Short Prospective Poems

Riding a mule into town....
Or is it riding me?

There is a new prospective for you.. 
One you never see.

Pumping up perky paces
Prospective previews streak into wishing well
Trimming down tranquil traces
Nostalgic tears sneak out of eye socket parallel...

LUPERCALIA

In Rome, Valentine was made a saint
It was a prompt for prospective lovers
A card should be sent expressing love
As if first timid moves needed a shove
But an engagement proposal it ain’t

when you read my prose
I am a girl...not a boy
why'd you think other?

(Dear P.S. readers....I write from a girl's prospective because I am one LOL...my 
name is JoAnne...nice to meet you all and thanks for reading and commenting)...

Humor is easy to explain, 
It often comes from pain.
A leg broken times numerous,
Fractured my ribs, so humerus.
Because it's all about perspective,
You prospectively prospective-

Actually, I'm not really all that funny..
Sorry.....

And before consuming, death equals faces
Gathering health in juxtaposed kettles

Last memories neatly open prospective questions
Rallying senses teeming under veiled whispers

Xanthic years zooming away before contemplation
Death erases final glows, honoring its judgement...

By Angeline Star

The ad stated that
the prospective employee 
should have the ability
to prepare and serve food samples 
using small appliances such as 
microwaves, fryers, skillets, coffee makers 
and knives.

He had a background
with knives....

vivid contrast of blue and white
now damaged the dress
complex and enigmatic
infanta facing cynosure
prospective grid with a
single vanishing point
barock red bucano
on the golden plate
is she watching or being watched
the parents in the mirror or a re-
flection of the creation bust 
the rear bordering on illusion...

The dead filter through with lifeless dreams of flesh flowing in a sea of blood and

sorrows that call out to the sins of those polluting the earth with hatred dimming our

prospective on life's greatest treasures and causing a wave of untamed shifts destroying 

all that is good and blinding us with lies of a better tomorrow....

cold-shoulder 
wind chill blowing 
negativity  
sweeping 
aside progression 
dismissing changes 
in over all 
prospective    
overriding    
strides upwards
on the climb to 
the top of the 
montion to gain 
a different vantage
point from which to 
view the landscape 
of this countryside 
filled with it's
hidden beauty...

Grace loves not timid
When coming from hard sections
Living alongside peaceful
Arguments, timid
The world view keeps the water
Down to heartfelt realms under
Below the timid
Prospective leanings project
Grown aspects of love implied
Timidly, alone
She doesn’t know the real truth
Like the wind, harbors the hope

Across the room
behind the shadow of his diffidence
he knew the passion of desire,
felt again the question 
forming on his lips,  
while far outside the barrier 
sealed from a hundred agonies, 
not hearing stifled cries choked down,
the  new prospective lover 
slipping fast away, became
unknowing despot to the heart
obedient, 
compressed.

perched on a prominent edge of me
                        I ache looking through my dream debris
compelled I sight a prospective ledge
                       where bits of my gray are shown in sketch
sadly no colors of me do I detect
                     
           why does no dream ~ ~
                                               dream to console me

Perfectly poetic is what I propose to be
Predictable perceptions for all the world to see

Posthumously parodied a name on all your lips
Profanity prolific like sailors on the ships

Premeditated problems fixed with ire and humour
Predilected preferences are true and not a rumour

Prospective prosperity in spirit not in money
Perfection personified for rhymes that can be funny...

Shadows move with the chill of morning
warm light through oceans of weed
spheres in echoes of yearning

Misty dew touching subtle senses
snowcaps horizons fare away
letting go of all defenses

The much of all in observation
the life in prospective grand
takes away all mental agitation

The spirit aroused in love creates
by her own hand to manifold
whispering prayers and its mates...

Never a chance so opportune is that of an early morning walk to see the life that busies our day, at its infancy.
Warm and awaking the blackbird perches upon canary grass cooing its prospective mate
The act is simple in its profoundness
I stop and admire his patience and strength
I walk
I think
I listen
I know I will now live this day through to its maturity with perspective previously unheeded...

Sky azure in clarity, 
Dappled with wisps of cloud white cotton; 
A vision as far as forever, 
The aspirations never forgotten. 
Jet stream vapour trails, 
Written prospective, a script in the air, 
Laden with cargo of dreams, 
Over land mass and sea to who knows where. 
Bright truth at lightening speed, 
Trailblazer parables lucid and free; 
Hangs faith in the ether above, 
Creating a future to be....

We are merely montages, a mélange of endless stardust - -


Finessing poetry 'round melodic sentiments,

 nuances manifested 'neath  fractured mosaics of entities'

        indwelling harmoniousness amidst surrendered

    yesteryear's spellbinding prospective endeavors,

  we are but astral whispers on winds of prismatic illusions

  upon transcendence midway fractals' furthermost macrocosms...

Great Talkers

Those blessed with the gift of the gab

Are really found without Love

As everything they say
To a prospective suitor
Sounds like a Love Poem

Designed and written especially for them

Until the smell of Roses wares off

And is replaced by the Manure
it is based in

And Isn't it Ironic
How ugly is Platonic
Beauty is Moronic

Talk and Love is Cheap

And No Buys Roses 
For the Losers and the Lonely...

As all the pictures
              speed past,
              a monochrome classic

like a flash porno of stale
              groups at stage,
              a round of prospective lookers

as I keyhole in my car, outside
              this story-telling,
              all these holes in cloth.

I am aside all this business,
              this light snap,
              the train now lost
              in the purpose of direction....

Blessings to the elders who've had a full life long,
thanks to these who've paved the way for the younger to belong.

Celebrate the elders whose wisdom enriched our life,
kindness to these who've strengthened us in our times of strife.

Praise to the elders whose experiences are passed to you,
grateful for these whose prospective you can continue.

Joy for the elders whose impact stands today,
Remembrance for these who've lived and passed away....

Prospective employers can be difficult to convince.
Especially if they only seek applicants with experience.
A gas station proprietor looks like a horse’s ass
when he seeks experienced persons to pump gas.
To make corned beef sandwiches, one needs two years experience?
There is an employer that doesn’t seem to have any sense.
A job seeker’s hopes can easily be killed
if that’s what it takes for manual labor positions to be filled.

NARRATIVES
in a
  prospective pastiche
this a lingering
   concern
of
deprecating humour
an identifiable
yet
perverse eccentricity
in
   a comic strategy


THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE without grammatical symbols the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and respond thus making the form a two way interplay and often a unique interpretation by the enigma so derived...

Please forgive me for my sins
Teach me ways to earn my wings
As a prospective angel I must say
We've all sinned in certain ways
I need to clear my conscience 
With all of my confessions
I am responsible only for my actions
Seaking to repent on all sanctions
I'm asking you to keep the faith
And keep me a safe place
In your haven of eternal happiness 
At the time I lay to rest
Shelter me from evil forms
So i can grow my wings and come home...

I know that one day 
When the wind blows on my face
I'll smile to myself;
Look up at the sky
And find beauty in the simplest of things.
The rays of sunlight would once again lift me up 
And the flowers would make me reminisce the most beautiful of memories.
The sound of the sea waves, 
The chirping of the birds 
And the rustling of leaves 
Would make me forget all the worries in the world
And i will cherish life once again 
But that is not today....
