POETRY

Poetry is an occupation
one trained for in the heart.
Train by evolution of one's perspective.
with seasonings of love.
It grows from inside out
where words germinate
in mind and then is processed.
Breath expands
as feelings take hold
in side daily experiences
that add to a scribes platform.

Bug of creative forces
grabs hard
as occupation calls from soul
to writer.
One who must tap into it's flow
It's part of the job requirements.
Thus the poet sage is born.
Born to anoint the page.
for eyes to gether
and hearts to contemplate.
Inspired by post by Lawrence hall  of           -John Steinbeck, The Moon is
I saw words poetry is an Occupation

there are pumpkins moving around
the candle lights bright the surround
blood red fountain spinning in middle
people going to this haunted house over the hill

no one visits the castle any other day
but dressed vampires and ghost in black and grey
dance around feeling home in this spooky place
today, the other world get mortals embrace

They get to be the normal, not the one odd
today, nobody cares about the screams and shout
the transformation and apparition
today, no one believes those vision

They'll fall for the traps,
blend within the gaps
tricking and treating strutting around
the atmosphere lit with the hooting sound.
Eye of newt
          toe of frog
                scale of snake
                              bark of dog.
A cauldron boiling
                         over an open blaze
its vapor makes
                        an eerie haze.
A pinch of this
        a pinch of that
              a magic broom
                    an old black cat.
Cobwebs
            Spiders
                  creaking floor
                       scary shadows
                                 on the door.
                                     Howling winds
                                  pouring rain
                              curtains lick
                        the window pane.
             Groans
          and
              moans
                      a Ghoulish scene…

TRICK OR TREAT, IT’S HALLOWEEN!!!

Inspired by good old Shakespeare’s three “weird sisters”, Scene I of Macbeth.

“Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison’d entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights hast thirty one
Swelter’d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i’ the charmed ***.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg, and howlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches’ mummy, maw and gulf
Of the ravin’d salt-sea shark,
Root of hemlock digg’d i’ the dark,
Liver of blaspheming Jew,
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Sliver’d in the moon’s eclipse,
Nose of Turk, and Tartar’s lips,
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver’d by a drab,
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger’s chaudron,
For the ingredients of our cauldron.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon’s blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.”

Mirror, Mirror on the wall
Won't you talk you know it all.
You see me look everyday.
I will hear what you do say.

Mirror, mirror speak and share.
I will listen with no fear.
Am I beauty in this form?
I do ask I do so strong.

Mirror, Mirror tell no lie.
I will know and I shan't cry.
For you are so grand I see.
Now I'll stop to hear from thee.

Mirror spoke and said real clear.
Beauty is real as you stare.
Cause you are Divine it is true
Live with love its what to do.
Just playing with word mirror
To propose
a repose,
with the one I am close;
nose tipped
on nose,
and not a trace
of our clothes.

if i took a shot
for every time
i wanted you
but couldn't have you
i don't think
i would ever
be sober

i don't want an easy stroll
into happily ever after
i want a passion
that will fight through anything
for the good ending
we deserve
