#harbinger
the new dark age heart goes out world goes up all due to a love of concrete and iron indignities buildings grown in the heartland steel your future wrap your face in a foreign flag make it medieval so fear and superstition can live on each floor from above the cityscape blueprints of a pinball machine a train to nowhere like candles on a cake that will burn someday when least expected ladies against the glass of morning commutes show too much cleavage to people on Sunday gentlemen with their death sticks conjure the factory smoke poisoning a life of leisure these infinite vistas continue to rise elevation well in hand stitched together but growing apart the biomechanical soul a species out of control mother solitude and her modern failures take the stairs to the roof of her mouth progress leaves an echo her final words are empty, foreboding and full of lead

Heartland is Highrise, Highrise is Harbinger
~ *Tonight underneath debris Family foreclosure ... Heaven's legs dawn through window Offer artificial hope ... Employee to love Dressed for escape ... Pleasure town angel A multi-colored pretty thing ... Mom questions way Daughter drives to parties ... Empty lips talk **** reflection patterns ... Death inside mom and dad Beautifully cold skin ... War god kiss Midnight blue people (at dinner table) ... Young shadows flower Final stars fire ... Money born cloud Raining on remnants of family ... Is there nothing Left to mortgage?* ~

Failure to Receive Repayment Will Put Your House at Risk
And have you ever heard how poppies smell? They are so huge, so wild, so ruby-colored! They're summer harbingers, the lights of fields! They are so thrilling, brave and so uncovered! These poppies easily can put you to the sleep Or even **** you with no difficult at all! They're real flashes, doping! They're taboo! They're passion, craziness and sin in whole! And have you ever heard how poppies smell? They are as red as real blood itself! No? You haven't heard it? Oh, it's sad. You know, That's how heartfelt and true love just smells.

Have you ever heard how poppies smell?
~ *So where did you go? Where in daydream tarnation are we?      If only you could see my exodus      and relent Where are you now? Matters of blood and connection forming at the mouth we are the fabrication       --an image apart from ourselves To break is something sacred in the Morse code of brake lights      through time stained windows      through a thousand contractions the dead are getting younger If only you could see me walk into the blackness not to build a fire        but melt, wander, disappear        and relent        relent        relent* ~

~ *Apathetic city skyline This must be Drum Street There's critical thinking Digital tendencies Pigeons on the roof Kids in the library Hail and flashpoint Homeroom Their final resting place Who of you misses the bleak missiles of youth? And how they used to hit like needles? I can count your sufferings on my fingers See them hidden in the tall grass They move in secret With shadow blister As much as the caterpillar: Elusive and eruciform Sixteen crane wives Collect on the guide wire Their weathered plumage Strangely displayed Airplane debris on an uncharted wild Macabre flowers growing out of air masks, gone quiet The magic word is drear It's a sorrow-filled caw As if feathers from the grave Clothing our fears I can count the flock on my fingers See them separate in mid-flight Each a solitary path Fusing rage and grief Each a solitary path Fusing rage and grief* ~

Birds From Sad Films
Heaven sent on vibrant wings This harbinger of angels sings Alighting in his crimson splendor, Comfort to the mournful rendered - How blessed, the branch that grants him rest Graced with such a divine guest

I've hit my six sixty sixth follower oh what can that portend? I'm devil spawn, or evil marked or maybe just, an impish trend? The mark's an omen still books and other trappings set in movies and in theater known an augur dire, for the clergy gets upset A beastly moniker of old in revelations, so defined as ride the horsemen, four following, the grand design Lets light the bonfire, build it high and dance the moon, till full being naked in the light it's all a load of bull

Harbinger of doom
Petrichor Lured us to the forest floor No stone left unturned With hollow throats we yearned Yet no critter, no creature stirred Extinction thus had the final word

Disappearing Scent
You never realize you’re potent, Always absorbed to ponder differently! ***** Your argumentative nature Make many one peeved! ***** But no one realize Where lies the Idea of own thoughtfulness Alternative thinking! ***** You mobilize the collective To think alternatively And work differently To put colours in others life To make them blissful! ***** No one able to forget About your thought and effort To form a collective To putting colour of happiness for other! ***** Now everyone is committed to continue your endeavor ! To bring colours of delightedness to other!

Harbinger of livewire
I finally tracked him down: the person within me who could live without you So I made him a cup of tea and he began to prattle About the demonic conductor of my symphonic heartbeats, And the chthonic tranquility you once deposited into my life stream. He sniggered at how, even now, I still attempt to draw from that diluted reservoir In an attempt to discover anything more glorious that a utopian delusion, An unwarranted euphoria derived from what someone might call the “good times”- If I gave you the benefit of the doubt and admitted there really was a time your love wasn’t fictitious. But, I digress Because I wish you the best Even if the good times discarded are times I should regret There was a time when you uncovered my covert capacity for unexpurgated bliss- The likes of which I had dismissed As myth or at the very least unrealistic to attain. Even if all of the solace I find in our memories is disingenuous, I still thank you for way you fooled me. And that’s why I screamed at him. After the nightcap, I chased him out of the house for even flirting with the idea of his own existence. For I have not the fortitude to meet with him for more than just a few moments. Right now, I choose to cherish our memories until I forget that I love you, Until the day I’ll be ready to unite with my harbinger of recovery.

Harbinger (The Nemesis Tales Part 2)
I will ride this horse Until I'm shot down And even then I will Crawl along the ground Until I lift my eyes And I can see that right Has won the battle Against greed and might. I will pull myself up Through blood and pain Until not one square mile Of hatred will remain. I will call out those who Label villainy other names And strive to make them see That evil is just the same. Up to that precious day I will never rest quietly Until peace in our world Shall lie and rest beside me, Until this will come to pass I, the discontented messenger, Will point the way to integrity, And be its constant harbinger.

THE HARBINGER
I cry beware, there's danger there, But nobody is listening. I raise my voice and twist my face. There are tears glistening. I can see it coming like an ugly beast. Why the hell can't they smell it at least? This is going to be like a four-year tsunami, But sadly, one that won't go away. All the things we know to be destructive Are waiting in the wings. The freedom of us and our nation May not survive this thing. While promises of greatness resonate The putrid smell of recent history So impatiently waits the doom While fools bemoan their misery. The train wreck of modern life Reverberates in the ears of the wise And distractions abound in media While lies are waved before the eyes Of those loo lazy to leave the couch To vote or attend meetings or speak; To stand up for the rights they have Or find the peace they say they seek. The national criminals are thrilled Meanwhile, we are trained to wail And call evil names about trivia; About things like someone’s email And who stands or sits at a game, Or who is fornicating with who While, for some, there is nothing Too immoral some other person can do.

HELPLESS HARBINGER
The vultures swarmed above me, and I wondered if it was I who lay before their narrowing gaze. If they were fallen angels, Lucifer's harbingers, they'd have harvested on the soul I'd left to decay.

Decay
Fine droplets yearn in time discern Moving while script written We find beauty in forms we yearn In sweep of wind listen Our world a heart, rain is the mould Watch skies in blood towards rolled Our world, a heart Our world, a heart Clouds harbingers of lives untold

Zz Dark Oracle
Everywhere in the maddening race, You can see the selfish face Ready to **** ready to ****** Trying to push to the white collared batch. Humility, humanity are values forgotten, Fellow beings getting downtrodden! Life has lost its melody and color, Running mad to mint the dollar. We were not born to be caged… Alas! The race to fame is the latest rage Nobody wants to stop and stare, Everyone wants the boss’ chair. A dreadful desert our life would be, Happiness - a mirage will you see Lost will be our gifted soul And indeed, time will take a heavy toll. Let the life’s rainbow be of myriad shade, Beyond yellow, purple and red. Let us all widen our scope And nurture the seed of hope. Let the garden green grow to beautify the life’s meadow, Let the fragrance of fraternity linger And become the universal happiness harbinger.
