Desire hardens to
Points of obsession,
Irremovable urges cupped with anguish.
Laughter through the blackest hours,
Exhale soften and cushion the end.

swallowtail unseen
amidst pungent garden green
whilst darkness hardens

Looks good
Tastes sweet
But rots in the belly
Turns to poison in the veins
Travels to the heart
Corrupts it
Hardens it
Dead inside
Need a transfusion

Candle wax dripping down the face
While at the bottom hardens the heart
The wicks fire has burned dark
Once lit with light to see the soul
Now sits on an empty table alone
Tears of wax no longer drip
This candle has been blown out

Depression is that
wicked beast who
sucks your soul from
your body.
It feeds on your
brain until it seems
not a single cell
remains.
Worst of all it hardens
your heart so that no
love may enter
or exit.

pick flowers
drink while nectar flows.
sap is bitter
when stem hardens into wood.
the bumblebee sees not the world
with the petals that surround.
the hive hums with discordant sounds
and empty clamorings.
tomorrow's season is fall.

A masterful foe
This ego of ours
It clothes itself
In arrogant guise
We know not
From where it came
But it chokes our lives
With its pompous game
With cruel intention
It hardens and binds
While we cower behind
Our fickle minds...

Beware the never ending night
That darkens and hardens the heart
Tunnel sight that's devoid of light
And pulls humanity apart
Fragile is the corrupted mind
Once beguiled by the serpent's kiss
Morally blind and soon to find
Forever into the abyss

Self-portrait:
Undressing-
in moon.
Drinking:
from the eyes,
in city of words.
The shadow:
of something unthought,
falls on my earth.
I become:
a ceramic Buddha.
A seed hardens.
Grain by grain:
I dismantle myself
to find the water.

A moment of silence, a breath.
The biggest relief, possibly air.
It's swelling my denatured alleys,
It hardens my lively grains,
Like helium freezing the time
For a weak and abandoned child,
Who regrets and tried to get out of a cage,
That was built by roots
Which are way higher, breathing.

Candles wax time pulls it to Earth,
drops cool stilled hardens in seconds,
a fire holder girth, warps obverse,
candles wax time pulls it to Earth,
vapors prompt darkening observes,
fire loses fight gloaming transcends,
candles wax time pulls it to Earth,
drops cool stilled hardens in seconds.

Solid and sharp
Dense and clear
Emotional change
Warm without touch
Touch with pain
Brightness that sting
Sting with a brush
Smooth with roughness
Shape without forms
Growth that is green
An aim for brightness
A fineness that rivals
Claws with sight
Drips when pulled
Hardens when dried
Textured with time

Sunlight shrouded in stormy clouds
Innocence all too fleeting
Callow trust hardens bitter but wise
Sunlight shrouded in stormy clouds
Fools blinded by love don't see the lies
As we embrace life, naivete' dies
Sunlight shrouded in stormy clouds
Innocence all too fleeting

Icicle hardens; Her prisoner wails.
Soft dripped; Resentful his seasonal sun.
Clung tightly winter, her grip again fails;
Cheeks slip on puddles where four start to run.
Years of denial their story entails –
Captives held hostage by starry travails.

“REPUGNANT”
new love
approaches.
recent wounds
drips less
as the
circumference
closes in.
the bees
disappear
from the hives
as children
from the land
fall to the
root inside
the dollar.
you live,
you laugh,
as life
laughs
at you.
the dog
barks and
the
butterfly
hardens.

Clank . . . Clank
Sparks fly for the first time
across another frigid day
black chunks with shards of clay
thrown anger out the way
Softness hardens amid decay
the midnight's all tucked away
the red, the grey, the blues still play
with one foot in the grave
Deep below the frost line
where Lucifer waits alone
this shovel's getting heavy
lay down in fields of bone

Imagism
Lost in this quicksand of serenity
caught in a death grip I begin to sink;
Falling deep inside I can’t find the edge
trapped within a web of thick emotion;
Is it me or is it your residue
staining my face with this outlandish smile?
Peace feels foreign and uncomfortable;
I kind of like this paper mache mask,,
each layer hardens applied long enough
to change my face into a serene state.

The Blizzard falls on this chilled day
But with your love it all melts away
The wintry frost hovers in the air
But with your love I have no care
The cold does bite while your sould does grow
But with your love I have no care for the snow
The Ice hardens with its interval spell
But with your love I am conten t and well
The freezing rain does halter my destinys start
But with your love I am warm forever from your heart

dayspot caskets introduce the introductions...
....parenthesis with nothing in between them.......
.. patterns and builders in the open fields
destroy what little was left...
... ..... ......
..waiting for the explanation..
the reason for the hesitation....
the papal heart in the wreathed skin
of a divine second guesser.....
skips a beat.. skips a line..
forgets the need to forgive
and hardens to the touch...

I do not know?
I can’t use just any cauldron
To cast what I behold
The core must be made molten
As my legacy unfolds...
Adding substance to the fire
Heats my precious ore
Impurities trade flames entire
Soul until no more...
Courage added to the mixture
Hardens into gold
Add morals and a holy scripture
For the house he holds...
When he stands without the frame
I start to pour again
So he can pass more than his name
To copies after him...

Wilting flower -- weary of praise,
sheds her petals in dry bouquets,
and so she sleeps as beauty must
so love can blossom from her dust.
Melting now in searing weather,
beauty brings their hearts together.
Lovers grow as beauty hardens--
beneath the sun, amidst her gardens.
From morn till noon, from noon to night,
the ardent captives -- holding tight.
In her garden, here they roam;
in beauty's garden, now their home.

I'll take a trip with my imagination
I'll surf on the waves of reality
I'll ask my conscience for clarification
Then flirt and wink at my frailty
A spectrum of all that can be
Is cluttered by reality's mist
It hardens with what i need to see
But i punch through it with desire's fist
No more shall i be held
No less than should be
I'll be measured by how hard i ring Tartarus's bells
And signaling to all that i am free

Dramatic Verse
Men remember the wall clock,
When it is time to doors lock
Or after crows of a cock,
Cocks comparing with a clock...
Some remember hung wall clock
To fast turn up in the dock
And show they can't A Court mock...
One would locks be sparing clock,
Who delays sees as some block,
Sure to be trying a sock
After picked sounds of Tick Tock...
One soon hardens like a rock
From oftenest looks at clock
Before slides into one's smock.

He is not surpassed to be active
as to the teachings of those
who wish to devalue him to
create opportunity
to acquire and subdue what he
has established.
She became okay with being
the churches whore.
She described the burls of
the cherry tree as being needed,
resin vases often benefit from the
stresses of knot.
the perfect sealant hardens the soft tree
creating a long lasting bond
these people refuse to marry me
