"proliferating" poems
Identifying this domain, naming it life, Thinking am I the main, just hiding in disguise, Exploring the world gaining in size, Singing endless stories to my side, Working for the day when answer will become one, Myriad possibilities are there to come, Questioning is this the one or someone else has to hum, The dreams becoming reality, when life will be calling and acceptance will come. All will fathom one and one will fathom all. A journey will welcome a journey in rise. One will start understanding the blunder, And never will the veracity of a dream be in plunder, A proliferating uncovering will arise, And Sapiens will ask Is this world suffice?

A Life to come
When we think about the choices in our lives When we fight and we bicker and become bitter When we think there is only power or powerlessness If we can realize that there is power and powerlessness Then haven't we began to acquire consciousness In that instance haven't we began the process of choice That there is those who have not have given birth to this consciousness To those who have only lived powerlessness And know nothing else Haven't you owed them part of your consciousness That you have ceased to be one of them Or your mere power has denied one of them That there is no choice for them Because they haven't birthed that consciousness And if you choose power they'll remain powerless Because within you there is no loyalty, right? It is a choice predicated by an erroneous concept of self-preservation It is a treacherous dichotomy; doesn't make sense This is not an indictment of your desire not to suffer Because surely to hold power would cease your suffering But it is this type of power that thrives on the proliferation of powerlessness This conceptual understanding of what it means to have power That is not what we've come learn, but readily ascribe to That a mind and body can cultivate power That can be harvested, shared, communal For the sole purpose of the survival of the other, not the self That that can survive in this world is impossible Its antithetical to the modes of production In which our societies operate and thrive How can workers begin to derive power from their collective efforts How can workers' purchasing power equal the power of the production of their labor How can any community in any corner of the world escape The misanthropic missions of first world free trade capitalism When will we reclaim our escaping humanity When will we cease to keep feeding the system with our minds, our bodies, our labor How much longer can we become fodder, scraps, waste feeding the machine And don't think that you are safe when you have made it When you have entered the circle of dominance Because it is then when you will loose your humanity or die It is at that apex of power that your presence becomes Just as dispensable as that of the powerless Because to maintain that circle of dominance Requires a total conversion to misanthropy The rigor with which your power will be required To keep proliferating powerlessness will give no break And when you become useless, it will replace you So that we must realize that the modes of production That we allow to exploit us In powerlessness, or the semblance of power Can never safeguard our humanity How much further will we allow power to be concentrated So that soon we ourselves, or our children won't have a choice Won't have the consciousness of power just powerlessness

Modes of Production: Power and Powerlessness
When we think about the choices in our lives When we fight and we bicker and become bitter When we think there is only power or powerlessness If we can realize that there is power and powerlessness Then haven't we began to acquire consciousness In that instance haven't we began the process of choice That there is those who have not have given birth to this consciousness To those who have only lived powerlessness And know nothing else Haven't you owed them part of your consciousness That you have ceased to be one of them Or your mere power has denied one of them That there is no choice for them Because they haven't birthed that consciousness And if you choose power they'll remain powerless Because within you there is no loyalty, right?

Everywhere, on the sidewalks, in the gutters, right outside my door. Flourishing in the streets of Tegucigalpa, like leftover confetti from Mardi Gras. Lining the paths, nestled in the gravel, the broken concrete, and overgrown weeds. Coloring the landscape with orange and green. Proliferating around garbage cans, discarded bottles, tires, and take out boxes, liberated to the acrid landscape around.    Men, cutting back the peels, devouring the tropical flesh, delectable, united to pits. Dark skin and eyes, their accents singing, so different from my own. I stepped carefully, but always underneath, a sweet stickness, clinging to my soles. A bond to the red dirt, platanos fritos, and cattle roaming the street. When I returned to the wide boulevards, pristine and meticulously clean, I stopped watching my feet, looking for mango peels underneath.

"Funny poems aren't taken seriously", the figure splashes verbal acid over the crumpled piece of paper I handed them. Refusing to laugh Curling their lip. The paper quickly, without a thought, thrusted back into my hands. They leave behind my thought which fills the space between myself, fidgeting alone and them, striding away. *Does it have to be serious to be taken seriously?* A mental court gathers itself around me Myself, a defense attorney Pointing a stained finger at the figure on the stand. I present the shoe-eating Peruvian and his limerick friends. Generations of drinking songs often crass, but lasting. There is laughter from the jury There is hope for the poems. Then my final evidence the crumpled paper I read it aloud silence. Is split by the dull chuckle of the figure elbows in suit jacket pressed against the stand. "Sure, there's examples from the past, but you? the troubled kid? the depressed one? the pariah?" I glance at more files, appearing, my name on each. analysis, evaluation, diagnosis, test. Laughter, the type that jeers, grows into a crescendo. I huddle, hands over ears, creasing my suit but the muted version is worse. I stagger to my feet. The court has morphed cruelly into an arena of sorts. Brutal, simple, life-ending decisions are made here. My jacket is gone My cheek openly bleeds My sleeves have ripped revealing the scars below. I hurl out, from deep within me "It's because I'm ****** up that I need to write it! Don't you understand? Making people laugh keeps and edge off the old habits keeps the thoughts where they belong!" My voice is hoarse. The arena tightens. Even as I say it, I'm overwhelmed by the thoughts That I do not belong. That a funny poem punctuated by my fingers despite their past harm delivered from my mouth despite its harsh denouncements and shared by my whole self despite my self-banishment is not enough. I sink to the ground, stripped of my senses. My poems have turned course once helping ease pain, now proliferating it. My fingernails pierce the palm of my hand through the crumpled paper and two drops of blood strike the tiles. I meant for this to be a funny poem But I guess it's about why some people need to write them.

A barren field, now I sit wasted. Had my time, but it's passed. The children have grown. Boom, bang blast. Breaking out as flowers bloom. Forget me nots, they are not. As in my barren field I sit. Unforgiven. Proliferating as an incendiary device. A starter of fires deep in my heart. Filled up my mother of wombs. Once they burned out of control. Curse my heart and my soul. For me, myself, I die insolvent. Wailing in maladies of loves lost attachments. Why may this be, I hear thee say. I disregarded them, I wanted to play. The heart of the matter. Who mattered was me!

The Joys of Parenthood
♠ ♠ ♠ Pseudo-Oriental visions Haiku, Tanka, exotic terms Vapid New Age vibe-transmissions proliferating eastern germs… Anarchistic thought collages Existential lacerations Nihilistic heart-massages Incoherent lamentations, Communism on a mission, grievance-mongering, stewed in hate; pounding Fascist fusion/fission chanting harshly “ours the state”, Hymns to Gods who choked on ***** undertaken in overdose; rocks that never rose to comet rolling – but ending comatose, Hipster ironies, tongue in chic Metro-wimps who feign the normal, Redneck rantings up the creek semaphoric,  semi-formal, matron’s maudlin observations, motivational hypnosis, (sentimental medications offered prior to diagnosis), coldly abstract neo-nonsense read (by dullards) as cutting edge, letters void of correspondence; well-trimmed words’ linguistic hedge. Climate whining (tried untrue) with eco-prophecies warning doom, Wiccans and tree-sprites trying to undo the curse and lift the gloom, Feministic tribal ranting, Race-complaining, agitation, GLBT gallivanting – all are blights upon our nation. Boring modernist excess, (no longer daring  –  formulaic) confounds –  yet never can address what’s wrong, and so becomes prosaic. Lists like this are perhaps  the worst; another symptom of our times: we who are woefully unversed in rhythmic complaining that rhymes.

Stuff Poetry Hates:
Lightning. Crack. Thunder. I split. Straight down. Gazing up. I see. The 4th Horseman. Standing split, where I stood. I see. The Beast. Proliferating in my absence. The Horseman, crooked smile and evil gaze. The Beast a chaotic shade of nightmares. I lay, dying. Watching. What I refused to be. I, existing in them. But now split. I feel their darkness. I feel the burn. They walk over to me. Throwing me aside. They cackle in a blood curdling scream. We exchange looks. We embrace the end.

4th Horseman & The Beast
Skeletons of shadow teach me anatomy from inside the ark. Quiet. Old women at the double doors. So dark, the sanctum. Heaven is stained glass. Fold your paper hands, your husband Mumbles under the preacher's emphysema. On the mic, Occasional screams of raspy black-and-white noise. Screams. How He screams. Red-faced Church-parent. Little Easter bows, The snarling bouquets who sting and follow the grass-green Moon. Of the ten mounted fans, only one stays awake enough to listen, Awake enough to hope to catch every particle of sleeping dust. We were made from dust. The mountains too. I can't see. The concrete days. Cinders and spiders and cracking tile. Roaring, wailing, proliferating my thick umbra in the mesmer flask. When the door opens, how will I feel? Glass and sandstone. Will I have my face or someone else's? Eight faces by four. How will I taste? Cinnamon and lapis. Will I have angles or planes? Metric and function. Little, silver words trail fingers through me, trace me, and cement me. I glisten once and then am spent.

She Waited for me On the corners of life And all the other destinies we have yet to reach She waited While taxi cabs of time With flashy lights Of forced fake opportunities With horns of loud disturbance Like musical madness Mandatory for all the people Stopping by Waving hands of rhetorical questions With cigarettes of flying ashes Like the sand boxes that measure time Upside down But she refused She refused because she was waiting for me Her eyes so sincere Like poems of honesty Long lost in humanity With a laugh of a million stars Colliding to form a mirage of happiness Mixed with a sense of existence Like no other… She waited for me But I never came Her delicate soul Lingered her impatience a little longer Her urge to be vivid Was tamed by the desperate dullness of my presence Her circumventing vibe of light-like energies Were hindered and toned down Just to feed my egoistic Patriarchal sense of self Lacking the properties to be a proper man She waited for me… As I struggled through The worldly matters Breaking glass of shadows Fighting sin of forbidden years Destroying fear and respect With a sense of anger Clutching knuckles of regret Proliferating rage But she was waiting for me So I fought I fought for her waiting She waits for me to fight And all of a sudden I realize That I was waiting for her I was waiting for her all along… She represented the life I never lived The decency I never had The courage I kept within my words And the light for shadows I lurked behind And the light for the shadows I now could not seem to find.

She Waited for me On the corners of life And all the other destinies we have yet to reach She waited While taxi cabs of time With flashy lights Of forced fake opportunities With horns of loud disturbance Like musical madness Mandatory for all the people Stopping by Waving hands of rhetorical questions With cigarettes of flying ashes Like the sand boxes that measure time Upside down But she refused She refused because she was waiting for me Her eyes so sincere Like poems of honesty Long lost in humanity With a laugh of a million stars Colliding to form a mirage of happiness Mixed with a sense of existence Like no other… She waited for me But I never came Her delicate soul Lingered her impatience a little longer Her urge to be vivid Was tamed by the desperate dullness of my presence Her circumventing vibe of light-like energies Were hindered and toned down Just to feed my egoistic Patriarchal sense of self Lacking the properties to be a proper man She waited for me… As I struggled through The worldly matters Breaking glass of shadows Fighting sin of forbidden years Destroying fear and respect With a sense of anger Clutching knuckles of regret Proliferating rage But she was waiting for me So I fought I fought for her waiting She waits for me to fight And all of a sudden I realize That I was waiting for her I was waiting for her all along… She represented the life I never lived The decency I never had The courage I kept within my words And the light for shadows I lurked behind And the light for the shadows I now could not seem to find.

Spiced Autumn air Swirling through my home It peppers my memory With sadness and hope It brings me back to seven years ago, I was a broken-hearted girl Perplexed over the telephone, I tried so hard but he had made the decision to close his heart But here I am now, Older and wiser Still dreamt of his distance last night But truly, My waking mind is over it It's just my life is a river And I'm going deeper into it Once on the surface There was so much agitation So I held my breathe and went under, Trying to fix the cause of my turbulence I've definitely healed, And learned a lot Both the easy way and the hard way These little internal shifts That I've been making gradually For seven years Have produced something beautiful in me Breaking through the seams of my previous tortured being This river is winding, So I never know what awaits me But I've married uncertainty Knowing it's always pregnant with possibility I haven't met any cultural milestones I'm not cool, popular or trendy All I have to offer this world Is a broken heart on the mend But still I'm full of gratitude And calling in more For though on the outside I don't appear to have arrived I have a root of joy inside my heart And it's rapidly proliferating As my gratitude grows.

So what did happen to old Cocky, Swearing away, profanity? We gave him a new abode, A cage in a nursing home, Old Cocky struck it lucky, Full of parrots, like he, Cocky believed in sharing, Oldies heard unique caring, In his inimitable way, "You fat f...ing c...s, get out of bed!" Not sure this is what geriatrics meant, Cocky and Co. abuse the residents, Yes, Cocky was communicating, Soon every cocky was proliferating, Cocky's happy ending! Let's pray, He is still alive and swearing today!

Cocky's Happy Ending.
a glance a word a gesture a little sigh a formula the neighbor’s greetings the train schedule a note on your door quite clear to understand not long ago now seem to foster strange significances the code for unequivocal interpretation no longer works ambiguity hovers in mid-air you hesitate and ponder before you speak begin to choose words carefully hoping against your knowing that this would make them clearer yet feeling that it does not really matter that whatever you say may be received quite differently from what it is meant to convey likewise what you hear and see appears to lack precision possible meanings proliferating connotations of irony, deceit, hidden aggression threaten to shroud familiar sense make you question old axioms in fearful apprehension of unperceived realities signs of a loss of self? your brain dissolving? senility approaching before its time? or just too much of that foie gras and cabernet the night before? will it be gone tomorrow with bright sunshine and blue skies or darken your remaining days under leaden clouds of doubts and insecurity? Or is all this just a reminder that you should take nothing for granted and that the only constant in life is change? * * *

Karate, Karate is a game of skill Its not about having those big muscles Its not about the number of pounds you can lift with one hand All those big chests and six packs Karate is all about skill You ask yourself a thousand times Why am I failing thinking of giving up Maybe sometimes in life we apply wrong methods in wrong games Life is not the survival of the fittest Neither how strong you are 'physically' to fight battles Nor how many wars you have won in less than a second Its all about skill and wisdom Skill can serve your energy that you can fight when necessary You wasting your time chasing an ant with a gun Lions and beasts are waiting Then you will be caught tired and exhausted, loosing the game Why cant you just light up the fire and move on I see the tears of the broken heart Crying in pain and distress, of the wasted years and energy Just because they gave their whole effort feels like they don't deserve But if all the power that you posses failed, why not trying the other method Like using the skills that you possess You know why we are educated So that we might have skills on problem solving in the community If it wasn't skill, education might be a cipher, turning to be soldiers of war But that can not stop the ravages of overwhelming diseases proliferating our society This failing economy can never be brought back to life Maybe our businesses cannot flow smoothly like a river after the storm But we need doctors Economists well skilled and trained To make solutions with a pen and a page Because some battles are not worthy fighting.

Zombification (10w)
I rest my consciousness On the proliferating meadows That stretch toward the sun, That sway in placid solitude In the tacit winds That flow across my body. I rest my consciousness In the stars of the night That caress my jaded visage And assure me that my wishes Will manifest themselves Within my beating heart. I rest my consciousness Atop mountains and peaks That envision a world of harmony By harboring the aspirations Of those who stand atop them, Awe-struck by the omnipresent calm. I rest my consciousness In the landscape of my thoughts That, like the meadows, Will stretch onward Until I draw my last breath And exhale dispassionately. I rest my consciousness In the world of make-believe, In the world that accepts me Not because I am normal, But because I can only be content When I channel my inner wordsmith. I rest my consciousness In a night filled with silence And, as I close my eyes And let the dark fall over me, I grin, cognizant That my dreams are boundless.

sick sad pathetic little world
We have this peculiar practice, both of us. We partake in the delight of nothing. We are two walls being vandalized. And then we are the same walls being photographed by onlookers. And we become the complicated eye of the strangers. We become the beauty they try to subscribe to in strange calligraphies, bent caricatures, and flagrant peripatetics. We have the most outlandish of penchants, especially when nothing happens while everything happens. Forget the sidereal zeroes of this equation. We are one unanswerable phenomenon tractioned by a willing cohesion. Put into mouth what fingers cannot do. The one in pursuit is divided by blame and the other a fugitive. Mind takes space when absence does its duty. There is ease in accepting that a body impaled in a moment may bear no gravity. We have disparaging repetitions. We invest in invented lives. We know not much from here but we know the end it tries to exact in itself. The silence teems in that probability: all static, intrinsic, and jarring. We both know a fine day when it happens. Lurking sounds of hermetic space brought to life by informed choices. Clinking of bottles and the silver of fish on the platter. A book stolen from a place where everything is organized – strangely enough, the disarray people are capable of with their hands is not preempted by a custodian. We have godless moments. Say for example, this body houses a river and on its flaxen waters we have already let go of everything. Soft waters gnaw flesh and shadow off immediate impulses. We have bizarre practices, both of us, separate. Desire is dispersal. Weathering the diaspora is grace. We both are gilded by attendance, and in rooms fat with people we are marauders of space together with them – our lives so unobstructed, free, and proliferating. Why can’t we house ourselves? Why can’t we cling like ivy to walls of stone, melancholy to walls of blood? We have this peculiar practice, both of us. Separate. No warnings, no conveyed messages, no alarms. To be unmoved in moving, to be moving in stasis.

Convoluted emanations of the intellect Proliferating pillars of translucent light Spheres of thought orbiting infinitude Ascending past the perception of time Colliding the past, present and future Creating the void that is imperceptible To arrange the very fabric of existence

Transcendence
It’s wrong for me to say I love you, When your heart is somewhere else. Now I say it’s love without a clue, It’s funny when you feel your heart pulse. I see his soul and feel his Zeal, I pace myself as nothing feels real. If I could take his pain, make him smile, Feel his joy and embrace him all the while. I just want to make him happy, And I know it’s not my place. Should I fear what I want – Why, A fear to just reach out and touch his face. I’m more than a little confused, And I don’t know what to say. A friendship to which I’ve mused, But I know there’s a price to pay. I’ve walked this one-way street before, Using analogies like, waves on the shore, It’s like hitting reset and zooming back to start, But this time it feels like I may actually break apart. All Consuming Darkness prickles on my skin, And I really don’t know if I’m fighting for a win. The twisted wreckage of a once proud man, Who’s really doing all he can. The life you saw and boy you knew, Watched the light fade and the shadows grew. I lose my mind one sunrise and moonshine at a time, One Tick, One Marble, One innocuously innocent crime. In the darkest corners of my proliferating insanity, Lurk the creatures of nethermost intensity. Inside it churns and bubbles and writhes, One rolling tear that never dries. His passion lights fires, an unwavering warriors soul, His determination gives purpose, a true survivors goal. Holding back the tears, floodgates at the ready, One Day, One Minute, One at fault, unsteady. Phantasms abound unreal reaction, You are the embedded One - real distraction. I find no comfort in the darkness only consolation, And when the light shines deeper, stark Isolation.

Eyes shut down on a dead city, I sense the vibration of my deep inhalation. (All the snickers lost their lustres.) Mouths closed beneath the galaxy of prosperity, I gasped at the tremor of my heart's creation. (The siren drowned out the deserved cheers.) Still my thoughts flashing into reality, Reminiscing the fingerprints of those gone before me. (Fingers all poised to my forehead now.) Listen in on the silence of the cosmos. Suddenly my self control collapses----- -Out////to///the////air my////rages////flew like////servants to////my////pride- The vibration that is me explodes, a seed of fire leaps through the weeds. (They all fall back now; I raised higher my fists). Proliferating in the ashes, My memories, my love and my deathless ambition.   A spasm of colors as the door crashes, I am here against all their mean wishes, Claiming the shameless vanity of being unapologetically me. As I exhale.

Breaths Away
In dreams we meet per chance pausing briefly- with that boyish grin whispering your voice deep sensual "you're still beautiful"... A pain proliferating from the void bereft of joy longing to scream in shock and horror.. You are still short balding larger around the middle yet those hateful words of choke... unable to return the pain you gave. A heart that surrenders Only to melt in the pools of your deep hazel eyes... "It is good to see you too.." Then you fade into the crowd. and out of my dreams.

In and out.... of Dreams
Boxford (Trees) Something wicked Towering over All that lives below, All seems quiet Until a storm initiates Armageddon on the lives beneath. Newburyport (Snowball Fight) You ever hang out With a dude you think Is a complete ******* But then you realize, After a wholesome Snowball fight, that He’s actually still ******* Terrible? Salem (Fake Witches) Demons are supposed To be horrifying- Morbid creatures Who wish the destruction Of all mortal begins. So yes, I’d consider You salem freaks “witches.” Haverhill (Badasses) The towers here are Reinforced with pure Awesomeness- If something was going To fall, it would have Done so already. Dogtown (Real Witches) The four mile hike Was terrifying. Each sound Proliferating In my mind As we walked. There were witches there alright, And at anytime, they could extend A cold hand and pull you into the night. Plum Island (Heath) Oh ******* **** My tank is low Why did I drive So far alone? It’s cold and baren Not a life form in sight, I’m about to break down- -And campout for the night.
