What Hope Remained? What hope remained when hope for hope was spent?         When putrid plumes dulled morning into night         Hope lived in heart-struck deeds of bold intent,         As mortals wept and earthborn angels went         With downcast eyes to clamber heavens height. What hope remained when hope for hope was spent?         When panicked sirens wailed a lost lament         And backs were bowed beneath ungodly weight,         Hope lived in heart-struck deeds of bold intent         As boots bore souls up treadmills burnt and bent         To scale a void devoid of dawning light. What hope remained when hope for hope was spent?         For those in sight of angels heaven sent         Atop the world to aid their mortal plight,         Hope lived in heart-struck deeds of bold intent.         When wingless brethren conquered feared ascent         To gift last hope to all who saw their might:                 What hope remained when hope for hope was spent?                 Hope lived in heart-struck deeds of bold intent. In The Fall I chanced upon a stranger in the fall, Cosmetic garb of office black and white Portraying calm demeanor of his plight As shadows panicked on a stricken wall, And oft' I find my mind in numb recall To look upon that helpless human kite Who tumbled from the terrors of a height, Yet graceful as an eagle in a stall Before it plummets earthward --   'Neath the pall Of twisted steel rended by follied flight, That stranger lives forever in the light Suspended in iconic timeless sprawl.         I wonder, in the briefness of his fall,         Did he derive the meaning of it all?

To Be Continued Try to praise the mutilated world. Tweet the lies of love with lustful lyrics Lustrously laminated by lives of the lost Reluctantly remembering repressed memories Hidden, but recovered. Mutilation Malicious mysterious misunderstood Multiplying in the masses Magnificent. Praise Powerful prideful Portraying pure pleasure from answered prayers Proposing purpose. The world And abyss Empty like a full moon’s blank stare Echoing ignorance. Shall we challenge the Author? Is authenticity virtuous? The growth of an insatiable species To be glorious, to be remembered, To be continued

To Be Continued
When things get tough, She cries a little. …. Every single time, she contemplates it, If it’s portraying her as weak, Or is it okay to cry a bit? What if it’s actually making her weaker? What if her biggest fear is creeping it’s way out of the pit? …. She holds herself, push back the tears, But all her efforts aren’t worth, All it takes is two words, From someone, her presence who seeks, And she lets two drops roll down her cheeks. …. When things get tough, She cries a little, Then, She buckles herself up, In the end, only she gets a little tough. …. Love ❤️

Post 1: Silent Weeper
I am not what I am, Nor am I what people say I am. I am a locked box, Full of things I cannot share. I am sly as a fox, Often portraying that I do not care. But this of course is untrue. What do I desire? You and your unyielding fire. And yet I can never seem to tell you. Who am I? I am the unknown.

The Unknown
Fingers cut palms as hands turn to stone And a catapult hurls the projectile home Knuckles collapse from bone meeting bone Down in the alleys where miscreants roam Suggestions of violence fill gutters with blood Fill heads with the sense of nefarious thrill Their skin turns to ash and their brains into mud Rage in the kingdom of eager to **** The children are soldiers who train everyday Cowboys and Indians, Robbers and Cops ****** is plot and the actors will play Portraying the place life will come to a stop Violence is cancer, and love is no more Edge of our seats waiting for the next war Dedicated to the deceased and forgotten, Love and Peace

Violence, a sonnet
the dendrites don't know what's right anymore. the tipsy balance is falling off the table, and there's nothing there to stop it. gravity is such a ***** but, so are a lot of things, and i can't seem to grasp onto anything good anymore by standing right in front of the doors that lead to something better. i knew it when i found my body still in the second row of the dark movie theater, crying at the smiling stars on the explosion of a projection screen. i'm pretty sure i was feeling sorry for myself lapping up some kind of enlightenment. i've been too nice for too long, but i've been old since the day i turned eight. that was when i learned about the rough bodies portraying the new style of *** on a vhs, and my eyes stung because i didn't want to watch and it seems to hormone driven boys that it's ingrained in my dna. i have been uncomfortable for ten years now. but not as winded on the day it burned a hole in my solar system, the milky way told me to love the metal hearts and always be kind. i can't do that anymore, there's too much anger in my stomach for my body not to convulse in shame. it was never my fault, but everyone else likes to think so and i've always held it gently so no one else would have to breathe in sawdust and exhale hurt. i always had it covered with my hands lined with fortunes. palms, can you tell what's in store for me now?

**** in patterns.
*Upon a bright spring morning, In the warmth of the ember sun, Adorable chromatic koi's pose, Graciously leaping in a distinctive pond. Casually stroking their fins, In a flattering array, On this delightful, And cheerful beautiful day. As they glide smoothly, Hiding underneath huge stones, Preciously playing peekaboo, Each in a beauty of their own. Near a tall brick wall .... beneath the purities of cascading waters, Portraying a lively show, As the zephyr gently embrace, And the waterfall plays a soothing percussion, as it flows.*

Preciously Playing Peekaboo
There was once a parable, an earthly story portraying a message that would be told in reference of our life: A sower goes out to sow some seeds. However, there were some seeds fell on the wayside, and were swallowed up by the birds. Yet, some seeds fell next to the ricks, but there was not enough earth to keep the growth of the plant- so, when the sun came out the seeds were scorched from the earth with minimum growth, but without the roots to carry on its growth process. Yet, some seeds were placed in the thorns; so, those seeds were choked by its death. The last sower was able to find good land, where seeds would grow to a hundred fold. There is a mission: When God asks us to plant seeds, we are asked to have the oil with us. Without the right concentration, there are concerns of thorns who can choke you up. Because the thorns are sharp and dangerous, only God has the power to devour or to destroy them. A thorn is stubborn, and will continue to process threats of no promise, but the cuts it can process. Some thorns can be hidden, while a red rose blooms beautifully on the branches of a rose bush, there is no reason to believe- the thorn bush wants you to grab the beautiful rose to dig into your skin the anger it holds for you. Hence we have the earth to produce God's mission, but without the oil and concentration, there are only rocks that will go nowhere. Yes, unless you plan to move the rocks out of the way, those things will always remain. Only God has the power to remove the blockages out of our lives to make success in His mission, not our own. Rocks also causes pain. They are heavy, stubborn to move, and are often in the way. When dealing with rocks, their mission is to block the truth blind us for which what is said is to be hypocritical to the naked eye. However, what the rocks do not know, they may block our message from reaping, but God can remove that rock, placing them where they will work better. The rocks are the most stubborn for sending a message when the rock says, "Here I am try to move me," however, if you remove a rock from its place, they too have a purpose, and knocks the whole scenario outta-kilta. The situation is that while seeds could grow, they die off very quickly without roots. The question is: Does it take a brain surgeon to help us decide where to plant seeds? Do we need to express the dangers of rocks and thorns? Where do we lay our hearts? Is our hearts in the thorns, being tangled and sliced- or is our hearts being crushed by rocks? Is our oil being dripped by the holding back of thorns, or are the rocks dying the oil up? Our hearts need to sow where there is promise.

Can I gently lure myself into your life?   Make you feel as you’re forever in my arms, when you’re alone in bed at night? Whisper all the sweet words into your ear until I see you slowly and slowly fall into my deception and lies Make all things that’s wrong feel ever so right May I lead you into my home and gently place you on my bed Look straight into your eyes and speak words of significant meaning As if they wore worthless and dead Can I bring comfort into your heart? I’ll make you feel so loved and serene I’ll disguise myself as being the man of your dreams While I prey on my next victim to control and lead astray In the same manner I lit up your light blue sky, I'll make em truly dark and gray Can I drag you into my deceit, forcing you to make me the center of your life? Can I pretend to love you and untruthfully envision you as my wife? Portraying to be your blessing, Disguising the hidden lesson I‘ll make you fall so deeply in love with me That you will have to pray with all of your might For the Lord to bring you out of the darkness and make everything vivid and bright Can I take you on pointless dates and sit through meaningless movies and earn my way between your legs? Cognizant that this bond means loyalty and trust to you so I’ll take it slow and just **** you instead Can I make you believe that I AM the man that can protect you from all the hurt that this world can bring? Then I WILL up and leave you  on a beautiful day without any logic reasoning Why? Because I seen a woman with more beautiful eyes. I seen a lady that smelled as sweet as a rose. I seen a gorgeous woman with a smaller nose. I seen a lady with a beautiful body and attitude so fierce. I seen a woman with a smile that'd burn the sun and hair flowing past her ears. I tricked you into developing such love for me that, I took it from your mind to love yourself I display myself as a perfect man, so you wouldn’t go and fall for someone else Like a thief in the night I snuck in your life in the mist of you lying hopeless I played your Knight in Shining Armor because I knew you were a Damsel in Distress Your weaknesses, I feed on until I began to bore myself of fraud When I seen that love was all you needed I valuated my hand Weighed my decisions And I played my cards                               Copy Right 2013                                     ©Patty Ann

Look up Hipster! We see who you are. Unique! (placing yourself neatly into a distinct group, now no one will mistake you for something your not.) I wear flags around my belt! And balloons! People talk to me. I am beautiful. (makeup stained around my vains, clogging my pours, worrying about my un-curled hair) And I am wearing a dress! (portraying innocence) But I dance like a **** I am just the right amount of easy. Yes! *** for fun. And a place to sleep, for I am without a home. Hello Alejandro! I am happy to hear you miss me! I miss you too. And you.. Maybe tonight we will finally make love! (if the others don't find out that is) I saw you acting a fool today. Ha! In a land of fools! You are not crazy to me. whatever the mass has decided. **** them. (They alter and sway as a release of energy cycles throughout creating a sealed force. You can feel it as you pass by. It is pulsing. Our bodies have created one.) One. It was Dubstep! Hello water! And air. I Love you, for you only have one way: Perfect and moving like the cycle of life. I am glad you are here to remind us of you. Yes! You may be touching our skin, but we are often blinded by your beauty. Sorry. (My perceptions alter and change floating between different variations of happy-) then sad. I worry, then lay. Allowing the sun to sink through me recharging, recharging all that I have. I watch as the others do the same. Floating consistently up then down. We are Angles.

Among the stars his memories travel. Just trekking. Just trekking into space. Whether illogical or logical. To him, it must make sense. For his mission was never impossible. And actor closely connected to Mr. Spock than many portraying the part. He beamed truth to the millions fans of Star Trek with his wisdom and vision. Whether upon the deck of the Enterprise next to his Captain. He stood faithful and loyal to his crew. Now you're apart of history of various scientific studies. You're so deserving of being assigned to heaven.

Trekking Among The Stars(Leonard Nimoy)
We mourn in silence as sun shines everyday trying to bring rays of hope and smile to millions desperate In darkness of the night Moon gives hope through the reflected light of the golden sun portraying the same intention and stars chuckle by like millions of orphaned children wandering our dark world Technology which brought in abundance has left us in want machines brought in to give leisure has left us with no time at all Virtual net which brought people miles apart together has resulted virtual bubbles of gloating egos we are together yet alone and isolated in this world of paradox serpents of guilt keep dancing around yet the cloak of fear blinds us we ignore and without even us realizing all that we do along with all other beings residing on this beautiful earth we just mourn blasting our lungs out in silence

We mourn
Time has passed since the first time I saw her, There more I looked, she seemed to look better. Didn't have the courage to tell her this long, Mustered all of it and now I'm portraying it in a song. When I'm with her all I get is good vibes, She's too beautiful, too much to describe. To get this girl there's nothing I wouldn't offer, Days pass by yet I cannot take my eyes of her. But there's one thing that I still can't see, Like how I look at you I wish you look at me. Sleepless nights, meaningless fights, being in spotlights, loveless love bites, And much more I have done in this world, But what more do I need to do to get the girl? Somewhere down the line, When everything's fine, I may forget everything, But I'll always wish you were mine. I cannot wait for any longer so gotta say this before I realise some other dreams of mine, Hopefully after this poem every night together we can dine. I know I ain't even close to perfect, there's every talent that I lack, But I'll love you for life, Would you love me back?

Meltdown.
How do you define love? How do you begin? Come with me on this journey and explore, The emotion of love that we all truly adore, The emotion that we all seek to receive, The emotion that makes us weak at the knees. An emotion that has been written about in Music, Stories, Poetry An emotion we have captured in paint, An emotion we long for to hold and cherish, let noone taint. Songwriters have written lyrics, declaring their feelings of desire, Different Genres, Ballads, Rock Anthems,Jazz, Rhythm andBlues, Singing of love for cars, women and drink. Singing of the Power of Love and who started the fire, Singing of pain, hurt, unrequited love, betrayal too Songs making us remember, desire and think. Music so light and pretty, Music that rises slowly to a high crescendo, Music of passion, devotion, trust and loyalty. Music that is dark and ***** Music that takes you down low, Music of betryal, mistrust and insanity. Artists take to the brush to paint a picture clear, Of women walking on a bridge parasol in hand, Portraying feelings of lust, romanticism and fear, Of lovers dancing on the beach leaving footprints in the sand. Portraying their love of the beauty that surrounds, women and children with beguiling smiles, Portraits that make you laugh, cry and stand still for a while. Artists that capture the perfect smile, Artists that capture that capture the love in the eyes, Artists that capture that moment, once in a while, Artists that capture that bond, those ties. Poets create a picture with their words, Bringing to mind lust and desire, Writing of feelings that matter. Making you cry, laugh, raising your emotions higher and higher, Using words that describe, pain, and hurt,words that charm and flatter. Poets that tell a story of hardship, friendship and survival, Poets that make you laugh, cry and bring about revival. Poets that write of emotions, Poets that write of tenderness, Poets that write of devotion, Poets that write of togetherness. Throughout the centuries we are bequiled by love, How it hurts, how it heals, The emotions love makes you feel. How it is won, how it is lost. Love at what price, what cost? How we desire love from each other, How we desire the love of our father and mother. How love can raise you up and let you down, How love can get a smile out of a frown. How love can be your freedom and yet love can smother, There is no medium that can capture all the different aspect of love for each other. Love is unique, Love can be bleak. Love is scary, Love can be weary. Love is strength, Love can be any time, any length. Love is freedom, Love can be your guiding beacon. Each and everyone of us, feels love in someway How do you recognise love? if love spoke to you, what would it say?

It was not my first intention Courting, that is Never my strongest of suits Known to closest my true emotions I let my colors speak for me The crispness of my whites Radiating pure innocence The warmth and joy of my yellows Welcoming My orange hints Full of desire and energy The subtleness of my pinks Portraying my delicacy and grace Be around a bouquet of me The sweetest thoughts of the most gentle sentiments Will arise alone from my aroma After having met my thorny stems You are rewarded by my silky texture My mesmerizing fragrance The spectrum of my colors entice I spread my own rainbow across the skies I tease, I flirt All to my liking However seducing Although said to be a natural I prefer to be picked Coat smooth as the most delicate of flowers Queen of the Garden Rosa is my name. Different needs call for different hues I am divine. I am romantic. The presence of me, pleasant The perfume I emit, calming Creative minds put me to good use A trail lines the hall Crimson flutters leave a path to your bedroom Delicately placed aloft the best of Egyptian cotton What better sight of affection to see? The flush of color to my cheeks when we meet The thumping of my hearts beat? Rose petals on the sheets? From sponge baths to massages Chocolate dipped scarlet strawberries Each affair we have is the most superb of quality My red appearance not the deepest of color But its beautiful elegance is the most sought after of shades A symbol of deep burning undying passion Signifying the most immortal dramatic love The Red Rose is The Rose of all roses. Rosa is my name.

Life's reflection glistens through sands of time. Days past due reunite with our current days disguise. We glimmer in the false light portraying us to our knees. Reaping such qualities turns our words to disease. Acquisitions conquer minds through solid demise. Leading hearts of hate to realise. We are our own living destruction. Believing such theories brought through subduction. We replenish the rot of our personality. To feast off our remaining qualities. Together we fail united we'll fall. Through the eyes of evil till death do us all. -Joseph B Schneider

Till Death Do Us All
Sailing through purple skies unhindered And breathe crystal snowflake frosted air Floated past the mysterious Weeping Mountains And yellow forests called Warlocks Fair Trembling Wandered the underworld Drunk with false courage from Cretan wine Leapt bravely from star to star Journeyed through red starred scattered galaxies Witnessing the birth and death of time The finality of the forever feared tolling The ringing of deaths solemn bell Conjured this was in my mind quite carefully For I am she who tells the tale Commanding the heavens and the earth with my pen To me the four winds bow low and kneel The water robed river nymphs pirouette   Wild horned stags vault high to my music You must admit the scene quite captivating and surreal The moon kiss my cheek with shy affection Apollo grace me with a sunburst arrow of gold Syrian lotus seed the door to the universe   Held tightly in small clutching hands Where lies stories soon to be told   She who tells the tale Sprung from blood of ancient lands Portraying in ink and script The dark images of man. @ Copyright Tammy M. Darby Dec. 12, 2018.

She who tells the tale
I am painting a portrait I was painting a portrait of my FRIENDS But instead I am only portraying what I THINK I SEE There is so much I DON’T see My words They don’t portray the friends at all They only portray how I SEE them They only portray ME Is there a painter WHO paints what IS Not what is SEEN? Would you have to be HEARTLESS Would you have to be FEARLESS Would you have to be THOUGHTLESS Let’s face it I am painting a SELF portrait

SELF PORTRAIT
It was never my intention to place you in harms way. Enlisting your heart to trouble after we kissed on that precious day. As time elapsed, my heart took a moment to understand. You were portraying your earnest emotions subtly then crass. The turmoil you must’ve felt during the time you kept to yourself… Causing you to experience agonizing despair while delving into mournful swells… Find it in your heart to forgive these third degree burns. For it was never my intention to crucify your kind soul. My love yearns to romanticize unhurriedly, Seducing passionately while intimately feeding the soul so fluidly. Is it too much to ask for an amorous exploration? For what is love without a genuine vibration? If *** is all you seek, Be explicitly direct; don’t play games that will cause deceit. Otherwise, in the end, ambivalent emotions will prevail. Crafting a false sense of endearment that will soon be too much for you to bear. I once journeyed to a crucible of love and hate. Traveling far beyond the unfathomable depths of heartache. Hopelessly exiled to endure the slowest of brutalizing pains; A light was discovered, allowing the abhorrence to dissipate. By: Michael M. De La Fuente

My Lady...
I am grounded by my own ignorance, he thought, and here, by the sheer complexity of things. This pebble at my feet seems the very centre of a radius  - of marks and pathways. Possibilities. It is a thing that connects itself with me. It is very early, before the sun has touched the horizon’s sky. I recall a poem telling of the perfection of pebbles, their being equal to themselves, mindful of their limits, filled exactly with a pebbly meaning, with a scent which does not remind one of anything, does not frighten anything away, does not arouse desire, its ardour and coldness full of dignity. I now remember another poem, portraying a pebble placed in a child’s hand, picked up on a pebble ridge. A pebble to place in the pocket where we finger it until it becomes warm. Its shape and certainty is firm and sure. It consoles us. And, as we change and decay, it remains lodged with us: a thing that contains nothing save the mystery of life. And there is a long prose poem devoted to the pebble. It starts at the beginning of time itself with a condensed cosmogony, describing the formation of the first rock as an allegory of The Fall. It ventures through the expulsion of life, to cooling, to those large tectonic plates, and all the way down to the pebble itself, or, as the poet says, the "kind of stone that I can pick it up and turn it over in my hand". Time is everywhere in this poem: Stone as Time, where the great wheel of stone rolls ever on as plant life, animals, gases and liquids revolve quite rapidly in their cycles of dying. Take this as the poet’s view of humanity: to consider all things as unknown, and to begin again right from the beginning. We need to take the side of things, he thought. Here, this pebble is time, and where this pebble lies, with its radii of marks, seems at the very centre of things. It was brought anonymously by the tide one stormy night to lie at our feet, and looks at us with a calm and very clear eye.

A click here and a click there taking snaps everywhere at the age of living carefree our generation is obsessed with selfie with a stick in our hand everywhere we stand - feeling sick let's take a pic going to party don't forget the photography every single moment is; captured as if was a bliss! fake smiles captured with a flick but we never get bored of taking click we are loosing the compassion in no way we are human we don't help the one in need; fish our camera and take snaps instead portraying poor and their poverty the name and fame won't help them any All they want is may be a piece of bread but the human in us is already dead! all we do is take a click Believe me all this is a sh*t! Extended verse - we have strong opinion on social media but in actual world we suffer anemia we like, comment and share; when action is needed all we do is stare such piteous is our condition we can't stand in unison and so its easy to break us else what the hell is this ISIS

Now-a-days...
In the night garden, Brambles scar at heart and mind, The roses bear no thorns, The buddlea, no butterflies borne, Metamorphosis into night light moths, Beetles become fireflies, Dancing round the fairy heads, The ***** screams, Portraying portents of doom, While creeping beneath the glowing moon, Dry brush wood cracks at winds intent, Hedgehog spikes, Tom cat hunts, Queen lady calls, She is his feline lover, One of many, Ladies in his life, She'll give him many babies, Never be his wife. Garden of darkness a surreal place, In daylight she will hide her face, No nightmare in her freedom space! By ladylivvi1 © 2013 ladylivvi1 (All rights reserved)

Night!
Random Sentences Everyday people will die, for a moment, you might cry, but as yourself why. Celebrate their life, don't mourn, think of all the new being born, life or death, millions are torn. Earth rotates around the sun, just try to have some fun, no fork in me, I'm far from done. I have yet to get going, like a strong wind blowing, the future is always unknowing. Be yourself, don't be fake, no one likes a sneaky snake, open your eyes, it's time to wake. Smell the flowers, smell the coffee, unlock your powers, don't be so bossy, climb those towers, no need for a posse. Nightmares used to haunt my every move, no more fears left to prove, my dreams are starting to improve. No clue what I'm saying, don't believe in any praying, my life, I'm happily portraying. None of us know the truth, about how we wasted our youth, can't remember last time, I saw a telephone booth. No creative writer is better than me, I even write, while I take a *** you're lying if you don't agree. My haters are just jealous, I like being so rebellious, love being so overzealous. Way too much pollution, no one has any solution, that will be my final conclusion.

Random Sentences
In the Old World, those of our kind had to keep ourselves hidden and work our magic behind closed doors. We were to be secret sorcerers. A mysterious kind of folk. We were accused of darkness and exiled to despair if our covers were blown. Thankfully these times are changing. With this New World Order, our fate is changing for the better of us all. And more importantly, the fate of the earth and the cosmos beyond. While dark magic is something we are all capable of portraying whether intentional or not, there is so much more good that can come when aligned with the magic and mystique, connected with the powers of our earthly just as our heavenly realms. As above, so below is a saying we all know. As it is in the heavens it shall be on earth. Peace and Protection are granted for all who believe. Gifts from nature given as tools and symbols so we may live a life of leisure and ease. For now, we are teachers shown through storybook tales. To prepare you for your future in magic that comes with being born into these great times of change; for we will one day pass our torch to you; just as you will to every indigo, rainbow, soul-healing, spirit-weaving, wondrous light-working child.

Bewitching the Switching from Old to New
Trampled, yanked from their roots, strewn across the dirt; A single, beautiful rose lay, treated as lowly as the soil beneath, Loses sight of its true worth and perfection, Amongst the several other damaged "objects". Used and abused in manners undeserved, yet she still perseveres. Replanted, freshened, and dusted off, she stands ***** Portraying beauty and elegance, others do not see the damage; Yet it is visible to me, as clear as day are the harsh conditions endured. And so is her strength, to bear another day. And so is her worth, deserving of more than the world can offer, Or that I can muster; I'll try my hardest to give her everything.
