"chatoyant" poems
i walked in a garden i saw roses, daisies, bougainvilleas pagoda and peonies too and somehow they reminded me of you the roses reminded me of your lips how it's so red and lovely how it curves whenever your smile along with your eyes how it separates when you laugh the daisies reminded me of your eyes how it slowly blooms beautifully in morning how lovely when it slowly closes at night how chatoyant it was when touched by light the bougainvillea reminded me of your being how you stood strong despite everything how you stayed lucent and beautiful how you let yourself bloom in many colours the pagoda reminded me of your skin how it's yellowish and eternally beautiful how smooth and soft it was how selcouth it seems in my retina the peonies reminded me of your heart how it's still exquisite despite of its fragile figure how it's still eesome even though it looks wrinkled how it stays strong and pulchritudinous walking in the garden felt serendipitious it felt like walking inside your existence and i liked it.

the pulchritude in you
Not snowy seraphs of heaven above Nor lustrous gems by heaven's stonking wall, Shall outshine the eternal mark of love Thou blazoned upon the skin of my soul. Though midst my wake and dreaming hours I know, Heaven's meanest pier is of burnished gold, And celestial shores chatoyant than snow, But all not as bright as the mark I hold. For when fickle time in layers of life Shalt shroud me, and away I must then run To meet the judge of souls, lest lasting grief Were my soul's fate, I mean to burn and burn,    The fragrance of thy love could still linger    Freshly upon my soul's fading ember. *#Decasyllabic #Iambic pentameter #Quatrains #Couplet #Shakespearean sonnet*   Kikodinho Edward Alexandros, Jumeirah, Dubai, 14th.Jan.2018.

Not Snowy Seraphs Of Heaven Above (Sonnet 0013)
We were a beleaguered bard born, a chief in chatoyant charms charged with the principle petrichor of passionate paramours; to drive the dainty dalliances of incipient ingénues immured in glamourous gossamer gowns; lilting, lead lissome lads 'long labyrinthine love; mischeiviously make mellifluous mondegreens; sing of such serendipity: surreptitiously susurrous sessions scintillas of Spring's sempiternal sentiments! But fetching fugues fade fast, felicity's fated to fly. For penumbral poets, it portends a pyrrhic pay. We wander woebegone, waiting wistfully. Lovers leave lyricists to languish in lonely lassitude. The halcyon heyday has harbingered inbroglio in the inured inventor of infatuation. Why? With what wherewithal? Often our offerings off us, opposite of, obviously, obtaining, or, lucidly: lyrical lacers of Love likewise lack its livening lagniappe.

The Most Beautiful Words in English (Aren't Enough To Find Love)
Acquiesce here my love Ameliorate my heart The assemblage of circumstance provides dulcet ebullience An efflorescent dalliance conflated into cathartic becoming My bucolic bungalow made upon your callipygous A young Life’s denouement Your evocative elixir fetching An erstwhile emollient embrocation Your eloquent fingers find their way to frisson My felicitous chatoyant gambols in glamor like a halcyon incipient made ineffable by the look of the ingénue The labyrinthine inglenook lagoon leisurely lithe The murmurous daffodils wink at the insouciance of your beauty A panoply panacea, the half shadow complete as an epiphany Quintessential to feminine riparian resplendence Your mellifluous voice, an opulent offing, the sumptuous summery soliloquy of an angel Cools my soul like the smell of earth after rain Your propinquity ripples the scintilla of my spirit Your surreptitious smile like a zephyr quietly whispers Its redolent seraglio sempiternal in my thoughts As skyward gazes like saccharine gossamer lilt with the knowledge of our raveling juxtaposition a masterful pastiche, the cynosure of divine revelation

Beautiful Words
My beloved angel One with Radiant hazel eyes Chatoyant like clusters Of stars On a moonless night My beloved angel One with A warm sultry smile As to tempt wary kissers Commit mischief My beloved angel One with A pristine voice So fresh As to wake the dead From their desolate Silent graves My beloved angel One with a vivacious voice So euphonious As to elicit The descent of angels Down unto earth My beloved angel One with A melodious voice So harmonious As to leave one In a daze Just mesmerized Whilst stars scintillate Athwart velvet skies My beloved angel One with A dimpled cheek Giving way for onlookers As to be hypnotized Whilst stars scintillate Athwart velvet skies My beloved angel One with Bona fide pulchritude Which brings about Myriads of creatures From across all environs Surrounding her   Gravitate towards her As to crave Such a ravishing queen My beloved angel One whose Exuberant personality Had me thrilled to bits Vanished like whispers In the wind

My Beloved Angel
Bathtubs don’t work for quantum suicide But every time I take one, A part of me dies What was nice under the crescent aglow? Drunk on stars, or the moon lit show… Ash of night, cradled what was once mine, The repertoire of ever-syncing- jawlines. Puissant is the chalice, its exaltation shined so bright, Bestowed liberation underneath the chatoyant light, The open windows left  niveous  fogs- Breathed -stained –air,  against crystal ***** Alive and one, under the entire earthly tempo, Together left her organic imprints of art nouveau. Beneath the warmth and petrichor ground, The Lord and Lady commence to be crowned. ...Tree roots sink as veins of gods. The serpent whispers his mellifluous facade... The sharp shove of love’s first arrow Lover’s spit, a seed for cupid’s bucolic furrow. Scripture of Solomon’s *** temple of doom All within the nicotine-stained-blue-infrared-bedroom, Velvet allure, bellies of vigor, The cold point, the pulled trigger. Dance of Thelma, ancient cults of non-lovers Feasting north, under the Horned God’s antlers. The concoction of the widow’s deviated lust Skins alive, the excited wolf-mans’ husk… The gun’s mouth ex hailed bullets of smoke Piercing hot wounds became tender lilts in up word strokes. Still, they brought, perforating ice knives through the chest Catching fades perpetually, just until two came abreast. The shadow dalliance and hair pulls leave those weary, The anise flower seeds sanction the suffering query. What was once so beautiful at night? Forgotten, as I turned red-haired-heathen in morning’s sight So I take my hot bath, inure in my offing. Emollient paean of the porcelain, ...which is my skin See you, my ethereal being, In short time spring will be fleeting

The city is shut, sparing its prey until tomorrow. Night rules, dreams creep down the street, eyes dead Her poised being is the center of universe, that girl She is loath to beg yet for the twenty fourth time of the night she sings out, God? It’s two in the morning and they are sitting at the balcony, God and her, both holding a cigarette Mother and father are in screaming colors but she is, only, the darkest blue Two of them are contradiction, a vexing rendezvous but they yearn for each other so once in a while they talk People talk A boy across the house is found dead Parents roaring, raging, crashing the ground, he’s wearing a pair of new basketball shoes. Blue. He is one of million, a delicate kind, very comely, a subtle presence. Neighbors murmur maybe God fell in love, maybe God enraptured by the boy. But God is peeking behind the closed door with the girl Between their fingers still a burning cigarette Maybe it’s the taste of Marlboro Red, the girl wishing an epiphany, a revelation, for its been too long, the girl and God writing each other’s eulogy. The girl has been dead for God and God has been dead for the girl, ruptured for a very long time, there’s no way back. No long talk can fix the burn of cigarette, the eternal crippling affliction taped up in every cavity inside the holy temple of their body A lady in the house with doors and windows painted blue is murdered. She was having a dalliance and neighbors talk behind their open bible. God cringes, God recoils, her god is a beige-tied, cigarette scented with hair slicked back. She was in his thrall, calls her name in a mesmerizingly fetching way making her girl again, an ingénue with a pair of chatoyant eyes. Bodies clashing, her muse, they fuse, he choose to ruse, dead, God is amused, time is lapsed, but perhaps she was not divine. A lady in someone’s car trunk, murdered, dear God! Inhaling. Conflating. Cigarette smoke all over the veins. A bright blue car parked across the street. A week since the boy died. A week since the lady went missing. People talk about somewhere this week another dead body is going to be found. Maybe in the park under the slide or on a high school bleacher, like the girl found God under her bed. The first encounter of God and the girl. God and the girl run out of cigarette counting the days God and the girl Next time won’t be cigarette and balcony. God and the girl next time at a bar with blue sign where sinners and saints sipping absinthe because God won’t talk to anyone but the girl. God and the girl sipping absinthe because the city is shut. Eyes dead.

As We Forgive Our Debtors ( A Sestina for Father in Heaven)
The city is shut, sparing its prey until tomorrow.

I call upon their harmony They honor me with artistry The pupils of Apollo's Lyre resonant inside of me Calliope adventurous, Intrepid in her recklessness Emboldening my will to lead The unenlightened on this quest Through Clio's scrolls of history My oracle clairvoyant She has graced me with the vision Of the future sky chatoyant And a buoyant sea of Euterpe All floating through the lyricist That synchronizes all of this Into a metamorphosis Evolving as Erato's love A heart as soft as silk A dove, tabula rasa thirsting for The Mother Gaea's milk To rise from Melpomene Masks of tragic flaws of Icarus For I divine the comedies Thalia simply can't resist Polyhymnia, Terpsichore My rarest of expressions Still reveal themselves in forms Of spirit guide possessions When Urania in cosmic bliss Transports me to the stars Reborn again to join them As Mnemosyne's memoirs

Invocation of the Muses
i. She is becoming As she hast ameliorated mine pang's; Her radiance is chatoyant She melt's mine thought's, with her dusk black and wet bang's. ii. Her bungalow is mine own Bucolic and historically hidden; We're passionate in ourn dwelling The walls brushed with ourn amour', tucked between ceiling's. iii. Memorabilia she keepeth Of her childhood in a small room; I stareth at her adolescent memory photo's Thinking God made her on the moon. iv. Feeling how blessed I am With mine Jane, neath her plume's; Her wing's stretch out, north to south A defense from demon crew's. v. A exemplar to the Almighty architect The embodiment to all mine livelihood; She's the road to peace, from west to east On mine knee's I looketh to her, I kisseth her feet. For she's mine queen........... ©Brandon nagley ©lonesome poet's poetry ©Earl Jane nagley dedication

Dulcet bungalow
Laughter reaches new bounds When you ask/ax me " do I have pasketti on my face?" Like a wild aminal you crawl Over and smear that pasketti On my cheeks Like 60's rouge Never meant to leave the Avon catalog. cute comf-ta-ble sweaters Swath lithe body like soft down Byrds outside singing Dancing in green foil-age. Go join them, Eyes chatoyant and comely. With pasketti still on your face You chirp like them byrds, Such ebullience fits in with the robins.

Metathesis
He never taught me how to perform the art of the jump-shot. I simply watched. He would dribble down the clumsy circle of our carport, back up behind the exomaed bicycle and detach his body from the world, against gravity’s insistent pull and fade into a legend, his wrist becoming a swan pecking toward the sun. He never taught me how to arc a blade, the gripping bite of a razor, against my cheek. I simply watched. He would lather his face with foam and I sat conversing with him as the blade giddily glided, graceful as a demi-god reaping the crop of auburn from his then young face. When I tried, as a teenager, I nicked my upper lip and only harvested my own blood. When he grilled, he flipped the meat like an ace of spades, magic in his wrist revealed. When he drove, his hands and feet became extensions of the car. When he drove a bus, his eyes sought all angles of the road, chatoyant caution in the flicker of his iris. When he fiddled with our old, beaten, mellow-toned guitar he was articulate though he never knew a chord’s name nor what song erupted from him. He read the Bible, but kept the gospel in his eyes, at the tip of his green thumb. He read the Koran, the Torah, the words of Gotham. I read how he sought truth, beauty, in all people. I simply watched him traverse the dividing line between saint and stubborn, between sinner and relinquish. If there was ever a man after some God’s heart, he was one who asked questions and lived into the answers. He kept his hands clean, kept his chin high and mind was always lofty and companioned with a world of dreams. He would often stare out windows sitting at the dinner table, and I knew he was living into a prayer. I never asked what he was doing, never asked how to do what he could do. What my Father taught me was to listen to my own inner voice, no other’s, and if I wanted to be a man, I was to simply watch what a man did for that spoke a language more fluid than air.

I filled three trashcans, granted the bathroom size, to the brim with crumpled college-ruled cursive, failed attempts at the marriage of language and vision, all the things in my mind I could not put to paper. I couldn’t find the million-dollar words I wanted. I Google’d the “100 most beautiful words of the English language.” Efflorescence. I would have liked to use that one. Or maybe petrichor. Chatoyant. I tried to give mass to chimeras. They grew old easily, floating down a temporal lazy river. Her tissue-paper dreams were torn by the hooks of hometown love. My metaphors fell flat. I tried to envision Parnassus, something like rolling hills dotted with vibrant flowers, plants with names I do not know lining the slopes. I am not familiar with Greek foliage. I imagined myself climbing, turning over rocks in search of inspiration. I found only isopods. Between 5/4 inch margins I constructed a paper balloon, my papyrus mausoleum. Here is my embalmed work. Blank. Blank. Blank.

i. I shalt continueth to giveth mine Aeipathy to mine sweetheart Jane; Kissing her Lip's, juice running succulent Again, again, and repeating over again. ii. Aerial on vapor circle's, tip-toeing, Unworldly, ourn halo's coruscate; Aloft sketches of cumulus imitate Me and mine Reyna's rainbow shade. iii. Her Chatoyant face And her glace shape; Envelop's me inside Her preternatural grace. ©Brandon Nagley ©Earl Jane Nagley/Filipino rose dedication ©Lonesome poet's poetry

glioscarnach Seraph ( Chatoyant seraph) old irish tongue
you were the lacunar bolt the part of a life spent wishing on stars if stars had ever granted anything but light chatoyant the yellow pilot lamp down the street trembles weakly wanting to burn out it flickers like a sun struggling long past its expiration date I was an absquatulate scholar of wrinkled bedsheets and the way the light ineffable shone around us as though we were the ******* center of it all a slow-motion salvation is better than instant gratification behind words like I believe I can’t accept this I will give you back your left behind particulars: your lingerie your photographs the calligraphy in your letters the blanket I have slept under for three years dreaming you might give me back the ring I willfully saved for you in the abditory between these walls I was building for us broken promises refract sanguine light and shape future homes into abandonment

i Her chatoyant cat's view's art check-rows, wherein cheribum run Therapeutic is her coalesce, when me and her art in caress, love Antelucan passionance ensues, anthem to mine muse, elsa-grace. Costume's to be festive, the crowd gathers us interested, in amour ii She felleth through the milky way galaxy, unearthed by humans She was In a capsule of alien breed, wearing cupid attire tunic As I'm just a felon, I hadst to keepeth mine head hung down low Because if they captured me, they'd capture the queen, so I told the king take mine head to SAVETH her soul... . ©Brandon nagley ©Lonesome poets poetry ©Elsa angelica dedicated

Mine life for her soul
I found you in a potter’s field… Sleeping softly in your fears. Loquacious demons stole your dreams And wasted treasured years. I’m sorry that the rain won’t stop Your moistened bed is caving in. A chatoyant moon to watch over you, Highlighting each one of your sins. If I could close your eyes, I would. I’d sing you back to sleep. It only takes a minute But you’re resting in there pretty deep. Kicking at your wooden box, Screaming out your prayers It kills you when the thing you love, Isn’t yours Its theirs.

Resident of the Ground
I met a lover, once In a diner where the mud was strong Everyone was honey, and heart attacks were delicious He gave her a bag filled with Her favorites, and drizzles of lexicon (She was the only script he ever burned) Not a word was returned But her chatoyant glazzies watered And he swore for A moment She loved him back Disproportionate, I thought, to the months he'd spent Planning a tribute for her origin day Less than I spent on his remembered name As it trickled down a dampened page Runny, like he hated his eggs (a shame) I sipped my mud and wondered Why do men love rope

He was an older man Of about forty five years He had a wife and children And his very own home One day, abruptly A phone call came in From the hospital of the town He had grown up in His father, a man Late in his years Had just passed away And so started the tears Now, his father was one For whom he had utmost respect For his father raised him alone Since the day he was born The next few weeks Were a blur to the man For he had just lost his hero It was a sudden slam The man was back At his childhood home After the funeral He sat in his old room He was looking through a few Of his old playthings When he picked up a box He heard rattle around Inside he saw His old collection of marbles Oxbloods and oilies Lutz, aggies, and clambroths He noticed a piece of paper Under his favorite marble A chatoyant thumper His father had given him as a starter He unfolded the paper And he was surprised to see His father's handwriting He began to read “Son, I know that you're reading this It means I’m probably gone But one thing I want you to know Is that you’ll never be alone I remember the day that your mother left You had just been born I swore that very day you’d never miss her I’d be your dad, your mom, and more As I watched you grow Into the man you are I couldn’t be prouder Of who you’ve become I’ll love you more than you’ll ever know I’m proud to call you my son Be the husband and father I know you can be Because I know you’re a **** good one I know you’re probably heartbroken But don’t be sad for too long Because I’ll forever watch over you Goodbye, son, please stay strong” The man had tears in his eyes When his little girl walked him She looked at him with big brown eyes And asked her daddy what’s wrong He shook his head and said nothing While picking his princess up He carried her and his marbles downstairs A sad, hopeful smile stuck on his lips

venin sweet
From stars to cars and bars of all kinds, I snarl of wreaths that paraded mankind, Which once gargled me in a brawling growl, But it will no longer howl No more. Forgotten Sootened, They lay in Blackened Lying Ice of Cold and Tremors Murmurs of sore nerves Of Cold chills spine-wrenching curves I have no remorse. Whining groins to pawning reigns, I gwaah at sheaths made of chatoyant neighs It once skewed in me a featherly meow Lest I forget the breeze And howl into that ol’e reprise.

Nostalgia is Dopamine Doping up
Bungalow bunkie, Doth thou awaken or sleep to thy dust you accumulate? Captious are one's these slothful ciggarrete nights!!! Electrolight, Come near that I may feel warmth, As a child in early birth I seek forane high class milk, Footlights on stilts do the the actors take high position!! Not seeking the inefficient, But the tower of Babel gone lost!!!! Injurious kirtles are kinless, Thy best friend is now friend less, Due to thine own kindness!!!! Lamb-kin darling, Canst thou lance these burns to cuts? For what's missing in the soot? Lamenting chalice... A king and a queens palace I'll die to live in, For a smile and a grin cannot be weighed!!! Hay/fever will take the fidelity of what's polite!!! Damoclean of wintergreen, Do you flatter by ones self? Or doth thou Get help from dandering blotters!!!! Intimate plotters of murderer's and lost hopes fun!!! Chatoyant skin doeth I wish to feel once, Where thy stage is real_, No stunts!!!!! Just reality of cavern lathered seducing!!!!

Brumous academe
Day closes to an open window– A sill, a still rest for my spent legs; Torqued over to face the breeze, welcome chills Swing the brush with each croak of my knees. Laughs crane over amber roof clay– And somewhere behind a white fence It’s someone’s birthday, a dog brays, coos rouse a baby Who cries off-key with the family’s song A dark cluster shifts in the sky, And the moon emerges from nil. I’d forgotten my eyes but to see like this… So long since the night kept me filled… Spark lights strung in beads on a rope -Chatoyant, chatoyant comme diamants– “Brille et brille petit étoile” string the notes of a mother’s rock-a-bye song My squeak of a refrain pitters into the air -Cassant, cassant comme verre- No love from eclipses we sing to, No peace from mullings in prayer Then a fairy book glow sweeps this vision– Its air thick and sweet to the tongue– My glance caught by shimmering scales on the back Of this Ville like a dragon in slumber —oh, to dance on that spine —to leap from his eaves into air! —to fly with these legs where I don’t have to sleep —and days don’t sit brittle and spare But fingers to the pulse in my cheek— To a cauldron of wicked alchemy— Trace an infection spreading like dragons’ wings Where beasts may be best left sleeping. Painfully pretty, the light grows ever fainter, I should drink it in while I can still see— There’s a reason art’s left to the painter, And my brush colors sorrow on everything. 
But I’m not sorry now, nor sad, though my eyes water And wobble the world ’til I blink; With my back towards the concrete, grounded, this altar Casts a reverence over everything.

Day closes to an open window– A sill, a still rest for my spent legs; Torqued over to face the breeze, welcome chills Swing the brush with each croak of my knees.

THE AILUROPHILE CHILD
"Les femmes jouissent d'abord par l'oreille" Dit Marguerite Duras Toi, mon HYDRE-MUSE, tu jouis Par l'oreille absolue et frivole Magnifiée Par la danse à contre-temps De la poésie pénétrante Du saxo et de la tumba Du coupé décalé et de l'azonto Entre violons et accordéons Qui fait voltiger sur tes hanches Toute la copelia complicada de ta libido. Je rentre sans hâte dans la mue de la couleuvre Et je te ceins la taille. Réinventons les croisés en cinquième position Du ballet classique de Noureev, Petipa et Balanchine Et à quatre pattes virevoltons dans le Bolchoi. Setenta y ocho : Je te tatoue le bas des reins D'un tatou boule qui exécute Des renversés arrière multicolores Dans les plus intimes sillons de ta peau. Cero : Verbum Sapientiae Principium Est ! De mon pinceau chatoyant je dessine Des pas de bourrée étourdissants Aux confins de tes cambrures Setenta y siete : Tu miaules des entrechats charnels Et tu tournoies comme un ventilateur Et tu me dis : viens, mon prince, Montre-moi tes ronds de jambes doubles Ochenta y quatro : je te prends par les orteils tout en te caressant l'oreille Et je te dis vas-y Cuarenta y cinco : Dombolo baroque dès que tu bouges tes fesses pour m'inviter à tes Messes de sabbat Très y media : Demi-pointe sur les tétons qui frémissent et qui clignent des yeux La peau de ton aréole gauche  danse la biguine Ton sein droit fait voltiger du jus de grenade Sesenta : Un deux trois cinq six sept Un seul fouetté Tu enchaînes les figures libres et académiques Passe après passe Tu plantes dans le taureau farceur tes aromates Et je crie Banco et tu me mordilles la paume de la main. Setenta complicada : J'aime notre gourmandise choreographee clitoridienne, anale, phallique et vaginale Cet appétit colossal de ballet épicé à la Merce Cunningham, Alvin Ailey et Martha Graham Qui nous prend entre deux morts de tous nos lacs des cygnes primaux Nous en sommes les danseurs étoiles les solistes les premiers danseurs les petits rats les chorégraphes et les maîtres de ballet À nous deux nous formons une troupe Réincarnée Et nous signons de nos plumes de chair notre martingale lubrique : Un deux trois... Cinq six sept Un deux trois... Cinq six sept Un deux trois... Cinq six sept

Eons ago, in the far countryside, Twixt a sequestered strange bush Where early boughs grow wide And rank, there dwelt a Thrush. Not far off on yonder dwelt a dove Whose feathers were as white as snow, With eyes chatoyant than stars above, And her nest of feathers of fairest glow. One colorful morning, in a soft hum the dove Cooed, “Dear Thrush, how sweet thy voice, Nighly akin unto those of seraphim above, Charming than of mermaids of a fairy sea!” “Dear dove, how fair the hue of thy wings,” Softly replied the Thrush. “Thrice more fair Than multicolored maidens of golden rings That fairly beam through the midnight air!” And, on yon day in yon sequestered kingdom, They made nuptial vows to walk down the aisle. A new nest of thatches of gold was their home, And there dost dwell evermore with a radiant smile. © Kikodinho Edward Alexandros, Los Angeles, California. 02/20/2020.
