Lady Femme Fatale

I left, and crept to my room
And slept
I Wept
And Kept you in the haven of my soul like a pet.
Femme fatale
I will tell your tale
Till you sell me your soul.
You are so beautiful
So wicked
So charming.

Fickle you!
I adore your momentarily sweetness
And each and every slap on my numb cheek.

I know, deep down the unseen crevice of your heart,
Your love for me is powerful than Viagra
You are a beautiful nightmare,
So wicked
So charming
That everyone wants to see in their dreams.

Revival of the Muse

Arise! 
touch our souls with the words
Speak to our empty hearts
Spell our names with the tongue of wisdom
Sanctify our minds in the sanctum of sanctity

We summon the spirit of courage
Direct the heart to the purpose
Heal the wounds of laziness
Kick away vanity and dumb pursuits 

Precious flower of the poets
grow and wield your energy in us
Enter the core of our being
Stimulate our dying souls
to reconnect and establish 
an eternal reinforcement. 

We stretch forth our hands towards heavens
to recover the lost pearls
Of wisdom eternal
Of everlasting truth
and so be it.

Crescendo

The roar of the raging seas
The tinkling of sonorous bells
The sweet manipulation of thousand voilins
The running waves of gushing liquids
The buzzing of happy bees,
The thunderous sound from the bare clouds
The voices of the infinite celestials
Bite us O wisdom!
Infest our minds with rich testimonies of words
Conflagrate our imaginative powers
Mystify the sacredness of our poetical voices
Grind our rough lines smooth and perfect
Elevate our positions in the lyrical universe
Control our feeble fingers as we ink through the wilderness of distorted valleys
Let our inner eyes behold quality pictures in the gallery of obscure realms
We magnetize and Immortalize
Our true symbol of poetism.
Amen!
