vocation to bloom
puzzled buds in dizziness ...
spring smiles soothingly

Tell me, Mr. Dog;
What is your vocation?
barking without biting,
disturbing people’s sleep,
and eating bones?...

My ambitions elitist
reality bourgeois
My palate continental
taste buds still raw
My ambition ennobled
vocation unhailed
My reality sordid
—future travailed

It could be implied
that those with all
the luck in this life,
will find their true
vocation at death!
“Furthermore”
It could be implied
that those without
will also!

He wanted to spend a life of chastity             
so off he went to a Jesuit seminary                    
till he saw pretty damsels during communion       
and out the window flew his cherished vocation!...

Art is a talent,
   a gift,a vocation,
  it is not a  product ...
  So you can't buy it
  on the  supermarket ...
  But if the  result of that art
  is well executed,
  it will be sold
  at the market 
  as a product
  as well......

the beauty
     of line
poised,passive
    silent,
             perused:
a surface
       beyond
thought and
  craft,
     ideas,
circle life:
vocation illumes
the essential,
enlivens
enriches
       labour
with
a 
symmetry
to preserve
       pride
once again...

All hail the village mortician
  his bearing, proper patrician

Sterling the gent's reputation
  throughout his chosen vocation

A man of dignity and reserve
  whose stare can a ghost unnerve

Frankly, he makes me quite nervous
  though one day I'll be needing his service...

Is a vocation still a thing?
Or have we all lost our zing,
And replaced it with a sting.

Is a vocation still a thing?
Or are we blind to anything but bling,
And now happy to trade drugs in ring. 

Is a vocation still a thing?
Or have we lost the ability to cling,
To such a noble thing....

hope it's not a psych thing
think twice
there fly'in there soaring through Caelum
had my way
 she'd fly in for vacation
 bring her vocation
think thrice
roam through there Caelus
per my sin for you
 say's the boss:
per boss:
while your at it
he say's,  consult the dead too

I guess you can say
That we are dissident's
From the Cross
Cleansed of sin
Fore God has offered us
A new beginning
From
Which we are gaining
Immortality
We have a new Heaven
From which
We are gaining
A new devotion and
There is a new vocation'
From which there will be
No recompense[ or recourse

Tis a grand vocation 
to be an inspiration 

Tis a winsome aspiration
 may be an oblation

May take some time 
along with perspiration

Along with dedication
may come a solved equation

Tis a winsome aspiration
may come with some elation.

Tis a grand vocation
to be an inspiration.

E ncrusted amidst sensation,
L ust, and temptation,
U rged towards frustration,
S uddenly back to elation,
I ntangible desperation, hence
V eneering mystification...
E nticing words of vocation,

                                         Pen with motivation…
                                         Pen with relaxation…...

in his head
it's wanting to come
you want the calendar too
 say next spring
six spring's to mind
six head's for brain's
 six could be a mess of time
effort the money
your six behavior
got it down packed 
and your set in your six mind
vocation is it down to a tee
with money on top
your thinking seven
but your brain still six...

Is Poetics
  a poem or a process

Is Love
  a lover or romance

Is Art 
 a painting or a vision

Is Worship
  a place or deliverance 

Is Freedom
  a word or a statement

Is Family
  just blood that we share

Is Duty
  an oath or vocation

Is Truth
  just a wish—undeclared

If there is life, there is struggle.
If there is struggle, there is competition, conflict.
If there is competition, conflict, there is aspiration.
If there is aspiration, there is ambition.
If there is ambition, there is aim.
If there is aim, there is vocation.
If there is vocation, there is goal.
If there is goal, there is success....

Spreading whiteness before my eeys
waiting for letters,
letters making words
making syllabic riffs.

Empty page reflects blankness
of a mind's vocation:
No Thinking Allowed ...
to no purpose.  Its time to trade
this page for prose.

Unamused muse empty now
in an 8 x 11 world
of stark, bright wood pulp
pressed flat as my brain....

Like the sight of Dandelions at an open venerate sepulcher.
Of the ardent touch, precipitously hailing two other's semblances to erudite tacit merit.
Voracious of the petal's vocation.
Voracious of the petal, so insatiably, so securely vulnerable, does she... does she not...
Delicate, denoted as such an inane, yet so gravely a significant....

Kings may come, kings may go, 
I go on forever. 
Letters in a constant flow, 
Recording each endeavour. 
On the walls and in the halls 
You may find that I vex, 

Waxing tall or shrinking small 
And alternating sex. 
Seas I ford, I go abroad 

Heeding my vocation, 
Evading eyes and compromise, 
Resourceful, I claim all disguise, 
Even bilocation!...

My job is to make the unlikely happen
  my passion driven to embrace the bliss

My vocation seeks to find the answers
  my avocation wanders—soul remiss 

My intellect bargains away the hours
  my spirit embraces each moment now

My story when told is about the journey
   that road I traveled—beyond time allowed

Idea


Dream a nation; take a vacation.
Autopilot does not need direction.
Claim a notion; works a vocation.
Words do not have to have perfect punctuation.


Message in a bottle; totally random.
Chaos Theory.  A hat may not fit.
Ring the chapel bells and then leap on a tandem.
Tyger eyes watch it go by without realizing it.

I am on vacation;
A human being died  on Earth;
Live the life;
Yeah I've died here on Earth I'm dead;
Die this life here on Earth 
and yet in the twinkling of 
 I live in heaven 
My vacation is over 
I go back to work I leave this earth
Back I go back  to life to my vocation;
Back to work I go to heaven;

Am I safe now?
Are we safe?

Is it safe to listen here?
To speak of over there?

Is Earth safe to sing?
Safe to dance with?
Safe for new birth?
To spin past romance?

Does life matter
if no one's noticing?
Remembering?
If no one's vocation
is to sacredly listen?
while all creation refills silent gaps.

Are we safe now?
Reborn silent angels,
angels of light,
pushing back this dark night....
