Short Mechanism Poems

Wall goes quickly up,
Shielding fragile inner self,
Safety sought within.

Pleasure.
Ecstasy.  Euphoria.
Positive feedback mechanism.
Art.  Music.  Literature.  Appreciation.
Pleasure....

God's mechanism
for flushing impurities
from my soul.
If troubled by this,
think of me
as perspiring heavily
from the eyes....

Memory engulfs us,
          absorbs, regurgitates...
          but never returns
          the true feeling
          purport
          of reality......

Maybe it's the bad boy attraction 
Maybe it's the need to spice up her life
Maybe it's the fire of her self defence mechanism 
That keeps her tangled in his angle...

REFUSAL TO DUCK

Tucker sits on lawn chair sipping his pop.
Two bullet holes like flies land on backdrop.
A retired mechanism.
He’s done with tourism.
He’s a sitting duck in front of a shop.

Tiny dancer
upon the air
flits and flaps
buzzing slaps
of wings against
a light breeze.

A wind-up toy,
a filling station
for nature’s nectar
a buzzing
fluttering
mechanism of
delightful
elation, 
is
a
hummingbird.

... those who “no”, don’t speak…
... those who don’t “no”... can do anything…

A mechanism persistent
Expose machinations consistent
With hidden truths…
Bits of Data Access the CRUD
Breaking it down into fluid roots
Morphotic frame.works to reboot......

wrench in a 
well oiled machine
whenever someone 
enters into this environment 
unaware of the way in which 
things work around here 
causing a malfunction within 
the gears causing a break down 
of the mechanism that cause the 
engine to work properly...

I live with my words,
It’s a defense mechanism.
A coping strategy,
Like a good mannerism.
These expressive views,
Never go out of style.
I can scream thoughts
They run for a mile.
Close to certainty
Not to perfection
But my crazy words
Are close to a million…...

WHERE DO

VIVID EXPERIENCES LIE,

WITHIN THE HEARTS,

OF HUMANS GONE BORED?

AS THE SYSTEMATIC MECHANISM

OF SOCIETY HYPNOTIZES,

BUT, NEVER THE

EVER WAKING SOUL WITHIN.

The spoken word is a harbinger of hope.
A mechanism to mitigate my melancholic mind.
I wish nothing more than to spew words of wisdom
While I tell my stories to the stars,
Hoping that my words echo onto the morning sky
And remain written in the clouds for all to see....

understanding some
is the key in our pocket
if not then we're lost

the key's an anvil
a fulcrum or a lever
multi purpose tool

to shape knowing by
into a mechanism
to better ourselves

by liberation
from thoughts emotions and deeds
of self and others

In the moment
Potent
Our doing
Being vaporising
There is a chasm
Bcoz the mechanism
Has a doer doing
Contorting & limiting

Who is he we ask
Getting to the task
Of elimination
Another ego precipitation 
A fool
In a whirlpool
The clown
Inevitably drowns

The walls that we build around
Help us and keep us sound
And the hurt won’t get through
It is a mechanism that works when you do

But to cut yourself off from all
May mean that you would fall
For you are not an island 
And need interaction with others to stand.

Like a beam of light that changes night to day, you too must make a difference in all that you do in life. Life is all about changers...either you are the mechanism for change or your an acceptor or complainer...and things remain the same. No man has ever completed a journey standing in one spot....

Creating a novel mechanism 
Time wasted will be added to age

How wonderful it will be
Long sleepers will be older

Time wasters retire early
Salary equating time wastage

Publishing an annual list 
Earning them even a medal
Hardly worked prize for them
Oscar for ignominy...

The
wedding
is supreme
occidental 
mechanism to control other’s body.
When desire tends to be problematic,
to libido
we give the
order
then.
That order is marriage, monogamy,
and faithfulness.
That is the
desired
truth.

What a hidden force
               conveyed that taste
                  so bitter...
                What mechanism detonated
                this sudden melancholy ...
                What a phenomenon created
                 this doubt in me,
                 what memory  invented
                 this tear ...!?...

Nothing and something
Empty and full
Everything is when I say so
No, when I think so 
Wait -- no, when I feel so

Could desire be the father and perception be the mother?
It could even be all one mechanism; one motion
One dance: projections, reflections and impressions
Meanings -- only known to me

Atop an inverted pyramid
A seismic shift in brain chemistry takes place
Channelling all mojo into a spiralling funnel
Bottom of it a mirage of an alluring treat
An inedible slice of chocolate cake
There a chocoholic dwells

This mid-crisis coping mechanism exits in vain
Worshipped till another fascinating self-revelation sets in...

Another way to cope
To hide the pain, to learn
Does it even really matter
That we do not know my name?

Another front to hide behind
Pretend you’re someone new
With emotions alternate  
Than crestfallen, pretend I love me too 

But you’re a lifeguard with your words
Saving little things
And pieces of my life I lost
In another mechanism...

the mechanism
to operationalize
and test so called truth's

a psychology
not evolutionary
or human nature

but liberation
freedom from conscious content
that is of not-self

but of engagement
while self is contemplation
of consciousness freed

from thoughts and feelings
nothing remaining of weight
just transform of life

ghastly gluttony 

one of seven deadly sins
with appalling good reasons

total self disrespect 
abusing one's own body
that wonderful mechanism

no remorse no thought
millions starving and dying

balancing haves and have nots
