A Place Not Meant To Be
A Place Not Meant To Be (1487 words)
#1: A Day Begins
Sand grains station elevated for want
in the cool starless relics spell of dark
a sun behold horizon that dews haunt
favoring a virgin's touch settled spark
illuminate sprawl hope echoes a night
prejudge ripens new to the golden day
freedom speculate oddly slept by light
as shadiness telltale spots dead astray
undulating surge flowing wetness stir
uneasy granules settle in hair strands
surf push nonsensical ashore transfer
waterline mind a sun aloof shift sands
a shoreline of lying seashells mumble
amidst the noisy sand castles crumble
#2: A Day Ends
Amidst the noisy sand castles crumble,
afeared shook ceases, a slamming silence,
tis a rippling pond cross o'er to humble,
tranquility transfers, hours for nonsense,
these shooting stars like asteroids deflect
your day lived is nevermore, stay awhile,
happiness claims a heart's duty ... connect,
righteousness pause, funny things cause a smile,
snags voided, problems solved, caveat crossed,
in the least misfortune, up in the air,
if there is no closure, there'll be a cost,
to exhaust all that is human ... prayer.
Period of cleansing and making whole,
goal hour is here ... the spirit joins the soul.
#3: Tis Twilight Time
Goal hour is here ... the spirit joins the soul,
ephemeral or twilight ... or two worlds,
dreams; exchange facts for fiction ... a black hole,
furtherance, lying on a bed of pearls.
The Ancient Mariner, sailed all seven,
--but know that all of creation matters,
Jules Verne starts your voyage, you'll break even,
the journey will seem endless ... but crackers!
The choices lay at your feet, just explore,
"Around...," "Center...," "Under...," "Mysterious...,"
most productive voyager--go ashore.
This would be the trice of time, serious,
for the twinkling has arrived, tis Twilight,
Time, inspired, now expired, on-site, sit tight.
#4: Time Always Minute
Time, inspired, now expired, on-site, sit tight.
all that stands subject to change constantly,
from one crossroads to milestone, overwrite,
the turning point, grains of sand, presently,
exchanging circumstances pertinent,
time-space continuum, situations,
time-slot columns, sectional, alignment,
segments prepare a course of durations,
stages invent themselves accordingly,
time and again they reinvent the wholes,
tis uncompromising strengths ... primary,
repeat performance, seconds intervals,
full showcase entertains a split instant,
shifting affects all their pulled souls; constant.
#5: The Morning After
Shifting affects all their pulled souls; constant,
seized stares engage dawning crystals; bred views.
Child-like cherubs guide giggling stars; enchant,
Pegasus prepped and harnessed; controlled crews,
sprawled winged bats whorl descends barricaded,
midnight submerged shades Admiral cool blues.
Swamp aroused, croaks, leaps, buzzes, and waded,
Luna merged descension, picturesque views,
a deserved tired town, abandoned lagoon,
cows standing in their beds as the grass grows,
a milkman's leaving whistles a suite tune,
farm life kickers, kitchens light flicker glows.
Cherubs hook up the small wagon and hold,
as Sol draws the reigns; Chariot of Gold.
#6: The Day After
As Sol draws the reigns; Chariot of Gold,
and pulls e'er so oft, glitter and specks rise,
it's not yet midday, guess we compromise?
Too late for rise or set, but we're betold,
if there's an issue, Sol will hold midday,
when resolved, Sol will fly the sky till set,
though Sol sees no wrong, let's go on, --contact,
Near up's a day, Cherubs weaker from play,
it's time to go, we'll be back tomorrow,
hopeful, dutiful Cherubs are tireless,
smiling stanch workers, and industrious,
and always giving out joys, ne'er borrow,
remember, make it unforgettable,
they're pretty special and memorable.
#7: The Pressure of Time
They're pretty special and memorable.
Still, a need to know, it comes, it goes
It comes, it goes, they are unstoppable.
It goes and it comes, and nobody knows,
It likewise can run, it likewise can fly,
otherwise, it comes, otherwise it goes.
but it will never, ever, never -- die.
It will just run, and, fly, come and it goes.
Made is shredded, and create is destroyed.
Every thrashing, crashing, smashing, squashing.
The segments are strict and go to the void.
The task is radical for reforming.
Seconds are sucked into the nevermore,
Renewed, a second, their forevermore
#8: Time's Up
Renewed, a second, their forevermore,
a bobbing pin rethreads all in red threads,
the pedals are pressed up and down the floor,
the bobbing pin threads in and out all reds.
The Kids and Mom in Kress's Department Store,
Dad is somewhere eating candied popcorn,
Kids are reading comics at the bookstore,
Mom looking at patterned clothes to adorn,
The store is not in business, now a school,
Pattern clothes take time, best buy off the shelf,
The bookstore is closed and comics a-tool,
Sewing at home is passe like Santa's elf,
Be a dog--cause cats only have nine lives,
Do the numbers--dogs don't count--just survives!
#9: Days of Paper Roses
Do the numbers--dogs don't count--just survives!
Then everything, be as close enough, still,
of this and that, thoughts begin and end, thrives,
truth betold, none were measured boundless will.
There's a bold statement, typed on front pages,
rolled off the presses, just to impress us,
splashed inklings midst papered, of such phrases,
... rolled and impressed, settles the dust--minus.
High-topped towers, the light of day, shadows,
thought-filled days, wages paid by subscribers,
of The Times, Gazettes, or Tribune Heralds,
flighters, fighters, there too were paid--writers.
Dawn paper rolls, notepads, pens ... night closes,
they blossomed they did like rows of roses.
#10: No Room At The Inn
They blossomed they did like rows of roses.
Places for lodgers, those traveling sourced,
their reasons countered their changing poses,
frequent stays and returns have been endorsed.
There will be places that might be lacking
for whatever reasons that there may be,
the people won't stay there, less foot tracking,
as sites may have Roach Motels that you'll see.
There will be double-booking caused concerns,
leaving people stranded, no way, no stay,
whereby many shorten trips--forced returns.
Trends rallied lawsuits; be that as it may,
X-X Bethlehem, then Jerusalem, He'll lay.
#11: Space Race Revised
X-X Bethlehem, then Jerusalem, He'll lay,
slides from angel wings through hourglass timeless
inquiry, that constant without delay
spatial values in place of life ... priceless?
Space is priceless and we welcome it here,
--present company excluded, that is.
Cultural war displaces; others--where?
Mayans, Angkor Wat, Easter's Rapa Nui's.
We measure our worth for what we can take,
the price for this act is life, yours or theirs.
'Take' leave of the seats as cruise control, make
it with the jingle turn to wrinkle--cheers!
Space worth is the price for commodities,
let's naught add to Space's new oddities.
#12: Space Ghost-ed
Let's naught add to Space's new oddities,
we've space between our ears, with a spare room.
Silos hushed ... Grace spots our credulities,
our space mid-ear's blessed--a brain stained attune.
Post-Life; same space; new point--afeared darkness,
when question, "mark," life's course--you must enter
price if not taken; parts fatal, parts guess,
choose--right proves true, and--wrong haunts lamenter.
Existence; same brain space--darkness remains,
(dark alley, blind spot, or scary neighbor)
sensed points in life--in your space, your caused stains,
trifle (take) space. As written, (take) detour,
and highly fill the space between your ears,
to the accords of The Book of Life ... cheers.
#13: Close One, & Cigars
To the accords of The Book of Life ... cheers,
loose ends of the created stoic string
crisscross a heedless sea of empty tears.
In the facade of guilt, all seems trifling.
Metallica Horizons all are round,
languages changing from their Mother Tongues,
World Clock, reassemble to Zero down.
New tastes, new sounds ... The Song of Flower Drums
from Southerners, not quite, the cowboy type.
Bowls bleed of beets, ... have fun chow from Macao.
Americans, ... where? ... flagless world, all hype ...
Russians, Chinese, there ... steak, Mindanao.
Ex-lives work as one, building their Starships,
human chain meant Starman ... breathing room trips.
#14: Revelations 23:1
Human chain meant Starman ... breathing room trips,H**** sapiens chose ... plus naught minus,
the apocalypse ... opts total eclipse,
self-acquaintance, he splits us, Linnaeus,
Con temporaries times, countdown it chills,
Adolph & Stalin it ticks and it tocks,
Pre temporaries times, pour down it spills,
Alexander, Khan drip sands as it stocks,
Once down on the time, leaves heaped reds and golds,
down on one-timers, the large waterholes.
Cause and effects--pause and reflect; Reserved,
Blessed manifest--Grace takes His Place; The Word.
#15: To Err Divine ...
Blessed manifest--Grace takes His Place; The Word,
Presenced peace of mind brightened every hour,
Magnanimous passage namesakes ushered,
Looking-at-last ... utopian tower,
Countenance primed, ubiquitous effects,
Nirvana captured spatial 'brilliance,
The Ancients primordial architects,
Solar Lunar ... Terra Firma eclipse
Utopia ~ Nirvana-----------Genesis,
The Supreme recreates the beginning,
Wherefore, mirrors joy and fears, seize and frees,
Knowledge of good and evil ... tree growing,
Vacuous chamber amuse drifting haunt,
Sand grains station elevated for want.
