The Raven, Sequel - Part 1

Part 1 - A raven alone, ravaging around in the darkness..... 

i.

Ultimately aware, suspense is such, though truly I am sensing,

something dark diverting mind withdrawn, the silence muttered,

since melancholy holds suspicion where to probe now prodding

conscience, bearing likelihood to regain an imaginative murmur,

simulating facts begin, traumatic err significant more murmur

whose sigh, did reach it firmer.


ii.

Will it disclose all wanton fact, since who's to believe the inevitable 

would be playing dead, instead, being near would insist to portray

Me of course, despairing how distraught you are, shows nodding,

includes who's prodding who, if it were I then, Corvus muttered?

ancients merely Thracian, lying there for ages, as nothing muttered,

it may have course, had uttered!


iii.

Sought to thinking, I aught may sustain lifting, instead of panic,

did misread your fright,  I leant towards you, not to squander, 

though considered not to wander since crows retain to gaping 

at the perils associated with delving icy stares who had uttered

nothing to portray, looked around, to gaze myself, who uttered

a murder of them, had cluttered.


iv.

Sanctuary my friend, yourself mobility, it shows you are without ,

"Crows", said he, Or if you know, it's a naturally smooth wait,

FATE, it would leer at you to suggest where you are, it's no less

than what dislodges you, stagnate, agnate besides has loitered,

rain or wind, to deride the raven's welcome, had noise loitered, --

to observe you, rightly tortured?


v.

You stare transfixt, standing back to back, before what yearning,

seems, to what must now linger on, with several steps to adjust;

turn around, first entrust that having woken, my other half, finds

respect is due, your name is half a token share to stow beware,

a stern beguile, if still enclosed then trauma of what is to beware! --

if fortunate to please, if to prepare.


vi.

If unaware to yearning has no knowledge of being so battered,

it appears you've picked up upon yourself indulgence seeking,

"Solely," share with no-one, should it assist your whereabouts?

Trust would insist you upright your stance on thinking, feathered -

perhaps you are featured in as much hardened, being feathered;--

it shows a somewhat eerie weathered!" --


vii.

Cling on proclaiming what is utterly wrong with someone blaming

the raven, who had leapt out at you, has upon settling, is without

forgetting those who've browsed their suspicions, a matter of fact

would need to  impact upon their part in seething what is tethered,

accusing black denouement as to whether both have been tethered,

freedom to ask if life's too revered!


viii.

Allegedly accepting fate, believing what did stature know of,

what of late did knowing death  request I do, if to understand

how underhand would gaze and grip on who is smitten here,

to  meet so nice a foe, indemnity between living and loving,

forgiveness aids perception, to whom it learns from loving

whilst grey leads black with gentle shoving.


ix.

I'd half managed the unsightly gain of saying sir, "how politely",

you have lifted your sighs beyond a means to defeat your allies,

mine perhaps relying  on that  raven, saving my life from being

dull or drab, you will find this, you are being proud and upright

about life or death, remain to be breathing, and it seems upright, 

share a craven's nightmare to mean uptight.

Love In War and Peace

Nothing can ill afford to call this tryst -
A war, since I am sworn to love, I swear
The worth of our’ allegiance has enticed,
The bravest man, a women can compare.
 
In silence whilst the thought I still avow,
The past of an adornment would it sate
Unknown is love to others, but for now -
For one and all, to separate whose wait?

And war for what an age is, death I fear,
Cannot allow the last remaining thing.
To roam within the shape of love sincere;
It means I do believe our hopes will bring.

The strength of love is assured as always,
To conquer love at war our peace conveys.

Sicuti Est Naturae

English Translation

BOOK 1


Proem
Nature, as one to another it seems bad omens,
envois, at entering at this stage of preliminary
dictates our way of thinking, worship saddens;
He, who follows many years, having mastered
what can only be dedicated once only, he too,                              5
Lucretius sculptures and engraves upon given
to exonerate the few, prevents who'd challenge,
that I, for living too his death shall be rectified.
More can be disguised of this natural habitat; 
arbitrary affections him this beginning life you                          10 
carrying on his works by the modern means 
following, and follow him like a glide-bearing
hero of the past, whose realm would imagine
selflessness would caress upon many  pages
upon the sense of denial to repent against the,                             15
means of depicting heroes do, when go fetch 
It would throughout time and space, fetch far.
 
Forage is to study, my works of unforeseeable
futures, are his so clearly seen to be absorbed
Intention is by virtue to find truth good reason.                          20
I would amble on covalent, being discretionary  
by the term matter, to abstain willingly enough, 
madness which follows from many years work.
Thereby, depicting madness, the living memory
Of one, who so focused on himself, for them,                            25
appraisals which help him get over what some,
common folk call insane, there is nothing bad
sad about getting away from all of this world.

If I am to be looked at in the same vane aspect,
Non existing would have travelled all his books                        30
He’d have noticed nothing, disclaim having read 
Giving praise alone that unknown lies imminent
Whose stature is the living memory of a mentor.

Ode To Melancholy

Tho' woe begone I am found too deep,
         my silent suffering has a credulous will
         unwilling acceptance, it strives to keep
         persistence edging towards that landfill.

         Resentment of those the pain it carries,
         such viciousness to move a past master
         to exude fall and pain my twain it varies,
         in all matters, relating to each disaster.

         The difference is unhurried melancholy,
         it has blatantly given us smaller mercies
         which often force us into choosing folly
         to instigate the mind our outrage curses.

          It leaves one as this indigenous species,
          insurgence swore astutely, with a blithe
         disgruntled sorrow as the will decreases,
          bearing down, too wrought to be alive.

          Yet grief defines how hoary overawed,
          upon this discovery without it resolute
            not far from keeping, my having stalled 
           much sleeping in this state of ill-repute.
