Paradise Despoiled
My lilies, bruised and holey

Their leaves a tattered mess …

Blame the lily-beetles,

Those devils in a red dress....

Premium Member Rondelet: Yang Be Evil
Rondelet: Yang be evil

  for the continuously raped and hidden
     minors of India

Yang be evil
Yin acts with rash impunity 
Yang be evil
No power controls the Devil
Wombs despoiled in mad enmity
Innocence: raped humanity
Yang be evil

(c) T. Wignesan - Paris, 2012...

Loki's Revenge
A demon’s playing
but no one’s listening
Black whirlwind coming
tomorrow hissing

The moment christened
in dark despair
Entrapping vision
beyond repair

A mantra chanting
its rhythm waning
Despoiled virtue
with time refraining

Unmasking Hoder
in blind respite
The god of darkness
—and lost delight

(Dreamsleep: August, 2023)...

Tick, Tick, Tick
Soft and complacent
our youth in denial
What evil disguises
the past has on file

Wishing and hoping
a smokescreen at best
Masking our fear
while fouling our nest

The seeds of our history
whose names have been damned
And mocked until cancelled
our heritage banned

In near distant cauldrons
a pot stirs and boils
Awaiting our downfall
—and all we’ve despoiled

(The New Room: November, 2023)

Mariupol
The city and its steel plant are now "completely liberated" after 531 Ukrainian troops left the site, the Russian defence ministry said.

Completely {
	levelled, depopulated, desolated,
	despoiled, vandalised, looted, pillaged, plundered, 
	devastated, desecrated, ravaged, violated, emptied,
	laid waste, 
	razed to the ground, 
	scorched from the face of the earth, 
	annihilated, obliterated, eliminated. But 
	}
Liberated....

Surrender
Surrender

Surrender to all am and all I’m not
All the memories and those I forgot
Surrender to where I am and the void
Places of beauty and the cruelly despoiled
Surrender to the pace of time and infinity
Moments of peace and those of morbidity
Surrender the mind and the heart
Love, laughter and the mindless blart
Surrender the soul and corrupt flesh
Angel and demon together meshed
Surrender the awareness and the ego
Dreams and chains, we let go
