The sky above me, closed in as the dark, ominous yet fascinating rainclouds have driven near, gathering together in a council. As it begins to drizzle, soft, warm and little raindrops, fall in line, gently, carelessly hitting the earth, moistening it in their line. Once in a while, as the rain gains its strengh, hitting the ground below with more speed and roughlessness in their action, Rays of the purest light, sent by the sun as it shines above the darkening sky, a sensation for ones optic nerv, a sensation for the eye, make it through and let this scene shine further more. Graceful drops, carrried and distorted by the majestic wind, Create a lovely melody on my window, as they one by one fly into it. Now as the soil is fertilised, life will surely grow from the sunlight. Alike the raindrops are carried by the wind, my mind engages with this scene, lets me fall in love with this beautiful earth. A little rain shall not be the cause of sadness, as it truly is a reminder of the moments of love wich it makes easier to determine. So I keep my gaze out of the window and enjoy the weather Until then, the sky clears up and the sun shines again. ~ Umi

Whereabout of the heart, where might it be ? When fury is a feeling which engages your senses, your mind and your soul in a raging outburst of negativity expressed in adrenaline, Everything seems to be one sided, a loop which only fuels your anger with thoughts of unpleasant, disturbing annoyances, making it harder Harder to resist, until alike a super nova, you explode in a viscious rampage with knows no escape, so, where is the heart ? Where is it? A tantrum might be encouraged to grow in size if it's revenge you seek, desire, want to live for to make it expire, with violent passion, Mercy or compassion, forgiveness and simpathy may be forgotten, within the depths of your burning soul, lit ablaze solely by hatred, You may lose your mind, oh beauty of a living existence, becoming alike a lily of murderous intent, spiteful, yet elegant and wonderful, A shivering star, ready to take its opponent down with itself while destroying what used to be so precious, unique and simply sweet, Blemishing the unconscious without thinking of patience or the chance to calm this nuclear meltdown, unfolding in tragedy for us, The pure light of your praying palms might help in this regard, Because his remembrance is what makes furious hearts become calm. ~ Umi

Fit of rage
Two fine films: The Lost City and Blood Diamond. I joined Blood Diamond during a village massacre and said to my wife A gun in every home. Those devils would think twice before razing the village and seizing the boys. A well-regulated militia. The local militia the most interesting moment in a strong film with motive (economic, emotional), action (chases,       fights) and a **** sexless love story. Use of violence by the local militia for a limited purpose: protect the       community, the young from the janjaweed. The crop from the **** Limited scope and defensive posture but armed and coordinated, cooperative, the men (and the women)       side by side. Warriors at the gate, you will not run, you will not bargain. Just violence = limited scope, defensive posture. Great music. Cuba, Africa. The Lost City, when the communists tell the club owner under threat       of violence No saxophones in the band. The saxophone! Invented by a Belgian--Look what the Belgians are doing in the       Congo! When the state's violence is turned against the citizenry for non-violent acts. This quiet neighborhood, July, undergirded by violence, force. That's a given-- any farmer, custodian, EMT will tell you that. Without just violence Gandhi's scope, and King's, might be vanishingly limited, negligible (but not non-existent)?                                                        Regarding King the matter is simple -- he was non-violent but dependent upon federal force to counter the South's violence. No doubt without the larger force, the non-violent would be       overwhelmed by southern violence. Here, non-violence was a tactic, not an ethic. Gandhi, however, had no violent partner to protect him from the       British. Or did he? 1. There was the potential violence of the population, which Gandhi     restrained but could release which the British feared, and 2. It was the restrained (limited scope) violence of the British that     allowed Gandhi to exist rather than be extinguished--this restraint     was a (British) cultural imperative (limited scope) as well as     emanating from Britain's view of India as a protectorate and     valued citizen of the United Kingdom (defensive posture). What about violence or threat of violence to compel compliance with       community as in mortgage foreclosure, driving without license, drug possession. Perhaps it is necessary violence to maintain orderly commerce, the       common space, and preempt bad behaviors associated with       otherwise neutral, private acts. The defensive posture is the common good; the limited scope is       forgoing deadly force. But the citizen, too, must maintain a disciplined, armed non-violence, in case the state (the janjaweed) engages in an unjust, autoimmune       violence. Hence, a gun in every home.

eye did.   As my prejudices expected, the odd assortment of "characters"were all present and not to be unaccounted for...a romantic comedy on a good Friday, attracts the believers, the well wishers, the ones who think if only the world was.. and I was not re or so tired of life, unemployed, lonely, damaged in some manner of being... not too many young, just a few... theater darkness is a masque, with a risqué chance of oh no, I've been witnessed by the non-believers. the infirm with their mobile caretakers and paraphernalia were there.  Odd couples, were there.  If there was one unifying common characteristic, I selected this one.  We all needed haircuts. eye don't know why but it made me think about going to get one's haircut, and the rituals that requires....and it is and is not a bit like being in a almost totally private world inpublic, where you, the individual and some outside force majeure, hairdresser, movie screen engages and temporarily transforms you.  That is why, I, went to the movies on a Friday afternoon, to be transformed and not reformed, in public, in private...

Who goes to an early afternoon movie on a Friday?
Chance is being in the right place at the right time, coinciding with the orbit of another searching the aspirations that you to seek. A connection needs attention, a compliment, a smile, an enquiry of mutual interest that engages instantly. The abdication of convenient norms, a shift in behaviour, adopting a new travel direction. It requires no discrimination, but an open welcoming mind, conjoining parallel convergence, Meeting. © Pagan Paul (2018)

Chance Meeting
Dear life, what is it that makes you take on a journey which always leads towards an unavoidable, devestating yet resenting death ? Since I cannot understand it fully I wander upon this world without finding any clear answers to satisfy the curiousity my heart bears. In the realm of dreams I find rest, as my mind engages into this illusion and frees me from this reality for as long as my body pleases. Awakened by loitering darkness, these questions are repeating themselves on a path of recurrance, without decreasing in strengh. As my breath dies while feeling the agony, flames of hatred are seeping through my fragile, delicate existence, giving energy. Rumbling, boiling in sadness I tell myself that anyone's forgiveness is not neccesary, losing control over this riot of pure fury without heart. Looking back a thousand times, it remains as my very best choice. Letting these emotions race, rage and rampage uncontrollably Whilst losing ones self within a lunatic laughter to release pressure I cannot stop these tears, pitying the past long gone rolling down my cheeks, moistening the very soil I am growing on, as a pure lily Until the moment comes in which my body exhausts itself and allows me to enter the world of dreams, where despair fades into happiness. Until the sun rises once again ~ Umi

Pure Lunacy
All along that grey draped zig-zagging shoreline The men sat or stood in resolute silence Each trying to reach back into minds Scrambled like eggs by the fear of impending violence Soon the hard faced men will open the gates As the race will start as hearts will change pace Then by push and twist they load like cattle Into great grey hulking hearse's barely floating Plunging through grey roiling seas toward thunder Echoing across the channel quotation marks of the battle That rages ,engages not turning ÷ripping out pages of history When the water turns red punctuated by the floating dead.... ........The question marks and periods Exclamation marks in the book thats still being written ...         ......to what end? That is what makes any plot a vagrant thought With a premise being an unresolved mystery Such are ..... The vagaries of the ever repeating chapters of human history!

Resolute silence
A forest adventure-we didn't plan it that way at all, the call of the wild prompted us, is all I can now guess hand in hand in to the woods we ventured like two possessed, magical, it felt, we soon disappeared, from the eyes of curious intruders. erogenous scent of damp earth, after the first sprinkling of monsoon clouds, pepped up our interest in hunting mushrooms popping up everywhere, like fragments of white clouds descended, we pulled out, egg shaped mushrooms that came in to our view the frenzy we fell in to,  possessed us in total, after all we we are also young and hot blooded, We competed like hounds in hot pursuit, ran, collided with each other, fell down, with a gentle thud, upon each other. She did lay flat, face down on my chest, I smelt,musk on her neck a slow intoxicant and mushrooms hidden in her both armpits, which I pursued and found out,we were getting hot, in pursuit of each other's secrets. the world, we had forgotten completely for long!! We didn't see evening light melt and darkness spread stealthily over the woods that engages the robust body of the night, from the rendezvous, of these secret lovers, we sneaked out and saw lighted torches, approach us from all four directions. they zeroed in on us,"Who goes there?" a harsh voice asked, "This, do you know, is the holy grove, of mother goddess, strictly  watched for not to be get desecrated by people who seek some sort of adventure, such an act never goes unpunished, we'll search you and find what you did" We held out mushrooms before them, and I saw each face turning  a lotus! "where did you get this,? Oh! so much!, Those are so rare and any one is able to pluck it, only if mother goddess is pleased" And then we realized this, in that forbidden sacred wood, between us a miracle has happened! that pleased the mother goddess of the woods,  the blessed presence, aren't we then  the chosen ones? ,

Have you ever had a fantasy boyfriend? The kind that thinks that you’re A couple Despite the fact that You don’t have their cell number Nor their name, often You never had *** or traded spit They don’t know where you live They, in fact, know nothing about you A little laughter shared Perhaps A momentary giggle waiting for the bathroom door to open And bam! Like Zeus. Without your ever knowing, you are a team. A team that never engages but together none the less. Solid. Ride or Die. Then one day You have an ugly break up. You never saw it coming What did you do, you wonder? He won’t speak to me! He’s mad. Filled with resentment. His eyes are on fire. I am hated. He will show up the next time we see one another with a woman And that’s when you finally know for certain You just had a Fantasy Boyfriend How did you rupture? It’s an eerie realization. Like understanding in an instant that neither are you the ventriloquist nor the dummy But somehow you go back into the box. Better still, have you ever encountered the sub-species Fantasy Bad Boyfriend? Or Fantasy Abusive Bad Boyfriend? They are perhaps the worst of the lot, naturally. They don’t call. They date other women. They sit in their living rooms assured that you’re waiting at their front door. In the rain. With flowers. Over and over the bell, ring though it might It pleads on your behalf. And yet they will not answer And I was not standing there. I was at the beach watching the rain fall upon on the water. You never called so when they disappear For Days And return unannounced You’re just now finding out that there are serious cracks in your relationship. They used you They played with your heart They apologize for the treatment of which you are so very undeserving They never wanted you. Yet you never spoke. Never popped over with Flowers Nor cookies! Never sat in your car waiting You were out town the entire Time. You two did see a movie once. That is true. But now you’re over. And he’s moved on. And suggests with his absence? that you do the same. You can tell. Some days your paths cross. He stands still as Jesus At the Hollywood Farmer’s Market. With his wife and new baby Or Dog. She looks at you with suspect eyes while you think about the tomatoes. Someone wags their tail and hopefully they will quickly move along en famille. You hold your tomato plants and shudder. You walk over to the double blossom peppermint tulips. Tight little babies ready to unfurl. The ones you never gave him.

Faith And Obedience Engages
Watch me as I unwrap... passionate, In the drench of our rain..... And night falls... A silent murmur Where the heart pauses, A malachite shadow Penetrates fire, Burning A flame's fierce lick Beneath pulse... Somewhere.... His smile touches Warming the red sea of my heart Pulsating ripples, spread Soliloquies upon my skin Orated in Southern sighs... Slowly... Desire engages, ******* hardening Under tongue's brush; Moist ripe, swollen folds Tempt his lips to kiss my yielding Where breath catches, And I ... smolder within each touch... Drenched.. My scent quivers languor, Rhapsodic, Drowning pools, orchid petaled Finger parted... tender; Under sweet seduction, Stirring the supple bloom, Tasting the restless currents That throb through my milky sea... Small moans... Electric blue hangs the air.. Primal lust etching curves, Tracing dewy flesh, Heating Skin on skin, ****** scent….arousing, Tongue brushed hardness Between dampened lips... Hot.... The scorching sear... stigmata Sin licks along thighs, Essence, dripping, S W E E T Sensory overload, Breaking my binds... Feed... My appetite, I am.. lashes soft, licking thoughts No words No words... Just.... Feed the need that overwhelms, Grow inside me, Fill me once again.......

And Night Falls:
Glory to craftsmanship That endures the wrath of time Artisans vanish one by one As is Nature's custom But their inner beauty Remains in their labored art. A masterful stroke of hand Guided by divine volition Engages thought's flight To spheres unknown Where true art gives birth To creativity's genius. Art imparts mystical light Upon envisioned designs Shaped by hand, heart and spirit A poem, a painting, a silver cup Is brought to life For the pure joy of creation. O' masters of the wind Hearken the hopes of craftsmen And steer their zing heavenward They are the symbol of plastic arts A manifestation of wizardry Toiling in labyrinth of formation.

Craftsmanship
Heart’s eyes are more dominant than our eyes It can gaze far-flung beyond the skies Where the heaven lies… Where the Angel stays Where the Torrent  engages in recreations Where the eternal bird chants Where the heavenly rose shows its salsa Where the leaves making love with each other crafts a fascinating musica Where the sun can’t go moon can’t smile Oh heart! Oh heart! Take me, Take me Bear me aloft, Bear me aloft Let me fly on your eternal wings that can fly an infinite mile……. HUDA

Eterno salsa and Musica...
Her syllogisms repose trust in her adept beleaguering of unworthy opponents. Constantly in a state of lassitude for this desultory, inure world of the insouciant youth which dwells upon it's cathartic terrain, she engages not in lachrymose nor is she crestfallen for the hope of romance and it's everlasting ineffability. She is a fugacious moment of frisson embodied in a human form; a juxtaposition of the serendipitous moments that ever constantly come one after the other in a fickle wheel of steep highs and deep lows. All her life, this girl will lilt through the crossroads of her obstacles and show the world the efflorescence of her beauty. Hush don't speak lest you miss hearing the mellifluous music of her voice of fail to hear the lagniappe that is her name. She is the cynosure of human attention, the goddess and we are but her humble servants. She is innocence most rare, love most coveted. She is infinite. She is peace.

With no argument I think most people agree With the adage stating that, "you are what you eat" But it's possible there's information not known Having equal importance or maybe more so All the nutrients eaten; We intake our food It will travel through digestive tract once consumed Same can also be said of our actions and thoughts They're the building blocks making up all that we are Brains are not like a rigid or fixed type machine An old dog and new tricks go together it seems Our plasticity will let us both change and shift It makes pathways; New neural links over the rifts These connections might possibly benefit us But this same mechanism can also do stuff With a negative scope, the outlook and belief We might think we're no good; Our lives filled with much grief If we're constantly saying things inside our heads Like self-doubting, self-loathing and feelings of dread Then our brain will re-wire to fit this outlook Once ensconced in this spectrum; Not easily shook The same way that a person engages with time Like activity, also is true with the mind A small change in the way that we look at ourselves The new thoughts and beliefs in our mind start to meld With the make-up within that each one of us holds Self-beliefs and self-doubts from our birth till we're old Like a painter with ink; Our brush never is dry We are always creating what's in our mind's eye So don't hinder yourself with a picture that's bleak Just believe in yourself and go get what you seek You are capable of so much more than you know All it takes is belief and in time it will show

Trust in Faith It's raining and the sun has returned home although I am by myself, yet I am not alone mind engages intellect, with time to consider how this heart of mine, has grown so bitter Not long ago, reflections of the past were a delight then in a brief moment, my happiness took flight once having a life with meaning, love and security now with remorse and desire, for a heart with purity Continuing to pursue life normally, while anxieties drown the mind no matter what I might do, any sense of happiness seems confined confused with mixed emotions, and knowing that they are both true yet despite my conflict, still mustering the will to tell her, I love you With each and every passing day, I look forward to behold once again to greet those yesterdays, those yesterdays of old but those yesterdays are buried, the fear of the future takes hold all of what now remains, are those few tomorrows left to unfold Worries must stem from this lack of control, how not to consider thinking of how few years are left to live, could anyone not be bitter the unknown of what the rest of your life will bring, an awesome fear when you advance in years, only then does it become all too clear Times passes, the body ages, memories flounder, and reality sets in maybe tomorrow the mail will arrive, addressed to: The Next of Kin finding yourself in an emotional upheaval, there is but one thing to do forage deep down inside, and uncover your faith, your only rescue Faith will give you the strength, it will guide you to trust in the One above fears of the future and of the unknown, disappear in this world called love experiencing midlife crisis, something you can and will successfully overcome but first never stop searching, trusting in G-d, and to depression never succumb

Is a happy accident predictable? Could I prophecy that red is romance And that we'll meet in the Tunnel-of-Love That is part of London's skeleton? Will the Central Line tie us up, When happiness is accidental, Like a red ribbon following 'destiny'? Am I able to sit on full buses Without a new fated friend sitting On that one empty seat? Dearest Who-Knows-Who Will I trip and drown you in tea And stain your ears with words; Will it be the start of a beautiful Work-but-never-social relationship? Can I foresee the strike of chance that Has two hands reaching for the same Bottle of milk only to then be locked Into a battle of politeness with my Defeat being an exchange of dairy for Kind ears? Or is our shared liquid desire Made by a patient and the soon to be Doctor in, say, seven accidents time? Perhaps a publisher engages in this war Of intrinsic social conduct, perhaps my poetry Is destined for pages because of this bottle, Perhaps I become a helping hand. Perhaps perhaps perhaps. Not all of this is an exercise in futility; I look out from my window and see a city Filled with cracked pavements or missed trains Or shared taxis or dropped books or...or.... Or, perhaps, that ever so unpredictable, Wonderful, accidental serendipity.

Serendipity
nefarious nested newfound minds gather in dim-lit bedroom shining with love. taking seconds from an extended time frame. what eludes to harm done comes from adultration of a vision - friendship. it's been said, no loyalty with dope fiend drugdrugsdrug addicts. when under the greensmoke light of a cracked window and wheezing-- OH the wheezing-- of youth taking extra time to become tomorrow's electronic future. it's gonna be different than yester-year, dear. 20% of our feeble country engages indulges in this ancient sacredity &as; for you, my dear ones, sitting in the dark, jeopardy, saw IV, daft's harderbetterfasterstronger --"i've never seen so many colours!" my heart calls as yours does, for a future we're waking up to. we're not violent vicious vile backstabbing cold-mongers. if anything, laughing at them. quoting movies, queueing memories. preparing for world dissolution. i hate the bane too, kids, but we know who we are.

Murmured voices break the silence To my right a cute couple clink their wine glasses together in a celebratory toast. Off to the left, an older gentleman engages an old-ish lady in whispered conversation. I’m guessing he’s whispering sweet nothings to his bride. The well dressed young man standing at the bar survey’s the crowd, looking restless. He seems to be waiting for… Ah, that beautiful girl that just walked in. Her eyes light up, his face breaks into a big smile. I love the ambience of this old place. Red carpets, dim lights, candles flickering in every direction. My time here is almost done. I only need some sugar for this last cup of coffee.

My Last Cup of Coffee
Anger becomes me, Rage engages my fits . Such unholy acts transpire through me. Blood vesicles are visible on my illuminant skin. Breath becomes heavy, breath grows slow. Tears puff in my eyes. Lost, is my mind, Solace is solitary. To me it's all the same, Solace to anger and, anger to pain. Rage grows old, Smiles become unholy, Tears are solitary. Anger, Anger, Anger.

Anger
Are we to wither away, say goodbye to the remote possibility of everything or the acceptance of nothing, damaged as we are from life and what it has thrown at us and how we have adapted to it, where is the strength we thought nothing of when we were young – everything was possible, anything could be overcome. Now it is harder to start from the beginning to rise from the detritus that has left its smudge on this human plane, to  feel warmth from one’s own heart, passions that used to run deep are locked away lost from the moment, will they ever return or are they buried from this reality – what is this reality? Pure and without stimulus our bodies weak from over indulgence become but empty vessels  for our pain to adhere to, but yet exists this mind of memories that fail to disappear. These very memories fight with the functionality that we accept as our living life mixed with dreams and our experiences laid bare to improve upon the quality of our anger, frustration, pleasure and happiness that engages us again, enabling us the advantage to overcome our apathy and  withstand hardship and discomfort, both  mentally and  physically. And once again we shout from the highest imagined ground our intentions and with our determination set to turbo drive, we move out on to the superhighway of our existence, battling  our demons to achieve our presupposed goals, is this living? Or merely homage to a bygone set of loosely interpreted doctrine absorbed from our greater consciences. Individuality what has this become? – A freedom to define ones uniqueness? Is it truly accepted or is it frowned  upon, an illusion perhaps, to be held high then massaged by ego, manipulated by the wannabees and dismissed by the pseudo intellectuals for their contrived  ill-gotten gains. Or is it puerile credo that mutates in to a complex melange of all things material, a substitute for the happiness that existed in a previous incarnation of existence, without doubt a causal effect imploding,  oblivious to the damage that is caused by the ignorance of consideration and distillation of emotion from love, to the banality of acceptance. Once again the circle is circumvented  and the cycle is begun in earnest until the finality of death is welcomed unto the midst of longing from the soul, in repose before its journey to dance amongst the cosmos.

Is This A Question of Age?
Are we to wither away, say goodbye to the remote possibility of everything or the acceptance of nothing, damaged as we are from life and what it has thrown at us and how we have adapted to it, where is the strength we thought nothing of when we were young – everything was possible, anything could be overcome.

There are many of them -- Life as it happens gets recorded in my hard disc of a brain (I'm always in 'save by default' mode) -- some are like harmless, even pleasant, butterflies some like stinging bees I store them all in cages in the posterior of my mind even as the Present engages me I often catch snatches of sounds of buzzing, or, of the flutter of wings never allowing myself to get a full blast of them (I don't usually dwell in the past, you see, it's the future that causes worry) except in occasional moments of mental peace when I let the cages open and they swarm into my head - the bees and butterflies - diffusing colour into my monochrome mind making every bit of it bloom alive -- it's like listening to old cassettes you know dusty, old cassettes that were lying in some drawer, locked away; like turning the pages of a novel read long ago, getting re-introduced to its characters -- and a gamut of feelings rushes through you...
