"axioms" poems
Rhythm of life Nails tapping on table tops Beating of our hearts spin the world right off its axis. Momma shot a man in Reno Just to watch him die. Atlas shrugged And we all tripped as we walked The pace of our mile, off by 3.6 seconds. Trust in our stated axioms Disillusioned Americans in Paris Judged by the color of our skins and the shoes on our feet No one stops to see how blue it is up there today. Hurrying through the rain Our cities never sleep. Going down South It’s slower down here. Sunday’s best and “God Loves You” stickers when you get your oil changed. Night train whistle blows Factory steam pipes squeal Mississippi riverboats tug and chug Dictionary.com definitions let us down. Greatest disasters in history are when thing we take perfectly for granted stop working. Mad cow, mad hatter, mad world Bad boys, bad wine, bad date Ellipses, dot dot dots, dramatic pause, passing of time passing of time passing of…. …….. …………. ……………………. Time. Tw— Twi— Twitch. (tick tick tick) I believe in the abnormal And the impossible And I refuse to believe that fictional characters aren’t real Animals completely understand me When I talk to them. Baby missiles fire From all parts of the globe End of the world party Let’s go down in glorious drunkenness As the beating of our hearts Spins the world right off its axis.

This is the Way the World Ends, Not with a Whimper, but a Bang
We set out from our homes With aspirations bright A bag pack of skills And a sceptre of perfection A potion of blessings To keep company We are complete. Through the low nights And during the blazing noons, Through the hard needles of showers, Until we reach the land of flowers, We unravel Secrets of the deep and the dark We gain and yet sometimes loose We fathom Through the layers wise And make our axioms On a quiet night however, When we plunge in retrospection A star shines bright Connecting and completing the picture We are but one glowing dot from the many And the canvass completes With the treasure of family lineage All encompassing and strengthening A synecdoche of life.

Synecdoche
To ghosts which walk about our imagination, we have surrendered counsel, yielded consolation. They are the souls of the might-have-been, kindred brethren yoked to our liquid center, who've never endured the pain of intelligence, never walked the bed-of-coals of perception, yet, they have wisdom nestled on ethereal neurons.   To semaphores which count a poet's unused resources, written in the higher code of life's metaphor, iteratively substituting words to distill a truth, a single universal life experience upon which to dwell, all taken from myriad axioms of cerebral ecstasy. This is writing, confrere, and you have tasted it, as well. We are craftsmen in the medium of language, poets following the involuntary way.

Areas of knowledge answer: How do we know? Looking for the origins of our knowledge flow. From mathematics to the ethics, History to the arts, These are the ways we tell types of knowledge apart.

a latticework of axioms avoid the death instinct and remain immortal finding light in the darkest nightmare extracting the anti-venom from every pitch black crevice rejecting the perspective of Power ejecting oneself from the true void that is a purely aesthetic way of life spontaneous and spirit enhancing enchanting, fast-flowing turbulence of artistic formulations transforming barely lucid fantastical frameworks into newly virtuous neologisms flirting with the idea of creating something out of nothing without intentions to destroy it last minute decisions preserving precision keeping things afloat despite the dimly lit overflow

My heels bite the pavement, the cadence of Monday through Friday; My shoulders are stressed In spite of ergonomics. The strangers who pass me, eyes glossed with similar fatigue, beat a shuffling rhythm: the melody hypnotizes. That's why I don't notice. Walking just the same, a pace not unlike the teller or the lawyer in front of me. They speak of a repast, old haunts, new places, television and sports. Another measure, no sign of caesura. When I find myself unsure, uncertain of the cool ground beneath, of the muffled grumblings and the scrapes on my knees, it feels like a dream. “I'll wake up soon, I'm at home. I've fallen asleep to the T.V., a wacky dream bred from the same.” The breath on my neck is so hot. Once my head straightens up, the world once again standing still before me, the weight against my body multiplies. The floating sensation of sleep, The feeling of a shell within a shell, It dissipates and my insides are knots, molten lava, churning against its crust and my skin screams in tune. The grunting and the pawing, brusque lips are sinking ships. There's not enough sandpaper in the world to compare. Those heels are dust, their teeth broken and rotted; Percussion takes a rest. I am trapped inside my clothes. Twisted like a snake around my body, I want only to be free of them-- in any other situation but. “Here let me help you with that.” The words slither, covered in mold. My every wish in that single moment Answered, a betrayal; trite axioms abound. Suddenly the weight lifts, is suspended, a chance accorded to a plain old girl. But my limbs are heavy, fear looms, Justifications swarm my panicked mind. “Don't be stupid. Give them what they want; They'll leave you alone. Go to another place. Return with some piece of mind: no matter how fractured your body, you heal.” But there's a light on overhead. The unmasked man stares lustfully at my lips. His uncharted groping is fervent, fearless-- his desire to be soon bestowed upon him. Consequences do not glaze his feverish eyes, and worry lies dormant, sets off no warnings. The cage was set, the trap precisely executed and there's no spoon to help me out of here.

I believe what is true but knows not truth Instead I feel truth is what I believed Most believe what they feel, instinctively But I, without reasons, cannot believe Alas reasons found on self evidence As in what is and is not cannot be Conjectures they are if truly honest But axioms worked in all mathematics Is truth then not of reason but of faith? For does not ear test words as tongue tastes food? Surely then we do have some means to know Even so, must not faith be tested true? For faith is circular: a conviction Compelled by strength and conviction of will; A will constrained, by flesh, susceptible To unknown beings in spiritual realms But what if this being is God? And faith, Conviction of the certainty of things, Holy Spirit’s gift, marking election, Affirming justification in God. Truth by two or more witnesses is sure Do we attest the Holy Spirit true? A blasphemous thought perhaps, but prophets Led to lie to kings and shown to be false. Thus ignorant sages showed assurance Lies solely in God’s grace, mercy and love And in his faithfulness to the elect Declared in Israel again and again In my search for truth, I was led to faith, The faithfulness of God, truth’s ultimate rock His gifts unchanging, irrevocable And confirms the fear of the Lord is truth

Building Paradigm on Plot of Paradox
We are all demagogues in a world controlled by despots, A world where we have grown afraid to denude the powerful And sequester the impoverished under the sheets, A fear to stick it to the man rather stick with the man. Although it begins with one life, it ends with countless casualties. For our definition of what we believe is right, differs from what we believe is good. The foundation of good, for it is no universal language rather a universal dictum. With lessons unknown to all, simply comprehended by some. For only a handful selected by God occupy the hole the devil burned through. Leaving the delicious gift of persuasion on earth, awaiting the tasting intentions whether good or evil. Convinced by all with set beliefs while thy axioms remain unknown.

A Harsh Reality
a glance a word a gesture a little sigh a formula the neighbor’s greetings the train schedule a note on your door quite clear to understand not long ago now seem to foster strange significances the code for unequivocal interpretation no longer works ambiguity hovers in mid-air you hesitate and ponder before you speak begin to choose words carefully hoping against your knowing that this would make them clearer yet feeling that it does not really matter that whatever you say may be received quite differently from what it is meant to convey likewise what you hear and see appears to lack precision possible meanings proliferating connotations of irony, deceit, hidden aggression threaten to shroud familiar sense make you question old axioms in fearful apprehension of unperceived realities signs of a loss of self? your brain dissolving? senility approaching before its time? or just too much of that foie gras and cabernet the night before? will it be gone tomorrow with bright sunshine and blue skies or darken your remaining days under leaden clouds of doubts and insecurity? Or is all this just a reminder that you should take nothing for granted and that the only constant in life is change? * * *

*If I die Don't cry for me, play me a symphony Clear the sadness, just sing for me Don't ever feel that you're alone I'll be watching over you from my new home If I die Don't run out of speech or words Don't let your heart break into shards Don't hate the memories of us together I'll be waiting for you on the other side, forever If I die Don't dress in strength any weakness Criticize if I failed and praise my uniqueness Don't embrace an eternal sadness No,don't entertain such madness If I die Comfort all my family and friends 'Cause just like it starts life ends Enjoy every song we loved while it sings Knowing It's among those good things If I die I'll be the hymn playing during my requiem No delirium,I pray hope be your emblem If tears escape,wipe them from your eyes I'll be looking out for you from paradise If I die I'll be the ageless sun up your sky I'll be solace when you want to cry I'll be your favorite meal and cloth I'll be in your favorite Axioms of Thoth If I die I'll be the moments we lived I'll be the faith we believed I know I'll be your daily prayer I'll be there, everywhere If I die I'll be all those good books we've read But one sure thing is I'll be dead*

IF I DIE
A man in a field walks through a storm. Snowflakes on his eyelashes blur his vision. A man in a study believes in snow, believes in the truth of snow. A man leaves traces as he walks. His tracks ornament the field’s blank. He meanders, doubles back, evading, leaves imprints that the snow erases. A man walks. The snow falls. In a study, a man devotes himself to snow. He reads from the book of snow. He composes wintry axioms. “Snow: Atmospheric water vapor frozen into ice crystals that drop on a walking man’s eyelashes or lie blank in an unwritten field. “Snow is a conflict, a confusion, a yearning. Letters are desire. Margins are melancholy.” The storm disappears. A man squints at blurred words, Resumes writing, Shaking snow from the page.

Life isn’t fair, they tell me, it’s not always cut and dry. You can’t always get what you want, but that just leaves me asking why? Ignorance is bliss, supposedly, some days I wish I’d never met you. Anything is possible, they say, doesn’t that apply to us too? Money can’t buy happiness, but it can buy a plane ticket. Everything happens for a reason, well that reason can go stick it. A closed door is a window opened but what if the door was never there? They tell you to follow your heart, My heart’s with you; it’s not going anywhere.

Aphorisms, Axioms and Awry Adages
The battles are over. Blood has been shattered on all territories. The kaleidoscope reflects the broken dreams of the refugees. I do not wish to remain in this place. The complexity in the surroundings imbibes a negative vibe in my soul and corrupts my lungs. The weight of living is breaking my bones. My imaginative capabilities seem to vanish in the haze with the smoke coming out from chimneys. The heat around is bringing things to an end. We are parting ways. I'm standing at crossroads neither side will take me to a better place. The juvenile existence of a paradoxical levity brought us back again. I'm sitting in this cold room, torpid in one corner. A ray of light coming in through a hole in the wall and reflecting all the dust in me, in my thoughts. I'm trying to fathom the reason of existence if these entities and writing with a pen stolen from my masters chamber. But all I wanted to do was spill red ink all over the axioms.

Contempt this freedom, Need enslavery for security; Feel apathy, regret, hopelessness; Path of continuity - too easy, too often. Provoke temptress's scorn Mislead the misadventure Furtive undermining conscious Tripped out and over-bored Neglectfully narcissistic, never satiated. --------- I don't want to be a poet, Intellectually engaged with conceptuality; I want to be popular, Adored for simplistic, concise axioms - Connective understatements stated plainly. On second thoughts...now I realise... I don't want to be popular - I want to be an advertiser! --------- Comrade, yours is the sweetest victory: Ruled the collection, dispersed, then died. Never to know the scorn foreshadowed; Realising no fulfilment, save vengeance Of victims truncated and tortured raw; Hollowed abomination, human condemnation. --------- What am I saying? To whom? Of whom? Since when? Why now? For what? How come? Where from? [Who's who, who knows whom!?]

All the dead soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. Why can’t we see what all of them have seen? Why didn’t we notice that nobody had attacked us? We urged them to invade and **** as if it was practice. You know, war games that turned out a bit too real? How come those giving orders don’t seem to feel? Why do they keep overtaking countries overseas That did nothing more to us than perhaps displease? They angered us by having some resources we wanted. This should remind of how the ancient countries hunted And robbed, ***** and murdered in their neighbor’s lands. Why that was acceptable then, nobody really understands. Yet today, when we are supposed to be so **** intelligent We are just as bloodthirsty, but dressed a bit more elegant. We repeat the cycle, generation after mindless generation And then dare to call ourselves a democratic nation. How is that possible? Nobody ever came and asked me It it was fine to send thousands of troops overseas. Nobody asked me if it was a good thing to **** and maim Then used poisoned media to make the victims take the blame. Instead leaders and clerics stood in their pulpits and brayed That if we didn’t follow their lead, it meant we were afraid, Or, worse yet, we were the traitors and were all liable If we didn’t do what they read from old parts of the bible. It becomes “an eye for an eye”, even when we aren’t hurt. We come up with stupid axioms to treat others like dirt. We send our sons and daughters, to invade and be killed Because some rich ******** demand it on Capitol Hill. It will be this way forever more if we don’t make it stop. We, the average voter, must become the traffic cop. We must elect only leaders without blood in their eye. If we don’t this big "Godly nation" is nothing but a lie.

PROTEST!
All the dead soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. Why can’t we see what all of them have seen? Why didn’t we notice that nobody had attacked us? We urged them to invade and **** as if it was practice. You know, war games that turned out a bit too real? How come those giving orders don’t seem to feel? Why do they keep overtaking countries overseas That did nothing more to us than perhaps displease? They angered us by having some resources we wanted. This should remind of how the ancient countries hunted And robbed, ***** and murdered in their neighbor’s lands. Why that was acceptable then, nobody really understands. Yet today, when we are supposed to be so **** intelligent We are just as bloodthirsty, but dressed a bit more elegant. We repeat the cycle, generation after mindless generation And then dare to call ourselves a democratic nation. How is that possible? Nobody ever came and asked me It it was fine to send thousands of troops overseas. Nobody asked me if it was a good thing to **** and maim Then used poisoned media to make the victims take the blame.

i left the spigot dripping last night and now the whole home is submerged — archipelagic scraps of tatterdemalion things line the floor like dead bodies and poesy atrocities. but i have not in mind, this disfiguring lament. 1 Take for example, a fine line darting towards your ******* 2 And bend it towards the direction of genealogy or analogue fire 3 Henceforth commend contention and differentiate beyond hapless extensions of body to body mirror to mirror 4 Where all axioms define the universe and there is an epistemic afterthought looming past the arithmetic of things such is that of a steady punctuation mid-birth 5 Take the corporeal and eat Suns, thrash the Moon like how a bed is meant to be whacked by the spanked edge 6 Cold resuscitates flame and flares congeal all frigidity — or at least arbitrarily, remember it by whim caprice and then fade out 7 As misery clots in the same vein pulsing with different blood which we shall ensconce with laughter — a drunken hilarity 8 And then oppose the dictum that forced us to the point of recalcitrance, rousing hungered heat with memory of waking ice 9 Recount what I said about such opposites complementing each other in precise farce 10 In this exact exhibition faint upon recollections — going far inverse to poles only tells another distance covered by wide strides and a place nearly forgotten rekindled by newer ones.

Numerals
"I was once alive!' a dead man cries at the heavens; raising fist with impatient gestures. The clutching of the fingers, the breaking of the bones. The heavens open up to the evil we do. Bloodshed from wars, bloodshed from illnesses. The Blood of Christ given and yet disregarded "I know only living!", the solitary man demands. But the circle of life has been drawn. The fate of certainty proclaimed and published. Alleluias and amens flock like napkins folded into place. Winds scour the sky for axioms as weeping Mary floats her prayers through vibrant songs of heavenly protection Be still hurting flesh. The pain shall pass, the misery will vanish. "I once was alive!" he moans as his skin explodes in tumours. Victim to stigmata dreams and a hearse travelling in purposeful direction.
