come before
leaves us to cipher fact from fiction
At the confluence of winged lure

She's Some Kind of Poetry - -

She's reckless and cautious

     in the same breath,

sensibly abstruse and uninhibited

       elusively in your face,

introspective in her extroversion

  expressly shy when she wills to be,

    rapture in the mist

          an enigma unto man

              a force to be reckoned

         he couldn't possibly envisage,

don't try to comprehend the

   wind 'neath her wings, 

     she's poetry replete

           with esoteric allusions

Golden Harp

Scrub your mind and make webs your harp,
Pluck them with your ivory fingers, they smart;
Raindrops from the ribbons of blue,sparkle the day,
Melody unmuffled, birds tuned in, take heart.

Pain drenched in rain, turns sedate, only harp
A queen's treasured bait for the abstruse lovers;
I am your angel you can say with pride,
As golden harp, the woven fate, uncovers.

Premium Member Death

Abstruse this aura of fear.
Envisioned darkness lurking near.

Ignorant to perceive what you hear.
Detached from feelings lost and unclear.

Allured by a spirit's whispers I hear.
Heed this murmur obscurity will clear.

Emerge from this somber despite the fear.
For death deceives those it draws near.

Remembrances absent in solitude for years.
Human ignorance, not god, brought forth these fears.

Our creator's proverbs must be made clear.
Human divergence ought not we fear.
