lost innocence

ego energised eddy currents betray
serpentine spirals of subterfuge 
heart too shy to emote love
till God be soul’s refuge

Once You Find What You Are Meant To Be, Trying To Get There Will Make You Happy

Slalom, serpentine or straight 
Your course need only approach your goal 
Although important is the rate
To a noble bourne, it is not the soul

luxuriant, Serpentine-wise -

Caduceus

When the merpeople queen met the serpentine people king,
Feelings aroused within them, making it more than a fling.
Their tails began gently entangling, a caduceus forming.

Seen the Wind

noon sun's halo at play

       silence echoing away

              scarecrow sways the day



              warm wind, somehow seen

       snaking across cornfields green

winged, serpentine!

Morning Smog

suffocating,
sooty smoke
swirls silent,
serpentine;

coils around,
hisses above
crude contours
of blackened
smokestacks;

strangles the air,
dims morning light,
darkens ashen fog:
toxic smog.

Immortal

The sun in London comes to shine
Above the placid Serpentine
And glimmer, glint and glow
Upon the statue of a boy:
Proud Peter Pan with elfin joy,
Surviving sun and later snow,
A pixie out of long ago.

Zen mode

attention oscillates to feel contrast 
it’s a unique offering of this earth realm
we see how dream forms spread their net
serpentine spirals that tend to overwhelm
we plunge in but don’t get our feet wet

Snaky Smog

Serpentine,

   sooty smoke floats,
      swirls slowly above
         shadowed contours 
            of city smokestacks,
         darkening ashen fog,
      dimming early light,
   poisoning air:

venomous smog.

The Rules of the Road

The highway of life is full of speed bumps and unseen peril
Heed the rules of the road; ease off the gas pedal when traveling
On a serpentine route, or risk careening off a high cliff

A Message To the Denizens of Poetrysoup

twisting in tingled arcs 
through a cold late september 
breeze, dancing in serpentine 
patterns to the puppeteer strings 
of the wind, a scrap of paper 
gracefully lands upon your windshield 
  
it says 
  
"GET F*CKED"

Zen Mode

a serpentine path appears 
we know not
what lies around the bend
for if we did
how would we be surprised 
ah, the delight 
of navigating linear time
with God within 
our radiant glowing heart
bliss drenched

heart contractions

a minor aberration
onset of angst
serpentine
slow strangulation 

a strange melancholy 
our aura darkens
heart bleeds
as delusion deepens 

presence always free
to accept or negate
illusions conjured 
whilst centred in the void

Serpentine Waters

Crystal clear serpentine waters gurgle, gushing over small rocks. A fly rides the turbulent surf as I wade hip deep rod in hand. And I feel the river’s fingers tugging, trying to trip me up. (Lyric/Verse )

Fear Lurking

The opposite of love is not hate
It is fear of change, difference, or mood
It sidles with a serpentine gait
Hiding, gathering ammo like it’s food..

The Road of My Life Is Serpentine

The road of my life is serpentine,
Wavy and with High-Five traffic jams.
Bewildering to me, but not to God,
Someday He will pull it straight,
Like that Christmas ribbon that curls.
All I can do now is talk to Him,
And wait until the ribbon unfurls.

Down This Road

on a snow covered slope
for what seems like miles
the serpentine lines
lead back to you

when the sand, surf, and sun
join hands with the blue horizon
you watch in naked awe

still down this road
I need to know
your plans
your simple goodbyes

At a Crossroads

Leveling up on serpentine curves —
Dust-coated and desiccated — crossroads:
Inebriated with floods, one length;
Darkened with fumes of a puking mountain,
The other stretch;
Gale-powdered face of one breath stares at the
Rumbling belly of the fourth.

Seduce Me

I'm really not that hard to please
I hold on to the fondest of memories

Driving down back roads serpentine
Listening to music with the sweetest of rhymes

Then take me back home for some wine and dine
By the end of the night I just might call you mine

Over Tree and Crag of Rock

Ways so serpentine
Garden path now dim at dusk
Oh Peregrine, casting thine eyes down
Clutch up my deepest sorrows
Lifting high my soul, place crown

Once in flight
Search out my ghost
Over tree and crag of rock
High above cliffs of sea
One sheep of scattered flock.

Snake For Lunch

from the sky plummets

      a feathery blur with razor talons

            and cruel, crooked beak..


                  slays a serpentine shadow

                        in the grass, then flies off to feed

                              eaglets nestled at the peak.
