Insanity triggers
Cerebral trip switch
Flickering light

Walls collapsing
             Silence ensues

My Cerebellum

the cerebral mist 
mysteriously complex
where the spirit lives

Cerebral Hemorrhage

This Poetry bleeds from my brain
('Tis only a scratch; no more the worse)
And I write, just to ease the pain
(My Mind: it aches; it burns; it hurts)

A Word

Quiesance

Quiesant passion
love me lazily
Earth love.

Quiesant fear
love me hauntingly
Cerebral love.

Need you I God
God I need you
Earth and Universe
Speak of love.

A Wanderlust Cerebral


A Wanderlust Cerebral
A circuit 'round a star

Home of the "Ever Homeless"
Whom else could care to own less

A course that's never ended
of spirit-bliss unbarred

A Little Spook

I saw a little spook fumbling for my key
"Oh Oh what a damn clumsy job it must be"
He showed me his creepy rear
And cerebral hemisphere
" Pinch pennies" that he said, and began to pee.

Premium Member An Ode to My Cerebral Cortex

My cerebral cortex - 
indeed, you are the vortex, 
processing my senses,
the place where joy condenses.
It's to you I owe
every pretty sky, 
each note that makes me sigh, 
and grandma's apple pie. 
Please don't ever go.

Premium Member No Hope For You

Whatever is in your cranium can be swept away with a broom. For a larger cerebral cortex, there is apparently no room. Since you came into the world, you have been like a mushroom. That is why since your birth, you have been a boomboom.

Premium Member Albert Einstein

I salute and extol  as we should super brain Albert Einstein,
whose cerebral prowess an ultimate flowering vine,
of quirks he had many consult the sticking tongue picture,
he tired of that smile so inane as a permanent stricture.

God's Children

We're all God's children,
To do with being human,
Some souls of souls we've got,
If you believe it or not,
Creating in our cerebral cortex,
It's tough humans  made this vortex,
Why do we think we're King Rex,
Suppose it's because we're human,
We're all God's children......

Premium Member There's a Metaphor Awaits You

Sharpen those swords
        of cerebral wit

      Thrust deep for just the right word
        Great writing's never blurred

     There's a metaphor awaits you
        the only one that'll ever do

     To probe and pierce the minds
        with whom you ~ connections find

Premium Member Duping the Demons

I often wake up tired
Too much cerebral housecleaning
Dusting, filing, musing
Feeding the demons
They are less likely to act up
If they are nurtured
Recognized for what they are
I no longer fear them
But they must be kept
Cowering in the dark
Waiting for me
To tuck them in

Premium Member Nostalgia

Nostalgia hides within the hopes
Of the present
Sours as it passes
Tucks itself into cerebral
Alleyways
Lingers in fitful dreams
Grows as it ripens
Ignites the trembling torch of
Ageing's adolescence

CEREBRAL WILDERNESS


Though each mind is a jungle of thoughts,  
It’s a sanctuary where ideas are sought.

Fertile tender brains go haywire, 
With negative creativity the media conspires.

Navigating today’s youth is a terrain to conquer,  
Rampant malicious acts uncover the dysfunctionality that prospers.

Tragedy In Black

Tragedy in Black

Come,
Feel it.
Can you sense
Human unrest?
Perhaps jealousy
Creates blurred perception,
Brings unhealthy obsession~
Impairs cerebral functioning
Isolates one and carves out a void.
Trapped in shadows purple black tones avail.

Patrick Wilson

Patrick lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, 
Plays boccia and has Cerebral Palsy,
Which very slowly turned his hand,
Until he started to win intelligently. 

The Scottish Championships gave, 
An arena for him to prove and shine, 
Such that he took the silver stave, 
At the 2014 Worlds in China land fine.

It Drifts

in the valley of the moon...it drifts
light and white, a dense fog
waiting for closed eyes and unguarded thought
images impale cerebral hemispheres
whimsically it dallies, a shadow on dark walls
flashes of color play on the backdrop of dreams
while softly it whispers a lullaby 

a sweet dream comes

Recycled Treasure

My heart has accepted every piece of furniture
you have brought in and hoarded, polished and stored, 
for show or hidden in the attic of cerebral storage. 

Cobwebs draped the entrances I walked through
without wincing, chasing extinguishing light…
gold tarnishing possibilities that I found invaluable.

Emotional

Time that memories have not erased, sad and stuck in the cerebral

Everlasting stains like the blood one sheds on a cross from a crucifixation

Agitated at the family, friends and lovers that leave

Renegade on emotions water for the rage to calm the flame

Serenade the ground with a lonely girls tune
sad

Premium Member Cerebral Arachnid Inspiration

What's that I hear -
could it be a spider in my ear?
To some, it might inspire fear, 
but that response is too severe - 
he'll soon disappear, 

crawling into my waiting brain,
if only to escape the rain. 
I'm glad I left him alive, unslain,
as he inspired this poem, insane. 
Spider - come visiting again.

His Wishing Well

Always drawn to stronger women,
  in a cerebral kind of way

He missed the charm of a softer maiden,
  the joy her flowers splayed

He married a woman just like him,
  who made life a living hell

To die while dreaming of that one sweet lass,
  her heart—his wishing well 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2017)

Mental Residency

Scouring cerebral rooms.
Lost in the hallways of feeling.
Locked in emotional tombs.
Each key now revealing..
A door behind a door.
A mansion in my mind.
Apathetic drive carpeted floor.
Blue prints undefined.
Eclectic paintings hang.
Crooked on walls of peeling plaster.
Then my door bell rang.
Welcome to my mental disaster.

Cerebral Peace

STOP!!!!
The person at this address has moved

He went to find his mind
it left a while ago

For a year he's been fumbling around
aimlessly without a brain

bumping into walls and stubbing his toe
walking blindly through cities with nowhere to go

Now he's left, 
in search of cerebral peace

I'll let you know if he finds it.
