Mental insanity
And Christianity
Aren’t really synonyms,
Most of the time.
Still, it’s befitting
(The reader permitting)
To notice how closely they rhyme....

Choking on synonyms.  The struggle of expression. No teeth. No fangs. Or paper. Or pen. Or acronyms. By night, i am his paradox. By day, his analogy. By tomorrow, i am not his. By now, i can no longer love him....

images dance in the mind

was not meant to be hidden
be true to yourself

call it what it is
synonyms of passion's name
each one is the same

The blaze of Youth 
   leaves behind burnt Antonyms

      of which the mellowing years 
         are secretly desirous,

         but can only gather 
      so many parched Synonyms

   from hindsight there italicized 
in Time's thesaurus!...

Boiling, baking and blazing,
               Other synonyms for heat.
My camel is happily dazing,
	He was not a restful seat.
Poolside I’ll later be lazing,
	Resting my sunburnt feet.
Air conditioning is amazing,
               Ice cream is a lovely treat....

When my mind alit
(when the world was still)
upon curvatures
of breath and silence
and a glance's grace

When my mouth paused
(the world was dark)
on synonyms
for devotion

eyes rested,
trouble was
vanquished then

and one
sad soul

slept...

once impulsive        now

deserted   forsaken
                  cast aside
jilted
stranded
              rejected
dumped
ditched
                 unused

neglected
             idle
                unoccupied
uninhabited

I stand empty

      words fail me...

is one small candle enough against the darkness
can one faint light change anything
will one small candle not be engulfed 
blown out by the wind
snuffed out in an ocean of black

can I keep the flame going
sheltered, protected 
safe, secure 
the synonyms go on
but I don’t know if I can...

Housed within

the human heart

love is

on all accounts

indescribable,

defying

words and

synonyms,

a flame

that forges

and reshapes

all aspects of your

heart, your soul, and your life,

for

love is magical.

Jasper uses the words absurd and whimsy as if they are synonyms
They are not the same to me, I say to him.
Silliness, craziness and idiocy is not whimsy.
Whimsy is imagination, playing, having fun, laughing, loving.
Jasper begins to whisper about me.
I have dog ears, and I do not like what he says.
So, I whimsically bite him....

bulb, pit, core, root
I like to keep them out of my boot.

Door

I have one made of thatch.

Dessert

Those are what I eat and bake.

Save
rescue, help, assist, recover
Someone to save I will discover.

Married 
hitched, matched, wedded
This is one thing I've always dreaded....

Help me smother this irritation ~ with lines and punctuations ~ 

Feed me pronouns ~ to drown incompetent sounds ~

Nouns to block inevitable frowns ~ verbs to calm nerves ~

Synonyms to perpetuate and penetrate minds ~ antonyms to reiterate in rhyme~

Give me a vocabulary of words to express my perturb ~ why must people be so absurd

Listen to poem:

The Rare Rainbow at Night
David J Walker


by the hundreds 
my regrets gather in the
cul-de-sac end of each day
each with its own number
each its own name and 
definition connected to 
a list of possible synonyms and
well defined antonyms of sins 
committed in the past

the atonement of another tonight
is attached to a rainbow 
i cannot see 
until the morning...

The blaze of youth
       leaves behind burnt
              antonyms

       of which
              the mellowing years are
                     desirous,

Wish I had half a brain 
Bricks to fill the void in my head 
Wrinkled and stained 
Intelligence is but a soul beheaded

Big words were never an attribute 
Amassing descriptions to loneliness 
Why can't we just call it solitude 
Synonyms alongside this dark fortress 

Half wits aren't so bad 
Rest assured your worries diminish
Analysis a loyal companion 
To every syllable I intend to finish...

My mother clad me in pink,
and later in my teens, lavender.
But the blue was always there,
underneath the pastel colors.
It was in my genes,
blue with its melancholia
and myriad synonyms,
azure and cerulean.
My mood is a spectrum
of different shades of blue,
including royal and navy.
The sky and the sea are blue,
with every variation in between,
turquoise and indigo.
Blue is behind my strawberry colored smile....

Words
Nouns, adjectives, verbs...
Synonyms and antonyms
That constitute similes, metaphors, acronyms,

...and phrases

That by the brush of the tongue
Illustrate life
In all its phases

And by the collab
of heart and hand
Bring life
to blank pages...


Words,
Used to persuade,
Used to describe
Used to express
What is felt inside

Used to connect
Used to divide,
Used at your discretion
But in your selection,
Be wise...
