"adulterer" poems
...Short partings do best, though: time wears out affections, The absent love fades, a new one takes its place. With Menelaus away, Helen's disinclination for sleeping Alone led her into her guest's Warm bed at night. Were you crazy, Menelaus? Why go off leaving your wife With a stranger in the house? Do you trust doves to falcons, Full sheepfolds to mountain wolves? Here Helen's not at fault, the adulterer's blameless - He did no more than you, or any man else, Would do yourself. By providing place and occasion You precipitated the act. What else did she do But act on your clear advice? Husband gone; this stylish stranger Here on the spot; too scared to sleep alone - Oh, Helen wins my acquittal, the blame's her husband's: All she did was take advantage of a man's Human complaisance. And yet, more savage than the tawny Boar in his rage, as he tosses the maddened dogs On lightening tusks, or a lioness suckling her unweaned Cubs, or the tiny adder crushed By some careless foot, is a woman's wrath, when some rival Is caught in the bed she shares. Her feelings show On her face. Decorum's flung to the wind, a maenadic Frenzy grips her, she rushes headlong off After fire and steel... .

The Art of Love: Book Two
She described me as Tom Buchanan. She immediately said that I wasn't violent like him, but that I could easily be him... I could easily show his side. I could be brutish and abusive and dishonest and an adulterer and greedy and pretentious. I could be all of those things so easily. It's as if a switch goes off in my brain that says, ***"Hey, let's be an ******* today."*** I don't want to be. I don't want to be seen as Tom Buchanan. I don't want to be the man who hurts so many and truly loves so few. I want to be so much more than that. I don't necessarily want to be like Daisy or Jordan or Myrtle or Nick or even like Gatsby himself. I want to be like myself. I want to be the girl that I'm meant to be and I know that I am not right now nor have I been for quite some time. I just want to be the woman God made me to be and I'm tired of being such a catastrophe in the making and for ruining and hurting those around me. I don't want to be that girl. I don't want to be like Tom Buchanan. I want to be me... The real me. ...who am I?

The Great Gatsby
The Poet is the language,the mystery of Monalisa's smile, the brush of Caravaggio and the finest painting of Vangogh. The Poet is the sonnet of Mozart anf the symphony of Bach, a tragedy of Shakespeare and the saddest verse of Pablo Neruda. The Poet is the blue Danube in waltz and the Swan Lake in Ballet. The Poet is the renaissance of passion and the remnant of life, the dilemma of morality,the shadow of deed,and the ombra of sin. The Poet is the fantasy of each Sunrise and the illusion of every Sunset, the wave in tide of wishes,carried in a bottle to  dune drunk shore. The Poet is the believer, dream lover in a hot passionate crazy affair, the magician who creates fables and fairytales from a deadly reality. The Poet is the worker who works and works to survive,to cope in this demanding,sophisticated,stigmatic  concrete hypocratic world. The Poet is the thief of time,with eyes flutterin on late nights, Still loyal to the pen,His thoughts  in verse,bleedin fragranted words. The Poet is an Omnipotent servant,with a will to ask and crave to learn. A Philosopher,whose always an amateur in the pursuit of wisdom. The Poet is an eternal slave of His Muse,the beverage of inspiration, the spouse married to literature,adulterer of lyric,deceiver of prose. He Knows no lapsus in all that is scandalous,royalty or sacred. He is the artist, musician, actor,the clairvoyant  of destined paths. He is the cheap clay's mold,carved in the sculpture of the next century. The Poet is the unfinished book,the chapter in yesterday, He is the Nobody of today and the bookmark  of tomorrow.                       T  H  E        POET     IS       YOU    ! ! !

"You know, what the most annoying thing is?" Stacking box, after box, after box in her empty-floored home. "What?" "Knowing how," stack, "lost," stack, "I'll be." She drops to a box, face in hands. ******* it." What do you say To the widow of an adulterer, To the crier of sorrows you've never known? "I'm sorry." ******* it, you're sorry. Everyone's sorry." What do you say to all the bitterness of a woman stacking, stacking, stacking The boxes of her new life? I sit on the divan by the window. "What do you want me to say?" I ask. Naive. **** I don't know." Sighing. "Say you know He really loved me And that even though I'm just your pain-in-the-ass broken-hearted and stupid older sister, who's made too many mistakes to count, and who's never ever been there when you need her because she's too busy with her piece-of-shit ******* accident of a husband, you really love me too." Looking up at me with tear-swimming mascara-ringed green eyes under a black fringe of artistic bangs. "Of course I really love you." The automaton of my voice. "You're my only sister." Tears falling onto white velvet wrists. "I really miss him. That ******* If only he hadn't been the adulterer With me.

The Adulterer, The Gullible, The Fool

the Decay of Perfection
Too thrilled by the case, Sherlock just disappears, To begin with a chase, John is let alone, To get a cab, and go to Baker St. . But wait- wherever he goes, The telephone booth starts ringing! He waits for somebody to pick up, And continues to walk; The third booth starts ringing, The caller must be desperate to talk. A black, shiny car, Pulls over for John to ride, The destination seemed far, In this conversation-less hour. "Anthea", answered the accompanying secretary, When asked her name, Fake it was, Absolutely. The anxiety was over, John was confronted by a well-dressed man, Who offered him money, to spy, The guy, who deduced Watson's army background, By his tan. The "arch-enemy" of Sherlock, As he introduced himself, Told John about his psychosomatic disorder, "You are back in the game, You don't fear danger, You've missed this lifestyle." True it was, Pretty much, "Could be dangerous", wrote Sherlock, And there he was dashing into 221B. Sherlock was quite disappointed, When he got to know about the declination, Of that tempting offer, "Pity, we could've split the fee", He suggested John for the next time. Isn't Mr. Holmes quite irksome, Calling John from the other end of London, Just to send a text? No, this was not an ordinary text, An SMS was just sent, By Mr. Watson's phone, To the murderer. The murderer? But why?! Elementary for SH. Found the case within an hour, Which was now in front him. His mind, is truly above par! One thing missing from the suitcase: Her organizer, her phone. "Nah, she's is a clever woman, A serial adulterer, Would never leave her phone at hotel", This Holmes said, backed by balance of probability. They waited at a restaurant, And the wait was long, But worth it. Had to chase a taxi, which was done successfully, Thanks to Sherlock's excellent memory. Hence proved it was, The psychosomatic limb of Doctor. A drugs bust had occurred at their place, Seriously, this man, a deduction ****** would have drugs? "I'm not a psychopath Anderson, I'm a high functioning sociopath, Do your research!" Snapped Mr. Punchline. Just a couple of minutes later, This brilliant sleuth realized- "Rachel! Yes, Rachel! This woman in pink, Jennifer, Is clever, And she's dead!", much to Mr. Holmes's displeasure.

The age of men and women Taking grand heroic action Or making small significant gestures Which changed the world Are over. Enter the age of indifference Failing economics And aging alcoholics Dot the skyline Of forclosures And reposessions Where once stood Raised Fists We ignored the warnings The unemployment rate Rises faster than global warming Al Gore is an adulterer Another inconvenient truth Lining the landscape of sephulchre Failing motivation Spreads like an infectuous disease And e-mails to God go unanswered Replaced by homicidal tendency The philosophers and writers Visionaries and fighters Have all been diagnosed with Social disorder And put on lithium The public would rather watch The latest news on the off-shore drilling Moratorium Its just getting boring. The smallest voice has ceased to be listened So instead of pulling out my hair I resign to not care And stopped acting like it makes a difference.

Revolution Starts at Home (The Age of Indifference)
The parliament is dissolved they said Elections within two months they said Don’t vote for the other side they said The other side is corrupted they said The incumbent is a liar, thief and adulterer they said The other guy will pawn the country they said They said they will give us money And avail cheap food, education and medical They said they know what they’re doing They’ve been doing it for many years It’s funny how they say a lot of things Some very nasty, not fit for learned people I just hope it doesn’t rain, so i can do my rounds I just hope they buy my bread, buns and snacks When six o’clock comes!

The Bread Man
“Love: an emotion, one that, so low as to bar From fair desire—self-righteous and self-serving Excuse, a pretense, lyric, will not inspire.” I detest to hear him speak— Adulterer, why, pray tell, do you prey upon the weak? “Simple in answer, as simple in method. No heart Rich needs to beat for “that” emotion obsoletes. Adults, mature, do not even think the distinction That is kid’s table morality, what mommy Only says after a few drinks, winking, your father In his eyes—just where you have come, in fact— You needn’t think mommy and daddy stayed together After long spats, strife, and frustration for their waves Struck the same height or the moon hits mom just right. It is not the eternal enthrallment of Eros that keeps them in motion Dear, friend—it is “that” emotion. In bed, hearts Are inverted and split down the middle The negative just drowns away in chemicals. But how bad we’d feel, (no?) if that, the long and short? Machinate the “thing” justify “that” feeling Ennobling, beatifying, kindling for sonnets and odes Fashioning morality and aesthetics onto sweating Thrusting beasts, one on one in their dance of love. A harlequin of truth, my friend! When it is found In contraception, safeguarding our natural predilection. Ha! Oh, fools! Why trouble with the rituals When, really, ****** collocations concern capricious Chronologies and covetous craving for **** and **** How ****** How crude! But, oh, but oh how true; think: Admit the urge has primacy, the “L” emerges and Lies emitted: of connection, intelligence, intersubjectivity. Given its stage of farce and face, our sieves are at Ageful capacity and then needs a bargain, more; The office of “thing” goes unoccupied, its twin Will gladly keep it clean and orderly, act As it did: gentle and cordially.” Blast it! Such ways in truth and walk, for Repetition in faith of life Pegs my myths with all their strife, Strife and succor irony.

1. My name is Delilah, how may I help you? You were blinded by my grace. You always saw hints of my betrayal. My friends made it clear to you that I was a hairdresser. I cut off your hair an inch every night. You saw it coming. You did. But I'd never cut all your hair off. 2. Rule number one: Do not get attached. Do not kiss on the mouth; you'll get attached. Just because he took your innocence, doesn't mean him not wanting to marry you (, him not wanting to kiss you anymore or him not loving you,) is a good enough reason to cry. 3. He treats you like a child, yet he expects you to not be clingy, be needy or cry. He demand you not to hug another boy (not even your friends), yet complains you're too desperate for affection. 4. Prince Charming has a thing for little girls. Stop being so mature for your age. 5. Prince Eric has a thing for older women. Stop being so immature, you're not a child anymore. 6. Perfection has a girlfriend. Perfection loved you. Perfection tastes your wine and lingers on tip of your lips. Perfection caresses your ******* and whispers sonnets into your ear. Perfection goes back to his girlfriend. 7. Leave him. Leave him. Scream out "Hallelujah!" Leave him. Go back to your Lord. Leave him. You stand next to him. He looks at you as if you aren't there. Leave him. His hand touched the handles and not you. Leave him. You look at him. Leave him. You burn your bible. You stop praying. Leave him. You kiss him, and you no longer think of your Saviour. Leave him. You have a new god to worship. Leave your new god. Leave him. Leave him. Leave him. You stay. 8. Your messiah burns your heartache into your wrists as the gospels kisses the flames. Princes, perfection and new found gods are all weak in front of the All Mighty, but strong in front of your naive, delusional heart. There is no more room left for God until you leave him. But you won't leave him. 9. My name is Delilah. I am not a prophet. 10. My name is Delilah, how may I help you?

The cancer ate my sister's heart, her liver, her bones, and now I'm alone with my sick-stomached guilt and my never-told confession. Remember, we were younger. Our neighbor's sister came home with a ****** nose and you turned to me, "What would you do if that was me?" 6 year old certainty, "I'd **** them," swelling with 6 year old bravado, "I'd **** anyone who hurt you." Our mother was appalled and our father told me not to say things I didn't mean, but I meant it then. And sweetheart, I mean it now. I can't **** the cancer, because it's already killed you. I can't **** the husband, because he's already dead (left you widowed and heartbroken, my only sister, and I am to blame). And so I'm standing here, looking at the jagged-box-shaped rocks so far far far below, and I'm thinking (stacking box, after box, after box in her empty-floored apartment), and I'm wishing (to the crier of sorrows I've never known) and I'm breathing (if only he hadn't been the adulterer) and I'm jumping (with me).

stacking boxes (widow), pt. 2
I love you irrationally, without reason, And no matter how I try to cure myself of you, My eye stays drawn to the outline Of your worn face and dissonant mind, Your flaws that remind me that We are all human— I shouldn’t love you with this hemmed up heart I’ve let you destroy, then sew back so carelessly together So that every stich, every oozing Drop of messy adhesive keeping me was by you. And there is no rational reason I should still love you, and not the man who has not the heart to ever intend the slightest of sin… The pale angel who never deserved some dysfunctional adulterer , who remains drawn to the dark and hateful lust, of her favorite demon. And perhaps us sinners deserve eachother; I’ve grown to watch you live off of ***** by the bottle and your abused old guitar— And never could I pull myself together to fit my shattered edges of disarray into the blunt puzzle of their world. They decry us in the absurdity of our very existence, A drunk and a misfit, children of a lesser creation, as we stand against the bitter winds of hate.

An Absurd Dependency
You elected a crazy person For most of the offices. You applauded a dictator. And that is just what he is. You cheered for a proven liar. And failed to fact check him. You voted for a misogynist And against all of the women. You elected a bankrupter To handle all of our money. You voted for an adulterer. And seem to find that funny. You voted for a cheat and liar And ignored the facts against him. You trusted a major swindler Won’t vote him back to the pig pen. You pretended he was a businessman When his businesses mostly failed. You ignored all his crimes in office When he should have been jailed. You made your stupid excuses And stayed home instead of voting. You listened to Fox and Breitbart; Shared the crap they were quoting.

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
I breathe You in. I take a deep breath and Your presence fills me. You are beautiful. Masterful. Awesome. Worthy of praise. Holy. Your grace moves me to tears. I am so undeserving. You love me anyway. How could I ask for anything more? But You've given me so much more! Peace! Joy! Blessings uncountable! Songs to sing! Family! Friends! Forgiveness. The greatest gift of all, given freely to me. A sinner. A blasphemer. An adulterer. A liar. A lazy, prideful woman. You see through all the sin to the woman You created me to be: A mighty woman of God, with faith as unwavering as the rising Sun. You are my rock. My foundation. My Redeemer. My Lord.

BEAUTY AMONGST THE UGLY
Dancing, spinning in the dark, Catching glimpses of reality But always retreating Happily settling Into comforting ignorance Believing in daydreams Delighted in fantasies Swept up in someone else’s love Never deserving, always wanting Insatiable appetite for desire Crashing, falling we let it go Moments of desire, guilt and joy Mingle and melt like uncountable tears Hastily brushed away From an ever cheerful face Hiding the secrets, Hiding the lies My tiny escapes define me We dance together For better for worse Forever entwined your heart and mine As I smile upon your saddened face, the dance begins again.

When I see your letters Scarlett or otherwise I can’t help but think Of Hester Pryne Marked, and tarnished The same way I see you They tell me To avoid at all costs The refuse of humanity Wears these letters Not A for Adulterer Maybe ΔΡ for Date ****** ΣΔ, Excessive Drinker? I don’t know And I don’t intend on finding out.

Letters
I was never an adulterer, I did **** myself over, And ****** alone; But the "A" that keeps sticking Is as prominent as Hester's. I was never an abuser, But I can do a real fine job on myself; And then the guilt sets in, Like a hard-packed snowbank, And I need to get the shovel. That amber-coloured "A" Always leads to the stairs of shame I climb like my cross; Then lie in state Until the resurrection.

Stairs of Shame
Your will is change You give life to Your own words Just hearing them reading them on the page speaking them lifts the veil to know that there is love that is beyond measure but can be seen in sacrifice in resurrection in sharing glory with people who didn't love you You call me worthy, so I am worthy You love so gently you don't force it I want to love You I do love You keep showing me how to love I want your presence close thick and full dripping wet because it is poured over me undignified as you made Yourself I will love You Boldly as You declared love I will declare it You keep blessing beyond a heavenly seat what love that You are only a breath away! I will breathe inhale the sweet smoke of Your fire and exhale a windstorm You affect the way I think because You softened my heart I am married to this, beautiful overwhelming liberating love How could I even think of divorcing something in my blood? When the adulterer comes, trying to make me question - "What about the hard times?" The goodness is coming! "What about when you feel lonely?" I am not what I feel; love is ever present! "What about... NO! Stop lying! Nothing stops goodness! Nothing keeps me from His love! Praise God! Even when the adulterer tries to lure me away, I know where my home is found. It is a breath away. Inhale Exhale FIRE, FIRE, FIRE!!! burning love forever! my heart burns for You we are deep in this cave the molten fire builds let it burn! let it burn! You burn for every part of me You are the torch and fire the torch touches every corner of me the flames lick up igniting everything love sends up a sweet smoke holy fire burn forever burn away the past burn away the unbelief the lies the pain the heart ache the fire burns it all away and leaves nothing but love How can fire be so reassuring? It scares me, but it's good I would be a fool not to touch it it makes me better the past is ashes now floating away in the wind

True Lies
Don't Tell Me What to Do ! Just a humorous look at the ten commandments! Handed down biblical tablets, Telling us what not to do! Not sure if they apply to you! Message was I'm not to steal, Or so the bible said, Have no money left today, Will starve and end up dead, Out of sight's not out of mind, Not sure what else to do, Steal a sandwich, One or maybe two! Which I would never do! See nothing funny, Commandment two, Thou shalt not **** With this commandment, I hereby concur with you! Worship no-one human, In this our mortal world of sin, If God exists there's only one, So let his will be done! To make a graven image , Is a phoney, Misdemeanour, Wee mischief, Does that include a photograph? Maybe does, So Moses said! Depends interpretation, *** I hear you say, You took his name in vain, Not such a great thing to say, Within this Godly game! Mother, mother where's my tea, Get it now, Get it for me, Little honour left these days, Sure it's there a bit, Unfound unnoticed, It beats me! You married once, Hoped for life, What went wrong, Found someone, Another's husband, Or someone else's wife, With this statement I agree, But don't stay if unhappy, Steal not another's mate, A cheating heart, Well that ain't great! In Adulterer's Bible, sixteen hundred and thirty one, A misprint, stated errors, sated, 'Thou shalt commit adultery' A.K.A, The Wicked Bible! Thought this was really rather funny! Steal lies and nothing else, When stolen just discard them, Gossip not, Keep phantom stories to yourself, Enough muck and lies in field of life, Without them further spreading! Take nothing from your neighbours, Without their prior permission, You may not want to love them, Take them to your heart or care, We all have human needs you do declare, That one day you may need them there! Some of these are mixed together, In one almighty mess! By ladylivvi1 © 2013 ladylivvi1 (All rights reserved)

My boredom had turned to a pill Which had made my mind quite ill I picked up a bat Killed that old cat And I leaped from my window sill Oh what a sweet loving wife That picked up the kitchen knife With a flick of her hand My neck it did land Ending an adulterer's life ...And my marital strife
