In transit to New York
Injury to the hull
Impossible to float
Into the depths she sank

Premium Member December's Transit

Days stream by
  leaves on a river
Nights drag on
  hard frozen ground

Life's promise deserted
  barren branches
December's transit
  bound for nowhere

Equanimity

Transit in your resting 
Amorphously in peace, and poise 
Mindfulness and rapture 
Make yourself serene
In the thought free alertness 
Of reasonability and quietness


Here and There

His words in transit,
 world travel unleashed,
the world his page to run

Alone in his chair,
both here and then there
—the distance misbecome

Breaking Free

Outrunning his destiny
fate to rescind
chance in the rearview
reflections within

A moment to gather
a lifetime in chase
the wind bearing transit
 —alone in the race

Angels In Transit

Death is a journey
that’s taken alone

Released from the tempus,
our spirits to roam

Death is a servant
indentured to slave

A Master beyond
—new Angels at play

The Lurid Moon

The lurid moon-
Dim as an eye, 
squinting, and
waning unnoticed in 
the despair of darkness,
like souls that trudge
through the roadless
vast transit of Sheol.
Guideless wanderers 
lost: no spirit, essence,
nor aim.

Approaching Storm

The graves have been dug
all bugles away
Medals awarded
for valor displayed

The soldiers in transit
to homes once so dear
But where is the peace
—when gunfire you hear

Crime Bribe

Bribe is a crime in all regions and religions.
Both hands up and down in transit of bribe in dirt 
and unclean.Bribing is to get done or to not to do 
something violating someone’s right.No wait fight 
against this in all might!

One Way Ticket

Transit or destination
I take anything ahead of me
Delays don’t rile me
No terminus will be final
Over my shoulder are memories
Ahead of me are more dreams
Less sorrys
More stories
For good I leave the keys
One way ticket please

Transitory Transitoriness

Childhood transits,
Youth transits,
Love transits,
Pain transits,
Corruptor transits,
Hunger transits,
Poverty transits,
Our names transit
Politic transits,
Wealth transits,
Beauty transits,
Certainty transits:

LIFE IS TRANSITORY!

Eggwagon

Eggwagon hauls the future
Within her steamy womb
Caviar of destiny
Fragile and pure

Eggwagon requires
Sidewalks quite smooth
Maternal slope of peace
Genesis in transit

Rocks and bumps of hate
Zygotes in turmoil
Fissures of neglect
The shame of who you are

The Dream Chaser

Indulged in cherished fantasy in awaken state,
to risk illusion or suffer unrealistic ambition. 
Fanciful actions to turn into reality,
in vain hope, we climb,
we climb to the top of our dream 
And in that moment we transit from a Dream Chaser to a Dream Achiever.

Premium Member A Terrorist Strikes

As the local transit bus stopped and unloaded
Seconds after, a powerful bomb exploded.
We knew that terrorists had struck again, 
Causing mistrust and fear, to everyone’s chagrin
Nearby a ten-story apartment house imploded.

Roadside Leaves

roadside leaves
are tired of  torture
every vehicle passing
slaps its face hard
a child fond of leaves
brutally plucks some
herd of  goats on transit
pick at some as they run
a dog that passes by
raises leg and makes it wet
roadside leaves suffer
but the world cares not

A Happy Smile

The bridge, binding all,
is tied, to our very, humane style.
For most of us, in transit,
the intent, isn't done, in a while.

The use, is definitely there,
the cost free, for all, to go, the extra mile.
The gift, that keeps on giving,
the chance to make happy, a happy smile.

disassembled
    and torn
scattered
    in the fetid
air
    beyond 
        repair
in
higher
     dreams
unheard
unspoken
a
   thousand
        whispers
in
the
night 
    of
       this
           brief 
              transit

Premium Member NATURE IN THE VELVET SKIES--

A calling from the velvet sky A bright light of white fluffy cloud In transit bird fluttering. While wild in nature loud Jettison birds fly Gathering children summer playing Under affirment gentle summer guise

Premium Member Feathers In Transit

While
plumes
flutter
in rhythm,
swans twirl a ballet
girdling  through agile quills aflight
and pivot in choreography of glazed moondance
till wings leave at  finale's point  when icy November appears on a graywashed stage.

Killers Also Die

We walk on the final blanket that covers all
The earth is the womb all humans will transit to the court of the maker
I have searched through the skin of the earth..where are the killers of kudirat? Where is Abacha? The bowel of the earth does not refuse food,it swallows all
Even killers also die!

Premium Member Rapid Transit

Rapid Transit By Miracle Man August 30, 2020 My mind is like a playground, where endless thoughts skitter rapidly. Pining to be heard they appear unbound, but few morph into words, to be displayed in ink. When the bell rings and recess ends, most vaporize, because they stink.
