The Road 1

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
Form: Lyric


sixtytwosevens or AgodlessElohim

Anointed in Kerosene to confer in agony with ignited desecration of mortal flesh to bone, seared by melting anguish writhe blistering contortions through a suppressed discomfort in furious continual thresh heshers pernicious by physical immolation.

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 27-February-2022 Quietus

Baby Face What's You Thinkin

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

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.

Premium Member Rope Is Not the Snake

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. 27-May-2022

Premium Member FELINES

Fluffy full or fine, my kitty-cat babies are fur lush soft
Ever kept styled with cutely rude contortions for sandpaper
Licks that make fur perfection which my cats often wish to 
Include me with tongue tickle love giving me giggles ~
Nudged cat kisses are delivered as head butts to
Express their unconditional love that seeps my heart
Saturated with gratitude for my precious cat's sweet love.

Premium Member Hope Prevails

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

Premium Member Leaders and Statesman

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.'

This Lonely Soul

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
