Short Pivoted Poems

   "A Spiritual Sojourn"




sheer white wings pivoted dreaming soul to pure Throne of Grace
captivated by pink cotton candy clouds to gaze beauty
a spiritual sojourn encompassed taste of Divine Love.

     Go. Go, already. The father told his son
         He bit his lip, clenched his fist
      The son did not see the father’s pain

      Go, Go, already. His heart, racing madly 
         The son pivoted awkwardly 
                    ~  he quickly walked away

focus pivoted in the void
pristine presence self-aware
we are not by thoughts decoyed
with the all that is in this way we pair

the key knowing is that there’s no one here
all that that is is omnipresence of God
dream forms appear and disappear 
heart is by touch of love thawed...

Zorro swings and Zorro falls,
sadly landed on someones balls
excommunicated from the mall,
for gross protracted screaming.

Zorro on the crutch of one,
slapped down by a redneck nun,
pivoted crutch to plonking run,
so bad he must be dreaming?

Springing for his horse so black,
drop kicked his oolies slack,
glad it wasn't a donkey Jack,
the Z man enterprising.

The way of the heart is beating 
The ways of the mind are cheating 
Trifling conspiracy lust and jealousies 
Spirit is moving the soul is crying 
Pivoted denying the righteous ways 
The heart wants what the heart wants 
The mind thinks not what just is right
Trouble is the soul as the spirit reaps in thoughts
Beatings so the heart is at awe

eerie aura augmented
felon feature fermented
cremating callous contractions
drooling drips punctured
hoity relief reeled
vying voluptuous acme

tainted tongue trained'n
decking damped trail
fostered feelings feign

porous pulchritude birthed
crisp conception pivoted
mystic smirk aided

syntactic silhouette seeped'n
seductive syllables' creed.

SCISSORS

     
     S cissors to hold pair of metal blades fastened at middle 
     C utting paper, cutting cloth, other materials
     I nstrument so simple to make pieces
     S hearing tools though hand operated.
     S harpened edges pivoted at centre.
     O pening and closing two blades by fingers
     R ings at end allow thumb and finger to insert.
     S liding against each other, blades move smooth.

DROWNED


Drowned in the mirror
Where reflected image stirs
The features of my face
Pivoted in depths of nights.

Rivers in the flow
Shipwrecked in sand
Purposeful dark dreams
Shadows chasing a song 
 In satiated amorous hands.

Taking heed in glories of earth
A passing images held by wrist
Dedicated firstly to passing wind
And then to the gathering mist.

A poem is a poem, what else could be real?
It is there, all in all, and nothing more to steer....

Today I went to live
In a poem chalked of chimes
To taste some reveries in situ
I sought to find in hidden rhyme.

A heart throbbing
With anguished strain
Fire lit by some heated
Embers in the sooty brain.

Piercing with the mind
To observe and let pose
A spider gliding
Gossamer web of its dreams
Framed in a pivoted repose.

A house for habitation
Woven out of itself
Stretched in a triangle
Contemplating for
Other dimension
Beyond rational aims
Of living and dying....
