The inconvenience store

I went to the Co for shopping
Their food box got my brain popping.
It was a huge puzzle
great fuss and much fuzzle
to save my wrist from a chopping!

Extremes

Knowledge, freedom, acceptance
Ignorance, subjugation, resistance
The extremes of our existence

Caring, loving, devotion
Insensitivity, hate, revulsion
The extremes of our emotion

Faith, repentance, salvation
Disbelief, narcissism, damnation
The extremes of our creation

Authentic Again

Darkness cascades, 
When dawn fades.
Reigning is rare
Until dusk spades
Into depth of faiths,
Not a day but decades.
Insensitivity impairs
But care repairs
Authenticity is supreme
It's not just in my dream
Anymore on just lash's rim.
Rebirth is not a flair,
It cleaves through twilight
Like an ineffable beam
Form: Lyric

Acts of Kindness

Affectionate approach
Compassionate comportments
Timely Thankfulness
Solacing suffering souls

Obliging orphans
Forgiving fakers

Kindling kindness
Ignoring insensitivity
Nourishing the needy
Digesting displeasure
Nurturing necessitous
Embracing enemies
Selfless sharing and
Sometimes simple smile

Sensitivity

Anyone insensitive 
to others problems,
inevitably displays
an insensitivity 
to very own needs.

Such one instinctively
is hypocritical in deeds.
And actually thrives
in pernicious ways 
of life and living.

Mould the desire
and the sensitivity in me.
To assist and comfort
the less privileged,
the hurting and oppressed.
My God and Saviour.

My Promise

Truth can be hurtful
Aw! I know it's spiteful!
Insensitive even
But I don't know to speak otherwise
Never learned to, probably never will.
So here is my promise;
To upset you with the truth
Since you are wise, I believe
You will understand
Change maybe!
And I will be sorry later
Not for telling it
Only for breaking you
With its insensitivity
But generally grateful
For my honesty

There are people with whom
One might disagree at certain levels.
The dividing levels might even be ones
Of insensitivity, discouragement,
And even hurtfulness.

Notwithstanding such disagreements,
One might yet endorse and support
Such a one on other, more vital levels.

In so doing, one should see it, not as
a conflict of interest, but rather as
a higher view of the big picture.

The Devil I Knew

My eyes watered
from the sulfurous stench of your disdain
as you turned those empty eyes my way

My skin crawled 
from the leathery touch of your insensitivity
as your talons absently clawed my flesh

My soul shivered 
from the the cold wind of your indifference
as you flew away on your mighty wings 

The fires that may burn in Hell
to warm a Devil I have not met 
hold no fear for me

For I have lived all these years
in the cold, cold shadow
of the Devil I knew

In Commemoration of Our Defeat

Clinger to the stars
Pulled down by gravity
Beneath are sparrows
Squeeze me to become the warrior

Blindfold me with the darkness
Faze me with pretensions
Shower me with Benjamin
Dry me with ignorance

Kill me with your vocabulary
I’ll bury me with thoughts of you
Let me wear your ring
Wear my weary

We let the seed grow
I water it with tears
Your sunlight is paper
We failed

Throw your hopes up
Veils are for dreamers
Love is the grim reaper
Insensitivity is the winner

Premium Member Commonality

Carefully we planned for the big day 
Oblique qualms and doubts drove me away
Moody and thoughtless insensitivity
Maudlin thoughts curbed the festivity
Onerous thoughts like small transmitters
Now revealed my flutters and flitters
Ashamed, you admitted you had the jitters
Laughingly we both had learned
Intimacy shared is intimacy earned
Treasuring our love, our life unknown
You and I, together we’ve grown.
