Premium Member Voice, Crying

A piercing cry punctuates the silence
Make way
Pierced side and hands and feet
Pricks ears, pierces hearts
Unquenchable fire, unquenchable love
A wilderness wasteland or a narrow path
Choose this day, give your ears to hear
And live

In the quiet still
in the sable night

dreamy dotted with
punctuates of light

I recall
my youthful days:

no balcony too steep
nor high – those I could
not climb, then~ simply I 
would fly

Wanted: old Juliet, with
sympathetic elevator --

Sounds Squirm Up

Rain-steps publish worms, wriggles scribe themselves. The thrown thud of a newspaper punctuates the wet and written. Sparrows scrawl and scrabble, foraging starlings attack the earth sounds squirm up, muddy scripts are picked at, edited a door slams, the ground rewrites itself.

Oyenchi

the night is young...
and cool as cucumber
together we stared at the future
puncturing the punctuates of life

the night is young...
in her sanctuary i staggered
conjuring and chanting in the bowel of thighs

the night is young...
in the balcony of her kisses
i conquer nations
for the love of , Oyenchi

At My Brother's Grave

Sweat mingels with my tears,
as thunder reverberates above.
Angels with calginous garments,
stand in obscure doorways;
as lightning punctuates the empyrean.
Looking towards the future,
I can only envision the past.
So once again I plant flowers 
at my brother's grave.
But who are these flowers really for?
The person long since deceased,
or the ones who remained behind?

Eternal Existence

ETERNAL EXISTENCE

Misuse decay's from inside-
Scripture beats crime lies upon early sunshine-
Empty life leaves scratch the willow sallow-
Warning day o' coming washes man's sins forgiven

Luke warm sadness punctuates inert organs pain-
Hunt of madness catches forbidden below us-
None seen -none heard creature hides behind-
Battle bow of bones in time 
All life folds above us sweet exodus

Unwritten Poems

The soundless rhythm of my hidden thoughts
Punctuates my strides on the unfeeling ground,
The chorus of my countless unwritten poems
Have a place in my private recesses found.

I feel a poem in the chirruping of the keen sunrise bird
And another in the sickening brutality of heartless men,
A couple of verses in the little-noted burials of great souls
And endless sonnets in the mystic things beyond my ken.

Premium Member Liquid Shadows

the moon in full bloom golden beams dance on water... gilded tides rising. Rolling waves of cobalt cascade ashore, subservient to time, and nothing more. The thunder of crashing breakers punctuates the deafening silence. And liquid shadows color the reef in gradient shades of ebony. Night steals the light, like a brazen thief, acting purely out of jealousy: darkness, its eternal destiny.

The Fade

Misuse decay's from inside-
Scripture beats on lies of crimes in an early sunshine-
Empty life leaves scratch the willow sallow-
Warning day o' coming washes man's sins forgiven

Lukewarm sadness punctuates inert organs of pain-
Haunt of madness catches so slow below us-
None seen -none heard a creature hides behind-
 Battle bow of bones in time, all life folds above us sweet exodus

Premium Member Sea Poem

You get familiar
with the fall of the land,
follow a gentle slope of words
down to the shore
where water punctuates
time with waves.
All becomes a poem, 
washing up
metaphor upon metaphor,
meaning forming on the wide,
tide swept beach,
whisperings in the chambers
of seashells, white sand 
carrying the remains 
of the churned passions 
of the sea. Love distills 
to a warm, soft breeze
nuzzling into a still 
drowsy morning.

Premium Member High Desert Scene

Rolling hills dim in the distance Beneath low-hovering mists, While an occasional stand of pines Punctuates the shallow canyon rim, The steppes to the summit appear Like wrinkles carved into the face Long ago, the sharp outcropping defines A deep crevice plunging sharply Toward the foreground in shadows, Vanishing into imagined darkness.

Premium Member EARTHY GRAMMAR

the earth speaks  
in a syntax of wind,  
in the slow-moving vowels  
of shadow across stone;  

its grammar lives  
in the way grasses lean,  
in how light punctuates  
the ridge at dawn,  

each pause a lesson,  
each shift a clause  
in the long, unwritten text  
of being alive;  

and when we listen,  
truly listen~  
we feel meaning gather  
like seeds in the palm,  

a quiet fluency  
in the language  
we were born knowing  
but forgot how to read.
