"hunters" poems
Lovers entered a forbidden forest bower, And as they stalked that range, with eyes glazed, She offered up her hind. Now, with doe eyes, Deep as his, deep in arousal's sleep, heels fell,  As he knocked and pulled her dark honey hair  And whispered, surrender, into wanting ears,  Softly he drove his hunting command, homing  To his huntress. Her body braced, yet bade, with heat and vibrance. Ruthlessly, he ****** his arrow deeper and then  Once more and then again.  She bucked fiercely  And defiant, goading his prodding lance ever more Ever longer, and parting the pink lines of her white Rose, he was, and once again, Prince to the dark Dominion of her quarters. In the middle of this carnal match they paused. And looking into the forest beyond they saw A yearling fawn, a feral Goddess, grazing still,  Bathing in a vale, virginal, wholly unmoved  By their act of venery, lustfully playing, in the innocent  Leaves.  It was as if they were among her kin, a gentle  Doe and a noble stag. From that moment on  The human hunters did not speak. Falling, again, rolling eyes were deep in arousal's sleep. Her back was a crescent moon pocked and wet with dew. He could feel her heart beating in time with his piercing  Prong, her arching back glistened in the suns spittle As it broke through the dark and vernal ceiling wood. In the final shot her quivering buck lowered and broke And a sound not heard, made a scene, a sweet murmuring Shuddered and sank onto the floor of the forest leaves  With her tale, taken and told, her breathless breath,  Her nostrils cold and her heated and lanced openings  Dripping, draining; here was a New World’s beginning. Sated, solemn and softly quaking, his woman sweetly laid, And now, doomed with her doe eyes, two lovers, fated, made; She glowed, divine, like the rolling brook that mellowed Slow, in the vine-dark and golden forest stable, In Artemis’s wood.

In Artemis’s Wood

over the past weeks a gentle autumn sun has painted colored leaves upon the ground and thinned the bright abundance of the wooded ranges most of the harvest is securely stored by now or sold at morning markets by weathered men and women in country garbs vintners are busy with their lots fermenting grapes and entertaining those who see their visit as pleasant pastime and escape from daily urban chores hunters and lumbermen are waking up to shoot and mark schools by this time have settled into the new year teachers are happy still to share the knowledge of our world with students still inclined to listen businessmen remembering their vacations on the Bahamas or in Saint Tropez step sprightly into offices womanned by secretaries dreaming secretly of beautiful Mallorca summers and of those never-ending nights on the Algarve I guess it is a human thing to find a new beginning and do best when nature’s breath goes easy to collect the strength for yet another fruitful year or were it better that we also took a rest?            * * *

autumn (reposted)
Compelled by calamity's magnet They loiter and stare as if the house Burnt-out were theirs, or as if they thought Some scandal might any minute ooze From a smoke-choked closet into light; No deaths, no prodigious injuries Glut these hunters after an old meat, Blood-spoor of the austere tragedies. Mother Medea in a green smock Moves humbly as any housewife through Her ruined apartments, taking stock Of charred shoes, the sodden upholstery: Cheated of the pyre and the rack, The crowd ***** her last tear and turns away.

Aftermath
What's up is the sky and I'm up for the stars and down for a cave expedition. I'm game for a used copy since time is literally killing me while I got pizza in one hand and an energy drink in the other so the tree that is my life goes chop chop chop. The only chip on my shoulder is a potato chip because I got a dozen for every dime I spent, which is a drop in the bucket of change I'm saving for Coinstar. My son Jack has made many trades, from CDs to movies to videogames to trading cards and he just so happens to be a Pokemon master, thank you very much. Resisting a piece of cake is no piece of cake, even when the recipe --complete with a photogenic picture-- is comprised of over a thousand words. Don't cheat on your diet, the spinach is always watching and that Rolex will feel so tight you'll be praying for thousands of slaps on both wrists. When things get hot you can bang against a clock to see how long you last. Just don't crack 'em up too much, clocks are fragile devices. My motor's a Cobia yours is an Evinrude but otherwise we're in the same boat. Whenever I fail I don't go to the drawing board, I get out my scrap book. I prefer its texture and it is, truly, the first square. When my frustration becomes too much I might have to beat the bush instead, after all it can't be a sightseer forever. Don't throw me a bone, I'm not dog, merely a curious cat still on his seventh life. I'd rather be close than be stuck with a cigar-- smoking's bad and I hate the smells. If I'm left with nothing, I'll cry like a wolf. Wolves are hunters, wolves are survivors.

Spring is the awaited child, seeds to plant, plans to explore, conjuring promise and renewal, That awakens our soul. Summer inspires with long sunny days basking in the embrace of green crops growing, relief from heat under leafy trees, leisurely nights of clean skies, bright stars on high to infinity. Fall comes as a warning beacon, days of long shadows, cool nights with chill breeze, bedecked trees in reds and yellow. The report of hunters guns from the depths of the forest. Winter's a prelude to gloom, short days, low sun when it appears, wind-chills that burn. Snow to shovel, ice to befuddle. Conjuring envy and impatience for the return of Spring. So the seasons flow one into another, while every year lived the cycles grow shorter, with no guarantees of how many more may follow.

Seasons Flow
There’s a gun upon my bed Not the kind made of metal A vivid tattoo color Above my lover’s Secret devil And that gun is like a demon Aimed toward her pleasure zone Urging hunters to take a shot And take the trophy Home I see blood upon the doorstep I smell ****** in her fold I fear ghosts will haunt her body In the bullets I have sown I hear hungry infants crying The ones she gave away And the ******** she is hiding Are my regrets from yesterday I feel the gun blazing As she ***** my breath away I’m a hostage to her body In the mayhem She purveys In the middle of the night I’ll make my escape Run, run, run Run away I’ve got to run In the middle of the night When her back is turned Run, run, run Run away I’ve got to run There’s a gun upon my bed It belongs to my baby Burned deep inside her On a night she went Crazy And every time I think I’ll flee Her dangerous painted gun She draws it against me And I feel myself succumb I see blood upon the doorstep I smell ****** in her fold I fear ghosts will haunt her body In the bullets I have sown I hear hungry infants crying The ones she gave away And the ******** she is hiding Are my regrets from yesterday Save me from her gun She’ll never let me go Save me from drowning In her young and wanton soul I’ve got to run But there’s a gun My baby won’t let me go.

Hostage in the Bedroom
Once upon a day or night -- Wait, it was day, there was a light a light, which shone upon a moonlit drive so dark and drear. At keeping track, I'm sadly slacking. Forgive my memory, it is lacking memoirs of this day of days I could not -- would not -- hear. But now alas, alan, alack, something gruesome did attack, my dear. Something's ugly head did rear. Indistinctly, I remember, was it June? July? November? Moments burn together as I recollect the fear. And though he knows it gets to me, he will never set it free, the truth of all the memories I used to hold so dear. The truth you chose to hide from me for days, turned months, turned year. But no, I will not shed one tear. He held my hard heart high in flutter. Stomachs full of bread and butter. Our love could not be jaded, for he traded tea from beer. And though we were the oddest pair, I thought by now he would not care how people chose to say their puns of nuns and hateful jeer. Of wolves and sheep, of awkward sleep, of hunters hunting deer. I thought we had our life in gear. Sadly, though, I was mistaken. Blast, that awful wretch has taken my whole soul and everything I previously thought mere. He broke it off, and with a cough confessed, a darkest truth repressed of everything, how twas a lie, and that the end was near. And with four words, a looking glass of sorts he handed me to peer. These the blue-eyed snake hath spoke: "Honey, I'm a queer."

The Crumbling of the Closet Door
Lightning Strikes 323 Norwegian Reindeer Hunters made the discovery, stealth and ***** dabbed anoraks all for nothing not to mention a critical downwind approach and camo blend that rendered Frode and Jørgen or Ove and Anders invisible against rock and lichen and cloudberry but offered little protection against thoughts sublime. Ove, perhaps, cursing God for poor sportsmanship, the divine equivalent of dynamiting fish, while Anders gave silent thanks to fortune, a freezer full of steaks.

Lightning Strikes 323 Norwegian Reindeer
She gazed out long and far, Past half closed curtains   And dozing, docile cars. Witness to a world double glazed Dampened by a passing rain. Sound drowned still by fragile, Stained glass pane. Skies lay grey, like every other day, Shrubs shrug and trees sadly sway. She feels for the trees, (And to an extent the shrub) They're not so different from you or I. We all plant roots, grow, love? Thoughts disturbed by a startled dove, Flew the coup, done, had enough, Rose as Icarus toward the sun. Basked in light of new found freedom. Never heard the hunters gun.

Half Closed Curtains
*rocks don't care all stubble and stones a difficult geometry so if they don't fit they are hammered and crushed to rubble jammed together to make virile walls and if stabbed with swords care not about torn bellies and broken necks soaking them crimson rust or drowned nautilus beneath the sea humans have futility in common with rocks except that everything girds and gnaws at their belligerent sensitivity all clouded soft towers bi-pedal mortal spires with tender flesh beaten into place lacerated truncated amputees to fit the outer life of status and statues a scandal to the inner coves of self I'm envious of rocks except for moments of shifting watery kisses clamorous for love we remain disfigured terrains hunters of souls balmy unguents while fluctious immolating moons unravel in a hidden grieving oh countenance of apathy only to be more like you a wilderness of stumps and dead rock gods and our aspiration indifference our exit the path of the renunciate a penitence feasting only on futility and the vagaries of spirit*

THE FUTILITY OF ROCKS
There once was a girl called Goldilocks Who lived in a forest filled with phlox She did not to have a soul to play with And in the forest she would often drift She once became lost, the lonely, little girl The one with the head full of golden curls Panicked and scared, she came upon a house But it appeared that everyone there was out She helped herself to the food, cold and hot She tried the chairs until one hit the spot Too tired to try to make her way back She hit the sheets to take a nap Very picky was this lost, lonely tot Some porridge was too cold, some too hot Beds too soft or too hard to sleep tight Only one she found that felt just right Mama, Papa, and Baby Bear were soon back on arrival After a long day of fishing for their survival What? Who had their nose in each of their bowls? Gone was one porridge that to the brim was full And who had sat in and broke one of the chairs? It looked like a human by some strands of golden hair! Hunters? Oh, no! Could they be on the prowl? The bears sniffed around and started to growl Baby Bear was the first to see The little girl catching some Z's "Oh, cool!" exclaimed little Baby Bear "Can we keep her? Can she stay here?" They all came upon Goldilocks all snug in bed Papa Bear was now furious and began to see red "And you call us animals!" he yelled loudly at her "Who gives you the right?! Where are your manners?!" Goldilocks woke up with an ear piercing shriek Facing three hairy bears, she could not speak Out the house she ran, far enough to see her home near And that was the last that Goldilocks saw of those bears! "She was just a scared, little girl", Mama Bear said to her spouse "We could have stopped her and let her stay in our house!" Papa Bear, disagreeing with her foolish trust,  swore **** it! I told you the last one out locks the door!!!" "You begin feeding them...they are so clever You'll never get rid of them. They stick around forever!" Mama Bear refused to fight, for Papa Bear refused to bend And that is all there is to the story. THE END!

The Christmas rush has started, and the countdown has begun Advent doors are opened, but look what you have done You've ridiculed the Bounty bar, and your spoiling all the fun Why buy a Celebration, if your not happy after one ? What's behind the cardboard doors, what did you all expect A gold ring perhaps, or the keys for a corvette? Why bother with an advent, when you have no respect There's no need for chocolate genocide, or coconut neglect You shouldn't be so outraged, with your Christmas Celebrations I don't understand the malice, or the advent hesitations If you don't want a bounty, buy heroes or sensations It's hardly a matter for Interpol, or the united nations Celebrations are your choice, there's no cause for your regret The outcome is quite obvious, why are you so upset Are the pictures not a clue, to what your gonna get ? No rarity of Bounty hunters, so don't mess with Boba Fett Are Maltesers that much lighter, in a Galaxy far away Maybe you will find Mars, in between the Milky Way A Twix or Galaxy Caramel, they we're for a different day But you've dissed your celebrations, and no longer want to play Some YouTube clips have surfaced, and I have read the blogs I think it's just pathetic, seeing chocolate thrown down bogs Your creating your own misery, as well as yule time logs You won't be very happy, when your toilet blocks and clogs On day two you still complained, and you wanted to resist Is that because the chocolate, was not on your Christmas list Would you be pleased with mistletoe, if you never did get kissed Christmas spirit has been lost, with your Snickers in a twist Some people are just morons, that's the message that they've sent Their expectations are to high, and cruel jokes are never meant Why is Bounty not as good, to start of an event A Snickers in your calendar, doesn't mean a ruined advent

I feel your love, Yet your marksmanship is poor, For towards me your love aims not. Your intentions aimed elsewhere. A past lover. And I am not he. Malicious Misery pushed you too far. Too far this time. Your life is precious to me, Yet a treasure you seek not. It dwindles within these machines, Like a strand of seaweed. Being crashed upon by the waves, Of this poison you endowed yourself with. Much a tragedy this is. Yet not that of Shakespeare. No, this much too real, To take a form of fictitious imaginings. This, much more complicated, Than a Shakespearean masterpiece. For if so, Your love would be aimed at I. But it is not, And in resent, I mourn this tragedy. Yet, I must let love, Travel upon its everso hellbound path. My eyes lie upon thee, And my heart within the feeble hand of yours. Yet your mind lies elsewhere, And your desires lie with your mind. Upon he. The one currently at your arms reach. The one at your desires demand. The one you truly love. I must not resent this, For love hath struck thee as it struck I. And Cupid's arrow hath stuck he as well. I can see it in his sorrowful stare. He loves you in a way that I cannot. A consentful love. For I am just a scapegoat. Temporary. Well now you've quenched your desire. You've acquired what you sought. Love of he. (And I, for whatever its worth.) His love is a precious gold, And mine a mere coal. Black, unwanted. Only able to provide temporary warmth. Pardon me for obstructing. Love hath stolen my precious vision, And wandered, I, Into the meadow in which you hunt. As a poor marksman, Thou cast thine arrow of love upon me, And realized I am but a scapegoat, When the white stag is what you seek. Once before, you lined him in your sights. But evasive is this mystical creature. And once, he escap'd. If your life so solidifies, I shall replinish my vision, Banish my love, And obstruct thee no more. Instead, I must prosper in silence and patience. Shun my hearts desires, And let thee hunt. I apologize for my inconvenience. I shall groom each of your horses, So that you may ride into, The meadow of love together. Hence, beware of hunters, And wandering creatures. Teach thine unsteady hand, And this time... Don't miss.

Scapegoat of Coal
I feel your love, Yet your marksmanship is poor, For towards me your love aims not. Your intentions aimed elsewhere. A past lover. And I am not he. Malicious Misery pushed you too far.

Being crashed upon by the waves, Of this poison you endowed yourself with. Much a tragedy this is. Yet not that of Shakespeare. No, this much too real, To take a form of fictitious imaginings. This, much more complicated, Than a Shakespearean masterpiece. For if so, Your love would be aimed at I. But it is not, And in resent, I mourn this tragedy.

Unknown are the names of the flowers that have been trampled Birds have fallen to the Earth and long for the wind Prayers won't solve anything Only the will to fight can change the here and now! O pigs who laugh at the resolve to walk over corpses to move forward Livestock complacency? False prosperity? Give us the freedom of dying, starving wolves! The humiliation of being caged is what triggers us to fight back We hunters slaughter prey beyond the castle walls, consumed with surging bloodlust, as our crimson bows and arrows pierce scarlet holes into the twilight.

Sacagawea's Capture As I strolled the Knife River trail a dust cloud swirled and fell and earth lodges appeared by the score extending from the path to the river banks. Hidatsa women sang at their chores,         husking corn -               beading moccasins -                      scraping a buffalo hide. A band of hunters dismounted and released their ropes - dropping two deer and an elk by the hanging rack. Triumphal shouts from the river turned all heads to the shore where warriors, returned from Shoshone fields, lashed up canoes and dragged their human spoils up the rise. Several squaws reached out from the gathering crowd seizing two of the squirming children. A Shoshone girl with terror in her eyes cringed as a warrior raised his arm. "No, tell your Hidatsa name!" Sobbing she choked through broken tears, "My name is Sacagawea." I bolted to breach the walls of time to face death in her defense but a new whirling cloud intervened. When the dust fell away all the lodges had vanished with all the Hidatsa villagers. Kneeling down to the Dakota grass, I caressed a circular hollow etched deeply in the silent earth.

Terror in her Eyes
*After five good years of drought It rained kisses and warming hugs After my heart emaciating from rejection I have experienced a resurrection She kissed me wholly and deep She sowed and had to reap Could not recall the feminine grip Even how to undo a lady zip She kissed my upper and lower lip Then around my body took a trip Tore my favorite shirt,no time to unbutton She ate my skin softly hard as a glutton Not sure it was her mouth on my *** Cause I couldn't open my eyes as she did it She passed her soft fingers on my chest Luckily I hadn't on my fitting vest Crawled about my belly like a worm While my ****** heart beat loud as a drum She said something I didn't hear Because passion had blocked my ear She then undid my belt and my trousers Quicker than all internet browsers Then...then put the muzzle in her mouth Was she aware of the bullet, I doubt She cleared all the rust through the years While in pleasure I cried happy tears She knew how to hold the whistle and blow Between where she knelt down low Her palm around me was a soft tight glove Felt she's the one that I deserved Like a snake she crawled back up And astride the volcanic plug sat Asap Not afraid of the sharp edges causing harm She kissed me violently and hurt my gum I just couldn't care less at such a moment Of a soothing ride, a welcome torment Soon overtaken by my inner animal I realized I could not take it anymore And took charge of the walk to heaven While the clock alarmed, think eleven She arched tout like a hunters bow And her eyes brightly seemed to glow My journey deep was careful and slow But the return as swift as Pacman's blow I loved the way she clawed her nails Into me, she reopened all my wells I wanted to take her for a longer ride But the wave of passion killed me,I died Even when we were done I remained inside Watching her skin as pale as transfiguration Out of the joy we had shared, I'm glad I received my emotional resurrection*

MY RESURRECTION

There's spring and there's summer, there's all that's in between no listless skies of anodyne; now nature flaunts and preens What beauty fills the hungry eye 'neath a sky of blue, serene verdant vales soaked in sun, awash in palettes of green There are pastels that awaken and deep shades that passion brews created hues that trickle...sprinkled with 'chartreuse' There's the green of 'asparagus' and that of 'artichokes' Of 'forest', 'ferns' , of 'moss', a brush of different strokes Fragrant plants of 'mint', then 'myrtle' and 'green tea' 'Emerald', 'jade' or 'harlequin' and 'malachites' that be Off creamy shells, just 'pistachio', 'green apples', then of 'pines' It lies too in 'sap' and 'teal', in 'avocados' and tangy 'lime' There's green of the 'mantis', in 'jungle', 'hunters' and 'shamrock' The lithe 'parakeet' fluttering and the lazy sanguine 'croc' In blessed 'basil', ' pickle', in 'pear', 'olives' in 'bottle green' 'Gourds' and 'peas' that farmers grow in cultivars pristine 'Tis there in 'aqua' and 'seaweed', in the ripple of 'sea green' waves In 'turtles', 'sea foam', 'anemone' and a 'tropical glistening lake' From 'laurel green' to an 'army green' , in 'sage' ( a shade of grey ) The color of 'grass' , the murky 'swamp' , hues in array There's 'neon' and an 'Indian green', a 'Persian' one to mystify A 'midnight green' to bright 'fluorescent', oh, for green rainbows in the eye

Fifty shades of Green
Alexander K Opicho (Eldret, Kenya;[email protected]) Do you remember one era in Kenya? During the dark days of dictatorship When Daniel arap Moi Was the tyrannical president of Kenya And darkness of leadership Loomed like the dark clouds of el Niño When forty district commissioners Out of the total of forty two were kalenjins? Whose main work was to spy and terrorize As the people forlornly groaned under the heavy Yoke of state terror of tribal torment When the president claims that He was not aware of such tyranny, When we used to sing a lame poem Of jokoo! Jokoo! Jokoo! Jokoo! On empty stomachs with no hope of food No hope of jobs or even education Street children swelling on the street In total political nonchalance of arap Moi As he only gave free milk to his own kalenjin youths In Kabaraka schools, the Kabaraka school which was Overfunded by the poor tax payers money, Please President Uhuru Kenyatta as good as you are With your dear humane heart of Bantu conscience As you are armed to teeth with modern education **** sapiens Gentility and polished diplomacy Superb in quality of thought and supremacy of choices The government of Kenya is yours and the people of Kenya Are your political darlings, true bandwagons for ever Kindly listen and buy my poemetics, my dear president Remove Daniel Moi from the state house of Kenya, Let not Daniel Moi be your adviser Ignore him and embrace Kenyans For common future happiness Even if Daniel Moi is old, the truth is different He is not a good man, he is full of Machiavelli His full badness is measured in absurdity Of terribly and horrendously crashed *** crushed Testicles of poemcrats and political leaders Of Kenya of yore and today, Truth meted in When koigi wa wamwere became A permanent staff of kamiti maximum prison without pension Wangari Mathai beaten like an animal in a hunters trap Ngugi wa Thiong’o jobless and detained without trial Raila Amolo odinga’s testicles went missing He looks for them on daily circadian But once he nears their political pigeonhole Then elections of the times flops, O! Poor Odinga! President Uhuru Kenyatta with your suave intellect You won’t get a pretext to say that I was not aware or not informed Please dear darling of the people The people of Kenya in their 42 tribes Novate Moi with the people And your legacy will smile.

Snowflakes scraped underneath fingernail tips When the charcoal was pressed harder. As often as the cheetah runs with the crocodiles by the nile They do not look for each other. As often as the bees sing Only once could they muster poison and sting With a clockwork, shelter and carpentry of honey. The fruitness of a living body. The sound that gets lost in the woods Gets lost and carried Flying through the whispers between the branches and twigs. All the creatures are all but lost Yet the striking fur Shocks Hunters into firing hot shells across and the falcon fell. A shouting cull The silence that meant that wildly blooms have been collected. A bouquet was calling the passing hours Wrapped in the scraped white spirit of the wooden towers.

As often
I know about lying on broken bones, beading into my back. She was missing something. She was lying on hands searching through the trench coat of a bathroom romance, watching butterflies melt, She was becoming herself At four thirty am I write her account, embroidered in a diary of lullabies, “this is what death must feel like, being left alone in a street screaming of footsteps and blacked out whispering.” She threw deliverance, caked over old vengeance, out of the car window with daybreak’s kisses. She writes, “I sit in the heavy sleet of the delta drowning in resurrection, grime from age wipes over me once, twice, The broken blood pools out of ‘I love you’s’ and islets.” She slept with the darkness. “Prayers don’t come for me anymore.” She glitters, shivers, tactless as a teacup in an earthquake, She is awake. ”I am awake.” She documents God- "I feel God," - in herself. "In myself.” There is a silence. A burning, left, cold to dry alone, This is for her. Call it, my face, swathed in the impenetrable darkness when it is no longer my own, call it an aunt’s love when a mother’s doesn’t suffice any longer. Call it, cigarette buds and elevator rides to death’s door. Call it power bubbling up from the violation. This is for you; call it Cuban cigars, show tunes, and Marylyn Monroe; call it misery. Missing, call it hues and paint, my life prostrated on a disgruntled canvas. Call it fate. This is for you. Call it liquor stains and tarot cards in a fit of ecstasy. Epilepsy, call it the most intricate balancing act of existence. An unseen performance, a lyric with no voice, “a cry in the night” ”a scream of supplication” The hunters’ march to death, the Holy Grail’s melting between your fingers, civilization pouring through veins, “death, destruction, life, happiness, Azrael, Abbadon, blood, Rome!” “I don’t want to feel this!” Call it whispers of unspoken meetings and witches in the night, threatening, “I know you!” “No you don’t! Leave me alone.” Recognition. “I don’t want to listen…” She writes, “I loved you… On purpose and…you left me, with, myself.”
