Swiveling chair Clicking mouse Clattering keyboard Replaced by the steady glare at the monitor until it is naught but a blank stare, a blank stare that begets a long pause You wish could last forever with you lost in it; Lost in your benevolent and untainted thoughts Before the abrupt jolt out of your reverie keeps you yearning for the luxury and solitude of your room… Times flies and it’s almost the close of business Yet, your table is in such a mess On it, lies a pile of work undone Tons that require your expert attention with little time left to tidy up You don’t plan to work overtime 'Cause if you gambled that, you won’t make it in time to catch the bus So you pack your bags and hurry down the stairs in time to catch the bus Thinking of how to make up for the time lost all through your journey home You can’t help the thought that taunts as it lingers. Blaming you for leaving a pile of work undone Reminding you that if and if only you had concerted for just a minute longer You could have only left behind papers the cleaners can trash with a toss. -r3d-

The Loop
twas a poor performance on the cricket pitch the fielding side let too many ***** go to the boundary ditch those batsmen were fabulous hitting run after run they really had the fielders well and truly under the gun sixes and fours flew in both sessions of play the batsmen had a magnificent selection of strokes to array the gully fieldsmen and those on the off side were unable to contain the brilliance of the batting side the South African cricketers were too sharp for the Australian team in short order they put paid to the Australian third test dream had the boys from down under done a better job on the cricket pitch the South Africans wouldn't be crowing like a rooster at early morn pitch a concerted effort with fielding would have handsomely paid but the Australian side couldn't withstand the batter's raid before the next test series the Aussies have much homework to do if they wish to accomplish a win over the other crew it is a sad day for this avid devotee of the cricket game she has witnessed a poor performance which was rather lame one is hopeful of a turn around in fortunes for one's cricket side and should it come to pass one will be heartily filled with pride

The Opinion Of Many Before Time; However
An absent father's failure with an inhaler in hand Insecurity seething from his skin Manifesting it's self as bulbous red abrasions on his forehead A heavy breathing child who's eyes were often aimed low His expectations for life even lower A little over weight but not enough to concern his pediatrician He cut gym class a lot because of the showers Now fourteen he had seen a few ****** He knew he didn't match up It was better that no one knew he thought He went on living like this A pale shadow hovering in the halls A faceless nobody in the background of someone else's group photo A ghost who was only noticed by those who tortured him Bullies like sharks can smell blood in the water And he was chum I still vividly see the feeding frenzy I still remember the day we were told he took his own life NO shrieks, NO cries, NOT even a whimper was heard Almost a concerted sigh of boredom That night there was a party Not to celebrate his death But an apathetic gesture of his nonexistence I attended as was socially expected of me Even wore a smile But my mind wrestled with his suicide I thought of how much I hated him I hated the smell of his weakness I hated the 'poor me' attitude I hated him for taking his own life Leaving me to feel guilty That I had done nothing to help him As if I was responsible in some way ...

It has often been said That true love doesn't exist But that doesn't stop me from dreaming After all, I am a romantic And it's not like I believe in true love Only because I've read about it in books Or seen it happen in movies and TV shows In fact, I've experienced it myself Not once, but twice On the first occasion, I was young and naive Enjoying life to its fullest And when the love bug bit me It was one of my happiest moments I looked forward to every single day And for the first time in many years I actually made a concerted effort To excel in academics However, to cut a long story short I missed the bus by a mile When it came to confessing my feelings Right, let's come to the second occasion Technically, it was an arranged marriage But for me, it was as good as a love marriage Because, after our engagement I grew so deeply attached to the girl That I was blind To all the red flags thrown at me Every now and then Again, to cut a long story short It eventually ended in a divorce However, as I've mentioned before I have not lost hope yet After all, time is still on my side However, I need to draw a line somewhere Firstly, being open and honest Is an absolute must I will tell you everything But I expect the same from you as well Secondly, I am looking for someone Who is loyal till the very end I will be with you Through thick and thin But if you cheat on me Then it's over, once and for all And finally You need to accept me as I am With my pros as well as cons That includes understanding my autism And the limitations it places on me Especially as far as social interaction is concerned Of course, it works both ways I am not looking for a perfect person either After all, if it's perfect Then it's not true love And one of the major reasons I still believe in true love Is that it's full of imperfections That's what makes it so endearing And so human

Constantly tripping, stumbling The circus search for imperfect heels I’ve offered so little effort to protect My love for the empirically ideal Concerted my focus on what never to expect I’ve been wearing a chip upon my shoulder With an Achillean charm Been chopping at my shin to guard my pride When I should have thought myself an Oddarm And thereby learned to fly And of all the endless grained aspects Strewn on the gray beaches of time I could not have wasted my ignorance On one more voraciously sublime To squander the virtues of such chance And the glancing blows of life Shape in me such strange affect.

Strange Affect
In misplaced demographics, an underlying figure Gets lost in the middle of double-helixed bound’ry lines Dissolving past parameters, confounding to the mind, A deadlocked debate decides if pain or love is bigger It’s like the world’s hardest riddle, answers buried deftly That no savant or prodigy is able to surmise And the truth does differ from what words can now describe. I’ve learned that one can tread life’s forest with a steady course And with the best of intentions and stark, concerted path Turn winding bends ambiguous: mistake a birch for ash So to end the tiring journey in tangent to its source The nature of the Earth is neither white nor black It’s more like the palate used when blue becomes grayish sky But, then again, it’s not this easy to describe Inside my head there lies a circuit, closed unto itself So, through this loop I’ve learned to see the difference between Progress and regression, what has been and has never been, Is like finding from a deck why each hand differs that is dealt But the answer matters not, for the circle spins again It’s kind of like the ocean where the calm and break collides But, then again, it’s not this easy to describe. I’ve watched a daunting fog descend upon my clouded eyes It curbs the hue of ev’rything to darker spectrum shades So this shroud submerges light until definition fades, Frustrates the sense of passion; luster steadily subsides When the mind’s only window is comprised of rippled glass, It’s like a drunkard’s double vision having not imbibed But, then again, it’s not this easy to describe. Each step I take grows even more uncertain than the last If I could convey to you the shape of this confusion If I could draw a diagram or picture of delusion Then you and I might, together, construct and raise a mast So with to steer life’s wayward ship back toward a purpose At times, I’m unsure if living’s just learning to survive So, in this pall, I reach you now, and in you I confide.

Just Like a Golfer
You as a layman May never experience this And it is most likely You won't But If you ever catch on fire Remember the three rules I speak of now 1.stop           Don't panic, realize your situation, and that you can be okay though calm, concerted effort, don't run! Running only creates oxygen to fuel the flame 2.drop          Fall to the floor, even the very act of being on the floor smothers whatever part of you that is burning that hits the floor. And it is necessary to be on the floor to achieve the most important lesson being taught within my words 3.telephone           Now that you are on the floor, pull out your telephone. Strike a pose, and take a selfie. Because for gods sake you are on fire, and you know that it can go viral. And really, dying by burning to death is worth it if you are able to entertain someone in doing so. Instagram will go crazy over you And I suppose step four would be after you have a picture you like, then  roll to put the fire out. But most people never make it this far.

Stop, Drop, and Telephone ( a safety manuel)
there seems to be no end of armed cowards killing peaceful civilians about to do their jobs or visit friends and chat at airports in the underground or in cafés and then acknowleding full responsibility for that grandiose achievement of putting electric wires into some explosives and sending innocent people to their death these self-styled martyrs claim their deeds are prompted by religious ends and not the simply joy of killing those who have no arms for their defense and are quite unaware they have become the targets of delirious murderers who seriously imagine their heinous crimes could please their god and if they blow themselves away together with their victims would send them straight into a paradise with many earthly and some heavenly rewards or so they say watching them over all these years I have my doubts that any god has business with those guys or they with him like other groups before them they abuse religion to justify their greed and power games god for them is simply a façade to mask their inhumanity it’s time the world says a concerted NO and makes it clear to all barbarians of our century that our tolerance is not for them

concerted NO!
Picture me suckling on her elbows, lips enveloping that round lump, teeth scraping up past the skins’ v-fold, you might even want to dress that elbow in dotted pale cerise cotton ******* picture me lapping at her neck, tongue thwapping, spit running down to the corners of the mouth, bright nose pressed firm into the temple, my salacious grin in the wee pit of her eyes, Yes I am there. Picture me pawing, growling, climbing up her thin skinny young legs, my junk clambering its way into her grove garden cemetery of Hearse boxes and heart suitcases, where by death nothing grows anymore. Picture heavy, weighty, fleshy flesh tearing to shreds those photos you’ve been keeping of changing diapers in the back of your mind, those pictures on the top of your Steinway, picture me in your picture frames. Picture me I am the perfect imbecilic interstices to incise your pristine sweethearts’ heart, picture me, for I am the beast trammeling your restful sleep. Picture me while I take what I please, picture me as I take and I cleave, fueled by rancor and grief, I am your concerted antithesis of pleas and no’s and pleadings. I am but her best friend till the end. Picture me, woof woof. Picture me.

Pictures of Me
It takes on deaths horrible form thereunto, Breaching the seas pensively askew; Spun brutally from troubling winds of false accord, Ignored by expression but surely explored. O 'tis madness, voices beat savagely in my head, Upon quiet of night as insanely they wilfully imbed. Through mortal fear I am awakened, There's nowhere pleasant to run 'tis my chastened. Of life's despairs nor demons wrathful hold, Hast thereof nightmares foretold. In the chilling air, killing heedful wisdoms impaired, Had I faltered, I'd been sadly unprepared. Pressed onwards I could only dream, With care it'd be a future supreme. Deep in my bleeding thoughts I tried to grasp it, Yet every brutal bound 'twas likely unfit. Ah, let evil echo through my disrupting mind, The faces, that blushed mostly unkind. A hideous desire inexplicable, entombed from within, Hastily it beckons thereunto an original sin. The voices, whose horrid duty I deplore, Of the old vast despairs it will implore. But alone I am 'tis surely surpassing a realm of rage, And all I seen, mattered naught offstage. Regrettably in the valley of despair I have always lived, Therefrom I am truly a weltered child deprived. Onto the rough cobble stones bloodied and quite torn, That tragic wind, caught in hells uproar forlorn. A sea of red, kept in an eternal twinge, Through to agonies I'd impinge. Ah how they weep, the mystic fools they weep, In fake smiles these too rustle forth and reap. Though I'm stirred I cannot follow, O'er endless toil I as wallow. Unto violent passions, soaring in tempting extremes, Of pastures buried, a life in poor redeems. For nothing concerted I came thereafter seeking, Every question asked it begged a haggard beseeching. Thus in a dim labyrinth of lies I found some solace, Here in the direst valley of despair it's my disgrace.

Something I've observed and maybe you've noticed it too that your dance is always the same with steps well-tread, familiar; a frown, a concerted effort to hold that cigarette in place before the resolution; you sit back, always one ankle resisting on the opposite knee, contented.

the golden nugget
Striving towards a goal, seeking to be better today than yesterday. I push myself to achieve more. Looking to be a better person, through discipline and sacrifice, all of these lessons are applied in every aspect of my life. Being kinder to others, while improving my own state of existence. I seek to move to a new level with each concerted effort. If I can reach a new goal, if I can help another person, then I have moved beyond what I did before and I have gone beyond my own expectations and perhaps I will inspire others to do the same.

Raising The Bar
Liberté, égalité, fraternité. L’ homme est né libre, Pourtant partout il est enchaîné. An eternally torturous question, Oozing out of our minds like an infection; Are we all equal? Perhaps not when it comes to skill; Some can lead, some can thrill. Some can cook, and therefore feed; Some can run, some can read. All of us can do something – No standardised test, No uniformly assigned competition Could ever possibly measure This unique treasure, The human ability to set off on an endeavour And achieve astounding feats. So, then – Are we born equally endowed? Perhaps not; should differential talents Be stimulated, encouraged, Voiced aloud? A resounding yes, a thousand times yes! We should only accept being under duress When of forced labour and working to exist We start hearing less and less, When that concerted effort is directed Not at striving at surviving But at truly living, not just slowly dying. Truly living is about doing what you love, Being able and free to do so, Learning that which you don’t know And expanding that which you do know. This is not our reality – We are all born exactly the same, Yet the country you were born in Hell, even your family’s name, Are things that determine Where you will be positioned In this foul, ***** game. This is where we aren’t born equal – In our right and access To freely engage in the pursuit of happiness. There is a seedling of potential in all of us, One that can be grown – Let it be known That all seedlings can become a mighty tree, If given the following three: A space in which a fertile mind can be cultivated, A community in which love can be propagated, And the freedom to exist without being incarcerated.

It's a guitar And its strings we are Together they share their feelings And concerted efforts all put in for sweet melodies

Relationship
Doing my utmost to keep my word is how I live as taught by my father although he didn't always keep his I make a concerted effort to be better Now that I have a son, it is absolutely essential 2 have his trust 4 my benefit Never make PROMISES which cannot be kept according to mother and as we know... mom is always always correct At the mercy of all who dictate my inner circle, my blessings emanate from from on high to shape my pathway Oh PROMISES PROMISES, do I dare break you, for the repercussions may have lasting consequences on everyone so I matriculate to refine my stance on keeping PROMISES and all it entails.

PROMISES PROMISES
The mouse in the maze is very weary. It’s way too much concerted effort Just to earn a grain of corn. The route is always changing And someone turns off and on the lights. The music plays the same song, over The humming of the ventilators And the shutter bangs incessantly. The mouse is tired of stupid games. No one cares which way it runs, Or how much corn drops into the bowl. The smell of *** in the far back corner Makes the air unpleasant to inhale. The will to win another piece of corn Battles with the need to find The exit that is at the other end. Notes have to be written down Measurements and timings Fill the logbooks of the staff, As bored and weary as the mouse. Protocols must still be followed Finally the time clock in the hall Clicks over to the magic hour And mouse and men can all go home. ljm

PAYDAY II
Down here in the undergrowth The ground steals the sky In a concerted effort To help us walk upon the clouds And help us dance on cotton stars We lie in stealth Just waiting to lunge At all the poor souls Who voice their droning disapprovals And slink back to the wilderness Beyond the embankment There's a crystal reservoir Shimmering with lust and sympathy A place to fritter and drown the world A place to scour the stigmas and the stains So now we await the arrival Of full-scale war on our borders Taking our slow, bittersweet time Time to rethink and reflect Time to plant envy, and watch it grow

Envy (Cotton Stars)
Right after my name, There is a year there, the year of my birth, the year I have no memory of, the year that I was born, Its there, signifying my entrance into this world My spectacular entrance as a third child, born to a third child, Destined to be without a destination, That mighty bruiser who cries and whimpers, but will grow to be No more afraid or chilled or concerted than the man Who has little emotion, and can feel those things around him As everyone does, but different in the way, that blue smells good And bread blows yellow across the window, To finding that the greatest salt earth driven thing Is the love that one can feel, but not touch. Tell me of this work, these years all past and past again, Seeing those people around that aren't around anymore, And figuring out that my life, when figured on a mathmatical basis Is more than half way gone, no three quarters gone. All this ****** work, and knowledge and love and hate, And covering it up to be something, I know I am not, All but the dash.  Look, it is there, on this page of poetry, On these words that so simply tell me or tell you what is, And there is that despicable dash, that will show two centuries, Two hundred years to choose from, this dash shall be in collection Of those years. Leave it blank.

Hate the Dash
I'm just a little introverted, Which is not to say perverted, But I'm really quite concerted, To retain my energy Now I know you're extroverted, And it’s clear that you've asserted, That you wish I'd be converted, But that isn't good for me Our natural state is just inverted, To great throngs I'm quite averted, And I'd rather be diverted, To a quiet place you see? So please don’t think I've subverted, If you think I'll be inserted, Into crowds, you're controverted, Now please kindly leave me be!

Ins and Outs
My heart holds no remorse for me, and the love that I have lost No sympathy for heartache, no concept of the cost The empty time that saw my heart be frozen by the frost From bitter winds of loneliness and the cold lines I have crossed Somewhere along the way it seems I found myself deserted The love that once had burned in me, so strangely now diverted Perhaps the efforts of my hopeless days and nights, concerted Have left me here alone again, all thoughts of love perverted Many tears ago now, I had known loves warm embrace Too many years ago now to remember saving grace Though I recall your loving ways, the smiles there on your face I say your name out loud at times, conjecture, just in case I know it does no good now, to impart these thoughts to you These dreams of what once was, now lost in memorial review It leaves me deep within myself, my thoughts slightly askew My heart refuses all requests to mislay its love for you A heart that once knew what it meant, to love and hold so dear The feelings of another heart, to comfort and revere To see what lies ahead in life, where thoughts are crystal clear Only soon to witness all that sadness will reveal Hearts are never meant you see, to grieve in lamentation Our minds recalling memories in quiet meditation Tears fall as the rain, and as you drown in desperation You find that you are traveling to sorrows destination And so I must submit to the things that hearts bestow And somehow to endure the pain my heart must undergo I wonder if your heart will thus allow the status quo And I alone, to long for you... I guess that's how it goes I live with a remorseless heart, for love I can’t retain Within the thoughts of heartache and these things I can’t explain I wonder when will love repent, to circumvent the pain And quiet my poor broken hearts sorrowful refrain....
