Awe inspiring moments
Beautiful, blissful mess
Chaotic confusion; Calamitous
Devotion, broken hearts healed
Mother's love revealed...

MORNING CLEANSING

Nightmares portend calamitous outcome
Masks of doom pretend to breathe
Nettles hang on morning shower rods
Nightmares dissipate behind steamed doors

Loving Eve

C Caressing the cusp of her calamitous clouds

A Atoning all angst of my alluvial angel

R Retrieving resolve for roaring rainbow’s recall

E Enlightening Eve’s essence for eternal embrace

birds fly high and die
airplanes casually crash ~
within vital cells

jets plow proudly
calamitous hoppers cleave ~
bombs blow balloons

none responsible
wars fought won laurelled and lost ~
cool clouds camouflage

Timeless tapestry of love transfixed
Omniscient oracles of my soul eclipsed
Undying love for you reviving remains
Cathedrals praying poetic pensive pains
Hibernal hearts with calamitous chains.

Mammals cried on the domestic site.
They were pursued by homeless shelters.
A calamitous plan destroyed the primate.
Declaring war creeped on mining wheelers.
Deforestation triggered ruins.

They left a ministerial threat.
Incendiary propaganda mouthed great.
The rules crawled havoc with it.
State gave them a baleful coat.
Nocent chemical found it....

UNDERTOW


stress and undertow
pull my calamitous legs
hourglass empties sand
~
sun beads on my brow
the sea encircles my flesh
driving me under
~
but for God, i’d drown
my spirit within me fights
my tired flesh gives in
~
God catches my fall
he carries me to the shore
he kisses my head

(I)
Father,
What calamitous suffering
have I summoned
upon myself?
for I desecrate
the temple
thou carved
from marble blocks
in thy image

(II)
I seat myself
at the hedonists’ banquet,
where neo-Pagan cantations
swirl around the chamber,
as my own razored pangs
press upon me,
plunging into
the rot of my carcass,
lacquering the
charred enamels of my
debased grin...

When
jade Specks
of desire
carved a raven
calamitous shape
of coal-crescent, 
losing the
last soil
once

My
lilac
heart of rouge
runes, shimmered in
galaxy, lathered
with embers of
laced life for
soul of
thou

I
float in
rose quartz haze
befogged upon
starlit symphony's
hymnal moondust,
strolling in
perfumed
'You'.

On Anger

From nowhere does the sandstorm break
A surge that ends calamitous
That carries all before its wake
Casts in the pit of; Emptiness

The summer streams that babble on
To winters stormy seas
The hurricane that won’t be gone
Born of the gentle breeze

All moves within its sphere to burn
How swift that piercing arrow flies
Call at once …. for its return
A wish …. The wounded heart denies....

weather report

sun is lost again
air is drab,  too close,
perfect affectation to 
play across the landscape
of my muffled mind.

many days have begun 
and/or ended this way.
neighbours send up fire 
crackers to placate god 
break up the celestial portents.

explosion, fire, reveals
the bland face of cloud which
blocks our  visions. neither wizard 
nor rain maker needed. we 
end with a calamitous whimper....

Mother of all Evils



You,
Hard-of-hearing,
Dweller of darkness,
Mother of all evils:
Ignorance

You, who are unable 
To hear the truth,
Even though it is spoken
Through the mouth of
Thunder,
But who easily discern 
The fainting whispers
Of monstrous lies, 

Why don’t you open, 
For once,
Your detrimental prison
Of calamitous darkness 
And let luminous knowledge
Establish its dominion
For humanity's sake?

Sacrifice

Sacrificial solitudes traumatically trapped thru out time
Sabotaged souls subservient to the Necronomicon night
A selfless surrender sanctioned with a calamitous climb
Penal punitive pondering of the marauding mind's abyss
A slave seducing deviation from the mantra morals amiss
For infinities infraction the absorption of a stigmatic smite.

Preposterous hippopotamus laughs at scandalous rhinoceros. 
Precipitous, calamitous cumulus leaks rain on head.
Furious, igneous volcanoes spurt copious lava, aqueous and amphibious into sea. 
But despite the acrimonious albuminous setting,
anxious, ignominious and siliceous bed fellows, make amorous love anyway
wearing polymorphous, ponderous and porous pajamas in bed,
and enjoy anomalous couscous made by anonymous, ambidextrous, audacious, cantankerous cook....

The time spent is beyond beautiful 
Though it's sometimes never resourceful 
Hoping it not to be a calamitous rendition  
Since we come together without a single intention 


It's time to let go
Focus my thoughts on achieving my goal 
Having the incite its not going to be easy
Giving zero tolerance to idleness always want to be busy


Experience lectured me in a hard way
Given no chance to smile for a single day
Making correct my very BUT
Shedding off the garment covered with dot...
