"creations" poems
We were born in different shapes, colors, and size Not a single embryo was able to decide their DNA or blood type But that shouldn't make us less humans than the others It's the diversity that makes us exquisite and beautiful Break down the stereotype that beauty is fair skin, that beauty is a skinny and blonde-haired lady that beauty is wearing clothes with branded labels that beauty is applying tons of foundation and mascara Who are we to determine the standard of beauty, anyway? While each of us is God's creativity, authentically made by His hands Who are we to judge God's taste in art, anyway? While each of us is uniquely magnificent, as His creations are never less than a masterpiece Keep in mind that the real beauty lies within ourselves, beneath our skin, between our thoughts, and inside our soul

Beauty in Diversity
I wrote a poem when I died... Another at my birth. A brand-new sonnet when I cried. And again when there was mirth. A song for my confession... A story for my pain... A painting for depression... And nursery rhymes for rain. My creations live inside my heart. I keep them there in shame. Yet you looked around and saw my art, And smiled all the same.

I wrote a poem
The road behind bares us a backdrop, too many nights find us fractured in our thoughts and the dreamers we once were are far from the two people who stand today. We're broken, mere splinters of our shipwreck past, driftwood on a shore that drowns every time the ocean breathes. The path is littered with slaughtered dreams that didn't bleed. As time and tide wait for no man shall we find it a tragic scene? simply erased with the sunsets demise? No one gets away without a scar and mine speak a road map to chaos and a found hello to you. Mine own scars are fingertips gouged into the sand and faded but salted by tears of the ocean, inerasable by the tide. A soul washed up upon the shore, a road map etched delicately into fine bones. You can trace where I'd been before. All roads lead to your hello. In broken lines and have uttered phrases and one too many empty night. Backdrop of chaos does paint in the darkest colors you could ever imagine . How does it gets so flawed by our own creations and vices my dear? Does it still ring ever so true? The bell rings true whispering distant voices Empty nights are just bottles lined up as dead soldiers We contemplated our own truths and fell victim to our own vices The backdrop is black, no colour beneath skin. Honestly? Where does our downfall begin? Two ships underneath the nightscape past the spark once understood the flame and nothing more . In empty alleys, like cats to prowl, we find our moments, and then bury our thoughts to lay for no others to see. half written papers and half heard conversation the keys of the piano haunt the silence as myself shadows that still remain. Nothing is but a thought and those are like dead flowers laid to waste a reflection of far better times The night crawls to meet the day as it has so many times before. The thought of the minds bottle lay empty upon the table. A fond farewell is but a sugar coated goodbye. And I seldom have minced my words to mask their sting. The page forever bleeds. Pages that lay scattered on a ***** floor Bleeding ink into cracks that will forever more hide the spirit of our souls.

Nightscapes And Broken Dreams. Co Write With Helen
The road behind bares us a backdrop, too many nights find us fractured in our thoughts and the dreamers we once were are far from the two people who stand today. We're broken, mere splinters of our shipwreck past, driftwood on a shore that drowns every time the ocean breathes. The path is littered with slaughtered dreams that didn't bleed. As time and tide wait for no man shall we find it a tragic scene? simply erased with the sunsets demise? No one gets away without a scar and mine speak a road map to chaos and a found hello to you. Mine own scars are fingertips gouged into the sand and faded but salted by tears of the ocean, inerasable by the tide. A soul washed up upon the shore, a road map etched delicately into fine bones. You can trace where I'd been before. All roads lead to your hello. In broken lines and have uttered phrases and one too many empty night.

Static, memories Emanating, separating   The postcard- perfect Still life speaks From its storied past. Invisible, to drift Among   The florid aphorisms, Ending in Deleterious debris, Aftermath of The inevitable. Empty room, echo hollow Tabula rasa - Carpet clean, quite candid in it's Return to callow. Consciousness athirst, Absorbing phenomena Effervesce, inquisitive Ideas foment, Sealed inside a question. The what - Against the narrow Scarcity, And fatigue of should. A tender malleable Youth, Betrayed, under An assumed decorum - Residue of truth, Flattened emotion Privations of a self Unheard; Misplaced affirmation, Buried pathologies   In architecture Fear manifests symbolic. Harboring apathy The lunacy of pious Pedigree, Import contagion, Fetters of benignity Doubt and indecision   Into ****** Cognizance, Fallow spirits Seep fumes of decay, Credulity bleeds a human stain. Social edifice, inoculated   Heirs of neurosis; Palpable, sensual pain And transience, though Tacit - remain, Our haunted history, The blind hyperbole, Maudlin Forbearance, this haven, A portrait Of immaculate condition, Nurtured with precision Under sterling pretense. Provincial domicile - House beautiful, Savage irony - Unseen treasure Innocence unabridged, Faces, tiny creations; Compliant vessels Wounded,   While modernism murmurs   Its promise. Brave New World, In a late model sedan, Domestic ranch on a Corner lot, Suburban natives, Silence means security. The misunderstood Speak louder - Consumerism beneath     Unvarnished ambition, Never could Repair the brokenness within... © 2011 & 2018 W. S. Warner

we live in times when words have lost their meaning they only serve to fill some soundbite gaps between faces of popstars, politicians, presidential candidates, maybe some refugees, victims of crimes and natural catastrophes and more sensational media creations flooding our lives with unrelenting hype unless you push the button that brings quiet to your life   and you find time to reconsider what it might be  exactly you desire to achieve in the short time we are allotted in this world you will discover it is not the senseless media blather but some coherent thoughts turned into words becoming deeds enacting change leading to bold decisions think for yourself and don’t let others think for you then speak your thoughts in words like others cannot do

Accidents and Mistakes
The world is small even heaven isn't big but an uncreated Word is, an expression of love and promise! The tale of the beginning the tale of the end without the ending. Soon God said it 'Qun' be bang it couldn't be bigger indeed. Everything small and big the complete creations panache came to be so big! The body is small the soul came in the front and every soul big banged in one go. All heard the same Word it was only one that sets the tone for the first to the last so sweet it took everyone’s heart! The death wouldn’t touch the soul that already died but couldn’t die. Revived there and then instantly, hearing the 'Qun' the uncreated melody! Crooned up even through the dead-end surged up to the other side of the black hole. Like a waxing Moon passed over, crossing the asleep body in the shadow, yet in the making! Unable to resist it, the first big bang didn’t happen amidst the material entity not in the star, milky way or in the galaxy. Adam was yet to be in the body the physical ear was yet to hear it! Unlike the tuned in abyss soul there that harks and the clouds rise and rain only to revert back to the sea showering the shallow terraqueous body. He said ‘Qun’ again and the first physical big bang on the matter takes place in Fathima’s joint interlacing her live soul and pre-design body. It cuts through the irrational pi in between the soul and body so that gel in melody! With pure love without a condition that shall keep up perpetuating the body! Nature that was yet to be, gets a mirror in its entirety and bangs big hearing an echo of ‘Qun’ be, says the Almighty it comes to be and shall perish only to be an eternal body!

Qun: Love is Unconditional
The world is small even heaven isn't big but an uncreated Word is, an expression of love and promise! The tale of the beginning the tale of the end without the ending. Soon God said it 'Qun' be bang it couldn't be bigger indeed. Everything small and big the complete creations panache came to be so big! The body is small the soul came in the front and every soul big banged in one go.

Beauty vs beast The petals of the rose Draw all the attention away from the thorns It is fascinating how a single flower can be so beautiful Yet contain a hint of ugliness in it to Just like the peacock Which has a million stunning feathers on its tail Drawing attention away from its feet It saddens the peacock itself When it compares its beauty to the deformity it contains Nothing is perfect in this world Dont expect it to be If these beautiful creations contain imperfection Remember somewhere we are also flawed

Beauty vs Beast
the words used to flow like silk through my fingertips i used to know exactly how to weave them make them fall into tapestries, hang them from walls emblazoned with unadulterated innocence. it wasn't until you asked to look at my creations that i realised sunlight could be so damaging my words felt frivolous under your scathing gaze and they stuttered, crumbled. my tapestries fell. now they're dust and i'm on my knees, crawling grasping fistfuls that seep through my hands you can't write about something you can't feel and now i can't feel anything. this is the last poem i'll write about you.

old art.
Most find the crash to be a nuisance Not me. I find an unusual serenity in the calamity. An undeniable calm in the chaos. As for the flash Well it adds a little mystery To the life I live full of misery. Rain runs down windows Replicating the tears down my face. Reminding me I'm not alone In this desolate place. Thunderstorms are therapy Designed to drown out our thoughts And provide inspiration For artistic creations

We were boys, once. Our mother liked to dress us in tailored suits and leather shoes. Every Sunday morning. Ready bright and early for mass at 11. We'd sit in the classroom at the back of the old church hall. After mass. After the chatter of voices hushed down to whispers; virtuous gossip. Our teacher fed us images of hellfire and brimstone. *** and sin. Satan in a red cape and Halloween horns. He didn't always look like that. Oh, no. Mother said that he'd come out all dressed in a suit like mine. He'd be handsome! His voice would be a choir of one billion ****** souls and once you'd hear it, you'd never want it to stop. In my eight-year-old mind, I wondered what he did and what he felt when his own father cursed his name. Did he stare at his dad with his thousand-eyes? Did he protest? Did he laugh as he fell? In a cascade of feathers and blood. Maybe he was better off without him. He'd spend the rest of eternity trying to prove his father wrong. That he was worthy of his love: That he would be the only son to grieve for the mistake of humanity. The holy adversary. The one who would shout his love for The Lord until his throat cracked dry and his chest ached. He, who could see the suffering of his father's own creations. He, who tempted Eve and proved God wrong and we were flawed from the very beginning. Did he watch Eve eat the apple and savor every bite? He loved his father. Did he deserve it? I stopped going to church on my eighteenth birthday. What kind of parent would **** one son and praise the other? Who would let one son be nailed to a board and the other to rot in flames? Even as a child, I knew. Through every slap, scold and bruise. I would never bow.

I am nature I am open and wild and free I am the wind rushing down canyons and the hollering in banyans I am a bird that sings I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things I am civilization. The trapped, fluorescent lighting in a library basement. The cake walks and small talks and forced conversation. I am the beeps and hums and dirt on bums. I’m the faraway cell phone that rings. I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things. I am exuberance A child giggling loud sounds of joy Puzzle completers and Christmas toys Smiles and laughs and leaves of grass The casino machine that dings I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things I am anger. Tears, scares, and not fighting fair. I am the red in your eyes as you cry. I am a ghoul that comes out in the night. I am the cut that won’t cease to sting. I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things. I am ideas Originality through and through Creations of my own evolve in my mind Great sinewy thoughts searching for actions to bind Mister Cleans and Daedalus wings I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things I am silence. Quiet. Tight. Composure. Open. Weary. Closure. I am the stillness of being. I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things.* I am alive I set Rube Goldberg machines into action I contemplate, gravitate, and try not to hate I breathe and I heave and I believe I use my eyes to see I am molecules upon cells upon bones against things I am dead. I’m a sideshow reflection of the man I could be. I am lazy cold and clammy. Hopefully I can get my heart beating again. Then I could be me, molecules upon cells upon bones against things

*Man and woman, though different Are equal in the eyes of God. inexplicable though true but still Unacceptable for some perhaps Man is the highest of all creations Woman is the most sublime of all Ideals. God made for a man a throne, for a woman an altar. the throne exalts, The altar sanctifies. Man is the brain. woman is the heart. The brain fabricates light while The heart produces love. light fecunds, Love resuscitates. Man is the code. Woman is the gospel. The code corrects As the gospel perfects. Man is the genius while Woman is the angel. The genius is undefinable And the angel is immeasurable. Man is strong in reason but woman is invincible in her tears. Reason convinces the most stubborn Just as tears soften the hardest of mortals. Man is the ocean And the woman is the lake. The ocean has it's pearls that adorn; The lake has its poems that dazzle.* ***Man stands where the earth ends; And woman where heaven begins.***

For my 11th birthday I bought myself the prettiest gift. A paintbrush. It was a shiny silver. When I used it for the first time, I felt relieved. The burdens fell off my shoulders onto my wrists. I created the most beautiful crimson artworks. I packed my burdens into fine lines, drawing the red of their weight. I am an artist. I am covered in my creations, from my wrists to my thighs. Now, forever.

I'm not a writer... Or anything resembling that I am just me... Sharing my words picked out from life's hat I can't find the most accurate to say So letters I dabble in various permutations Layers of letters turn into words and come to play Could call them journals, these text-laden creations But I'm not a writer... Or anything resembling that I am just me... Penning the words picked out of life's hat I'm not a poet... Or anything mimicking that I am just me... Relating experiences out of life's hat I can't conjure poems... About anything or everything Can't use my words to incite or inspire These are just ideas and I just like rhyming They are just experiences that fuel my fire But I'm not a poet... Or anything mimicking that I am just me...  Spouting rhymes out of life's hat I'm not an artist... Or anything pretending to be that I am just me... Drawing scenes from life's hat I can't sketch a portrait with a simple pencil Can't put together an installation and call it art I can paint fairly well; of which I have done several I can draw out emotions and depictions from the heart But I'm not an artist... Or anything pretending to be that I am just me... Producing paintings out of life's hat I'm not a musician.. Or anything fantastic like that I am just me... Playing melodies from life's hat I don't have the quality of voice to match that of a crooner I can't play instruments that could earn a place in a band I can sing in key without the help of a tuner I enjoy music best with a guitar in my hands But I'm not a musician.. Or anything fantastic like that I am just me... Singing songs from life's hat I'm not a writer, poet, musician or an artist... I do a little of everything, not excelling at any one title Although I wish to have everything clenched in one fist All I ever really do is just dabble....

I wish I could run with you in your silent packs   I have done my share of howling a prisoner of this sluggish, two legged species that cannot chase down prey or take flight, without the crafted creations of others, I can, if I wade warily through waves of wind, and time, dance with you, on moon grazed prairies   but only until the sun cracks the dawn and exposes me, for the vain actor I am

synergy in the mist of creations' breath... multitudes croaking so loudly drowning in eventide dew, all the wind's timbre is hushed; overcome by earth’s communing symphony, creations’ living pulsing thrum.. alone in a crowd proclaiming the glory of now... whelmed, and i wishing i were a frog, and unalone in the throng maybe evolution as this— is reversing... ouroboros     i need to search for an intimate kiss metamorphosis, another incarnation that will turn me    back into a frog— a speck of stardust in a sky full of stars seems better than feeling like ashes a burned out candle muted by the gypsy choir *the call of the wild sung in the wind* wild is the wind © march 2016

Seeking for a funky cigarette . The taste of guilt and temptation feels so good in my lungs. A glass of red wine to compliment my daze . Now I'm buzz n I thank the white rabbit for coming to my aid. I confess I'm playing my hand without looking at my cards . The creations of my mind make sense only to me. I'm slowly unlocking the convenient of my thoughts. I want to taste the colors of the world but I want share the taste . Many don't have the anger I have .

All the stars as one in unison Make up the galaxy we're in, Floating around a white celestial Being on this planetary ship. We'll wind up in the "path of Gods," A self-made volunteer appears with an "Informative" plan to share "love's book," To speak of "things we'll find on this journey," No future planned stone can be pre-overlooked. And in the skies float the particles That started out light years away Have finally made their touchdown, Leaving the express universal highway A rocky chunk of history found it's way to town. A story that is so ancient, so in tune with time, That it even has developed a star-struck Lightning fire in the backyard of galactic life, And what sprouted from the ashy rubble is us, Eyes hands and feet and all to experience, To explore the many creations of natural love.

I should know how far beautiful I am, but also be closest to the fact. _I am beauty in the words I speak,_ _I am beauty amongst beautiful people I meet,_ _I am beauty as the first to choose peace,_ _I am beauty to smile brighter when I'm weak,_ _I am beauty for it all resides in me,_ _I am beauty as a people of my land,_ _I am beauty as the many of ocean sands,_ _I am beauty for being proud of who I am,_ _I am beauty in the can't that I choose to can,_ _I am beauty of the moments I make,_ _I am beauty in the creations I shape,_ _I am beauty as I sleep and wake,_ _I am beauty for the many mercies and sake,_ _I am beauty because I see myself as great,_ __I am truly beautiful.__

I am beauty
Skin as white as snow Her heart, ice cold Everyone looked at her in fear She decided that she couldn’t stay here Like the wind, She fled In the blizzard, She disappeared Everything she saw; Everything she touched Froze in its place Glowed as she stayed Each creation, different each time Not one in itself was the same All her creations were just like her: A snowflake: just as unique.
