Short Pursing Poems

Lips locked loosely
Tell me that I can open them
The door is only stuck
Not dead bolted with strength
And pursing my own mouth
The hinges are undone
While the wind of my breath
Opens your orifice...

I
Poitier
Once a battle town
French fought off Islam
Sidney
From Bahamas to Hollywood Casas
Pursing lips Poitier
Genuine Smile Poitier
Our Hollywood Savior
I remember
Lilies in the Field
Rest Sid, I finally did
Remember
To write this
Tribute
Wish I could say it
Better

II
Guess
Who's Coming
To dinner!...

Said I did
Lies told through
The pursing of my lips
Outwardly living
Deep within the soul
Anxious falsehoods
Birthing down
Inward my darkness
Festers out of control
Truth forgotten
So lies become
The inevitable
Truth
Said I did
Becoming more
Than real
Creating monsters
Under my bed
I hide there too
Arm wrapped
In cold cloth
Of a sickness
Born out of self hate...

ego and soul in conversation
recognise that they are the same
former with form, the latter formless
differing only in level of awareness 
yet both aspects are deluded
feeling separate from the source 
thus pursing agendas as of desires
spawned by an imaginary identity
until all illusions just fall away
revealing the source of our being
awareness self-aware pulsating light...

Never so sweet - as the rosebud's feat
to capture the bloom of the rose
ensconced within - it's petals thin
to break forth with color intense
lips pursing up - shining with dew
carousing the sun for it's heat
sensuous wiggles - the flower entails
seducing it's nutrient's meat
radiant rays - soft petals caressed
it's fertilization bestows
the velvety blood red kiss - of -
the passion embraced by the rose...

We are all on borrowed time
Yet we constantly search for
The next step in our climb 

Ponder pausing the pursing 
Taking a moment to slow down
To divert us from all the doing 

May realize how blessed we are 
Rejoiced to relish in the present 
In lieu of perpetually raising the bar

This sliver of time and space
Will only exist for a tiny bit 
Let's embrace the intersection
That the universe chose to knit...

pursing the lips 
churning into
the bowels 
of this earth
you opened wide 
doors to 
my heart

completely naked
to the soul
tied and bound
to you love
so proud 
of you honey

whistling to
the four corners 
standing tall
you are to me 
a dream

blooming deeply
great warm waves
softly touching
around in circles
inside leaping curls
so very beautiful

take it 
from me 
sweety darling honey 
your blazing hot...

Do you object to
sexual encounters in the clan
to save a semi-god
from extinction ?

A political consideration ?
For you becoming an otherself
for future generation ?

I will not return to the cave
for a bell jar of bones in
the dominion of nature.

The creamy layer of bats
in dark, pursing the lips
to give a truth curdling lie.

I think, I should not think
of sun, water and clouds
and of mundane predictions.

These modern day girls,
they don't fall in love
like they did in the black and white movies,
no more Audrey Hepburns' sipping on chardonnays
and pursing gold flake cigarettes
over a bowl of delicate conversation

they're unsophisticated,
they puff on cigars
and gulp down jello shots
while attempting a balletic demeanor
as poetic as Grace Kelly

but their actual depiction
is gauche
and lacking the ability
to fool any heart,
especially Cary Grant's...
