Short Hinged Poems

Light
fitting-
hinged upon
the lick of a
switch.

bi-hinged sticky feet

              socketing eyes felt toy limbs

                     creeping up on me...

objectivity
      evidences actions spoken
      feelings  thoughts
figurative textures
                          symbols
          faded metaphors
                         hinged
intrusions graduated
in casual
            tones
              elaboratly 
spoken 
     prosaically    layered

   assimulated
     slowly...

Absent oxygen, 
survival hinged on fire.
Launched anchor,
sunken ship of desire. 
Mind's weapon 
waging war 
with free soul.
Blind volunteer
leads on,
midnight patrol. 
Too little, 
too late, 
too much,
just wait. 
That's wrong, 
that's weird,
you can't, 
more fear. 
Creeping frost,
on sunless arboretum. 
Thus guilt, 
contrasted freedom.

Tinseled reflexives....

Emitting from this oblong box

As manifest projections

Exploding in reversions sky ~

Stardust as dreamfuls walking through 

This clearing, of magicals illusions....

Knocking upon fates hinged door

To dust away these breathless webs

Sweeping out the silence upon

Reveilles inverted request....

The town is empty
all houses are deserted.

vacant streets solemnly
lie in stillness

long ago the rivers
have dried up
leaving hard cracked
ground behind.

There's no one here
No one left.

The town's become a wasteland.

Tumble weeds roll
past naked lawns
carried on by dry dusty wind.

a half-hinged door
bangs somewhere in the distance.

The wind hears-
then chooses not to listen....

Locket.

Two halves, hinged, backed in gold and carved so carefully.
Two faces, inside, set apart and kept behind glass.

When prying eyes open it wide, the two faces look away,
Avert their gaze, indifferent neighbours.

So the prying eyes discard their curiosity and leave them be.
More fool them.

For when it's closed, they look upon each other once more,
And face to face they know their secret's safe.

Lock it....

Lilac bush full
          spring's ties to nature's core
Buds that kidnap smell
Sweet layers of scent weaponry
Panoply burst of blooms
           modesty displaced
Flower cradles barely hinged by gravity

Purple bunches 
            that color the center of consciousness
            sweeping away grassroots complaining
            sweeping off a time drifting to cruelty
            freeing the buttoned restraints of love...

The queen has all the power
while foot soldiers goad the king
though he maybe important
the church ahead of hymn

as too crusading bishops
diagonally move to sing
the knights gallant in battle
before a fall within

the castle's rabble- rousers 
encircled squares are ringed
battles meant to topple towers
to where the fight was hinged

the territory taken
with patience wearing thin
when black on white is shaken
who turns the tide to win?

The 80’s and 90’s she rocked 
Flawless piece of tender hope that always settled in her strong heart 
Trees she climbed, folk tales she told and the heart she won, 
Is the treasure she hinged onto us, 
Pretty, courageous with a golden heart lustrous soul 

NOW GONE, 
Leaving the violets’ withered,  
Innocent laughter and mesmerising songs  
in a void. 

But a smile she left. 
A vestige 
For me to discover and for her to shine brighter in the sky....

hinged on wooden,  loved starved, designs  
are my  "Sailor's Valentines" 
floating a drift with sentimental love's gifts
just to wait for love's Sweet souvenirs
to float a love shells this way...
 
to be redeem by love, given with faith 
this is but, one of many  "Coupon of love" 
to be opened at love's heavenly gates

for on this "Black Day" i do wait 
for this romantic Jajangmyeon 
spread no longer between 
two broken plates

My heart's hinged door forcefully burst
But the instant coffee I owned was decaf!
My eyes died, parched of thurst,
My tearless decision was just to laugh.

These beatings last forever,
But I find your love is pain.
Drag me up the stairs; together...
Black eyed me, bruised with you again.

Hobbling always, resilient is me.
Keeping each beat with heartfelt rapidity.
Time never winds down, failing to free me.
So blowing blood out my nose~ I'm endless stupidity!
