'La maja desnuda'*

his Venus upon a divan did laze
with a straightforward& unashamed gaze

is not obtained by
straightforward solutions ~
compromise, twists and turns
bypass obstacles

giving composition his delicate kiss
So varied his accomplished reportoire

Revealing marrow
Broken rules,
Many poems

All my jewels.
Life is our kit that shapes those things we do;
In other words, from a straightforward view.
From standard rules- revise and then renew;
End up with great rewards that follow through.

Man of Faith
You openly minister
to all the wayward
And, not the least
the straightforward.
You may not change
some bad intentions
At least you can
to bad perceptions.
For mankind, harmony
an' mirth is wrought
For, peace and love
can never be bought.

Though sunset is a thread upon the living
in care of others nothing, but love like
a beacon. It is axiomatic
that life is not always straightforward
beyond this simple world, motivated
by purely altruistic reasons for
others with much warmth of asseveration
of the heart never forgotten.

Raising a barrier with an expression of a trunk barrel is quite astonishing really. Whilst holding a booking breaming fish at a straightforward angle. In sunshine or at schools in closeted cupboards eating a lot of cakes then. Dance with ninety six thousand frogs. Hahahaha and a few long pies. Hahahaha xx longitudinal ***

He pens for her
Upon his page
This woman he thinks
Hides in written cage
Of words of passion
Never before sought
He thinks he's the reason
For every sensual plot
Hiding he deals ink
with double entendre
A straightforward style
Being more her forte
Playing together without a care
This the penman's love affair.
Paying It Forward

When someone helps me,
I’ve learned to pay it forward.
It has usually happened
when I didn’t need serving.
Doing it discretely,
never straightforward.
I select my target,
from those I’m observing.
“Service to others is the rent you pay
for your room here on earth.”
Muhammed Ali
Fish
I am cheesy.
I am straightforward, dead inside, tired, and sarcastic.
Brother of Tyrone.
Lover of nothing, no one, and nobody.
Who feels hatred for this poem, smooth, and closed.
Who fears showing emotion, socialization, and girls.
Who would like to see the world end, a brand new Ps4 that’s for him, and food.
Resident of 3401 Mustang Way, Hemet, CA 92545.
I am a fish.
When the noise makes sense
and the malediction feels like a blessing;
the hunger turns into a fullness
as the defloration becomes efflorescence.
Only then will I know...
That relinquishment is just another offering,
that falling is just going upward;
the opposite is the way ahead to the straightforward.
Only then will I know,
by the true learning of loving you,
who I am.
When a man's always angry and always enraged
blaming complaining and slightly deranged
quickly offended and often acts crazed
never changing and always the same
it's not that he's mad or that he's insane
I'll tell you exactly what makes him this way,
the answer's straightforward so don't complicate,
his genitals are tiny, it makes him irate!
*it's sooo true, it's sooo funny
they're having a happy chat
they would not dream to own
some scarecrow with a stone
beneath its frightening hat
scheming fancy and laughter
cheering and chanting aloud
they'd not venture to alter
one frail reassurance found
their stories all have flair
if thoughts are loud or bare
those children sleep lightly
they'll whisper thoughtfully
shun a straightforward stare
through squabbles skillfully
Mental Illness is not a violation.
It's a human experience.
One many carry unspokenly.
The real harm is uncovered
How others respond:
The quick labels, the cold
Stares, the whispered verdicts.
A mind in toil needs support, not punishment,
Compassion, not condemnation.
Because the truth is straightforward:
The crime is in the person
Who sees the hurt and chooses to
Judge it.
Character defines personality
A noble character is simple, decent and kind
An awakened character is clear, straightforward and true
The beauty of character lies in the respect of human body
An exalted character uplifts righteous morals
Ups and downs may put a symbolic character on trial
Bad guys and nasty acts are enemies of strong character.
Husney kirdar say norey mujasm ho ja
Iblees bhi tujhay daikh kar sudhar Jaye.
Folding chairs
Folding sheets...napkins and
self
Tuck the ruffled edges...the creases
the bound corners deep
Hide them in the formation of perfect squares and
Straightforward lines
Slowly..carefully smooth out the visable top layers
till like a smooth as glass sea on a pale October morning
All remants and reminders of froth ...foam and fury
are forgotten in the haze and daze
of molten light reflecting only off the surface
what’s revealed remains concealed
for those who as yet dwell in the dark
but if they wish, they too can be healed
truth is simple, straightforward and stark
voids within fill if we choose to be still
ascending along love’s upward arc
easy becomes soul’s ascent uphill
upon surrendering, making heart pure
in stream of bliss we then drink to our fill
sidestepping the web of desires that lure
make eye mindful and touch demure
On love’s straightforward way I slipped,
When careless, gone astray, I slipped.
When taking a shortcut in life,
Walking on feet of clay I slipped.
Spoiled a spotless pure persona,
When on a one night’s stay I slipped.
She’s not the same person since then,
Forgotten I’ve today, I’d slipped.
And still, courage the least I have
To confess it and say I’d slipped.

i’ve been s-coffing quite a lot lately ~ i think perhaps i’ve got a s-cold

a fair straightforward non rotating ~ syllable counted monoku

Tried to be straightforward;
Misunderstood by everyone.
Common were the brickbats;
Discarded by the loved ones.
Though life seemed miserable,
Like a rock stood he!
Lost no hope…
Fought till the end uncompromised,
For the principles he believed in.
As a guiding light he emerged.
Truth is always bitter
For those who dislike it.

Listen to poem:
Bent askew, with shadow straight as a die
reflecting my every move and mood
I dwelt upon the hidden grace of being bent.
For curved things are strangely stronger
than straight things, so rare in nature.
So prone to shatter to pick-up-sticks, straight bits
when compliant and inflexible.
Fearing the wind will turn you into a statue
if you flap, furl, curl and yield to change,
and take a backward step, arching back,
away from the straightforward.
