Subliminal Poems

are you delirious

I rose through the ranks ready to rumble
Panama is ours! I yelled into a jumble
Are you delirious asked a mob of thirty-three?
Guess I am for I just had my Fox News lobotomy.

Sending, receiving, a day-to-day living
With all bits and pieces that look quite alike
Once you step back, there’s no sign of retrieving
As if your body and mind went on strike
It isn’t much different kind of existence
Everything goes, as it used to, although
Something is missing, or put on a distance
Which is in practice the same, as you

Subliminal

Helium filled balloons 
Rose above the weary
Casket impaled with in
The crevice onlooker’s teary 
Dressed in black 
No one bright 
Send off to the dead
No dry eye in sight 
There is always 
A story to be told
Car crash death 
Young or old
Sickness and disease 
All ends the same 
Heart stops beating 
Soul loss is to blame
Adieu

SUBLIMINAL STUPIDITY

I thought she knew
She thought he knew
We thought they knew
They thought we knew
So not knowing
No one knew
We all knew
But weren’t sure
Of what it was
We knew

All That Matters

light, laughter, love
distilled, 

chilled into thought;

and there is no above, 
as this

is brought to ourselves,

as a rain
disproportionate

to any expectation
before birth.

more was never
an answer 

for all
our unasked questions

subliminally, 
we knew

it all
came with us 

that forever
it is the heart

of all we shall become.

Subliminal

Stimulus excreted

Sinuously invades

Subconsciously corrupts

Suggestive images

Seeded, sneakily sown

Sacrificial victim

Satiability owns

I refuse to remember
what I can never forget

Words lost to my memory,
lined deep with regret

The faster I write,
the deeper I hide

A reckoning hovers
—forgiveness denied

Subliminal Autistic State Horizontal 8

Studious at the desk, disinclination to speak,
Solid state of matter, I find impossible to pique,
Engrossed in esoteric lingo, but all in his mind,
Nonsensical gibberish, of language undefined,
 
Attempting to engage, shows no interest in me,
This room is totally empty, so far as he can see,
Abstract images, behind eyes bereft of stares,
I flick a torchlight, responsive

Prejudice Is Subliminal and Subtle

Prejudice is subliminal.
We all have it, even those of us who think we do not.
Let’s say….
Carl is humiliated and embarrassed in a bedroom with yellow flowers.
From now until he reworks the script, all bedrooms with yellow flowers are the enemy.
We loathe yellow flowers his brain tells him, not knowing why.
He never gives a yellow flower

Breath of Dreams

Quietly streaming
through the breath of dreams
in clouds
the whispers came
in colors from scarlet to midnight
with secrets known in our deepest places
where sacred words
disappear in measureless time

Words that speak
in amaranthine languages
of persona and subliminal
origins and ancestry
inexhaustible and ever present

For the leaves were talking
in their green shimmer and shake
and sway
with
words grounded to trees
spreading in patterns
on currents of chaos
in

Sublimely Subliminal

Birds cackle overhead
in the grey mews
as wind lisps around
the dead children
held in the arms of
ancient wisened trees
Whispers jump from raindrops
while my eyes flirt with imagination

Subliminal Messages

Two little girls on their way home
One got caught by a grin
The rejected, walked home, alone
While pretty and fast entered sin

A father and son sit at a table
Son is drinking his steal
When confronted with the fact
Money couldn't fix the "reel"

Never home to take up slack
Always at work, serving time
The family fears that the pull of

Subliminal Film

alpine peaks
a guitar body
a Colombian sink hole
a waxed surf board
fertile crescent silt
a half cut fig
an asterix

Orion's Belt
sun rise rays rising
Pisa's leaning tower
a rollercoaster zipping down
a dog drooling
Apollo 11 on the pad
an icicle dripping

two pair of eyes staring
cherry topped ice cream dollops 
rapid hovering hummingbird wings
time lapse glacial floe flowing
sweat on the brow of Rodin's "Thinker"

Only if you knew that you live like a God in a place my heart has found you fit to rule
only if you knew that I would be the opposite of what God would cal one of his own if I Were to find out that not only I 
 Can make you smile and

Subliminal Perception

Was it some kind of a subliminal perception?
Confusing my interpretations of a misconception.
Was it you that pulled an affectionate deception?
Forcing me into a fake deflection.
A maneuver of the circumstance selections.

A ruse, a scheme, a hoodwinked hoax.
Walking around in your personality cloaks.
Hidden persuasions,
caused my mental imagery to blurry.
"Why you dodging me now?
Sit down, there's no hurry".
