Short Appeasement Poems

Truth can’t exist
in the absence of courage

Words of appeasement
—freedom denied

tithes, alms, to atone for lies and murder,

                      warlord, the kind provider,

                         feeling saved all over !...

You have to be immortal
to placate the gods

Time reaffirming
all memory of

Creation, destruction,
eternity looms

For those who believe
—appeasement exhumes 

(Calvary Cemetery: October, 2020)...

Duties abound
Pursued throughout
Golden years of
My life,
Concerned for all
Couldn't care less,

Solicitude is not
The reward,
Emotions betrayed
Snubbing now is
Not acceptable,

The realisation that
It's just me,
Free to live
My own way,
My own decisions
My life,
Nobody else
Would decide.

A winsome situation 
Living to 
Nobody's appeasement,
Frankly my dear,
I don't give
A damn !!...

Erotica looks deep inside your soul.
Just one kiss overwhelms inhibition.
Could you take away exhibition?
Sensuality is truth without toll.
Sensory appeasement her goal,
Bodily movements as magician,
She has complete submission.
Voluptuousness is the whole.

Your heart is captured deep.
Both minds bonded now.
Your spirit may weep.
Though flesh will allow,
Physical actions to keep,
Erotica makes her vow.

I wonder where you are
even though you sit here by me.
In your eyes there is a distance
I cannot perceive. 
Your thoughts are far from me.
I cannot compete with that which I cannot see.
Is she here with you? 
Does she whisper in your thoughts?
Does she walk through your dreams?
Is this phantom desire only an apparition? 
Or a soulless heart who seeks to tear us apart?
Should I not suspicion?
Should I panic at the thought or seek appeasement
for my broken heart.
