at the base of our brain lies a stem ~ ladybugs stray causing mayhem
doubt sways in the ether ~ when lovers sleep and relationships teeter
Could it be that I exist in a dream
affected by perpetual changes,
a dream of someone who is invisible and unimaginable?
And perhaps I’m not superfluous man there, in this dream,
unlike my perceptions of myself,
to which I succumb more and more often.
But even if it's so, what difference it makes
to my reality, what solace and support
does someone else's dream provide to me?
In that case, it's more than likely
that all my misfortunes occur outside of me,
in the sleeping consciousness of that creature
about whom I know nothing...
But then my assumptions about myself being dreamt
are ridiculous and meaningless..
Or maybe there is an indirect meaning;
perhaps I wanted to be a shoebox, or a rose in a garden
but simply didn't dare to disrupt
the harmony of the gardens or the practicality of the box..
Your beauty is inevitable and ever so incredible.
I could sample you like an edible, oh so very rare and eligible to take me to places unintelligible.
Let's ride the magic carpet till we become invincible with the love so very irritable, cause neither one of us will fold since it would be so cold all alone.
Unimaginable!
Unbearable is the pain when we lose someone we very much cherish
But unimaginable, the pain becomes when we see a youth perish!

*At least 57 people were killed when a passenger train carrying more than 350 people of whom the vast majority were students, collided with a freight train on Tuesday, shortly before midnight, in Tempi, near the city of Larissa, leaving strewn carriages and heaps of debris in its wake. There are more than 80 people injured. The number of victims is going to rise, officials say. I dedicate this small poem to the memory of the people who have lost their lives due to a tragic human error!
azure ethereal canvas,
iridescent kaleidoscopic night,
feel divine power
grace, joy, yearning, love
tranquil heavenly unimaginable beauty
serenades xenial zen
ooze wonderful quiet vibe
radiant, magnificent!

The nation is controlled by Corrupt individuals,
the inability to control it drives us insane.
We sit alone brooding the old--grasping the new,
Eager to make it's value more than what it's worth.
We try to commemorate our past,
by Rebuilding our capacities for wonder.
Like lost birds in an abandoned nest,
we lack to see beauty-- and our capacities for wonder become unknown.
Beauty lies among us,
while our Imagination ponders within.
As Free as the Wind,
but as Limited as our Diversity.
The imagination capable of Creating the present, the old-- and the unspoken of--
Yet our nation is controlled by corrupt human beings,
with the Inability for Justice.
So we beat on--
Boats against the Current,
like our Minds against Mankind.

'As the sun rose,
Harry woke,
thinking
of
his dream -
one of owls,
lockets,
cloaks,
wands and
scars...'

Shy so blue
What do you hide?
Friends or fiends
Or unimaginable things?
Or absolutely , nothing
But the blank depths
Of everything.
crashing anger
crushing worries
growing
gaining more life
increasing in weight
and pressure
making it harder for me to breathe
anger
rolling through my blood
the heat erupting through every pore
every cell in my body wanting to scream
my eyes tear
my head explodes with hatred
my heart working double time
just to keep myself together
why do you do this to me?
this anger is killing me
cant keep myself together
breaking
diaster beyond imagination
new creations
causing new threats
to my sanity
breaking
i blast music
and write
letting the words of others
and myself
be the medicine
but still ill be
breaking
I think its unimaginable
A place on high
A place with no death
A place with no pain
A place without heartache
A place without headache
I think its unimaginable
Can you imagine?
Imagine the place out of this world
Where the spirit of God dwells forever
Where the angels sing of his Glory
Where the angels sing of his Mercy
Where there's day and no night
Where the light has an undespairing glare
I think its unimaginable
Can you imagine?
Imagine the land of complete victory
The land that's roads are paved with Gold
The land that's Mansions are separate for everyone
The land that's Love never deceived
The land of Greater and Greater Heart
The land that's made with Gates of 12 at each end
I think its unimaginable
Can you imagine?
Imagine me dwelling there with God
Where I'm of complete victory
Where the Psalms are never ending
Where I'm singing the Psalms that are never ending
Where you may dwell with God forever
Where we all spend forever as eternity ahead
Where imagination is reality
Where reality is of imagination
I think its unimaginable
Can you imagine?
Can you imagine?
