Terraqueous Poems | Examples


Premium MemberCONSCIOUSNESS

      Realisation sprouting 
      from intangible intuition 
       twined with
       cognitive impulsion 
       igniting consciousness.

       Conflagrating
       confluence of confusion 
       leads to
       path of righteousness 
       breaking contour 
       of pervasive perversion 
       converging 
       to consciousness.

        Ever-curious 
        eccentric 
        ebullient explorer 
        traveling terraqueous
        guided by 
        retrospective and introspective 
        sensuousness ,
        simultaneous
        to reach
        ecstatic consciousness.

      Sailor soul
      on aimless
      valorous voyage
     on reverie 
     meeting 
     seamless sea
     of enlightenment 
     to touch
     summit of consciousness.

Premium MemberPied a Terre

Once within a break in brambly fields
something stirred its fearful head in sleep:
Though it be woman or child, work or vision
something that dares not hold me in derision

But till that lingering day bares your face
with prating breath I bide my bane
And even as I clear the brake, shift the trunks
hosannas crop up before you every dawn.

And someday as I have you in my arms
in osculation's brimming nirvanic bliss,
May I not then turn away empty handed
though warm in your inane atmanic face

Then as I wend my kindly way down the road
pitch my tent on this terraqueous matter-mind
Should I then go looking for my immortality
through doors that are forever locked to me

Or could I then lie upon nescience' impervious skies
upon some smoky grass unmapped or husbanded
And hear the awakening cries of spring born trees
then get up to wind my way to some factory blast
