Sentenced wrongly
imprisoned well
The bars a fortress
—where voices dwell
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
Imprisoned anxiety
A hefty encumbrance
You either shake it off, or...
be crushed under it

Angelic creature
Imprisoned by your beauty
In chains I hobbled
Spewing darkness from the soul
Cleansing myself to be yours
The gray dawn baptized,
—a child of night
Salvation hostage,
—imprisoned light
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2017)
Taken from your lands
Imprisoned, beaten, chained
No one understands???????

I exhume notions,
Imprisoned in my psyche,
Thought long ago perished.
Sustainer of Life
Imprisoned within a jail
House made out of bone—
When lying still I hear you
Pounding on your captor’s wall
A dream visions
captured
in the capsules
of the brushes,
the painter sets them free.
Anything can't be imprisoned,
if once born...
Walling off the bad
You've self-imprisoned your heart
From reaching the good;
Hope you understand life now,
It's imperfect just like us
Imprisoned by limitations
Delayed by fear
Bound by contracts
In servitude of the dollar
Grueling
Not fair
No acceptance
This is not life
Divine breath in me why have Thee imprisoned Thyself within the walls of the temporal?

It is just another little solitary prison,
Containing everything of which I am as a person.
Seems I am meant to be alone without any visitation.
There’s a daring voice inside me
clutching the iron bars of my throat
It yearns to speak the truth my eyes see
Imprisoned, though, silenced its vote
Lodged in oyster shell,
irritating grain of sand,
grows pearl of great price.
Being beautiful,
and imprisoned in dark shell,
it longs to be free.
The old man flirted with barmaid- Marie
When she charged him of rape, felt no fury
Feeling proud, pleaded guilty
He wanted no pity
Sad, he was imprisoned for perjury
School used to be my awful place.
Some teachers did not understand.
Kinesthetic child moves
New ideas okay
The best practices
Was the Sixties
Imprisoned
School
Cell
That conniving bird Tweety Pie
Hoodwinked me and told me a lie
Said I’d take centre stage
If I crept in his cage
Imprisoned, I’m here till I die!
Whispers before me,
echoes behind
Voices portending,
words to remind
Sleepless imprisoned,
nights linger on
Shadows approaching
—memory gone
(Dreamsleep: May, 2020)
She launched one-hundred ships,
She quenched the thirst of men’s souls,
She imprisoned hearts with a single look,
Yet, you grow brighter than her with every stolen glance.
Form:
CIRCUS
Exiled from native homes
Slave creatures imprisoned,
Forced to do tricks,
Tightrope lions, clapping seals.
Elixir of grotesque clown disguises
Drab animal lives.
Afraid, Buts, Cautious
Destroys Everything, Failure?
God? Happiness? Imprisoned
Jackass? Killer, Life?
Monotonous, Nothing?
Options, Power, Quest!
Understanding, Voice! Witness
Form:
This year, life's essential missions are missed- imprisoned neath rules and masks.

Our souls want to stay
Our bodies want to leave and receive new love, exploring a new world.
And if one day we feel imprisoned by the whole world, return to our never-separated souls.
Imprisoned glass
Hard water waiting for Spring
Flee from Winter's grasp.

Let me out of my bony cage, where
I`m imprisoned, filled with rage
Let me out of this mind, don`t mind
If you lose it for me, be so kind
Let me cut the silver cord
Hurry with your flaming sword
