The Ode to Joy

Flatfielder Jan 2021
Three pine trees moving gently
In the new years morning breeze
I feel renewal sitting quiet
An old friend placed a call
We chatted laughed remembered
Old friends the younger years
Many passed others clinging
Stories never seized
I see the magic pinecones
Attached to the 100 foot pines
My neck stiffens when I look up
Dizzy focus towards the ground
A lone pinecone landed
On the fallen fluffy snow
My thoughts now interrupted
Joys and glory times
Stepping back with dimming memories
Placed with the pinecone in the snow

Sharing some thoughts
Within the restrictions
Of human expression
Not coming across
Yet do keep writing
So it is for myself
This moment
When I find truth
Just met this aincient fact
In a solitary booth
Just this

Nourishing moment
Drop stuns a face
Rolling down a windshield
An amazing race
Earth's yearnings
For the nectar of Life
Witnessed on grey mornings
When hope wins over doubt

Not to need a reason
For explaining a state
Found in advanced aging
When past nowhere on a scale
Avoiding comments or displeasure
With oneself
It's society within to reside
Steps are shorter now
No leaps leaning wide
Enter the new hemisphere
Without temptations glide

Repaired but not really broken
Was the verdict
When I examined my online find
In this time of distance
Brought home by a third party guy
It showed within a few days
Paid up and as honest as being seen
Repairs done by professionals
My BMW requested
some careful screen
Now home she likes the street
She hugs and she leans
A thrill to drive
Great pleasure indeed
A bit beat up, fit for the owner
Flatfielder Nov 2020
When resolutions become
empty space
In a lifetime
Why wanting to change
Only to adapt
To what is the question
Individualism is speaking out
Remind yourself while living
Of your adrenalin your strength
Do you hear your breakout shout

Fascinations then obsessions
The latter be short-lived
Resurgence of sensibility
Once omens observed
Mans' intellect ignored
Baseless assumptions
floating about
Easily dismissed
To be forgotten in an eternal shroud

Ya right
Down the middle
Separated or joined
Ideology or mayhem
A country split
Let healing begin
Outsiders are listening
Histories' comparisons being made
Read and educate
Acknowledge true Media
Start your own
Throwing insults at each other
Never heals a bleeding womb
Ignore slapstick politics
A tool right now used

Radio tuned Sam Cook not to miss
'straight through my lovers heart's
My wife grabs my released fist
It's piercing it's vibrating
Makes us feel to dance
In the kitchen as in all places
We don't see a fence
No heartbreaks here
We are long over that
Our ages our times
Forever been put to the test
Swiping our feet
Holding on to each other tight
A break of duration
Enough to replenish
Our energies might
Good feelings and unison
For a minute or two
The time again paused
It was nice
Flatfielder Nov 2020
Doors and windows shut
We shiver
Waiting for sounds
Tensions are rising
Blood rushes to our foreheads
My legs are hurting
Scratches on our bedroom door
Intensifying
Getting up time
Our dogs time clock has spoken

Cowards are screaming
Yelling to the point of
Loosing their identity
A big massive fright
An outside subjection
To terror polarization hate
Bring the wake-up calls
Don't wait

Flatfielder Nov 2020
Aincient connections
Histories embedded
Spiritual pragmatisms
Species survivals
Instinctive actions
thrown out of balance
A new world order
When humans took reign
Compassionate struggles
Seams busting
Struggling movements for change
Dynamics shall find again
Shrinking self-righteousness
More hope and less pain

Drain me of pleasure
To be numb frightful and bound
Sink your teeth into my flesh
Rob me of willpower
So I can crawl into myself
A heap of my being
Let me rest steam for the hour
I will escape my jail
And head for the shower

Trembling
Time wasting
Mind searching
For self
Who am I this morning
Cold drizzle meets a late dawn
Opens pores on bare skin
Feel free but awaiting
The Lights glance
Penetrating clouds
An hour of my truth
Absorbed into the rigors of a new day

If one misses someone
Flatfielder Jan 2021
She gave me this smile
In the doorstep
Did cut through my distance
Disturbed any absences
While being approached
For discussion and fun
Games and companionship
While in self-imposed isolation
Will turf and disband
A new morning
When I shall return a smile
Again saved by her charm

Flatfielder Nov 2020
Soft was my texture
When we met
You liked my eyes
I was enthralled by all of you
We shared a new Lands sheet
Worked made children
Raised them fair
Love is a big word'
You once said
Just before our journey slowed
to a long days love affair
Lots of stuff in between

Sparks create spectacles
Watching in awe
Fractions of time
Lit up hydro poles
Forest fires
Tinder dry grain fields

Sparks ignite brain waves
Instinctively acted upon
For survival
Continuation

Flatfielder Jan 2021
Their core in upheavle
Very deep the unrest
'whattodo' time has come
Hormones  searching
Surround
Then numb
Feeling edgy
Wanting it all
Freefall never
They stay on top
Strong their mind
Keeping on searching
Gone the pressure
Reborn and proud
An upheavle
Flatfielder Dec 2020
The day has come
We will meet
Most of us
Can we all sustain
Our intentions or bust
Can we find intimate moments
Where we share pain and guilt
Where we find joy and happiness
Where we rekindle our trust
Can we walk side by side
Feeling close and be fine
Where we want to lead and to follow
All the same in one steps time
No annoyance uninhibited laughter
Give us a few hours
We rebuild
There is still one central figure
When we part
We hope  we are all in this guild
Family dynamics
Flatfielder Nov 2020
Years as a loner
Under the big changing Sky
work and commitment
Family shared, misbelief  a far cry
Yet down in his heart
A burning light
Hidden, secretly shielded
Condescending bullies outside
Illumination never extinguished
Shined at an occurence
Where clashes opened windows
Into a new bright world
He had to find a deed personal
To give it all he had
Persona physic in real time
No apprehensions met
Taking the reign of his gatekeepers' soul
Chose desires to be freed
To find freedoms mole
His mind at ease
A song danced his whistle
This lad with a brithel

Commitments for life
Their beauty their strength
A test came to find him
Didnt think too much in length

Hit it off in a wild way
What did he do
A night to remeber
Did they become friends?

He thought so
Her lifestory
Obsession it became
Emails he wrote with advice and goodwill

Replies sparse
Always to the point
A ****** theme no never a joint

As freespirited as they were
They stayed in touch
Frank bright and honest
Again he fell for her clutch
Her email not the longest
An invitation to lay near
Her body of begging
He did not have any fear
They met
as friends do and chat
Finally he begged  the question
Can i lay in your bed?

No was the answer
She curtailed his advance
To feel like a fool
And thanked her for the dance
#Forbidden love #oldfool #feelings #careless

The selfproclaimed king
Hoisted on this mound
Which is
As beautiful and tender
Breast of venus alike

All alone being up there
Is blasting his salvos
Into an empire of imagination
Truth to behold

Antlike creatures are scaling
Taking elevations then sliding

The mound is eroding
Its tenderness its hillsides
Dark and grey do we find

It turns into a spike
Creatures are falling
Taking with them the dirt

The spike becomes a needle
Only feared when its pointed
Let it lay down
Go back to the dirt

Imaginations become real
And the earth awakens
Once again

An individual's fate
Raising one's hopes
In realities scorn
Horizons seem closer
Far away now
One's day of birth
Longings for love
Emotional highs
Triumph the lows

Tomorrow is the future
Today is the last day
Yesterday I made promises
Last week I stayed away
Last month I caved in
To moodiness and lack of discipline
Look forward to the day after tomorrow
When I shall bathe in glory and sin

His heart races
He can't find no more spaces
A wound in his revolting heart
His ancestors remembered
Ancestry self denied
To visit a grave site
Abandoned
Yet they are still there
Caretaker assures
The parents grandparents
Many more
Now all one
One common name
Enshrined into the earth
Never forgotten

You still have that car
The sale shall happen
Or have I just gone astray
Again self judgment has come to me
You say let go

Explore the world we haven't seen
The corners the nooks
Icecream in the shade

Flatfielder Nov 2020
Mystical voices
Hidden behind towers
Whispering sound waves
Missing sweet scent of flowers
Left unchallenged
Invading populations minds
Approvals become main stream
A dangerous grind
Minorities shall rise
Convince forgive and invite
Grow exponentially
The countries renew
And strong they shall heal
Freedoms communities angst individuals pain
To support and believe
Respect truth and caring
Never in vain

A glass of wine
I long for this morning
End of the day mealtimes
Us lucky citizens
Our pantries loaded
Stores full to the rim
Fourty percent waisted
This claim just came in
More food than we need
Yet hunger persists
In huge areas of this planet
Due to inequalities sin
What's wrong
Citizens priorities make that list
Socialists find your place
Liberalism a middle ground
Questions remain
Strongholds of religions
If not used for righteous claim
Boundaries on this earth
Delete wars and pain
Now
Bring back Compassion's Dame

Feel like crying
Scream literally
Tight in my chest
Want to bust that wall
Release my anxiety my fear my none
Been told and ignored
Must endure but how long
Longtime ago said goodbye
To my flashes hotspots
It has come back
**** the past
Am I a fraud
A Scheister looser
Bailed so many times
Brought forward are the questions
move on your miles are stretched
One last hurry
Walk that mile
Make that a quest

A thousand miles you travelled
To cross the desert sand
to empty mind and spirit
You enter now the fertile land
Will you stay
Or move on walking
Refreshed and nourished satisfied
You could find solace
Settle down
Forgetting Angst and fences
But you do still think about
Your ever present hitches
