A common Kama Sutra pose
Assumes men have a garden hose
When one is rigid
The woman frigid
And checking which way the wind blows...

most everyone
assumes that we have free will
I guess I mostly agree
but what free will exists when
we can't tell salt from sugar?
maybe acts of charity. . ....

How come our neighbor two doors away
Assumes we like his music, did he take a survey
An assault on my ears
It brings me to tears
Must be a law stating “you must not loudly play” ...

Our art grew twisted and broken.
Horrifying.
Simple to the point of contempt.
Unclear by intention.

For it is dying ...
Dying to the demands of reason
that assumes all can be understood.

the chair assumes its responsibility
the edge of my vision has another idea
red drops of love sweep across the table
significant shapes creep into the linens
the door began to unhinge
and the windows clamor at your approach...

Is Tanka a poem 

We the classless
seek no revolution only fairness
we like quality 
a well-balanced diet
and cold German lager.
The stinking rich
one assumes they do not bath
can continue to pong 
we seek no egalitarianism
only German lager....

Many Moons 

Many moons have affected my way of life 
From conflicts to divine meetings 
To when I choose to say goodbye 
I’m always pulled in the direction of what seems most right 
When listening to the many moons 
And the thousand faces she assumes...

She closes her eyes…
Falls in a slumber
She assumes she is awake
And starts to wonder

She can not think straight
She has no mind
She screams to them 
As she starts to cry

The pain comes back
But she believes it’s fake
She wished that they
Would all just go away…...

All along the river
   Stand little men of sand

Watching, watching
 
This river run so deep

With swells so high
   To bathe their very souls

And, oh, so curious
   From above

On wings of
   Golden feathers wide

Great bird of prey
   Assumes his pose

Aware of ever growing tide...

Tanka like

We the classless
seek no revolution, only fairness.
We like quality
a well- balanced diet
And cold German pilsner.
The stinking rich,
one assumes they do not have bath often,
can continue to pong.
We seek no egalitarianism
but cold German lager
and a comma -less life....

A
Small 
Creature 
And pill like 
Describe the heroes
That follow an evil leader
Until one day, a trio decided to venture
To find out a new overseer that assumes the control of their community

he presumes that people find him unassuming

                    and about his humility he keeps on boasting;

                                       looks down his nose

                                           at you and those

                   he assumes as presumptuous, as assuming !...

Likes to Dali herself up whilst reading,
assumes abstract designs will enhance
the benignly inartistic life story she's writ,
can scarcely sit through her own tediously
scripted fecklessly poetical verses moreover
embittered embellishments 'tween the blank
spaces of her once upon a failed phantasma...

This should be easy
Store Baked? (assumes better)
Brand Name? (assumes integrity)

Store baked:
39 lines of ingredients
4 of those lines real food

Brand names:
Same as above, but
Ahhh!
Found!

A brand from Milwaukee
(rye)
4- lines
Edible ingredients!

Nice slice of spam
Perfect!

a neighbour takes umbrage
at his own narrowness 
then vents rage
on us who so witnessed 
momentary flicker of flame

there is no judgment and yet
the aspect that so clings
assumes ownership
quite delusional of course 
and therein lies the dilemma 

we opt to be still
fanning not the fire...

winter maiden shows
                            sunrise splendor and wonders ~
                                   assumes distant fire

To assume is to judge 
to accuse based on assumption 
is incompetent.
Assumption without full knowledge
creates friction.
Choosing ones words carefully
shows respect and responsibility
as well as charactor.
An individual whom assumes and takes quick
action upon that assumption projects
insecurity within ones self.
Never Assume....

Our earth life vessel 
assumes an identity
for our brief sojourn,
helping us to navigate 
treacherous terrain,
choppy seas on moonless nights,
for which we’re thankful,
whilst at all times self-aware,
of the light of Self,
which we were, are and will be,
for all time to come,
so merely as a witness,
we embrace and release love....

If he exists or not is not the point 
It is faith that keeps us on 
Words from pops, words of soul
So every Sunday is church day
But the preacher has me in knots 
He assumes he exists and that's the point 
My suspension of disbelief is needed most 
The narratives are wise, the stories tight 
But I met God and I don't think he is him...

Everybody assumes

you like dogs

especially their dog

sprung from its tether

breaking for you

this morning

all a-scud over the gravel

propelled by yeasty, toothy

gushing grins

	homing in on you	  over there
	
	fossilized, frozen by 

	by the dumpster’s     Gape,

	one less

	cat person

the world won’t miss....

The kundalini moves in form as She likes,
wherein we are but a humble receptor
and as in time dissolved stillness rapture spikes,
soma nectar pierces each body vector,
so there is no cause for us to look askance,
when the navel chakra assumes a bliss stance,
for node any, we have no say in this play,
of divine magnetism rising day by day....

I breathe in today
And exhale my past
Neither defines my existence
A ghost with flesh assumes me
Grasping perceived truth in every
Frailty of human condition
Only admission of failure is real
Sharing this emotion with another
Brings me peace
A smile between two who know
Sets me free to search my soul
For the happiness I seek
