Nothing Works

A brown out, full  blown
Voltage fluctuates, quieting my tone
Fed up, no longer distracted
Am fully ready to be contracted

One Perfect Limerick - Part 2

A poor lad contracted  VD
He cannot infect you or me
This lad wasn’t so thick
Tied a bow round his dick
But it isn't easy to pee!

Atishoo

At Christmas I contracted the flu
From taking the kids to the zoo
The hippos were a wheezing 
Ten monkeys were sneezing 
Now my temperature’s a hundred and two!

Zen mode

plans thwarted
it is a routine life test
an opportunity to check
is heart contracted 
or yet tranquil

God has designed
earth life so perfectly
optimised for soul growth
as we gentle responses
breath by breath thus

Firm In Pain

My life was found in pain 
I was ransomed for a pen

Never will I permit my soul to ache 
I won't construct  the same mistake
 
I was throbbing everyday
My grief was unheard anyway

Now I will stand compacted 
My aplomb will be contracted

Some Thoughts

God believes in term limits – 
no surprise, Congress does not;

The soul responds immediately
to truth – while policy requires
endless debating...

Good needs no rehearsing – 
unlike evil, always heavily
scripted and eternally 
contracted....

Feeling Seasick

I'm going through the motions whilst surfing in the sea Now I’ve contracted typhoid, oh deary deary me! Raw sewage pumped into the sea really is outrageous Typhoid is a horrid disease and sadly it's contagious 02~07~17

Energies

Energies

Boundless and contracting..

Apparently most of us

Live the contracting

Fearing the Boundless:

The energy we Are..

The contracted matrix

Brings pleasures..coupled

With a nagging pull..

The pull is the Boundless

Call from Home...

His Bona Fides Unstained

Mr. John Kerry is not to blame
As he prattles on about climate change --

   "Much more important!" he warns, "than Ukraine"
    Thus keeping his woke bona fides unstained --

          Forgetting his hat out in the rain
          JK contracted water on the brain

Creative Creation

Zygote ideas crowd cobwebbed thoughts.
Foetal creations evolving...
Yearning for life.
Crammed in empty wombs
Contracted by phantom possibilities 
Gatekeepers to life
Aborted hopes and dreams
Fear laced life blood...
trickles away with the sands of time...
Again.

I Think My Computer Has a Virus

I noted with alarm that my computer was 'MADE IN CHINA', in the Orient!

Up until a week or so ago, with its operation I was quite content.

But for the past few days its performance has been less than desirous.

Ach!  Could it be that it has contracted the dreaded coronavirus?

Overcoming Tamas

Of Gunas three, Tamas holds sway,
cajoling consciousness to rest,
though the child in us wants to play,
of zest and zeal we’re dispossessed.

Heart contracted and soul’s stance stooped,
we have been by lethargy duped,
yet like the Phoenix we may rise,
embracing each breath in surprise.

An Architect of Human Form

inner energy 
           of life
conceived crafted
             contracted

 expressed&captured
 in perpetuity

  meditation as emotion
       communicated 
in bronze marble
       clay &plaster 

 a colossal 
   gifted 
 with 
resonance revealed

 in gestures
       of greatness

Stoop To Conquer

Desperation
overcoming fear
momentarily

Degree of difficulty
day by day rising
continuously 

Feeling contracted 
by circumstances 
we agitate

Finding no peace
in the outer world
we meditate 

We are still 
yet all the doing
is yet done

We feel a calm
spacial & tranquil 
with God one

The Forgiveness of Jesus-

He was a dirty no account sinner Despise by the public a recluse beginner Embalmed in his filthiness Contracted in his guilt Who is he to compromise And why must he be forgiven For he must we all must trust in the redeeming grace the forgiveness of Jesus

Baptism

As the hardness of the ice runs smooth,
my inner body begins to move.
The concrete beliefs shutter
into a divine melody.
A once contracted monotone
is now in a polyphonic harmony.
Cracking and releasing 
Truth runs clear,
passing in waves and flipping streams.
All is one in this fluid dream.
A love song and a bath,
no longer any wrath.

Birth Rite

“BIRTH RITE” 


Destiny                     or? 
A genetic trap. 
Brought up to be 
Reflections of 
Absent fathers 
Insane mothers 
Raised into addictions 
That feed off each other 
Family contracted infliction 
Damned                    sick 
          Healing never

Symbolism

d ,the symbolism is insecure with revolution factors and to develop a concrete slate in the room for requisitioning the stream of difference and to allow the best turn  to be contracted to sting a revolving star around the moon.

It so sad to let her go in the ways of how tomorrow comes but she led a life of misery and denial.

Withering Warning

clumsy coal complaining
smothered syllables scrunching
dripping damped draws
feigning fostered flaw
hoisted hood hankering
contracted callous smithereens

on fallible fate
was remonstration raised
taunted tactically trace

daedal diamond sermonizing;
"Dear, make sprees
stanced like fig

etch felon fear
then trade tiers."

Hoggish Hypnotism

Hideous hank hoisted
smoothened scrunched sculpted 
tactic turn twisting 
scared surges skipping 
smithereens into span
contracted turbulent trance

vile vibed passion
inflected per punctures 
birthed by seizures

damped draws drooping 
growling gaunt gaiety 
lanky lust lurching 

ensconced eyes envisaged
weary lids wakes.

The Sword of Words

We tend to get lost in words – 
definitions; often words being
stretched or contracted
in accordance with personal
beliefs and intentions--predilections....

Take Nationalism,
in a sense, not conducive to
world harmony – take Christianity,
belief and abidance in Christ

in a sense, a form of Nationalism

fall upon spirit...and not the sword
of words –
