"augur" poems
Dry winds of monsoon rainless Caress my little hair idly Fire crackers acrid painless Waft up quite widely The elements treat me fine Yes, they are all democratic Often verging on divine Tho’ folks call em lunatic Bother not, friends Folks are easily dumb That’s how it ends - Tom, **** and a thumb Tho’ nothing might augur well Keep being until groundswell

BUILDUP
Let the bird of loudest lay On the sole Arabian tree, Herald sad and trumpet be, To whose sound chaste wings obey. But thou shrieking harbinger, Foul precurrer of the fiend, Augur of the fever’s end, To this troop come thou not near. From this session interdict Every fowl of tyrant wing Save the eagle, feather’d king: Keep the obsequy so strict. Let the priest in surplice white That defunctive music can, Be the death-divining swan, Lest the requiem lack his right. And thou, treble-dated crow, That thy sable gender mak’st With the breath thou giv’st and tak’st, ‘Mongst our mourners shalt thou go. Here the anthem doth commence:— Love and constancy is dead; Phoenix and the turtle fled In a mutual flame from hence. So they loved, as love in twain Had the essence but in one; Two distincts, division none; Number there in love was slain. Hearts remote, yet not asunder; Distance, and no space was seen ‘Twixt the turtle and his queen: But in them it were a wonder. So between them love did shine, That the turtle saw his right Flaming in the phoenix’ sight; Either was the other’s mine. Property was thus appall’d, That the self was not the same; Single nature’s double name Neither two nor one was call’d. Reason, in itself confounded, Saw division grow together; To themselves yet either neither; Simple were so well compounded, That it cried, ‘How true a twain Seemeth this concordant one! Love hath reason, reason none If what parts can so remain.’ Whereupon it made this threne To the phoenix and the dove, Co-supremes and stars of love, As chorus to their tragic scene. THRENOS Beauty, truth, and rarity, Grace in all simplicity, Here enclosed in cinders lie. Death is now the phoenix’ nest; And the turtle’s loyal breast To eternity doth rest, Leaving no posterity: ’Twas not their infirmity, It was married chastity. Truth may seem, but cannot be; Beauty brag, but ’tis not she; Truth and beauty buried be. To this urn let those repair That are either true or fair; For these dead birds sigh a prayer.

The Phoenix And The Turtle

Post-azure, cloud splashed sky, washes with the suns descent, breaking into melodies of sunset. Fracturing into a blush, the richness of the spectrum makes itself known. On a tangent of change, amorphous clouds bleed amber glow and bittersweet combinations of reds and yellows. Vermillion streaks through, and a few cloud folk turn titian, like sumptuous surreal apricots rotting in the sky, that seem to augur encroaching darkness. Billows on the horizon leak crimson, like spilled wine on table cloth, and pucker out like blooms of flaming roses. Fire refracted coloured cousins of the sun are dancing all about. Here is the anthem of wild transformation. Here is cause for quiet celebration. Here at this fluent juncture. Here at the closing of day. The whole of the ocean below, is the skies tremendous mirror. It's reflection is variegated, into variations a thousandfold. Multitudinous, and ever differentiated, distortions of above ride the crests of waves. Each apex is a new story. Each new story, just as soon as it is told, comes crashing into trough. Each finale is the ****** of beginning. The dynamic roar of the oceans ever-changing topology is rife with meaning. Colossal symphonic wonders, the primordial song, releasing upon: the uni- verse continual, sending the manifest to move, with the give and strain of immaculate design. Here ensconced between the safety of light and the mystery of night. Here at the oceans edge. Above, shades of catalina-blue, in conversation with the outer most cosmic-black dismiss earlier brighter hues. Tinged by the infinite nature of space, the jeweled dome darkens. Overhead, the first stars appear, sky transparent to beheld blackness. Luxuriant, pulling horizon, attracts violet into it's unfolding theatrics. Bloodied clouds turn purplish, then black, a darkening rawness allures, decaying with vivid beauty, tragedies of a rouged romance drug down into shadows play, searingly alive, extraordinarily actual. And then, the hush of dusk. Darkness is felled, like silence. Scintillating stars strengthen in the nights surrounding abyss; giving radiance definition. Dynamic Beauty Lives In Transition, Oppositions Compliment.

Who said sound is a vibration that travels at a bizarre speed? I saw it softly floating ensconced in bubbles to a celestial gravity that pulls them up to the realm of idyllic bliss. Bubbles exude the brilliant hues of my yearnings, wrap me inside their merino fleece warmth, hold me to their ***** with the tenderness I ever cherish in my soul. Sound nestles in its heart a mesmeric glow of music ordained to play the salute note to augur the birth of a new hankering. The woeful flute of the gypsy maiden soulfully sings a melancholy melody for her lost love to get a phoenix’s wings under the silver mist of the new moon’s splendour.

Bubbles of sound that augur a new life
Out of the night forth flamed a star -mine own! Now seventy light-years nearer as I urge Constant my heart through the abyss unknown, Its glory my sole guide while space surge About me. Seventy light-years! As I near That gate of light that men call death, its cold Pale gleam begins to pulse, a throbbing sphere, Systole and diastole of eager gold, New life immortal, warmth of passion bleed Till night's black velvet burn to crimson. Hark! It is thy voice, Thy word, the secret seed Of rapture that admonishes the dark. Swift! By necessity most righteous drawn, Hermes, authentic augur of the dawn!

Salacious mesmerism's endemic impromptu
methinks thou confuseth thy heart's impatient beating with the tremulous and sonorous summation of the immeasurable wail of clocks ticking, begging, listen! these wondrous matches glorious arranged in heaven, where weighty watches and yellowed human calendars long ago dismissed, irrelevant, discarded. marked full well, they did upon thy heart, when as babe you drew first breath. when thou will receive love's bounty, nothing more and nothing less. heavenly their watchfulness eternal, impatience does not grant favour to love long lasting, ever true, even if struck anew with first impatient glance, for much thought and endeavor, masterfully planned, thy turn scheduled, recorded, awaiting only for inevitable discovery. for though the streams of spring rush full fleshed, swollen forward, thy truest love is best read in the gentle constance of a gentle lake's modest waves lapping, like a beloved's best ring finger stroking thy cheek in one continuous caressing. need not thou lament, nor groan with impatient travail, fare thee well, for the sails, the course inexorable, the destination prescribed, foretold and heralded upon the flags of thy eyes, the banner of thy words, that rest prepared upon thy fullest and hungry lips. chance is but a secondary miscreant, whose role is but as narrator. let's him speak infrequent, but when comes his time to conduct his sale, well behooves you to listen to that littlest of voices you so oft disregard, victim of your willful fears! the time, the play, the locale all matched and set, now we await only your demonstration and forbearance to honest augur the greatest courage to speak the hardest phrase e're spoke: I love thee more than myself. for whence can only be, when thou breakbeat the chains accursedly nominated as Me First. shout the key out loud In the hour, nay, the instance, thy first believe, then long life and long love can then and only then commence.

Augur well, on a left ward spirral. I never meant to ignore the residential Wren or lazy Cat, who always knew better than my list of dreams. In the alleyway with dahlias, I wanted to think as my own, a perchance a symbol! now there's sacks of pebble stone and sand, no rub of green builders mucking in for someone's joy to settle, side gate entrance into a little abode no longer possibly mine.

At The Feet Of The Head
A good place to start would be an introspective analysis of self, but what of the ramifications of objectified manifest? If evil is incarnate then what is the nature of corporeally preternatural? Can we save each other from the truisms of self we all embody, or do we all wallow in the pandemic phatic of our own fatidic as we seek augur's tout. My imagination tells me I can create a personification that has mystical properties but can this be functional garb or is it basically illusion. Can we touch each other, or even ourselves with these extrapolations? So many of us live by this platonic proxy photic aimed humanitarian instinct, maybe the reason we don't seem to succeed is because we need to be bad to be good. Further some of us are so bad that we obviously don't deserve to live but are those of us so inclined doomed to die of the ramifications thereof? And will this malady be a contagious virulence for all? Were it not for the astonishingly astounding and incredible nature of life itself I would almost be forced to abjure the nature of metaphysics on a corporeal level. Fortunately for me the answer is much more simple, I need someone to make love to, or **** if you will. I believe in retrospect this is obviously clear! Forgive my blither.

Metaphysical Mystique
Tell me or show me once I will not forget because I’m no dunce. Saw you show me the day before What I witnessed would have dropped you to the floor. Heard it had to be done on another I wanted to ask my mentor something but he somehow read my mind, Before the question, could come aloud. Grab the gloves, and just relax, those were the facts. You saw what I did now it’s your turn. I found the target with my eyes and then with my hands   And yes, you felt like you had a case of freezer burn. Scalpel in my right, your ticker in my left Like an augur in the ice I sliced you a hole Fingers then went fishing like having a pole. Wanting a trophy that is my next goal. Lowering the hooks into you now I poked and then pulled your skin apart. Found what I was searching for Snagged it on a line I got it somehow. Pulled it up and then out the hole, Like in a action packed movie, I picked the red wire to snip first, Closed my eyes and thank GOD there was no burst. All day it seemed I was on the prowl. Now that the day is over, I can wipe my sweat with a paper towel. (CARSr 2012)

Salacious mesmerism's endemic impromptu (reworked)
Sailing the mystic omnipresent seas, on a craft made of dragonfly's wings. Tacking across the magical breeze, caused by songs that the sirens sing. Weathered and worn by infinite tides, holding lines made of eternal foible. The warrior's blade like a rudder she rides, in a sheath made of filigreed sable. Virulent flow of futurity's pandemic, vibrant waters fertile subtle surreal. Ephemeral beings translucent endemic, purveys omnipresent augur's appeal. The starlit sky imbues waterfall's mist,   myriad creatures seek eternity's mantra. Vivid delineations of artistry's gist, seeking virile omnipotent yantra. Celestial heights where eagles traverse, soaring and gliding we learn to fly. Must life be terminal we say of terse, whilst composing music to make angels sigh.

I'm wearied of wearying love, my friend, Of worry and strain and doubt; Before we begin, let us view the end, And maybe I'll do without. There's never the pang that was worth the tear, And toss in the night I won't-- So either you do or you don't, my dear, Either you do or you don't! The table is ready, so lay your cards And if they should augur pain, I'll tender you ever my kind regards And run for the fastest train. I haven't the will to be spent and sad; My heart's to be gay and true-- Then either you don't or you do, my lad, Either you don't or you do!

Ultimatum
I feel as if I’ve dreamt for years but I’ve hardly slept a wink. A tired heart while childhood fears Come back to haunt me as my lonely eyes have managed just to blink. An insensual aroma awakening my hope, Long since hiding in the hibernating slumbers of my mind, Escaping from the fear my every memory will evoke, As the lover deep within me seeks to evade the world that me they hope it will not find. I cling closer to my every breath, Growing heavier with the passing days, As an augur gust of pain with the crushing sound of death, Leaves me abandoned in the loneliest depths of my trepidation’s crashing waves.   Has all the beauty this time has brought me, Been left away so many miles, And I am wondering if it will ever see so clearly, That this distance our true love it will beguile.

I step outside just in time, Father for the leaf to fall from the tree and the air is much too nipping, and biting, and apple-pie for me to hide from it please, tell me a story, all about it about how the world ends and Your foot goes a "stomp!" over on the olive mount and no more doors ever close like sesame sesame sesame ses— I go along with things just as if they are meant to be and when autumn's chill catches I hope to have You sewn onto my sleeve not that I'd ask You to shrink for me though I know that You would dare to do so, and have and prob'ly will again and I can walk the earth like You with intention in my feet and it will be so meant to be when the sun is just an augur I hope to be sewn onto Your sleeve and I can drop and fall like an autumn leaf, and spring up again in the next wind You breathe You bend down to hear a calm in the torrential, praying me a good prayer unproved to me yet, but I know it it's inclemence and drafty doors and hot cinnamon in apple-pie

In the palm of your hand an augur collects dew, Closer to molten rock then lava, Like skin on glue. Jeremiad tongues connect with one kiss Of the first lover of his kind Never to be missed. Amongst skipping stones and a de facto home, Books stack high between beds made of bone. Excavating a rib cage only to find a heart, hard Stripping each symbol of protection On a door fire charred. Your eyes choked love Words tore veins slow Burning the worst fire I'll ever know.

Transcendence (re-post)
A little sigh, Departure From this world To astral planes, The cutting winds stop their assault And lift tenderly A rolling breath. Among the stars, it disappeared Though long before I beat it there. From still feet, pocketed hands The vivid rye enwraps my palms Whilst I, lax feet, Walk to fields Of the midnight flowers. Since the sun went to its rest Their cosmic petals unfurled I reached up And pinched the seeds in my right hand And flung them across the world. But I could not stay, For fear of dark Nor force myself to leave The upright shadows that walked at noon Though soon gone, pushed me away. Caught ‘tween sun and night, two worse off half-lights Frightened to go, Reluctant to stay. There I sway, I take their dower Through this precious selenian hour In the forest And over knells To those fields Of midnight flowers. Their tiny halos of a velvet white Augur what comes: a wanting night. And yet their whispers, Of dimmed succor Show me in the yawning fields What I came to them for: To bathe in the pallor That falls everywhere And clasp my shadow’s hand To run through fields Past the morning hours To lose my breath And pluck the petals From every single midnight flower.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beneath Autumn's amber canopy, crimson leaves descend, Breeze hums soft, winds rustle, golden branches fend. Fields wear coats of copper, the skies a mellow blue, Earth rests ever peaceful, wrapped in dreamy prismatic view. But wait! Whispers in the woodlands augur, of winter drawing near, Streams grow silent and slower, the days are crisp and clear. Autumn weaves her fading robe, down the vale and up the hill, Trees now bare and blown alone, brace for the northern crispy chill. She reigns bold with crystal breath, She adorns the silver mistal frost, Locked in the slumber of icy warmth, world's mesmerized n bitten frost. Yet there's beauty in Winter's bite, X'mas stars so sharp and bright, The glaring moon does outshine, longest of all those lustrous nights. Whispers stir the uncanny earth, Snow thaws timid and un-certain, Tender shaven heads of buds uncurl, tranquil signs of birth unwhirl. The air gets sweet with secret songs, Streams anew in lyrical reprise, This stoic winter though lingering still, paves the way for spring's encore. And aloha! Spring blossoms bright and gay, Skies sing choirs of purple nights, and vibrant radiant days. Draped in spectrum hues, the air is filled with laughter cues, Joy spills out from sprightly souls, life renews her tillowed-faery soles. And there! Summer sun ascends in blaze n might, Skies stretch far in endless blue, Fields decked-up in emerald green, flowers enticing n kissed by dew. Warmth that hums in every breeze, rollicks lush in flare and plume, Golden rays embrace earth enchanted, Joy looms large in glints n glows.

Simmerings of Nature's Symphony

Fields wear coats of copper, the skies a mellow blue, Earth rests ever peaceful, wrapped in dreamy prismatic view. But wait! Whispers in the woodlands augur, of winter drawing near, Streams grow silent and slower, the days are crisp and clear. Autumn weaves her fading robe, down the vale and up the hill, Trees now bare and blown alone, brace for the northern crispy chill. She reigns bold with crystal breath, She adorns the silver mistal frost, Locked in the slumber of icy warmth, world's mesmerized n bitten frost.
