Bark upon the belaboring day
Mordently, back and forth
A lonely neighbors whim & play

Need another bite to eat, to slay another minstrels May.

Senseless on the bracken, lay
See the passengers astray
Wondering like a movement scored

Teeth chattering another tune, as I sit in morning June.

Miscellany like cheap photographs
Soon they'll realise
In round about ways, all the lies

And rages against tides that can't be beaten, this new July in season.

Sightless above the stars
With reasoned imagination
Darting left and right, with endless fascination

Wind against the olive branch, a snake dangling in August drench.

The Other Self


We find a holiness
In the being of the other
Reared corruptively
Our inner peace is hollow

Indeed, birth spacing
Then early weaning
Then sibling rivalry
Refusing to grow

The other self
The self and other
Imbuing fantasy
Incipient sexuality

Paradox
Places ecstasy
In diffusion
The blazing, holy environment

With balance
Romance is a phantasm
Dissolved ecstatically in the other
The ego's love drives us (crazy)

A species of pathology?
Would one go  that far?
All I know of it
Is that there was a harmony

When paradox finds self
In evenness with other selves
Verticality is impossible
And we live as man was meant to live

A trump ta rum

Oh there ran, a wobbly tangerine,

For a little fun,

His wife he commanded, palm right up the skirt,

A rumpy pumped up trump, punched the solid air,

He swished around his fringe,

Squealing "Baby I don't care"

His wife is an immigrant who he'll have to jail,

----------or maybe not

Or could it be,

That the donald,

Is the same as you and me?

Who are obviously different,

Look at how your squinting,

Attempting understandings,

That are beyond your comprehension,

So lets see how it pans out,

How many broken friendships.

How many bleeding bones,

The tombs are making place,

For four by four homes.

Forever in ignition.

Well...............

At least they had a vote.

The dawdling sheep and goats.

The Possible Future


What is your fancy?
In time it could be anything
Any old dear fantasy
Father time quite soon shall bring

Whatever hallucination
You seem to like the best
Ours will be a nation
Of any act at your behest

Select any reality
Like the changing of a dial
Whatever deep mentality
Can grip you for awhile

The nearing Singularity
Could wipe us out or not
With such brutal temerity
Mother Nature lets us rot?

On the other hand, utopia
Technology makes real
A virtual cornucopia
Get high always -- with zeal

You see, what is really going down
Is the infinite's arriving
It starts to make soft sounds
Soon locomotive driving

That's the final secret, I suppose
Of all those old fraternities
Anything is possible
Jump on, and ride eternity

:chesire:
oh yeah, that's right.

but you know it's weird thinking about how you're gonna live a death. time becomes very permanent, and one's thoughts and well-being become very severe, when you do not betray any mercies.

Now but never.
Yet somehow clever.
Absolution certainties.
Communal Absurdities.

Harmonious ohm vibrations.
Self indulgent libations.
Depreciating yet static.
Implosion undramatic.

Ethereal zeal.
Fools real.
Apart can never sever.
Together deluded forever.

Junky lil poem

I dont believe in culture
I dont believe in man
I dont believe in future
I dont believe in "then"

I dont believe in Juda
I dont believe in Christ
I dont believe in Buddha
I dont believe in dice

I dont believe in fortune
I dont believe in fame
And when im with my poison
I don't believe in pain

There is something you should know

You have what it takes
To throw it all out
And push it all in

You might fear you ain't enough
To break through
And elevate yourself
Above the breaking line

Just look inside yourself
And you will find
It's really not so bad
And you don't have to be happy
with being sad

Oh, I know these words sound arbitrary
But come on now,
don't you see?
There's a world waiting
Just to be lit by your light

Trust is all you need
To flip it in on out
Slip into your dream
Crispy clean

The child you left behind
Is crying
Dying
To play

It doesn't have to be dirty
It doesn't have to be scary
If you fear you might lose it
Remind yourself of a summer morning

When the world didn't seem so grey

And you could feel the time,
With a weight of nostalgia
As it slipped
From
view

Once

when time seemed precious
And was not taken
for granted

Seen as lunatics these men who wanted to fly.
Their minds warped and consumed by the lure of the sky.
The spectacles were grand and thousands turned out.
They laughed and jeered, flap harder they'd shout.

As time and souls were willingly consumed.
The first glimmers of flight suddenly loomed.
As trials and tribulations unveiled the keys.
The hidden reasons why birds soar with such apparent ease.

The way that air flows over stiffend wings.
The crucial ratios that makes them sing.
The area it takes to lift and reasons why.
These were the stepping stones to the unreachable skies.

So it began the age of heavier than air.
With those previously crazy men, suddenly quite debonair.
They refined their machines and techniques on the dunes.
Now in front of the naysaying crowds the launched from balloons.

Soon the techniques allowed them to understand the dynamics.
The way that air is a thing of fluid dramatics.
The birds they had watched deeply understand it.
That energy is plentiful, height their gambit.

There is a whole new awareness to be understood by gliding.
Feeling and conceptualizing this new world that is otherwise hiding.
It wasn't all that long ago the air was the domain of only birds.
A new awakening of my senses and not a jeer to be heard.

Gnawing claims of righteousness.
Murky puddles of thought.
Deception enforced hastiness.
Validity perpetually sought.

Surrounded by fabrications.
Stuck fast by time.
Elucidated machinations.
Simple realities rhyme.

Scrawled existence only.
Stage show unveiled.
Fused yet lonely.
Importance curtailed.

Just out of reach.
Communal bliss.
Targets of preach.
Hit and miss.

Turned on each other.
Hunger games.
True freedom do smother.
Imprinted sames.

Uprisings bubble.
Nourished with hunger.
Capital trouble.
The cart sent asunder.

We have the tools.
We are the fools.
We missed the boat.
We slit our throat.

Redress impossible.
By measures of now.
Total destruction.
Unfathomable how.

AN ARCHITECTURE OF A SOLITUDE

I might see that place again
The dwindling ruins of solitudinal inner-tecture, crashing down on the scraped insides of a smashed cathode ray
Putty on the wall, nothing in there but an adhesive
Televisions lost in their own gaze, static electric mind
The lost face of a man without interest in speaking to you
My stolen interests, my forgotten wounds
My holy scriptures, my holy mountains
I might see that place again

Into a void sung the pains, my feet unable to continue the dredge
No one listened, not even an echo
Why no one came, why no one left the confines of the boiling kingdom
Not me, myself or I
The speaking lies of Miss May and winter chills through the abysmal glare of nothing but freedom from love
I consume the disaster
I consume the wedding cake and together we are in matrimony, it tastes like sawdust, the dust coughing into my mouth

Night spoke of some other realm to lead the others
I spoke back, but said nothing
Just poised my lips ready to frighten away the dark hawks of lost thoughts
I found them later singing alone

I might never see that place again


--------------------
Hostile humankind
Can't you see you're fucking blind?

To what?


Turn on
Tune in
Drop out

That I can grok

But what does one drop out to?
In all this time, no change
What is a young one to do?

There is no something else
Unless you want to be homeless
Are there other ways to live?
Or must we spend our lives dead

I dig the overthrow of old and evil
Paradigms that have the planet in a vise
But if one is looking for an alternative
One need not go far -- there aren't any!

How do we live?  You ask God
Is there any other way?
He listens silently with you
And provides the only answer you'll ever need

It turns out you didn't need to ask Him
There is only one thing that can be done
And that is to do it, or not
How much time is left?

Slippery tiller.
Short strings.
Progress killer.
Pointless things.

Drop out.
Decisions only.
Self doubt.
Society's lonely.

Grasp tighter.
Wrest control.
Problems lighter
Focused soul.

Tune in.
Pay attention.
Realising sin.
Understand reflection.

Turn on.
Be light.
Love shone.
Always fight.

Don't base your outcomes on a false society's scale.
Be content in the construct of your own mind and never fail.

Democracy


Lo!  In early years, what chivalry
Did soldiers and statesmen show
There was an aura veritable
An early republican glow

Continental Congresses
A revolution won
A splendid global victory
For every mother's son

Yet even early, cracks did form
From corruption's deadly vices
Money young gained prominence
To say 'twas ill suffices

And so, along, eventually
The process promoted greed
Citizen service impossible
Each Rep. to his own need

So now, we have modern democracy
The tradition of a federal republic
It authorizes the public to attend to affairs
For which perhaps they haven't the stomach

Or, indeed, the brains or will
To carry out effective voting
They'll authorize anyone at all
Even upon them doting

The Hamiltons and Adamses
Were right to be a bit wary
The public, for its common good
Should not be trusted very

So now we have unqualified men
Who should not have such office
Claiming that they have the fix
And they're the rightful bosses

When in fact, they break all promises
Acquainting themselves with the real
Expediency has many guises
In Washington, it's a deal

Look at what's happened to such an ideal
A country with limitless promise
Now it's dissolving, going away
At least this poem is honest

They are a representation of us.
We the collective.
Visual reminders of societal pus.
Only acting with our directive.

Endemic to the way we interact.
Cruelty just beneath the surface.
Under the guise of a communal pact.
They're merely colouring in an image we trace.

Far easier to blame the elite.
But it's really you and me aswell.
We live as though we aren't complicit.
Hurts to look around and see to us is their direct sell.

Shape shifting set ups.
Democracy but a phase.
Human these cock ups.
Perpetually important haze.

That last one of yours DQ is impressive, I like the way you obviously have something to say and structure your poetry around it...easier said than done especially eloquently.
