Transitory Tiara
A crown, not always metal, not always bright, sometimes, a halo of sweat-soaked hair, earned beneath a scorching sun, a laborer's quiet triumph. Sometimes, the delicate curve of a newborn's skull, a fragile promise, a universe unfolding, a reign just begun. A crown, the silver dusting of wisdom, etched in lines, a cartographer of lived experience, a silent testament to battles won and lost. The artist's...

Premium Member Humility
Humbleness (Free Verse) Humble is a man who prefers To take fresh air in his garden Than waste his time in a pub, To be dressed in simple clothing Than in expensive high class dresses That bursts a whole in his purse. Humble is a man who wants to live In a small modest home In the shade of green trees On the fringe...

A Vain Show, and Transitory
All of its nonsense does end here. World's. Its furthest blown point. Murky but deathly stilled water's Of tranquil acceptance. Even so, which glory, gold leafed By what hangs and spooks round Spreads, for ghosts of disillusionment Cursed sounds. In abundance!...

Impermanence
No seed that’s on the earth ground It’s tree now, offering the shadow And life of sound No green leaves there are It’s yellow to withered And blow away far My forefathers, many of them Now hanging on the photo frame One day I’ll be the same Dawn sun comes and goes daily Dusk to a dark night in the same way time never...

"What is this strange place we find ourselves in Trapped in the open, we find ourselves within" Who can hear the forest still Its light and mist fall calmly hushed Bereft of leaves gripped in winter's will Its naked soul lies burnt from autumns rust Sundering haze as breath in cold Melts in air through sunlit stands Of forest simple, soft though bold While...

Transitory
The inurbane world faces its fate with malignant joy, unaware of it being a scapegoat in the capricious transitory thing called life. Yet we perspicuously flatter ourselves and gravitate to the greatness of life till the body dissipates and soul alienates on the all- encompassing altar of death. 9/9/2016...

A Transitory Existence, An Eternal Quintessence
My tenant body constitutes a lease, A rented fabric owed to landlord Time, From smoothened silk to wrinkled leather’s crease, This shuttled thread is bound in deed to grime. My mind he stakes a vested interest in, Its vibrancy is forced perforce to fade, The stain of Lethe’s dull oblivion Shall wash and sink this mind in murky shades. Immortal dyes Arachne...

Transitory Buoyancy
Let us float in these moments... Like clouds in the sky ; Without worries or predicaments... Without tears in the eye...! Let us not think of tomorrow... Nor brood on the bygone yesterday... Transcending the shadows of sorrow... Let us welcome the glee that comes our way....! Let us pluck stars from the firmament.... And festoon the garden of our dreams... Let us find the...

The Transitory
The Transitory A feline has Moved into the shed Gave birth Two six kittens I’m looking for a hammer To hit a nail Into the wall and hang Up a painting of Jesus with His eyes closed Looking remarkable like Gaddafi when he was murdered The painting is a fake Kaddafi was not I shall miss his splendid Sky-blue...

Transitory Madness
just under the skin the you that echoes the actual physical scarring that shows just at the very outset of your supposedly sane & publicly presentable exterior, lies with you a problem that you can't quite fix---and yes, you try to work it out with others, both those others selves within & those individuals on the slashed & scattered outskirts (like cracked little pieces of linoleum) but nothing seems to work when everyone has the blatant sinister audacity to ask if something's wrong but to offer nothing in the way of ideas as to how one might go about medicating any real issues of which you yourself may in...

Clouds Are Transitory
Clouds Are Transitory by Rick Rucker At times, to keep the blues away, I remember that the sky's not gray, It is blue, and bright, and clean, A truly idyllic scene, It is, like we say, “Nothing but blue skies from now on.” Once the intervening clouds are gone, The sky is blue, and will always be, For him and her, and you and...
