An old man set in his ways
He picks up cigar smoking
Good luck getting him to quit
He's intransigent

 It is a death
 in and of itself
 giving death 
 no meaning
 just part of the
 inexorable routine
 while the words
 eat themselves...

Serene in silence 
nature's solemn dignity
inspiring passion
inexorable to time
barricade of permanence

A random walk, yet
entropy dictates my course
forever downward.

Others may curse
this inexorable decline
yet I embrace it.

For in my passing
the seeds of new life are sown
the cycle goes on....

With a nod from the heavens
The seasons tangle
Eternity shifts again
Falling leaves settle annon
A last windswept rustling
Proof that peace is usurped 
And replaced with the divine 
Truth read in vapors
Of inexorable darkness...

Can you recall when vividly colored hues drenched the sights of life?
Elation from light that appeared as sky’s streaming gilded wonder,
Made steadily dulled from its owed inexorable demise
To which, our beloved innocence fell so quickly asunder....

i drove the car close to the edge 
i looked into the abyss 
in truth it did look into me 
what it saw i know not 
what i saw was raw love 
wrestling the dominatrix of pure oblivion 
inexorable gravity took hold of my lapels 
in slow motion i went home...

Time passes
long wait...
And none of us
arrives at the appointment...
the watch of life
still loose
unmarked
the final moment...
But the inexorable fear
is looking for me
of our yearnings...
And we, when
we finally arrive...!
To our destination......

Inexorable 
                                   Leaving unavoidable
                                     Impressions in life
                              Do not let escape from your
                               Hands a fraction of minute

Reduced to nuggets of the dacoit time
Under the burden of spent splendour
Shattered silhouette in a shabby corner
The inexorable skeleton of lovely life 
Entreats the Grim Reaper for mercy 
Daffodils look at you in trembling awe

I write several poems,
to dialogue with life
before she breaks the strings
and slam her face into the empty walls.
I write to avoid the stars
fall apart over things that didn't happen...
I write about sadness
and about joys
so that inexorable shadows
erase all memory...
and make everything brutal...!...

A voice that’s been lost to time,
Yet still ever-present in this mind of mine.
Its resonance seems fresh to my ears,
Merely this ushers forth a multitude of tears.

How can such a plenty of years not lessen
Or wear thin the fabric of recollection 
To make this old loss seem more tolerable,
This all seems so inexorable....

As we enter another lockdown
for the third wave of this inexorable
pandemic, with new variants appearing
almost daily, and vaccination is progressing
hesitantly, while our school children are going
to remote again, and the ICU’s on the verge of over
flowing, I just can’t help wondering if the seventh  wave
will be a tsunami....

An assailing bursts from a mind turned sinister, 
Buoyed by a madness that cares solely for gratification.
Unsuspecting is the defenseless victim, who is forced to 
Submit to demands of pain and perversion that will forever be 
Etched in a mind as an inexorable eclipse fixable only by hope’s light....

As fall begins its inexorable grip on earth, and I,
Unhealthy thoughts again rise heavy to the fore
Torturing the short-lived happiness of summer; gone.
Ugly, dark, and god-forsaken days lay threateningly ahead;
Melancholy deepens as each one all too slowly fades away.
Nowhere to go inside me, or without; darkness will, I'm sure, prevail....

Time pass in an inexorable pace.
Leaving some times many unfinished
projects.
Seize every day of your life. 
Every second of life is priceless.

The eternity is not for mortals.
Someday, you will cross the threshold
to after life.
Grab time. Dont wait until you are
in a grave.
It would be too late for reach the
stars.

She felt the soft brush of the grass
upon her fingers as she tripped
amongst the lazy Spring meadow.
Her faint flesh blush, vibrant, aglow
from the sweet cider she had sipped
of the long forbidden wineglass.
The moist dew trailed along her wrist
as the morning haze draped her gown
exposing her delicate youth
and the inexorable truth;
it’s easy for a girl to drown
in love’s first forbidden soft kiss.

Life lives in the veins of hope 
The hope cultivates the future 
Future is the immortal child of the hope
 So let's hope to beget the immortality

All shall be very soon 
But the soon is not boon
Swooned all, in sudden lost
Re-hope exposes the host

Procrastination!-
The fatal fate of the soon 
Time!-
Inexorable goon!
Slowly it baffles all
In the end suits normal

Somewhere you are a shining star
Before the lens of strangers' telescope
A new scion of the god of war
The reason for the father
At the end of the dangling rope
He did not want it like this anyway
So little of our life is plan
And so much is fate
A plan brings souls to meet their destiny
Set already by inexorable fate
That made the gulf between 
The two of you
Though in his heart you are always seen
As a special, and intervening star....

one vow
one order
one blow
here inexorable from you
my love

show me the way
with chains 
these shackles so cold
and passionate
my love

you promised
and here we are
together forever 
'til death do us part'
my love

it's been such a long time
since i paid for your mistakes
do you see us there?
smiling
my love

you thought you got away
but here we are again! 
no running! besides;
this knife is so sweet
my love
