Premium Member Encapsulate An Emotion

Popcorn pops!
The bag swells with golden steam. I stop
the microwave to top off papa's favorite bowl.
Salt christens the glistening treat
and I retreat into the family room twilight

as papa pushes play.

as attention softens, our soul glistens 
all we do is stop thought interference
nodes within form, kundalini christens
by grace of course and heart’s perseverance 
paving way for ego’s disappearance 
as the silent witness poised in the void
we reclaim soul’s light, pure and unalloyed

Premium Member Showing Him Someone Cares

she christens the lake where her lover’s body was found
they say suicide, she thinks murder.
no one will convince her otherwise.
there are sides of him you did not know, his mother said.
maybe the worst mother in history.
She puts the flowers into the water, letting them drift.
confident they will find their way to his spirit,
showing him that someone cares very much about his journey

Rebel Yell

In the sunken hollow a gray mass 
addles
A silhouette of swaying muskets 
shadows
Braying horses the silent vigil 
rattles
A curdling breeze across feted 
expanse prattles

The stilled pageant concludes with 
the order, "charge"
From sheltering tree line, a 
disheveled mass doth barge
A shrieking, cacophonous chorus 
christens the onslaught
Menacing octave wafts;
Union, tidal waves to 
distraught
war
