A Simple Choice

Walking among our clouds of doubt
Our fate is sealed
with innocent ambiguity
Our steps are laden
with blind uncertainty
Our yearnings, like cliffs
fall away to guiltless verity

Doors to Verity

I live in this imaginary world,
A world away from reality.
I fear to open the doors,
The doors to unveiled verity.
I shut my eyes and wish,
Wish forever to cling to this fantasy.

Cigar, the Might

Once there was a man called Cigar, the might
His wonder-statement “Might is always right”
Verity when supposed never
Wind somebody up for sure
Bloody this Cigar could only be a movie star. right?

Mainyu's Refrain

Innervation kidnapped reality
Stark vibes nimbly scoured verity
From the hands of universality
Innervation kidnapped reality
At the forefront of totality
Paradise delivered clarity
Innervation kidnapped reality
Stark vibes nimbly scoured verity

Branches Hide Dark Trout

branches hide dark trout
swimming beneath truth of light
floating secret lives
in deep wanton quiet pools
verity lives amongst them

Love That Jazz

Another Beiderbecke
Compact disc
Exacting feverous,
Gratifying harmonious
Idyllic Jazz.
Kings, Lords, make noble
Obeisance portraying
Qualifying
Ratifications.
Some, tendering
Unqualified verity, when
Exuberant youth
Zonked!

When Verity Was

When Verity was only five she’d kiss the boys, oh how they cried
When Verity was nearly ten, they squirmed when she kissed them again
She had some birthdays, one or two, the boys began to form a queue
When Verity became fifteen, a queue so long there’d never been

Fate, My Friend

Fate, my friend, why thus treat me?
You a friend has always been;
Why should I a verity refuse?
I never could your amity choose,
But years of forced camaraderie and stay
Have taught what I perhaps coudn't learn in a day:
That to me you're an unabandoning friend!

Unsaid

if the truth is told
when we disconnect
another missed called
another blank text

if the feelings that hide
behind the heart's wall
are pushed to the bottom
hidden from all

if the thoughts spin around
circling inside my head
unspoken verity
better left unsaid

Painting a Vermeer Verity

deceiving
            the eye
with emphasis &
              suggestion

stresses
       of the fanciful
evidence
      of the significant
with
                implications
  illusions
     enigmas

        connotations
                  in the eye
of
the
beholder

Deep Cut

If they cut 
 my meat,
meat  they will  not find ...
If they extract away
 my eyes,visions they
will not  find ...
If they break me
the legs,
bones not
there will be ...
But they burn
my poems, they
will discover
the whole verb,
all humanity verity
since
the genesis ...!

The Consternation

do not bore me with facts
I like my channel
We rolled our eyes

The truth is there
but her channel speaks of fake news
She believes what she believes

when did they stop making TV news channels
Verity that the news was accurate
before reporting it as news?

This is the consternation

Wishing Well

I keep falling
in deeper water,
sinking like a desirous penny
to the bottom of your well
where pretty things
no longer thrive
and love is
a shade of gray

I'm swimming in the mouth
of murky dreams
and my heart
is no longer transparent,
she's wading
in a smutty film
of verity

how ugly

Live Within the Gray Areas

gray areas  
exist  
within life 
never are there
clear cut 
black or white 
aspects 
all can be seen 
from a verity of
vantage points 
depending upon the
individuals 
state of mind at 
the time of 
experience 
live with an open mind 
live with an open heart 
live within the gray areas

Versifier - a Communion

Versifier - A communion.


The sacrifice, adore, psalms - divine,

Inner devotion is emotion, commotions of thought,

Truth - from estranged proverbs, severe afflictions of the sacred heart,

Verity is fact, the axiom domain,

The path - flames of sentiment,

A sacred grail, of poured emotions.

~ Greater Before Days ~

~ Love lost, the aching- desire, burning-within, frail, though; will I rise, greater- before days; because promised, hope- chance; verity my faith these gentle-whispers- echo-the-opportunity, and so it is to them-I- answer, fall before. For this; God; I-know would never negate. ~

Veracity

Can truth exist
  within a vacuum

Can it stand alone
  without listener or teller

Can its words contain value
  left to themselves

Can its verity outlive 
  its many disciples

Can its hope transcend
  all circumstance and change

Can truth given unto itself 
  —exist at all

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2015)

Lunar Surprise

You can’t embrace
the moment forever
whose verity 
at essence ungrained

By definition
it must rename itself
once mentioned
decried and disclaimed

What came upon you
to die in place
where vacuums exit
in time and space

Regenerating
from life’s cocoon
and starting over
—Amayasvan moon

Know What the Truth Is

K-now what the truth is, 
R-efrain from going astray; 
I-t's time to see the light, 
S-eptember seventh Thursday. 

A-im to know what the truth is, 
L-et the real facts flow; 
B-e sentient of dangerous deceit, 
E-vade the tricks of foe. 
R-eview or evaluate 
T-he verity of a piece; 
O-pen your eyes and mind, know what the truth is.

Everything You See

M-eet everything you see, 
A-iming for positive outlook; 
E-arly January twenty-second, turn the page of a book.

R-ead everything you see, 
I-n the clarity of your eyes; 
A-ssimilate the ultimate truth, 
N-ot the deceitful lies.
Z-ealously learn to analyze
A-ll the matters in verity; 
R-ealize that God has willed
E-verything you
S-ee.

The Path We Walk Along

Paving a road of two identities
will anoint figure to stained air

Fabricating a path to completion
will unify abstraction with muse

Engraving a dream into reality
will create bliss in one soul

Carving chaste into immoral clay
will embellish tints of whim and choice

Inventing verity inside of one man
will adjust the balance of all.

Scales Fall From Your Eyes

S-cales fall from your eyes, 
A-ugust thirtieth Wednesday; 
R-ealize the whole verity
A-way from the
H-earsay.

J-ust the truth suddenly comes, 
A-iming to show the reality; 
N-ever turn a blind mind, 
E-vade the deceit from enemy.

A-llow your life to keep
S-taying far from the lies; 
P-ristine word will do, 
A-s scales fall from your eyes.

Blessing For a Child

May your feet be always guided 
to find a righteous road.
And may your hands be nimble 
to ease a trying load.
And may your ears discern
stories from sincerity.
And may your eyes be clear and bright 
to ascertain all verity.
And may your mouth and tongue
sing joyous truth exquisitely.
And, finally, may your heart rejoice
in love and hope and family.
