Blip

This is a short poem. 
Not a long one like the rest. 
(not haiku)
This is about time, 
and saying a lot in a small space.
Updates to follow.
Be quiet... (calm)

nothing much to see here
miniature ethereal faerie boy
sharing a decorated porcelain teapot
with baby runt of the litter kitty,
world problems solved in an hour
updates posted tomorrow...

I entertain for many
They sometimes fall asleep when I speak.
I can be scary or funny
Loving or daring.
People come to me for updates,
news and gossip alike.
I can be big or small.
I can show old and new.
You can find me almost everywhere.
Come and find me, your TV...

Inventions of the mind aimed at physical manifestation
Developing into a new or higher outcome
Extensively flexible and so open to renewals and updates
Abstract bridges connecting thinking and reality
Sadly, the grave yard is its biggest store...

Helicopter 

My lessons where many 
Some hard to do
I learned my theory 
Constant updates on safety too 
I crashed into swimming pools 
Simulation learning for crew 
Then came the day up on my own
All off the above I truly fell in love 
For the fear is near but the training is clear...

J-ust broadcast the news, 
O-n air and online; 
A-ll updates are spoken, 
N-ever cease feeding the mind.

M-any a TV viewer
I-s watching you everyday; 
R-egardless of the prime programs, 
A-ll they want is what you say.
N-etwork's rating is high, 
D-oing well, ready to cruise; 
O-n the twenty-fourth of June, just broadcast the news....

I love my third hand iPad
We have a lot in common
It can't handle updates for starters
Anything after 2013
Right after I turned 40
What you see is what you get
It's happy to be connected
Mid sentence looking something up
It will forget everything
When asked to do anything
It's sometimes just too much 
And it shuts down

It has a few dents too...

A house of words
Alphabets, vowels and consonants 
Syllables and phases
Numbers and symbols
To make us laugh, sad, wonder, puzzled, entertain
Inspire us, motivation, and uplift 
Keep us busy
Give us knowledge, insight, wisdom
Facts and dates, measurements and updates
History and current affairs
The house that gives life meaning and purpose

I'm on my phone more often than not
Checking my status and all the updates I've got
There's always something there interesting to see
When I finally look up, my family's staring at me

My youngest says Dad, let's play a game
If you could decide, what would be your phones name
I have no clue, do you...she said of course
I've got the perfect name, let's call it divorce......

daily updates
forecast, rehearsed
stifling soul's spontaneity
gravitates yet toward the light
pulsating within our core
as bliss beats renew
divine splendour

truths so affirmed
valid in their own right
yet err when symbolised
unable to cross the river twice
even as the void too shifts
flickering at its whim
inverting polarity

What I always do is devote
All of the time to my remote
Trying to tell if there is a quirk
Causing connection not to work.

I was on the computer one day
When message I saw, it did say
Next update will be called infinity
And no more updates will there be.

Now no longer will I have to change
And my mind mentally derange
And never need a tune up again
After your patience is wearing thin....

Reframe the vision they see of your life
make it seem real easy put on a show;
They tend to wield your past just like a knife; 
Selfies and status updates you outgrow 
reset the loop just let them think they know;
Create an illusion laced with control; 
Put those vacant views into a black hole,
walk away turn your back on what’s toxic; 
What is visible is never the whole;
Just stack that deck become a magic trick....

The shooting happenedand  at.
University of Las Vegas at 11’:59 am.
One shooter is dead. Police not sure, there are more.
There are victtims but unknowm how many or on what shape.
Check online for updates.
Meanwhile, say prayers for all injured,.
Police did not say how many.
For now, the entire campus is a crime scene?

UNLV is 60 acres with 30,000 students.
All students are to shelter in place.

Pangie.

A delightful dawn by blossoms bewitching

A greeting just purely fetching 

Flora being fabulously flawsome

From the bestower just awesome

Expecting such updates cool

To become again a rhyming 'full'

Dashing Luck it gives me

As I find pearls from sea

Of words and phrases pure

Diving deep in a way sure

Rare flowers and so is the status

Making me to compose  a verse

Eulogising the eternal grace

Of the Helen from Carnatic race..!!...

Gray skies brewing storms
Warm humid air surronds
Air that clings sticky
One of those drear days lies ahead

Waiting is part of the day
Doctor's office _wait
Write a little while I wait
Friday_what a way to start week end

Lunch _Italian restuarant
Spaghetti with meat sauce
TV playing news clips   
Boston Marathon main topic with latest updates

Two people gone wrong
Hundreds of lives touched
If only those two men had met The Master
Before that fateful day_...

Midnight

The clock strikes twelve!
The Hiding Hyde's wake up

Sleepless nights
With blank eyes wide open

The dead ghosts of your life
Don't let your eyelids droop

Actionable entanglements
Quake your damp pillows

Overinflated remorse
Erratically updates you at night 

These midnight attacks sadly
Terminate the silent sleep 

The days pass by peacefully, but
The midnight hours are unrequited

Mother, Granny,Wife,and lover
First one hat and then the other
Babysitter, will she enlist?
Not only that she will insist

She cooks my meals and cleans the place
Welcomes warmly my embrace
Listens to poetic endeavors 
Solves the who's what's or whatever's

Feeds the dog and that old stray cat
Says what I need and where it's at
Updates the list for shopping 
Writes checks for bills non-stopping

Puts up with my every quirk
But when she's asked says, "I don't work!"...

I want to be a writer -
and like a new poker player -
I'm starting to evaluate my cards.

I post on several poetry sites 
I find syncing them kinda hard.

'Cause I'm the model of imperfection
heck, I'm the Edison of mistakes -
a teenager half-heartedly committed
to doing whatever it takes.

Does it help that I'm never happy?
That I constantly make updates?

At times I feel the proverbial cat 
chasing its own tail -
but I think I'm making progress
- like a literary snail....
