Short Inhabits Poems

An animal carival
Inhabits his fantasy zoo,
Lion,elephant & kangeroo-
Hearing other composer's phrase
Into his imagination we gaze.

Tribute to Saint-Saens...

shyness
         handsome and so fine
         gorgeous and body sublime
         inhabits one

Ivory snow covers
The desolate castle
She inhabits
Where the stillness
Screams & screams
And she feels the fright
Of silence 
And she loathes herself
For her vulnerability...

Li’l robin-- 
on the palm
of my 
sweet rose, 

from the great 
jealousy of an old oak tree, 
imitating in grace

the whirling 
dance 
of the dervish, then awhile, it inhabits
the bard’s nest....

Veni, vidi, vici
Julius conquers us
The imperators' command and rule
Inflation and decay ends Roman Britain
Their legacy inhabits our grammar
Should reigns supreme
Over would and could...

Oh my spirit, my soul!
 that dwells in me ad eternal,
why didn't you plead with me to die
at least every thousand years
and with prior notice!?
why do you carry me  to die thus
 that way without warning and with
almost always less than a hundred years... ! °...

WOOD-FOX, A SCULPTURE

The fox has drawn a circle
around herself. Deep-red 
rich as mahogany. Who carved
these eyes so they etch
a silence in the room
as we go about our reading?
She inhabits a stillness 
between the words, a quiet 
that survives underneath....

Hear this
follow me-
I will make you,
your heart's desire,by faith
come true-
Good news,
a free gift
joy,peace and grace-
forgiveness inhabits
sin's place-
know this
sacrifice,
once and for all,
hark,love's small voice within
you,calls

If I could
if they let me.
truly I say to you!
I would expel the rifle
that inhabits my unconscious,
would deflate all tricks,
unused
would deflect everything
impossible to savor me
in full consciousness...
I would abandon the spiritual void
to live naked
and full for love...!...

My lawn those pesky cwitters inhabits.

   There are thwongs and thwongs of bunny wabbits!

      They're so very numerwous,

         It is almost humerwous.

            'Tis due to their proliferwate habits!

I want to break free -

from this confining shell that

my soul inhabits, 

warmed by the sun, cooled by winds

beyond      the clouds      and soaring

hair-trigger
immediate
quick tempered
reactions to continuing 
emotional disturbances  
created an ongoing atmosphere 
were the inhabits found themselves
easily angered over the slightest little thing 
which caused a disruption within the lives 
of the individuals who resided within...

There's one thing I've noticed about rabbits

   And that's their very prolific habits

      Their birth rate they could reduce

         Should Brer Hare Cease to seduce

            And banned from places Miz Hare inhabits

The power you acquire is bound to destroy you 
When not in rhythm with the force that inhabits 
You are beyond the physical that seems to rule 
That which resides within has superior authority 
It must be obeyed or catastrophes result 
To the detriment of those who challenge the force
From where the mundane was created for fun...

Blah blah blah
What is with this lovey dovey stuff?
I have become the single most annoying,
Breathing creature that inhabits
This crazy world.
You know what?
I may be pathetically sappy,
And romantic,
And oh heaven forbid I'm happy,
So I'm sorry I'm annoying you.
The funniest,
Most ironic thing of all this is...
I've become someone I used to hate....

“She is black and white,”
she is my wintry queen-angel.
She inhabits the icy cold cavernous spaces
in my mind. She feeds me Turkish delights.
She drives her dogsled through my heart at midnight,
her expression frigid, her eyes like piercing icicles
Her wolves howling with every crack of the whip.
She is crazy. She is awesome. She is evil.
SHE IS MY ABOMINABLE
SNOW MISTRESS...

Mama taught me to remember the celebrations 
The ninth spoke to me
Remember me
Remember him, who sits alone
with his purple urn
Her ashes, not the same
The clinks and cheers,
a shame
Her lips would sip from his glass
He’d plant a kiss
The honor, we miss
Now, near her frame, her smile inhabits
the room, but mama’s presence
is ash, contained
Wedded bliss so missed

No cows to look at
I hear the truck traffic

Everything changes like clouds
The page this poem is on burns

Coming from the funeral with friends
Talking on the telephone

No trucks to grind their gears
I hear the minute hand moving

Birds and people inhabit the earth
A black bear inhabits the earth, too

A rock in the sun
Calligraphy brush

In a mind there is apocalypse
No one can hear it...

Release the victory of my heart; I seek the most.
Evaluate my soul’s contentment, so secured.
Let me live the life I was destined to breath.
Examine my mind the dreams are lying round.
Attack the entity that inhabits my personality.
Seal my trepidation; release my equanimity.
Examine my fantasy; allow its reality out.

Mine is a battle, inconceivable within this time.
Evangelical intervention, I wait for my genesis....

clementine through the clouds
a gentle shower of shine

not blinding, but binding
droplets of a restraining eye

so like a passing surname
a sign inhabits the Summer day

hour upon hour of aimless thought
of a most gracious heavenly soul

she had peace as I struggled
my mom dying from same ill

clementine through the clouds
melting like orange sherbert

my eyes taste its pleasant hue
my head in the cotton puffs, soothed
...

Through her filmy eyes, 
scanning the daylight hues, 
wary of what lies in wait around the corner 
or what might slip up behind a lean back. 
The icy freeze that racks her  body 
down below weakened spine, 
causes her to search frantically 
for unseen glow in the faces around ;
while she struggles to remember
exactly where home inhabits
a vision leaving the clarity of her mind.

MY MUSE ©

Oath with my indelible INK
INK flows like BLOOD
BLOOD runs through my VEINS
VEINS keeps me alive/ANIMATE
ANIMATE to write till all ink dries UP
UP until all the lexis are GONE
GONE till my heart ANSWERS
ANSWERS to that which am called-TO,
TO a divine clarion call,
CALLED to elevate the moon out of her SPHERE
SPHERE of the imaginary inhabits MY MUSE©
MY MUSE© will never desert me

She inhabits every corner of my mind, like wild spring flowers overtaking the meadow, she consumes me, yet she doesn't know that my heart yearns for her love, my arms ache for her soft embrace and my lips long to taste every inch of her, but she can't know this, must never know this for if she did I would lose my best friend, my soul mate, my reason to wake every morning and make it through the day.


this is my first attempt, feedback would be appriciated...

I
If space is empty, just nothing, total void -
How can our best minds admit "space is curved"?

II
O the space that inhabits even carnal flesh
More space between organs, atoms than ... what's dense

III
I'll die and return to dust, education makes me think -
Spirit says, "NO THING connects through NO THINK"

IV
My mind is awareness ever, never in my brain
Mind is Supreme Space kidnapped by THE thoughts-train.

You should rest
Try not to unfold
Do your best 
Not to grow old
Sing as though
You will never
Speak again
Accompany me
As though 
You were a stranger
And not a friend
Talk to me
As if whispers
Could never be reached
Accept all 
That others will not
Soon you will know 
There is 
No time left
Honor yourself
Become the man
That inhabits
The colorless strands
The vacancy at hand 
Relax
Enjoy the awe 
The scent 
Of a blind mans
Fragrance...
