On that western isle, bathed in gold- Drenching sun, my only, giddy love, Weaved a daisy chain and crowned Herself, above the clouds and purple- Violet seas, her grace, topping yellow- Sparkled weeds, to flower, marching In fealty, round her red, reign of crown, Soon, after new mornings impromptu Coronation, misty, bluer, eyes felt slow Distant dread, the subtle, burning fate, The inevitable nights of overthrowing And fade of love's noble, corona light. Were I shaper of dream, I would build A grand labyrinthian castle of granite Stone to contain that day— I would Conjure a moat, impervious to shifting Time, the mute corruption of sorrows Waking.

I'm feline in my approach slender-sleek and silent footsteps like ghosts on stairwells and whispers in your ears. I have nine lives and I've wasted them all stalking you through concrete jungles and labyrinthian words and feelings.

On that western isle, bathed in gold- Drenching sun, my only, giddy love, Weaved a daisy chain and crowned  Herself, above the clouds and purple- Violet seas, her grace, topping yellow- Sparkled weeds, to flower, marching In fealty, round her red, reign of crown,  Soon, after new mornings impromptu  Coronation, misty, bluer, eyes felt slow Distant dread, the subtle, burning fate, The inevitable nights of overthrowing And fade of love's noble, corona light. Were I shaper of dream, I would build A grand labyrinthian castle of granite  Stone to contain that day—  I would  Conjure a moat, impervious to shifting  Time, the mute corruption of sorrows  Waking.

And we're off ... the week has started ... is it every day we're reminded how fucken dense this man is? how utterly, immeasurably ignorant is this solid mass of orange nothingness that's tinged with the green of envy, the dark bile of bigotry, & the ever present yellow of moral cowardice, shaded with coal black labyrinthian hollows & dense thickets of double-speak & blatant lies. Oh this man! This pitiful caricature of every far-too-rich fat cat you laffed at in the Sunday comix, all over-fed yet never satisfied, trophy wife upon his velvet arm, shy & lonely son left to play with imaginary friends in a gilded palace of pillowed luxury & golden gushing faucets of milk & honey & all those fancy trinkets that declare to himself each day, ... "Oh how I've made it!" This bottomless well, this mind of vacancies & negative sub-atoms, pure void of edgeless darkness infinite & oh so very still, this encyclopedia of the vacuum, this mole of the intellect, this dustbin of the present, overflowing with inane tit-bits of elemental irrelevance, this! & the horror is of course that 60 odd million Americans gave this jestered fool the reins of power in the most powerful & consequential nation on this fragile & hurting one & only planet earth.

On that western isle, bathed in gold- Drenching sun, my only, giddy love, Weaved a daisy chain and crowned Herself, above the clouds and purple- Violet seas, her grace, topping yellow- Sparkled weeds, to flower, marching In fealty, round her red, reign of crown, Soon, after new mornings impromptu Coronation, misty, bluer, eyes felt slow Distant dread, the subtle, burning fate, The inevitable nights of overthrowing And fade of love's noble, corona light. Were I shaper of dream, I would build A grand labyrinthian castle of granite Stone to contain that day—  I would Conjure a moat, impervious to shifting Time, the mute corruption of sorrows Waking.

The Composition of Shadows (II) by Michael R. Burch We breathe and so we write; the night hums softly its accompaniment. Pale phosphors burn; the page we turn leads onward, and we smile, content. And what we mean we write to learn: the vowels of love, the consonants’ strange golden weight, the blood’s debate within the heart. Here, resonant, sounds’ shadows mass against bright glass, within the white Labyrinthian maze. Through simple grace, I touch your face, ah words! And I would gaze the night’s dark length in waning strength to find the words to feel such light again. O, for a pen to spell love so ethereal. Published by Contemporary Rhyme and The Eclectic Muse. Keywords/Tags: writing, poetry, night, monitor, glass, phosphors, webpage, internet, social, media, world wide web, facebook, twitter, maze, labyrinth, sound, pen, ethereal

The Composition of Shadows (II)
Explore my labyrinthian corridors, From the walls to the hallways, to the unkempt floors. 'Tis in my mind I finally realize, I have not the time to explore each and every door, Precious, singular thoughts, Expectedly drowning, but in due course, We are lost at sea in an ocean devoid, emptied by the mindless wars.

Explore
Out of nothing came something It must have, it had to And in its destructive Rebirth I’d be glad to Ignite the incipient embers Of change And watch as it smolders Again in the flames Of interminable Labyrinthian corridors Sentient prison walls Trapped in my nevermores I didn’t ask to be gifted Nor cursed With the revelatory Epiphany thirst For an arid and barren Deserted desire The moisture eluding My lips in the fire
