Short Emblazed Poems

Carving the antennai
watch the carved butterfly
touch and felt
by bored passing students
forced summer drive
Its glory emblazed
on a plastic label
Cabbage white model

July unfolds magenta-colored skies

and launches blasts of pinks emblazed with gold-

exploding artistry that causes sighs-

as sunsets fashion fireworks to behold.

Suddenly she is there,
her young face in the hurrying crowd.

I spin into a forty year old whirlpool
recall how we were
and how time has tested us both.

There she is

CLARITY

crystal clear blues
emblazed
across thought of
Eternal sun
sparkling dark hues
encompass all
one by one
veins rerun
undone

small tender volumes
like tears that melt 
glass
my throat rolls the wine
a harsh acidic
farce
kissing life
between
elusive and vague
shafts

worlds growing
apart
strangling the
clarity of a 
lucid
finite

The instigator relates, we cheer.
Deflates nay Sayers
The instigator retraced all fears
Detest all stares
The instigator dissects dialect
The instigator obliges his faith
What phase? The instigator 
Emblazed freeze gaze.
Counsels full LAWS.
Legal eagle at the cause.
The instigator  has
 FAME No game.
The instigator takes flight 
Ignites surprise
Do fly red eye
Nice GUY  GOOD GUY

GOOD BYE...
