The serpent around my eye
in perpetuity eating its tail.
A sigil to represent fluidity,
sheds its skin to no avail.

The Truths play around my head in loops eternal,
infinite possibilities of *******,
fractal gems cavorting in lustrous oceans,
that cleanse an hours disgrace.

Pan-Dimensional
and Omni-Directional
Truths are connecting.

Ouroboros, protector of the Tree of Life,
his apple is the gift of Knowledge.
Are those tempted weak and futile?
or hungry for the secrets of Cronos.
The fruit of Wisdom picked, and devoured,
in the garden quest for clarity.

And the serpent around my eye,
like a monocle allowing sight,
flows Truths into my mind,
reflecting matrices taken to flight.

If someone asks a question
that appears to be a riddle.
Just play it really safe
and put a Haiku in the middle  ;-)
PPx
.
The man walked, shuffled,
Through blisters & sores.
His shopping cart stutters
Past the laden stores.
He's lost his mind
On rocky shores
He had hopes and
Dreams galore
Now he can't find them
Anymore.

In the land o' plenty
The woman lives hard.
Barely feeding her kids
With a food-stamp card.

The soldier lost limbs,
Now he's alone.
He is "housed"
But has no home.

[chorus]

We know the rhyme.
We know the riddle.
But they still get caught
In the middle.

Caught in the cracks
The streets for some.
Cement & sky
Is not a HOME.


Emily sits upon the stoop.
Goes to kitchens to get soup.

Michael lives.
He breathes.
He talks.
But he sleeps
In a cardboard box.

[chorus]

They're called vagrants.
They're called bums.
Labels they can't overcome.

Like wooden ships
Their only sea
Is in a bottle
They can't break free
Where's your HEART, society?
Where's your SOUL?

Your EMPATHY?

BRIDGE:
We must repent.
We must atone.
We ALL are guilty
To the bone.
We must help them

FIND A HOME.

Inspired by my reading.
I'm just writing it so it doesn't
"Go away"... I'm sure you can relate!
The Love Tips
A kiss makes the chords of soul to vibrate
And entire body is transformed in ecstasy
It is a touch of class which is but to initiate
The bodies dance with the spirit of intimacy

Love travels in trance in circles to flow
Beauty takes pride in such a circumstance
Thundering light hits all the candles to glow
Thirsty spirit takes chance after chance

Let feel free to be in the air like towers
Let feel the taste,flavor of red juicy lips
Let take bath in wonderful love showers
Let time keep in its chest all the love tips

Nothing's on my mind
Least of all, you
Because the world scatters its superstitions
In varying shades of blue

Sacrifice your sanity
To chase bliss with calloused feet
Sacrifice your yesterdays
For a glimpse of tomorrow's heartbeat

Sacrifice your piteous condition
For a second chance at history
Sacrifice the bittersweet aftertaste
After you leave what's left of me

Nothing's on my mind
Least of all, you
Because the world spins on emptiness
In varying shades of blue
Heat and dust
storm clouds
forming
about to bust

The metro bus
chugs up the hill
to the engines
determined will

The buildings
reek of history
Made by people
we no longer see

When the sun
goes down
night has become
day for everyone

Clouds now depart
the moon smiles
gives a wink
across the miles

Never reaching
the end
my love
I forever send
For all those knights
You laid on white Satin

All those Dukes , Nobles , even Kings
Try as hard as you want to forget them

You gaze at the stars
that glitter like your diamonds

Cold empty heat
that love's lost all reason

That cold hearted orb
you call a heart

No room for light
so black so dark

One day the Knights
will no longer be shining

As you lay on white Satin sheets
crying
Waiting on Rain
Waiting on love
Waiting on reality
blue skies up above

No Rain in sight
No words falling down
The page  is covered
with dirt from the ground

No poems are presented
The voice so parched
The emotions are lacking
so stiff and starched

Will the skies again darken
The words tumble down
Bringing back life
To seeds deep in the ground
Tribute to missing poetess Zara Rain
Displaced Resident

Your soul anxiously stirs in me
You can take it if you so desire
My love my golden green sea
For your sake I am ready to retire

I am indebted to you for the gift
How dare I should utter a word
My heart and soul is just in a rift
I know I will no more be heard

Love surpasses all I understand
Beauty takes care of the incident
Same frequency, on same band
I am but a real displaced resident
