Short Clarifying Poems

I'm in an abstract mood
Snap me out of it
Drink me in, swirl me in your mouth and spit me out
Describe me
Is that what poetry is?
Take a taste and move on...

Thoughtfulness
Caring
Listen, clarifying
Sincerity and empathy
Happiness for another’s good fortune
Giving benefit of the doubt
Wisely not advising
Considerate

From Complexity to Simplicity

after questioning
I began philosophising
knowing my aim of analysing
a need of interpreting
of clarifying.

Now I know but not yet...

You emit light, I occupy shade
Would touch mean either of us fade

Sound travels 
Echo, absorb, resonate
Random, deliberate, destiny, fate

Orbit, scanning, clarifying 
Seeing, being, living, dying

You emit light, I occupy shade
Should they meet, choice then made...

Life invites deeply sacred purpose
when Love widely integrates
enlightened meaning
within co-invested minds,
passion,
from balanced bodies,
co-operating integrity
of healthy wealth's
most resilient potential

Life engaging 
deeply felt sacred mess
co-operatively owned and managed
EarthTribe clarifying purpose....

SUN

Sunset

At days end


Once enjoyed by us

Over our middle years

Time gains momentum on us


"The sun still sets each day, let's enjoy once again."

Guitar on fire
Blasting us with jazziness
Opening our horizons
Dragging us down in flames
Then revving us up and holding us in the air
Hostage to your strings

Guitar on fire
Showing the truth of our feelings
Dancing on the edge of the world
Showing our hearts your wild
Clarifying feelings we can show in no other way
We begin to dance
Hostage to your strings...

Divine instrument, is poetry
and only poetry with her magic vision,
who describes
the indescribable,
defines the indefinable,
exults the verisimilitude
of the simple, because
exceeds any limit
of the believable and the incredible
breaking the shackles
  of the mysteries..
Simplifying and demystifying
the obscurities by clarifying
any and all secrets
exposing emotional beauty
of poetry...!...

Sometimes I do
Sometimes I don't
Sometimes I will to
And want but won't

Sometimes I want
And can and will
'F'ya wanna know which one
Just ask, “What's the deal?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Semi-random thoughts on clarifying in collaboration vs. wild-wicked assuming solo.....

oh, wait!  I misspelled 'F'ya.. is only 'fya.. so much for indulgence.. hope I've not wasted y'all's time.. whew, that feels better!...

"Oh what a tangled web we weave, when we practice to deceive." Shakespeare


WEAVE
A web
Wind silk taunt

Sticky design hung
I'll oblige and walk in
Then try to get it off fast

"Another woven lie in which I'm trapped."     

wind pronounced as in the line "I will wind a ball of yarn"

Who Is That Masked Man
Miracle Man
October 6, 2023

Many will see him as being another schnook,
perhaps questioning if he’s ever had a real job.
But in my mind I see an unpunished crook,
someone with possible connections to the mob.

Each day his cognizance needs clarifying,
but in his world he’s convinced he’s grooving.
He hesitates saying “if I’m lying I’m dying,”
because he typically is if his lips are moving.

You are all here to see
Do you believe
Our Lord is here and will never leave
Surprise
He made you wise
Richfulness
Gracefulness
Brave
We helped save
A path well laid
Lifted our faith
Clarifying walk
Helped gather our thoughts
Recalled
Our love stands tall
Through the tenderness of our cotton
Love shall never be forgotten
Gave back to our community
Showing love to charity
A gentle care
Order to share
Saw beauty beyond
Creating this song...

So many things in life are concealed,
From secrets to questions we want revealed

Arduous our task,
These to unmask

So often hidden from view,
Answers but only clues

So we try to connect the dots,
To provide the right thought 

As to the answers we seek,
Clarifying all that is mystique 

Guilty so to we are,
Hiding what’s  behind our scars

Our remedy is to keep them inside,
For the motivation they provide

Reminding not to regret again,
And, only on you can you depend...
