"expectancy" poems
I like immigrants, immigration. Legal immigration, Jane passionately corrects. Actually my goal is a borderless world. Gathering the neighborhood like family. The men discuss sterilizing welfare mothers. I say You're working       around the edges, humanity has exceeded the carrying capacity of the planet, even those with jobs. And spouses. And houses. Yet it's an idyll of an early summer evening, new cut grass, two baseball teams of children playing in it. Safe from Pakistan. News photos of Muslim refugees, women in blue robes, biblically carrying children away from holocaust. The fundamentalist army not far behind, beheading sinners, sure in its righteousness as the Holy Roman Empire. Somehow Joel Osteen the evangelist comes up while talking about how the Catholic Church is irrelevant in North       America, even Latin America and Africa are going evangelical. Izzi likes Osteen, awesome extemporaneous speaker, no teleprompter, up from bootstraps message. My wife says he's probably Jewish. Fortunately no one claims the Holocaust never happened or slavery       was voluntary. What is the carrying capacity of the planet? In China is it each couple or each adult that gets one offspring? As life expectancy and standards rise, family size diminishes. We draw together into greener, tighter cities. The children of three monotheistic religions, atheists and agnostics play in city streets, work farm fields, explore forests, deserts,       grasslands, space. Two ancient female poets: Enheduanna and Sappho are a revelation. The clarity of their complaints: lost lover, lost city.

We talked about fun A night of one and one Two adults out dating Not a lady-in-waiting. Two people holding hands, We didn’t have any plans Not saying words like never And always and forever. It’s an unwritten verbal contract With just the one signature. The expectancy of longevity Is more than a bit premature. It is important to recognize it When it’s all about fun and games. It keeps temperature from rising And avoids the calling of names. Then it all got turned around And quite suddenly I found There were rules for me to obey Like staying out too late in the day And things I had to do with you If I wanted to demonstrate I was true. It was no longer important to you It was not enough just loving you. It’s an unwritten verbal contract With just the one signature. The expectancy of longevity Is more than a bit premature. I am a prisoner in your heart When did my sentence start? How long will I have to serve? How did you get the nerve To change a delightful love affair Into something that would scare? Sorry, I have to call a halt You know it’s all your fault. It is important to recognize it When it’s all about fun and games. It keeps temperature from rising And avoids the calling of names. We only had a few short dates We barely made it to third base And yet the thing is totally shattered. You’re out looking at china patterns. There were no promises ever made. I do not mean to be throwing shade But this is not the thing I agreed upon Whatever we once had is now gone. It’s an unwritten verbal contract With just the one signature. The expectancy of longevity Is more than a bit premature. It is important to recognize it When it’s all about fun and games. It keeps temperature from rising And avoids the calling of names.

Today. I give up. I got up to you, I climbed all the stairs of the seven storeys, until I got there, where I forsook the costume and the mask, the desire and the expectancy. I left them all neatly folded at the door. You will find them in the morning when you will wake up and you will leave sleepy for the office. You probably won't put them into consideration. You'll step over "i miss you", over "i'd love to", and you''ll hit the little"why" in its belly while he slowly pulls your sleeve. Don't worry, I am better now. I forgot about the dimples and the mole. How does your voice sound? Your eyes... are they green or brown? That yellow t-shirt, that plaid shirt... I do not even care if you will see the pile waiting for you outside the door. It's not like you have not seen my backpack every time we met... Today I give up. Because I am not made of concrete, and that's how the breeze that you carry with you always unbalances me. Because I really know how to ride a bike and I do not need training wheels. Because I am not afraid. Because I have courage. And especially, because I have nothing to do here. It's empty and deserted. It's nothing. Today I quit.

man who wears a hat sits still near the back unmoved by the world or the exposed breast of a statue (brain waves do not discharge through a fedora) tag attached: bald is sanitary oranges have more delicacy raw smelly and afterward singing allons enfants de patrie ding dang **** like that, all frog-ese so we don’t understand chanteused stiff basso profundo to excite to let us see with the clarity of a dream curled with hate set firm, firmer in the arms of a sleeveless girl then slung to sea level white as a leopard’s eye remember its peroxide bathed, bleached inclined on the pillow just at the angle of expectancy without a hat sideward glance and the crippled heels of angels sparking down the hall bulletin: young man willing to wear false beard to ease the pain for all or trumpet blues broken played horizontal touched by seaweed hands in the light of boats (unfurled) slowly and the memory dies slowly half-forgotten, half-remembered halved again slowly only to begin again grim molecules of love

man in the hat
Staring at you from the corner of my eye There are hundreds seated here Still my vision strays across the line These feelings can't be right It's like the moon falling in love with the sun though they are a team, they can never be one Love can't be my might These feelings can't be right Why are you so scared to look me in the eye? I hate it when she looks at you with expectancy in her eyes I feel like destroying the worlds for you These feelings can't be right I know that I'm alone in this street Every part of myself I have left behind Because I know that mystery will always love darkness Though sunshine will be right by her side My wishes just seem so "Unright" I face the truth again - These feelings can't be right Now-a-days I stay away from you When you don't look at me, that is when I look at you When you don't hear me, I have said a thousand times ' I love you ' These feelings can't be right Every morning when I open my eyes And Sunshine strikes this porcelain skin from the skies A carnage of hope is all I visualize I roll down my sleeves to cover the scars My reflection whispers to me 'The mirror never lies' These feelings aren't right I wish I'd be able to stand in front of you And express what I exactly feel about you But I cannot set forth in that venture " The way is suspicious, the result uncertain, perhaps destructive." And if you ever know about this side of me The only thing that will come out of you will be " These feelings can't be right " Beyond the precincts of his eyes Everything seems to be delusional his eyes have the power my foes could **** for - to rip my soul apart every minute Every second of my life And I'm reminded again- These feelings can't be right But now that I've realized These feelings can't be right I am sure That today is the first day of the rest of my life ...

Could the sun be just a hole up there— that if I could leap would enter that breach of light Someone! Throw me a line! Give me a reason There’s never enough in this life of breathing! Someone! Explain why dreams roll a soul toward the cliffs of day Wakes to ache then stuffs its mouth with necessary same Inhale— button shirt—brush hair Exhale— necessary glance in the mirror (yes, still there) A lifetime! in a shallow instant’s stiff clear water (Yeah— still there) in endless caverns of tired eyes above mouth still trying to say SOMETHING! from ever smaller eternities in the glass-flat empty.... Please! Someone explain! this draw of breath one forcing itself upon another's life of beating — Violence in my chest! Why hearts don’t sleep— and I wind up watching again and again—till I am the ****** ...Morning lies in the mists of a humid ***** who moans and sweats and boils her hips— and I wind up watching!? “Will someone please…!" ...and I wind up watching bedspread, bed sore, death bed till you’re breathing easy when she sits and picks her collapsed bouffant damning the makeup that got crushed in the sheets …Morning Lies-- with no expectancy both tired of knowing... *...The Devil lost his balance in my presence one night* ...tired of knowing— THE WILL! THAT WILL! ...walk away or continue to play I could open this screen! watch the world STEP BACK! SLAP FLAT! as trees and dwellings flush like quail to prop their tottering panic against the blue— You—assume composure... compose assumptions Await my next— Move like a spy

Yuletide essays read poorly of spiritual love Save of winter concerns of cold hands and feet But to me my warmth is from within and without From sensitive elements and looks of expectancy All through the year I am loved and brought home by generous arms Holding my tender heart with simple fingers of gentleness At Yule my fears are ones of inability to conform Yet I know that my love will be kept holding small edifices Of temperate thoughts and radiant hopes Lest our love is exposed to the winter blast It has no maintenance worries as we stay locked Deeply embracing through the chill of the night In the mornings there may be white blankets of snow Which drive others to feel  isolation and loneliness But here at Yule as ever our hearts are as one Despite the dragging pressures of the seasonal presence New Year is a triumph of milestone epic Fantasising our minds with future conquerings Especially as most are timid in their push for reality Ours has been honed to supernatural  levels Although we look deeply into bringing these to bear We know from our hearts these are just around the corner Upon the very road we travel

Dear Alyssa, I am trying to say your name, but it is so foreign to me I cannot believe I once called it my own. It is stiff and uncomfortable, and sticky and sad. I cringe every time I hear it, it was never my home. But I will never not envy the fact that our mother handcrafted it for you while Avery was never touched by her beauty. When you think beauty, I know the only thing you think of is Montana Walker. The girl in your English class with the freckle by her smile who plays chess with you at lunch. But when your father thinks beauty, Alyssa is still his first thought. Dear Alyssa, When you were in sixth grade, you dreamt about me. I wore a pullover hoodie and a backwards hat with one arm slung around Montana's shoulders. You were afraid to touch her, but me, I wasn't intimidated by her. She was quiet and tall, I was taller and loud, my chest was open and breathed proud. You never believed you would get there, and you aren't. I am miles away from loud. I am unable to speak up for you. Even when  I was called a ****** my first day of public high school. Even when I was called a ******* ****** *** **** by a member of our own community, someone who shares so much of our journey. I didn't speak up for you or me. I'm sorry. Dear Alyssa, I'm sorry I tried to tear you open to see if I was hiding underneath. I'm sorry. I was not underneath. This is no woman's body because it belongs to me. I was not underneath. Dear Alyssa, Mom and dad are right. You are beauty. You are pretty and feminine and sweet. Alyssa, you are the prettiest boy you'll ever meet, because frankly, there is no girl I used to be. We are inherently male because we are supposed to be. **** biology. **** transphobic members of the LGBT community. **** that at 15, you've reached half a trans* person's life expectancy. **** that you will never be allowed to join the military. **** the life that they want you to lead. You are me. You are the boy I used to be. Dear Alyssa, I'm sorry. Sincerely yours P.S. I should've loved you more.

There is no night like a bayou night, the air pregnant with expectancy and mystery, mingling scents of wisteria, trumpet honeysuckle and gumbo mud - a Dark Ages alchemist seeking an elusive golden fragrance. It's a night dark despite the nearly full moon, a night in which fireflies pulsate as so many flickering neon bulbs and the cacophony of insects reaches toward an unattainable crescendo. Mammoth cypress trees line the bayous, letting fall Spanish moss as strands of ghostly gray-green hair, and the oppression of dark is waiting just beyond the searching lantern. At times the wind moans like a sated lover, at other times it howls wildly, but it's always present and always vocal to those who would listen. There could be fear in such nights, or there can be a love of the mysteries inherent with the bayous - I choose the love of the bayous. *I lived in Louisiana about nine years, and there are many things about that state I still love - bayous being one of them.* --

Bayou Night
It's our time *The sublime Rhyme and reason We season this reality with words instead of thyme: Both are medicinal Antiseptic chemicals to keep away the grime*                    Don't tell me any different                 Bare witness to the gift of bliss that is expression                        Words can increase life expectancy in the midst of depression              They can get back at those who hurt you without using a weapon             Or refresh your mental image when you're feeling less than They form legacies and dedications Eulogies and congratulations They give everything in existence an identity Even the most ****** obscenities Words are life and words are love Words even form this silly cheesy stuff        **To everyone feeling poetic, I have but one question       What's one way, while writing, your life has been blessed in?**

Poets' Battlecry
Cries of a wolf—howling in the burns of a shadowy night. Preying eyes, seeking, pouncing to hunt you out my dear. Chasing love, or rather being chased by love behind a trail of youthful winds. At the time we still could count the scars on our knees. Seems we've barely got skins holding solid on our bones. Time is a she-wolf feasting on once was youth. Her sharp tooth digs into my eyes—gnawing my ability of sight. I'm haunted by the long nights; seeming longer if you're unsure you'd wake in the morning. Death is a mistress of non screaming echoes, but a peaceful whisper of her calling. She knocks at the door of my cold feet; a deathbed unlike no other rest to your eyes. (It's subtle goodbye) But a longest night, makes expectancy of the day brighter than it's tomorrow. But a few extra hours is never what we'll borrow—still the hours of wisdom we left behind is hoped to follow. To let new things grow in the rises of one's written experience, as the story of a Morn' flower.

tonight a girl stands on a bridge. the midsummer breeze dances around her curves. it begs her to come play. her heart beats steady. her gaze is motionless. the changing air steals a whisper. "we are moving into the house of Aquarius" under the bridge a man sleeps. in a few weeks he'll turn fifty-eight, but he doesn't know that. he hasn't had a birthday celebration in years. he hasn't had anything to celebrate in years. the bridge is home now. above  him, a girl is rediscovering herself. a girl is rediscovering her fear of heights. she looks 25 light years above her, at Vega. in a way, she thinks, she is like this star. she is about midway through her life expectancy, but her light died a quarter century ago. the man sleeps soundly. a smile is spread across his face. he is dreaming of his dinner, a footlong sub. extra olives, just the way he likes it. it was his first meal in several days but tonight, his stomach is full. he has come to like the grease on his face. it shows he has survived many challenges. the hardships have only made him wiser. the girl, she minored in astrology. she was fifth in her graduating class. debt lurked deep in her mind. it polluted her every thought with reminders that she was not in control. now, she tries to justify her current position. on the bridge. looking out at Lyra, partially hidden by clouds "nothing I do will matter." she reconsiders. she recalls an anecdote she overheard on the subway, or somewhere: "when you're dead, you're dead for a looooong time" she smiles. kids say the darnedest things. tonight she curses her 'lucky stars'. nothing the girl does will matter. tonight she will become a woman. tonight she will give  herself to the wind. the man will find her in the morning. the man will chuckle to himself. "they always make it down here, one way or another"

House of Aquarius
tonight a girl stands on a bridge. the midsummer breeze dances around her curves. it begs her to come play. her heart beats steady. her gaze is motionless. the changing air steals a whisper. "we are moving into the house of Aquarius" under the bridge a man sleeps. in a few weeks he'll turn fifty-eight, but he doesn't know that. he hasn't had a birthday celebration in years. he hasn't had anything to celebrate in years. the bridge is home now. above  him, a girl is rediscovering herself. a girl is rediscovering her fear of heights. she looks 25 light years above her, at Vega. in a way, she thinks, she is like this star. she is about midway through her life expectancy, but her light died a quarter century ago. the man sleeps soundly. a smile is spread across his face. he is dreaming of his dinner, a footlong sub. extra olives, just the way he likes it. it was his first meal in several days but tonight, his stomach is full. he has come to like the grease on his face. it shows he has survived many challenges. the hardships have only made him wiser. the girl, she minored in astrology. she was fifth in her graduating class. debt lurked deep in her mind. it polluted her every thought with reminders that she was not in control. now, she tries to justify her current position. on the bridge. looking out at Lyra, partially hidden by clouds "nothing I do will matter." she reconsiders. she recalls an anecdote she overheard on the subway, or somewhere: "when you're dead, you're dead for a looooong time" she smiles. kids say the darnedest things. tonight she curses her 'lucky stars'. nothing the girl does will matter. tonight she will become a woman. tonight she will give  herself to the wind. the man will find her in the morning. the man will chuckle to himself.

Through the nature that i've travelled There's so much to unravel And the sea's that i've swum Whether fishes are dumb And the skies that are blue Do they wear lace shoes? Those dinosaurs which were ugly Did they shave their legs regularly? Do flying fishes even fly Or its just a rumor spread by cats So that it can eat every time a human has its catch Did apes develop into humans Or totally vice-versa Before we know it we'll go extinct And apes on trees will have sips of ***** Do kangaroos have pockets from birth Or did they buy from Denims Before i know it dogs will purr And rocks will have feelings Do owls sleep or act their way through the day It will not be Meryl Streep but them, catching the oscar and walking away! Do snakes hiss by nature or just be angry due to their body folds Before i know it others will wear Jimmychoo's and all they'll do is catch a cold! DO lions have smelling ability or they just put a tracking device Playing billiards in 'Catsino' and using cell phones made of mice?! Do eagles, the pilots of the sky have pretty air hostesses attend to Or locate and make a buffet out of the, that's exactly what i'm referring to! Its this jungle or paradise, or what a new age city? Casino's of lions, oscars for owls, that's my LIFE'S EXPECTANCY !

Pulsing Climb
oblivious remarks pierce the air like arrows they fly around our heads like sugar plum fairies waiting to strike at our dreams words exchanged they hang empty, soaked in underlying emotions coated with expectancy they fall shattered looks of pained expression melt away broken hearts we stare through to each soul bruised by poison rain gaps of glass tread cautiously to barred soul untamed release the beast inside revive emotions drowned by whispers tainted you are the one a single touch and bonded our roused lips laced moving in sync to the beat of our undying hearts our eyes meet locked in a trance and we know forever is just a moment away

*concerning the last lines... all we can do with the Cartesian Libra is add adjectives to it, which is contrary to what the existentialists did by simply modifying a furthered abstraction of the compounds 'i think' and 'i am', via the inverted comma(s), otherwise known as dittoing, sic, prior said, or re-, true to the oddity; a king will continue to question his position / being a king by not thinking about it, hence his uninhibited delusions, hereditary, very much genetic; and hence someone who precursors his being with much concern for thinking, the inhibited delusion, self-serving - both are adjective expansions of the Cartesian Libra, just added qualities, given both are facts requiring a slab of marble to look like Rodin's kiss - or approximate, with therefore being the chisel, and so dependent the end product, indeed a slab of marble at first, but not necessarily Rodin's kiss at the end - perhaps a Notre Dame gargoyle...* i am what i think, that's what i came up with after reading some of the bio sketches - even though the truth is that i am what i own - thinking is the part that comes last, if i own a bed and a roof over my head, i end up i thinking about being homeless - but sometimes you do find the ones that are inclined to be what they think, the extremes we call them - supreme anti-materialists, it's not satisfying to own a house or a phone, more is required, something tinged with transcendental counters - they "own" a home but rather not live in it, already the looming fairy of heaven tells them of an unnatural life expectancy - some might say thinking a form of uninhibited delusion sketches, like i'd be a venture capitalists taking a weekend away in Hawaii while some ridiculousness of poverty in India was to blame for my jet streams and carbon footprints - they keep the inhibited delusional in cages without a chance to sketch - because the uninhibited delusional have all the freedoms that Versailles could allow - or... uninhibited delusions of non-thought, inherited, hereditary, versus inhibited delusions of thought, mutated, self-invented... this could very well be a "magic" square with two further variations, i.e. uninhibited delusions of thought (psychopathy) inhibited delusions of non-thought (coma?

Coffee stains on these lips you stained Your breath I can still feel, whispering  "I'll never leave" But promises are feigned to be broken  Deigned with trust, words that matter unspoken Fate played its twist, karma hit me like I deserved this Past loves I slaughtered, they'll be laughing now "I hope he'll die a loner" *These lips are stained With more than just coffee They are stained and tainted With the ghost of your memory. I still recall, last fall, When you took the words  I love you and  Breathed life into them As you whispered them gently In my ear And stamped your name Underneath my rib cage I remember how sincere You sounded, How so willingly  I plucked them from the air And surrounded Myself, in their warmth. I'll never forget,  The yield of regret, That comes with not  Building up walls And putting up a safety net For all of those times you Let me slip Between your fingers And the pain it still lingers. Your promises were made Empty and broken The lies and deception Apparent yet unspoken.* Life's expectancy to decree what I believed  That our love was bound by fate If only I didn't get my coffee that day We would never have met And I won't be dealing with this heartache I hear but I can't see Blinded by your Iloveyou's  Those 7 letters, three words will be the death of me Clinging on to hope, hoping you'll be my last But like the others you left,  For the first time, leaving me broken Helpless and leaving me wanting more Was it even real for you at all? *I thought that maybe I had finally found the one But past lovers They too, had upped and gone And I'm left thinking And wondering* ***Is there something wrong, With me?***

This fire smoldering between us burns so very intense that all my inhibitions just seem to melt away. I can't stop myself from becoming drunk off the intoxication of your captivating physic, MMMM I love feeling this way. I see your eyes light up with expectancy when I tease you, sending waves of temptation thru your imagination. With deep anticipation, I savor the idea of our bodies intertwined and my head becomes dizzy from my hearts acceleration. Curving my long sleek body to fit into your mold, while teasing nibbles and seductive kisses are given in just the right place. Breathless whispers fueled by pure desire, exploring each others body with enticing caresses as we long to stay locked in this lustful embrace.
