"securing" poems
From one thousand mountains the hawks flights are gone Soaring freely & thinking clearly through the clouds in the sky Not looking back persevering to fulfill the dreams The dreams aren't solely an illusion in the mind But a preview of future times For the reality in the hawks mind is dreams of happiness Clashing between difficulty & a paradox of what is seen & what is not seen What is believed has 20/20 vision A clear sight with no eyeballs But a driven mind with great visual Anticipating the future of success Feeling blessed and alleviating stress Persevering and passing all the tests What lies is the wind which is the past Securing things of desire at last Achievement is a good friend Resulting in a fulfilled end. . .

Connoisseur of Dreams
The first new star flashed waves of blue tonight , securing my belief in the afterlife A grove of ferns lit my imagination For I became a shipwrecked captain - that stumbled upon an island nation Exploring the deep jungle without machete , potable water nor compass Knee deep in mangrove forest Tropical winds whispered and moaned A lean-to of fronds became my maritime home In the presence of a million stars An army of sand ***** paraded before - their newfound master from near and afar Crashing waves lulled a poor sailor to rest The whispers of Poseidon A dream about a lookout in the crows nest Counting orbs in the tail of the Milky Way- with visions of mermaids , ghost ships and rogue waves

Skipper for a Spell ....
~ *Learning to patch. Learning to mend. Learning to venture. Learning to comprehend. Learning to capture and befriend. Inventing the berry. Inventing the cream. Inventing sweet slices before bedtime and the Fragaria colored dream. Loving new life. Loving each child. Securing the stem and raising the vine by loving the wife.* ~

The Highest Excellence The highest excellence is like (that of) water. The excellence of water appears in its benefiting all things, And in its occupying, Without striving (to the contrary), The low place which all men dislike. Hence (its way) is near to (that of) the Tao. The excellence of a residence is in (the suitability of) the place; That of the mind is in abysmal stillness; that of associations is in Their being with the virtuous; That of government is in its securing Good order; That of (the conduct of) affairs is in its ability; and That of (the initiation of) any movement is in its timeliness. And when (one with the highest excellence) does not wrangle (about His low position), no one finds fault with him.

running my hands through your messy hair leaving trails of kisses on your neck, your back heck, even the air your hands lingering all over parts of me, once hidden and untouched, kissing and mending the scars on my body my lips pressed onto yours gently, passionately a sweet taste grasping movement, driving me to insanity your securing arms taking full control, making me feel like home wanting more, taking over my soul our bodies intertwined moving in the same pace sharing the same heartbeat, intoxicated, addicted filling in a lustful place storms of kisses hurricanes of love a needy touch, exchanging smiles forming one, or ten, thereof those moments we've made love remembering makes me sick but **** in a good way a breathtaking way, this feels so nostalgic. -djs

Things are quite rocky in today's world wouldn't you say? Hate is growing stronger, as a consequence love is waxing cold day by day. Celebrities are securing riches while the rest of the world succumbs into sickness. Everyday Americans are going into foreclosure, others can't obtain jobs to pay their monthly dues. There's even a battle on the news based on who has the right to use a particular bathroom. Simultaneously there's millions of homeless people starving and sleeping on the streets. Meanwhile it's breaking news that Beyonce is having twins! Still, we never hear CNN mention the pedophiles that were arrested in California. Which resulted in 450+ arrests and counting, the veil has been lifted if you have open eyes to look. There, there you can go back to sleep now... Continue dreaming about Beyonce's twins.

The Matrix
middle of rehearsal and she says, “mix it up! stand by someone from... a different section.” making eye contact with that choir boy, secretly wanting to stand together, wondering if he did too. so without hesitation i moved. one quick glance, determination in our eyes, we were ready; and we plunged into our song, harmonizing to the soprano melodies, making our voices climb and sink back into our lower ranges, supporting one another. the entire medley- my voice strong his voice stronger, my adrenaline rushing his calmness securing, my exhilaration rising his soul smiling. nearing our triumphant conclusion, closing together in perfect unison.

choir boy and i
Spilling the juice all over the floor, Missing you each day more and more. Listening to music- new and old My decisions getting a bit more bold. Shutting the door louder than usual, My mind is starting to get delusional. Loving you without a doubt, Hate seeing you with other girls out and about. Scrutinizing every mistake I write, Only to view every poem I spite. Luring the unknown into my room, Chimney blows wind in with a bad fume. Securing my own locks on doors so fragile, My body always wanting to move so agile. Leaving your life and entering his, Wisdom hit but so did his fist. Sobbing on the cold ground, I wish I still had you around. Listening on what to do - my friend’s advice, Maybe I have to start trying more than twice. Sending mixed signals and causing trouble, Will only ever lead to a burst in the bubble. Lacking thought or too many to count, So many problems I have to dismount. Serving my old yet new figure, My body tired, and oh-so-bitter. Latching on somebody to stay, Words cannot explain my feelings at play. Shouting loud but not loud enough, My brain's gone into a severe slough. Crying for extreme help, I cannot do this by myself.

Bittersweet Thirst
It's not about going back to the start. It should be about pausing, rewinding and going back to a point where things made sense. It's about understanding why they mattered then. And think if they still do. If acceptance is securing personal victory by conceding, then I accept.

Acceptance (V)
When it comes to strong form When angles are always precisely norm Grows an alluring mathematically touched creation Inspired by pure calculated scientific divination Such an alluring symmetry to behold Causing the circle’s envy to unfold For this angled beauty’s strength enforced Its sold core mass equally divorced It’s rigid looks captivating us all Luring architects to its enchanting call Ancient Greek hands carving stone shrines Securing their beauty for all times Its slight outer angles enduringly tease Yearning us to brush with ease Who came up with such design? Was it indeed a gift divine? However it did come to be We all can enjoy with glee Well all but rectangle and square As they sulk with envious glare Murmuring curses over hexagon’s slight curve Endlessly plotting to mathematicians they serve Scheme upon scheme developed to suppress The sheer allure designed to impress Despite all this the hexagon persists Engaging us all in mathematical trysts Never will we lose an eye No matter how hard we try For the beauty a hexagon reigns Over the kingdom of geographical gains Forget not what you see here Our ancestors have made it clear Line upon line attached in twine Measured precisely from sips of wine The hexagon is a wonder indeed Allowing us our own mounted steed

A grimoire of nuptials apporting The implored cadaverous knight Securing obsequious omens Stirring the sleeping metals of Chaste belladonna, glistening Elf-locks entangled with Hellweed Vowing until the golden bowl is broken Clasping the devils paintbrush promising Before the garrulous black mass Leering upon Vulcans mirror Cursing the covenant of faithfulness With a moonstone band Evoking a vixens wedding Sealing with Adams holy ale Their oath as the belfry rings Resounding admist white sepulchre. ELEETE J MUIR.

Soul Knotting
Warm candle light Back drop of dark night Sweet soft music Arouses senses I can taste the atmosphere Oil I pour To touch is to explore But not just skin on skin Details deep within Are you just like me, getting high on joys of Spring The Suns Ray's, the daffodils gaze The cherry blossoms haze Or are you a little darker Like a warning tribal haka A performance for they eye Deep inside you cry, till tears run dry You no longer know why Is your coffee strong and black Or sickly sweet of bitterness lack A limited edition book Hardback, rigid spine Securing tight the story inside I won't hesitate to turn your page Of autobiographical love and rage I'm not interested in what you show on stage Your brutal truth is what I crave

By Candle Light
Fountain of youth runs in his veins, The man who lives in Sycamore Keep. His circadian clock had come to a halt, Rather than rejoice, he sullenly weeps. You would think that immortality is The pinnacle of human existence, All the time in the world and not a Single malady to be of any resistance. Yet there he sulks, the ageless man, Cauterized by the turn of each century, As loved ones breathe their last and Become a parcel of his fractured memory. But that is just the shell of his woes, For even with all knowledge amassed, He’s utterly aghast with the state of the World unwilling to learn from the past. Every crook and cranny explored, Every experience well savored, Now monotony for millennia to come, His longing to live has ebbed and wavered.   I was told by the man of Sycamore Keep That immortality is a curse so alluring. Indeed, a hundred cultivated years is Much better than hollow eons securing. But sir, think of all the riches you’ve accrued And mastery of all science and philosophies. Who wouldn’t want to have the time to mark The world and purge it from all its atrocities. Say no more, interrupted the ageless man, I applaud your idealism and optimistic delusion, But you’re missing one essential element -- Even as immortals, we’d still be only human. And to be human, is to be fallible. Let’s just say That immortal fallibility will engender no good. It'd be best to truncate our lifespan for the Sake of our survival, yes truncate we should.   And that’s all I heard from the man of Sycamore Keep, Who went on his way to his millennial weep.

stôrm/                      a violent disturbance of the atmosphere.                                                          of my atmosphere You are the only one I lived through. - In a sense of comfort and survival. They warned me about you. They told me to pack my things while I was young and had time. They told me to pack light because I would need what energy I had left.                                                                                           THEY TOLD ME.   but I believed you would be gentle. I knew I had done just the right amount of observing and that I  had   you figured out. I told them not to worry about me because I knew exactly what I was dealing with. I told them I would love you, no matter the damage. "There is nothing that cannot be fixed." And to this day I'm still holding onto that, trying to believe it. This home I spent 22 years building and securing, is now one with the ground. My walls that I finally found the perfect shade of teal for, all red now. Standing in the middle of this ruin, no windows, no door, nowhere to hide. I have fallen into disrepair and you meant to do it. It's in your nature and I knew it! Was it confidence or ignorance that led to my unseeing belief in you?                                                       (your ability to be tender and serene) "The calm after the storm..." Is that what I was supposed to hope for? No, of course not. I should have known better than that because we all know Storms never do last forever. © 2014 Rhea Nadia

Today was celestial Safe haven I've homed Your hugs, calmly and warm Securing me in our own little world So delicate yet so ardent Don't loosen that grip I feel so strong yet so vulnerable at the same time. Oh, just a brush past my skin, A tight clasp around my wrists I melt. In your arms I find comfort And in it, a piece of solace I feel infinite You made today ethereal.

Hold Me Close
I use ‘oh, my god’ as an expression not of faith, but surprise, of wonder at beauty untouched by ideology or dogma as if caught, and pulled, from a dream. I exclaim ‘oh, my god’ when stunned not by holy ghosts, but the living, who do kindness as though it were nothing unmindful of securing safe passage into heaven, or paradise. ‘Oh, my god’, I cry, when words fall idle or are muted to quiet reverence. Where twisted skeins of empiric memory, rush in crashing surf of reminiscence and nostalgia. I am godless, but not without reason ‘oh, my god’ being a slip of historical, idiomatic vernacular. Even as curiosity drives me to understand your own ritualistic, devotional motivations. Raise the cup, my friend it gives us both what we need. For you, transubstantiation for me a divine and luscious tableaux. For Saint Teresa in her ecstasy no doubt exclaimed ‘Oh, my god’!

Being human can be incredibly painful But to be human...to truly feel like a realized human being is to feel powerful...is to feel an out-of-body experience because we realize that we are beautiful, brilliant... and deserve to feel what it means to TO BE FULLY HUMAN and nothing less. That our dreams, our aspirations, and our capabilities cannot be restricted by artificially constructed restrictions. And because of that we cannot allow under any circumstance for the humanity of anyone to be negated. That every inhale we take without helping legitimize the humanity of one more, Is further securing the chaos which threatens our own. That to love another human being, no matter how strange or familiar, difficult or easy Is to really understand the profoundness of our own humanity... Is to love ourselves. And because of that we cannot fathom a world Where anyone is negated the ability to love. Whereby the consciousness of our fullest potential Understands no artificial restrictions Knows no terror, war,or attack that can silence the eternal soul of its truth And can only conceive of a world where everyone's humanity is legitimized

To Be Fully Human (Nothing Less)
I was born with ovaries for a brain And a cavity for thought The predisposition To put my hand down my pants At the age of seven But with a good berating From my unconditionally loving mother The putrid seed was recognized Its stem ripped from my mind Torn from my ******** Too late Obviously Too oblivious To notice that the roots still tangled around me Its vines growing up into my ****** The **** that encapsulated my mentality So the birds and the bees were my friends At the age of nine And that cute boy across the playground Was cuter when I envisioned him naked Only a mere three years later And my susceptibility Ignited the sight of cybersex The capital *** Or more commonly known as *********** But when my parents soon discovered The poisonous vines of dependency The toxic ivy of addiction It was forced to an abrupt halt Too late Obviously Too oblivious To notice the compulsive ************ That kicked in with the involuntary lust For a pillow to trust under my hips Before the age of fourteen Securing the hypersexuality So that the hot girl in the hallway Was hotter when I envisioned her naked And hotter than the boy next to her So the bisexuality Tormented my already demented desires By the age of sixteen Simply because I was born with ovaries for a brain And a cavity for thought.

Rolling down the hill laughing, tumbling not caring; free as I get coated in grass stains and mud Careful not to smudge the mascara, applying eye liner and sigh in relief to have not  sullied my face saving embarrassment Giddy selecting sweets from the colourful array to buy with MY money; as much as I can! Glancing at my seemingly large stomach in this dress I opt for a salad; as always (bland) but at least  I'll be slimmer Card trades, the politics of the playground, using trickery and bribery to get the best, feeling like a boss Eyeing him with a secure hand in his, falling hard, to notice her gaze at him and subtly securing dominance of his heart. The door bell rings and there stands the gang ready with bikes and water guns to surrender ourselves to the sunny day The Suns out and the lighting is absolutely perfect for a selfie so with a stretched grin I snap, Photoshop and Instagram Toys R Us our haven and envious glances at those who could afford the best and most exquisite Bratz sets or card sets The rare visits to the Apple Store are exciting even to just gaze at the new iPhone 5 and hold it awhile.... The joy oh the joy of reading time, together we sat and took turns, enjoying the sharing of a tale With my phone in hand not a minute goes by that I don't check my Facebook page for notifications

Childhood fancies
the feminine bleeds not always red, not always white seldom enough for words - she inters herself, crouched chambered, begs for cleansing, hand held cupped round- her curves familiar to self, unknowable; unselfish giving - she bleeds, not enough mutilated even by her own kindness, cradled without righteousness, coddled by an unnamed nebula .....she curses her own image, and likeness slivers it, cuts it raw, for dead left - visible a world denies knowledge with sacred alibi - scribed hieroglyphs, scrolled - she bleeds white, and a desert conceals her face calculates her dance - her movements mythical, she cries inside out tears of salt river-ed, rested underground, a birthing place securing her masculine seed coming to light -  Madonna paints her face black, *"Oh Czestochowa, pray for us Oh Mother - we beseech thee"*.... She bleeds - red,  the world turns with season - she re-seeds our flesh feeds us with her ***** prior to the sacrifice -"Witch, it is, Witch....burn it," conceal in alabaster stones lone, unmarked - her womb tomb it only in site of an unflinching god - hold him, birth him in sorrow grieve and give him,  his blood shed "take it ,drink it" - red,  she bleeds - seldom enough as the masculine prepares for HIS resurrection feminine for trial He is reborn - she never dies she is Wisdom (Sophia) eternal He - Godhead she - Feminine denied....

Black Madonna (Femnine denied)
Calculated or spontaneous movements, both quiet and loud We are who we're becoming, we were born to be proud But pride has this level, pride has this curse Pride has this tendency of making matters worse Pride is crucial and necessary, but pride causes pain Pride is fear of losing one's edge and in turn losing potential for gain But do we really have an edge, or just a lackluster illusion? What's this feeling that keeps us inside this self-securing dellusion? Sometimes I wonder if just for a day, I took all my pride and threw it away? If I said all the words I've ever thought to say, would I see things start to go my way? If I stopped telling myself the world can't see me without a mask Creating a vision of openness, while leaving vulnerability all in the past While I'm strong, and strongly convicted to my honesty I'd rather lie wholeheartedly, than admit I feel weak Because remember that word, that strange hovering boulder That tells you to take your welcoming heart, and make it turn colder But what can we say when pride keeps us safe? Really what can we do? Whenever I've tried to push it aside, I've felt things that felt together unglue If the stakes don't matter than prides not a factor, we know what to bring Yet we'll sit where we are, afraid to move for anything worth anything I'm hoping one day, I find a new way to keep my soul safe That I'll stay proud of who I am but not too proud to try That I’ll look back to how I used to hold back and I'll be laughing I'm starting to have faith, stranger things have happened
