Luxury & wealth,Jay's scheme
This lover's bower,soon turned sour-
Gatsby quickly lost his cool,
Floating face-down ,in his pool.

Premium Member Looking for an excuse to bake my favourite cake

Zucchini chocolate cake is dreamy.
It melts with decadence in your mouth.
Whose birthday needs a cake?

Premium Member Doom's Date - Mar 5

Doomsday’s dismal dawn, in the deep distance, 
Is our dusk, the diadem of decadence;
Daunting and depthless, a dark and doleful dirge 
Deems this dungeon of demons due for death

IMPULSE #7


Decadence dreams decay
Fiery flames fling foray


Last lazy light lifting
Odd ocean oomph oozing

In proportion to His love,
Is the decadence displayed
In the place He has prepared
For you one glorious day.

Prepared just for you."

Always pondering over trifles,
Ceasing to react well in time,
Our decadence is written on our faces,
Review as a critique is the need of hour,
Never place political libertine higher to humanity!

Xenophobia Empowers the Weak

Auditory dementia envelops upon a grandeur scale. Skepticism dilutes the 
experience, painting an abyss of soul in-cognizant. Xenophobia empowers the weak, 
imploring a dissonant decadence awaiting.

City Blues

Veins of anger surge through the city, pulsing into a raging flow
Screams of decadence and stubborn pity fall like arrows of scorn
Inheriting failure and pursuing stupidity...... is that all we know?

Fragment of Truth

(for George Ehusani)

When minority
Threatens majority;
Self-solidarity
Divorces reality,
These in a community
Depict dilapidation of the society
And decadence of integrity
Of humanity
In every country!

The Heaven Reaching Trees

The Clouds where once my leaves of white decadence,
Now they are but gone, scattered by the wind.
As the sun ever withering, decays,
These heaven reaching trees, which stems from the crimson soil,
That is my heart.

Our Decadence

our hands are extremely
creative
they believe that everything
has the right to exist
like the proliferation
of good and bad
dusts in the air
our science
our arts
our technology
have made a little boon
but a lot of bane

our decadence

Silence

Cross starred-
sitting right across,
pure decadence of silence.

Passion flared-
Love aired-
What joy in thee.

Soft movement,
creaking floor,
random burst-

D---

Oh why?

Silence abound-

Love aired.

Smiles all around.

Just in time for annal's first
Anthem of recovery from decadence
Nonsense summer shed, duty toes
Unencumbered line forward, pale impaled
Arctic abyss shrouds frozen flame
Regrets only as almost good intentions
Yields to hibernation of resolve.

Life's Betrayal

Unless
I join you
in your decadence
we have no real connection
As Kirouac
you mirror
and Burroughs
you acclaim
In self
abuse
you wander
in dread of every mirror
True dilettante
of life’s betrayal
in squalor  
— where you hide

The Storm

I hear the chilling wind in the tear stained window to my heart
The decadence of the storm clouds is haunting me
I pray for calamity to pass but
Darker and Darker the clouds become until I am  engulfed in darkness
My sight has left me
I cannot see the twister on the horizon

Decadence

A country's decadence starts with the nation's language decay
When citizens speak in curses with malevolent words they say

For words can spread its Darkness and in power materialize
Into Reality and effect a nation's inevitable demise.

Taped Thimbles To His Fingers

Amestecul his name Spiral Tantu
Who wishes my fiance as his wife
Wast makes her stall to marry me.
Her name Allus, she cursed me in
the detail of there romance. She is
nepasator and unkind. I often wait
for the translation of these details,
oh God am I fool? Am I a fool!

Lamentation

LAMENTATION(A Quintain)

When my memory goes to work,I feel lost and down,
For oppression and poverty which many result to fate,
In abundance,few usurp power and so many suffer these I frown,
Corruption,theft,moral decadence multiply at a faster rate,
Oh!Mother nature,Good and bad;how can both mate?
sad

Electrocyst

some electrons have been here
since the beginning of time
electrons prove their reality
by making "Big Bang Theory" intelligible
by turning a subatomic nebula
into Sheldon Cooper's face
locked in Hare Krishna trance
living room of decadence
sinking into deep abyss
as our skill in physics soars
