lying helpless

can't move

paralyzed

immobilized

i can see everything

opening my mouth for words 

i can not speak

my thinking still goes on


The Prisoners House

Arrested by fear,
   Positioned to become prey,
       The snake takes a jab,
      Paralyzed, immobilized,
       Skillfully demoralized.

The Honey Thief

THICK AND SWEET
LIKE HONEY
YOUR LOVE
DRIPPED UPON ME
COVERED ME
LIKE A NEW SKIN
IMMOBILIZED
I AM ABSORBED
INTO THE WARM AMBER
STICKING LANGUID
IN MY PORES
TO WAIT
FOR MY FAITHFUL BEEKEEPER.

O Africa, Please Stand Still

O Africa, when will you stand still
My fingers are not camera enough
To catch your undulating will
My seascape while the waves were rough
Immobilized, my canvas fill
Me with disgust, I hate dead things
But paint the living without its life
O Africa, please stand still.

Toxic State

Immobilized by trepidation
like a prisoner on the rack
An imagined consternation 
From another anxiety attack
Constant state of dissipation
From perceived things I lack
A complete liquidation
Making a weary insomniac
Like a slow and steady ablation
Like a stoic, reserved maniac

Night Sweats

Startled at night, I awake,
frozen, motionless, immobilized,
eyes straining into the black void,
phantoms darting about me,
springing from every direction,
heart racing, rapidly breathing,

fantasy and fear running amok

Disorder

Anxiety of worries
stresses in life
emotional fears
rigid in perception
patterns unbroken
frozen in movement
from opportunities passed.

Avoiding of participation
sitting on the sidelines
watching in slow motion
the fear of dying
hearts racing fast
in much anticipation
reclusive and isolated
from the world
passing you by
trapped in a prison
that is no lie
immobilized I cry.

End of Terrorists

Found bloodied and mutilated bodies of 
religious extremist murderers

As cadavers they lie beside 
unshelled bullets and shells

Now lay dead, frozen with souls taken, 
unmoved

Masters,raised them to be butchered,
unspotted

Their kin by birth cursed by the world, 
 immobilized

Death gives them punishment,sufferings,
 impartially

World does not fear them rather they prey 
themselves

Time freezes & moments become static Monotony paralyzes & life becomes immobilized Repetition numbs & one becomes robotic Variation vanishes & existence becomes circular ------ Variation vanishes & existence becomes circular Repetition numbs & one becomes robotic Monotony paralyzes & life becomes immobilized Time freezes & moments become static

Premium Member Mayhem

World abandonment
vanity infests
greed escalates
charity nullified

Competitive paradise
prices uncontrollable
hunger staggering
debt maximized

Honest  lost
integrity futile
words misconstrued
greed rapid

Equality vanished
pensions minute
labor intensified
 jobs down sized

World absorbed
humans consumed
profits soar
mortgages abandoned

World immobilized
composure lost
hope desperate
destruction eminent.

Silent Cries, It Kills

Bells and gongs they chime,
along my hours they rhyme,
pallid face, they a deadpan,
outstretched eyes, that deluge began,
deep buried thoughts, along silent patio,
they climb afar, distant hills brow,
frail hopes, play hide and seek,
false they speak, and all seems bleak,
those beating nerves, immobilized in cold, 
like a dagger dressed, in fresh shed blood,
carried once again, to that perch of cliff,
her minute felicity, gone in a whiff.

Premium Member " Rebel of the Shadows"

I experienced early on the block
Don't respect a rebel

So I etched my own lane, created 
On truth,

And battled every day just to
Earn my come-up

' Cause the streets only fear a real rebel

One who won't fold, won't flex from the truth. 

Some twilights I bled for the cost of truth

But discomfort never immobilized  my

Hierarchy rise,

It only amplified the fire in a rebel. 

Rebel, truth, rise; the lore I transmit through 

The shadows

Premium Member She Imprisoned Herself

She thoroughly imprisoned herself at the age of twenty-one.
Putting herself into a dire situation.
Assuring herself there was no way out.
Telling her mind not to bother to escape her predicament.

Her mind readily jumped onto her new hopeless mindset.
Assuring the rest of her body it could shut down.
They were in prison today and would never escape.
Others tried to convince her otherwise, but it did not work.

She was determined to be imprisoned and immobilized.
No one ever knew why.
