warning sign

to the lover of my soul

so this is regret
for Im let alone with just a few thoughts
thinking I realize
you're greater than a sunrise
but I can't stand right now to look in your eyes
your voice sweeter than hummingbirds in love
so far scathed I shut my ears
measuring my pinebox and the plot where I should lie
you touch my hand
assuring regrets requim mass
writing the two hundred page mastery
undesereved you take me in
doing whatever it takes
you let me in
taking away our last kiss
I live again

Soul Gazer


I've invented it
the amazing two ton soul gazer
it peers peeks plucks and picks
with this device I'll know your wits

it's ten feet tall and eight feet wide
fitting into a two inch door
weighing the price of a feather
the amazing dreamably intricate soul gazing thing

necessity authored it's invention
now with impatience I will get in

to know your eyes
and be your skin
was the reason to create
this grandiose small intrepid thing

All im given



all I've been given is this moment
the silence after my confessions
and in this
I'm the saint
the hero
the plunder
the plundered
the loss coupled with a new vision
a father
who's son's birth led him to pray


I'm sung
attempted
attrophied
not fleeting
but here on a forever stay

this moment is everything
my entire life's innermost desire
today



Author's Note: Don't EVER Give Up.

Philippians 1:6 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)

6being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

the fiction love wrote

this is the last poem I write to a girl made of confetti
the last time I give my heart to one more line
no more anguish over something I've yet learnt
mathematically speaking
all obsessions adding up to a glassy silhouette

a final goodbye to a boyish bravado
my bow to a gentleman's wish
my latter being a cold harder reality
that these thoughts and dancing lines of flighty poetry
have wasted time better spent

Being Confident

hope never dies
but failure tries
and tries
and tries
ready to pounce on my victory lap
slipping mickey's underneath a bannana peel

convincing the judge to falsify a race
coveting my award and falsifying my results

no hope never dies
but failure will always try

so I run a fool's race
towards something I'm unlikely to win

no hope can't die
so try try
and I say it again
try

love poem i'd wish to write


yes i was walking
but after my eye met you i was pausing
my every brain function in suspense
my heart continuing
having a mind of its own
and this
this is my clumsy love poem
once again life pausing
to mindlessly consider
what if we were together
and ive done more to have met a stranger


Author's Note: this poem is about a girl I saw in my store. yea... didnt talk to her. but we kind of stared at each other. Instances like these make me wonder if there is love at first sight.

love mud


you see that's what I wish
one by one and a cell by a cell
me knowing every part of your brain
browsing the books of your mind to pass the time
then we fall
in love
the bottom of our shoes covered in it
sticky and muddy but unmistakable
yea
a wish and more than a wisp
souls still do fall in love

knock run tree stood


so the man approached the tree
filled with anger
air filled his lungs
and with intent he cried
why should I believe
why should I care and recieve
that a lifeless thing such as you can know
pain or hurt or have any type of process that makes you alive
a lifeless thing with no need or purpose inside
for we plant you we care for you
and without us you would die
you dependent thing
you horrid useless penny
you don't serve well
but still
some find interest with the small but petty
to them the few and odd I say
double your resolve
or be a broken man
lost
wieghtened
bit on the back
and neslted on a broken levy

the tree did sigh
a frown enveloped him
like a reverse sunrise
a punchline not gotten
or a lilac with no seed
the tree just stood there
not confusing his hurt for anger
wondering why thought
hoped him
not to be

hands cover eyes


i couldnt see
blinded by my pride
hands covering my own eyes
im an idol maker
my profesion
my demise

you see me
and wonder why
how silly a thing you say
why would such a small thing
want to cover so many lies

God Save Me

The poem some don't want me to write


indeed this is the truth that's hid
because some don't know what it is
truth
a long way down showing no mercy
to finder or sender
the truth is that rocky road
and that sweet rose

its serendipity and serenity
dopamine and the rapture of romance
its a ten ton wall falling and democracy spreading
its not what it means to you
its what it means to itself

its one realizing if embraced
it could be like taking a 90,000 foot leap
from a hang glider
with no parachute or thought of a prayer

but alas my friends
its also knowing that from that same leap
is salvation
truth in hand

understatement of understanding

and as we entered that elevator
going to our destinations
pressing the button to end the elevators querry
and deeply pondering into her eyes I made her wonder
so she asked
and I obliged
I said if you look deeply enough into a persons eyes
you can see what they saw
be who they were
and think as they see
but most importantly be who they be

intrigued by my line of thought she let me look
and so I began my own querry
I heard thought fought felt and did be
until it made me faint
spent
lessened
and free

then off she went
reaching her floor
glad to have met me
changed now knowing that I
see what she saw
that I was as she were
all the while thinking as she sees
knowing its important
to be as she herself sees fit to be


Authors Note: in India there is a saying: there is no point in chopping a persons nose off then giving them a rose to smell. It doesnt matter what truth you hold if you are alienating those whom you wish to reach. Always remember civility and be kind.

In Her Mouth Truth He Spoke

today I cried with a knife to my thigh
so I limped a lumpy mile
startled with my resolve I continued
to a friend who once knew my love
come with me
they whenced
with full on fragmented sentences
they strung together a song
a thousand chords hugging a million octaves

my life was changed

this was once a story once I thought she thought I knew
but piece by piece my life was changed

from her to me then her to him it shot to the moon
and this is where my rhythm changed

she struck a chord that insisted I cling to her heart
smiling truth occupied many vacant spaces within me
for you I fight
for him I stand
truth the communication
understood wanted loved and trusted
now my life becomes one
with the greater sender
urgency
life
happyness
now its we it commands


Authors note: God uses people to speak his truth. Dont forsake compassion.. even if youve given up on your ability to feel. God WILL bring you hope if you continually trust him.

Elegia (full version)

to be then not to be


I dont care
how this should start off
it has to
and so with each line
I'll remind us all of something
by exploring in something

I want to be
I want to go and see
I want in

don't tell me I am because I'm not there
in a state of want
how can am be in this as well
why concludes then I decide
but there is nowhere to be found
search is whom I ride
confusion is with whom I sometimes sip tea
all along assured I have certainty
restless is a night
where my definitions collide
worship is married to my pursuit
but divorced is what I see

then right back here beside confusion
is where I be
determined my friend
its you that I meet again
recommited is the man I'll be
duality or reality
which is the challenge to believe
forsaken is a lie I'll never give listen
because for me
I hate the evil that dwells in me

noble wift*
at the time of my arrival
I had arms shorter than my intentions
legs shorter than my stature
respect not valued in the marketplace
and hair shorter than my flowing spirit
so I went
to a land that valued my intent
to men who would marvel at my stature
tell me great things
while giving my weary backpack a soft seat cushion
giving visitors the impression they had comfort to spare

far my stout legs did carry
never once an inch of growth did I see
this journey did lie to me
providence I did not see

this journey left me disillusioned
scribbled defeat on parchment
was defeat when read by me

I carried on
this knowledge now changing the journey
an embittered man
no legs hair or arms with which to carry me

***

but my song is a ballad of many
an army of chanting rings
the logic of perfect harmonium
the lull of a million swings
for I entered in this world a contender
an underdog meant not to win
for my state decimates confusion
my pasture
the wind

its for your freedom said my own heart strings
your voice I wish to hear sing
for my life is your own tarry weight
the single passion of me letting your pain in


Authors note: the first part is the despair of one person. the second part is a person who knows that hell is necessary to understand how much God loves us. knowing God swallowed an eternity of suffering for us is hope enough for every man.




(this is a deleted addendum to the poem. I deleted it because I felt the current ending expressed what love truly is adequately. Which is to say love is bearing the burden of another. In a word Sacrifice.)

and this err is no folly stake
impatience is a jester less a win
my soul is still for your liberation
to embrace loves perfect tyranny
is win






*wift- wift is not a word. but since I made it up I will give it a meaning.
wift- an indescible love realized by taking on eternal pain; unimaginable sacrifice or sacrifice to the limit of belief.

tunturia

still like tundra in a foriegn land
im waking


few hours till light
and all this will soon
be a distant farse and dream
Ill hold on to a slither
my hope won't wither
your light melts a frozen stoic dream


Authors note: one of the most intense thing you can feel... is God holding onto you.
The only thing more intense than that is having the revelation that he wont EVER let you go. He want to take you to your true hearts desire in him.

side note - Tundra comes from the Finnish word "tunturia", which means a barren land. The ground is permanently frozen 10 inches to 3 feet (25 to 100 cm) down so that trees can't grow there. The bare and sometimes rocky ground can only support low growing plants like mosses, heaths, and lichen. In the winter it is cold and dark and in the summer, when the snow and the top layer of permafrost melt, it is very soggy and the tundra is covered with marshes, lakes, bogs and streams that breed thousands of insects and attract many migrating birds.

waking memory

im up
the smell of the thought of you
restled me now im stuck
who wants to sleep
because if I fall asleep I'd lose the dream
my waking days wander
hoping my lurking thoughts dont betray

I want what I can't have
desiring a standing dream with both eyelids open
why dream
for a shore distant
a cliff too high
or a notion to long a journey to stray
when you're a waking memory
a thinking twinkle
not mine
or I
your arms intent betray

im in ireland wondering when this horror will end
foggy clouds letting me see

seeing a peckle of clear sky

bird fly blue wings getting height

escaping your aches and loving each err

It's pauper

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."

my rank goes from general to chef
loftiness leaves me
the question becomes lament
requiem for ideology
pedistool made queen

I serve you my giveups leftovers and scraps
pushing them aside
smiling
you laugh
joy in your eyes I can now sing
was this ever meant
for me to serve an unservable king

my crown
given so that I can see
and my cloak a preposterous thing
for my dream
in my eyes
I thought myself ruler
formerly not perceiving the throne's heart
but this time
I give in

Pirate Jim No Mass

this is a tale that made a pirate soggy
so about your tears fore' the crew eats you like bait
a tale o' hurt
the cause a bonnie lass flirt
filthy but tender are at the heart
of this this tales innermost content

ol' cap'n jim he was once a ships monkey
no crimp or doubloon could lead this man astray
fore jim would one day be a pirate
with gold tooth he'd never deny it
a black sail of his own would he posses one day

so jim did grow
burly beard full of spat
with a cutthroat crew they sailed the seas and let fly thier frigate
leaving no free to remember
thier jolly roger
never again to see light they'd say "ballast be o'er day"

then one day a cable jettisened ol cap'n jim
a fluke set his piratical acts
her name was o'clare and wih a wisp captured that seadogs lip n' fancy
they met but she alone conquered
hip with switch she doctored
leading like a simple galley

and it was alone he now ventured
fore she made haste with a two fold booty
cap'n jim mutineered
taken by a wenches eyes
no ship
cup o' coins
or bonnie lass to lessen a broken hearts levy

if love were clap in irons this would be jim's fate
for after she was done it was love's prison he'd marry

one day she was less than a whisper
cap'n jim's heart a reef in a lone vesper
drifting
with no ship
jack o' staves
nor man of war for a buccaneer to prey

Author's note: YARRR!!
(in honor of today which is talk like a pirate day www.talklikeapirate.com)

king's loving ransom

what is this bestowed to me
nails and bones and victory
a stain and frown removed from thee
the wieght of night is what unsettled me
a plight appeared and removed my frown
no greater love than this was found
a hope within is what I see
for one gave all to be with me
no greater love can a being caress
through pain and darkness my knight fought my death
retreating my giant and serving my time
recluse was the bitter clocks chime
what is this when he founded me
a rugged cross with love's tears it pinned thee

Authors note: John 3:16-18

16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[f] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.[g]

collective memory of a thoughtless romantic


these are the collective of my fantasy
inspired
comments
but poetry in motion nonetheless
that is if you want them to be
because today it was a thought to me
today it was a whirly thought to me
that one day true love came to be
and in that twenty four we fell in love
and in those hours pigeons became doves
could this be a silly love song
am I just a dreamer who's let his thoughts gone wrong
Ill be a fool and a desperate romantic
lest my eyes open and the thought
of women practicing needless sex in the city
makes me frantic
an eratic line now outside
but formerly in our attics

ever since I was a boy
I wanted an other
to hold
gently kiss
and say I love her
with her I'd set
and in the morn she would rise
bitter cold never seperating
something to pure to demise


Authors note: some lines need to be drawn. Romance should always stay alive. :)

me without you

for you I wait my hearts desire
clammering emotions
no disease but moments often make me a liar
I'm a mirror
a hope
a romanticly involved fool
waiting for you
a shade of grey
a feeling
a flutter
a moment I've yet to touch
a cheeck I've yet to kiss
a hand I've yet to hold
a moment I've yet to miss
an eye I've yet to gaze
an ear I might never own
a doubt I always see
the thought that Ill live in service
holding out
walking past you
without me

bright day learned

this thought arrived by courier one day
it read
this just came to me
that perhaps the reason
for rain pain
strain
division
tribulation which is troubles
tension masquerading as victory
and distance leading to disarray
is so we realize
that the sun shines
despite it all
in our hearts
living waters never failing
feeding in all frenzy
proving that dam would never give way

Conversation With Myself




Father become my day

so then he was done
the father told the son
a tale of pain in which the father
could have been undone
but he loved intensely
never to be loved in return
and from these flames
like gold
he did walk away

and with this tale
in the world the son did grow
he grew
and loved
met a girl
they loved she ran
he gave to others
then they'd take away
father no longer here
only an example remained
the son pressed on
always reflecting a life
but for the purpose of this
lets call it a day
the son strained
to reflect that day
when pain resembled perspective
and rain seemed farther away
you see the son realized
which from this some stray
the more he loved
gave and did not take away
the closer to his fathers perfect love
he would stay
and besides
with the love of his father
any son can make it through a day


Authors note: this is not only a poem about Jesus Christ but realizing what love is through him. Love is benefitting others at the expense of self. Love is more than loving those who love you. When you go beyond the safety zone you find out what love is. Loving your enemies and those who tear you in two.

Mother Theresa once said

"I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can
be no more hurt, only more love."


Love is more than we imagined. Its Beautifully perfect.

the words of my mouth

yae though I walk through the valley
of the shadows of death
fear and distortion surroiund me
but I know beyond this world of plurality
and uncertainty
that you are with me
with my rock and a staff
gripped
your arms surrounds me
secured I slip away
focused on an aformentioned goodbye
tall blues after low greys
you're my epitome of sky


Authors note:
Remember one thing. If you serve Jesus Christ NOTHING that happens in this world can take away that hope. NOTHING. what some fail to realize is that reality is all that matters.

Jesus is Lord. no matter what you go thorugh

nudiustertian

nudiustertian
or as I like to call it now distortion
as it were or as it is
so this story can see

yesterday we were all singing along
but now it seems things have changed
today we're dragging our feet
the dearly departed
whispering division
forgetting companionship
this fortified fire becomes solidarity
cementing what should never have been
and before we know it
our asses think they know how to steer
our Godly love becomes a fragmented nudiustertian
a one piece band playing distortion
forgiveness pulling up chairs
all unable to hear think or see

Departure

the purpose of people

took off that morn
overalls and my converse
just another day that I tripped over
so down the dirt road I took off
led to a log so I sat
met a frog
who was a train hopper
he asked me for flies
looked in my pocket and alls was there were dimes
he huffed and went along his way
leaving his scooter behind
hopping forward in a scurry
so I took the scooter
and traveled on my way
faster now I sped
nearly running over an ant
stopped to apologize
glad and bursting with merry
the ant thanked me
but not before he gave me a crumb
I didn't have much use for it but I took it anyway
given to the manners my mother taught me
I decided it was the right thing to do
I hurried along with my scooter
hand full of a crumb
stumbling along the day

finally I come across a purple man
destiny he said is a two headed dragon
mysterious but never giving too much away
wait and you'll find a crumby disposition leads to full days
a dirt road has clear meaning
and a frog with wheels can determine the course of your day

all this combined with a clumsy nature
will frown you into a lavender and purple array

Persephone
my misfortune is that I'm used to watching
waiting with a prayer
my heart at your command
distance the known to all that's fair
like loving brethren
still I'm the one who truly cares
despite your scars on my arms
I'm decided
I care
one giving in to a fools race
my emotional lincoln
not leaving me the name of a getty
walking waiting persevering without pitty
longing for the love I created
persephone
for you I was designed to wait


Authors's Note: God persues us like a lover. Faithful and kindly. Eventhough trample on his love with dirty shoes he forgives us, loves us then makes everything brand new.

faith my stability

taking a break
my indecision broken
by a clumsy fall
my now eyes dilapidated
faith consummated
on this small and quiet block
I learn many lessons
can you hear me now
my stomach growls saying
this one growing
and with this trial
you get more knowing
feeding me any and trials and thing
crossing and eating is a routine thing
betting on growth
until my health is sistine

Authors note: You aren't alone. God is always there waiting for you to fight again; Ready to give you salvation.

and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.

Guttle

pardon me
not subtle I sink
I win I pry
we kiss and hold
hands worn together
for years through fears
I'm walking one day talking
across the street
a friend with a skip
hop and some jaxs
they play along a cloud
a sky with mostly sun
further down the day
a bit past the east side of a block
grandma an elder
I respect
she smiles
wisdom part her lips
so decidedly I sit
she says
days like this aren't arrogant
to sit and play
a clear sky and a sober mind
put in a glass topped with a sunny sky
these are things I remember
then with a loving kiss and embrace
she sent me on my way
to tell all what we experienced this day
hoping a cane will save the day
letting me know kind memories
are fodder in the rough

Lovingly Continuation

this is my discontempt
my equator of disaster
turned around
now hope
avoided a crash
I'm now honor
definite
a warriors sword
I live again
worn out but still
bending my back up
in the least I can feel again
this lives again
I'm alive to live
I'm cut for you
I serve for you
and this moment
I'm restored for you

fear not this is the only transmission of this kind
I whisper to you
with wonderment I think
'will you understand not only hear'
letting words free
releasing vowels from lips
one last grasp from the heart
I let go
you receive my clumsy metaphors
eyes widened
and with one smile
adding to what I once conceived
as divine

Adamite

at times it seems love was a spectral thing
always getting the win
me always letting it in
but other times wine seemed less divine
I've left it in the bollocks
but truth remains
and there I found a lull in a cursed lulliby
captured by hope
erased but still
my legs walk along a withered capulet
a tired moon
wasted pirouette
I dance in the dark
guided then by a useless mind now worn

but at once a light
blind motion given meaning
God's journey not in vein
and this is what it meant
all along
to hope
give
burn
die
arise
only to live again
pain being gain
alive to you
new wings never the same


Authors note: a tale of romance

prayer disconnection


oh what grace this is
that came to be
that you God could love a wretched
a twisted thing such as me
mine eyes are just as wasted
at times my soul seems just as separated
but still
you perfect love me
the heavens twist and flex
bend and reach
fitting my wayward design
filling mine
oh what grace this is that came to me
that God would love a wretched thing
like me

Eight Hours of Sleep



Stand strong and salute

with his army suit on he lay there
outside the door he could hear
lovely whispers of gratitude
wife full of tears sitting beside him
grasping his medal in one hand and hers in the other he slipped away
more then a noted memory he swam away
on a cold day in autumn he slipped away
now he found himself seated at a clean white table
with others like him
with honorificabilitudinity in their hearts
courage and discipline in thier minds

a place kept clean by dutiful men
just like himself
everything perfect and pristine
the very chairs lined with every jewel and ruby imaginable
polished with ferver

with awe he looked at nothing but bright light
all bright light surrounding
it was at that moment
when his observations peaked
all the pain lack of compassion and honorableness
every backward way in the life of former
seemed dim
beacuase now all his suffering was worth it
all was validated
for the sight of a white cloud he now sat on
floating in the sky

Heavy Heart

Heavy Heart
the sky cracked
the scepter descended
the sheep collected
and suddenly he was accepted
looking around he found himself in a white room
with a chair
and a smile
with two arms and some feet
he came in the pleasant white room
with a chair
glowing white
then with eighteen teardrops in his heart
the boy cried
not knowing he or any other life form
could feel this light
and right before the eighteenth tear drop
dropped
he caught it
said "that makes seventeen"
wiping them away
and this one doesn't count
the boy then asked his only question
the only question he'd ask
one single question for all eternity

"were you in the rain"
"I mean are you in the rain"
he just smiled
turned around
walked out the door leaving it open
the boy watching with wonderment
floating away


Authors Note:
Revelation 21:4
4 He will wipe away from them every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more. The first things have passed away."

Fear bot
then at once the world was a light
they flickered then vanished from sight
my dad became my eyes
and a dark sky my only insight
as my mind molded something
I never could quite see
fear was a thing
you could dine with quite easily

but all at once my world blew a fuse
left with nothing
confused
pondering the foundation my feet did walk?
neigh crawled
for this night is a new day
new dawn
new feel
a man looses master
looses a world
recieves new zeal

so reform what I'm
comprised of
make me

shaking in your winds
so responsive
to the water and
your winds

lead me to this moment
tornado flash flood catatonic disaster
a deep space band aide
reflecting a return
filling a void
promising lasting change

I'm sadly glad to say what Ive found
because the truth is on that day
it was the grey sharks that kept us in line
along the blue river
atop a boat
cruising along those raging waves
it was the grey sharks with long teeth
that kept us all in line
along that long blue river
called georgia
it was our fear that kept us all in line
I'm sorry to say but all is true
we came and saught something larger inside
but all we found was a great grey monster
a long river
and a small elongated nothing
etched deep within our own lot


Authors note: the fear of the Lord is the begining of wisdom. Its wise to let go of our own egos and realize that we need God.

my fingers composing numb
touching the strings with no nerve endings
strumming with no will to play

all the while dancing in a grave
praying for a note
remembering a concerto

not being able to feel the light setting

Revelations


up the step
one leg then two
you thought you were alone
and I said if only you knew
one three four steps then another two
up a staircase was the challenge to you
it winded you sweat
you thought you were alone
but I said yet again if only you knew
by your side I cried
waiting
my patience grew
I'm there I said
seeing you pour out a witches brew
then the staircase winded moreso
and moreso you
no longer old but now anew
then it came
the day you saw me
we cried
atop my winded case
we shared minds
pausing
speechless
and in my arms
you finally knew

how does a mute repent

to make the newborn remain
or the old undone

no nudity allowed

everyone looks to be beautiful
in expiring eyes
but when I look directly into you
with you
inside changes
sudden
at once
I'm live active aware and different
my guts a little bit fuzzy
furry on my organs of mire and clay
never imagined I could be lovely
they say there are some things soap can't wash away
so I look far and distant
for someone to kiss this masquerade
only to find a butter fly close with consanants
kissing me knowing me
touching the aformentioned innards
lonelyness cacooned then sent on holiday
joy gives my lip plenty
no more yesteryear
all I've got is today



Authors note - You are beautiful. Whoever you are. You were made in the image of God and loved into existance. dont waste your time finding validation in humans. Why because you were created to worship God. You were made to reflect Hashem. Thats the very meaning of life...

this is how heaven my mind was
mostly
and right now is
like a long calm river
smoothie in my brain
clear
concised
certain and prepared
we're going along sleepful
and rested
currents now civilized
winds pass by
and in this adopted hour
I call you abba father
with this friendship
I say you're my true love
oh how this boat rocks like a happy vessel
stars at night blinding us
morning sun never this clear
new days are with you my friend
whatever comes is no care
now having my love and friend and destiny
smiling and hoping at each pier

Zombie Flick Poem

to you
from me
I write from beyond the grave
my fingernail
polish is rotten
my eyeball makeup still fresh
pluma ready and stirred
so I wirte from beyond the grave
never feeling and always numb
decidedly boney
respectably unfresh
to be undead to be undead
is to be not pretty


Authors Note: alive in Christ
