Premium Member Silent Scream

Silent scream ~
the demarcation,
the moment 
between 
reality and insanity,
the moment
life flashes
into a chaotic
mess,
and your name 
is riding 
the tsunami.


Premium Member Occasional Puffs of Wind

Green patches
of lawn
surrounded by
flurries of leaves
demarcation lines
peace zones
Occasional puffs of wind
light, easy, unhurried
scatter a few stragglers --
swept along
a couple or three meters
then still
at rest again
they await last rites...

Premium Member The Immortals' Land

On the peaks of the snow-covered mountains of age

Just under the demarcation of eternity’s line, I stand

Hoping, some snowflakes of wisdom still to harvest

Before starting my crossing, into the immortals’ land!

Premium Member Under the Summit

Now that,

Under age's snow-covered summit 

I stand,

Just 

Under eternity's demarcation line,

I still hope, 

A few snowflakes of wisdom to harvest

Before 

The moment, my soul's soaring comes,

Obeying

To the Lord's celestial command!

The Uneasy Truce

Assaulted by man and machine,
Intertwining branches of pristine woods
Form a brave barrier.

A paved path,
Line of demarcation,
Divides Nature from civilization.

The truce is uneasy;
The detritus of man
Encroaches upon the boundary.

Thus man defiles the very sanctuary
He spiritually needs,
Diminishing himself in the eyes of the gods.


Wade Across

wade across this dammed up stream
bring across your love for me
erase the lines of demarcation
invisible walls of separation

step across, circle back
feel the breeze, regulate tack
how do you know unless you do
feed the heart, hungry for you

lay me down and cover me
with your heart, blanket me
here, amongst the flowers strewn
wrap me in your love cocoon

Demarcation Lines

Advancing purlieu dawns on growing up;
the outskirts of our lives will change o'er time. 
Unwanted confines normalize our lives
as we accept each demarcation line.

Distinctions

On the surface the town appears
Like any town, perhaps your own;
It has its share of low-cost homes
Segregated from the splendid
Houses by an invisible
Well defined demarcation line.
The inferior homeowners
Dine out when they can afford to
At fast food places like Wendy’s;
Whereas the well-to-do- frequent
Eateries with French sounding names;
You can distinguish these people
From the rest of us by their dogs:
They’re the prissy pooches with bows.
