Medieval German Castle

Stone for stone, this raised grandeur
With the mountain's contends.
Beauty, austere. With both hiding
Terror's own face within!

One's stormy past of fierce-struck
Outcries, most barbarous
Wolf-sharp, flashingly echoed
Afar stormed; elked and roed.

Becoming Life

Blossoming flowers growth. Growth contends and assures life. Life via water and sun is nurtured. Orchard acts likewise. Allies like forests and all living things. Things that nature supports like other species. Entities from sea and land, like a woman and man. Human life, like all others, is blessed with its beginning.

Insurging the Purging

Entered in “relevance”
Exit by consequence….

To the measure of temporary.. and unequal flaws,
While passions “unknown” court an unseizeable throne,

Ignite the cerebral and  insight in emerging stages, 
As the “wise” of life contends and contests,

Amid turbulent changes and far ranging rage!
On such signs ends an age...

Magdalena

Magdalena,
  your beauty known

Magdalena,
  your wisdom shown

Magdalena,
  firm and steadfast

Magdalena,
  communed repast

Magdalena,
  so loved a man

Magdalena,
  his blood in hand

Magdalena,
  though history scolds

Magdalena,
  your heart withholds

Magdalena,
  much more than friend

Magdalena,
  —the truth contends

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2019)

Projecting

Definitions strain contends defensively
no obligation of restraint ~ creativity
lures its object, beauty, to the mind
and leaves insipidness behind, behind!

Nor desecrate as if alone
reactions tempered my unknown,
insolvent only as to loan
does liquify its purpose own!

Then dissipates as if my prone
were self existing, ne'er by sown ~
To live my art, I must condone
needs deprivation . . . for my poem!

Antonio Thinks Cesario Is Sebastian

The law authorities apprehended a man named Antonio. I have never met him before as he is someone I don't know. He contends that a while ago, he gave me some money. Now he wants it back to pay for bail that would set him free. Antonio kept calling me "Sebastian"; this seemed like an oddity. This action suddenly got my mind to be thinking. Is it possible my brother survived the ship sinking? Based on the play "Twelfth Night" by William Shakespeare.

The Peacemaker

The Peacemaker

Your innocent eyes 
Mask the wisdom behind them
Sweet tenderness
Layered by bricks
You never falter

Your longing heart 
Contends with a bridled spirit
Innocent dreams
Thickened by fog
You never know freedom

Your never-ending patience
Shields the frustration within
Calm acceptance
Surrounded by thorns
You never judge

Your unfailing kindness
Cascades over rocks and stones
Pure loyalty
Encompassed by bitter truth
You never forsake us
