"Online, I'm so bold,"
Then speechlessness meets your eyes,
Real words, fear takes hold.

Freedom from Speech

   Speechlessness is a state of mind
                                  ~ Mindlessness is not a state of speech

Shock and Awe

shock 
                       electric, astound 
           zapping, traumatizing, reacting 
 speechlessness, surprise, spellbound, thrill 
           bedazzling, gaping, impressing 
                     majestic, awestruck,
                                   awe

The Sound of Silence

Crickets sit chirping 
and echo our speechlessness
at the night’s beauty.

Death, Be Not Proud

Death, be not so proud,
Today might roar thine dark clouds,
Be not still so proud,
Morrow, life will call aloud,
Thou shalt in a crowd wear shroud.

Topic: death, life

Poet’s note: COVID has been wreaking havoc all around. The other day I saw a picture of a newly made crematorium burning scores of pyres, dead bodies awaiting last death rites, the funereal shadows creeping slowly by, pre-monsoon dark clouds hanging overhead, and it looked as if Death has still been spreading its ill-gotten empire all around. Silence possessed me for a few seconds and from the resulting speechlessness was born this Tanka.

Spellbound

Kurt had enough of being told to adhere to streamlined expectations

He took revenge on prescriptions’ illiterate figures of speechlessness


Inconsebustible he recosseted the unsetentionable avarocosotamy

Carfumbled the extrocorision intempofandizzled sleptorous fimbra 

Concoctivized a streptafoam pinclept sklinted slotomatized cundles

Hailfathomed a muncturous cleapage recoclusterated all deflopture

‘Ayotojeh’ he scrouted ‘ Funaply carbunculates vintorious lampture’

‘Evangelolitic monopolytigizes confliderate whoopsical avaricedom’

Coslapterouly he whiptilustered the lonctaphile illiterascible glout

In nuptohabituous cluspers he hoiled rebellioconformized plisture

Idiosynchrotably contrapeteous unidecliption levantered in troads


In a final twist of meaning and superior recognition of scluptitude

Kurt lived happily as he claimed victory over convention and checks

Split In Half

In the speechlessness 
of your breathlessness,
I breathe vigorously
to arouse your former arising,
too afraid to touch 
a corpse in the making. 
Could another's spare years 
restore your time? 
Could another's breath 
bring back your air?
Could my hyperventilation, 
like our blended heart,
be split in half to share?

Speechlessness

Sometimes I get trapped in speechlessness
Wondering if my words are less
Weighing no stress
An address to address quiet minds from distress

Holding my voice in hand
I thrive to speak my mind

Openly, freely and quietly
Stressing on bitter truths with all serenity
Boldly confronting all fears clothed in insanity
Moving away from the ordinary
I find myself in a garden with my diary

And remain speechless

Virtual Reality

Deep as defeat as conspicuous
As the influx of presentiment

Passion is aimless humility
Panic is native to injury

Reasoning divulging odium
Sparkles unchosen but chemical

Puritans' speechless delivery
Idles in syllables neutral to
Carpet biology tapestries
Woven in Persian but personal
Surfaced in diamonds and sodium
Burnishing flavorful scaffolding
Sauntering over the savagery
Blanketing social impurity

Witnesses! Silence the speechlessness!
Caution the ignorant eagerly!

Woe as the end of the suffering
Millions of eyes as the visual.

Constipated Confinement

turning down the volume
that is what i am thinking as i am blinking
grabbing the last bottle of cream soda
that is my mental escape from a wrath i cannot comprehend
imagining you naked and ready to go down
that is the way i uplift myself while you are bringing me down 

the grenade in my brain is on the brink of exploding
the balloon of my self esteem is at the dangerous edge of imploding
the merger of the two is unseen due to the sour blindness of the moment
the spittle burns like a near death experience on Christmas day
the accusations decapitate like a merciless machete moonlighting
the end is the beginning of the minuscule additional
our love has been uprooted by a hurricane so petty and unnecessary
speechlessness post descension is the new loquatious
bye bye sweet valentine era....it was nice pre-post-construction

Retrospective Phrasis Part 2 Recited

COMMONPLACE PHRASIS  part 2
Humble stirrings in our own sphere,
a diary of retrospective truths,of passing
fads of intervening years,a reasonance of
lyrical feelings,hand-penned.These mysterious
centres of thought formed into poetry
pictures,intangible ,but to feel& see,
a speechlessness,a fascination of agreeable
word music,realised &conceived as a talking 
glass of emotion&intellect.Moving images writ
large throwing sunlight on the mundane,with
a capacity to evoke emotion,an interest in novelty
colours imagination,encapsulates everlasting truths 
striking chords common to all,longlasting,ongoing satisfying.
From  Retrospective a commonplace book 2009
Listen to me recite this part phrasis on youtube under my pen name ichthys chiro

*Silence*...the air is dead...I'm 
alone inside ...I won't even 
speak...for what's the 
purpose?...no one will hear my 
words...no one around to 
understand....my innermost 
thoughts and emotions licked 
and sealed only to remain in 
this very large 
envelope....*Silence*..reticent
speechlessness... where are 
you in my time of need?...the 
person that I'm meant to 
love...to connect with mentally 
and physically...at this point I 
could just use someone to TALK 
to...*Silence*...thoughts of 
violence are reoccurring....I'm 
screaming at the top of my 
lungs... but even after that the 
silence has once again 
returned...*THOUGHT 
THOUGHT UNCONTROLLABLE 
THOUGHTS... all control is 
lost...I'm overwhelmed with 
pain and sorrow...my will to live 
is gone...if only someone had 
LISTENED...*DEAD SILENCE*

My Love

Grip my hips,
The taste of your lips,
Gliding finger tips,
Whispering lullabies in my ear,
Hold me tight with a love embrace,
Leaving speechlessness in my trace,
Sing me the words “I love you so”
Tell me you will never let me go,
Gaze longingly in my eyes when face to face,
Be the strength in my weaknesses,
Lead my heart on a wild beating race,
Love me with tender everlasting kisses,
Forgive me for my sinfulness,
Be the arms that will catch me when I fall,
All I want is you,
No matter what we go through,
Lead me through the path of truth,
You are forever my love that I will always hold onto.

The Modern Woman

if you call her a mere housewife
you've only provoked an infinite conversation
on how, and why ,is a womans life
ready they are to take a national stance
like an old,dusty,but effiecient rifle

tired of familiar house and chores
unmindful of the dishes,they can lie
while they pursue much ,much,more
beyond and farther than meets the eye
whetted also to be an economies core

unto the existence of prfessonalism they cling
than house-work,the world is so changed now
and gender is more of an equal thing
tha speechlessness,like a dumb cow
the woman won't settle for lesser anything

patient slow walking as she was created
the woman has creeped into anoutspoken figure
than for the peculiarity of the breasts,or long curls
twisted ,or seperated
she has taken her place,among noble heights

Blaze

They say beauty is skin deep
I've found an exception
For yours is a form
That of perfection

You are smart
You are sweet
And filled with mystic

You leave me
At a loss for words
For your beauty is more stunning
Than any man deserves

For you posses such a fire
Of which i can't help
To desperately desire

Not only does your beauty
Distinctly divide you, 
Your personality alone
Is what absolutely defines you

Never have i met
A more brilliant young woman
You are so very rare
For you have the pair
Of beauty and cunning

Your as hot as the sun
Yet there are no words
That truly describe you
I could write a whole book
And still not define you

For you are the kind of woman
That a man of the past
Would give a whole empire
Just to kiss you ,at last

Often it's intimidating
To proposition you into dating
For men render into speechlessness
In the presence of a goddess
