Our brains push away
  as humanity pulls

Beautiful music warms my cochlea
Awesome footwork amuse my cornea
The spectacle dazzle my cerebrum
Oh splendid scenery,feed my Organs...

some brain damage isn't physical

but a sudden assault

by sights, sounds or circumstance

that leave the cerebrum

asunder

Okay, where did we come from
Do other beings speak our tongue
Highly doubt it
Could they outwit us
They'd need a larger than normal cerebrum...

Ever notice how cauliflower
Resembles an image of brainpower
Some big some small
Some not there at all
But my huge cerebrum couldn't be prouder...

Been having nightmares, each night it's the same
Wake up wanting to attack, murder and maim
A psycho I've become
Into the abyss I have swum
Right and left halves have joined hemis in my cerebrum...

Muse

As I sit here I wounder what it could be, 
this blank void of inspiration?

Your beauty eludes the masses, 
as your spectral light penetrates my lobes 
an electrical energy vibrates my cerebrum.  

Do I deserve such attention from such ethereal beings?...

a plum, a peach, a song, a beach
  a bend, a curvy straightaway
a bob, a dip, a dunk, a screech
  a hair-breadth turn took your future away

you nerveless nock, how dare you rock
  this sanctimonious cerebrum with poppycock
it behooves you to hoof it to Timbuktu ~
  haunting howls from the bowels of Montezu...

The sphere of influence influenced me spherically
With no core
Left brained hemisphere confused
Like right handed athlete
Co-ordination on my medulla-oblongata 
Peripheral nervous system shuttered down
As cranial nerves refused to send impulses 
Failure to interpretation on my cerebrum
Lead to my confusion.

Inside of your cerebrum
Dark Angels reside
  After you have spent your
 energy during a hectic day
Dark Angels will dance in 
   your head 
They will speak to you 
  Let you know where you stand
  Those Dark angels speak the truth 
  You had better take note of them 
or face bitter consequences
The war within
               must come to an end...

Blame it on warm beer
at the stoplight.

My cerebrum throbs,
hodgepodge of noises:
windshield wiper's whirring whine,
depressing drone of tired traffic,
primeval beat of hip-hop sound;

the most jolting thing
in my line of vision:
a strapping traffic officer, his pen
and clipboard menacingly poised
to render judgment on me.

Blame it on warm beer
at the stoplight!...

Immeasurable Infinity

unfathomable
aware of the Universe
karma
WHAT WILL BE WILL BE

open cerebrum
literally limitless
now
OBSERVE YOU WILL SEE

Some logic foregone
probable and possible
life
INFINITE COULD BE

nature amazes
microcosm divine
watch
EMULATE ITS PEACE

existential mode
humans adapt or implode
quest
PRIMAL BRAIN FIGHT FLIGHT

Wiping off unused cerebrum from your cortex
Making conundrums seem poisonous and complex
Swerving the toxins that others lay
Searching for your God when you kneel to pray
Why don't you look in the mirror you'll see him standing there
Through the pupils of context, May the outside providers beware
For it's you who control the masses of your own Glory
It's you that writes it you're the god of your story....

Y-shaped cerise pant
Unfolds treasures of the  flesh.
Love melts cerebrum



Fun edits sad soul
As gray sands turn paradise.
In laughter's ring tone
Endearment soaks the spirits
World is perfect in your arms.



Jealous Sea echoes your words
As poetry creeps from your soul
Sentry trees are not left out
They sway melodies. 



Written by: Joseph Osita
For Linda Marie’s contest:” Fun And Frolic"...

As a girl,
 I sat at the foot of
 A premier violinist…
  His music captivated the imaginations of all fortunate listeners
           The soulful notes escaped from his instrument thrusting
                   Into the cerebrum then
                          On to subconscious, subliminal mind
                               Heralding that music is no luxury
                                      But a necessity for a charmed existence...

Thinking can overtax the active mind
Thoughts flood the strata of the cerebrum,
Where’s vital information one should find
Cannot locate a fact, one feels so dumb,
Something that is normally rule of thumb.
Moments before on the tip of the tongue,
Much we have forgotten, since we were young
To be forgetful is so frustrating,
Suggesting needed synapses are sprung
Age can be so darn debilitating.
