Autumn declines and the Lover falls
Heroes die and duty calls
Martyrs are men who have lost it all
fighting senselessly in political brawls

FATE
Who can deny sure fate
That tells upon lost chase
Destiny marks the date
As death declines the pace

*smack* *punch* *kick*
Behind closed doors is what you miss
On the outside, it all seems fine
On the inside, it all declines
But hide or else
You might hear yells
*smack* *punch* *kick

Twinkling,
when even the day
is shrinking,
and the sun declines
in the fold of the mountains,
belches out quietly
the fall flame from
the cornfield,
where the raven
is only
the fingers of a plough.

Humans are weak
But Vampires are strong
Strength of Vamps declines
Without humans blood
Let's trade blood for energy
We all need to survive
Vampires do all the works
Humans rest to feed

So many boys just cannot stand carrots
Orange veggie sticks for them have no merit
But as their eyesight declines
Their taste buds get more refined
Orange eye candy's sweet ~ They can stare at it

Intellectual hygiene…
the Poet declines
That dull antiseptic,
that deadens your mind
Once washed and then scrubbed,
the truth a charade
Academic consensus
—the Muse in her grave

Like wine,
these older days
are vintage
Aging,
as each days number
declines
Ripe
in the tannin
of what remains
Rich
in the sweetness
of time now past
The vines
to wither
—in memory lost

A dipping wand for liquid myrhh
from rusted locks will quickly turn
and fragrant franckincense dissolves
my solitude into applause.
A shepherd's reverie declines
and draws his heart up next to mine.
For humble is my soul a'laden
and sweet I be, this swarthy maiden.

I do not know?
I will doff my ermine gown
and take off my kingly crown.
The day declines, the course is run,
on fleece of gold reclines the sun.
I'll not retouche the Mona Lisa
or straighten up the Tower of Pisa.
Further work in that connection
I leave to those who seek perfection.

I studied your vital signs
as time was in question,
clinging to undulating lines.
I studied your vital signs,
emotions mirroring their declines,
desperate for a receptive expression.
I studied your vital signs
as time was in question.

Prices rise, incomes fall
Terrorism reigns, nuclear pall
Health care declines, rich people dine
War everywhere, machine guns whine
What happened to ‘peace and love’
When did the vulture devour the dove
Where did ‘post-20th century’ go
~ but human nature never grows

Shall I compare thee to a winter’s night?
Thou art less lovely and less temperate.
Harsh winds do stir thee quite a bite.
And winter’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of hell shines,
And often is her dark heart dimmed;
And every year from year that declines,
By luck, or fire’s blazing course untrimmed.

I can not say the way I feel
Too unraveled, too unreal
I seem a range
Of contorted and strange
Jagged, the horizon lies
Untying the stars and skies
Moon and sun, between them keep
Heavy hours of uncaught sleep
Madness moves in lacy gray
Where coy slumber declines to stay
Mumbled noises seek amends
As the feathered weight descends

Let each a breath
Command them well
For the sun that doesn’t shine
When the doctor falls to his dear death
And the birds that fly with time
In their feathers there's a love
In the heart of a dove,
That dove resigns
And a mother declines,
Her child’s breast
And the earth that's dressed
Brings that baby to its rest
Divine our love, our love divine

Creative Writings
Self doubt declines.
This is your season of change.
Be open minded.
Not pessimistic.
Learn to grow.
Sometimes pencil to error.
Keep on writing.
Keep on brainstorming.
Through creative writings.
Creative thinking.
Black ink flows through blank spaces.
Rhythms to azure rhymes.
Poetry am I.
Publish your own remarkable life.

Who on God reclines
Worldly offers declines:
To the scripture inclines
Noting the sharp lines
Between Gods and gods;
Though both sides wield rods;
From worshipers nods:
The latter mere pods,
Things to smoke like cods
Or just kick with leg
And refuse to beg...
Who an God reclines
Only dines and wines
From Lord God's rich mines...
This, forever, signs

.
here in the temple's twilight when worn phrases seem transparent
and the songs of life we meant to share had not been understood
the sun declines all explanation, and there's little left to say

E-arly Wednesday September sixth,
R-ise of the beacon begins;
L-ight above the horizon
I-s showing the mankind's sins.
N-ow that the end is near,
D-isregard not the signs,
A-llow your heart to fear the Lord, for the whole world declines.
E-arnestly pray to God,
L-ife's in peril neath the sun;
N-ow that there's nowhere to hide,
A-s there's nowhere to
R-un.

You are the Song
I want to hear when the sun declines,
Laying on my bed at the dead of the night,
seizing the moment.
You are the lyrics I want to wake up to,
at the ceasing of the dusk.
The Author must have written you from the inmost heart,
Inspired by the stars and the silent moon.
Your sound is so magical,
I'm hearing the birds singing along.
It's a bright new day.

“Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May.”
Sonnet 18: Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
BY WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
Waiting for the dentist’s assessment of my implant screw.
I watch Dogwood buds on dry branches rattle on the window pane.
Why did Shakespeare’s quote pop into my head right then?
while wondering if the bone graft grew,
‘every fair from fair sometime declines.’

Thrown a lifeline
To pull us ashore
Arrogance declines
The ego scores
Water near freezing
Not quite yet ice
Latent heat transforming
Matter in a trice
Eons of conditioning
Buried in the subconscious
Gurus grace uplifting
Makes ascension instantaneous
Mere recognition not freedom
It simply plots trajectory
To enter into a Gods kingdom
We need to rewrite our story
Dare we?
