Premium Member To the Rescue

It's getting hard to write poetry
  with the hatred going on in society

Here's to permanent emnity-abdication
  Light and Love to the rescue, our salvation

Persona

Your actions define you

You create your own persona

The power lies in your hands

It's your own aroma

Build it strong

Be a winner

Don't worry about mistakes

Everyone's a sinner

For the Artist Inside Us All

i write for the artist inside us all

i write for the artist, the scientist, the laborer

because, that is what i intend to create with my art

that new civilization

creating a world where everybody is an artist.

chaos

Chaos has its own grace,
a beauty hard to embrace.
They say it leads the way,
a way nobody dares to obey!
Living only where it sways,
they say they hate the disarray.
Where peace feels so far away, 
Who needs order, anyway?!

Song 19

How well I spent the weekend fair
  And tasted the rivers form,
Until the morning of Sunday bliss
  Ended with Monday's reform.

With laughing mind, I departed
  And tossed my love aside,
Went back into hiding
  And with society I complied.

Society Sheep

Not a sheep
Nor do I bleat
Yet you ask of me to follow
What it is you say
I quietly push away
Begrudgingly however
I appear to walk the same way.
Afraid to speak
For anger rises to a peak
Therefore I reluctantly pretend to be a sheep
And it seems as though I bleat.

Want and Need

Everybody wants what they can't have
Most times what they can't have is just a fad

A fad that goes from fab to drab quite fast 
And like a scientist in a lab going mad 
It's sad to see 

Everybody's chasing after some fab fad 
But what they really need
Is what they already had

Truth

TRUTH

                The egg
            The egg of light
         As full as it is,I see
       It is priceless but free
        It is one of its kind
        Others like it, shine
         Deceiving the 'wise'
           Open your eyes
               For it's
                  one

So Many Roads - Alexis Karpouzos

In our brief life, 
so many roads, 
so many miracles 
and blessings and glories, 
but also so many curses and denials, 
grief and contempt,
continuous waves on the planetary seas 
that come and go, 
and they crawl us into the vast heavens,
in that quiet rhythm universe 
listen to your heart beat.

Premium Member Pause My Poetry

You can bleed me blind,
execute my eyes, 
victimize my vision, 
immolate my imagery, 
nullify my name, 
suppress me into silence, 
slaughter my soul, 
execute my ego, 
slay my spirit, 
veil my verses, 
poison my prose, 
annihilate my alliterations, 
ravage my rhymes, 
waste my words, 
vaporize my vocabulary, 
halt my heartbeats, 

but you will never 
pause my poetry

There Is No Hate Here, Goodone

I see the reeds

the brown, mystical reeds blending in with the tall green grass

surrounding the calm, clear, beautiful waters

they tell me

there is no judgement here

they tell me

go on, speak your song

there is no scorn here

there is no hate here

there is no bitterness here

there is only love here

I love you

this place tells me

sing your song to the world

sing it loud, sing it proud

sing it.

Poetry and Freedom

        A poet is still free to write about what they choose.
        Come now, what do we have to lose?
        Poetry~ one of the last bastions to be free.
        With political correctness on the raging warpath!
        After all words with mendacious audacity.
        To steal words from group-think and rob us of poetic individuality!

Desert of Lives

A desert of lives.
A maze of relationships.
We're just people trying to survive,
As our lives unzips.
Yet will there be a chance to thrive,
And follow that of mere lips? 
Or will we take initiative and drive,
As we begin our own trips? 
So that we can revive,
To be someone who isn't made from just scripts. 
Thus knowing how it truly is to be "alive," 
And form relationships. 
Within the desert of lives,
We can only continue to find different ways to survive.

Premium Member The Future Light

Shadorma Form

Sometimes I feel like a beaten horse after a lost race; life has a way of bruising a person's spirit. Not alone in a world so sad and filled with travesty I pray for sufferings end settle down, await. There will be a day in time when rage will calm hate will die a well deserved, darkened death; a just end. Humankind will be reborn, a renewed race compassion, empathy rebirthed, presents a new light.
