reality of a high horse
unreal, nevertheless
satisfying as it’s unnerving neighs.
nerve endings gallop

Seasonal precipice
eErie haze, becalm water
elongating obscurity
Binded
promisingly adorned cirrus
tinged fuscia, luster
Ascending radience
captivating        
Still

Money flows in and out like a torrent
Which I find unnerving and very abhorrent
The Golden Years Ha!
Peace and joy ever aft
That's a giggle, my bank account is dormant...

If you were on telly, how would you feel
Terrified, comfortable, or attack it with zeal
Though this old boar
Has been on before
Still seems unnerving and a wee bit surreal...

Kavanaugh Self Serving

We did discover Kavanaugh is self serving,
And like Trump he has become unnerving;
Wears us out,
And no doubt;
Supreme Court Justice position undeserving.

God Placed A Curse

So what could possibly be worser that worse,
And over entire countryside all of it disperse;
Started swerving;
Was unnerving;
On Trump family God had placed a curse.

Republicans Self-Serving and Unnerving

Republicans are not straight  and swerving,
And always have proved to be self-serving;
Never savior;
Poor behavior;
Trying our patience while being unnerving.

Jollity lifts spirits.
		Joshing’s great. Let’s hear it!
		Jocose friends who, with wit,
		jazz things up are a hit!
		Jabs can be unnerving;
		jibes can be self-serving.
		Jesting must be gentle.

Unnerving news, it lit the fuse,
And at "point-blank" range, I was shot
But then we found ourselves amused-
That you were dead and I was not!

*This is a silly piece, just written at the time, I suppose, for the sake of irony...

                  Unknown 
               chaotic, kooky 
  exciting, unsettling, grounding 
 Books, Articles, Origin, Universe 
 invigorating, unnerving, cultivating 
           beneficial, plausible 
                 Knowledge....

As I Walk in contemplation 
I find the swiftness of change 
to be unnerving at times 
rules are revised without warning
variations come and lives are altered
deprived of rhyme or reason
I'm astounded by the anger 
questioning change creates....

Calling obsessions
Delivering impressions 
Painted murals 
Blanket views

Hearing directions
Leaving detections
Speech is deserving
Voice unnerving

Payment due
Blanket view

Belly dancing can be unnerving especially if they're not attached
You turn away, think you're hallucinating or just becoming detached
It's not a mental disorder
Though you're on the border 
Drugs could be to blame but mentalness seems more apt...

Like a gentle caress 
Song and dance
smiles and clues

Or unnecessary chatter
Cracks on my brain
Blah is the banter 
unnerving refrain

like a dangerous dream
Rhythm and blues
peppered w/ distress

Hypnotic laughter 
Eyes on the soul 
memorable words
You can't release the Hook...

Engulfed in darkness
The creeping abyss
The soil beneath me
The night gods above me
The ebony coffin
Awaiting me therein
The blood of the wound
Drawn by the thorn
The darkness of Oblivion
Awaiting Sleeps horn
So I wait for soothing death,
Waiting for my final breath....

CONCEPTUALISTA
impenetrable
  fascinations
signified
ever
 in transition
of the trivial
visions
  validated
with
  unnerving
    perverse
provocations
 subversive
    & startling
extremes

generated
 to view
    inspire
      awaken
        surprise
 of
one mind
  into another

i hate people in sterile places

its unnerving

to see them leached of colour,

needles in their skin

like punctured paper

And prodded by white coats , trying to find an answer

Can’t they see the problem?

fake flowers do nothing to lessen the paint of pale walls

sinking into her eyes...

Fear slithers in.
The snake in my belly
uncoils.
Wrestling restlessness
gives way
to unnerving unease.

I watch and wait.
The snake silences its strike
for now.
I begin to pace.
Anguished anxiety anticipates
as yearning’s yellow yarn
wraps me in the afghan of fear
and the future bites me again....

I looked up into the eyes of a panther
she looked enraged and ready to eat
a carnivore who could eat our flesh pre-kill
her opulent eyes were unnerving and terrifying;

a slow smile came to her lips
I felt like prey
where would I run? how long would the chase take?
Big cats break your back and start with your head....

Greased, thoughtful, sad but..
generating beauty from sadness
Saturating the body in the earths finest ales,
Sound waves as variable as the sea,
Breaking at chance intervals of..
unnerving calm.
Almost like cutting through foam,
where pockets of air appear from nowhere,
allowing sounds to reverberate around the gaps provided....

The cat was looking at him funny
His house had invisible cameras
Refused he to partake of food
Choosing to lock himself up
Eventually they came for him
Put him in a straight jacket
One couldn’t help but feel..
The unnerving chill in the air
As the shrill siren came to life
Delivering him to his new home
