Premium Member Waiting In the Wings
They watch, they wait
to see my fate.
never adding nor subtracting
hauntingly and numb.
They wait in the wings
of indifference 
to announce my outcome....

The Force
Adding
peculiar
subtracting
never

laws 
of something
(besides physics)

has to
wants to
needs to
improve

velocity 
is present
and that very force
pushes 
the dead weight
forward
until
it can't sit still anymore

because
it has to

it's got to move
or else
it dies...

Premium Member Haversack Hope
Haversack hopes bring bitter crack
Next to nothing is brought back

Recalled promises all are lacking 
Adding nothing but subtracting 

Public messages are attacking 
Better dreams start retracting

The finish line is protracting 
People gather and start reacting...

My Life Is a Buffoon
Bit by bit I build my life 
But it never becomes a structure 
Where I can put my head in rest 
Lay down my soul in peace 
Neither has it become a calculation 
Though I keep adding and subtracting 
 Till date I did the sum   forty times 
Nowhere have I seen any perfection 
Nor any proper displacement of it has been seen 
Only it keeps revolving around
 Like a true buffoon...

Lockdown- 29th Day
Remaining paths on the red vermilion
Seeks remedy of imprisoned life zone

Digging out the final residual den for breath
Washes the paths of rest life warning fate

Yet cloudy summer sky starting plough hopes
Will back all joyful times with relative crops

We are all together without anyone lacking
Will return to souvenir field subtracting nCoV-19

We'Ve Got Issues Too, a Masked Rant
Why do you act like you own me,
be careful,
confidence is an unequal attitude you know,
it can turn you into a violent creature,
questioning not authority, nor yourself,
yet confronting everyone,
with confident paranoid ranting,
star spangled banter,
rocking the boat at any cost,
adding science fiction to fact,
then subtracting desperate tries to turn cog insecurity,
into a star mask....

Premium Member Poets and Plastic Surgeons
Poets and plastic surgeons-whittling away
adding here, subtracting there
bandaging a verse or stitching a face
trying to make plain into pretty
perfection just a small slice away.

A masterpiece is what they seek

A mountain of trash for every gem
cutting and slicing stretching and trimming
seeking the perfect profile or seamless rhyme, 
but filling the world with rivers of gibberish 
and mirror obsessed Frankensteins....

Premium Member Tom, You Shouldn’t Be Here
“Tom, You Shouldn’t Be Here” New Years Day 2017 Miracle Man 10/2/2024 At birth God assigned me an unknown expiration date. God has seen fit to bless me with my date coming late. But an inaudible clock is busy deducting from my earthly time. Subtracting each earthly second God has allotted for my lifetime. I’ve faced serious hurdles that Doctors said were my end. But only God knows the reason He chose my time to extend.

And This Is the Way...The Way It Goes
I feel the tide
Pulling
And tugging
My heart
My head
My body
Into two

What do I do
Where do I go
When everything's
A choice I have
To make

I feel the seasons
Splitting
And tearing 
My emotions
My thoughts
My actions 
Into four

What to be
Where to flee
From former
Yous and mes

I feel the days 
Dividing 
And subtracting
My hours
My minutes
My life
Into seven

What to know
Where to blow
Away where things
Don't materialize
So easily...

The Theory To Understanding Me
Basically I am a self visionary 
Chasing dreams that are dead or unwanted
An illusionist. ......
Subtracting the real from my reality 
I could more or less be chasing rainbows 
I seek to unravel  the mystery within the mystery 
Always forgetting to actually solve the mystery 
Some have come to the understanding that I am insane 
not that I disagree at all
For Einstein was also considered insanely mad.
