Conditioning
That entangled
Overlay of stories..
Identification
Brings suffering
And desires to
Escape what
Seems broken..
That's how the
Stories go..
Ending when
Stories bloom...

A beat up club with a broken sign
‘Dreamers wanted! Dead or alive. ‘
Blood overlay on the stage,
I could see how it was;
Music pulsating;
Rhythmic visions
penetrate
with the
past.

A
historic flood
forgotten except in
tucked away
newspapers
which a reader
runs across and
due to an assumed
overlay of time
apparently
avoids the freedom
arising as what
is happening~~

The tracks left at our death
Will reveal more than our shoe size.
For in these tracks,
Filings of our lives will be found.
The test facing us then,
Will not see pencil to paper, or voice to air,
But our life as an overlay
On the image of Jesus Christ;
Make each day count.

French Terry Knit Fabric,
I’m comfy overlay-
fibers of yarn on my pale skin,
cozy on Autumn days.
Embroidered silk within,
sleek with burnished and shiny glaze.

Shadowy silver curls of sweat
Beads of pearls along the way
Coats of pink nail polish
With sparkling silver overlay
Easy streets yet broken beats
Of concrete noise in an urban throng
Of despair and hollow noise
Dogs and cats eat the wooden bark
Of coquettish thriving meows
Silver singles, oh yes, us oldies do mingle

large feathery snowflakes gently fall...
a panoramic overlay conceals blurred landmarks...
young lovers walk holding hands
explore untrod virginal snowy paths
beneath a faint watchful moonlight chaperon...

Hippity, Hip, Hooray
A new beginning, a good omen,
Peace among all men, I say,
Prosperity time and time again,
Year full of good cheer aye!
Never any pain or a tear even,
Everlasting happiness overlay
Women, weak and children.
Yesteryear is the past; So let's pray:
Every sunrise henceforth gladden
And brighten our gloomiest day
Restoring our hope and trust, Amen!

We have been reshaping -
brush strokes of vision on a pristine canvas.
This place is an art class for eyes that have yet to see;
an overlay of paint needs washing away.
Whatever is made visible becomes a virtual reality.
Hell is a full bucket spilling over.
The moon will shine as blue and green as the earth
when we have eyes to see it so.

The sunshine band, ember sunset.
Stunning swans' graceful elegance
Serenely swim, one can't forget.
The sunshine band
Overlay peace yet endlessness
Cast, swayed in the balmy breeze, yet
It displayed depth and eloquence;
The sunshine band
Loyalty to each other let
These white feathered benevolence
Dip their heads together, heart set.
The sunshine band

In a barren wasteland I stand;
Amid sticks and bones that once
Haunted my soul.
Memories gone of not so long ago.
Dandelions once played in a lush of green;
A bear came calling after me.
Visionary of epic said I would be free.
Its eye in death has not yet closed.
David and I with a sling
Thrown at the Mark
Only his was stone
Overlay this bear with death and look beyond at the budded tree.

Name
Most people are afraid to die
A fatal blow it seems , death does
If a corpse came back to life they'd cry
Please tell us how it was
A pillow as soft as downy silks
A night as long as souls can stand
A blacken overlay of quilts
An escape rout from the fate of man
Thus is the consequence of death
A restful sleep; a silent hush
Until we kick the covers away
And the shadow of death forsakes us.

When we over think
We under achieve.
When we over look,
We under mine.
When we over talk,
We under appreciate,
When we overstate,
We under estimate.
When we overprint,
We underwrite.
When we overlay,
We under pin.
When we over produce,
We under use.
When we over use,
We under produce.
When we over stock,
We under cut.
When we over price,
We under sell.
When we over protect,
We under value.
When we over view,
We under stand.

The Unknown
Viruses and more
Give us notice that
Our lives are lived
In what is largely
Unknown..
There is an overlay of
Order which covers the
Unknown in a large
Swath of circumstances..
But the unknown
Breaks the surface
Now and then..
To give us the message:
Our finite minds have
Severe limits..whether
The unknown seems
Near or far..
So..the hint seems to be
That an exploration of
The Unknown may
Provide an option to
Set us Free...

We dared meet
in clandestine disguise
behind an overlay of water
Secreted
from watchful eyes peering
amid crystalline dancing droplets
Our first kiss
concealed from lurking eyes
extracting jewels of youthful joy
Rainbow arks,
captured floating crowning’s,
appearing and captivating gems

Verse
The sounds of words can shake the skies
or cut an ego down to size,
when knowing sages have their say
of fitting words to seize the day,
conveying wisdom from the wise.
An avid versifier tries
through orphic craft to harmonize
with sense and lyric overlay
the sounds of words.
From inner cosmos may arise
the wordless visions word defies
that seek to find a worded way
with synesthetic interplay,
and thus in poem crystallize
the sounds of words.

THE GOLDEN DAYS
I sit to write my childhood spun,
Those memories I carry are just like none.
When Yes was 'yes ' and No was 'no',
No stress No worries all time to flow.
Rise up early for the lovely day,
To see what pleasure overlay.
With mommy's love and unconditional care,
And daddy's super grooming powers to share!
Could I repeat my crazy thinks,
With friends gregarious who equally linked.
For being the best of best in slots,
Or jumping off those walls and knots.

Some lives I had more time alone,
This life though has too much life owned,
I wish I could go back to the day,
I did my fusion dance with my mirror saw an overlay,
The overlay was me slightly delayed,
So when I moved it was multiple meese,
Different colors transparent but geeze,
It called me weak in a deep voice but in my mind,
Asked to switch places,
Better then drugs some ancient rituals done out of love,
Or should I say lack of anyway,
Last girl to deny me gave me that day.
