Premium Member Chicago in the 21st Century

  	City of Big Shudders
           Once known for Big Shoulders

         Powerful barge lost her rudder
           Withered… stooped… inexorably older

Premium Member The Week Winds Down

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

The High Melt

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

Observations

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

Premium Member Wakeful Night in Ashton

I was awakened by the cuckoo
inexorably lusciously jeweled
and to a bobcat pantingly passing
enlivened ashton spirits
beauteous unfruitful rhythmic
respite

Premium Member Strangers in the Night

Are you glad that we two met in someone's dorm room - alcohol and youth and us, strangers in the night? A course of pain and pleasure, inexorably set - do you regret we're not strangers in the night?

Premium Member A Predilection For the Helping Professions

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

In the Name of Peace

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.

Premium Member Time

‘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.

Love, version 1: reflections on personal experiences of love, inspired by reading bell hooks

Wounded by its lack
Distrustful of it 
Inured to its absence 
In thrall to its allure
Fooled by its simulacrum
Estranged from it 
Paralysed by fear of losing it
Inexorably exposed to it 
Resolved against it 
Consumed by longing for it
A scholar to its foreign texts 
A slave to its compulsions 
Compelled to search for it
Forever 
Hopeful

Submersion

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.

Pompeii

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

Wind Voyager

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.
