Short Unstirred Poems

Night often falls
with the matter unsettled

The pudding unstirred
—as choices recant

Dora's cat goes outside
On a chair she sits with pride
Enjoying her view of the birds
They are in the grass unstirred
Chirping happily is unheard...

Poetic intention
exceeding my words
Meanings now idle
truth left unstirred 

Marching unspoken
 Marching unheard
Marching without me
—to march undeterred

Existentially you think
you know me 
having eaten a slice 
of my mind 
delicious you think
the bubbling froth 
of this poetry
peppered with sprinkles
of rising undertones 
the sugar depth charged
unstirred, yet 
touch the lip of my cup
you’d feel the burn 
the tongue means to speak
unhoneyed
the kiss stings 
the pain 
swollen 
and 
sweet







Candide Diderot. '24...

A dawn born
growing into morn
A life is led
a soul is fed
No truth to divine
as blind to any sign
Sounds unheard
feels unstirred 
Wind and breeze
to weather and appease
Guided by a Hand
even with a taken stand
Divine powers of no limit
none to stand against kismet
The mystery of the beyond
a wave of an angelic wand
Silent stars in outer space
ignite light on Earth face
A voice I now could hear
the signs are quite clear
Time to the soul brace
and pray for God’s grace....

Are thoughts with no hope 
Reason with no cope 
Fleeting shadows with no scope
Shifting patterns with no symmetry
Substance with no chemistry
Allergenetic to the word of the birds 
Words gone with the wind
Wishing wells, Words unheard
Witts steer clear, drama unstirred
3 blind mice tick and tock on my clock
Silently, Grinding my gears 
Bursting bubbles gum
Carefully, Biting my tongue 
Nerves fumbled with murs and mumbles
Ready to rumble
At any rate!!! Justice stay humble!!!...
