Short Contoured Poems

Dark lipstick kisses 
I colored outside the lines 
of your contoured neck; 
Oh darling I fancy you, 
outlined in all my passion....

Art
Van Gogh
Parisian fields, starry nights
Sunflower seed pods droop
The darkness of a Dutch post impressionist mind
But to us, striking colors and contoured lines....

a chance to slow-dance,
cupping contoured cheek
to shape an escape
into movements sleek,
rounding, re-sounding
without need to speak
of hope: life to grope
steeped in such mystique....

circadian crow
contoured cock hails sunburst dawn…
windmill churns gleamed cloud

Glued to her smartphone
Gaping at it
Her mouth contoured in a WOW
She herself plugged in
A human transistor
Eyes glowing, ears antennae
Batteries fully charged

pearl white driven snows
the views of winters follage
silver temperatures
~
beautiful flurries 
contoured granules floral 
drops of fallen snow

Take a photo of me in bed
In my lingerie 
While I fix my glare
On your contoured packs 

Let's jump, roll and tangle in play
And taste the sweetness of the morn
Pour in the valley of my breast, milk
Sponge it all up with your pink long tongue...

Channels within the windblown grass and contoured
shifting sand, stretch-probing as a spindle tree,
rouse echoing murmurs of the easeful sounds
of solitude, the slumberous sea, and me.
Entranced and mindful on this wild hypnotic shore,
Solitary maybe, and yet, alone no more....

But o,  But o

Comically wrong
almost from the get-go.
Lanky, legs coil a foot,
soon green not normal
a pile to be swept,
damaged and labeled.
Its thin  contoured face,
noise sound effects
rather than words,
his mind a mystery
still sweet,
but without a label.

It sloped like the hillock
Where I played as a boy
Then curved to a pillow
Of round contoured joy

It was poetry in motion
A rare joy to behold
A promise of mystery
And pleasures untold. 

But like art on the wall
Of the world's best museums
Best viewed from afar
The stuff of poetry and dreams...

patterned
 pale
 lyrical
   emptied
of

purified

in inverted

articulated

anchored

        by enigma...

pristinity of unfettered awareness
on earth hemmed in by senses
contoured in organic form
and enslaved by mind
is the cage it’s in
as we chose
and yet
always free
upon dissolving
intent birthing desire
attachment begetting fear
flowing instead of stagnating
in dynamic stillness, ever in renewal...

the impulse of love
in whatever form
arising within
from source
observe
how it plays
shifts colouration
as contoured by ego

without any negation
we see conditioning
mitigate the elixir
of magnetism 
that heals
so we pause
cause of stupor
animating moments
with pristine uniqueness 

receptive to the offering...

The porcelain empyreal
Blended itself
Like a bride
In the palette of
Amber blush.
It contoured it's
Cheek bones of mounts
With liquid onyx,
With ruby mascara
It mascaraed it's lashed rays
That curled down
On the waterline of its eyes,
And with the orange veil
It cloaked & hid it's
Shy face covering and
Containing the sky.

With moved words,
long emotions
compensated acts
attentions offered
loves, distributed
 debts contoured,
friendships, contemplated
succor offered
supports maintained
speeches, delivered
silences, reverberated
teachings, followed
lessons, oriented
the possible accomplished
the impossible tried
Mission Accomplished...
it can be said that I lived
 and still live Life... !...

There she was
just a few feet away

Glossed lips
Powdered face
Faux lashes
Contoured cheeks

We locked eyes
then she looked away
cold and distant

Maybe she was
tempting me
to walk in her fire

She was sweet
like sugar

Sugar is what tempts us
pouring upon
our wildest fantasies

Sugar gives us cavities
rots our teeth
our soul
our world

It seems
vanity is
always in style......

Shapes affect our lives in ways
That do not seem to accumulate;
For often we are unaware
How readily shape can stimulate.

He crossed the street unaware
Of spinal curves observed
Of shoulders square of angled chin,
What womankind deserves!

What caught your fancy as you combed
The world for your great lover,
Fittingly mounds, shapely rounds
Beneath the predator’s hover!

THOUGHTS
an insidious truth
this magnetic
attraction
an
accessible charm
engaging
 expressions
of an inner
 construct
agonising
 so interesting
 explicitly
embraced

yet a
paradox
 capable
of curating
exaggerated
 images
a
 divinity.
 of transformation
of innate qualities,
in an  artifice
of authentic
choices
 contoured
& involved
so effortless
 frequently
appearing
 artificial...

Consumed by over importance of identity, the said voidness of imagined emptiness may be found to be contoured by sediments of ego, camouflaged as surrendered stillness. As long as there be size & measure, ego is manifest. As long as there be fear or desire, ego is manifest. As long as there be attachment, ego is manifest.

We dance in a trance
Rhythm beat of innocence
Divine love parlance

I walk the last mile. I don’t know when the destined call 
will come to go to God’s heavenly realm. As my eyes close 
every night, I dedicate my devout flowers and my dedicated 
twilight hours to Him. When I wake up, I thank Him for the 
gracious gift of another new sunny day…
the dark path in light
    fixed destination ordained
         obscure last abode 
contoured divine bay of bliss
disappeared footprints behind

fleck of dust noticed
flicked off our shirt
reflex response

jarring earth life notes
incongruent with harmony
triggers involuntary aversion

within awakened cognition
we seek sacred geometry
as innate pull of our soul

thoughts and sense impulses
wax and wane like yonder moon
beseeching us to seek order in chaos

to this end we shift into silence
contoured by consciousness 
until identity drops away...

She greeted the universe before the sun rose

Blessed but looks of defeat contoured outside physically

She fought and fought in learning how to hold her head higher then a so called addiction

Follow the bear paw prints 
Hear the bear 
Bear hears you

Always knew a place for her with all the greats in all entity awaited

She was blessed to make a change and learn 

On her way to a new addiction

A healthy lifestyle to learn...

Why I chose her
She stood well curved at sight
Or was I wrong?
Should have looked further
For now I know,
I do not love her
Wish curves contoured moral simplicity
Like a dream of reality
For me to clench on, not to let go
Seems ever Perfect
Is there any like my dream?
I hear a deceiving, Yes
Fantasies I mould in patience
A relishing dream
Filled with pain and deceit
Am letting you go
Why I chose her
I do not know, do you?
