Tamarind Taciturn
Knights of the nebula pond?
Kingdom Gone, return.
Witch and wizard, wave thy wand!
Tamarind taciturn...
Knight errant by lightning struck?
O for help to call!
Cult black magic, I've got truck!
Luck, best drop that ball.
Stuck with indecision?
O plight of prisoner.
Seeress, here is worst vision!
Reality, blur!
Chained atop the atoll wild?
Mother, stillborn child.
Young lovers unreconciled.
Slaughterhouses tiled.
Mild, art thou, O fickle Fate?
Helpful is

In the deep mystery of the night, when the nocturnal light becomes a taciturn witness
In the deep mystery of the night, when the nocturnal light becomes a taciturn witness,
I feel that our nature pushes us to swing between extremes,
The stronger the inner fire, the greater the leap.
Perhaps it is so human to do this, as we are created to move and change.
Because, as far as I know, stagnation means

Past Passions
past passions passed parting
present pains pleasured prolonging
love's longings lowered lingering
world's weight winded waiting
sadness's solo silenced singing
freedom forgotten feared freezing
brittle bones bruised breaking
taciturn tears tattered tumbling
mind's memory mangled melting
reason's remnants ruined remaining
kneels nobody nighted knowing
gutless ghosting gathered grimacing
careless cacophony caged constructing
mammon millions murdered meandering
demons divinity damaged dividing
hearts heads hooked hungering
chastised children chunked chasing
betrayed

Being Taciturn
Being Taciturn
(TASS-uh-tern)

She’s often outwardly taciturn in a group setting,
Opting to be inconspicuous, “Like a fly on the wall.”
Being attentive to others while mentally vetting,
Often, her shorthand is chosen method of scrawl.

Taciturn
She was beautiful
Everyone said so
In her reflection
A luminous glow
Long strands of ebony, her hair
Raven eyes with a gentle stare
Many secrets yet to unfold
Her world, fading fast
But with death grip she grabs
Like holding shards of broken glass
With unprotected hands...
Heart broken...
Eyes empty and cold
Is all they choose to see, but
Underneath that facade
Hides

I Am the Writer of Taciturn Night
Tonight I allow you to visit my mind
Please remain seated, sit back while you find
The beauty of mystery as Da Vinci would code
I welcome you all to my humble abode.
I am the writer of taciturn night
Taking a step into the light
A poet of truth and fantastical vibes
The spirit of mystic and magic
