Short Affective Poems

I preserve all words
as precious stones,
in the inerasable throat
of my affective memory... !...

Finally conquered my seasonal affective disorder
This lamp seems to help, also spring's round the corner
Made it through
A close one, phew!
Thought they'd have to lock up the knives till it's warmer...

They could see that I was stuck in a garble.

My pupils rolling like marbles. 

They could see through my inflection. 

They could sense my need for injections. 

My thoughts were becoming ineffective. 

Changes that are affective....

When laughter was heard in the hall,
The principle thought it was gall.
When down fell his britches,
The class burst in stitches.
The principle burst through the wall.


Refer to Twain's statement: The human race has but one really affective weapon, and that is laughter....

SAD*

When right is wrong
yet wrong isn't right
I lay awake on winter’s night
vainly searching for inner light
finding only emptiness within.
There is no form here only
an amorphous vapour
obscuring all and
revealing nothing.

Hopping mad, Billy glares through a port
at what foes seem to think is such sport.
Frown for frown, glare for glare,
scarecrow raises his hair.
He laughed yet while his foes took the fort!




"The human race has but one affective weapon, 
and that is laughter."

I toast the memory
of the great times...
The longevity of life!
The lull of a complete love!
The harmony that unites us!
To agreeable events!
The absence of affective lack!
The constant presence of shared bliss
The wonder of life we live together!
To all positive and healthy!
To us for being soul mates!
Divine grace!...

Through
blood stained aeons
religions
tiding astronomical
assuring
the birth of the sun

Shines
the near dead
seasonally depressed
atheist

Glowing

It sure is nice
to celebrate
with everyone

I sympathize with feelings on the flight of my dreams... I visit my desires while exhaling love over hot liquids. I remove the splinters that burn me. My desires emerge. It chases away nightmares that keep me away from life, and I take my affective memory. I put everything together and make the amalgamation of the beautiful read... my life... lived... poetic life......

V is for the violent images created by the ID
I  is for the immaculate figmentations that come to play
O is for the opticals of illusions
L is for the lucidness I have yet to succumb to
E is for the evolution of child's play to harmful reality
N is for the nonsense my tongue blurts out  in insanity
T is for trickery schizo-affective plays on me like a leprechaun...

Seasonal
Affective
Disorder

When
Evening

Night
Eventually
Ends
Disporportionally sooner

Lights
Inside needed
Great outside light diminished
Help needed
To end sad

(SAD is an illness that some people have when they don't get enough light in 
the winter and some people have an additional illness to getting too much 
light in summer which causes depression.)...

Here comes Autumn's pallid pall-
It stealthily creeps; it silently crawls
Bringing the air of the Season's despair
(For Misery is Comfort, after all)

The changing of leaves, my Psyche aggrieved!
The Fall in all of its Depression
Alas! The lessening light, the worsening my plight-
My face- a somber expression...

* I suffer from "Seasonal Affective Disorder", hence the reason I wrote this...

I tumble while staring into your eyes.
In hues fitting the month of December.
My wandering spirit is rekindled.
My frailties break down like puzzles.
Originating in the kindness of words.
Walk over frozen tears like a blizzard.
In echoes of the dazzling effect,
Winter nights attract seasonal sadness.
Building my own inner radiance.

Capital is the original weapon
for blasting apart nutritional health
from commodity wealth.

If capital is human history's non-ecological economic risk,
Then cooperative investment is our original tool
for healing nutritional wealth
as compassionately felt
GoldenRule opportunity health
for achieving win/win affective and effective politics,
ego-personal 
and eco-social
deep learning weapon/tool future investments
co-relational....

Tu B'Shevat 2021
Rosh HaShannah for trees,
Full Moon of Wolf howl,
Come as one in the frigid seize,
Jewish logic says "Eat fruit Y'All"!
Relieves our knockin' knees,
A Seasonal Affective Disorder null,
Laughin' moon face tease,
"Eat a Peach!" breaks the spell,
Sing Spring's a-comin'! We's...
Benching "Shecheyanu" in place of a growl,
Savoring fruit juice lees,
Refuting winter's bowel,
By moonshine spirits increase,
"Ahh!" replaces "Uuu!" as our vowel!...
