Fates transmuted

Beguiled by the labium

of disaster; as it emanates

fallacies of mirth;

a vagary unattainable...

Light-hearted, humorous, a five line delight
Great fun to be sure
Sadness they cure
I may be prolific but I'm still a neophyte...

Foreign Policy Neophyte

Even though Trump is Caucasian and white,
He still is known as foreign policy neophyte;
Knew from beginning,
That he was sinning;
Makes us remain insane and also up tight.

Limericks are quite popular on this poetry site
Light-hearted, humorous, a five line delight
Great fun to be sure
Sadness they cure

flickering awareness that comes and goes
both reveals and conceals deep hidden truth
each neophyte then affirms as valid
enigmatic glimmers of light they’ve seen
who then proclaim the path to be trodden 
blindly followed by those who’re yet asleep...

  G'DAY  

Al oh!  Yes, That's me.  .
Come on man, share with others your
Reason for wanting to be on this team
Oh! I guess I love rhyme and metre and as for
Syllables, I love to count 'em. Haiku and stuff
That's it in a nutshell – what's that you say. Did
I, Al, a neophyte, inadvertently write an Acrostic 
poem.
Crazy! Man. Just crazy!...

Soma nectar soothing, suffusing form
Scintillating currents swathe us in swarms
No name assigned, nomad knowing nature
Negating nothing, neophyte mature
Benign searing bliss spike, softens stature
Vaporised self, seeks but God in silence
Ignition illumining innocence

I thought I was never
A neophyte in lovemaking
Surely my bedroom prowess
Was a gift of providence

Gone were my floundering, lecherous
Smoldering inhibitions

Sadly my dolorous bombastic
Evaluation of my carnal skills
Was greatly overrated

Unfortunately I came
To this conclusion
Much too quickly

Am a stargazer...
Born during winter..
Born as nocturnal..
Born as ideal..

Am a stargazer..
This month of December..
Am the masterpiece..
The master of peace..

Am a stargazer..
Born as neuter..
Not a neophyte..
Born to fight..

Am a stargazer..
They’ll remember..
With perfect recipe..
Blended perfectly..

Am a stargazer..
A dream catcher..
A little soldier..
An early riser..

AM REUBEN-A STARGAZER...

A lecherous neophyte he preyed
upon their folded hands and closed eyes
bathed in their dolorous mumblings
sated himself on their penitential inhibition

Left them to flounder hopelessly - adrift
drowning in his vitriolic bombast
a hard burning scent of incense
left to smolder in their souls

for Providence had delivered them - to him

If you’re a political neophyte,
Then hear my words and hear them well.
A politician always lies.
There is no truth in him to tell.

You’ve a choice of bad or even worse,
And very little in between.
Since Honest Abe there have been few
Who weren’t controlled by a machine.

A machine controlling him with cash
That wants everything to go its way.
No matter how you vote, you’ll gnash
Your teeth and rue your choice some day....

Overly possessing the karma, 
you sail in meditation.
Does creation tag along 
the destruction of self ?

The chain persists. You leave 
the theater. The ancient 
voice gives the soft resoundings.

Something was always left 
to say. The neophyte will 
not speak. The arms 
were overreaching.

Take hold of the window.
Some light will have deep 
penetration. Edge was very
sharp. Pack up your belongings.

Earth goals no longer grip our attention,
although we play out our role as ordained,
positioned in the void of cessation,
feeling compassion for fellow souls stained,
in whose hearts love is yet to be ingrained.
Such is the case, although we do admit,
this neophyte is far from the summit,
yet having vaporised, empty within,
heart to throb of love, readily submits,
feeling magnetic bliss heat on our skin.

EUPHORIA

her words initiate a sensational scent - participants
        revel and relate. the classroom’s succulent infusion
            follows the neophyte teacher to her car. the stimulant
            on the gas, the steering like a Caribbean high. her spirit
         like a tango partner - swirling, dipping, and like a coaster -
rolling, twisting. the idyllic, breathtaking rush of endorphins.
