Short Impeding Poems

I
I watched you walk away and still followed you,
well aware of the impeding pain.

Impeding on my soul’s clarity,
confusing my heart’s true feelings,
yet making me feel alive.
but I don’t want that life,
unlike my nature.
What takes over 
to create,
this thing,
lust?...

Indict Trump House Is Proceeding

Trump told many lies while impeding;
Towards destruction country is leading;
Often pausing;
Trouble causing;
Indict him House plans on proceeding.

Heart Has Been Bleeding

Trump gets in way and is always impeding;
He constantly did want us to be conceding;
We must admit;
A dumb dimwit;
Caused all of our hearts to start bleeding.

Holding waves of gray
Swimming in the sky today
Grey ceiling above
Floating over highest heights
Going high up overhead

Love can be quite volatile
From sunny blue to gray skies
The heart can seem to be grey
When love finds impeding gloom

Familiar storm - stampeding, impeding,
drawing in colder days, lighting up
monotone skies, winterizing holiday rise.

Thoughts of yesteryear - their existence
unclear, relegating nonsensical notions,
subjugating my mind - celebrating life.

There are day's where
We beseech peace and
There just seem to be
No way to do it with-out
       Impeding God
               -And-
       His self-worth'
Feeling that He is the
           Only Diety
So prevalent on this
         Earth
And is amendable
         To you
The Son of man
        -Fore-
You are well worth
       His worth

a throbbing ache emanating from the heart
infecting the blood that runs though its veins
pulsating a malicious toxic venom
contaminating every thought
distressing and impeding psychosomatic pain
mind over matter in a dark defeatist manner

The Life I can't get back
Is always retreating
And it's forested walls
They're always impeding

My charts are always clouded
My stars are always fogged
By maps that are always shrouded
By routes that're always Clogged

Into the neverending
I embrace the unknown
With passion unending
Into the never shown

That I walk with no purpose
I walk with no aplombe
I walk with no sense of urgence
Once more to the unknown...

That
that was
hitherto
hidden from us,
in time is revealed.
The ego impatient,
as a doer, interferes,
impeding flow of the current,
thereby delaying our soul progress.
The path clear: we must vaporise ego!

Unable to use mind to transcend mind.
we melt into the void of stillness,
going within in quietude;
in tranquil joy solitude.
No one here resident,
save child innocent,
unresistant,
allowing
bliss to
flow.

Veil of snow impeding my desire,
I trudge in spite of you;
I trudge because of you,
my legs knee deep in ice.

Frigid wind conspiring to obstruct my path,
I trudge despite you,
I travel through you
and my body heat will survive you.

Hopelessly wandering the barren ice,
seeking a reprise.
I am cold, I will surmise;
yet I shall overcome the pain
to achieve my destination;

...because public transportation
should be free and the free-est of them all is walking....

Light Out On A Limb

When light and are out
On long limb hanging from a tree;
May not bend as much.

Do you have to be light on
your feet so you can start
seeing the light? You might
have to wait until early 
morning is breaking and
things start dawning upon 
you like more poems. That 
is how it has happened to 
me. How about you?

Maybe Katherine can consider
my Haiku for her Poetry Revisited
poetry reading now that time on 
us has started rapidly impeding.
