"explosively" poems
*A coarse, yellow coat with dark spot aplenty Lean as a greyhound with limb long and lengthy, Faster than hare from a cold standing start Impossibly glimpsed in tall grasses that part. Crystaline jewels in two huge hazel eyes With the svelt of a feline’s cold killing surprise, Explosively quick with an elegant gait And a murderous jaw full of canines that wait For a fleeing gazelle or a springbok at speed Then a launch that would emulate bullet, when freed. Incredibly smooth with a fast loping stride That would tax any racehorse an envious ride, Snapping manouvers to left and to right That mirror a quarry’s evasions of flight. A blur in a frantic explosion of dust Then the life blood erupts, splashing red as the rust. Heaving great flanks after thrill of the chase Wide open muzzle and gore on the face, Guarding the game till the kittens locate Then the spoils of the chase will make portions dictate.* Marshalg Serengetti Plain Central Africa 30 November 2012

Welcome the new day As night lifted her screen The sun had brought its palette Boasting of colours never before I've seen Rays like paintbrushes As they dove into the water Light explosively burst into emeralds Ripple and eddies would sparkle and shimmer Bolts from the orange orb Speared the tops of trees and sprawling ground Tinting their leaves with green of olives And grass with freshness abound Its wand touched the tip of the distant lighthouse Turning it the brightest green It brought life back to my surrounding Layered my eyes with the greenest of sheens Such beauty laid bare The difference was literally night and day But my heart is also green To readily accept what my mind has to say As if a child Or yet still a greenhorn I should ignore the stains of yellow And enjoy this new day that had just been born

I can't stop writing this poetry, Because all I think of is poetry. Phrases repeat temselves spontaniously. Like trains coming continuously Rhyme and metre extravagantly Burst into flames explosively. Twas I who consulted psychiatry. OCD he said repeatedly. OCD I thought repeatedly. Then I broke free From Rhyme and.  Metre And any rules really!!! **** it? Flower Sunshine in the rain Relax bro Be open and throw **** all over the place                     But do it with grace.

floating
Turquoise in the morning light The treetops are alive With the myriad of birdsong As the swirling mists arrive And the shaft of brilliant sunshine Penetrates the greenish gloom To illuminate the craggy ridge In a honeyed, golden bloom. The rabbits head for burrows Retreating from the night, A flock of teal, in unison, Explosively take flight, There’s a freshness in the morning air A tingle to the skin And the twinkle in the blue eyes Lets a secret smile begin. Autumn in the country glade The russets and the gold, The song of early crickets In the leafy knoll takes hold, There’s a brilliance in the crispness In the piles of windblown leaves And the healthy crunch of underfoot Invokes a sense of ease. The peacefulness is calming The solace in the sound Of the distant song of blackbird In the tall oaks that surround And the velvet feel of morning Thrills the mind to warmly hum To the glory of occasion In the warmth of Autumn sun.

Warmth of Autumn Sun
In Stardust, Is where can hopes be born, But also, where a star has died, violently, explosively, shining out light so brilliant it would roar if it hit the atmosphere, illuminate it, It is hot, alike the purgatory with a sweet look to gaze at if you observe the planetary nebulae by a far, far distance of course, The dreams of the nova remnant, spread across space, left is but a small piece of dense matter, pulsating light cast by it's fast spin, It is but a pulsar, or rather this old lady could be called one of the many lighthouses of our beloved widely beautiful universe, Shining brilliantly even after death, isn't that what we all desire ? If sadness clouds your judgement and you have nowhere to run, And if you feel lonely in a starlit sky, worrying about the past long gone, losing yourself to your recurring, cruel thoughts, Just remember, that you too, once were part of a bright, shining star which once too used to brighten up the dark, cold night for one else. ~ Umi

In Stardust
We reside in a circus tent strung with Goldilock's curls Blood-red rose petals drizzle from flesh-tinted ceiling drapes, floating over bodies reborn. Blood-red rose petals the color of a lion's heart that beats rhythmically, imprisoned in the ivory-white cartilage of a rib-cage close to cracking, threatening an untamed liberation. Who has enough audacity to draw so near to trust his head between unpredictable jaws or tinseled with moths to dance illuminated by street-lights, like snow that never falls. Now she is laughing with ethereal camaraderie at the physicality of Earth reality illuminating how limited vision is before the lights start flashing human and star dissolve as explosively irreversible chemical reactions The ringmaster, tossing Saturn's turn, a voice like wind-chimes an honest sparkle in his eye, welcomes one to roam where hearts dance freely in ever-lasting starlit flame, Concluding: As long as we thank love for feeling we'll never fall again.

some days, his eyes are full with angst his arms down his sides, with his fists as closed as his ears and all I want to say is *I know how it is to be so angry you don't know where to go because the whole world lights you up like a dry stick of explosives, how it is to have your feelings being so big they start to feel like extensions of your limbs, waving uncontrollably and all you can do to avoid their friction from setting you on fire is either to cut them off or keep your arms down your sides* but I step aside, because he can no longer take in my words his six year old eyes are filled with the nothingness of an anger so big and unlabeled but someday, I will tell him and he will understand I will tell him that even though my blood is not in his veins, I will cleanse it from soot and silt, I will be his human shield from this world I will tear kingdoms apart and slay every last creeper just to help him level up and I will uncontrollably, explosively and unconditionally love him // vissa dagar är hans ögon fyllda med ångest hans armar längs sidorna, med nävar lika hårt stängda som hans öron och allt jag vill säga är att *jag vet hur det är att vara så arg att du inte vet vars du ska ta vägen, för hela världen får en att tända som en torr bunt sprängämnen, hur det är att ha känslor så stora att de börjar kännas som förlängningar av dina egna armar och ben, okontrollerbart viftande och allt du kan göra för att förhindra att deras friktion tänder eld på dig är att antingen hugga av dem eller hålla armarna längs sidorna* men jag går undan, för han kan inte ta in mina ord längre hans sexåriga ögon fyllda med ingentinget av en ilska så stor och oettikerad ilska men någon dag ska jag berätta för honom och han ska förstå jag ska berätta för honom att även fast mitt blod inte flyter genom hans artärer, ska jag rensa det från smuts och sot, jag ska vara hans mänskliga sköld från den här världen jag ska slita kungariken itu och döda varenda creeper bara för att hjälpa honom att levla upp och jag ska okontrollerbart, explosivt och villkorslöst älska honom

My love, my love these shaky Isles Abandoned in the vast blue seas, Born in Mesozoic times When sedimentary oozes ease. From far Antarctic mountainsides To windblown dust from Austral plain They lay in layers thick and deep Beneath the Tasman Sea's domain. A thousand million years of ****** Of plate tectonic shear and drift, Mid oceanic larva seep Determines continental shift. Deep magmatic plumes arise From down within the planet's core To burst asunder from the crust As mountain God's volcanic lore. Ash and larva from the vent In pyroclastic feirce display, Obliterate the cold blue sky Explosively in massive way. Rooster tails of feiry ash And bread crust bombs cascade about Vulcan roars his rage to all In violent, vast, volcanic route. Ignimbrite flows from the vent In sheets a hundred meters deep The incandescence, from on high, Would, watching Angels, cause to weep. Like quicksilver, it cloaks the land To cover all in burning flow, To last a million years as sheets Of sharded rock where 'ere you go. So the land was born of fire And bent and twisted by the force Of upthrust from the great, beneath And earthquakes felt throughout, of course. Earthquakes of unearthly fear Wrack foundation's very base, Sudden as the artic gale Unpredictable to face. So the shaky Isles were born Here to lie in ocean's vast, Clad in forest lush and green Snowclad mountains, rivers fast. Well kept cities, well kept towns Population proud and clean, Beauty all around is felt Perched atop creation's dream. So the Shaky Isles exist Perfect in their place in time, Perched atop subducting plates Perched in ignorance sublime. What's around the corner now? Who's concerned, who really cares For Kiwis make the best of now... The rest remains as chance declares. Marshalg Celebrating a love affair with my beautiful New Zealand. 31 August 2012

Starlings fly in silver sky Bullfinch in the dry grass sings, Emerald teal in tandem fly Explosively on phosphor wings. Miracles are in the air Golden sun in evening glow, Marigolds of orange flair, With lavender, in patchwork grow. Sap is flowing in the wood bursting buds of olive greens, Winter flees as winter should Whilst bubbling brook transform to streams Miracles are in the air Colour rich in reddish hues, Greens of fresh lime , aqua flair Spring arrives in vivid views. Silk striations lace the sky With molten, mackerel clouds of gold, Evening chill for you and I Suggest we snuggle close to hold. Miracles are in the air A Moonrise breaks horizon’s door, Hugely round with craters bare We laugh with joy and seek for more. Tantalizing night upon us Stars ignite the heaven's fire, Black as pitch with jewelled Adonis Hot white pinpoints of desire. Miracles are in the air Passion in the blood doth boil, Moonlight through her silver hair Exquisite as blue fire on oil. Marshalg @thebach 29 August 2011

him. the fire that was once burning so explosively giving up days after ratchet days to kindle it him. It let off so much warmth in my heart kept me cozy on days of doubt him. was unselfish caring to all him. could easily be gone if I didn't tend it just right him. flaring in extraordinary ways looked like a devil in an angel kind of way him. him. reminds me of a fire.

He is fire
I trace your outline alone in the dark, imagine your sweet feminine form lying beside me, every part of me is on fire, you burn the same desire. We move melodic, locked in unison to the beat of Kashmir. I feel your temperature rise as I move behind & between your thighs. Your closed eyes speaks volumes, it's the sweetest music to my ears. Strange, how my fiery-imagination leads to such a succulent conclusion. I free flow molten lava explosively into you, images of me grasping your thick hair as you sigh with mutual satisfaction. I am drenched in the dreams I have of you.

The Same Desire (Mutual Satisfaction)
In the right place At the right time On the right day In the northwest sky You can see star girl You can't always see her But she's there Oh, she's there People admire Stargirl from far away But no one sees Stargirl They see 10,000 lights All suspended up in the sky No one sees the 10,000 ***** of gas burning They burn explosively emitting blasts of passion But no one sees those No, one sees her fire They see Stargirl Shining in the sky But not her fire Oh, not her fire They see Stargirl Perched upon a constellation They see her perch But what they don’t see is how precarious it truly is They don’t see the immense amount of weight The weight she balances It’s as if, if she moved The world would come crashing down around her They see the planets the constellations and the stars They see the glitz and the glam The pretty things What they don’t see is the void she floats in. Nobody asks about the pressure Only she, remembers the excruciating pressure. Because all stars shatter Before they show their true colors. She can only hope That one day somebody will look With their mind Not their eyes And see all of her Not just the parts that shine

Star Girl
I wonder why everyone can't just flat-out, God-blessed, love each other- freely, purely, and explosively- why are some people allowed to hold hands on the street and others must keep it in the privacy of their homes some bodies must be hidden and others can be exposed some kisses must be kept secret from those who love you the most some heartbeats must happen outside of your own house some moments cannot exist in the presence of others and some lovers can only love a certain type of other lovers. Why is it that I must be fearful in a group of people that they can see my brainwaves and know what I am feeling and that it would be dangerous if they knew? Why must it be this way that I have to be in the vast minority and that the chances of me finding someone to love is minuscule and difficult; everyone is at a different stage regarding my certain type of love, and it carries a baggage straight people don't have it carries a complication, a heartbreaking rope of knots and pain and confusion and 'do I even feel this way' because you have been taught that you shouldn't and 'why isn't there straight pride' and 'just don't shove it down my throat' these type of misunderstandings create this impossible disharmony 'stop queering the straights' 'oh so you're basically a lesbian' no. I am not a lesbian- please stop classifying me and while you're at it, please stop acting differently around me because you're scared I'm into you chances are, I'm not. Please stop asking me why it's necessary for me to come out and say it, its because every single other person, me included, is assumed to be straight, and makes comments about dating boys and just boys and it's this eternal 'no homo' and my own parents want me to bear children and it's part of me, okay? It's me and it's my self expression and it isn't shoving it down your throat I just want to know that I can still be completely me and still be completely loved, that's all, that's why I have to say it out loud, because it carries with it a kind of suffocation that builds and builds because everything around you pushes you down and tears at your foundation and when you finally say it, there's a pain that's gone that you know will never hurt again but it will always sting, little daggers when your friends won't get quite as close as they used to and your mom gives you different looks in public or I am constantly misunderstood and misperceived and it's scary, it's a scary world for us, it's a scary world for us, it's a scary world for us and it will be that way until we speak loud enough that we are heard.

she will cradle her head in patchwork hands and her lips crack and out spills words explosively. tears trace peculiar tracks down porcelain cheekbones that jut out much too harshly under the dying stars. cold moonbeams dance over her hips and light upon the desperation in her eyes. invisible bruises are painted onto her soul and when she smiles you can almost see them. a cigarette pressed to dry cracking lips will be all she wants when she is slowly slipping. she will never breathe a word of the betrayal she felt when her own body failed. and when her skin is paper-white you will press trembling kisses to the backs of her hands and cry.

living dangerously and loving fiercely
The whole pain Precipitated from the night sky In the morning rain Chiding me for love exposed Now lying wasted in the drenched soil Uncared and little How I love? A question that needs answer Only to those who don't And it etches like A newly acquired scab I just don’t know How? What I know Is this feeling in me Growing explosively silent by each space You put in between It brought me down on my knees Feeling the greatness that was To smallness that is Now Meanwhile the Rain Continue lashing my car windows Feels like high speed punishment cell And Love lashes within Whipping up a storm And I call you up And say "how lovely is the weather Around, Wake Up"

Wake up my love...
Friends, enemies, angels, demons, and Gods alike: I have but a simple request of thee: (however redundant it may well be) forget not to drink Water! For 't'is an acid in basic environments and a base in acidic environments; 't'is comprised of two of the most explosively energetic elements and 't'is the foundation upon which many systems operate and 't'is the medium through which many systems facilitate. 'T'is pure crystalline goodness for these, our crystalline bodies; and, I find, the chances are 't'will only be of benefit to thee to drink some more of it! So, my advice is: do it: drink it deep if, indeed, ye can. For, thou art fortunate if such be the case and it's straight-up fuckin' irreverent to ignore such an extreme gift. When it is there, 't'is there for thee; 't'will nourish thee. Give thanks to it as well as for it. Hydrate, it feels great. It can be a cure-all for even the worst moods. Some mint, some lemon, maybe some solid water polyhedrons, should ye encounter such need for diminished thermal states. Though, warm water is absorbed more readily. The moral here is merely to respect what thy Body needs, both mentally and physically: 't'is thy vessel; 't'is owed thy respect: 't'is what gives thee Time, and it is good to give back.

Her name sounds a lot like my prayers. I know she can’t hear them, But God pays attention to the things that make us happy. When she looks into the sky to marvel at stars, She has no idea that every star is staring back at her. They shine brightly because she brings out the best in us. Her smile has never solved any problems. It makes every problem an opportunity. Like how love can finally set you free. If we were together, time would stop. Father Time would fumble his watch faster than he dropped his jaw. If we were together, the world would break. Mother Nature would be explosively jealous of her beauty. My heart was accustomed to living in pieces. I don’t bother with doctors because they can’t cure soul-mate separation. When she came along she didn’t try to change me. Piece by piece, she put me back together. She told me she feels empty when we aren’t talking. As if my words are raindrops that make a difference in the ocean of her soul. I commit all of her words to memory. As if I could nail myself to every T, and be closer to making a memorable sacrifice. If I spent my entire life try to deserve her, I might save enough to glance at her smile. In case I die tonight, I want you to be my last thought. My last word deserves to be your name, whispered on My last breath, only audible for God to hear. Death might be waiting patiently for me. There is nothing else I can imagine dying for

International Manifesto
Bottle caps, broken glass, dried chewing gum from persons passed, and you. You-there. Obliterated. Condemned to die by thoughtless giants: passers-by with no alliance to rain, nor sun, nor earth or its creatures smaller than their thumb. Your brothers lie about you and cousins lie around; awareness reaching only feeling-- feeling only reaching now and unforgiving ground. Scattered masses who dared to run from home to find the rain-- to feel the air so moist it could sustain a life-- just once. Just one time. To dream that a child of the earth could feel the light, the freedom within thinner space before, again, within the ground to be encased. To play like children often do, those wet-shoed, runny nosed few. To thrive without surviving-- But this is the price you pay to live so explosively before dying. I wish that I could see through your eyes the dream that makes it worth it to yield to fate in exchange for a dance beneath the open sky. Or do you know? I'm sure you do. I like to imagine I would, if I were you Do you realize your mistake? Before the sun, your life will take? And if, again you had the choice, would you still emerge from earth's embrace for skys rejoice? I'd like to think you would. You. Ceased-to-be, but still are; near to home, and somehow far; lost from earth but found by me, crushed and trampled. Immobile, but free. Here there lies bottle caps and broken glass, dried chewing gum from persons passed: Things I would not touch if asked, and then you. You-there. Obliterated.

*Rising in our morning might we find a theme an image which gathers ragged edges of day.. Before engaging take pains reject defective creations.. surrender to one theme emerging from shadow.. Then to survey many mosaic pieces fallen.. and find on the floor theme patterns reflect.. Must know our theme is well hidden arrives in variations through ambiguous day.. Then in our depths in ecstasy we know the theme we created is our creator also.. Recapitulation at evening a symphony complete.. we explosively repeat: Now it is good...!*

Sixteen Swans
I have never known love. I have never been held by somebody who said “We fit together”. There has never been another And that is fine. I can’t live up to someone’s standards And I can’t give more than I can take. Of my heart to only one. There isn't a part of me That I can let ache Because I need him by me. I can’t give up drinking, and messing myself up, Until I am tangled and bent. It is my art, and it is an instinct To remain convoluted and tormented. It’s not a burden I can lay on someone without guilt. Everyone is shallow to some extent, And unless he is beautiful superficially, I won’t be able to step out holding his hand. Walk, head held high, Telling the crowd that yes, he is mine And I am his. There are parts of me I love, Slender ankles, fragile eyes, But too many that I hate. So it is impossible to believe someone Who tells me that I am deadly Beautiful, Until those parts are blotted out, fixed. I will continue to have to deal with anorexia and depression, States that will always threaten to asphyxiate me And I understand these are things that most people can’t understand. This sort of continual struggle Which I let creep beneath my thoughts Every single ******* day. Parts of me that are locked away, Quietly pushed to the furthest corners Under the bed Shamefully. There are dreams of coffee in the morning, Cigarettes after *** Fingers down my back, And falling asleep on his lap. But I am unsure of what to say, and how to act So he won’t have feelings of being oppressed or worse Unloved. I swing between extremes, And there is no in between. I live explosively, and that’s not something Easily accepted. Terrified of all these rules and warnings And reining back, I would rather be alone.

I am being born again and again From above Not from the will of men And in these births is one aching desire to connect with you my sister, my bride I'll never have another Lover I've always had infinite lovers My awareness has contracted In order to expand explosively Come and drink with me Let us have our fill of love Intoxicating Our spirits touching one another tenderly and willingly Let us open one another To the vulnerability That love requires Throwing down our shields and weapons to see the fruit of our desires Oh, the pangs of this inexpressible love Come away with me Come away and drink with me It is with my blood that I write these words to you My blood is spirit My very life I will never lose a single one of you Friends and lovers We could never lose each other Wandering alone through Maya all along, the illusion drawing us together This is our primal nature Forsake the law And repudiate morality This is our very destiny Let us be naked Let us expose ourselves Let us share ourselves freely Let us connect completely What is the law if not only the darkest magic We have ever found ourselves enslaved to? Hyper-rationality Fed good and evil from the same tree Enlightenment Apollo Darkening our Dionysian revelry But it was for a purpose Transcending means including But with equality Why should Apollo rule Dionysius? Why should Bacchus yield to the hammer of Hephaestus? Can you see we've always been completely innocent? Do you still imagine that Love includes any imperfection? Can you see that we are One and only One? And that the One is always absolutely perfect? Oh, our folly Of free will and control Don't we know that we are each and every one A multitude? I am a community I fulfill the law of my community's desire And care for all of them tenderly But I do not exert control I am community Come commune with me We'll express the inexpressible Playfully In turn We are each communities Let our communities partake together Of this Dionysian revelry Making love from dusk till dawn Then making love again Let us leave the law and moral code For other women, other men Love under will And fulfill the law of do what thou will Only Love can thus possess you But know that Love, this Chief of Daimons Had possessed you before you ever thought of Her Her name is Being, Consiousness, and Bliss Have I merely drunk too much? No, I cannot ever have my fill Let me dream of friends and lovers Let me love under the Will
