Short Foregone Poems

Betwixt
art and craft-
sweetness & light,
division foregone by
design

sky flowered bloomed
rain in the torrent
fragrance of the thunder
frenzy of dreams
showers of the lightning
drenched heart silent
awaiting for
your sweetness, softness
soothing and refreshing
fear is foregone

Foregone are lower passions,
lest be done in haste

Even for the mildly curious,
best designed in chaste

Lower self in heated body,
jest in sure of pleasure

Higher self on different plane,
nesting lofty treasure...

A local political icon

Gave all his speeches with boots on

     The muck he was raking

     No hands were he shaking

His fate with the voters was foregone

Death has always been, a foregone conclusion,
so please don’t live life in an ungodly way.
Heaven isn’t imaginary, nor hell an illusion,
and accounts will be settled on judgment day.

Key to ancient wisdom
Knocks foregone theory
Kismat splits life as a
Knife forged in blazing fire
Kneeling in great dismay
Kicking the bad habits
Kissing future ahead

waiting while
awaiting a date
predating a memory
that has never happened

plagued
by bouts of
rain every day
we set to meet

surely
surely a sign
a sign from god
meetings not meant

to meet
but anon
foregone
too long

later
the rain
now sweat
and cold feet...

                               The Unfathomable Depth, whatever



                         What man has learnt since foregone days

Let's foray, let's foray
Let's foresee the success of our nation.
To becoming foremost
The foreman is on the roll
Let's pray to our forefather and foregather 
The army is foregoing
Let's forefront the other
And forget rivalry
Let's foray and foregather 
To give a foregone conclusion.

Immeasurable Infinity

unfathomable
aware of the Universe
karma
WHAT WILL BE WILL BE

open cerebrum
literally limitless
now
OBSERVE YOU WILL SEE

Some logic foregone
probable and possible
life
INFINITE COULD BE

nature amazes
microcosm divine
watch
EMULATE ITS PEACE

existential mode
humans adapt or implode
quest
PRIMAL BRAIN FIGHT FLIGHT

A message - doom for people uninsured,
the ancient mentor, Jeremiah spoke.
For forty years he forcefully endured
rejection every day, pariah's yoke. 
The weeping prophet cried to heedless folk.

While God's own nation full of doubt and fears
had heard the somber message whereupon
insurance (trust in God) they spurned for years.
At last, eviction: grace and hope foregone.
It's due, captivity in Babylon.

The bums and the heroes
of revolution
asleep
As drawn to the cosmos
a light
travels deep
He asked for no quarter
playing outside
the game
His legion in shadows
he’d never
explain
Each song once it’s sung
his interest
foregone
To blind repetition
he couldn’t
belong
The critics in reference
enshrining
his fame
As the midwestern
prairie wind
—calls out his name

Terse inert verse,
unnerving diction
of repetitious diabolic
deeds of man.

Malice borne of 
selfishness, putrid
thoughts take own
center stage.

No revelation can
deviate the heinous
crimes that continue
to reincarnate.

Atrocious taste and
grievous faults shall
continue to multiply
expeditiously.

Declination of society
and man seems to
be inevitable, a 
foregone conclusion.

It is not
a foregone conclusion,
but a reality;
even porcupines
know love—
without making pain
a subsidiary organism;

The pain of love’s waves
may forth ashore,
but the waves recede
and the forth dissipates,
leaving a sea of memories
floating on the ocean of life;

Yet, docked and anchored,
you can still set sail
to tomorrow, today; trust.

You are the captain 
of your soul
and the wind in your sail:

Ahoy!...

COPLA 96 INVOCATION : This Bad Guy World

How bad’s the Bad Guy State on its own
Strangles own peoples by its laws :
Rule by fear

Can the State’s only aim be foregone :
Shore up flagging image in the jaws –
Horse for Lear

Leaders come together to control
Wayward gods who know not One God :
God be leader

What about that One Great Soul
What’s His role in this God**** World :
Powerless Seer

In your path as we stride
Please let us;allow as strive
For with all might we long to be fine
Admist odds, we've got to shine

Our hearts with hot coal burn
With dreams, too strong to be foregone
Success being our utmost pinnacle
Please bring not,our way an obstacle

Pain is the wave we fight
In the end,we hope to delight
For our suffering cannot be in vain
After all,we aspire to gain

So dear life,be not a mice
Change your face,be once nice...

Forgetfulness is not one of my better traits
Never the result of any foregone conclusion,
I could blame it on the narrow-minded fates
Or other faults my mind harbors in profusion.
Of all those ills, none causes me such anxiety
As forgetting a most important appointment,
And I try to make all those occasions a rarity
Since they always produce a disappointment
And, sometimes a missed appointment fee!

All now under the sun -
Brother and sister popping corn,
Watching a clip they call a porn;
Society says it is their fun.

Long before I was born,
Before His kingdom was gone,
Wards were warned to shun,
What we now license bob son.

Moral mantle is torn
And tomorrow we shall mourn
Old time religion foregone
That has brought us to scorn.

Carnality wears its counterfeit crown,
Zeus blowing his delinquent horn.

Life is contradictive but never predictive,
Concealing but never deceiving, preconceiving or vindictive,
Only addicted to our own restrictions of right and wrong,
To the places we are and the places we belong,
We pick the places that we feel like we are much more strong,
Because where we want to be is too far or too far gone,
But life can be revealing if you trust where you are drawn,
It's about the life you'll forge, not what you've done or have foregone....

Disuniting each golden silken strand
from an antique tapestry,
then gently setting them aside
An ole' brush is lifted from a bureau,
consumed by silver strands of pilus.

Thread & hair 
intricately 
interwoven into a 
magnificent object-d-art,
now adorns a chair of 
satin splendor,
like a laciniate leaf from
slivers of antiquities.

Priceless treasures
brought to light as tender
tiny stitches 
collectively fashion
gold and silver of
foregone times....

One final leap
from high solitude
into city of dusk,
takes you to presence
of charred remains
of a fallen god.

A housewife moves in the kitchen
to prepare a farewell dinner
for the encounter of fatal descent.

A paranormal parting
to comeback to body of truth,
as you pick up your words.

Space odyssey in eyes,
palms folding,
to receive the punishment.

No complaints, no grieving
conclusion of foregone stopping.
A line will start from a dot.

Deep in a pocket of light, well within the harsh night
of heat and longing, safe within the porch’s embrace
the down turned eyes .. the upturned face
the lovers pose.

In randy states of disarray, the couple choses to display
the haunting distance .. so delayed, so near,
the harsh black light.

Foreground, foregone, foray, reborn, torn, on display;
tomorrow will be another day ..
for now, Mother’s home.

Sitting in the waiting room her sunlit day; complying to their sequence
Amid a foregone conclusion ? Appearing suddenly out of nowhere
Ineffable somehow it seems this, March two thousand twelve's
National Geographic's copy titled, 'The Journey of the Apostles....
Theocracy's last supper sublime; tableaux ? Instinct taking hold slowly
Savoir-faire walking past these doors surely tis for me ? Sanctum sanctorum
Seder thirty years now, gone by ? Why his doctor queried; Angels in the mist hieros....
