"trickery" poems
The church field trip led to the most beautiful presence, The elegance protrude by the sweet scent. I dared not moved so hastily, I dared not the red! Glanced by the peripheral eye lids, The red beckoned the thumping beats within my chest! A visual decor permeates from the illuminating of the perfect circle, And my inner most demon want to ravage it! I wanted to devour every essense of the crescent, Becoming one with red. I slightly move forward so no eyes may pry onto my movement, Like an orchestra moved to one trumpet to a violin scurry along. Finally came side by side of the precious glimmer of the curves, And moved my hand to palm the red's grace on the tilt of it's end. I open wide to cusp my mouth to bite deep into it's brilliance, In my teeth feeling the liquid and crunchy of it's body! Sour taste of salt expand a vigor of darkness cover my mouth, I look at the apple's plate beneath me read " Ida Red!" Water upon my eyes, No longer can chew any further, I simply shallowed the chunk in my throat!   "Your elegance beckon me red, but in the end, you have seduced me to bitterness!" I dared, Idared, ida red!

Seduced by the Unknown Red's Trickery!
Listening ears don't come easy Most come with mouths harbouring wagging tongues Pouncing on the chance to retell your story Exploiting your need to empty acrid lungs Listening ears, they're indeed very rare Unidentifiable no matter how well you know Lurking behind a mask of concern and care Sweet words employed so your cards you'd show Listening ears could be just a myth An idiom to quench the thirst to confide Listening ears sometimes come with fangs for teeth Hungering and lusting for your trust and pride Listening ear, oh why you come with a mouth so foul Why the cunning trickery and unscrupulous deceit Kindness as bait, when in fact you prowl Many none the wiser until they are bit Listening ear, in you I gave my trust I bared my innermost and gave my all Hoped that you'd soothe my ailing crust Instead you lifted me high only to watch me fall

Listening Ear
Good sir, one thing I owe to you: to tell you that I hate thee true. Your sly advances show for real that I am but your body's meal, to be deliciously consumed, and have my sanctity be doomed. Repent, oh Devil, back to Hell! Sink back into your slimy well where from its spout burst tongues of fire to feed your wretched, black desire. And if you do not go today then under Earth and dirt you'll lay. I'll see that you ne'er have a breath until you've met your certain death. You call yourself a pious soul, yet crying's God's name you take me whole. You choke me up in your embrace, and tell me I'll be filled with "grace." Thy love is but a dark snake's skin, which when once shed shows what's within. Thy hands like teeth about to clench. The stink from out your mouth doth stench -just like the rotting fumes of graves and poisoning the prey it craves. Ah, sir, if you are even that. You pull your tricks out of a hat. But I can see the trickery and magic so it's plain to see: you do not love me for myself, you'd use me; put me on a shelf - another token that you've won. But put quite simply, sir, I'm done.

In reply to "To His Coy Mistress"
Azathoth, upon the black throne, steps of twelve hesitant to tone. Madness and chaos swallowed your mind, ears of the deaf, eyes dying to be blind. Shrills of discordance to rattle this hell, Creating our world as Barbelzoa fell. He sees you not, too blind to care, he can not answer to what he doesn't know is there. Before her fall, sat a throne, the purest of white, silver crown on the queen, a beauty of light. The twelve danced with compassion and Joy, the twelve being thirteen, a conjoined girl and a boy. Ripped from the twelve, the thirteenth, a faceless creature to devour, trickery and blood play, our darkest hour. Nyarlathotep, a name not to be cursed under breath, for the least of your worries will be death. In the center of nothingness, to find all that can't be seen, To be greeted by Nyarlathotep, who is far vicious and mean. Gnashing his teeth as he whispers these lies, using deceit to cover the cries. The dread he feels to speak Azathoth's name, To slaughter all who give him fame. See all the countless chapters of the souls he took, only for you to be next, carve your blood in the book.

Crawling Chaos - 2008
I beg inside my soul to have you. I don't love you. I want to feel passion, desire, and the warmth of another body pressing against me I could grab any man I wanted, but I want you. I see your brown hair let me run my fingers through, just once Your eyes soft earth Your lips pink lilacs And all I want is your body Which is very saddening. To only want to use someone, then toss them aside like trash How can you? And still fall asleep at night without thinking about a face wet with tears your fault I simply want to do to you What you have done To All the women before me, The same song as a trickery I want you to fall in love with me an instrument meets the music I want you to hold me close and kiss me, as you share your fears and truths. a melody plays softly I want you to believe in love because of me Think of me, breathe me, and miss me when we are not together accelerato tempo Until one day you meet me in a corner booth at our favorite restaurant, and I rip your heart to shreds *Look, I never loved you. I lied. I used you to get what I want. You are a pathetic, self-serving dung heap that only thinks about himself. You wooed me, I pretended to like you, so I could dig under your thick facade of masculinity, and discover your sensitive side. I know what you are--man whore--and I enjoyed using you. You can lie to everyone, every woman from this point on, but ten years from now, when you are married to wife number four and you are waiting for her to come home and she never does, I want you to crawl into the bed you made and bawl like the whining, sniveling baby you truly become at night when no one else is around you. I hope 'lonely' presses you down so hard it hurts to breathe. And maybe then you might turn into a different man or at least your miniscule brain will have an inkling of true heartbreak. Doubtful though--I win. You lose* Then I get up and walk away from you, ignoring any pleas and ****** slurs. Caesura

Sunshine! Sickly yellow slow-light colored streaks slithering worse than sweat down my body. That golden ball stares down at me like a haughty goddess, her duality shallow and hot. She cares not for the freedoms of humans. She's a two-faced coin, purgatory masked by the promise of freedom from pained brains and scholarly shackles. The sun laughs at her own trickery, gargling through melting teeth as she collects suppressed confessions from weakened teens. When her crescent counterpart offers solace from her torment, the moonlit darkness only serves to drown us and we splutter in our own self-taught year-round lies. And the sun rears her tattered, flaming mane at daybreak, belly-laughing at idle minds now unrefined, gleefully adding her own scorch to already inflamed brains.

Idle Summer
January 23, 1993 Tender young thighs and old cushions Warm places to rest her sweet head Hard sweating smells and soft fingers And hair stretched out on the bed There's a ghost in the jewellery box mirror As pretty as any you’ve seen There's a ghost in the jewellery box mirror Reflecting a tired old dream Ah but none of us know why she’s spinning When in truth she is headed nowhere Though each of us forms an opinion We must lose as the truth comes to bare There's a ghost in the jewellery box mirror For the devil is female it's said There's a ghost in the jewellery box mirror It's pretty 'til it turns its head There's a grace that we lose when we're aged There's an honour we lose when we lie There's a guilt that can tear the heart ragged When it beds down with truth at its side There's a ghost in the jewellery box mirror And all I can do is to stare There's a ghost in the jewellery box mirror I know because you placed it there There's a heart beat to count every moment We're apart and both in despair You cry for a love that is past, Dear I cry for a love is still here And what trickery has taken this anger That has witnessed your love laying dead and placed it full in the sunlight where it festered and flew from my head?

A Ghost in the Jewellery Box Mirror
Life is full of mischief and artful trickery The way through never made easy for the foolhardy Misleading gestures only employed to solely distract Left up to you to decipher and hopefully extract Experiences teach much, had you only been accepting and learning That a dove could be made to appear; out of thin air, out of nothing When the road ahead offers no more than mere misdirections Altered trajectories stemming from convenient misinterpretations Your cards may have been dealt revealing astonishing outcomes "Not the hand you get but the game you play," said some Depending on deft wrists and a flick of the wand Overnight you'll wake to find that a new day had dawned Only would happen if into the wind you hadn't spat Hope would emerge like a hare out of a top hat The play on light and shadow, nothing short of dramatic You volunteer onstage, accompanied by apprehension and suspenseful music Faced with an eager audience; you realise that alone you stand Be not surprised to learn that love is life's sleight of hand...

Sleight of Hand
I am told, You think I am too old, I am more precious than gold. If you listen to me, I will take you to a wonderful world; I'm supposed to be oral, speaking of myths, legends, fantasy, and the supernatural. When you listen to me, Then you'll know, How I become young, How I live so long. I am who I am. Everyone knows me and all the children love me. I am not a lie, In me you can find the truth, That roots you To Your Past and To The Orgin Because, It's me, the oxygen, That Cultures breath, And The nitrogen, With which THEY fly Deep In a blue sea, Like a White Dove, Like a Magical Butterfly, And With which They dive High in a Blue Sky Like an Incredible fish, Like a Blue Whale, in a Fairytale. I have no specific author, You can be my author. I have no specific time, For all times are mine. I had lived in your Heart An Art. I had had only listeners Until I was put in a Book. I was Invisible, But Now you can see me if you look, Or GUESS what? I am Unseen, Though you think that's me on that screen. That's not me, For I have always been... A Mystery, That speaks Of Happiness And Misery, Of Kindness And Treachery, Of Poverty And Luxury, Of Honesty And Trickery, Of Freedom And Slavery, So please, Hurry And Listen to me, Before you go to any cinema or library. For I am The oldest Teacher And The honest Preacher. I think you know me well now, So ask Grandma how? When you wish to MEET me. I can be for you a guide And take you to another side, I can make your world wide. If you follow me, Child! I can take you to the Woods, I can take you to the wild. In which Animals Talk And Trees Walk. And In which A Witch Has Hooves , And An Ant Wears Gloves, And In Which A Wolf Sings, And A Horse Has Wings, And In Which A kingdom, And Many other Bewitching Gems Of Wisdom.

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

I'm all too used to the touch of your absence.  Your mother's wrath in that time can be a death sentence so tragic.  But when you come back, Demeter returns to her senses expressing light magic. Life springs through the darkness, and flowers race to see who can reach the farthest.  Lovers emerge to nurture their gardens, and soak in sun to thaw out the hearts that hardened.  Birds sing songs highlighting your arrival.  Trees breathe easy seeing what their last set of leaves died for.. Yet when you retreat, mother again takes away her warmth.  The high-flyers no longer soar, and some paths feel too bitter to explore.  Bone-chill zones, a frozen reality stream.  I can't blame anyone for what's a part of me, as we fall into winter's annual dream. Queen of the Underworld, I appreciate your harmony.  Thank you for teaching me to see the depths of my own duality.  Still, I can't help but wonder how existence would be had you not eaten those pomegranate seeds.  In the darkness of winter I want to curse Hades for his greedy need to leach on life through trickery.  Though to curse him I'd be cursing myself and ive had it with the blasphemy.  Besides I too know what it's like to rely on the dead as your only company.  I ride ebbs and flows of loss and hope, but I know your presence promotes healing.  So again I'll remain as the seasons change, taking layers and peeling.  I've found in light and dark we can succeed in setting our bound spirits free.  Communicator of both worlds, I want to Thank and honor you, Persephone~

Ontological Inscape, Trickery and Love Busy, with an idea for a code, I write signals hurrying from left to right, or right to left, by obscure routes, for my own reason; taking a word like "writes" down tiers of tries until it's secret rites make sense; or until, suddenly, RATS can amazingly and finally become STAR and right to left that small star is mine, for my own liking, to stare its five lucky pins inside out, to store forever kindly, as if it were a star I touched and a miracle I really wrote.

"Sarcasm"
America, she bleeds for a full week fireworks, freedom, long sighs and holy nights spend days with the couchless and meek then light one up, sink between in her thick thighs underage trickery, plastic cards and daddies to sneak in clubs lauv on the radio and fake love throbbing hard forget ancient grudges, clean cars with new suds party again, launching fire in the sky avoid the cops and pray salvation don't come around too soon, twilight and the sea bug guts on my screen, drinking, repeat until the sun's return

independence, weak
He rubbed his weary eyes... What trickery could this be? Was it a signboard draped in disguise Or the reflection of light off a tree? Seconds ticked as he drew closer. The lady materialised to rule out prior suspicions. His fingers wrestled over the rusty brake lever, Wheels squealed their futile objections. The lady wore a face he could barely see... She had long tresses that bore an alluring fragrance. Her beauty tipped the scales allowing him bravery, Unafraid he asked, "Miss, may I be of assistance?" Her voice seemed to ride the subtle night breeze, Coating his ears like sugar laden candy. Soft and demure... Yet laced with a hint of tease, She had said, "I'm stranded in the dark as you can see..." "What luck!", he thought, seizing the opportunity He removed his sack to make space for her. His heart raced being in the damsel's good company, The lady slid herself onto the rack before they both rode together. As he pedalled hard, he felt a tap on his shoulder. Her voice came again, a tender little whisper, *"I live rather close... Not far off from here... A little over the hill... Just over yonder..."*

Passenger (II)
Finding love in an unattractive package Feels as though love needs to resort to trickery To satisfy the perverse need to be loved But, also, to show that everyone needs love Long losts to almost have Each attraction star struck and devoted If there is none Then there never was and keep moving Unattractive or not Love finds a way cc111711

There Is But One Law (The Dancer's Coda) There is but one set of laws, One that need be obeyed, One that brooks no heresy, One that gives no absolution. One that needs no priests, no canons, One that that refuses disobedience. We all bend knee at altar invisible, Though feasance never requested. The Laws of Physics. A body at rest, a body in motion. Laws immutable, unconditional, Equations, proofs, demonstrable, Inequalities inexcusable, banished. Dancer says: I am heretic, even these laws I refuse. My body denies limitations, My mind believes I will make do What it could not, but yesterday. Defiance from wire to wire is the Fuel in my veins, fear but a detail, Leaping from from ten meters more, My Declaration of Independence. My body plastic, my mind ethereal, Some mock, call it trickery, Some hail, call me hero. There are forces greater than mine, Forces irrevocable, mathematically superior. Each day my force grows as well, Visions imagined supersede the Tedium of definitions, of boundary lines. Bend the law, conquer the null, fill the void. Each day sketch, devise, organize a New rebellion, follow only one command, Honor but a single battle cry. Leap, then fall! That dancer, your only law, That heretic, thine only coda. Action is freedom. For you are dancer, Whisper as you leap: The Fifth Freedom I possess, The Freedom to Fall. May 17th, 2013

There Is But One Law (The Dancer's Coda)
#The Battleground Beneath Her Skin (A Physiology of Light and War) Before it reaches her; even before her breath draws it in, I break myself down..   not as surrender,   but as choice. Each particle stripped bare, each atom exhaled made clean by the reckoning of my own dark, infused with the stubborn weight of light earned, not borrowed. Within the responsibility of what   leaves me, I enter the quiet union— the kneeling choice to align with the hand of God, to let even my smallest fragments carry His capacity to heal. Every airborne particle, accountable, deliberate, refined enough to cross the distance, to enter her without deception. Beneath her skin, a war unfolds. It is not loud, not made of swords, but of smaller things.. things unseen by eyes, but never missed by the marrow, the blood, the quiet trembling of cells that have known both wound   and wonder. Light and dark.. not in theory, but in matter thread themselves through every atom, every strand of her being. Not metaphor, but measurable: *the way shadows lean into the soft chambers of her lungs, the way light, when chosen, can rewrite the blueprints etched into the bloodstream.* This is the battleground.. her body, her breath, her most involuntary places. Where no poetry of seductive manipulation.. no whispered counterfeit can cover what is real. Only substance speaks here. Only intent. Only what survives the fire of accountability earns the right to stay. The particles come; stripped down, atomized, refined.. not by accident, but by the slow, steady grind of volition. They enter her; through breath, through pores.. *through the quiet, relentless openness that even fear cannot close completely.* And inside-- the war begins. ..   ..   ..   .. Mitochondria spark— tiny engines deciding what stays, what burns away. Capillaries widen, rivers branching through her like tributaries willing to carry what is real, what is earned, what is Light. The counterfeit falters here. Pretty words mean nothing to oxygen. False portraits dissolve beneath the chemistry of truth. The cells remember;   they choose. And as the Light infuses the quietest corners of her.. her thighs, her hips, the soft stretch of her waist; there is no seduction, no trickery. Only the hard-won intimacy of substance made pure. Not by the blending of oils, not by the friction of skin, but by the deeper, unseen alchemy of what enters, what lingers, what refuses to bow to darkness. The battleground is hers now. And though the shadows  will not yield easily, they cannot claim her; not where light has been chosen, earned, metabolized. The war is not over, but benea.th her skin, within her blood, *Light has begun to rise.* #

Debates, filled with hate, candidates, go irate. Put it on national television, for everyone to see. Make a disgrace, of our beloved country. News lies, babies cry, watching innocent people die. The world falls apart in front of your face, with issues like the economy, borders, and race. The news lies, babies cry, watch our innocent people die. The world falls apart in front of your face, with issues like the economy, borders, and race. ****** scams, and robbery, all over the **** TV. Bias reports on politics, this is how we get our kicks. Violence, lies, and trickery, overload the dying TV. You will soon find, they’re hypnotizing our weak minds. News lies, babies cry, watching innocent people die. The world falls apart in front of your face, with issues like the economy, borders, and race. The news lies, babies cry, watch our innocent people die. The world falls apart in front of your face, with issues like the economy, borders, and race. Don’t try to misguide, the evidence we provide. Don’t try to hide, your disgusting genocide. Don’t try to hide, don’t hide, don’t hide, don’t hide, don’t hide, don’t hide, don’t hide, your nationwide genocide. Genocide, genocide News lies, babies cry, watch those innocent people die. Stand to the side, watch a genocide.

Watching Genocide
I beckon thee, to come visit me, in the garden of virility. Where men are carved from your darkest fantasy; and the women spun from your forbidden cupidity. Where carnal knowledge is given freely; and is taken just as quickly. Oh dearest, infatuation; given your love and lust till they blur and swirl. Good sir. Oh, Sweet madam. Lost in the down wards spiral of your avidity. I beckon thee, to play with me, in our hectic world of make believe. Where women are carved out of false trickery; and the men spun from wicked forgery. Where  nothing seems to be, what it is. The garden of falsity.

Garden of Falsity.
Somebody call Ben Affleck We got phantoms in this ***** This endless haunted mansion Their presence pervades No company In this lonely labyrinth Only phantoms The only figures resembling humanity Are the corpses of those before Who couldn't navigate this torturous structure And of course, the masquerading phantoms My soul they aim to puncture I tried closing my eyes But I just kept running into walls I tried sleeping through it But I just sank deeper into the basement When I attempted to join the phantoms You were there You waited until I was hanging there On the rope And eviscerated everything Lycanthrope The rope in shreds Your heart then fled Leaving me alone again Lying in my exhausted blood The phantoms sensed my desperation And took advantage of my disorientation So I ran to the darkest recesses of the basement To retrieve my blindfold and sledgehammer But is my hammer powerful enough? Will visual impairment abstain the trickery of ghosts? I put Sisyphus to shame With the determination I utilize to demolish these walls But the phantoms are devious They ***** new facades Thicker, sturdier, with odder textures I destroy them all the same It just takes a bit more time And time means nothing To a man who's sole purpose is knocking down walls And cowering from apparitions Yet a man means nothing To a time ruled by phantoms

Phantoms
I abuse words verbally like my voice is Bobby and the dictionary Whitney/ Like a literary hyperbole properly arranged to explain this deranged brutality perfectly/ Force the English language to work for me like a particularly dark time in history/ Optimistically take the tongue twister trickery and aggressively attack a vocabulary vocally and personally/ Not physically but a barrage on your psyche, almost psychedelically/ Use words medically, like a surgeon I expertly plant thoughts whispered softly but assertively/ Moving letters like chess pawns to express thoughts masterfully and creatively/ Gruesomely grotesque but gorgeous thoughts written down beautifully/ You can't help but hear the perplexity of mythoticly placed words with comradery/ An oddity with the audacity to raise the bar and up the capacity/ Because what comes out of me has to be exactly what you see because it is me/                 Not just a part of me but all of me/ I'm not a fallen tree sitting in the forest silently, quietly all by my lonely/ It's just the opposite actually and factually/ I will attack with a dialect so violent you violently retract causing you to react cowardly automatically/ I don't even have to lift a pinky, leave it stinky/ Let my words linger there in the air like **** smoke, thick and sticky/   Periodically come back to peek and see if you've figured out the mystery and found the key/ One that'll decipher decisively what it is that I've let out of me and spread to all humanity/ I could never have planned it, see, it had to happen naturally, organically if you will/ And not to build it up falsely but I honestly, back then, didn't have the ***** to let it out of me and it cost me considerably/ So now this mastery I hold of word delivery bestowed to me gets jotted down feverishly/ With an intensity equal to none inside of this ******* century, can't censor me/ Got a consistency that forces me to constantly cross the border of insanity repeatedly/ Time only to watch my talents as they literally wither away for all of eternity/ Such a tragedy to see such agony but please, no apology brought on by sympathy/ Just let me be as I drift farther out to sea to a place you'll never see/ To let these words mold me into someone you could never be/ ©2018

Amid mushrooms the leprechaun creeps At the end of rainbows he sleeps He would hit you with a rock If you try to steal his crock A master of devilish trickery He will play games with ye Doth thou keep away from me gold He will say so brash and bold Catch him and hear him rant Three wishes he will grant But those wishes are like the mist With each one comes a twist Laughs at you, he is all dressed in green Never generous, just twice as mean For his hidden gold he will dig Trick you and dance an Irish jig
