DRY


Look clearly and you will see:
Dry humour confronts me.

Confronts reflection,
                                    psychotic image triggers
                                          his apocalypse!

Words, words, how do you feel?My emotions cascade in a stream.The crisis confronts me head on.Enough is enough, let chance,let faith set sail.

begone ,sense of otherness-

My
despair
confronts me
I sit lonely
looking out window
neon lights flickering
the building across the street
silhouettes and shadows enter
my fear of ghosts and ghouls undeterred
wanting to party but still too bashful...

What a dreadful experience must be 

For the one who peace in his heart hasn't found

When he withdraws into himself some calm to get

Confronts instead an angry crowd!

Truth confronts
All said and done


Grace reveals
Fate in goodwill


Joy arrives
Syncs love's bold dive


Peace abides
Here by your side


Play attests
To zeal and zest

If lack of love confronts you,
face him with love...
If he doesn't abdicate
don't surrender...
If he revolts,
treat him with
further love yet...
If none is worth it,
offer him truly and calmly,
with tenderness, the exit door... !...

Quatrain #236:
WILD


Watch for the poise in wild and free,
Indulge fine voice that comes to be;
Live flair and choice as soul inspires,
Deed confronts noise in fine medley.

FATE


Feel how fate shows the path of chance,
Ask that you know the way of trance;
Time now must flow as space confronts,
End and start grow as circles dance.

Humdrum encounters of aging:

I walk clouds in a vision of epiphany
glaring cavillingly at a world beneath me
peeling back scabs of failure
a negative spiralling albatross;
a wider perspective of clarity confronts 
“life’s too short for this crap  ”...

From the blue the intense downpours
pull off impurities of floors.
Burst into tears eases the hearts
and confronts upsets of all sorts.

Embracing indecision,
abandonment confronts you

My branches sharp and pointed,
my roots all buried deep

I pity your reluctance,
as the forest casts you lonely

A single tree in meadows vast
—alone against the wind

Change confronts sure poise
Silence births word choice
Deep stillness holds voice
Beyond empty noise

Now truth speaks most dear
Strange sultry good cheer
Drowns that hollow fear
Love leaps laughing here

The yellow metal 
protecting the unborn
will catapult to outrageous heights.

*

Sky confronts the Mars
in improvisation. On earth,
the dead were lying side by side.

*

Ah, the mercy killing
of oneself. Out of compassion
or taking a revenge ?

Pray for kind grace to bless each day,
Love confronts fear with glimpse of peace;
Apt sacred space now funds bold stay,
Yes seize calm cheer that flavours ease.

FATHOMLESS CAN'T RESIST

fathomless I can't resist
the quietus confronts that ties
eternity rhapsody confronts and contest
the story as it's lies...

Turning from Christ

to disbelief;

as Satan confronts

the death

and hell…


Its expression

withering

the self and

its culture.


The suicidal genocide—

a gesture

in guilt's name

for stewardship's misdeeds:


Evil

in its self

Judgement.

There is a limpid bird
Shedding a rare feather,
Wilting the loose mind as 
The beak confronts loss.
Yes, I am simply falling
Into old skin and fresh dreams,
Beady eyes pocketing the sky
For a flight of my own, brazen
And loud, unvaned, yet straight,
An arrow of unfailing pose
Aiming for the heart of the flock....

Dull misty haze
Confronts my gaze;
Odd burning maze

~~~~~~~~~


Dry weather
Harsh hazy strokes;
Smoky fragrance

~~~~~~~~~


Skyline smog
City view collage;
Opaque countdown

~~~~~~~~~


Dusty evening air
Unhealthy range;
Burning sensations

vertiginous in a virulent cityscape
gagging on gritty gray gloom
luckless in a loveless race  
   at the bottom of a solipsistic sinkhole

(\\\\?!?!----!?!?\\\\)

exhausted by lucent losses
lying low & flying blindly behind 
sliding back into Whateverland
  where dust confronts the futile frontier...
