Short Ascertained Poems

each truth ascertained, incomplete
falling short, if not bliss replete
unless we become divine light
enabled with spherical sight
day and night, sitting at God’s feet

Thusly
A thought
The first letter
A sentence ensues
The paragraph develops
A chapter has been inscribed
The new story can be ascertained
A position on the bookshelf is reserved
The copywriter will never be discouraged...

There are many things we understand…
things we are confident we know…
that through science and creativity 
we have ascertained…

But today we send a little blessing out 
to all the things in life that cannot be explained....

Thoughts drown an innocuous man, found pondering about an empty tide pool.
And 
Tad poles think about life above all else when thee light shows its radiant rays of ascertained enumeration.

Squalid thoughts,
Disguised as Dust Bunnies,

Lie dormant,
In a mind's un-swept corners,

Awaiting time and opportunity
To be unloosed from confinement,
By the tongue.

But never,
Will squalid thoughts,
Be ascertained hibernating,
In a beautiful mind.

When he died, the police ascertained
their relationship was a bit strained.
With a corpse for a bride,
though the groom tried and tried,
seems not much of her love still remained.

Adam where are you?
I am here among the trees
in a compromised position,
we are joined by the D.A. 
in hopes to make a deal;
if not a defense.
It was no doubt the third party
that ascertained the strife
of bad decision
onto my female companion,
whom in turn set me up,
for the great tumultuous event.

AVANT GARDE
narrative
 motifs
initially  far fateched
 hitherto
full
   of pathos
 full
  of poetry
in
 bestowed pleasures
a sense
 of
 rapture
capturing
  the everyday
fleeting
 spontaneous
yet
copying
  nature
with
  ascertained
tendencies
of
allegorical
incidents
taken
  unawares
by
symbols
of
sensitivities
acquainted

Beloved monarch or milkweed butterfly,                            Your migration may mystify,                                                    Do you migrate from Australia or America?,                     How do you ascertained the area?,                                     Your journey holds spiritual significance,                                It serves as a symbol of existence....

MAN COMES AND MAN GOES
THAT IS THE PICTURE WHICH
UNIVERSE SHOWS
BUT WHERE WE STAND
WHO KNOWS!
OUR PLANNING FOR OUR LIFE TIME
WISHING MANY THINGS AT A TIME
DESTINY DECIDES THE RIGHT TIME
PRAYER AFTER PRAYER TO LORD
MAKES ME
AN INTELLECTUAL FRUAD
NATURE AND ITS CALAMITY
AND ITS VINDICTIVITY
FEATURES OF NATURE
MAY BE ASCERTAINED
BUT ALL MACHINES HAVE FAILED
TO ASSESS HUMAN MEASURE...

Man comes and MAN goes
That is the picture which
Universe shows 
But where we stand
Who knows !
Our planning for our life time
Wishing many things at a time
Destiny decides the right time.
Prayer after prayer to Lord
Makes me 
an intellectual fruad
Nature and  its calamity
Same as human being and 
Iis vindictivity
Features of nature
May be ascertained
But all machines have failed
To assess human measure...

A thesis, ascertained through abrasions of
decubitus ulcerations of existences austerity.
   The colluded effect of unbeknownst
certainty.
    Preluding the path of non precluding.
Additioned to the implausibility of unintended
effect.
    Multiplied by the multiplicity of ignorant 
ignorance.
    Divided by the hidden figures of plausible
deniability.
    Equaling the copiousness of insurrection
and egalitarianism....

The Petal is a bud
That opens to a bloom
It blossoms with the Sun
On Summer afternoons

When Climate freezes Day
It’s easier for Men
To know why Petals wither 
– Theirs to understand

But when Summer is at hand
And Noon upon the Day
Men can but exclaim
With unconcealed dismay
When the blooming flower 
Folds and fades away

But for Frost within the root
And Chill within the stem 
– These cannot be ascertained
By Petal or by Man
