Life tragedies, pain
Wretchedness, gloom, and sorrows
Those destroy man’s joy.

Verse
The moonlight of spring runs fast
Into its sensuous nightingale,
As the fading shadows break out
In some kind of wretchedness
Rooting backward if it were against my face
What an astonished contemplation!

Time moves on
as on this earth
men live and die each day
Humanity wallows
in wretchedness
Men steal, lie, kill
plunder one another
People deceive each other
- no end to pain, suffering, agony
Yet, wretched life or not
Life must go on

ABC
Feeling a twinge of wretchedness
From my ugly past.
I was plagued by misery and
treated like old dirty trash.
While existing in a dark cage in
my own afflicted mind.
Despair, disgust and fear was
not hard to find.
Lost, as stygian shadows crawl
upon my soul.
Only a pretender as I played my
role.

Rhyme
A-n endless laughter's zone
R-ejects the wretchedness;
J-oyful place of occasion
O-bliterates the area's mess.
C-heerful day's domain
O-mits the dark from light;
N-ew dawn of pleasure
R-eiterates the pure delight.
A-mount of mirth is huge
D-ay seven in September;
E-cstasy fills your home,
Z-one of an endless laughter.

Acrostic
Unbind me from this chains of wretchedness,
Hold me close away from this loneliness,
A dance of love and lust,
In this sea of lies, I seek trust.
You could be my ruin,
But I tend to keep on going
You're the heroin to this drug addict,
The bourbon to this alcoholic.
Be the air that I breathe,
This night's heat that I seek...

In the shadow of this tree,
Judas mapped his misery,
But saw no finger-post, save one:
A beckoning oblivion.
So up he climbed, with labored breath,
To where he could devise his death.
The twisted tree, by time distressed,
Would ratify his wretchedness,
And let him fall — his loss complete,
The seamless sky his winding sheet.

Misery
Pure misery
With its evil ropes
Suffocating suffocating.
Wretchedness
Now before your eyes
Slices slices
Happiness into many pieces
And staring down at the ground
You see the pieces fall
And then staring up
Moving moving
Comes the darkness of your thoughts
Terrible
All terrible
You surrender
Putting your hands into the air
Waiting waiting.

Free verse
Caught up in this circle sphere of integration; I swoon
as the feeling of worthlessness overwhelms me.
Nothing seems to remedy as this depression lulls me
into its claws of wretchedness.
Sweet and salty smiles that slink into your mind
seems to melt the drowning feeling of despondency.
Still there is the burning bubbling vibes of insanity that circumvents any relief.

ah my beloved I must confess
this sinfulness that comes about
throughout the universe on a single star
gliding across the galaxies connecting
heart and mind in a single sphere
why i am quite taken upon
such graciousness a meaningful need
separating us between a doting eye
of keen awareness oh how you confess
in pure lowly wretchedness
hindering my melancholy mind

Ballad
Engulfed in pain,
abyss of yearn,
lifetime punishment for loving you.
Eternal connection,
shattered in an instance,
consort became strangers.
Wretchedness shackles my feet,
freedom, I seek.
To live anguish free,
afar from escapism.
Remnants of union up in blaze,
turning to ashes,
returning to universe,
in the stillness of time,
to abide infinitely
amongst the stars.

I do not know?
Oh, shrill lark, just breathe. You rage too well.
Seek no comfort in wretchedness.
Renounce the gossamer moon, curse starlight
with a breathless voice - if you must - but let love be.
As the saddest tale fades after telling,
undistinguishable kisses fade like dewdrops.
Seasons alter, you will love again and love better
laughing unabashed, at the memory of this gentle injury.

Absent-minded, automatic
cyclic, circle, systematic
psycho, symptom, sick, somatic
spill the words right out my mouth.
Never-ending, contin-u-ous,
flowing, flapping, super-fluous,
lewd and lavish, misconstrued this
wretchedness which runs right out.
(have you ever been talking nervously to someone realizing at the same time that you're saying too much and should stop but can't???)

hello
it is weird....
because I know we've talked a few times today, but I don't remember what was said.
i can't decide whether dulling my mind is a good thing or not
wretchedness is a trip...
and, not to weigh heavy onya,
you inspire and enlighten me... my God, coral! you carry so much with such grace.
I wish i could make it easier
'til then, I'lll just try to keep my heart in the right place.

Free verse
in a haze of torment
a dozen thoughts raging within
helpless, lost
alone in the crowd
searching for that better way
for that less harsh day
and for that pristine, unattainable moment
when the torment and the strife and the rage and the sorrow and the loss and the wretchedness of the dark helplessness within
fades into nothingness
and vanishes into the distance
far,
so very far away...

I do not know?
You entered my lair again
uninvited I suppose an yet
I welcomed your arousal
why you'd become quite
the trouble maker posing
as the Duke of Hungary
this mere thought of you
the sheer chanting hymns
glorified a selfish need
sorted comforting healing
wretchedness borrowed
yesterdays appetizers by noon
cackling awakened too soon
to withering morbid laughter
gripping a tainted silver spoon

Crown of Sonnets
It is before your very eyes
That sons grow to be men
While under the same guise
Daughters turn into women.
You have seen many births
Of tears and nakedness;
Even of countless deaths
In riches and wretchedness.
You have lived many years
From aphelion to perihelion,
And witnessed many fears
Of the inhabitants of Zion!
Oh, I wonder what you are,
I marvel at what you are not.
You are not so close nor far,
But you are a life I have got!

Rhyme
Bah, rake together the bloody pieces,
if you leave them lying about, they stain.
Any good, that memories hold, decreases,
as does future joy you hope to obtain.
Embrace solitary stillness, silence.
Rediscover a solid foundation.
Gladness can thrive in romance’s absence.
Expired connections lead to damnation.
Clean up wretchedness before it bitters
killing chances before you are aware.
Forge yourself into a net that glitters.
Leave the pain and sorrow to just reap air.

Traces of pain haunt your reveries,
veils of sadness your beautiful face;
you're where demons of wretchedness
render you helpless, where fear is
relentless and respite seems light years away;
where love is improbable, dreams become
nightmares that gnaw at your soul like a
nagging regret. Glimmers of promise
will lighten your sad heart and visions of
gladness will one day come true;
believe in your goodness, this badness will fade
and you'll sing once again to love's sweet serenade.
