put aside to make an extract in
filaments of primal abstractions.
Restless movements dripping,drop

Steepest ascent, a spree

Whitebait shoals abounding
Await echo sounding

Attract gannets display
To extract gleaming prey

Dust in the mist floats in free fall,
Apt the fine gist now telling all;
Zest channels list in mellow churn,
Extract due gist as footsteps fall.

Extract fond cheer as silence tells;
Apt the pure voice that word the best,
Calm lives right here where love works spell;
Etch a still noise in timeless fest.

Oily politicians line the public troughs with it
Wealthy corporations dress it up in lofty mission statements
Erotic mistresses ooze it to extract favors from lovers
Reformers inevitably glom onto it to achieve dubious ends...

We livre for a new hope
Dangerous Prissians
A tell-tale croach-rod
I move finally, in-ally.
Losing the power.
Gaining the momentum
We dance to the Atan
British-Atan
A head for beat rock
A poem is written
I extract the beauty of life
For the outcome of tech...

Living without the need
  for either love or hate
And immune to the emptiness
  of which so many talk

I marvel at the effects
  they both instill and extract
As my mind understands in concept,
—what my heart denies

Ignorance is a flaw
Which a prescription can be written for
One for compassion and empathy 
And a  large kindness suppository !

Another prescription for education
Understanding,tolerance and patience 
A blood test to extract cruel
No longer an ignorant fool!!...

At midnight it's like thunder
striking my aged mind

Early morning ruins
my breakfast meals

In my work place it butt in
my daily hectic assignment

On a whole day summarily

Oh my dentist please help,
extract this aching tooth of mine....

Listen to poem:

a love transcending eternity
on perfumed flights of honeysuckle
come to me in delectable bursts

If they cut 
 my meat,
meat  they will  not find ...
If they extract away
 my eyes,visions they
will not  find ...
If they break me
the legs,
bones not
there will be ...
But they burn
my poems, they
will discover
the whole verb,
all humanity verity
since
the genesis ...!...
