Sighing over the hills
Galloping through the farms

how sweetly it unravels
till there is nothing left behind
just the weeded path I traveled...

Ambivalence
Apparently vague
Contradicting, contrasting, confusing
Embedded rhetorical ambiguity
Alluring, enigmatic puzzle
Irony

Because I know all the answers anyway,
But I don't like any of them either away,
Truth is, it's you I just can't forget, not even for a day....

simultaneous 
            visions,
mutli-layered
         inspiration:
innovative
coherence
   now apparent,
broken

      ambiguity...
unresolved...

Cryptic and puzzling 
Hard to understand 
No one could figure it out 
Nor did they have a plan 
What we have here 
Is a mystery 
Nothing but dark clouds 
Filled with ambiguity...

Our fate is sealed
with innocent ambiguity
Our steps are laden
with blind uncertainty
Our yearnings, like cliffs
fall away to guiltless verity...

One needs the shade
   of an oasis,
   of quiet solitude,
For to soften 
direct sunlight's glare,
Teasing one
   into the shadows
of the ambiguity
of possibles....

I aim for brevity,
Strive for clarity,
Avoid ambiguity
And trite banality,
Insert sagacity,
Blend in sensitivity,
Fine-tune for harmony,
Appeal to humanity,
Infuse with honesty,
And voilà!
Poetry!...

How esoteric
No one could figure this out
Mysterious and puzzling
As situations come about
The people are speaking
But, there is lots of ambiguity
Unless we remove these clouds
No one will see clearly...

Do not suffer in silence 
Let your voice be heard
Speak your message 
Just be the one to spread the word
When a person is alone 
Ambiguity may appear 
Rise above the mountainside 
In order to make your words clear...

It is timely 
To provide clear communication 
Without it, there would be a cloudy scenery 
Along with mass frustration 
When words are unspoken 
Hearts are frozen 
Lots of ambiguity in the air 
Along with mass confusion...

Things tend to have a deeper meaning 
But, we see selectively 
The direction is there 
It is not used completely 
We are often confused 
As a result of the ambiguity 
Pain and darkness walk in 
Nothing but a clouded scenery...

Remove from the clouds 
Along with the ambiguity 
Rise up with the good air 
Find your prosperity
Do not hide in those shadows
For darkness is what you will find 
Move forward with determination 
And create your own sunshine...

Darkness appears 
When one is not sincere 
Nothing but a cloudy scenery 
As a result of the ambiguity 
Lots of chaos and confusion 
Along with frustration 
For it is better to be forthright 
Instead of putting up with a fight...

Ambiguity undefined
Overuled and underlined
by Blood red hair that hides
the ship that sunk in sea blue eyes

empty life and bursting heart
betrayed by senses in the dark
haunted by the righteous wrong
a strangled heart's silent song...

Pitter patter on with perfect ambiguity 
Knowing only the knolls of the knave
Brave, brave sir, mam, beware
Aristotle to Aristocracy, I dare
Peasants pair and say thou prayers
The dusk-walker approaches
You are now, the forgotten little roaches...
