Short Confinements Poems

In dreams 
I can do anything
no feats impossible
I fly deep
into the abyss
conquering my fears
I am more 
alive inside
Than I’ve ever been
Released from
the confinements of 
this life’s mortal limits...

The sheltering of are heart is pure
for God covers it with his love
but the bonds of flesh try to escape
to leave the confinements of are soul
what is this flesh to us?
is it not just meat and bone?
is not are soul a means to an end
and a new beginning.......

Distance star
Grounded altitude
Fleeting lights
Spacious sites
Universal darkness
Evasive
Planetary confinements
Universe
Galactic breeze
Unending debris
All this in the deep black sky called
...~outers space~

Four valved compartments
Quadruply lock you up from the devils
Push you nearer to God
With no bargains for confinements and short - cuts
No bargains for freedom but the rules
No bargains for dignity but the truths
No bargains for sentiments but only logics
Just for a normal blood circulation
And a positive way of life...

May the beauty of Nature in Spring,
Fill you with wonder, joy and peace,
Through this unsettling era so baffling,
Supporting you til our confinements cease.

Isolated of necessity this holiday season,
Yet thankful for animals in our lives,
who buoy and console, our mutual love easing,
Strains we'll soften with safe hugs to survive!

I exist between these lines,
a place that I call home
The space between the bars,
It's the only thing I've known
I've dreamt of what it's like
to roam the vastness
Where there isn't any structure ,
absolutely no confinements
but these lines are where I was placed,
I guess it's where I'm meant to be
But when the pages are turned, and all is dark
I dream that I am free...

Stuck
Help me
I cannot move
I have forgotten your name

Stuck
With no escape
Only this abjectness
And the entirety of my pain

Stuck
But I have a plan
I will overwhelm my body with oxys
Then barf the life right out

Stuck
Now; in the confinements
Of a failed institution
Nowhere to go-
My only choice
Was to travel adventurously 
Down to
The furthest extent of
My viciously evolving thoughts...

Time is just fractures in space
That loops
Around the bend of eternity,
Holding the world in a tight grip of
Structure, that takes away the natural
Order... So we stay in the grind of
Imaginary confinements,
Dragging chains, fueling the bondage
Of generations that have lost their way
Feeding the belly of the beast
Till it's all consuming...
So time steals souls and feeds the
Deception that keeps us
Blind and deaf to the present moment....
