This Tarnished Gold
What does 
This heart 
Know about 
This young rose
Will I suppose,
When life 
Leaves us 
This tarnished gold...

The planet hums with broken things,
Puzzles, birds that cannot sing,
Tearing fabric, tarnished rings, 

And I.

Release the Tarnished Sun
The silver sky 
Released the 
Tarnished sun, 
At dusk,
For me
To wane 
Into that 
Dark  eternal
night in the
Land of Tunisia...

You betrayed my very love and kin,
With your words today said in sin,
You are buried to me in that dust,
And yet spoke of tarnished trust....

Damocles Condemned
Swords
Drawn
Swiftly
From tarnished
Sheaths of bulbous flesh
Transforms pain into audible
Snippets of abhorrent venom sired by taut tongues....

Candle Flame To Monk
A candle flame fluttered and vanished
For, it wished not to be tarnished.
Said, "Ye monk, in mind your deeds black,
Character is what a man does dark!"...

Dusty Dreams
Age old emotion
Endless as the ocean
What was
What is
What potential
Lost in the commotion
Dusty dreams
Tarnished heart
Seperated from me
The day you did depart...

Its almost too much,
budburst
on a cold morning
when cherry trees
awaken a white bliss,
the soundless shiver
of a million mouths
buffing a tarnished
soul to a shine....

Tarnished gate leans firm…surviving my youth’s wildly-drawn graffiti.

Blemished
Blemished; tarnished as brass
In search of hidden places to rest
Floundering in seas of murky haze
Struggling through each cloudy day
Reaching out from the abyss
Yet helping hands stay far away...

Manager
A pearl sneers 
over vanilla stones.

I need tutoring 
for the use of my limbs,
you presume.

Besides, arrogance 
drives the men wild,
and the wind…

A tarnished orb
amongst the rocks....

Tarnished Through Timing
Tarnishing through timing
Three times trustingly
Triple traps tripping too
Trounced twice tingling 
Telepathically trudging 
Teaming tremendous tasks
Tell Timmy to take tally 
Tarnished Through Timing...

Infidelity - Naani Poem
Infidelity (Naani Form)

When Love, in mercurial flight forsakes
The heart that it once cherished
Tears that flow leave
Vows and rings...tarnished.

new year's fresh promise
is quickly tarnished by war

A Glittering Candle Flame
A candle flame does not flutter
And is not extinguished,
For it is determined to glitter
And not to be  tarnished!
Said “ Dear devout,
Halt a moment and hark!
Here is a blemish-less monk,
Even in the dark!!”...

Freezer Burn
Aerate this amalgamation
of Ecstasy. 

Frozen dark thunder
Not crashing but 
Cracking into
My center. 

Dry ice and smoke
Enveloping this 
Desperation. 

An I sail into 
the Tundra, 
Tarnished, bleeding
and frostbit....

My Love Is Blue Fire, Red Lies
When I first met you
the spirit of my heart
became flammable
like blue fire
illuminating my genuine
infatuation for you
from the base and sweat
of my fever driven soul
never to be tarnished by
fanning red lies...

Angelic in beauty 
also in sound 
flowing over tarnished rocks 
carefree in the Lost world 
known as the Upper Peninsula 
tourist come from other states 
just to explore, hike and sightsee 
they're splendid beauty...

Spirit Runs
I write from a place 
  that’s old, endowed

With brass left tarnished 
  and cobwebs spun

All time unsheltered, 
  where thoughts conceive

The truth reborn,
—and spirit runs
