Going down in flames
my body/mind
once alight with ephemral fire
is expunged by the buckets of sadness thrown this way
my sadness
a hidden
chasm
extending in a spiral manner
is all consuming

I do not know?
Falling stars can fall unseen,
their descent defaced
by brilliant beams of sunlight;
expunged and erased.
And yet, come nighttime,
meteors outshine the stars,
their demise sublime.

Rhyme
O, he’d expunged all that eons ago
propelled toward rare opportunities
Slighted, the warm glow
of the flame from the hearth of his youth
~ the heritage latent tears would dispute

A wandering wind
whispered a tune
caressing our skin
with the softness of June
November's bluster expunged
as into loving arms we plunged
Two lingering leaves swept along
by mid-summer's dream-song

Footsteps
Trod in sands
Lines
Drawn by childrens’ hands
Smoothed by onshore winds
To exist
Though briefly
To be expunged
By rolling seas
To leave a canvas ready
For lines
Drawn by chuldrens’ hands
And footsteps
Trod in sands

Past dweller healed by time
Second hand ticked, curse expunged
A fellow, awaits on twelve
As arrived, nightmare has fallen
“Only through time, time is conquered”
-T. S. Eliot-

I do not know?
Lunged and Plunged
Sin of much temptation again luridly lunged;
Be careful or deep in debt will have plunged;
Errors made,
In stock trade;
Records of my stupidity then were expunged.
Jim Horn
Can you imagine if all stocks that espoused
sin were in their own stock marker so we
would not be tempted by them.

Limerick
In the wards of the state
Custody is gruesome
We breathe and speak our constraints
Looming from hallway rumors
I am the hawk in the clock
Shaking hands with fate
Existing in between discretion
Charged with numbers
Time is the shock of stillness
We foam with desire
And wrench our poison pens
They train us like fire dogs
A hazard to be expunged

When my Mother was killed?
Like a cockroach;
Schotched
She was butchered
Her name erased
From the book of life; expunged
Leaving us unaided
Orphaned
Disregarded, by people
Nobody pays heed
From dust we feed
Swimming in poverty
Famine attacks
Our life, full of strife
As we see her grave
Calling God to save
Our massacred Mother.

Narrative
a storm is brewing
dark hordes bristling to descend
dissenting thunder
coalescent scouts
in tentative teams essay
sun-parched earth awaits
sizzle of drizzle
pheremonal petrichor
harbingers of hope
cool breeze in the air
their work done, drops sponged, expunged
the deluge follows

Each push of the deal/draw button
brings another false hope.
What do you see on the screen?
Four cards of the same suit.
Hoping for a flush,
the odd card is expunged.
What do you get next?
Any type of card you don’t need.
It’s always one card from glory.
Each new bet is a try in vain.
You don’t want to walk away,
even though a voice inside says yes.
That big win may be next.
Yet again, there’s another false hope.

‘et je l'ai regardée expirer tant de fois’
and I watched her expire so many times
when bound by phantoms
at realities edge
take not a shallow breath
but inhale each others
tangled prayers
melded bodies, melted minds
where a heartbeat crashes
to drum upon heavens door
and anarchy reigns
with expunged cries
in loss is found escape
when reality slips
and space between time
feels like death

So involved is my soul
Involved inside my heart
There’s light places that has expunged
The dark, the dark and blackness
Fades with a drop
A drop of light
I stand at all
As I walk in the parade
Of the beam of light
In sight
I am
More than
I am
I am energy unite
Ignite it
Flame I am
More than human
Being I am
A light and vessel
I shine
I am the embodiment
Living energy I am
A light from Elohim

Energy unite it flame I am
More than human being I am
A light and blessed l shine
