~~~
It may have been only an illusion,
a delusion or dream;
yet, in that vivid imagination
I once possessed,
the tiniest crack became
an open floodgate ~
I couldn’t help myself
from drowning
in you.
~~~
A floodgate
Is opened in the
Meanderings of
Wholeness
As THIS gains
Resonance..
THIS excludes
No story..and all
Stories can expand
Racing away as
The story of the
Expanding universe..
Words hang together
Somehow and can
Seem as infinity
Lives in each
Story:
THIS...
Listen to poem:
Writing I most appreciate
When poetry I can create
Be it a sonnet impromptu
I need every word to ring true
I sometimes open the floodgate
When I only meant to tempt fate
It's often whimsy I pursue
Dreams of Corfu and Kathmandu
Taking my pen I bid adieu
I need to write an ode to you

Her bare shoulder
red silky strap's open secret
her bare shoulder
sensuous silk's silent wonder
opens up fantasies' floodgate
moonwalk from anklet to bracelet
her bare shoulder

I see a world steeped in tears of sorrow,
there is so much bigotry, greed, and hate,
that I fear what fate awaits tomorrow.
As politicians scam you to donate,
corruption flows like an open floodgate.
Depriving women of having a choice;
fascists and evangelists share one voice.
The uneducated support a fool,
and both political parties rejoice;
the poorly informed are a useful tool.
Walls were covered in cobwebs that chattered.
Splash is flaking from the crumbling floodgate.
It was flawed to wait while you were battered.
Walls were covered in cobwebs that chattered.
A long time of hush leads in aged flattered.
And some items that may freshly relate.
Walls were covered in cobwebs that chattered.
Splash is flaking from the crumbling floodgate.

Cannot cry, tears don't know which way to go
they are caught in an emotional maze
bottled up tears, have formed a wall of woe
The nose may run, but the eyes simply glaze
Such repressed sorrow is more than a phase
Crystallized dam has been growing for years
Fortified fortress of blood, pus and fears
Feelings that are deemed way over the top
Afraid to release this floodgate of tears
Once the crying starts it may never stop

"Deep Waters"
These walls full circle
This room full tide
Deepest Deep Waters
All shades of Blue
Floodgate sheds lives
Empty room
Vacant garden bed
Dead Womb
Departure
Called Home
Cut the chord
Reborn

It’s The Heart Stupid
By: Miracle Man
8/7/2019
Our Country seems filled
With guns and hate.
The rash of shootings
Is like an open floodgate.
We see the race card played
On almost any given day.
But It’s the hearts of men
That cause bullets to spray.
Taking away the guns
Will never be the answer.
But the blood of Jesus
Can eradicate this cancer.
When man’s evil heart
Is bent on destruction.
The taking of life with guns
Will have no reduction.
