Never a merrier man than me

The Science of Colours

Trying to fathom 
the science of colours, the 
beautiful swarm of 
shades and tinges: the abyss
and the heaven in your eyes.

Where deep compassions cry;
Emotions ten to rise;
Fathom spies;
Heartless;

Believing

I believe in everything.

But then again, 

sometimes I cannot fathom

believing the beliefs, gets bewildering.

Restless Beast

King of the jungle,
Heart's a beast that never sleeps,
Yet it always dreams;
Tugged by its roaring beats, we
Fathom what seems unreal

This Student Teacher

This student teacher is a pirate.
He robs every student’s heart,
leaving everyone lifeless,
in the sea of imaginations,
that none of them can fathom.

Fathom

Dive into my constellation and witness the collision of my stars. Fathom how a new galaxy is created within my depths. Traverse the superclusters of my soul.

werewolf reaches his paws in the air
plucking the moon out of her safe place
he has ominous plans, ones I cannot fathom
I fearfully stare as it is happening

dead in the ocean with a broken neck ~ a fledgling chick hits the deck 

dragged down below the waves ~ can angelfish fathom a watery grave

The Catty Car

Was it a car or a cat i saw
Screeching tyres like the scratch of a claw;
Mad? Am I madam
Why? I don't fathom -
Driving that car should be against law.

Premium Member Probably Worse

I know this will get better
because I cannot fathom it feeling any worse
although my eighty-eight year old mother put 
bleach on her shingles.
That was probably worse.

Insomnia

On tangled plots and idle thoughts
The mind can fathom deep
In vast detail each bunny trail
Whenever I should sleep

Nubile Love

Nubile love seeking
mature adventures.
Pulling into its irresistible appeal,
without control,

compelling to live again.

Tomorrow 


Joy
Conservative, coy
Sorrow
Grave tomorrow 
Window of chance
A striking dance

Not one could  fathom

Premium Member A Memory Revisited

i remember my grand-mother
when she sang in the choir
at her baby sister's funeral

it wasn't till decades later
that i began to fathom
the depths of her grief

Death Has a Dimension

Death has a dimension
Measureless and void
What instrument could fathom
All nullity?

Reason tries to grasp it
Sincerest faith denies it
How futile to approximate
That universal dread!

Is Life But a Dream 2k11

Homosapiens therein a state of sleep;  
To truly rouse forth thereafter thier deaths?  
Shall Sheperd say... He trusts they'd well sleep?  
Life, a dream? They'll fathom post final breaths.

My Man

A man of many hues
that’s you,
one I cannot fathom
that’s true.
But when I look 
into your eyes
all I see is blue,
so maybe that's  
how I think of you.
Dazzling blue,
always true,
my man blue….

Yeaa, I'M Ritee

I am too dexterous,
too unique,
too livee,
too formative,
too statuesque,
too Jessalynn,
too enlightened,
too memorable,
too restricted,
& too captivating to even fathom, by any means of you.

Cannot Fathom

The unimaginable 
The thing that is most inhabitable
Weary of loneliness
Scared by rejection
One without the right correction
remember perfect you are not
And realize how hard this war was fought
