I said to my wife, did you know?
If you drop a brick on your toe
It’s regarded as luck
But it hurts like F—K
I would rather be unlucky so...

Latin:  inspiration = inbreathing
Eternal God’s influence 
The human writers of the bible
So that he himself 
Regarded 
As the author
Of the Sacred Scripture

It was regarded as a bit of a coup
To win a contest on Poetry soup
Like opening a bland box
To find a chocolate Gateaux
I will have to think my rhyme things through...

No living garden
can be lonely or un-regarded,
as long as one butterfly
or bee
gives it wings, or a song.

Flowers will bloom bright,
where sparrows lightly tread....

A feast for the eyes
Or a lamb meant to slaughter, 
Respected not with respect to
Mother, wife or daughter; 
Regarded as criterion used 
For measuring machismo, 
Or a way to exhaust
A fleeting need for pleasure....

Generally regarded with a squeamish
Enigmatic perspective by those who are
Not one and those who are seldom
Insinuate this characteristic themselves
Unless called upon to demonstrate a new
Scintillating discovery shouting, "Eureka, I am a genius."...

Poetry


Polite mannerisms 
Often go unnoticed or ignored
Elephant trumpeters marching in the room
Talk of fiction and tall tales
Regarded as falsehoods or popular talk
Your voice and perspective counts a whole lot

The aesthete bounds into the Bakery
He tasted all of the bread
To the village, the crumb tastes perfectly 
Yet the contrarian said
I've tasted crust, and your bread is too sweet
I'll eat somewhere else instead
And the Baker saluted the foodie
Yet regarded the critic as phooey...

From one to a mob a person becomes people
An idea becomes action
Results occur
Blame only sticks to individuals
Responsibility dissipates
Pride fuels greed
Exploitation is honorable
Benevolence is a weakness 
Restitution is regarded as unearned reward
Oppression does not mature...

Slowly variance regarded gallant to test the militant.Gusts of despair flood the hosts when gates released more than ghosts. Endless bottomless we ascend and descend.More heart to take part for acts of careless facts. Make sure your plate is full of trifle.

W-orthy name of eighth September
I-s denoting sweet success; 
N-ever ever will she quit nor will she give up to distress.

T-riumph and victory
E-levate her good reputation; 
S-atisfied with her performance, 
S-ated with her own
A-ction.

B-ig birthday celebration
U-nderscores her rank and fame; 
L-et WIN TESSA be regarded
A-s eighth September's worthy
N-ame....

"You are lost!" they mocked me........

I believed that everyone
has his or her own sense of style in living,
but they regarded me as a clown.

I did not follow fashion, religion or what
my fears about people's thoughts told me;
asylum was thought to be a perfect abode
for me; drugs were suspected to be my close company.......

"You were right!" they tell me NOW!...

Like very few dads on earth 
Sparing precious a life to grant a new birth 
Driven by unlimited love and a tremendous mirth 
Glory of heart and soul is your aspiration 
Never cease to be an icon and a fount of inspiration 
Every single desire and whim are met with compassion 
Never regarded a sacrifice but a sweet devotion 
You are worth all the love, respect and recognition....

Speck of 
existence.
Beyond 
insignificant.
Floating.
Floating in
infinity.
Infinity 
within 
infinities.
Unseeable,
unknowable.
Specks
on a
a speck are
we.
Regarded
not by the
void.
Destine to 
blink 
out of
existence.
But,
perhaps,
just perhaps 
enters 
Artificial Intelligence 
Techno Sapien,
then
like the
mustard seed
exploding 
to fill
the void!...

Oh, Nous,*

You, divine faculty of perception

Mother of conception

Source of understanding

Gate of Wisdom

Without your presence deaf and blind I would be

Perpetually. oblivious to truth eternal!

Study the Scriptures*, God's Word
Precepts to be read and memorized
Statutes to be delighted in and with which to be familiarized
Truths to be acknowledged and recognized
Testimonies to be regarded and realized.

*2Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

(This poem was published in Every Day Poets. Enjoy the read!!!!)


“You have lost your mind!”
they told him. His eccentricities
surpassed the boundaries
they regarded as
normal.
Determined to get his mind back,
he searched forest, roadside,
bridge, cemetery….everywhere he remembered
visiting; wondering whether his mind existed or not,
because he had memories.

Three witches
by one sword drawn
from heaven at the
inching of day
thrice regarded, naught
but once slain
for high treason by jury
though not of sound mind
idolatrous fancy its credo
and kind
but divine be certain mercy
oft a misnomer of fools
for whom heresy converts
in the shallowest pool
therefore say the witches let
fate run her course
when the fire avenges
let it be from our source...

Sullen and defensive
(what's it to you?)
quietly disappearing

what difference does it make?
[tiny] and inferior
beaten into believing the propaganda
from [un]reliable sources

Her heart knew [stuck in survival mode]
nothing but self loathing and
self preservation.  To her (unknowing) credit.
Strength.

Regarded as a “loose canon”
by proxy and
so it went.

Scarred.
A miracle.
In God’s eyes....

“Always remember that birds eat ant,
but in the end, ending up as ants’ menu list”,
she always told him.

Regarding the statement as a concoction of words,
he went on doing what he loved doing; consuming time
in a Gypsy tent, searching for the elixir of immortality.

In the end, he died of old age without a solution
to his aging, which he regarded  as a natural abnormality;
time finally consumed him....
