I am an unwilling participant.
But it is inescapable.
An earthly evil.
Death would be preferable,
but no, it is taxes…....

Mountains of logic
Our inescapable truths
Bury us alive

Cradle my youth
In your softest hold
A hard exterior hides
A fragile format within
And as I’m almost away
From this inescapable innocence
I want the past to be preserved...

It was inexcusable,
Mean,
Terrible,
Despicable, 
Horrible
Inevitable,
Inescapable,
The worst I had ever seen

What was it?

I stood and stared at her.
Wishing I could remember....

          bone chilling night I saw a man passing through the alley
          as if running away from inescapable something;
          becoming a dim shadow the man vanishes in the dark...

Two
Seems as bedrock
Of knowing..
Of stories and
Life as known..
All words express
Two..even those 
Words intending to
Express not-two..
Swirling expressions 
Of inescapable 
Not-knowing......

Listen to poem:

meltwater
exhaled breath
warm remnant of kiss
inescapable consequences
ramifications off-ramp.

despite en garde, parry loop,
deflect dodge defy deny and cry;
relent now, 
imbibe and savor the afterglow....

Ink

Indelible etchings
ingrained on a stone hearts
insatiable desire.
Icarian escape
igniting defiant
incantations of hope’s
inescapable truth.

In this life, 
of inevitable recompense, 
of inescapable accountability, 
for collective responsibility, 
indifference to injustice
is not an option;
an epitasis, it is,
in this metaphoric 
epic drama of life...

Reality is the
Enemy, the real world our foe. We
Assemble an army of fantasy, 
Demanding there be war. The outcome
Inescapable, but our dreams refuse to die.
Never consenting to
Give in, ears ring with our battle cry....

The bullets 
will be there tomorrow
the endless sorrow
inescapable regret
that will linger, fade
reappear in the future

pure unspoiled poetry
twas an illusion
until the hipster decried
the archaic language

the pulchritudinous moonwake captivates 
inescapable 

implicature is 
inevitable 

as our psyche thirsts for light 
so poetry shines into the recesses 
illuminates umpteen flaws 
inversely 
provides balm for forsaken...

If we could read the minds of others, we would end up deaf

Future is unforeseen and inescapable

Old age  expels  the judgement

Intelligence and stupidity are often closely associated

Flashes of thought are expressed without thunder...

A momentary tingle in feelings
A handful of fond memories
A sudden gust of strong wind
The inevitable snapback

The lapse of a single moment
A fleeting glimpse of a future
A balled up strand of hair
The inescapable passage of time...

Slam.
Closed, the door locked,
bolts bolted,
window sash fused, 
window sash fused.

Vehement and implacable,
the wind scowls
gouging an inescapable path,
splitting and cracking,
branches ache,  
binds break,
white flag quivers.

Why resist?
surrender!...

They altered her name to match with his'. 
They changed her biological parents to avoid interclan. 
Everyone said that it's customary and she has to get down to it. 
She quivered like a withered leaf on a cold winter's night - couldn't escape the chillness....

You have to show your great charms to us
You have that I know
You give that grin
And all I can see is the world light up
You share that to us
You have that in you
The inexplicable, irresistible, inescapable delightfulness
Pizzazz, magnetism, charisma
You have it
Share
Won’t you?...

you have coils like a snake
ready to spring at any threat
yet elegant in your danger

your grip is inescapable
infused with warmth from the
seething volcano
within

soothing,
comforting even

especially when
my legs are wrapped around your body
and your fangs are on my neck...

The hardness of my seat aches my back
My chest tightens and my heart beats louder and louder,
Can those around me hear it?
Fatigue and heaviness begin to take over
Now unmotivated and tired, I drift away
Letting myself fall into a shallow but inescapable comfort,
“I shall do it tomorrow…”...

Believing there is an answer-

Is like tossing my coins into an inescapable maze. 

Instead of waiting hopefully-

I can choose to approach this sadness with curiosity. 

Because in trying to run away- 

I am scattering pain in my wake. 

So that all that is left-

Is a numbness that keeps me idle....
