Like stars,
Are extinguished

The sun of knowledge
Shines!

as rain extinguished embers
of the long day's city heat
blurred traffic light reflections
painted puddles on the street.

the other side, YOU LIE ...

the Truth will be extinguished

When Elvis looked like a balloon
It seemed he would pop very soon
He took many pills
To conquer his ills
But the "cure" extinguished his croon

the moth beats its wings
frantically
now elevating
now lowering
apocalyptically...
the candle extinguished
what was that
all about

Embers extinguished
Spiritual fire remains
Wind catches the remnants
Never to be fully brought back
Allow thyself to prosper
Or thou shall never be free

The tongue of scorn
Set a fire
Burning endless miles
Extinguished only by an apology
A heartfelt truth
And I am
Truly sorry

in the dark before dawn
an alert,sure and certain
a light,perpetual..perhaps

YOUR EYES
The sun turns pale
The moon loses its brightness
The stars are extinguished
Before the splendor of your
Eyes!

Is she a zombie...
Her eyes are vacant; her heart's
fire extinguished, brittle ash
Hush! She approaches
expressionless, gliding through
a different dimension

Enabling light
Still, burning bright
This heart
Shall not
Be extinguished
Oh, sweet lamp
We hold
You up
To this
Dark night
This heart
Is a lamp
To see
The world

Deep scent of ennui
touches the young
who refuse to see
the beauty around them.
Time reined in the Muses,
put out the flame of the bards,
and extinguished awe of science.

(I Was) Just Another Flame
I needed a friend
Someone close to rely on
But i became more
Entwined in burning embers
Till you extinguished your love.

The dawn of true liberation
Is the timeless moment
When the delusion of duality
Has been completely extinguished.
And then?
Whatever the next moment brings.

Indented by harsh waves
Injured by cold sharp rocks
Inflicted by failures
Irate at injustice
I come to you naked
Indolent, extinguished
Illuminate me Lord

The sun turns pale,
The moon loses its brightness,
And the stars are extinguished
Before
The splendor of a blessed soul!

Depression is expression extinguished
It doesn't question and it doesn't distinguish
Through its progression hope is relinquished
For the "Depression is...a short poem" contest

Trump Surrounded by Skepticism
Trump was surrounded by skepticism;
Then after he would initiated a schism,
He did attrack,
A heart attack,
That was extinguished by an embolism.

Limerick
She is divinity, a holy flame that shall never be extinguished. A pristine being, in spirit and truth. An undying soul, spreading the pollen from her flowers, her petals soaked in the water of life.
