colour now mellow 
seeps inexorably -
stains my mind...

Life runs inexorably
  flows without pause, gradually
 - through the drains of time......

Time passes inexorably
       never late or early
     does not expand or refund
       any time......

An Increase in Girth
Leads Inexorably to---  
  A Decrease in Mirth
       ********  
 Or is it the Reverse?...

inexorably
     inevitably
     irrevocably
     the week winds down
     like an old-fashioned
     wristwatch
     time for
     the hands
     to rest...

The high melt waters rush
Feeding springs annual event
As over the ancient rock
Water tumbles effervescent
As it heads inexorably to the sea
In its headlong descent...

slime travel

joyous explorers
                       inexorably spreading
                                                    nature’s mucus trail

Nature Wakes
Earth turns
Each day dawns anew
Memories enhance views

Time
Inexorably weathers and wethers 
 Why wonders
When  nears
Where changes wanderlust
Satisfaction soothes
Together triumphs...

I have a predilection 
      for the helping professions
      As well, for artistic self-expression

      I'll take my leave with this confession
      Other 'pursuits' are no more than repression
         ~ That lead inexorably to depression...

As long as we continue to accept 
the screaming of ‘allahu akbar’
in praise of those who gleefully
remove the heads of men,
whilst at the same time choosing to ignore 
the fact that the name of Jesus Christ 
is heard most often in the context of a curse;
then we are gradually, but inexorably,
handing over our future to the enemy....

‘Tis true, time waits for no man, but moves swiftly along
     Age to eon, in big laps or small, time is never retrievable
          Once gone it can never be recaptured, even in song
               Moving inexorably forward into realms unbelievable.

Rain fell inexorably down, 

filling every ginnel and spit

'til all was a blanket, a crown, 

and naught projected up from it.

 

Beneath were clock towers and tall

surfaces, drifting with foam, 

buildings once rife with activity

now silent, no longer a home

 

'cept for fishes and floating debris,

hives not humming with energy,

still as a grave....

We moved inexorably 
towards idiocracy
we slipped without grip 
towards dependency
We prayed filled with nothing 
but false ecstasy
we crept towards our death 
instinctively
We lived as slaves
fully and intentionally

We are Pompeii, Herculaneum
the ones who filled
the stadium
Called for pitiless blood 
to warmly run
worshiped bearded men 
and starry sun
causation, ruination
living and dead...

Headlong you rush towards your 
perceived, intended destination.
Eager to reach the journey's end.

Forgetful of an indifferent grave that 
awaits with a cold embrace of dirt
offering scant, uneasy comfort.

Speeding, racing, hurtling through
the hours, days, months, years –
inexorably pursued by relentless time.

Oh, intolerant, weak creature!
How you are haunted by this 
undeniability:

Dying 
You are, from the moment of your
birth....

So feather light is my soul today
That one kind breath of a word from you 
Sends me flurrying high with the breeze,
Carrying, extolling Creation's secret wisdom,
As the golden dandelion
Entrusts her children to the billowing,
Willow-swaying
Zephyrs.

I yield to the wonder of the warm wind’s caress,
My love pirouetting toward you,
Inexorably
Supporting my heart’s glad intention
To grow tall,
Strong;
To thrive within your rich, 
Welcoming, earthy
Abundance....
