concentric contortions

Sans
still life
or landscape
to distract my
eye-
will abstract
contortions
exercise or
lie ?...

The road
is
       Death's open yawn
epicentre
of strange treaties-
mist of starched martyrs
in trajectory's startled
steep,
mangled contortions
in frozen screams...

Swirling thought forms, by heart impulsed
Merely nurtured in brain
Contortions leaving soul convulsed 
Needless energy drain

Thought but an instrument
Rest it and be content
Within the bliss current

Onslaught in swarms
Swirling thought forms

You look long and
you look deep
safe in your
mother’s arms.

Do you wonder 
whatever is the
matter with all the
giants except 
your mother?
Most seem to ever make
odd sounds at you.
Some make 
facial contortions!
Not a word that
you can understand

Don’t they know 
know your lingo?

Nebulous Streams, Clouding My Brain

Sleeping death through timeless space
Nocturnal Nebulae that will displace
Misanthropic minds of clustered clouds
Bipolar builders of sacred shrouds

Elucidative echoes of enchanted eyes
Decussate delusions that shall arise
Carnal contortions camouflaging spheres
Deleterious dust expanding light years.

Rope is not the snake

It’s high time we cease,
praying to appease;
far cry from the truth,
we must seek forsooth.

When love’s our flagship,
no oneupmanship
contortions surface,
knowing all is grace.

Sunlight falls on all, 
as does the bliss squall ~
simply enable,
rather than label.

God in-dwells within,
so let’s go therein,
without any crutch,
knowing Him by touch.

a smile
so forced
contrived

your eyes
have lost their spark
i hardly recognize your face
as the contortions
betray the pain
for so long now
you’ve tried to dispel

the toll on your body
hard to bear
as exhaustion drains
the life out of you

the color flushed
quelling how fears grow
we strive to do our best
to stay forever hopeful

Manuel Lopez Obrador, and Jaier Bolsonaro'

You stand out, uniquely, from the political herd
Lickspittles by choice, and from others deffered.'
Others who louse-like cluster and croon
Who mutter in pryoxams, in the fidget of doom 
In spasms in contortions, in Masks of despair
Speilers and screamers from iniquity concurred 
Scwabing the poop-deck of a ruinous scow
Leaders so lost; are now wallowing as sows,
In a mire in amaze, I see no good; from them
No way; and no-how.'...

The mystical contortions
Of extortions unfold

With the critical exposure
Of emotions untold

Another informality
Where reason can't find it

Separate from reality
Yet constantly reminded

A blue cloudless day
With unregistered kindness

The rules will not stay
Love forgotten is timeless

Incredible, the outbreak
That held this all in

Returns, the cloudy day
With unforgettable sin

Unknown E.T.A
Destination arrival

Yesterday & Today
This lonely soul's survival...
