Premium Member No Bones About It

The skeleton was a surprise:
a male victim based on bone size.
The public defender
maintained they’d misgendered,
but the chromosome test never lies.

Might mountain
Mostly valued by all,
Mountain contains no stones and grasses
Maintained by all fools
May be I know not the meaning
Mean life mostly climbed.

Her senatorial role she maintained

Once lived with his faithful old beagle.

In a style that was in tents, but regal.

Hungry soul, singing heart,
Believe in the magic of life.

Nirvana

without thoughts "I" ends
maintained for long
Nirvana

Start shedding
Start floating
When you shed it all
You levitate in bliss

More uncluttered mind is
Lighter you feel
Soon you become non-existent
You fly away

Premium Member The Motion

Catch me slipping in the rain
No pain to gain
But somehow it rains and I remained the same
How many of You people could say the same
when it got cold and dark, you maintained your brain 
The world may change, but please remain the same.

Refuge Of Refuges

Secure from behind
This wall in my mind.
Within its refuge, as fine
A maintained garden's.

Unshook by what raw
For voices blow o'er.
At peace with self, there attuned
To what inspires art.
As what, buzzing, as quicksmart
A flower opens.

Moses had a liking for tea
And sipped it crossing the Red Sea
How could the good taste
Be maintained in such haste?
He-brewed the leaves naturally

Author's note: Based on a joke heard at one of the shops in the Old Town section of Scottsdale.

Only when, 

The edifice of happiness,

Is:

And 

Supervised by unselfishness

Withstand the test of time!

Lie

Long has it been maintained,
writing sprang from economic drive and need,
seeing as the cuneiform tablets
were soon interpreted with worldly eyes.

But economics is a stylus scratching lies on clay,
a social science to varnish human selfishness away.

Tread the Earthmen In Pride

To move forward in blindness
plane to plane
to whistle the winded tune
of inspir'd stride
wreckage maintained
coldly
plane to
p l a n e
whirled at the side-stepper in violence
violness
vileness
busy in his own self-sight
is man,
earth's foot upon his chest.

Quietude

QUIETUDE

A pervasive state of stillness and calm
Respectful silence is maintained
No risk of anyone coming to harm
A sense of relaxation gained

Breathe deeply and it will begin
A quiet state both outside and in
Allows for gentle contemplation
A natural flow of inspiration

Premium Member Lies Within

Beauty and Glamour are to be maintained, So that to Shine, to Dazzle and to Flair, Marching unanimously hand-in-hand. The Inner Beauty is more self-contained, Unselfishly with much more time to spare To figure out what constitutes a Man. December 15, 2019

The Truth In Pictures

when i stop to think
i can't believe
what this world
has come down to

we think
we live
we fight
we give

and it all comes down to
what
a picture
in a frame

a life
left un-maintained

but what is it all for
if we never know
what it is
that we are truly willing to die for

Daydream

Red rambling roses.
Pink parading  pansies
Yellow yawning ylang ylang
Scarlet shining strawberries

Gorgeous growing gardenias
Beautiful bending bracken
Lovely lilting lilies
Attractive ambling agapanthus 

Carefully crafted
Meticulously maintained
Fastidiously fashioned
Delightful daydream

Love

Love is something 
That can neither be created 
Nor destroyed 
That can be maintained 
Not only by joy 
And happiness
But by the balance .

It can not be modified 
But can be kept alive 
It can not be bribed 
So it changes path
It follows before heart 
Labelled welcome and
Not Come 
It shutters to invites
