They make me a little rounder

I need not
these whoremoans
nor this 
baby baking box
nor does my lover
need me flopping
like a flounder
on the docks...

My feelings flounder
like a sky of dying stars
already snuffed out
yet still sending waves of light
to haunt my heart at midnight...

I am Flounder, wild and young.
I flap my fins and love to have fun.
And sometimes when I eat bad algae,
I make the water a little bit bubbly!...

Without time
wonder stops
Questions flounder
barren crops

Without time
motion falls
Beginnings vacant
—endings stalled

there was an old flounder named May
who lived in the Chesapeake Bay
each day was a test
and he considered himself blessed
if he survived being made catch of the day

My mood is down for obvious reasons
Trying to stay strong but anxiety increases
With each passing hour
More and more I flounder
When will it end, my concern for her deepens...

Holy crapola, depends on who we are
Some grab the brass ring and swing from a star
Others flounder about
Dribble from the mouth
But at the very least, life's still quite bizarre...

twilight time

     at deserted shore ~
           
             abandoned boats flounder

screen of awareness, eternal
present within, Gods miracle 
why then do we flounder about 
indulging in bout after bout
silence makes our freedom simple

we know not the way
so we flounder about
in this maze dismayed
until choosing stillness 
we go in deep within
into the cave of heart
where we meet our Self
without help of mirrors

What's the consensus bout the existence of aliens
My take on the subject is their all homo sapiens
Dressed in white sheets
With enormous big feet
Smelling like skunks and flounder simultaneous...

Birth to death, awareness remains unchanged
What then is life
Dream sequence
Moments
Here

Time
Thus flows
Nonchalant
As we flounder
Periphery moves; the centre is still

The tempest

Rising storms, the tempest rise
Facing foes, that have arrived.
Foes unseen in daylight’s rise.
Backs toward the sun we ride,
To realize steel has lost its might,
We flounder back, lost in our plight....

Ecclesiastical is this 
Problem now. 

And I wish to expel
Sentiments of fluff
that flounder and burrow

So sugary but
Stale is the taste
You spilled on my 
Palette. 

As the time ticks
Fast and furious
I deserve an escape....

Beckon and Dead Reckon 

I hear quaint calls that do beckon;
Determine direction must dead recon,
To find out angle where coming from;
Catch flounder, dolphin and some drum,
And need right equipment for detecting.

Although epsilon
Ego so enlarged
In truth comical
As also tragic
A waking nightmare

What may we do
Save rest in void
Eye of the storm
In staid silence

We stagnate
And flounder
So helpless

Hermit
Awake

Now

When we rise each morning 
We face yet, another day
It is another opportunity 
To enhance your mind greatly in every way 
There are more lessons to learn 
By the minute and hour 
We take in everything at face value 
In order not to flounder...

Nought, zero, nix, blank
Out of information
To impart with no
Heroics to present
Idolized in prose.
Nubilous words flounder
Growing into a mishmash of

Total nothingness.
Opine this silly

Sentiment anyway
As if
You'all are even listening....

Man and wife are at opposite ends of the scale
When it comes agreeing on what's important in life, we fail
Obsessed with crumbs on the counter
Berates him till into a battle they flounder
Life's too short to worry about crumbs for peace to prevail...

Jagged like spurs, harshness of curs
Relying on instinct
Spewing slurs, heart’s radiance blurs
Roaming ego’s precinct

We flounder in stupor
Rabid desires anchor 
Enmeshment in rancour

Ragged
Jagged

we stay till the time,
that our fate string is cut,
served time  4 our crime,
our next step is up,
new adventure sublime...
soul onwards, winged stuff...
to flounder and flap, 
to get the beat right enough....Don
