on a heart that won't catch on

Premium Member As Fast As Light Rondelet
As fast as light 
I’ll become a cataclysm.
As fast as light 
frustrated by something so trite;
Jolting cup of optimism;
Hooked by all that magnetism 
as fast as light....

signal of approaching cataclysm?
we can't see the gauntlet
it's past the cunning poison
a villain of his own timeline

piqued by an illiquid New Moon
Level 2 risk for severe stratagems
Earth braces for an apocalyptic slap
this time it could break...

Despair and Extinction
Candle burning, at both ends
Spend it all, fast as it spends

Despairing, dying, bleeding heart
Cry for mercy, get torn apart

Shattered world, broken sky
Cataclysm coming, we all shall die

Ticking bomb, dwindling time
Destroy the Earth, our final crime...

Premium Member Christmas Cataclysm
Christmas day on planet E
each pine tree
deliciously planted
uprooted

the sky is tinsillated, stars replaced by screwy bulbs

and to top it all off – mind you, like a cherry on top

a fat man in a red suit is flying through outer space

a  U N I V E R S A L  catastrophe...

Touched By Terrorism
Touched by terrorism


T ortured, traumatized touched by terrorism
O utrageous onslaughts obliterate innocence
U nprecedented Ultra-extremist atrocities
C auterized consciences create cataclysm
H emorrhaging  humanity hopelessly held hostage.

The Cataclysm
I saw a pigeon;
I heard a ' bang!'.
There was no bird.

I saw a plaice; 
I heard a 'splash!'.
There was no fish.

I saw a tree; 
I heard a 'hack!'.
There was no forest.

I saw a house; 
I heard a 'boom!'.
There was no shelter.

I saw a Man;
I heard a “nothing!”.
There was no being....

Cataclysm of Light
First,
there was an exploding sound,
everyone looked around,
then the plane was going down,
the captain heard
his co-pilot utter a curse word,
but before he could take another breath,
and prepare himself for death,
the plane exploded in a cataclysm of light and sound,
and moments later,
only debris hit the ground....

Room With a View

A room with a view of the sea
Where waves roll in with the breeze;
With sunlight invading the place,
Casting shadows of ambivalent grey.

The vista one sees is hard to reiterate
When distance and time co-operate;
In a shrinking world out there in space
To the cataclysm at the edge of the bay....

Message Left
MESSAGE LEFT

While you were out, the world came to an end
There was no cataclysm, no protesting cry
No final trumpet call to comprehend
But long exhaling breath, communal sigh

I tried to call: lines busy, no connection
I suppose I was not alone with a message, above
all other concerns and issues of every complexion:
this one universal assurance of unending love...

Too Heavy
Hollow within myself,
I walk upon thin ice convinced it won't crack
But when it does,
consumed will be by my sanity
Learning to accept the acceptance
I've avoided for far too long
I only wished there was a mutual path
But this I take alone
I go down alone, to help those above
I shed not a tear on my own cataclysm
I waste not a breath on faith
And not a drop of blood on pity
I drown silently....

Truth and Trauma
Don't know when
The cataclysm came
Or what God wrested
From his heart

Is it true
When we circle
Or choker chains
That the entire radius 
Is all arranged?

Who gives the power
To create?
Through what cause and effect
Do we make our mistakes?

A reminder
To be kinder
Love cannot be vengeance
Peace cannot be forged
In war

The seeds of Now
Are finding their roots
And will eventually
Always 
Find the truth...

Creating damages that will cause a hole
A powerful bang, pulling down the pole
The tree has fallen, no place for the owl
A U-turn becomes a continuous roll
Causing so much effect to break the bowl
Long lasting deviation, making the toll
Young soul affected, or of nation’s goal
Scarce invertebrates for the hungry mole
Major change, devastating to the whole...

Premium Member Altruism
Actions or gestures putting the senses into baptism
Love so pure and powerful, spreads beyond evangelism 
True concern, effective enough to dilute cataclysm
Rates of its occurrence, not significant in life’s prism
Under goodness adrenaline and hyperthyroidism
Irreversible kindness, too strong for evil’s cultism
So selfless to cushion any emotional vandalism
Measure so humane to trigger negative’s unionism...

Dumpty's Fall
was not of folly, but of choice,
for saccharine safety on the higher ground
inside the wall
would cloy his sulpherous soul
and beating down his moble sacrifice
install a glutenous presumption 
of a unity unworthy of him.

No, there must be cataclysm
in  the leap, dragoons enlisted,
and a lamentation worthy of the feast...
the sighing tempered not by hominid
nor beast, but by a stubborn memory 
of infant sleep,
beguiled by nothing more
than fragments in the grass.
