Before the Flood

Death was invented
when life tired of the living
Eternity flexing
—the muscles of time

No To Federal Sars

What if I say yes to Federal SARS;
Will they ever stop seizing big cars,
Or stop killing the innocents?
Labelling it as accidents;
While flexing and dancing to guitars...

School Dance

Young boys
Looking in the mirror
Combing hair with wet comb
Practicing alluring smile
Flexing developing biceps
Steel yet to be hardened
Dreaming with sweaty palms
Hoping she says yes

S P Inning

Holding 
The pieces of 
Fragmentation
In my hands
Listening

To the pulse
Of your being

Rigid
Stance
Flexing
My fingertips
Controlling

The anger
That threatens
To kill me

Beautiful land
Full
Enough
Just enough
Of enough

Full coloured
Patturns
Spinning
Life

The Wrestlers

We are the wrestlers,
And it's a fine day to wrestle,
It's fine today and fine tomorrow,
It's o so fine, when we wrestle sorrow,

We are the wrestlers,
Worshipful hands and flexing feet,
I need to earn, so this sorrow I must meet, 
Run and jump, grip and throw
Next move?
... I do not know

My Prose Will Flow

I go to the gym most every day,
  my fountain pen in hand

My curls and dips move line to line,
  I press as words expand

My repetition sorely felt,
  more weight I need command

And through these veins my prose will flow,
  —verse flexing on demand

New Dimension

Climbing the ladder
Surface to ignight 
Space circling the planets
Speaking in the division
Count to 1 to 5
Spiritual lifting
Circling a dimension of redness.
Taking clothes to the new world
Contributing/Donating my clock
Climbing the ladder to this
Shifting, reflexing, flexing
The scenic rainport
Falling

Human Landscape

   Man the tall mountain,
    
    Protector to pose,

    Flexing of granite,

    Willed flesh to propose.


    Woman the valley,

    Soft curving flow,

    Stretching of lushness,

    Receiving to grow.


    Leave them as different,

    Equal or bold,

    Embracing of matter,

    Completing the mold.

Sable Poetic Leakings

assiduous
spiritual voices
whisper veracious words:
faith tested
is faith strengthen…
firmed like tested muscles…
flexing mind
expands and joyful spirits
dance as mental quills
ink blood of truths…
hemorrhaging
melodic metered sounds
flowing freely from 
the sable cerebral womb:
delivering new hope
sucking leaking nipples
of undying faith…

Up To His **** In 'Gators!

When the skydiver leapt from his plane

     What he saw below to his great disdain

          Were 'gators flexing their jaws

               Expecting grub for their maws

                    To pursue this sport he must be insane

Feral instinct

Blatant display 
of weaponry
on Republic day,
perhaps tradition,
invoking pride
and patriotism 
but somehow I feel,
such muscle flexing,
crass and vulgar,
is best avoided
by all regimes
who so flaunt
aggressive intent
but there’s a vote bank,
that looks forward 
to fanning fires
and so the monarch 
goes with the script
which is proven
to keep him
and his cronies
in power.

In the Vapor

Near the belching
condensate tanks
off the interchange,
slinks a mammal
with abnormal need

to find a blind
with water to drink
and flapping fish to eat
instead of concrete.

He sheds a scowl
under the amber glow
of buzzing sodium lamps
until veins gather force
like throbbing tributaries

that course from a source
pure in flexing purpose;
despite how we deprive
he drives to survive.

Broken

I didn't know that all this could happen
He thought that he was a simp
But instead he was a noow
He used to think that he was flexing yet cheugy

This became salty when I got sus
When his fam told me of his dirty plans
I had to ghost so as to calm myself
Since he was acting so crashy

Getting off was the best idea though
I was hurt when I knew no cap
Later realized that shipping wasn't Gucci

Powder Keg

Another
       black man murdered 
            by cops
              playing the role
                 of judge and jury.
                  The powder
                   keg they’ve
                   ignited
                  is set
                 to explode.
               But bigots
            flexing their muscles
          receive the protection
       of
corrupt lawmakers.

Yoga

Breathing deeply relaxing the chaotic mind and soul
Stretching to mother nature besotted in the spiritual energies
Mind empty focussing to the enchantment of tradition
Folding bodies flexing into beautiful mind taking positions
Free from anger mind resting from all those everyday thoughts
Meditation unexplainable as one becomes so free
Ending so refreshed feeling the pureness again in me

Bowl And Swim

Bowling is what I do during Spring time
And swim hundred feet touching the sea floor
Flexing like a gymnast, swing overtime
Holding my breath, a bowler underscore
Bowls of clear blue waters I play for more
Bowling pins like needles for life I strike
Bowling and swimming, sports for life I like


Don't swim too deep without an oxygen tank...
Life is precious to keep as waters know no rank!

Fish Fest

Schools of fish in this lake seem to hold a fest
Fishes of all sorts swim in an august zest 
Shining in spotted, striped, silver, and gold vest
Schools of fish in this lake seem to hold a fest
Carp, cod, hake, jack, shad, and sole in blest best jest
Flexing and gliding through the calm water crest
Schools of fish in this lake seem to hold a fest
Fishes of all sorts swim in an august zest

My Tears

The meeting of the minds
It was on the cards
The rebirth of humanity
It was on the tip of the ice breaker

Sometimes you have to swallow a lemon
In order to make a lemonade
Sometimes you have to mix sour and sweet
In order to emphasis the taste buds

Waking up is the beginning
Getting up is sweeter than honey
Proceeding towards is flexing the muscle
Holding it, is indeed an honour that should be embraced

Sike

Readying the cannon for war
Barricading the mind for battle
Protecting thy neck from the noose
Flexing my arms to brace for impact

Walking through trial’s gate 
Veering in the distance my eyes drop
Chattering teeth seize and sleep
No one is here to challenge my soul

A sigh of relief and cold calm
For today the battle is postponed
However another day it shall be
A trial for the ages, I shall get my rest

Mouthbreather, Bottomfeeder

hours fracture by
spigots clog every pore
the ideatron flickers on off
on off, on off, on off
flexing muscles and flipping through 
maladjusted soft spots in the lightly lit dayroom
sometimes i soak in the inane and wonder
am i really inching closer to something worthwhile
or am i ever falling, flailing arms into the ruin of insanity?

but there's something inside me
it must mean something

it must mean i'm losing it

Butterfly On a Rock

Juxtaposed with emerald green shamrock and flowers of yellow and cinnabar. In my garden sits a red granite rock, set with flecks of quartz, mica, and feldspar. Butterflies are attracted to its salts, and once, I spied an indigo-blue one. A masterpiece, Mother Nature exalts; this living sapphire shimmered in the sun. Adorn with gold filigree fit for kings, it stood poised on that rock, flexing its wings.

A Tiger No Worse

She reposed in the greenest shadows, her ankles fat
Flexing her well-trained muscles like an enormous cat
We felt ourselves being watched but did not know
It was spring elf woman, until her eyes began to grow

A tiger! A puma! A lion! We were guessing like mad.
If it had been one of them we would have been rather glad.
Spring elf woman has a reputation of being incredibly mean.
So far things were okay, because she has remained quite unseen.
