Loving in axiom, and eager in Poetry heart to show, that she may reap some comfort of my pain: joy may animate her to read, which may allow her know, understanding may charity win, and charity beauty obtain, I sought right words to draw the darkest sight of woe, surveying devices fine, her thoughts to entertain: often tossing others' wits to check if then it's flow some new and healthy rains would come upon my desert brain. But words sprung stooping forth, needing devices stay, Device, a poet's young, escaped Knowledge's blows, and strangers feet seemed obstacles in my way. Thus great with kin to speak, and defenseless in my throes, gnawing my fugitive pen, chastising myself for spite, Twit, said my inspiration to me, peer into thine soul and write!

In the castle by the sea, lovely stands
there she, at the gemel window, waiting for the tears to cease trembling down her cheek, for O! how her father didst scorn her for her fears, and for being mild as an child, for being meek and weak. As the streamlets hushédly didst outflow, go by, like the ceaseless and despairing cries, that this poor princess didst as ever know, and know so well, did she, that no other soul didst so bother to come to know, O! come to know her they did naught e'er do so -and her story ended in tragedy sadly in the castle by the sea.

The instinct to nurture a desire with anticipation,
cultivating it with a natural tendency towards care and affection,
proves that a distinct need for happiness exists, but might also provide injury.

Be that as it may, I bid you to stay true to your expectations if you fail,
and not be a prisoner to a dead-end destiny.

Summon the strength of inimitable motivation, and Success may itself avail, at least that is the indication of history.

A maker of verses is the refined poet, he does find
Emotional thoughts sublime, inserting some formulae,
Or enigmas that are behind each sustained line, each I

Tell wilt unwind, then that rhyme to be mimed,
The lowest crime in our kingdom mounted up on high.

So if in thy cheerless failure ye seek intense success,
Because ye  subjectsto listlessness of the bodiless
Mind's distress, I request ye give no such inference

It's egress or reappearance from the darkest eclipse
In this; but rather by keenest innovations do impress

-And that protects a poets wisdom from the nuisance.
My thoughts on plagiarism.

Here, where the sphere remains quiet,
Here, where all torment rightly seems
As do breathless winds before the riot;
And clouded visions o' cloudy dreams,
Do watch the pastures there growing,
For harvesting lads and such sowing,
For the reaping hour and the mowing
-A sluggish world of sluggish streams.

I have grown weary of sobs and laughter,
And folks that crow and those that weep
Of what may come there in the hereafter
For those that soe and too swiftly reap;
I tire o days that grow weary of hours,
Wafted buds o those still lifeless flowers,
Desires and ideas; & also of such powers;
Of every single double thing but sleep.

Here growth has ruination as a neighbor,
And far from seeing eye and listening ear,
Pale waves and ****** winds force labor,
Flimsy ships and temperaments do steer
To drive out of control, & therein wither;
Woe not do those who place it thither:
But no such ****** winds ******* hither
-Nothing so felt, seen, or perceived here.

To overcome this still inertia--impassioned as I am with
my wise reservation--is a cumbersome thing wrapped in a naked singularity that does tuggeth me between sluggish grief and brief elation. Betwixt the shore of imagination and the nexus that is the horizon, I revel in a non-spatial continuum of sanity, watching the celestial spheres in constantly changing velocity above me circle around a periphery, each like a space born diadem.


Released from reality, I see Thee with an adventure in hand,
(though it currently only resides in my minds travels.)
He is the King of Kings in His secret land, and it there that
is where the living conundrum unravels. I lose all of my attachments until I am free to be married to my destiny, which haunts my dreams and drinks up my being like a weeping willow tree: but at last I have surrendered to the
perfect Grace that has annihilated me.

Now there is only the diversity in the unity that has
awakened my natural love, empowering me to attempt the
ascent from this mortal levee, and kiss the endless sky above.
A collaboration with my father, Doctor of Theology Randolph L. Smith

We were but void inside, depressed and hollow folk; and we were found to hide, beneath the blue-grey smoke; and crawling like animals upon our bellies, filled with emptiness, and forgetful memories. O how we go, go thru the bankable pennies, bleeding assets, worthless yet again, being penniless once again -we were but void inside, depressed and hollow folk.

In the deepest recesses of surreal imaginings,
Issireen awaits to appear in lucid dream
--with a headdress made of a jade of
ivory green upon her spirituous head
of purposeful crystalline.

The only gateway to attain the pure excesses
of her beam, and all that she possesses
is the gleaming illumined stream.

To float on by the mysterious ringing spheres
one by one, finding balance in your curious thinking years,
will gently make ripples where there once were none,
and in the hereafter they make still or remove your weighty tears.

The sole visionary can stir a pool of serenity into chaotic
energies --asymmetries of colors, forms and densities;
which reveal aerie little faces which are reflections of dull
or intense entities. But if you try to seize the intangible wakes
caused by the faerie fins that race --like wings in the wind
of other realities
-they will glide thru your fingers like solacing
rain, casually and without pain.

Motion begets motion here, with a sweet gentle touch, as the
oceans of thought first do retreat before the inevitable rush.
Upon your arrival, Issireen can then emerge materialized full
into ethereal space with her hind wings draped over her uniquely
featured legs --outspread across the landscape.

She will be drawn beyond compare. When her immortal image
begins to take shape, a dreamer could naught but feel, but stare. Her eyes will seem to reveal raging complex colors, within
the borders of the iris is the reel of the engaging onyx shutters --into which you will then be the one drawn, drawn into those inescapable eyes. Drawn into the back of beyond -where tranquility lies unsurpassed in it's attribute.

Hear all the sounds that were never mute, see the banners outstretched
but never torn -instruments playing, stars that shoot, and lights that are forever on.

Tho I stand victorious by the world's edge -a true conqueror! you yet know how frail mine heart truly is; and my feet dangle in the waters of The Earth Mother, and freeze cold as The Underworld fires hiss! Thence, or thereafter, My Lover, you aim to put me to bed, so my head lies nestled in your chest, as you do slowly stroke my head. My heart beats a bit faster, as you let me know my worth... and I glide my hands gently down your neck -so cherishing the lace, before the bare skin like alabaster is-unearthed, as if to let you know how delicate your life really is: your very vulnerability; how easily I could take said life into my very hands! But rather I protect you from all the evils of Reality, from the depths of Hell. I guard your preciousness with my everlasting life, if anyone tries to hurt you, even Death himself, they all shall crumble at my Will. The sharp edges of my eyes will dull the blade of any knife -for I remain... The Immortal Lover still.

A king, a bard, round and round,
He seems retired, but hasn't found
What we see as universal truth,
Whereas it thieves him of his youth.

Now love stirs the  motley  fool
So his words might be dim & cruel,
Yet he crowns her then with jewels
Respect that comes with  *I love you.

Available in paperback on Amazon for $5. Written by me last year, it's a short cautionary tale full of suspense and intrigue. Please check it out. If you're an Edgar Allen Poe fan you'll enjoy it.

Ne'er say the attempt naught avails,
the toils and the struggles are vain,
the betrayer nay drops nor fails,
and as all has been, all doth remain.

For while the waves that are breaking,
seem to have no aching increase to gain
-long ago, thru brooks & rills making...
comes hushed

--flowing in

The Main.

I dedicate the songs within me,
To you, tho I forget their theme,
Be they many, yet these to thee.

And ev'ry atom, a part of I alone,
Feels, moves, breathes you alone,
For with you, I know life goes on.

Move a bit closer to me, patiently
Whisper your thoughts to me,
And I will kiss you deadly.
Jamie L Cantore Jul 2016
True love's beauty is a gem everlasting,
It's charm deepens with every passing
Of a moment -and will forever keep
An arbor still for us; and a gentle sleep
Full of dearest dreams & dulcet breathing.
Therefore, every day we are feeding
It Worth plucked from the tender Earth,
To watch it live & grow to greater worth.
Of gentle heart, of the joyous days...
Of all the flourishing & bright ways...
Which we count like the stars above
-Made for our pursuit of our true love.
Jamie L Cantore Nov 2014
This is the springtime of my loving,
the second season I am to know.
You are the sunlight in my growing,
so little warmth I knew before.
It isn't hard to feel me glowing,
I watched the fire that grew so low.

It is the summer of my smiles
-flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.
Speak to me only with your eyes,
it is to you I give this tune.
It isn't hard to recognize,
these things are clear to all from
time to time.


Talk     Talk


I felt the coldness of my winter,
I never thought it would ever go.
I cursed the gloom that set upon us,
but I know that I love you so.


These are the seasons of my emotions
and like the winds they rise and fall.
This is the wonder of devotion,
I see the torch we all must hold.
This is the mystery of the quotient,
upon us all a little rain must fall.
Jamie L Cantore Mar 2016
There I was, there was I, sojourning... so journeying to seek absoluteness with absolute certainty like a true voyager; a sojourner of Truth, when immediately upon my arrival, I realized, Aye, there was I, and my, oh my! I made ingress to a cloud floating upon a whisper in the eye of Nature, in Nature's eye; and she said to me with interest, in all her splendour, in that whisper that kills me so, "I was there." but where was I? Was I there when there I was, wandering in Wonderment by the by?  For where e'er I go, it seems, there am I.

Jamie L Cantore Nov 2014
The starlit evening nods very sleepily above thee,
So trace the daring, farther,
Tho smoother path across the dale.

Now that you are here, My Lovely,
Just let the indistinct hilltop winds
Speak softly in thy ear,
Like a caring father who dares
To laugh when you are near.

And ye be carefree, hale, and in motion here,
In place beneath a bright cloud veil.
However if your travels become a travail,
Or desperate frustration does upon you sneak,
Let it be, (but never let it prevail.)

And when this frustration ebbs to a temperate sensation,
See that your thoughts-not your woes-
Have a sanctuary for all ideally worthy modes of restoration.

After all, surely you will receive an image or expression
To be stored as a reward for your unfurled and true Merit.

But since it does seem to me that need must be,
I ask this important question,
And hope that you will finally grin and bear it,

"If next to all of God's gifts inherent misery should
Still be considered your inheritance,
How will you bequeath to all, not the burden,
But rather the unfettered joy, pure in the fairest sense
And sometimes in abundant supply,
And therefore be the world's to inherit
-Thus how can you this deny?"

Sages  whisper  truth  of  a  path  that's  narrow
And  most  difficult  to  ascend  for  humankind.
T'is  true,  I  know,  for  one  did  sing  his  mind
Thru  the  evening  song  of  a  vesper  sparrow

-And I hear Him beside my thoughts aloud.

To  overcome  the  passions  of  this  still  inertia
Mixed  with  my  own  mind's  keen  reservation,
Is  a  hard  battle  between  grief  and  brief  elation
In  the  cold  night  or  dreary  day,  and  vice  versa.

When  I  am  in  my  solitude,  I  choose  to  drift  by
With  the  dread  riptide  of  the  moment,  while
Striving  for  the  peace  of  the  ebb  tide,  a  smile
Upon  my  face  to  let  me  know  it  will  be  alright

-And I hear Him beside my thoughts aloud.

When  I  am  between  the  shore  and  the  pleroma
Violet  horizon,  I  revel  in  a  continuum  of  space,
With  the  music  of  the  spheres  whirling  apace
To  a  forbidden  rhyme  as  I  perfect  my  persona.

I  ­lose  all  of  my  attachments  until  I  am  free  to  be
Married  to  my  destiny,  which  haunts  each  dream
And  drinks  up  my  soul  like  a  weeping  willow  tree.   I  have  surrendered,  nearer  to  our  God,  to  Thee

*-And I hear Him beside my thoughts aloud!
Another take on the collaboration that I did with my father
years ago.
Jamie L Cantore Dec 2014
Sages speak of a steep path that's narrow
and difficult to ascend for humankind.
T'is true, for I have often read it in books
and heard it in the speakings of the mind.

To overcome the passions of this inertia
mixed with my own thoughts reservation,
is a cumbersome thing that does pull me
between sluggish grief and brief elation.

When I am in my solitude, I choose
to drift along with the dread riptide
of the moment, whilst I am striving
for the peaceful beach at ebb tide.

When I am between the shore and
the  violet  horizon, I revel in Time,
with the music of the spheres like
a dervish spun to a forbidden rhyme.

I dream of the beloved and the adventure
somewhere along my minds' bold travels.
The person and the secret place where
all of this old lifes' conundrum unravels.

I lose all of my attachments, until I am free
to be married to this manifesting destiny,
which haunts my dreams and drinks up me
Or all of my Self like a weeping willow tree.

At last I have surrendered to a perfect grace
that has annihilated me; then there is Love,
bringing unity in the diversity freeing me to
attempt the ascent, & kiss the starry sky above.
Jamie L Cantore Nov 2014
No mask could disguise your wise nature;
ye high scholar, who yet does retain a
moving soul within his line, with an ear
tuned to silence as you expound upon bold
situations, hidden in age old remote spaces
without nomenclature: for though you remain
plagued in an endless Drama, and are of the cost
aware, you write with wit the writ, and thru this
protect it's characters from the public with honor,
by filling the page with secret clues to these truths
which you must declare or suffer.

You are a man on fire, on whom despair does cause
pause, because for all of us does dismal loss bring the
gloom of the sepulcher. So ever remain a man over whom
thy decease cannot loom like stormy weather; a king over
his subject matter, who wilt remain a preceptor who is not
to be beset by savage settlers.

The ring of fellowship did entertain you in youth, and
glorious is the power of heavenly sovereignty on thy
conscious existence's tall stature! And forthright you stir
a generation into childlike veneration at an earnest
endeavor, bethinking before long thy charity of knowledge
shall carry thee into the halls of academic history,
( like all great philosophers.)

And thru systematic theory you taught us to ask ourselves
this problematic query, " If a man's slowly dying emotions
cannot continue alive internally, were they not dyed with
fugitive colors?"

So blest are they whose bosoms receive
The Lord's Word with Faith, not believe
Just because their ancestors did before,
Simply due to what we saith & no more.
Great victories of persuasions wrought,
And gained merrily by diacritical thought,
The comfort fallacious thaut; but so keen,
Of having with our natural eyes seen.
What if none had seen, felt, or known?
An extent on second thought they own.
By no personal mandate personally prest'
To exert themselves in effort they detest.


No misleading reasoning or reasons tied.
No one way being the only way to decide.
He is The Light; The Way; The True God.

All on this world, on this soil
And these grounds unfurled,
Raged. The thorny bush,
The thistle sage, pierced my leg;
And the weeds ate at
Everything!

Vibrations about the flitting wings
of a sparrow stir the knitting winds
that intimate the strain he sings
in delicate untainted rings.

The sound of placatory waves
splash upon the walls of caves,
echoing with a pulse and pace
that causes my heart to race.


My figure taut in fixed animation,
essence rapt by an incantation,
nothing expresses the veneration
I've always had for her creation.

I have been eager in my pursuit of devotion,
perhaps too eager, and the notion is beginning
to tell on me. This cause, this wanton desire,
needs, motion, dedication, and loyalty.

No meager affections are of high station,
but mine are more than that -more than
an unbridled urge: but I must hearken
her attention first.

For though my life's tide is not yet to
it's end, it is of finite duration. Is Fate
discouraged?
No!
The swells have surged independently
of the wind; and this fate is neigh longer
destined.
Jamie L Cantore Jun 2015
Love is torture,
Love is pain,
Love is an orchard,
Love is a grain.

Love is agony,
Love is misery,
Love is alchemy,
Love is a mystery.

Love is...
Torture
Pain
An orchard
A grain
Agony
Misery
Alchemy
A mystery too.

Love is what
Love is, because
Love is nothing, if that
Love is without you.

I will proclaim God to be The Almighty!

And nothing will stop me, not even
This Satan who continually attacks man!
Jamie L Cantore Nov 2014
Oh, in pains is my heart forsaken!
   as chastened use has chased away
what Love's abundance canst provide;
      and whichever path she may have upon
advanced or taken, I must hastened choose
                     to search this whole world imagined,
both far and wide.

Ah, how an eminence does make the maiden
youth where ev'ry other breath in innocence sets her
chest to fall, to rise; and now I speak just to thee in truth,
in case thou hasn't heard me hence, or believed me true.

Do cease the actions of mischievous type, as roguery isn't
worth the childish enterprise: rather to me extend thy hand, impassioned, as I to my goddess rise!

Allow me to enter, kiss thee upon that
hand as then, then when I would always
askance grin -ere I'm reduced to inanition
in your absence on this night, such as I have
often chanced to be when first astray in the
variable contrast of ineffectual obscurity.

In my thoughts a resident thou art, my fantasy
perceived as a great charmer, a beauty to beseech
-one whose constant sufferers are the broken heart,
it's action ceased within those past suitors which have
only been half-tutored in that ancient art, which to you
I did teach: but the unbelievers naked eye wilt see nothing
of your radiant form, which I defend, set truly apart!

Yet ye thru usury harm this poor man, as you hurriedly
dart out after I come in; in and out of my reality, on this
you are bent, one that the real world called strangely
marked, a world forlorn that fears that which it doesn't
understand, (or envies.)

Do you, mine maiden, not see things as they were; or in
your leave of absence comprehend that the complex of
elements that reasons hath made thee-as God did make
the universe in an ambiguous flight of fancy-where thru
convictions solely are such dimensions and reflections given
worth?

You are all that torments my fiery soul cruelly, so cruelly,
again and again,
as you do as e'er alter my Heaven, and make falser my Earth!
Jamie L Cantore Jun 2016
O Thou whose angel is in the holy place
Of human souls dwells there for a space.
Which from that quarter once conveyed,
To be to deep daedal daytime displayed,

Doth be lost, vanish, and leave behind
Mere barren and void of ****** mind,
Which froward urge doth seek in vain
With random desires to furnish again!

O Thou that in our torn rib cage shrine
Dost dwell desolate, obscure, but divine!
I thought to murmur, I resolved to say,
"The beacon is here, witness the way."
The cry was thus, and thus the Word,
And thus I saw, and aye! Thus I heard.

O thou, my divine, who in thy rule
Dost cradle Death's changeable effect;
Who by withering flourished true
And showered thy love widespread.
If thee, Chatelaine, must bring to ruin
That which she wishes to make prosper,
Then keep thee to this noble ambition,
That your savvy may Death dishonor,
And those moments he would dispatch
Shall go on, his intentions put to death!

When I do sum the moments of the dial
And spy the bold day to darkness fall,
When I survey youth advance the while
And sable coils to white unfold and dull;
When soaring trees shed their leaves,
Which formerly did a great marquee make,
And summer's blooming bound in sheaves
Stillborn in a tomb with webs on it's grave;
Then of thy allure do I inquest, I inquire,
That thou among the ebbing tide must go,
Since lovers & beauty do themselves retire
And die as swiftly as they once didst grow;
Then what 'gainst the passage of time
Can ensure survival, but a timeless rhyme?

When I do sum the moments of the dial
And spy the bold day to darkness fall,
When I survey youth advance the while
And bister coils to white unfold for all ;
When soaring trees so leave their leaves,
Which formerly did a great marquee make,
And Summers' blooms yet bound in sheaves,
Stillborn in a tomb with webs on the grave;
Then of thy allure do I inquest, I inquire,
If thou among the ebbing tide must go,
Since lovers & beauty do themselves retire;
And shrink as swiftly as they once didst grow;
Then what else against the passage of Time
Can ensure survival, besides a timeless rhyme?

Beloved Mortality,
I do not make haste
To ask my leave for
Impatience of thee,
Not in truth, despair,
Or in disbelief did I
Espy what others grieve
And seemed to fair a
Worthier world for
Me: but forasmuchas
I shall pass, and pass
Into a forgetting, I
Pass nonetheless.
Jamie L Cantore Nov 2014
We all slowly vanish from that hour of life when we are young,
a time thereupon
when we might feel immune to what has not yet become.
Those days when we never see Death as our lives among,
thinking our own mortality to be quite under our thumb
-just because we would bemoan
our contrite song if left unsung;
and when it's no longer thinkable that our maturity has downright come
-with the sum of our years being shy of fourteen and one-
then you would have a right man become,
my firstborn and least eremite-like son.

Such worth is there in the so urbane
Northeast wind, fingers that do seem
Hardly aware of the ecstasy that twain
Did doth tend 'gainst the mighty grain;
Driven hard from a blue-grey heaven.

The temperate blast does so e'er pull
Not one so beholden or more joyful
As this soul loosed from the earthy soil.
I yearned to retreat, complete in my will,
To be so held in my eyes quite reverential.

The terrain lies firm beneath my feet.
With joyous warmth, for so does beat
Anxiously mine most libertine free
heart I cast a glance to thee -this the
Drifting cloud that does too follow me.

Note that all worthy love is worthy thee note,
Blessing that within you, within that blessing;
Writing thee in Love, my only learning by rote.
"Guest," to "Heart"now you list so, I see guessing.

Blest, I writ thee, there Love was found best.
Gift by each musing or logic therewith,
That one forms, all in form,one that blessed
That one Heart is all my Heart, inside I live.

Better much that ye love certainly I. Mine adored
Gladly that darling and essential, "Nature."I espied
Never fault in thee, yet deep region, that I explored.
Be trusted as true; double seeing hearts be ALLIED.

ALLIED be hearts seeing double; true as trusted be.
Espied I that region deep, yet thee in fault never.
Nature, essential and darling, that gladly
Adored mine. I certainly love ye that much better.

Live I inside Heart,  my all is Heart, one that blessed
That one form in all forms; one that therewith that
Logic -or musing each by gift, best found was Love
There. Thee, writ I blessed. Guessing, see I? So list

You now Heart to Guest. Rote by learning only my
Love, in thee. Writing; blessing that within you, withinthat blessing. Note thee worthy? Is Love worthy all that note?

The eternal source of brilliancy is provided the province of

thought  as it cycles thru the organized conscience which you

might ought come to know by it's role of a being that's being

rolled into one, a sole entity with a constant vibrancy that

Genius lent, wherefrom laborers working with hidden aims

and methods can cause dissent amid the source if not well

done: but the tribute paid by a splendid poem repays the
loan without penalties,

Forgotten better be love that could not succeed, (true this was then denied.) Years to pass to sadder grief, by love we forced and contrived.

(And now to turn the lines)

Contrived and forced, we love by grief, sadder to pass to years denied then. Was this true? Succeed not? Could that love be better forgotten?

Bright aurora at my epicenter,
In sea surf foam, and shadow
Of the blue,
You pacify and
Imbathe me
with unabridged care.


The rhythm, the tempo
Of the fire, which dries each
Droplet from me, so bare;
Does lull me to sleep in the arms
Of you,
My Little Lovely Dear.
Jamie L Cantore Feb 2017
Therapy session going well,
I speak but only do half tell
Cause folks don't understand
Because they never half-felt
What I lock away -understand?

No.

They don't understand half so well
What is meant when eyes so swell
& a voice cracks -Folks, understand,
That you obviously never half-felt
So you don't quite fully understand.

Therefore I will tell all all, but I will
Bet you dollars to doughnuts, they still
Won't ... freaking... ahh!!! understand.
Based on a recent event, (2 months ago,) I experienced.
