Blue eyes,
laughing,
hands;
unkindly the memories pile together.
Severs of the heart shied away
kissing at their enclosure.
The
Self
Appears as a
Bundle of
Memories and
Hopes and the
Seeming
Enclosure of these
In a human form
Making
Us us...
This princely lion called Lennie
In the zoo pub he had one too many
He awoke to exposure
Being in the wrong enclosure
Cuddling a princess lioness called Jennie
briefly butterfly
set free from its enclosure
quietude of wings
glorious rainbow flutters
under the green Summer leaves

Cloud of dreams, rushing past, here spun
Clocks tick, time running out, soaring
In hot enclosure of the sun
Sitting in a chair, reclining
My soul enjoying the vision
In his shirt of bright yellow nylon,
Nicky hung, with his curious eye on
A pool he bent over,
Cool water enclosure
Still, he's well-dressed with his smile on.
This sweet enclosure holds me tight as key
its called my heart, a chamber locked for thee
the love you gave
I now do crave
you once lived here, but now you're free
Cloud of dreams, rushing past, spiraling
Clocks ticking, time running out, soaring
Sitting in patriarch chair, reclining
In blanket enclosure, thinking, dreaming
Old Father Time, paradise waiting
Like a stack of overdue books
I can never finish with you
You are the designer of a love matrix
Sweetly you spread a net invisible
I am just a june bug crawling in a spider web
entangled for life.
In enclosure
She weaves magic spell
Throughout what she endures
Hidden, cackling a laugh
Cursing the townsfolk
She does procure

lose usual fear...
hypnotized by their hugh size...
their striking colors...
slither- slow- entwine...
hissing in the enclosure…
snake charm dance at zoo...
press face to the glass…
so thankful not in my grass…
they bite in a flash…

I am confined in four walls in summer afternoons.
I am desperate to go out but
the encroaching heat halts me.
Now, I can understand,
the wiggling and plight of an innocent bird ,
who wants to conquer the sky,
but forced to an enclosure.
Happy Environment Day!!

The wheels of time frozen, the vines intrude
weathered enclosure whispering tales of yore
resplendent in the setting sun, a majestic edifice

Outside the tiger enclosure are we two,
Oh!! said my son “but where is Winnie the pooh?”

You are the beautiful antique room,
half-open, decayed by light and familiar gazes.
Lace curtained windows, like eyes that see only the past,
you offer wistful, paltry promises of enclosure,
but as the wind whispers through the cracks in your walls,
you are too cold to offer life.
They
cut up
the common,
enclosed the heath
and
made
the land
all their own-
putting to the
plough-
once
freemen,
then wage slaves-
as a pauper
lie.

You clasp me squirming
Like desire kissing apples
Of secret passion
Making my face summer dawn
In your hard earned enclosure
Never say never
It could happen
It could not
Committed to
Non-commitment
Vocalizations stuck on
Silence
It's enticing?
It's inciting
Riots
Put your President
Behind bars
Unlocked my cage
Set me free
Free to roam
In the predator's enclosure
Your enticements are incitements
Coupled, they brave the storm
and critical exposure
forced by the storm to form
a perilous enclosure.
Under its salvo, they
press shivering shapes together
to limit the foray
of such unholy weather.
Embedded thus, they dare defy
the higher forces. Yet
his chivalry is impotent.
For nature soaks her wet.
Enclosure of the Moon
capturing cosmic glass;
The stars swirl around it;
An abysmal swallow;
Dreams drawn like a magnet;
Enclosure of the Moon,
transmissible panache;
Tumbleweeds on the wind
so the dark sky shimmers;
Taking everything in;
Enclosure of the Moon
reveries wrap around
with a fiery whimper;
Hoping a wish will catch
celestial tinder.
Tears are knocking at my eyes door
shut tight more and more
The knock is now harder, stronger
I can't deny them access anylonger
I will open and flood
the world with tears of blood
I'm quarantined in dark cubicle
Turning around in mighty circles
Lovely birds singing
Nice bells ringing
Beautiful butterflies swarming
Smiling sun warming
Outside my enclosure
All of these pleasures
sour to my dying senses
There is a forgotten cabin
that stands by the sea,
Old and dilapidating,
Its former years I still remember,
Happiness dwelt within its walls,
Joyful tunes emanated from its enclosure,
A summer home,
A vacation abode,
Its walls glittered under the sun’s rays,
Abandoned and deserted,
It stands alone and grey,
No more pleasure to them,
They had gone and never came back,
It stands in a forlorn hope.

Proof that an indivisible portion of time exists,
Frozen in that time, unchanging,
Morphed into the metamorphic rock, forever,
Hacked, packed, moved,
masoned into walls of a ritualistic enclosure
I can drink on them for hours,
Look into their eyes,
Isolated, purified, distilled to 175° proof,
One expression, one thought, one pain,
...maybe that is why I can see them
Or maybe I just spend too much time in that room
In a way, each of us is a house, a temporary abode for spirit, subject to age – needing maintenance and sometimes an entire renovation. I examine the walls of me...the entrance and exit of both chill and warmth through the inevitable cracking. The chipping and peeling – the drying-out between eternities. My next domicile, I want all on one airy level – having found, fullness and height are less directions, and more the surrendering of enclosure.
the malagasy giant jumping rats
look at me as if
to tell me it'll be alright in
the end
but i try to ditch the family
and run off to the insect house
overhear a family wanting a refund because
the aquarium has no octopus
there's no banter
in the primate enclosure
the ape looks frightfully annoyed
and i'm trying to get me mate
into dressing gowns
willing to dead name once
a week
the family find me
amongst the anteaters
