"boisterously" poems
Love hard, my friends. Love noticeably. Love does not deserve to be shoved under the rug, to be disguised, or to be quieted. Love does not mean conforming to the idea that genuine affection is “sappy,” “cheesy,” or “cringeworthy”; instead-- love loudly. The world wants to tell you that relationships are to be silenced. That posting multiple photographs of each other is tacky, uncomfortable, and something to make fun of. That devoting time with your favorite human being is disgusting, overbearing-- especially when you are young and the future does not exist in your hands. Too bad, future. And how unfortunate, world. Because at the end of the day, the world does not own love. You do. It is yours to have, to keep, to share, and to do whatever it takes to hold onto it. It is mine. When you find love, shout it from the rooftops and frame a million photographs. Post selfies of the two of you smiling wide and unwavering. Wear its colors on your face and shamelessly declare it to the whole universe and beyond: You are in love. You are alive. And likewise, this is my philosophy: Love intentionally, fiercely, tirelessly. Love so hard it makes people dizzy. Take it as a compliment. In an exhausted world that spins with violence, hatred, and monstrosity-- praise its joys. Snap those pictures.Tell your friends. Scrapbook it, publish it, make art out of it. Laugh about it, display it, live it. Put an end to the grotesque concept that something so beautiful, perhaps life’s most magnificent, should be sheltered. Let it grow. This is a declaration. I am boisterously in love. There is no quiet here. One day, you will find someone or something that your heart will never be able to shut up about. And that’s okay. Let it scream.

Can someone tell the folks upstairs That their floor is my ceiling. They stomp about, Scream and shout. In a fleet, They drag their feet. They tap dance in their hall, And cause my crockery to fall. While they boisterously shake, I'm forced to stay awake. They slam their doors, and I settle scores, By returning a 'thud', Which goes unheard. And finally when they clamber to bed, I thank my stars and think in my head, Those noisy wrecks, Are a pain in our necks, I would have loved them more, Had they lived on another floor.

The people upstairs
It takes little more than a kind word To carry me through a month To hold me up against battle To force me, against trials, to triumph. It takes little more than genuine praise To burn a soul to memory To lose all sense of proper speech To fly unbound and freely. And with a word comes a smile I can't get it off my face With a word comes gratitude So potent my hands shake. With a word comes a flattered feeling That blossoms just under my ribs With a word comes a jittery, happy panic On which I cannot put a lid. I laugh boisterously I forget my usual frown With a word I am lifted And I will never come back down.

Flattered and Flustered
A perturbed philosoper perches precariously atop a pedestal, preaching in poetic prose of the pernicious pitfalls of man's avowal to avarice; as a braindead banker bellows "BUY BONDS!" and boasts boisterously of his brand new Bugatti.

Alliteration #2
My wounds bleed war paint and there’s an air of mischief on your tongue. When chaos propels itself on our sweet plans we are reminded of our wavering energy to hiss past the unexpected. An appetite for freedom can’t sustain starving artists. I often imagine life as a black and white silent film. Those rust-tinted spectacles stay concrete on the bridge of my nose, Dancing giraffe-men on stilts boisterously taunt the congressman on his crackberry, ask him what he’s livin’ for. Give me your half-drawn dreams to hide in, give me your blood. Because mosquitoes never tire of kicking you when you’re at your lowest. Give me your childhood ambitions and carefree summer nights, and you’ve got guts, kid, you’ve got guts, to careen over rooftops in search of a paradise. Sway in narrow alleyways in the major cities and feel the warmth of life occurring.

Mischievous Guts
Stay, season of calm love and soulful snows! There is a subtle sweetness in the sun, The ripples on the stream's breast gaily run, The wind more boisterously by me blows, And each succeeding day now longer grows. The birds a gladder music have begun, The squirrel, full of mischief and of fun, From maples' topmost branch the brown twig throws. I read these pregnant signs, know what they mean: I know that thou art making ready to go. Oh stay! I fled a land where fields are green Always, and palms wave gently to and fro, And winds are balmy, blue brooks ever sheen, To ease my heart of its impassioned woe.

To Winter
Standing, soaked, out in a storm, gusts of wind whipping my hair around wildly Unruly strands sway with the song of chaos, pulling at my scalp, snapping, lashing at my face My existence is all reality as this whirlwind tempest frantically thrashes about my flesh In the complex puzzles and foolish games, a simple madness lives, and therein lies my freedom My tongue and lips sometimes flap boisterously from their spot on my face And the noises risen up from my throat, and passed through my mouth are meaningless blubberings Involuntarily, I grin, tasting the nonsense's unique sweetness, and I swallow My laughter rings out, a vociferous and untameable sound; humor, the voice of a crazy woman And I spin! Oh, I spin and spin and spin, savagely, in ellipses, ovals, and circle shapes I've no shame, and this dance is all mine, so I maniacally fling my arms through the air And as my body makes its revolutions, a fierce smile curves the shape of my lips, wrinkles the corners of my eyes Inside my mind, wandering - wondering if there's any real difference between elated insanity and that which I crave... Some people might use words such as eccentric, strange, whimsical, and peculiar for what they cannot understand So very often I hear these such words being used from those who speak of me But it is them whom I perceive as being rather off, so habitual and boring, living like routine enslaved, joyless zombies So unfathomable to me, why most everyone seems to desire nothing beyond a passionless, hollow schedule to, every day, just repeat Me... I'll race barefoot down a gravel path, through lightning, thunder, and rain, only to feel my hair being twisted and tangled up in the wind I'll jabber absurdities, laugh like a loon, all while I spin contentedly around and around, until, stupidly dizzy, I crash and fall Madness pays little mind, stands without worries or concerns, because it believes - it knows, most nothing matters This is my freedom, freedom that cannot be shared, for what it is, is something that's only freeing for me...                ~A.

I've talked about things before that people consider to be dark I've never thought of them that way I guess I would consider them gray before any other color though but when I think about beautiful hues, I remember heather and when I see clouds in the sky and I scrunch up my face real small while the rain flies I think it's beautiful weather. So while everybody puts on their protection: raincoats and galoshes umbrellas that sheild washes I'll put on a cardigan and get covered in shivers and I'll lay in the middle of the road and pretend I'm floating in rivers Goosebumps will be my second layer They'll make my skin thicker and the rain will wash the tears off of my face and nobody will be able to tell that I was crying in the first place and I'll laugh all boisterously and hardiness will fill my diaphragm and I'll scream for no reason at all I'll scream that I would rather love that I hate how I am than to hate that I love how I am I will look at everyone around me staring at me arms folded and crunched hidden under their plastic cape afraid of being cold okay with being weak and reliant on umbrellas for protection; shadowing faces that are disgruntled and meek I'll realize they have no idea how it feels to grow thick skin of goose pimples and to have agony washed away and to float in rivers in the road and to be the only thing in a world of complexity that is lowly and simple They probably think that they know how it feels to laugh because they do it at parties and gatherings But those are only chuckles Because they never release their knuckles They're always clenching them in restraint or force Everybody should laugh in the rain and not be afraid of tears in the eyes of the sun because they'll only get washed away nobody will know I promise.

Was driving To shivaraathri manappuram [1] With idichakkas [2] To meet you One day. Enroute To a vow made one life The two chakka dumpkins Their smug demeanor Drove me to chuckles. Like guys On a global tour They Waved buddies bubye Babbled on To the jackfruit trees On the boulevard Singing “salaama salaama…” The jackfruit rap Boisterously. I was beside myself With laughter. The exertion Exhausted my cheeks I stopped near a shop For a cigarette Saw there, Two packets Of fried chakka chips Among other snacks. My chakka dumpkins For you Overwhelmed them They broke into tears They recalled Their haughty ride In a car once Singing salama A festering past That throbbed with The agony Of getting torn to shreds Of getting fried crisp In boiling oil. The chakka dumpkins Were dumbstruck They stopped singing And began to cry Looking upon their sisters Sister, you have forgotten me! An utterance from Khasak Muffled the scene. Sad at their plight I held them close My chakka dumpkins For you Forget it honey Forget it dear I patted them Trying to stop their tears. The chakka fries And my darlings Continued weeping And wailing. I smoked a cigarette Went to them And whispered in their ears That I am consigning them To you. They laughed innocently Showing their gums They bid adieu to The sisters Promising They would meet next life I felt like Laughing And crying. Laughing And crying I sang Salama, salama Salama….

Letters To Violet / 22 /
To reiterate, Words filling contagious information into the keener ears of degenerate people While elsewhere, leaving scars deep enough to catch rain water that can’t be drunk to soothe the uneasiness A girl was ***** the day before GANGED - the headlines boisterously boasted my fine countrymen on their best behavior I thought It’s not a mystery how lightly they take to such things here the average *** smoker rots for 10 years while the ****** gets 4 before he walks Capital justice grass involves more money who’s gonna pay to **** someone? degenerates waiting on call Asking for the unreasonable while selling me a thought sugar coated and studded with half truths to turn with the big wheel and stare atrocity in the eye, eyes closed Able bodied souls handicap themselves to perpetuate the cycle of corruption the wondrous mechanics of our modern world can’t put a price on dignity so we boycott what doesn’t benefit us Is that our reality or just something I read?

Something I read
I'm beautiful. I'm beautiful because I said I am. I'm beautiful because my eyes crinkle when I throw my head back and laugh boisterously at a stupid joke I made myself. I'm beautiful when I smile lazily and my double chin peeks through the polaroid that effortlessly captures my features. I'm beautiful because, after many years of being told I don't fit into the spectrum of socially accepted beauty, I laughed and told them to **** off. I'm beautiful because all the years of self-loathing and self-doubt erased the moment I said I'm beautiful. I'm beautiful and there isn't a soul alive who can convince me otherwise.

The wind careers across the years Gathering leaves and dust, Sweeping lives before it In cartwheels of redness and rust. Epiphanous moments of magnitude Through special occasions employ The will o the wisp of everyday stuff From sadness to anger to joy. The billowing tumble of living Through vaulting halls of trees In the dappled light of sunshine And green corridors of breeze. The exquisiteness of living When senses soar in the air When the colours of being are rampant And we savour each moment with care. For the living time goes quickly It flares and fades with speed, ‘Tis best enjoyed boisterously With passion, love and need; ‘Tis best when tasted piquantly Like a claret on the tongue When you cloak the days with good things And you hope your dreams die young.

The Winds of Life
. *If I call to you, above the crashing waves boisterously gathering on a rocky coastline, like a trumpet in the mist cutting through the fog signaling a safe passage to my heart, do you hear me? If I send out echoes of promises made and lifeline affections, floating as a buoy, a vessel of desire reaching for you on these stormy seas, can you hear me? If I am left stranded, marooned in the silence of my tears alone, without you on a desolate island where seashells have no names and tides retreat from the sorrow of my broken heart, pleading for you, will you hear me, please?*

Stormy seas
The rage I feel At the loss of one so fine! So young, so lovely, so calm, so together...so KIM! I rage at the turbulent waters that stole her promise. I rage at the annals of chance which paved the way to her end. I rage for the agony I see on the face of her father, her lover, friends and work mates. I rage for the tears and heartbreak of my darling wife who loved this girl as a sister, since her days of skinny childhood. I rage for the missed moments of tomorrow’s laughter which will now, never be... and the vacuum of fun in her words of dry humour, which will now, never be uttered. I share this rage with ALL OF YOU!...because the death of this beautiful young girl IS JUST NOT RIGHT! But I DO CELEBRATE the GIFT of the PLEASURE experienced in sharing her vibrant, living years. There is, however, a wonderment here amidst the tragedy... Because Kim voluntarily bequeathed the gift of hope to unknown others. She gave three unknown people her organs, her heart, her kidneys, her cornea. SHE GAVE THEM THE PROMISE OF A TOMORROW! Her beautiful heart lives on in the soul of another...and for this I give thanks.

the pain of having to let you go your way after such loving days pulls my face    into a joyous smile makes me speak    words of reassurance    crack jokes    ostentatiously enjoy       a Manhattan at lunch time    and boisterously hug you       au revoir anything    to overcome       unshed tears       the hardening lump in my chest       the tightening knot in my stomach       the cold fist that grips my neck       tightens my throat       makes my eyes dry       with the knowledge          you will not be          by my side          for weeks * * *

parting
Now all I want you to do, is read these words carefully, Real slow, not boisterously, cos there is a reason why I write all this. What other option do I have really than being silent, as my hope now walks on the bed of sweltering embers. You always try to fool me with your words....          They are really short and sweet,      But now……now I know what they actually mean.        I am lost in the maze of walls around your mind, trying to figure a way inside, I am really confused, there is no escape, there is no way outside. Let me tell you one thing,  that I am not going to cry, ‘Cos I know that someday everything will be alright. Brighter than thousand suns is your smile,          But when the cold reality dawns upon me, that its not for me.... Deep inside it’s like a needle piercing my heart,        It gets torn apart...........                        I don’t know whether all this makes sense to u or not, All I ever  wanted was you to be mine………    But why cant you hear the perpetual cry of my rusted heart? Why don’t you see that my words are genuine? Can’t u see the sincerity in what I say?  Why don’t you believe in me? You always take my breath away.............                        Should I be euphoric, as I know you              Or should I cry that you don’t know me.             Look what you have done...... look what I have become Will there be no end to this suffocation? My head explodes with the hundred questions that I want to ask For hours and hours I waited for you near that road till dusk, I wasn’t pretending that I had gone astray. Now……I will die convincing that I don’t care,        I can fool others, but what about myself?            Surely this is not going to be easy,                    Because my world twirls when I have to accept this reality. Tell me what should be done to assure you that I will be always there for you Tell me is there a way I can know you more than I already do. Now you really ought to believe me,          I want you to have the time of your life, I want you to smile. If you ever see what I intend you to see,    I will be always there for you at the end of those roads. That’s all I wanted to say, as of now.....       Now......... I am getting out of my words

you got this rattle in your chest like the timing belt in your heart's been limping towards death since birth it always hurt to listen to so here      here's the message at the bottom of the bottle      you spend so many nights studying as if perhaps           you might actually remember what it read when the sun assaults your head come morning here's what you been begging every fair-haired eve to whimper as you slip her a dose of your hand-crafted love-sludge on her boyfriend's couch this is the truth i learned about you seven years ago while you spilled your guts on my favorite boots      you really were cute all campfire-light and anguish as you visably contemplated introducing your hand to my chest you're different not just from me      but from everyone you meet in every pub on any street and for some reason      you seem to think that means that they don't see you           they see you you're scared      not of dissappointing onlookers but of disappointing yourself in some manner you can't help so you help yourself to whatever opportunity you can find      to exhibit boisterously the ******* you think they see you as           you're too smart to be so stupid and you're hurt i get it      i've heard your monsters howling through your head      everytime you ever used my bed to rest it but that's not an excuse to pull the dumb **** that you do that's not a reason to abandon whatever sense of self-worth you once grasped oh      handsome boy           the wounds of your past are not handicaps      no pain catalysts enlightenment and i meant to tell you that night      'long the river in the fire light that you're going to be alright           that you'll survive so long as you give up the act that you're the only one who's ever felt like that hurt just proves you've still got feeling

you got this rattle in your chest like the timing belt in your heart's been limping towards death since birth it always hurt to listen to so here      here's the message at the bottom of the bottle      you spend so many nights studying as if perhaps           you might actually remember what it read when the sun assaults your head come morning here's what you been begging every fair-haired eve to whimper as you slip her a dose of your hand-crafted love-sludge on her boyfriend's couch this is the truth i learned about you seven years ago while you spilled your guts on my favorite boots      you really were cute all campfire-light and anguish as you visably contemplated introducing your hand to my chest you're different not just from me      but from everyone you meet in every pub on any street and for some reason      you seem to think that means that they don't see you           they see you you're scared      not of dissappointing onlookers but of disappointing yourself in some manner you can't help so you help yourself to whatever opportunity you can find      to exhibit boisterously the ******* you think they see you as           you're too smart to be so stupid and you're hurt i get it      i've heard your monsters howling through your head      everytime you ever used my bed to rest it but that's not an excuse to pull the dumb **** that you do that's not a reason to abandon whatever sense of self-worth you once grasped oh      handsome boy           the wounds of your past are not handicaps      no pain catalysts enlightenment and i meant to tell you that night      'long the river in the fire light that you're going to be alright           that you'll survive so long as you give up the act that you're the only one who's ever felt like that hurt just proves you've still got feeling

Smoke clouds smoulder the putrid sky, capricious crowds rush hastily by. Bricks and mortar for maculate miles, the hustle and bustle; backwards smiles. Eyes tamed vacant, tapered down; a tracksuit warrior, wearing the town. The city exhales, erupting with life; it’s very beauty: boisterously wild.

Dear Ryan (III)
I am lonely, as I so often seem to be My mind flips over and under endlessly. I think myself to heights then fling my body down I scream and complain without my mouth making a sound. Pridefully -endlessly prideful, as I am- I keep to myself Because loneliness will never drive me to beg for another's help. I'd rather stare outwards infinitely, fingers perched and ready to type And wonder what part of the internet used to bring entertainment to life. Self-sufficient in the way I always claimed to be, I whisper lonely into my hands Then run for the door like it's a bug I must release, watching nervously at where it lands. I dance with myself, giggle and smile, then peel of my face to observe Because it isn't allowed to show what I can only disclose within written words. An army of people who will never exist muddle through life inside my head We speak and we smile and I am pitiful enough that it makes the emptiness less. And less is livable, less is doable with stiff posture, a smile, and laughs Less is easier, more simple, more viable to tote away than Too Much's trash. If I straighten my back, smile with teeth, and laugh boisterously If I open my arms and wait for company, who will I meet? If I looked at every person as a new opportunity and not a danger to me I wonder if I'd make enough friends to calm this feeling for a century? Questions contain a vulnerability that has never once failed to disgust me. Yet and still, I write them down because questions are the door to possibility. And somehow, whether answered or unanswered these questions may be I will walk away from the result into a crowd of people I will not greet. I will be lonely.

ninety hours and I still can't sleep can't close my eyes, no not a wink melatonin still does not seep into my brain. I'm on the edge, the brink of plummeting fully into this wretched insanity. I am no longer inside of my body, though it does not make sense. what is this calamity? this beast that eats my sleep continues to grow day after excruciating day. attempting to live, I fill my veins with caffeine. all my nights I hope and pray for some powerful force to pry away this screen that keeps me away from my dreams where at least my pain isn't real and at least people aren't deaf to my screams when everything is what I deeply feel including my heart dragging its feet along, loosely tied to my lungs and my head. all I hear is thump-thump the throbbing as I fall down the rungs of a ladder I'll never be able to climb and no one I know understands how I spend hours under the moon, calculating the time to see how much I might get "if I fall asleep right now" but I never can because my mind is boisterously loud and though I plead with it to just calm down it's volume remains as that of a needy crowd so in the sleepless noise, I continue to drown...

ninety hours
Whenever I’m alone and seemed to be blown Do you stay by my side and act as a pawn? Whenever I like to stay beside you and follow whatever you do It seems that you’re pushing me away to make me feel blue. Whenever I have my problems, you’re the only one I call But it seems that you’re always putting a wall Whenever you have you’re problems I’m always there But it seems that you don’t even seem to care. Though I’m not the best friend you’re looking for I can’t do anything about it but lend an open door I like to ask you series of questions To clear my mind’s doubts and frustrations. I have done everything to satisfy you’re expectations But it seems that you’re so blind too far from my dimension I have tried to be the best friend of yours But I failed to gratify your overpowering course. I think I’m not the right best friend for you Coz you’re so high even how hard I do. But I think you don’t even seem to care Being my best friend, you don’t even dare. I know you have a new best friend But remember I’ll never treat you as my fiend You’ll remain my best friend whenever Beyond Today, Beyond Tomorrow, Beyond Forever. Though you treat me very rare What important is that happiness for you is always there Though it’s very obvious seeing me lonely It hurts when I see you laugh boisterously and loudly. I’m pleased for you and hope you’ll be blissful Though you see me completely mournful I hope you’ll always remember me Cause I’ll be your best friend whatever time be.

It's finally here - the night of the year; come inside for festive cheer. Music playing, party hum, stomach's churning - "What's to come?" I'll settle down when I've been served - won't be feeling so reserved. As I turn my eyes above, I get to see the sight I love. Oh, my... Pretty women in fine voice, fit young men, if that's your choice, but as I upward lift my eyes, I know where my talent lies. Like sacrifices, held in place - slaves to non-existent grace. Found a corner, taking stock; still two hours 'til 12 o'clock. DJ's making crazy sounds; happy atmosphere abounds. Two girls dancing by the tree - does either of them think like me? Time to gather for the chime; almost time for "Auld Lang Syne". Hands perversely beckoning; it's the time of reckoning! New year's dawning gets relayed; see the beautiful cascade. People grabbing what they're after; night's alive with shrieks and laughter. Then the festive bangs begin to make a nice and naughty din. Women glancing to the ground - stepping on the things they've found. Fingers crush their fragile prey; rev'llers boisterously play. People gaily greet their friends with wishes for what 'morrow sends. Soon we'll all be on our way - another year, another day. Ears a-ringing, sounds a-mix; tonight I've really had my fix!

New Year's Eve
Give me a sign you understand, Pleasure my psyche with confirmation, Twist and turn my moral brain, Until it is worn to a bucket of mash. This awkward bio examination you speak of, Has it always been so complex? My finicky brain seeks the resolution, A solution to this core that is common. How is it that man can be man, If man evolves to entities beyond, We are our own experiments of modern science, Constantly analyzing data we have yet to comprehend. A technician fails foolishly, As another earns their Nobel Prize, We are chosen to fit such devious survival tactics, Though in our hearts we look at the consequence. A quizzical I carelessly push aside, Finding it easier to risk the perks, A self made genius consistently preaching, Superiority over those who are victims of doubt. To have a mind like he, Is devilish as much as it is holy, We find vices that motivate illusions, Created by those who are lost in time. Figuring the start of a new, As a new so boisterously grows old, An aging sweet wine with sour grapes, Contained in a waterlogged barrel that never ceases to replace.
