Premium Member Guilty As Charged

Never doubt the availability When looking for culpability The guilty never wish to admit They are, indeed, the culprit.

Premium Member Poet On the Brink

denial of culpability
relationships gone
love forsaken
sit and write
endless words
anger unleashed
forgiveness begged
abstract concepts
random rants
filling space
why?
does anyone care?

Fools Rush In

Anticipation
It invalidates
Delivers total
Culpability
Causing mind vagueness.

Expectancy 
It destroy facts
Drags out agony
Uncertainties.

Eagerness
Fools rush in
Famished hope.

Belief
Fickle

Hope

Premium Member The Power of the Tongue

Life and Death, they be
  in the power of the Tongue
The unfortunate hung
  others' praises sung

Best to skirt culpability
  by cultivating agreeability ~ 
If you have nothing nice to say
  do not say anything at all

Culpability

Lovers write loves name on friendly trees
Your name was everywhere
I even wrote it in the sand
The rock was too hard
I left it bare
I built too my castle there
Where now at your footprint I stand and stare
Longing to blame the waves

The Sun Cant Shine

Plastic Alice
through the looking glass
Her daughters have Pans merriment
Hungry for the here and now
Culpability over reality
They are non traditionalists
Parking on yellow lines 
Forever disobedient
The Sun can't shine
forever lacklustre
is their main amusement

Shipwrecked in a sea of Delusions

Love
Not felt, nor seen
Lost….
Forgotten, lost to the waves
Waves of hurt, bobbing away
Locked, in prisons of their own making
Cut off from the shore
Shores not seen a while, marooned
Till the rocks of culpability, to break
To open a heart, shipwrecked
Shipwrecked in a sea of delusions
Shipwrecked in a sea of angst

View

A view is an antic of peaking surplantage, 
   of a particulated particular-
      vantage of window dressing the addressing of 
        undressing, show, nark of culpability.
                   Causing a scene, perception slanted
      with ideal synoptical instantainables processing implanted proof that is nosey and wants to know, 
               what it is, to see.

Culpability

Adept in riling.
You cannot chew the thoughts.
There was no mandible.

This double-edged 
cutlass. The curvy contour 
brings you to a hole. You 
spray a defoliant to 
denude the trees.

Naivete.
Who was competent enough 
to disconnect the sparring 
bulls. Disingenuous, you
were not interested to –

design a stillness as a
requiem for the trailing dazzlers.

English Hill

Come with me to St Matthews cemetery
a flock of culpability
What are red faces for ?
The incidence of pious Rosetta
At the graves edge
he was returned
An avalanche of prayers
omits forgiveness 
A life unworthily lived
unmatching the reverend 

The bats resume their business
The uneasiness of the pews
Feathers are the sinews of hope
Their curved plumage
thinks well of an English Hill

In The Abstract

Some never find wrongdoing in one of their own no matter the proof shown or how many whistles are blown they circle the wagons close ranks deny any and all culpability then compound the issue by defending duplicity with verbal hostility but Detective Inspector Quasimodo could solve a crime before lunch he'd secure the scene collect clues examine the evidence and would bust the culprit just on a hunch

Altitude

What can the light give us?

The faith to start

The courage to impart

The clarity to define

The energy to realign

The power to discover

The wisdom to uncover

The vision to seek

The strength to keep

The curiosity to inspect

The culpability to resurrect

The discretion to know

The motivation to grow

The passion to reveal

The permission to heal

What can the light give us?

Infinite altitude

In Abeyance

Take my body for sail,
my wings to fly.
I am trying to find out
the meaning of a drop.

The point man was taking aim.
There was no culpability.
I asked, what was the need to
know the verdict of a rape ?

The bed always suffers. The secret
of a muse overturns a disaster.
In insane sky a beleaguered moon
was taking a shower.

Unmasked, the desire turns to
fire and ignites the palace.
It was not enough to meet death
with empty hands.

Loss

Something sinister tells
In dark deeds that around us swell
And spell a presence drear
Demons festering the air
Men have grown cold
And callous is the norm
Of our times
And we shrink from it in fear
Without anger to say
What is being lost is dear
Is this silence
A sign of some culpability
Somthing about human vulnerability
We cannot confess again
Despite the hell of private pain
Is this the holy spirit leaving
And we so busy
Do not know
Cannot know

Blindsided/Dumbfounded

Moments of numbness, replaced by a blast.
Icy cold fingers grip my chest - I gasp.

It's heat of summer; No wind in sight.
Just icy coldness of things not right.

No words can form; No thoughts set upright.
All is a jumble; My throat is knot tight.

Nothing can free; Culpability.
Denigrates dignity; Evil agrees.

No way to erase, fathom - explain.
How to go forward - enshrouding such pain.

Loss of all focus; Struggling to gain
Release from coldness; Icy coldness and pain.
