only plainly questioning reasons some things understanding vile wrong-doing xanax yields

REGRET
Resentment
Exacting its toll
Gouging the senses
Reexamining the
Endless agony of
Tomorrow’s yesterdays.

She whimpers and whirs
She banters and she b****es
Tired of my abuse
She’s exacting her revenge
This may be my last message…
Look! She just censored my second line!

Too many good thoughts
so many bad poems
The bridge to forever
exacting its toll
Too many to count
just one to remember
As beauty releases

Always bore condemnation,
but couldn't deviate.
Circumvention dared erupt
Dad's exacting force.
We both were very stubborn.

Broken bones, black and blue, bumps and bruises
Conniving, consticting, concealing, convincing
Demented, deplorable, disgusting, distrusting
Expendable, expensive, exasperating, exacting
I am so used to being mistreated, used and abused

Elongated elusive elephant-like Edison expected ectoplasm
Extrasensory efforts of exacting Ellis effortlessly eludes evildoers
Exasperating empathetic eel and elusive ethereal enigma

Backlit in life’s shadows –
the exacting burden of responsibilities –
you are lost.
Bathed in light amongst shadows
of trials and tribulations that
internal hope defrosts;
one can but surmise
your inner strength,
as the light bends to reveal the cost.

Exacting feverous,
Gratifying harmonious
Idyllic Jazz.
Kings, Lords, make noble
Obeisance portraying

Some, tendering
Unqualified verity, when
Exuberant youth
Zonked!

Take these thoughts within your mind.
One should know what suffering is.
Realizing if you are questioning the act,
Then it must be cruelty in some form.
Universally if it causes suffering at all,
Reality is that the act must be torment.
Exacting the realization, this act is, Torture

Fallacy....inappropriate fantasy
Fantasy.....anticipated reality
Reality.....imaginative stability
Stability.....exacting security
Security....forfeiture from fallacy......
Vain glory be hi-story......infamy be thy shame
baneful flourish from ruse historic,
enemies created to blame......

Laissez-faire is the attitude I wear
For worrisome things I don’t give a care
Government may concern another
I’m not running, neither is my brother.
Some people are exacting and stern
From these peasants I prefer not to learn
You do it your way, I’ll do it mine
Then the world can get along totally fine

September’s serendipitous serenade
Evokes the ebullience of ecstasy
Provokes a prancing promenade
Tingeing the torrid leaf tips
Exacting an elemental excitements
Monumental majesty
Blue-black horizons blending
Exotically enigmatic exigencies
Ruby reds rollicking in the Rockies

The sadness is amazing:
How wide its shores,
How long its darkness,
How high its' cries-
How it engulfs me,
Pins me to the board,
How exacting its' target.
Then
How right is its moor,
Tied to the dock,
Settling,
No longer breathing,
Just staying
In its white and gray waves,
Just bobbing, sloshing,
Staying.

He thundered the ivory
Defacing the melody
Lost deep within himself
He focused upon exacting
Icy surgical anguish
His digits stressing past
Mutilated bodies
Of tortured quarry
As silence fell
He inhaled his victory
Jubilant in his bloodbath
Those gathered celebrated
Calling for revelry
Praising the executioner

Once
Back in time
A life or two
There lived a loving soul
The words he’d rhyme
Where meant for you
To know when you were old
And in this generation
I find in veneration
Sweet exacting finite truth
Repeating to extol
Youth’s swiftly dancing role
In this road there is a toll
And the travel makes you whole
Again

Fierce am I, and fearless
Challenging the shades of winter
Taunting its dreaded demise
Mocking the shadow's prognostication
Tickling the timid hearts
Of somnambulant lovers
Arising to a chilling challenge
I stand the guardian of March’s madness
Exacting a toll on all who pass
For I am February
And I hold no heart
But yours

Take madness to good use
dawn of abilities tasty juice
threads of sympathies intension
possessions and its self-assertion
to reach the beloved in vain
and love itself as gain
loading the heart of another
subtle pain and dust cover
love that is a exacting pled
self-assertive reasons dead
living means to hope survive
hoping means to live

Ballade
Immersion in a regal
carnage. Ash colored dawn
was gang-raped.
A bullet-ridden sexism
shuts out the fame.
Starts a chilling confession.
O, my orion
I adore your ruffled
stance. Do not make a kill.
Sunflower, why your
seeds were participating
in bonfire of a moon ?
They came for a sexual
encounter. But found a prism
exacting a gun.

The days of May were wrapped around my finger.
Love settled in as though it meant to stay,
Exacting joy as if pressed through a wringer.
The days of May.
In June and July love went a bit astray,
Living as a strolling minstrel singer.
Gone was the sweet contentment of our May.
Then as the cold winter days would linger
Love sought the warmth of that sweet early day
Before it tried that reckless time as swinger.
The days of May.

Verse
He wrote four lines of poetry
before retiring to his bed
falling off to sleep instantly.
His subconscious was unperturbed
from any indigestibles
eaten earlier while writing.
His dreams were clear, limitable,
inimitable, exacting
like the four lines of poetry
he had meticulously wrote.
Upon wakening, his psyche
through these dreams began to take note
of the images that hit home
and found the words for his poem.

Verse
Contractions will come
Laboring actions are near
Even for life's end
Birth from beginning
Holds no exacting promise
Trial and error
Moving on the path
Silently moving forward
Looking back is hard
Rest is soon needed
Maintaining the stamina
For life's obstacles
Forgiving the past
Requires a steady heart beat
No time for panic
Freedom for being
All that you were meant to be
Is always so close
Time for holding on
Escapes with a little sigh
Letting relief in
