Verse void


Synapsing Reflections

Timeless vision is growing in decision
            white lilies force themselves through concrete.
While hollow trees met with the precision
of a flight of a thousand leaves
            moist soft sounds surround
            the galaxy of space within the
            confounds of time.

Clear pristal pool with loud voices,
            echo back and forth in my veins.
Visualizations of eternity are swirling
And the crystal ball conceives to sink.
            saturated noise resounds
            the nothingness of love within
            the unmatter of time.

I am alive for only a single second a day
One second I, grey azure white, embody the present
            Embodied/Embodying/Embodies existence
            But resistance is present
            Resistance of the present dismal, insistful decision?
A vision!


Run like fire to the toad’s treasure
            find the eye in his mind,
            wish for a hundred days that have past to be replayed again
            wish for the crystal ball revived.
Run like fire to the funeral pyre;
            flowers burn and melt in the flame
            petals are splattered along the ceremony.
            flowers defiled and frayed.
Petals are burnt; petals and dirt
Unmatter
To the sane

The insignificance of eternity
Swallow inside of me
            And fountains from a crystal pool.
Like the tundra in pristine icicle deliverance
            The morning rolls
                        towards
                                    mountains of time
Along the savannah the present slowly wakes
And casts a shroud over the eternity I create

Verse void


Conversation before a Departure

Where are you going my
love? to the ends of the
                                world
dear. Why?
Because I am cardboard
and I float. I think
                                you
are mistaken. No,
the air is drowning me.

"So i wake up" a link roundup

So i wake up, still asleep
and fasten my seat belt for the day.

My engine runs and i begin
a way through winding roads

i have some time to go,
the muffler groans

but senses are numb,
i travel slow.

Sometimes the words you chose have exactly the right meaning in themselves. So rather than an in-poem illustration, below is an alternative. The paragraphs correspond with the stanzas.

With Halloween over, the public has been conscious about recycling and reuse. Some towns even have rewards for such green-minded people.

Some new programs are growing across the ocean.


Not everythng progresses though. State Rep. Claytone Luckie (from Dayton, Ohio) recenlty preposed a new bill to plant microchip tracking devices on homeless sex offenders.

Safety is safety, but i don't want to see the government begin to actually embed tracking units into our skin, passports are enough. Once they're given the OK to do it to humans rather than documents, well its kinda like "if you give a mouse a cookie."
