Adequate Autumn

We may not have autumn
But the leaves here falls
Just the same
Not as much
But as necessary


The grass on either side has always been green.
Form: Ballad

Encourage Constitution

Encourage Constitution

To me there never is an adequate substitution,
For Constitution that does offer any solution;
Study much;
Stay in touch;
Any other action should be pure monition.

Premium Member My Ampleness

You bide my ampleness. Beginning, and last. You are adequate. My face, my pride, in shades Kindly don't forsake me. What's more strain your gaze from me. Like two mists were ascending against the sky!

The Voice

Some creatures seem barely adequate designed as they are for the least – some live in blind anonymity, have yet to be discovered even by themselves. ‘Some creatures are barely adequate’ intones a vast alien voice in my head.


MORE MEDIOCRITY

MORE MEDIOCRITY

Targets can be quantitative
But then, enough may be enough
Despite one being creative
Targets can be quantitative
What happened to qualitative
There’s plenty of adequate stuff
Targets can be quantitative
But then, enough may be enough

Lea of Thought

Horizon of knelling bells
Adequate feeling bestowed
Hue, odor, sound, sensation
Harmoniously dwell
Tangible gnosticism
Catharsis
Potency yells
Largess
Ample satisfaction
Darkness, Thy power quells
Allah, family, thought

Camelot...Freedom
 
Allah: Arabic word for God

Subtle consequence

too busy, not adequate time, working, till their eyes touched.

Cells Melt

Blood rushes behind my eyes. Ocean waves
crash as I turn my head, tilting to get a better
view of you. But that’s impossible, isn’t it? No 
view is adequate. How should one look at David?
My lips are dry. I’m fainting, surely. Cells melt
and mix, transfixed as you walk by. Unknowing.

Delicious Love

DELICIOUS LOVE

One is what we done
Having always done
Again and again, it must be done
Without and never ending love.

Delicious Love
Is doing it with love
No condition and no prejudice
No more no less but seem adequate.

Delicious love is definite
When enjoyable, compatible and memorable
An indulging couple as one
Not withstanding forevermore.
Form: Rhyme

Spontaneous Love

Like the letters who always get their addresses,
one day your love will find my way.
If not too soon dear,
let it come at a delay.
I could linger forever, here.
May you too also feel that way.
We are adequate for each other,
let's cultivate an amorous memory
in a perfect display.
Let our union be as spontaneous
as the Sun rises in the east every day.
Form: Rhyme

Problem

get the cure
be always sure


what happens next
solve all pretext


problems are many
look never tiny


history or sociology
knowledge is methodology


knowledge is power
meant for shower


problem and knowledge
things to acknowledge


problem of communication
knowledge without inhibition


if problem intricate
attention paid adequate

Efficient Desire

I desire not a Benz
Nor a Bentley 
That'll chase my night away
But a Toyota 
That'll make me sleep at will

I desire not to be rich
Nor hope to be poor
But in all my endeavor 
Let me be pleased 

I desire to be ridiculed
While my body is in truce
With itself and peace all around

I desire to be adequate
With the cost of normal hustle

My Efficient Desire

Nothing To Say

Some creatures seem barely adequate
designed as they are for the least.

Some creatures live in blind anonymity,
have yet to be discovered,
even by themselves.

“What is your point,” shouts a mite,
“for underneath the microscope
are we not all so very large?”

Then silence……
I can only surmise
that a larger creature just ate the mite

and it has nothing to say.

Premium Member Life

Life Bt: Tom Wright 2000 Lord, I find that life, with all It's daily unseen snares, is analogous to snow boarding haphazardly down a pine covered incline. My skill and adroitness are never adequate for these obstacles that lie in wait. It is only through my faith in Jesus, whose tracks I'll follow, that I have hope of reaching the desired finish.

Premium Member Ecstasies of Love

Just a whiff of your musky perfume
would suffice to fill my home.
Just a husky laugh of yours
is sufficient to make my day.
Just a show of your faithful love
is enough to send me into paradise.
Just a look from your dark brown eyes
is just right to make me quiver with love.
Just a passionate kiss from your lips
is adequate to satiate my life.

The parallel life of a woman



              To be a woman:
              Is to search your father's missing love in stranger's beds
              To live life scrambling for love
              Yet hating every moment of it
              To crave gentleness, yet run at the sight of it
              Such is womanhood,
              in its adequate inadequacy.

                - The parallel life of a woman

Premium Member Naive Faith




Neither adequate experience nor knowledge 
Attention to detail is essential to faith
Individuality bows to the group
Vanity should be dismissed
Engage and embrace God

Futility is the fruit of deception
Authority must have its foundation
Intimacy with God is central and essential
Time must be given to the object of our faith
Holiness is the fruit of true faith in Christ
Form: Acrostic

Takin' the Time....

it's time to take the time
for me to get to know me
we all get confused sometimes
that is plain enough to see

I never really paid adequate attention
to who I really am
others surely did so much better
I guess that's quite normal
and others are also an insight debtor

 how long would this  take?
I guess I'll soon find out
some surprises sure to surface,
of this I have no doubt

....in the times of witch hunts (of one sort or another) cats were suspect and
    maybe some opposed the hunt and dared to question the inquisitors....

Lucy X

Hazed by the dire rope of death

A subtle incandescence flickered

A white light glimmered like meth

Whilst hushed peaked a snicker


Her smile an adequate sedative

Terminating vivid estuaries

A moment equally competitive

In other eyes deemed honorary



Mi corazón happened upon felicity

Blessed be this origin of jubilee

Freeze we shall in fair amenity

Beneath this fine cherry tree

Connecting the Dots To Myself

connecting the dots to myself,
the sole stumbling block on my shelf

placing the blame where it should be
no more worn out excuses about what would be

it is time to get on my knees and really repent
it will be the only way to a sincerely adequate descent

i learn in prayer that recovery, rebuilding, and forgiveness comes with works
without it, faith will be useless for it will be devoid of pretty much all its perks

Premium Member Ecstasy

As involuntary spasms of ecstatic blissful delight vivify our being through day & night, we are at a loss to offer any adequate delineation of these elixirous sensations, the current to which we are sentient, both liberating as well as captivating, making meditation our ever present orientation renewing within in an unending continuation.

the bubble stretches
empty within yet throbbing
with magnetic heat
