Short Containment Poems

Violent workings;
Corvid containment;
Prayers for derailed;
I rebuke this pandemic;

seeping from beneath
a bilious hate
a thick and blackened rage
containment breached
small fissures
mar the core
of tortured fate
smoldering ruins
of a life
to date

I whip my pen out,
Like a man eager,
To unleash his readied member,
From its containment.

My notebook poised,
The anticipating woman
Who quivers slightly,
In open blankness,
Waits to be conquered,
By feverish ink....

in the open air
cacophonous solitude ~
quiet containment

the pert butterflies
speckled and multicoloured ~
flittering about

Often I have looked back in awe and wonderment;
My faith is challenged in blessed containment
I must stop in peace and breathe
My faith in God is just soul real

AUSTRALIA



Big  empty home of the  kangaroo
Where  all  real patriots are  true blue
People  upside down from Alice to Perth
Hiding down there underneath the earth
Continent    incapable  of  containment
Unlimited scope for  inverted attainment...

Open eyes easy environment
Aurora mini passions virtual horizons
Rainbow cues
Solar views
Terrestrial containment
Retna viewed blurred pixie verizon
Sparkle hues
Nature's jumping hoops
Kaleidoscope

Three years of 'police action,'
Conducted according to 
The doctrine of 'limited war,'
In order to pursue 
A policy of 'containment.' 
Police action?
Containment?
Limited war?
Guess that’s why 
I don’t feel like Patton 
Pissing in the Rhine.
War is all hell.
Don't sugar coat it....

I'm just a living being 
Captured and placed
In containment 
Extraterrestrial 
Got me captured taking me for a ride 
in a a vogonianmother ship-
 Universe they hide 
Where are your eyes
 I feel you're touching me.. 
    vogon absolute abduction

Quietude serves silence of mind
location of consciousness unknowable
time and space the containment
going somewhere, anywhere
it’s a bird, it’s a plane
it’s make believe only,
I don’t realize any of it
projections of stuff made up
how do I remember the solution
when I have woven the story
into my bosom of a thousand years?...

Days of darkness 
Amoung many 
Reluctant souls
Kept locked away 
Never ending
Emotionally drained
Sadened by all
Suddenly dying within

Containment
Resulting in
Enormous
Eruptions
Pertianing to
Self-hatred

While
Infinous others seek
To be
Happy you
Intergrate yourself with horrible
Notions of pain, suffering, and guilt...

autumn be's 
fall leaves on a tree
 visual colorful
 beautiful bountiful 
covering blossoming photo synthesis
 colorful leaves in a containment 
feed me visually marginally laming cover me


 colorful beautiful Daughter of God
 You are Autumn's eyes so, calls

Ice is water that held the container tight 
and found the shape of its containment just right. 
Water has no shape when not confined, 
No dish, no jar, or holding wall to design. 
Vapor is water without many friends 
Up from the heat and containment it assends....

TIRED     KINDERGARTEN     TEACHER 


I love their cute,  fresh, open minds
But teaching  comes in different kinds
One day  I succeed in  planned  teacher-telling
The way to do things properly 
Next day  I  fail like a drunk in charge of a watermelon
Kids are like balls of mercury
Their containment is in serious  doubt
Exhaust me like a lemon at maximum squeeze-out....

To once transcend and yet remain here
A life, what was, some wind hath lain here.

A fortress sinks by fate and blood
What glory, tell, made life adorned here?

Supple trace of ill containment
So forced from death but to be chained here.

Lilac crumbs mark travels homeward
Or a path unseen to life beyond here.

How I, a rose on nested silk
Make peace at last to travel on here....

Seedlings,
Starting from nothing,
Born into something,
Creating cells out of air.

Presence,
I speak and know that they sense me,
In a sense,
The beings in this place,
Are still beings with faces,
Or at least,
The ones we're looking for.

Containment, 
Life cannot be held at bay,
It flows right back,
Abundance fills the atmosphere,
And holy smells fill the air....

so is autumns dawn
crossing over horizon
deep in it's path dull 
~
lit lights orange bright
dispensing shadows of hues
horizontal views
~
falls autumns trees waves
in the autumn breeze so blown
colors view orange 
~
hues completely  drained
containment of yellows, reds
browns, aqua shades

A node between Bindu and Medulla
brightens, enlivened by the bliss current,
tangoing in tandem with the Ajna,
while spacial heart looks on in contentment,
at ignition defying containment.
The energy path is mysterious,
unmistakable and continuous
in the pulsations within manifest,
myriad prismatic hues beauteous,
as purring bliss reaches for higher crests.

full of embraces
I was a hug and you a cover
Preceding and proceeding a squeeze
Shouldering
Body temperature exploding
Rising temps
Incorporate consists
Lust rails relentless
I crave inducement, yet in containment
We unlock our embracement
Nothing but our eyes eye are spurning
Must stop burnings

As the ends circle around to justify the means;
Individuality soon becomes the victim of inevitability.
And where justice often lies within the realms of affordability;
The balance of punishment is often counter measured by net worth.
And as the fences of containment slowly; closes the gap on diversity;
“We the people;” may soon find ourselves;
The occupants of a newly found and kept habitat...

source of admissions binding
so sad am I
economics plea monetary displacement
depressed am I
Boston liquidation spreeing
Whoop and collar untied shoe laces containment
so sad am I
Who are we to run a race
When we have flake false faces
feeling of despair, obvious cause pensive, tension
so sad am I
Melancholy

Dream can be reality,
you make the choice.
Become what you know you can,
listen to your inner voice.

Stand strong in what you believe.
be like a rock!
Look beyond walls of containment,
see outside the box.

See victory up ahead,
right at the next turn.
You’re the only one standing in your way.
When will you learn?

But remember,
God is in charge
and that He is love.

Always do the right thing
as He watches from above....

Obscured secrets
 hidden deep within my mind and soul
 Controlled by fear
 Suspicion perpetually acknowledged 
 Senses dominated by containment

 A house of deceit from lies which deception is built
 Burying the imperfections not to be shown

 My mind always playing tricks on me
 Never knowing if I will be found out
 Fear always in the back of my mind

 Will the entanglement of my deception become to much to bear?...

Continue to push me further,
Force my vision into a raging blur,

Inevitably consumed by the vengeful fire,
Despising you with my every fiber,

Assuming me to be your personal jester for your entertainment,
With such cynical thoughts you would have me in containment,

One day you'll see the abandoned hat on the ground,
You'll search but your jester wont be found,

Till the hour you're sentenced for your heinous crimes,
Until that day I'll bide my time....

Perseverance of many things that may not be controlled,
Actions not always taken on the fly without any regard,
Truth and value of all things and continually patrolled,
Intentional gain of thought will never end hands barred.
Exceptionally this virtue will allow such deep passion.
Never going off the wall in excitement that makes a fall,
Cleverness in containment of emotions may be old fashion.
Each of us needs to think, before overacting on what we saw....
