You can't run away from the ashes
—as their memory burns from within
(June, 2020: University Of Pennsylvania Hospital)
Dark rock creatures creep
half-submerged in clouded tide. . .
no escape from night
For Raul Moreno's Ghost Tide contest
~ Written with a certain poetess in mind. ~
we can't run away from ourselves ~ there's no place our hearts can escape
us
Hummingbird feeding
on droopy, purple blossom...
no escape for bugs.
Entered in Raul Moreno's contest,
" Daily Ritual "
The leopard can't escape the zoo
No matter how much he has plotted
I'm guessing that the reason was
Because he'll always be spotted!
A homeless man
with a cell phone
connected to his pain
Desperation
on his speed dial
—muted inhumane
(30th Street Station: November, 2023)
The worst part of this mystery,
when the body dies and the soul is free,
they'll be no peace in the psychic sea,
because I'll still be stuck with ME.
Dark hole,
No escape,
Thrash around in my sleep…
Scream,
Awaken from my slumber.
Must break free,
Veiling memories,
Help me escape from-
Me.
Form:
Walks on the line of ineptness
Treacherous and unstable footing
Pain is the fuel for complacency
Tortured, but unbreakable
The location of no escape
Dreams seem so real
The truth they conceal
You're sure you're about to die
There is no escape
That's how you feel
Wake up ~ in your bed you lie
Exploding Shockwaves.
Collapsing in upon itself- the death of a magnificent star
Now births a black hole.
Caught in the gravitational pull
There is no escape
A heavy ear
an empty heart
Breathless voice
with eyes that dart
Love forsaken
rebirthing pain
Hope redundant
—lost refrain
(The New Room: January, 2024)
Apparently
Words..all words
Are empty and full..
And that statement
Is empty and full
As is this one..
Apparently
No escape
Is available...
She celebrates love
"And a sword will pierce your heart"
A sure prophecy
And so I can smile
What goes around comes around
there is no escape
Eileen Manassian
Bright
sunlit
angels call
forth in a dream
there is no escape from the light of God
He paints dreams on his canvas of verdict
never once flawed
or disturbed
into
Dark
sharp knives
harsh events
so broken and bent
no escape available
till the light of love blooms to lighten your gloom
and only then does bitterness become bearable
The walls are closing in
There’s no escape this time
Trying to break free
Something holding back
Darkness
Ever increasing, all consuming
There’s no where to go, but in.
He couldn't stand her temper tirades
She ranted and raved about bills left unpaid
A tragic couple they were, a perfect mismatch ~
Their marriage contract containing no escape hatch
The speaker
Is challenged..by
Impossibility..
One word spoken
Speaks of
Separation..
Even to say
Not-two..is two..
Apparently
No escape
From two..
Apparently...
There is no escape of love
you can't run away
because love is so deep
it's not an easy game to play
but a human without love
can't live for one day
in this complicated life
that will end anyway
no escape
from this day
this cold air
wraps me
in its grasp
relentlessly
the only relief
i foresee
are adrift
in thoughts
of you
that bring
some warmth
my way
this horrid
january day
Listen to poem:
I'm poised to deliver a singularity,
a pithy black hole,
a spot from which there's no escape
once key or pen is lifted;
It's terminal - period:
Wait for it! The End is nigh!
There, it's done .
volcanic blast
krakatoa unleashed hell
pyroclastic mass
obliterated
rampant nature’s destruction
world of deep darkness
a seismic event
magma nightmare no escape
pure devastation
No escape
From the
Show of shows~
Of which we are
Characters not
Recognizing the
Staging~
A gift of emptiness
Which is not a gift
May be waiting
In the wings~
Yet no escape~~
Poet’s sleep
with their memories
to hate or to love
Voices unanswered
the night’s
turtledove
Darkness remembers
what daylight
forgets
As dreamers
reenter
— what twilight begets
(Dreamsleep: April, 2018)
