Clocking Us
The clock tics upon the wall 
Planning the day 
To kill us all...

Babydoll shoes
in a split second clocking
the first mile of womanhood 
for a relative too close for comfort 
proximity is close enough...

Mind
Clocking is cloaking my plans,
Chasing me to drive home to
             unfurl my modus operandi,
Cramming my mind but the hazy thoughts,
Leaving me at length in the lurch !!...

Hail there old friend
Long lost long lost
Awaken to me

Flaky facebook people
Clocking up the numbers
Friend friend friend

Don't have faces
Friends in ether
Dust in reality...

On My Birthday
It was just a day, and 
I felt, I was snowing
In the great lagoon of fear and fantasy,
I publish my words...
Hoping that,
They would represent 
Me, beyond the measure of life;
And, into the cavity of truth --
Where my pulse ticks clocking....

Halloween Ghost
Locked in the frost,
Halloween seems like a gatepost, 

Fantasies turn into a permafrost,
Pumpkins next to the doorpost, 

Vampires at the rearmost,
Ghosts at the bedpost,
Wolves at the aftmost, 

Midnight clocking the midmost...
Sunrise cleansing the defrost....

Who Fills the Hour Glass?
Who fills the hour glass
Are there sand bags everywhere
Does a machine do it
Why do I even care

One granule, two granules
Three granules, four
How do you know to subtract
Or add more

What a sad occupation
You watching time pass
Clocking the second
Of sand in the glass...

Premium Member Poetry Somewhere
Somewhere in the Universe
I am clocking my mind
Be it on a poetry group
Or a dream sublime

Somewhere the time is right
We have limited time to do
So I pour my mind 
Into a poetry frame for you

I jot down a verse
An pen down a line
It all pours out of me
My thoughts now rhyme.

In Another Time
In a time of living loving loud
Where memories made were galactic gold
You're serene smile through a clusterous cloud
And our journey enviously extolled

Oh how I pray to turn back time
To have you in our precious hold
But time turns me like a clocking chime
As the past is left to memorially mould.

Ever Since
Ever since
Life is spasmodic
A broken realm
Of high and low tides

Ever since
There is no one to count
But pellucid self – 
Merging into oblivion 

Ever since
Time is clocking
Years surrender
To abundance of blame

Ever since
It’s unfinished wars
With narcissistic powers
That reign the rule 

Ever since
I have amassed wisdom
That life is too short
To invoke justice...

Taskmaster Time
The rosy sun has gone to bed
leaving me awake and all alone
upon this mountain where I sit staring
at the twilight sky yawning to stars,
pricking at the sky’s deep purple canopy.
Give me longer arms to grasp time’s 
swift hands slowing his perpetual clocking rounds . . .
somewhere weary hearts must find such space;
the rosy sun has gone to bed.

Lust and Love
I write upon lust and love
Though neither are easy, 
lust and love persist freely 
Two truths seen from above
One of lust, One of love
Running with impatience and clocking duration 
Lust and love in strife as we walk in shadows of doubt 
Fire and desire, greed in need
What can solidify everlasting? Our smile, our discourse 
Or other attractions. 
Lust and love be not blamed , our reasoning is humane....

Systematically Contrived Dust
The universe is immeasurable,
  we are merely infinitesimal
      machinery keeping pace,
as churning cogs tick wildly 
  transmitting within allotted time, 
attempting heartbeats' cohesion
  clocking our own honed destinations,
accumulating illusions 'tween masses
   waiting to return as a speck of dust
      in the never-ending saga of
           inexhaustible collectives amidst
         systematically creative contrivances...

Stones
The clock drips time upon my soul
As trees paint Winter’s touch
I watch as alders pay their toll
And ashes creak with aching pain
It doesn’t really matter much
No one comes back again
This one way street of dragging feet
Is often lit with warming sun
And just as often rain
We twist and dance
And with romance 
Hand in hand we dare to chance
Love found we take the train
Life bound we will remain
Constant as the clocking stones...
