Untamed before me,
Crucified for verities,
Cultivated one....

How many waves of ephimeral life has my soul ridden throughout space and time

unknown to me is and so it will remain for it is of all verities the most sublime!

innate
roots
        of identity,
a circular
            narrative
on a trampoline
              of emotion:
a voyage
          of discovery
of private
              passion
to express
to caress
             to impress
yet...possess..

Tactile Contrast: real Axe and all ow.
iahn the liahn i rwr and i meo
Anon-animas  no 'his Tree' and no Tale.
Cainst blind quotal status now hold Time to rail!
sine-pole verities always true,
To which were subscribed unqualified Coo's.
Causal science was set up to deal:
Autonomous self, rationality, free will....

The skilled have fashioned melodies,
the keystrokes of the mind,
proclaiming hopes and verities,
extolling humankind;
colours unbeknown'st to us
do hover and distill,
and splash, now they're synonymous
with God's almighty will.

Might we as students of the art
assume a kindred tone,
interpret measures of the heart
'til theirs and ours are one;
re-craft with notes mellifluous
the stateliness of Brahms,
sonorities of Mahler,
noble men, brothers in arms?...

The moon was moving
stealthily in wilderness.
Time was running out
tracing the shape.

I let her go, the
comely thing, putting on
hold, the teetering
poem.

Running faster than light, the 
words catch you in midstream.
A warlord wants to put on
a helmet in night.

It was raining sparks and
cinders. You walk along the
redoubts, obliterating
simmering footsteps.


I am not a loser 
dancing in the pit of snakes. 
Bring the sweetness of venom.
I am alive.

Verities poems expose
Voicing realities
Valued by the spirit
Vows of heart, woes of soul
Valiant faith smiting doubts
Virtues, maxims, adage
Volumes found in Scriptures.*

*2Timothy 3:15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

Powered by molecules 
which continue to strike 
    each other 
with force 
The evening turns electric 
      we are 
 transformed 
into 
   something altogether new
Let's move with the flow 
Change is the essence of life 
This dance continues all night 
   and on into morning 
We shouldn't waste time 
   on frivolities 
Our atomic fate awaits 
   us during 
another electric evening
as power surges 
  old verities 
are swept away 
   with the night wind...

“Poetry is verity none so perfect as mine. lol”

Without verity how boring would that be
Each differently created through thoughts and dreams
Mine is not yours and yours is not mine

Thank God,
Or we would all be wasting our time

What does Verity mean in the Bible?
1 : the quality or state of being true or real. 2 : something (such as a statement) that is true especially : a fundamental and inevitably true value such eternal verities as honor, love, and patriotism....

    The sorrowful, dolorous butterfly
         walks along  the  twisty , tough road.
         Its beauty  is always rocked by
           stormy ,potential chimera.
       The gory,  butterfly
           is frequently covered  with
              the deathly, ashen stars.
       it wails unremittingly , searching
     for the ecstatic ,alluring  rivulet.
 The perpetual, unending hillock
  is suffused with the enlightened verities
flowering like the light of diamond.

Wasn't that the name of a rock band?
Or perhaps something from Star Trek? 
The world was not created in 7 days
  However, after Adam and Eve ate the deadly 
apple the world changed
The metaphor is excellent - The Bible is a poetry book 
The light from the past still has relevance
Even if we are now in the computer age
The old verities still have power
The world exists 
So do we
You can scoff at  existence 
Find it a kind of cosmic joke
But it has been said before 
Readers - This is not our fate...
