"relieves" poems
A horror movie scene as the heroine escapes. Everything is still besides her convalescing breath and the distant, chasing wind. Not a noise is heard except the fall leave's rattle and the birch wood's moaning bark in the moonlight. Her body slouches into the protection of a lone shed, and shrouds itself in the aroma of cut grass. A tense brow relieves and tired eyes close, thankful to receive the momentary peace. A possible misstep turns the wary peace on end with the jagged cut of broken leaves. The once relieved brow now concedes surprise as wild eyes are cast towards an opaque barricade. Sly pieces of garden equipment leash a weathered jacket in place as she attempts to stand. A cackle is heard, a shriek undone. To spite the brittle wood, the formulaic jump-scare-skeleton-hand bursts through the shed's solicitous walls, set to declare the last of a weary soul as his own. The wind catches up and spearheads any hole it can find. It begins whistling around the dim room like a tornado elated to havoc behind a castle's walls. The tree bark howls, the leaves, now delight. We learn there is no reprieve for a begging champion. The camera backs out of the splintered hole, and pans over a silhouetted forest to face the waning moon. The hero succumbs with muted screams to a gore far below and out of frame. Our only closure, a black screen, with bright white letters, slowly scrolling up. The end.

The End // A short story experiment.
The lull of a restless night relieves my senses It's monotone silence maintains my breath The cold night breeze enters through an open window It whispers soft tunes and attempts to put me to sleep The humming of an exhausted laptop helps me decompress It distracts me from overthinking and blocks out my stress As the night goes on it starts to rain It comforts my senses and cleanses my pain This time-worn house cracks and creaks It talks of troubled times and how it came to be This place I call home proves i’m never alone And it's always there to support me

The Sounds of Midnight
your smile shines in every season In spring it blooms In summer it blinds In autumn it relieves (me) In winter it warms i would not know what to do without you and your shining smile

The Victoria plum-tree that we planted this year Is now full of blossom that looks lovely from here The creamy white flowers and the brightest green leaves Makes beautiful colour as Springtime relieves. The garden of Winter, this year so wet Does blossom herald a ‘best Summer yet.’ It’s quite true of course that village life so snug Can have a tendency to make one feel smug But for years our’s has struggled, it now has no shops And a pub that’s near closure though it still sells the ‘hops.’ We don’t take it lightly the community here For we know we could lose it which would cost us all dear. It’s not really the money though the costs would be great But there’d be no Village Hall and no Summer Fete No chats with our friends over stiles by the field Nor any more eggs from the local chicks yield. We don’t take it lightly the community here And we will fight to keep it which will cost us all dear. ©JRW2014

A VILLAGE
Music kills my pain, It speaks to my heart, It relieves my stress, Makes me dance, Makes me laugh, Makes me smile, Makes me think, Music is powerful..

Music
In pubs with bar flies. Kronenburg, Becks, Carling, Stella Artois and Fosters, Dancing in our blood, Utterly inured; we are endured by all: The solipsism most profound. And when Johnnie, Jack and Jameson join, The sentimental and the morbid Are conjoined. And **** In the custody of beer halls, The shadows that draw, fade, And calls – e’en Death’s! -- are put on hold! No time; instead, before the last, another pint. For in this hallowed inn, Drinking what’s in the glass, And espousing the glow within, Cares regress. No woes, Or loaded psyches, For when the pressure builds, The best: a jet of yellow bliss, Relieves the pain, On Armitage Shanks' porcelain.

Mirror by Kajal Ahmad, a Kurdish poet loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch My era’s obscuring mirror           shattered because it magnified the small and made the great seem insignificant. Dictators and monsters filled its contours.             Now when I breathe its jagged shards pierce my heart and instead of sweat I exude glass. Keywords/Tags: Kajal Ahmad, Kurd, Kurdish, translation, mirror, shattered, magnified, dictators, monsters, jagged, shards, sweat, perspire, leak, bleed, extrude, protrude, glass The Lonely Earth by Kajal Ahmad loose translation by Michael R. Burch The pale celestial bodies never bid her "Good morning! " nor do the creative stars kiss her. Earth, where so many tender persuasions and roses lie interred, might expire for the lack of a glance, or an odor. She's a lonely dusty orb, so very lonely! , as she observes the moon's patchwork attire knowing the sun's an imposter who sears with rays he has stolen for himself and who looks down on the moon and earth like lodgers. Kurds are Birds by Kajal Ahmad loose translation by Michael R. Burch Per the latest scientific classification, Kurds now belong to a species of bird! This is why, traveling across the torn, fraying pages of history, they are nomads recognized by their caravans. Yes, Kurds are birds! And, even worse, when there's nowhere left to nest, no refuge from their pain, they turn to the illusion of traveling again between the warm and arctic sectors of their homeland. So I don't think it strange Kurds can fly but not land. They wander from region to region never realizing their dreams of settling, of forming a colony, of nesting. No, they never settle down long enough to visit Rumi and inquire about his health, or to bow down deeply in the gust- stirred dust, like Nali. Bi Havre (“Together”) possibly the oldest Kurdish poem loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch I want us to be together: we would eat together, climb the mountain together, sing songs together, songs of love, songs from the heart, sung from above. I want us to have one heart, together. Many words in this ancient poem are in doubt, so I have excerpted what I grok to be the central meaning. And because Kajal mentioned Rumi, here are my translations of Rumi: Raise your words, not their volume. Rain grows flowers, not thunder. —Rumi, loose translation/interpretation by Michael R.

For so long I wanted to be water An element that soothes and saves For I was born of fire Wild, destructive and difficult to tame I tried to dull my flames In order to gain some control Though the spark deep inside me Wanted freedom to console The hatred I held inside I couldn't accept my role I wanted to be everything I wasn't The ocean, the rain, the winter's cold How can I run free When all I'll ever do is destroy The fire that burns in me Is a passion I can no longer avoid I finally embrace my element As it is in my nature I want to be free to be myself I've never felt more sure For so long I longed to be water An element that subdues and relieves But I was born of fire With a warmth that burns so passionately I am a candle that provides you light I am the fire that warms you whole I brighten your darkest night I thaw the coldest hearts and souls

Today again I saw a gate in the sky. Streams of pale light trickled through it. I no longer looked at the sun, only straight ahead, My silhouette reflected in the ***** tram window. I looked farther, hypnotized, sipping words veiled in the dust of the autumn sun. Dry spaces. Leaves. Golden bile sparkled, And no one saw this wonder in the sky. At the stop, in the crowd rushing by, An experiment took place: A man wrapped in copper threads. He searched for relief while anger bound his soul. He fought the air, attacked with words, Like a puppet moving in convulsions. Hands clenched, anger in his eyes. “This will pass, this will fade,” I thought, Moving to another car. A primal tremor. A change of frequency. Someone is turning the **** of our universe. How many more cells of the body will they spoil Before it is ground to ashes? Until all ends in colonization, A reward for micro-souls from another world. People sunk in their minds do not hear the hum of strings. And I plead in my thoughts: listen, look, be your reality. Behind the gate a hundred weeks ago, a crackling gramophone plays. My calm relieves someone’s thoughts. Somewhere, thousands of hours ago, the past becomes the future. Next time when you pass by me, indifferent, the warmth of my thought will warm your Dry, wrinkled hands. I will never know You, and I would like to know what you will say when these trembling words arrive on the wind. In the autumn glow of the setting sun, Like a gentle brushing of leaves at the next opening of the gate. I will be there in the crack like a stray thought that wanted to become immortality.

Kajal Ahmad "Kurds are Birds" translation
How could I spell out love when it is absent of her name? The way her eyes reflected a sunrise, the envy of Eos She was like honey in the sky, the amber of her energy enraptured me       I was bewitched She was a masterpiece drawn with starlight, unfathomable beauty An ivory sculpture crafted by the hands of a god, masterpiece of Hephaestus I remember the time I was blessed by that smile,      A vilified promise The scent of patchouli and the taste of my favorite tea Like ambrosia for a mortal, that sweet taste of paradise Sunflowers and the many other favorites that she gave me      Stolen without a word She used to call me late at night to talk about her day But the days for me got longer, I couldn't keep her entertained Such a coldness hid underneath the warmth I thought she gave me      Gone like a ghost in the night I thought I was breathless because I loved her, now I’m suffocated by the agony She was killing me underneath the sweetness, constricting like a boa And when I close my eyes to see the memories lapse she's still in them      Haunting me like she wanted Eros' is golden arrows struck me hard and shamelessly Through my heart and left a scar, chasmic and wide Her toxic serotonin left me high, addicted to her energy      A limitless euphoria I spoke to the gods above and I told them of my love What a liar she's made me out to be, the clever snake I begged that Aphrodite let my words reach her      But they fell on deaf ears Now I pray that Anteros relieves me and hears my plea Unravel these feelings in my heart, lift the anchor of her name Don't let me be the sole carrier of the blame      For the ruin that remains

Where is that hand, That motherly embrace, Which comforts in its ****** - That motherly hand I can trust? Where is that hand, That warming caress, Which eases the nerves - That cocoon of soft curves?   There is no rest anymore   In thoughts of exile and escape;   My being is shaken to the core,   My soul bent under the stress. Where is that hand, That soothing absence, Which cradles you gently - That silence of calm and mercy? Where is the hand, That promise of better days, Which relieves innocently - That convincing “don’t worry”?   There is no rest anymore   In thoughts of exile and escape;   My being is shaken to the core,   My soul bent under the stress.

That Hand? (2021)
No matter how many pills No matter how strong No matter the cocktail of meds I can't seem to be who they want. I can't be the ideal human I can't be that model of society I can't bring myself to swallow their rules I can't stand up and swallow their pills any longer I know what they want from me I know how they want me I know what everyone wants Everyone but me You know what its like Depression dragging behind you all day The psychopath in you screaming to gain reigns The crazy illusions as schizophrenia settles in The lack of anything as the sociopath wraps you in a blanket The madness that you've grown to love As it all slowly takes you your handed a cup with a pill It is the cage to keep your mind as it is alive It lets you step outside the hovel of your mind And lock all those memories and screaming away A new you Is it really you anymore Our reason is based upon who we've grown up as Why can't we think how we were made too Why are we to blame when we didn't raise ourselves The key to your mind was and will never be the pills The medicine is just a cage to mold you how they want us The key to our happiness is and will always be ourselves Its in all of our minds That sickening depression do what relieves it The psychopathic beast inside unleash it The schizophrenic visions embrace them The lack of humanity that blankets your mind Let yourself do as your supposed No one in this world can make you happy all the time No one but ourselves We are our own master of mind. If reason doesn't suit you release it. Madness is like a comforter when you wake up on a cold day It will keep you happy and healthy Accept the medicine if you want reality If reality even with the cage isn't comfortable come with me Dance in the madness of anarchy Let your mind run free Let yourself be who you were born to be

Before I die please tell me how you do all this , How are you carrying me? how you kept a stupid me sharing extreme bliss, How you do all of this ; being polite and kissing with your prayers, Knowing that may be it won't give you what you deserve and end up devastated with a sharp spear , That spear dipped in poison of pain, And sorrow along with only threatening thunder but no soothening rain, The rain which relieves the painful emotions, Which are highly toxic and in extreme end up with potions , It's not just a big heart which take all hurt inside , And just pushing endless Love outside, Even if I annoy you; tease you or push you off the ease and stab you from inside , You don't manage you just put them aside , Put it in the trash can and wrap me with care and made yourself so polite , Is it really possible to do without no reason at all, Or there is something like a big treasure at the end of this fall? I mean really is there any big worth behind all of this? Or just it's only you and only just board me up in your boat; oh no not a boat it's a ship , Ship carrying every thing which can make things more than ease, Counting from a little help upto a endless number of beautiful moments with , Are you a human? do you really exist? I have numerous of questions for you; will you stay in contact forever ? And if you don't I don't have a problem but I wish for you God must give you happiness in a big basket everyday and a person to love you every second.

Orange (Based on a Prompt)
A soft smooth motion  across the skin of your feet- A peaceful touch of grace  that strokes the knots and relieves the strain. The stressful day complete, no bickering or complaints. This calm, this quiet  must remain for the sake of our brains You must realize, It's the end of the day- You're safely at home And everything is okay.

Everything Is Okay
And now emerges white bits of sunshine; Eyes urged to wake, and tongues to pray; To Lord of the worlds and of nights and days; That we be pure in the heart and mind; Feet saileth lower amongst one another; With such admiration that lasts forever; Faithful heads bow and touch the pious floor; Pearls of rewards doubling behind the door. And His beauty is deeper than solace; More luminous than desire and grace; He asks for love, chastity, and firm abstinence; He longs for faith, modesty, and true penitence. Praises and glory are floated to Allah; Mouths recite and phrase la ilaha illallah. And claim their very peace upon beloved Muhammad; With dear respect from the deepest roots of hearts. Winds might blow and grass might be green; But we fear still, the restless Might of the Unseen; He who watches and renders all our affairs; He who breathes our blood and strands of our hair; And do fear Him and seek His Abode; For we shall cease and retreat to our Lord; As this earth fades, where His end starts therefrom; And sees our deeds since we dwelled in mothers' wombs; But Allah is ever fair, filial, and loving; He is the Keenest, and the Most Heroic king; He rules perfectly the East and the West; He listens to what flows within every chest; And He is All-Forgiving and ever Merciful; He is swift to both the living and the dead; He relieves tears of the believing souls; He lives and sparks, within our very breath. And He is but ecstatic like the rainbow; Nothing is more countable than His tomorrow; His Warm Hands are what we all rush for; His Words are a poem, like never before.

Desperate these words, Chasing fleeting shadow, Echoes flocking like birds Amid myriad distortions, The unquiet mind's sorrow. In birth chosen for sweetness, A bid for attentions of one Soon fade mere whispers, Weak and defeated tomorrow, Exhaled anguish unheard. Written lines would have best Been spoken in ears years ago 'Ere time flowed its course, When ever softer verse Might shimmer Then a symphony, Maybe able To drown life's other sounds Like Mozart, loud as one can turn up. Would there be any remedy Which relieves burdens of memory... The music of dulcet strings Does dull stings, still only temporary; And since abandoned, Thoughts of more ultimate things. So still, some poet's quill Crafts dreams into sparrows, Sets fluttering free Their unnatural wings To sing a song of regret, Share madness with the winds.

Crafting Sparrows
We sometimes cry like kids Simply because there is a kid Inside each of us ... We often cry like kids Simply because we need to do so To relieve ourselves ... We rarely cry for nothing Simply because we need someone or We need something to cry for Like loss of a dear person or a dead pet ... Our precious tears are worthy of Precious diamonds when we really cry From our hearts anytime ... Crying relieves us and we need sometimes To cry like kids ...

Crying like kids
They say wisdom comes with age, but i believe wisdom comes to those who seek it I've learned to take every chance that comes my way That self-motivation actually works How laughing when I'm down actually cheers me up That other peoples opinions about me don't matter That drama stops by cutting out the people who create it That I can't force feelings my heart won't accept How crying relieves my soul That my curiosity and assumptions always kills a part of me To talk to people that understand what I'm going through To stop caring about people who don't care about me any more To love those who are in my life with all my heart How God is with me and will always be with me That my life isn't mine to control That the love of God is all I need and no man will ever love me more than He does That to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Undue Significance a starving man attaches
The monk shows me the scar where he took the bullet the 70s fiery rebel is now a Shiva-ite by faith. I try to see in his eyes remnant of youth’s spark believing the fire never dies from time now buried in the dark. The March wind blows the dust banyan trunks make a cool shade in the lull he relieves a past no way could he obliterate. *A time was I held a gun the police was hot on my trail day night I was on the run in the pride of being a rebel.* Cast shadows an eerie silence now evening could no longer wait I wave to him from a distance Shiva waits on him to meditate.
