"abstracting" poems
from the plains drawings of smudging hands and the palms of warriors whose caves glittered in symbolic otherlands flowing into yesteryears with shifting tones abstracting melodies awry in the songs of language growing, from the blood of worldly pains and passionscapes of grounded glees which surge in transtemporal veins, to the gifting of a poem; cosmic movements ever novel in the constant flux of fleshy presence follow us in meaning— every dot and cursive plane, carries more than caligraphic feeling beneath the graphing of our patient, formal, brainy gestures (often blind to fools in Spring and better fates of wholly kissing lovers over flower-oaths) whose blindness in such sightly feeling, graph so many moments black: syntax, manner, unformed poems of wisdom’s grandeur; stifled in the academic dust. 9:30 pm above: praise gone awry. 12:52 pm still, this universe expresses its possibility through this minute verbia; prolix trivia swinging by the inquiries of existential mania and the hope of solid, open value. 1:29 am

Some poets have degrees, Be they Bachelors or Phds. But a poet, a poet is really qualified by experience, And the ability to distil language to the dance of written form, To transpose observations into song. Etching stretches of moments too short, Into something long enough to match the longing for it. Weaving yearning with touches of genius, Abstracting epiphanies from cracks in the pavement, Extending the halls of learning by Stencilling truths onto toilet walls, So that even to **** is to experience the profound. A poet is one who can make meaning out of madness, Pluck obscurities from the air, exposing the bindings of being, Or explain how words, in their whirling make the world go round. But a poet, a poet does not understand that ache inside, That ache that drives them to write, to whisper and to yell Words, metaphors and similies, in the constant attempt To quantify that special kind of hell, That haunts them, as ravings in their head, That inspiration that is their constant torment. And sometimes, sometimes its heaven instead, But that’s when it’s hardest to write Because suffering, when transformed to stanzas, Is somehow easier to ignite Than that intangible something we call joy. For something as simple as a smile Cannot be matched by any extravaganza Of words no matter how we try. But a poet, a poet will spend lifetimes trying To describe that very sensation, that fleeting Sense of something greater than oneself, greater, Even than the offerings left in ink at the poet’s Altar of a page. And sometimes it will be so hard, this attempt to transcribe Emotion into a form decipherable to others That the poet will feel only rage, And exhaustion, Till even the point of the pen begins to expire But a poet, a poet, even in the pits of despair, Does not retire, For there, lingering somewhere Above in the air, is a glimmer of truth Just waiting to be shared.

He’s a ***** of in- tellectual acumen. A real conveyor of post-modern acuity. What he has to say doesn’t make sense to me. No one understands his esoteric complexity. He speaks of Aristotelian “virtues”, Platonic Forms, and other “practical” participation by the particularities. Part of all that not even he fully understands. Juxtaposing Quniean “webs of Knowledge” with Davidson Coherantism He is challenged by McDowells 2nd nature Bildung. His conventional English is thus un-sung, while meta-physical abstractions are then hung Out to dry, in the abstract realm sky. What color is that sky? “Unfair Question” he cries. “Tell me about God” I ask, “very well” he replies. My brain is numb after one question, and a few words. He continues, “Do the God(s) agree upon what is good?” Yes is my reply. “If so, do they love what is good?” Again yes. “Then, is the Good whatever the God(s) love, or do the God(s) love what is Good?” He must be on drugs. A little philosophy makes a man an atheist. A lot makes him a believer, just not in God. He praises Reason, his room is a shrine. Within four walls one will not find, no not any sign Of conviction. What? All this time thinking, reflecting, meditating, abstracting, observing, weaving grand tapestries of thought and still he does not find a foot hold in reality? What the hell were you thinking about? He responds. A stream of consciousness is all that is, past is a referent future is a predicate. I am not the “me” I refer to when I say “my book.” No sir, I have never spoken to you any knowledge of me. For that I have none of, but knowledge I am not without. If it is one thing I know, it is that I know nothing. I tell him certainly my English teacher would know something to defeat him, I am soon disenchanted, for he has ammunition for her. “Ask her”, he says “to ascertain the truth value to this grammatically perfect declarative Sentence.” Colorless green ideas sleep furiously.

Cataracts in this woven cavity abstracting any possibilities for those what if stories. chasing pavements of a burning after glow you seem to love me better when I expect from you the worst. Textile appeal becomes a reluctant approval of what your eyes profess and what your lips have sealed. Salt on the wounds that resist to heal; barbarous attempts to suppress those skipping heartbeats. I do not ask much in return for your favor not much but a clean look in my eye; purge out what you **** in and with all the stories, mercy me- -Mercy me for irrevocably admiring your intense appeal and your pretentious heart; which to whom you play roles of Ares to only discover Aphrodite's mark. Mercy me softly and do you not destroy me far beyond subliminal repair; Do not bewilder me a wanderer but mostly, do not condemn my heart to clutter. Mercy me if your words have any meaning and your eyes are not of all deceiving; mercy me. Profess what your eyes confess but your lips have sealed and mercy my poor heart for loving you so.

Mercy Me
the languid liquidity of linseed-eased pigment as the bow of brush stroke sweeps a new hue over the layer of vermilion, this feel of silken resistance, this quality of vividity, this aroma that countless painters encounter whilst abstracting sunflower or sunset is what gives pleasure to my paint.

The feel of
I remember that day by the orange glow you sat next to me head on my shoulder I never felt so content so connected as I had that night with you both infected The ecstasy of that moment we shared blinded us to the truth woven by our teenage feelings I don't remember why I refused to listen or why even now I go back to that moment I don't understand why your smile stills haunts me your laugh infests my dreams your touch locks me in place your presence penetrates my thoughts abstracting adolescent love such petty insignificant things that keep me wide awake in the dark

Petty Insignificance
Like the swell of the screaming sea That drowns the awaiting sands, Unpredictability overthrows reasoning- Abstracting me from all that still waits. Unreachable, surreal- As though life’s seams have been divided By a tongue, rendering me voiceless Amidst a thousand voices. Words are devious; deceptive like the silent tears That soaks my cold sheets at night. Thoughts are a curse, merciless and unforgiving, Plaguing honest judgements, It is only within childhood innocence That I find safe solitude. In duty and in contract I’ am bound, Though my heart is onboard ship To familiar English shores. Unceasingly my mind seeks out the shadows, Torturing my affections with their poison Of the one who holds my barely beating heart- So carelessly in his hands. Anna Elizabeth Rose ©

The End Of A New Beginning
Can this be my candy kingdom? Solipistic modifier Confectionery sweets make my teeth feebler Weaker the confines of my mind let me linger Why can't I stop Abstracting Is that a bad thing? What is real and what isn't Catch me navel-gazing introspective nonsense ruminating. Can it be illuminating? My mind feels fuzzy I'll tell you one thing ... Could this be my candy kingdom? pondering.

Never leave the house
*The timer on the bomb,  the digits strutting to the outer parts of the atmosphere. Crippled balance, tangential distractions abstracting the parallel walk, the way they interfere. The ache right below a sharp collar bone,  Mistaken for the invisibility it's shying behind. The small shadow in the afternoon sun, And the absence of stir in the dumpsters of local satellites. The way the small hellos obscure the newborn volcanoes tossing venom on the riverside. Telepathic interventions to the moon, A friend indeed, when aspiration super-saturates the earth borderlines.  So what if each arm desires to embrace both corners of the sky, to publish each entry of the dreamy cerebral residents. So what if I'm dying to learn of every curve of the universe, and finally decide if I could finally land in a dimension of interest.*

These days, I spend my lazy days coming up with phrases to say. A delay is to wait. So what am I waiting for? A torn deliverer departs saying life is an art form. Sworn to protect his endeavors. Swift and as light as a feather. The blue embarks to make his mark on this world in due time. So I wait, and I wait out the hate this country has torn into. Pandora's box locks from the outside. I'm not hiding, I'm living in plain sight. In due time. We all wait until the day turns bright enough to ponder more. We have all fought the night enough in excellent form. In due time. We will rise as a nation guided by unspoken voices. Verses and choices. In due time. We stay alive till the coming of dawn. That's just fine. In due time. Generations wait belated unto their fate. This is our time. We rise up. Uncriticized this is our time. We rise up. One as a nation. Two as a people. Three as a crazed individual on a soapbox. Four as the children with smallpox. Five as the ones who just try to stay alive every night when the light shines too dim. Six as the individuals who act on a whim. Seven as those who pray to get to heaven but work all their days at a seven-eleven. Eight. Those who wait. Well wait no more. We are the infinity score. The war torn worlds go down when they sleep and so as not to make a peep we plan in silence. Abstracting violence with peace. We sit in hollowed out churches without verses because if we speak the truth the worlds seams will undo, that's power. One day will speak for hours for us. Those of us who are meek and delirious. Still stand proud. Yes I'm loud. Say into the light signs. Stay until the night time. Weigh it all and that's mine. Yes I'm loud. Take the voices. Reiterate the choices. Learn it through osmosis until we're comatosis. Gleam what we mean when you read all these words. Your life is better for it. Just a phrase as it turns.

The painter in Me By Otuogbodor, Okeibunor I paint not with brush strokes On weary canvas Nor with mesh colors Darkening my concepts. I paint using no tattered Coates Expressing my pains Nor with mute abstracting mixtures Contradicting my designs. I paint with words straighten in lines Juxtaposing my world in humournic gospel. I paint with lyrics n rhymes Soothing the souls of my clime Positing joy n laughter. I paint with literally candor Subjecting pains n sorrows Mirroring my world in truth My rhythms of love n peace The only colors I know. My language is succinct Rendering sounds of blue n bliss Greasing humanity crave to live. I plaint not with staled oil Coates Staining the muse of creation. I orchestrate my colours in word vibes Thrusting my Visual syncs to heal For I cream my onions with ease Printing my ego on black n white. -------------------------------------------- Oh God bless this painter in me!

The Painter in Me
i'm ready to misspell your name and ready to write a poem, and weep, and drink: no sight of Saturn's meteor rings to quench all lunar orbits could ever equal you: whether in painting, or in mirror, or in ghostly glass of an atlas.... god.... i'm abstracting you by way of erasing memory! in acronym s.t.a.y. i'll give you my bog shelf of time, the stinking pit of worthy portrait; but then the canvas of constellations is too unfathomable, and even if i succeed at a body bound to defeat, even if my thought rises to a Martian soul of constant warring, i am but                death's defeat,                on the consistency of repeated life; for the Hindu credo speaks of the death of death as the tongue lap dancing to the tune of reincarnation, where nihilism is necessary, to gather the self within the canvas of knowing nothing, and yet painting something; absolved on the banishment of signature with caricature.

cosmonaut ode
Sometimes it hits me Like one to many shots of whiskey after a late night binge the taste of tequila and regret stuck to the back of the throat like some nasty film Vaguely reminiscent overly ripe peachs When the world goes dark and all you can do is hope to wake to something better The kind of sudden drag that seems to smack you so hard you drool Like the brain can't comprehend what it's thinking, feeling, or even what God **** planet it's on anymore Some sick lingering psychotic paranoia that can only be dreamt up from the bowels of  some deranged lunatic The kind of thoughts that would if spoken give you one straight ticket to crazy town Where the good ones fall into the sanctity of drugs and the wack jobs play in their bird cages tweeting insanity Those moments when the brain goes quiet like some old tv buzzing it's electric static Hmmmm hmmmm hmmmmmmm Rhythmically ringing the fuzzing sharp inhalation Cotten wrapping the ears, eyes at the tantamount and hands on auto The brain checks into where the person checks out and it takes control Those 80 mile hour thoughts where driving off the road and not stopping meets the white knuckle grip I could do it there is no stopping the lurching slow tilting wheel Nor is there anyone to breath me back into control To take the knife off the steady sturdy rhythm, to stop the ****** up intermingling of sickend morbidity It is unlike the calm and even character clicking past the blinking static Blipping from the slack jawed intensity like some victim of PTSD Still teeming in the aftermath like some sick puppy waiting on the ride to end It's terrible and equally ****** up this abstracting feeling is like never waking up Strung out on some mental drug causing the heart tripping hazard of frequency Like falling in a dream only to realize you had never slept

that's nice, mm, that's nice, cover it up, keeping up appearances, let's smooth it over, butter it up, mm, slimy pistons moving easily greased? indeed, for someone who is to master the names of many things, you seem overly concerned over-using pronouns, so you can't get coordinates, you're abstracting basically, smoothing things out, you're the easiest to spot abstracting via a censor methodology, i know you're not a philosopher a snake eating its own tail with verbiage of having thought out so much you could claim to be a miner, but buckling to a pancaked face when told to do rhetoric... they really really do want to steal that page from your hands, it's not a set-list, you're supposed to be a trained monkey, white paper and stages don't work unless they're hidden... but **** me, eroding your memory like that, you must really love your work to remember it like prayers... i don't get it, politicians get away with it, it's not heartfelt, it's autocued... poetics promo... but why is it promo (reveal), so abstracting means revealing? i thought it was more like hiding something and getting caught ************ poetics occulto? so which is it, abstracting is a way of revealing something or hiding something? i mean, overusing pronouns and not engaging in proper noun usage seems a bit futile in a multicultural scenario of cubists using african face masks for inspiration, excessive bloom of lips and nose sharpened by the artists's eyes into needle thin contorts - africans don't like things being bouncy and bubbly... they like sticks it would seem.

that's nice, mm, that's nice, cover it up, keeping up appearances, let's smooth it over, butter it up, mm, slimy pistons moving easily greased? indeed, for someone who is to master the names of many things, you seem overly concerned over-using pronouns, so you can't get coordinates, you're abstracting basically, smoothing things out, you're the easiest to spot abstracting via a censor methodology, i know you're not a philosopher a snake eating its own tail with verbiage of having thought out so much you could claim to be a miner, but buckling to a pancaked face when told to do rhetoric... they really really do want to steal that page from your hands, it's not a set-list, you're supposed to be a trained monkey, white paper and stages don't work unless they're hidden... but **** me, eroding your memory like that, you must really love your work to remember it like prayers... i don't get it, politicians get away with it, it's not heartfelt, it's autocued... poetics promo... but why is it promo (reveal), so abstracting means revealing? i thought it was more like hiding something and getting caught ************ poetics occulto? so which is it, abstracting is a way of revealing something or hiding something? i mean, overusing pronouns and not engaging in proper noun usage seems a bit futile in a multicultural scenario of cubists using african face masks for inspiration, excessive bloom of lips and nose sharpened by the artists's eyes into needle thin contorts - africans don't like things being bouncy and bubbly... they like sticks it would seem.

Landscape painted black Foliage drowned in shadows Everything swallowed. Ocean of blindness Inhibiting all vision Abstracting the world.

drawing nigh near emptying the well, sometimes I feel like lying saying hi fear come nearer my soul, sometimes I do making truth abstracting feel, like I am dying with chattering teeth my whole, at times shivers my mind fabricating a soul, everlasting

death approaches abstractly but
I will speak interms of confusing metaphors and allegorical descriptors for You will never know what I mean, and I will never know what I mean, all You and I will ever know is what is said Beyond that thou art which is not Who I am and what I am is anybody's guess, Where I am is in poetry, when I am is poetry How and why I am is a poet. an artist chosen by this art A puppet of words that string me along, That dangle my reflection on the scene. and What's this scene? The dream of this stage, an age to redeem this day, this momentary cage of sound and phonetics, playing on the morphemes, that sort these informants into proteins that fire the works of this neural chemistry. A cosmic tapestry... And I've lost the plot of this pointless exercise in passing the time as I pass this chime down to the last rhyme. With no point but a line, a single continuous line that's only sometimes audible. With no beginning and no end but always a middle. A halfway mark between now and then Half and half all the way to infinity, Trapped in this trinity plus one. The subject, the object and the verb plus all the fillers in between, Adding the jective into obviously obnoxious obstancy. Abstracting words from subtracting the colors of birds... Man I really don't know when to stop. Nor does he, when he spots the plot that keeps the inserting eye from searching the skys to admiring this fly. Zipping in and out of space, never able to pin it down between his chopsticks. So maybe I should stop this Right here, left now and take flight, Tata bye.

“Any future plan?”, she asked I told, “To grow, taller than the height Heavier than the weight.” “haha”, her surficial response I was abstracting my dream. She thought it is fun, Nah ! it’s my life. Let it be.

Water falls the cascading rythm shadowing the back of my thought As I watch the school tide flow The lonely fountain bench becomes my muse Where I exist outside of time Staring into the listless movement of tree leaves Stuck once more to the own cadence of thought Echoing in the silent recess that has become my mood While I cannot turn my eyes away I am not really seeing Not feeling Abstracting from reality Pulling back away from the conscious buzzing back and forth between necessity and possibility. In my delirium I focus unexpectedly   On one thing The only thing sticking its green leaved beauty against the harsh brick facing Tickling the crevices with its agelessness A solid magnolia tree Reaching for blooming glory As if plucked out of some Georgian Southern tale Ripe with the splendor of health It seemed so out of place next to the young tree bushes that surrounded it A solid reminder of lasting strength I wondered That should my roots become so in love with the ground they could not falter Could I mimic this sleepy giant, whose solid trunk is gnarled with the abuse of centuries. If I could let the wind of time and horror of burning pain pass me by? Could I so love the sun that I reach with wide open arms to celebrate the dawning of a new day? More over could I laugh at children as they attempt to climb my limbs, or read over the shoulder of some student who finds shade beneath my leaves. Metaphor after metaphor meet my poets mind I wonder about love and I wonder about time I worry about school and take a deep breath Deciding at once that there was nothing left Nothing to worry nothing to cry My emotions had run its course all in due time And as I set waiting and thinking away I realized it was past noon I had thought away the day But all this time spent in my own head I came to realize what the tree had truly said Stop worrying Stop thinking And making yourself sick Come what may The only important thing is to persist. Make living your goal, no fretting over something old.

The forms of things Are ever in flux On their margins, But once in a long while, Solid turns to liquid, And there is a small window To act, To change The boundaries, As former things pass away, And new ones come into being.

Abstracting change
...is like accounting. Is more abstracting of the brain than calculus. What's missing from it are the visualizations of what is being mentioned. Like working with a space in the mind that can only make one or two changes at a time - giving logic but not seeing the big picture. Unless the big picture is really only those one or two changes in the symbology and equalities. But these only tell relations of 1-2 changes connecting and spreading like a web.
