There are symmetries in nature
created for deeper purposes.
They delight, tease and inflame us 
- oh, nature is diabolical....

Misname it
             Game it
           Shame it
             Inflame it

            Maim it
              Defame it
            Blame it
              Disclaim it...

Oh, lovely and adored one...
descend as a star
over the top of a pine
to hear my guitar!
  

Oh, Lovely and adored one...
let love inflame us 
as the moon wanders alone
amid haze and clouds!...

Some words we say are ill-conceived,
and once spoken can’t be retrieved.
If our words inflame,
we should feel shame,
and feel remorse toward those peeved.

Intellectual larceny
the academic elite
Immune from indictment
inured and effete
They swing their false knowledge
like weapons to maim
The truth left in ashes
— their lies to inflame

Notre Dame
  now maimed
terror's imprint
  hate proclaimed

Notre Dame
  ravaged, lame
intolerance aflame
  for shame, for shame

Notre Dame
  great holy name
fearful to blame
  ~ to the world inflame


Not for the ND contest...

A gaming aim is hardly for the lame
A real shame a gamer makes life as tame

A firing ball of flame gives him the blame
A group all came to make a final claim

A cool branded name offers up some fame
A life in frame to fit in all the same....

Let your words always be sincere
Not abrasive words bent to inflame or cause dissension;
Often, man spews forth words as heat seeking missiles,
Enlisting the tongue for their launching pad;
Forgo the rhetoric that has no usefulness
beyond invading the silence of my space;...

“Free weight verses”
said the Poet …
“that’s what I’m about

“Working out heavy
 every word
 lifting pain and doubt 

“Supersets
with more then less
exhaustion waits to claim

“The final rep
the lasting burn
— forever to inflame”

Draw a stick figure 
future - diminished
and virus ransomed.

Paint the landscape
with the sweltering glare
of global warming.

Come share this
with me - let kisses heal and
soft whispers inflame.

Some locks need two keys
to open, some heavens can
be reached by mortals....

Let me deal with this alone,
Love’s a trap at its cruel form. 
Life could have been better if we’re to choose,
Guess thy nicotine- lips were my best excuse,
Subtle hand holding,
Ousted by the feeling you inflame,
Kissing behind closed doors,
In this place of empty hearts, sadness out-pours....

the shift no Adam
not a goofy frozen stiff
but a real shift
one you might hate
the one you want off
the one sent around 
a conscience booster shot
that will inflame
the poor kid's heart


conspicuous waddle
thinking
while trying to juggle



A talent type show
using blah blah blah,
blah...

sleeplessness appears

to increase stress
short-term, chronic
inflame the worsening

overstimulation in mindfulness
or
laughter
the emotional factor

wound healing
optimists

selves as our
physical
bodies rigorous in trial
contrast principles  but seeking
circulation
impairs the wise choice...

ON LOVE

Love is a gunpowder that will inflame
It will develop into a huge fire
Yet nobody truly understands it, 
It is also shared security, 
Should be mutual 
and if there’s an iniquity it also should be forgiven. 
Love is a dedication between good and bad. 
Love is not perfect because humans are weak....

There could be soft spots in this earthly sojourn, 
But all agree that there are arid zones
That sear and inflame your bones, 
Times you wouldn't want for a second relived; 
The diamond rocks in the flesh of butter, 
Occasions on which the claws of fate engulfed
And tentacles of hard luck mercilessly ground....

Niche a new norm,
Expect to be;
Wise in your form.
Media savvy;
Expand your hits,
Do what you feel;
Inflame byte bits,
Assign swift deal.
Charm can be cold,
Hurts style and grip;
Aim vain control,
Rise with each trip;
Meet your own fare,
See beyond wares.

Were you at one with yourself
while writing it

Did the beginning
have an end

Did each word describe,
or then inflame

What light
can only bend

Did you gag
on meaning bundled

Were you trapped
behind its door

Were you—are you
self-professed

Does truth still ask
for more

A court required parents
To amend their baby’s name.
He can’t be called Messiah
For to some, it might inflame.

Messiah’s age is seven months;
He lives in Tennessee.
I guess for savior wannabes,
It’s not the place to be.

The laws are different state to state,
So parents should take heed – 
If your state rejects Messiah,
It’s a miracle you’ll need....

The color of the beating necessity of life and hope. A rose’s petals tender as a kitten’s purr.

A ripened strawberry on an exotic and amorous night, a chance taken. 

A cherished heirloom endowed by the love of another for those who have not arrived yet. 

A color of love and life-force that can inflame the future and free it from what has been shed in the past....

It could raise all this.
Or it may inflame that.
As Your vision spins
both ears start to flap.

So, hold on a minute.
No need to act fast.
Knowing those are risks.
Don't burn out and crash.

These Magical pills
smell like bad fishy trash.
Just take another hit
but pony up the cash.

Say, it gives You the chills.
With a gray itchy rash.
May erase this.
And deflate that....

the incoherence of affection 
i have begged to claim me
but has failed and let the mists clear
why couldn't I lust and strive
for it would be kinder than love
this cursed virtue
that bids me stay selfish need
sweet incoherence inflame me!
at least then I can say I tried
when he leaves me here alone
as is now my wish also
as my soul has found a twin
and now it lives for him
no longer me...

Trimmed branches of remnant thought
Clutter the aisles of awakening
Gather passing particles of doubt
Struggle like a constrained tumbleweed.

A spark of truth, an errant idea,
Could ignite the entire maelstrom
Inflame a life’s mis-spent passion
Release the firestorm of hope.

Soft eyes a-flutter seize the flame
bathe in the searing purity
of vision without fear
of action without shame.
