Short Galvanized Poems

A cold brown face
Presently displaced
Seedingly angry
Compelling a jealous rage
~
Pearl white teeth
Surrounded by a mouth that speaks
Growing lines spitting lies
Truths in disguise galvanized

Somewhere the sun's glowing,
And man's cursing the heat.
The parched wind is blowing,
Singeing the drying wheat.
And man swears in knowing...
Somewhere it is raining:
The gray galvanized sky
Has loosed a liquid burst.
God's water can held high
Has quenched the dust of thirst.
And still man's complaining....

       Swan so vivid
         so graceful
       and courteous
   cascading on water
           tranquil
        like a dream...

         the bards
      so many times
galvanized our thoughts

    And unto this day
    This very moment
     this very second
            again

          the swan
      ‘pon our lives
           embark...

Autumn Child

She'd rather when the season changes
from humidity to serendipity
to make discoveries at a turn
when the autumn leaves fall to the ground
creating a tapestry of colors
in an unbroken sequence
A chorus of red, green and browns
blending together in natures song
as in a round to greet the new weathers chill
She is galvanized by the change
of gaiety and glee
but it's not just for her it's also for me.

Blue balloons with red,
Fear of closing eyes,
A growling dad,
The hostile place,
A terrified boy,

Blue balloons with red,
All desires womanized,
A thorny bed,
Finding skirts to chase,
Sex with a strigoi,

Blue balloons with red,
Stones don’t apologize,
The world of Vlad,
Spirits leave no trace,
The friend is a decoy,

Blue balloons with red,
Witches galvanized,
Cant bell the cat,
With imaginary friends,
And a Helen of troy....

Alluring sunshine intrudes each crack and crevasse heart possessed,

Galvanized warmth within the veins of uncharted territories flow,

Debacle through delusion of tenderness and safety repressed,

Endear so the light as demoralize be the shadow,

Reversal of sunshine bliss to swallow as disloyalty is confessed,

Liars and cheats impersonating as igniting lovers tiptoe.

Mayte,  Autumn Child

She'd rather when the season changes
from humidity to serendipity
to make discoveries at a turn
when the autumn leaves 
fall to the ground
creating a tapestry of colors
in an unbroken sequence
A chorus of red, green and browns
blending together in natures song
as in a round
to greet the new weathers chill
She is galvanized by the change
of gaiety and glee
but it's not just for her
it's also for me.

written for Maria's love of Fall

Dark days dreadful indeed,
Promiscuous
 peasants planting their seed,

Foreign to peace with galvanized hate,
With doubt in ourselves we submit to the great,

We say we are free but tend to conform,
Hand you a noose if you're out of the norm,

We proliferate lies and refute the truth,
Give up our ambition to feel aloof,

Please oh help us powerful god,
Stop those who lie, kill, and maraud,

We have succumbed to infinite darkness,
He may have created us, but has surely departed...
