"uncorrupted" poems
**I urge that we make ourselves proud… of us I urge that we go into and come out of these polls sober minded, responsible, uncorrupted, without ‘fight’ or ‘fuss’ Uncorrupted I urge that a joyous feeling of an evolving nation moving forward be the only thing we can, in hindsight, say erupted… this upcoming Monday, the following Tuesday I would like to state that a people gunning for peace in these coming days is the only topic I would like to be following in the news today We should see what’s coming as the change of guard it is… and not as a dreaded doomsday You may be black… I may be white, or vice versa… and that’s alright We shouldn't even be asking ourselves “Who’s grey?” I will vote with one heart for one country… my country A country in which I’m confident can keep the peace, you see, we’re kind of good at this I know this because we've had quite a bit of practice I know this because deep down we all want to make peaceful transitions be the Kenyan way I know, I hope… and whenever necessary, I pray Happy voting.**

Happy voting... {Poetry For Peace-Kenya}
****** A symbol of denial, congeniality, and assurance of love; the fate of maternity, motherhood, that is witnessed and cherished from afar. From a sacred little haven; from a struggle of motherly defense. O ****** Temptations are to you never a bother, in the tempests of lush dreams, the draining of purity, and veritable sensations. Steadiness is your notion; it barely leaves your mind you may be deeply hurt but never hurt, you may be a stranger but your grace is your power. Truth that is unpardonable, veraciousness at my simplest words, clarity that is gleaming in your eye, a token of pleasure but indestructible affection; adorable as you are, serenity is beyond question; dreams are but inseparable from your docile life. O ****** the sweetness and gentleness of thy eyes are my irreplaceable silence, my appraised soul, and my most resolute and irrepressible invocation. O ****** one that is so rare a rose Many as in the May-day dance are tainted; marks of annoyance, omens of indulgence. With hunger for nothing but moans; unsober groans, and quickening breaths in paces of outward satisfaction; intoxicated desires but unloving movements; on the grounds for endless dancing; there is the thirst for grips, the grossest of stateliness! Voluptuous romance, perfidious touches, and false-hearted toys! In the wakeful dreams of which I long for you, a handful of thy chastest kisses! I pray for your hands, so delicate as mine, how they shall fit into each other! I long for your lips, your spotless, uncorrupted cheeks, My demand is for your hands; for sanity, and sincerest cordiality Despite of my guilt and former unconsciousness I shall amend my grief for you, for you only, for oureth perfect, unconquerable happiness, and the union of our souls in a day of holy matrimony.

In the shade of the freeway The pretenders stalks his prey Innocence quite uncorrupted Until today. In the shade of the willow tree You lay here next to me Draped in Spanish moss Cicada symphony. In the shade of the old motel Feels like she's got to sell Cigarette lights up the night Sees a face she knows too well.

the epitome of chivalry.
#You are beautiful forever-- the core of who you are.. still  wholly uncorrupted, is made in the very image of God-- It is intertwined with your flesh so that your flesh may become healed. But your flesh is immersed in the stupidity, placed there by others,  not you. But you are the one that still  chooses to believe its ******** message-- The one that says   it will not work or that   it's all too much or that   no one cares, anyways or that  you are not worthy              of the magic that is in you. The relational part of your own  healing that already exists  within you will come to you from those who love you enough to want to tell you the truth-- That the message your traumatized flesh, carries is nowhere near the truth,  but instead is immersed inside of the lie. I tell you the truth, in response to your acknowledgement of my faith in you and you respond by treating me as if you have no value for me whatsoever. What tells you inside of yourself to respond that way? So, I make a play for you again, not to make you mine..   but to remind you of who you truly are. All of the healing you will ever need is already inside of you..  through the Image-bearing nature  of the very core of who you are.  Its deep ache  to permeate your broken flesh  is held at bay by Love's beautiful choice to  yield to your own freedom of autonomy Because love, without freedom is not love at all-- but only control.. with a smile. I weather your storms because not even your own  lack of believing in yourself  will ever stop  me from believing in you. --And yes.. you are at times difficult-- sometimes to such a degree,  that the dream you actually are to me..  at those times can feel to me as if instead, like a bad nightmare.. But that is only the stupidity, of your flesh and your own temporary stupidity  of actually believing  that,  in itself..   as if  to be life..  and as if  to be you. You are my beautiful,  forever that will never, ever  change. One day  you will see, beautiful girl. I know that one day,  you will see #

Your hands have seen the inside of a carborator. You took apart a hard drive and called it procreation. They've been blackened by grease and bloodied in your desperate attempts to clear the clouds out of your head. Seattle is our ocean, water all around to drown away bad memories and forget the sunshine of our conception. Rain can cover up scars, hurt, and spilled ideas, take them far away to different oceans. But never our own foreign lake, somewhere close to Mount St. Helens, or so we thought. Could our hands ever touch such a pure, uncorrupted pool as holy as the depths of your eyes? Would it wipe clean the slate, dirtied over years of poor decisions? Your cloudy eyes tell me different.

Seattle
in the weeds where the dark bees believe in dark dreams; savoring the frostbitten nostalgia of wet mittens and smokestacks hacking hearth-smog and dingy bitters against clouds from a nameless grudge... spawn from downcast holly. where red berries gasp for yellow in the crotch of a wooden Fluegelhorn sprouting from the branch of a hedge without Lips. But a mouth full of snow. II in the weeds where the dark bees believe in atoms of uncorrupted joy and pollen. where they collude with silent majorities and swindle sunlight for a spawnsong anchored to the beak of a kestrel... shrieking the maniacal disquiet of a perfect moment. rattling the hinges - adored. without a key.

This is the shorter edited version of our story. It tells you the facts, but it doesn't tell you the why. It leaves a lot of blanks that you can fill in, so it could be about your own highschool experience. If you want to know our story, read the unedited version. There were five of us. Freshman who grew up to be seniors There was the oldest, the skinny one He was tall and awkward He was so quiet and shy He only texted He was uncorrupted He was a lover Then there was the Latino Amazing athletic talent A great friend Funny as hell Romantic and gentle Loyal and patient Next came the little one Obedient and but passionate Younger than everyone Guileless and enchanting In love with the latino The most bendable, changeable one Also there was the clown Everyone’s friend, no one’s best friend Wannabe family man Strangely perceptive Always smiling Ladies’ man And then there was me. Full of surprises Loud, rebellious, crazy Fearless, childish Independent and devoted Steady and never-changing, slightly judgmental That was us. We were all connected, but also independent The boys fought Mostly over the little one Then we fell apart. We’re almost unrecognizable The tall one, the oldest Got his first girlfriend He befriended so many girls But secretly was dreaming of the little one He’s leading his brother And he doesn’t even know it The latino is mostly the same He doesn’t fight as much But he never got over the little one Now he just gets admirers He’ll grow out of high school He already knows how to do life The little one got so lost along the way But I decided to stick around cuz she’s my best friend She’s already taking college classes She’s working with children Now she’s planning her life But she doesn’t seem happy The clown found himself friendless He made a lot of dumb mistakes He still hangs around He parties and smokes To hell with being good At least he’s accepted his fate And I’m lost too I don’t party or drink or smoke or have *** But I’m losing my religion Bad things have happened to me I’m no better than my friends I’m sad I’m no longer special And so we’re lost Some are on the mend But we made it through high school We got so messed up along the way though I drive home listening to Queen The clown showed me that one song And I cry because we are the champions

I created a ray to save the world. We had come too far, had lost ourselves, it seemed to me and we were taking the Earth along with us into the abyss. Too much knowledge: too much thought. We needed to go back. And so I created the Great Devolver Ray and stood, trembling, by the trigger. This would return us to our basest animal selves. Would tune us perfectly into Nature, re-thread us into the fabric of Creation destroy the wall between Natural and Unnatural. Pure uncorrupted survival: nothing more. And so I stood, on the brink, unsure as all great revolutionaries must be, put my hand in place, and pushed. And the ray burst forth and we were transformed into the pure ******* creatures that Life demanded. And absolutely nothing changed at all.

The Scientist
Like a deeply buried and well hidden time capsule... My mind preserves our memories     Each kiss is protected with the same      Delicacy and gentleness as the moment given.      The softness and tenderness of every touch      Remains un-withered and in it's purest condition. My heart safeguards our Love      The innocence sealed in, it remains untouched      And untainted in this stronghold.      Shielded from days light,  it goes uncorrupted      By the realities of this cold world. My eyes give sanctuary to the secrets of our blended souls      Locking away passion and understanding      That was beyond the human realm.      Encrypting our story so that it is exclusively      For only us to know and tell. My body is here, just as you left me      Keeping watch over these treasures      Concealing them from all who might discern      I am here, longing for you      And awaiting your return ©Tina Thompson 2012

We never obliged ourselves with any sort of passion or alignment with natures splendor, we just flip-flop'd about like disenfranchized plastic pieces of footwear; Fleetingly and disparingly as we float adrift through a toxic sea of consumerism, entranced with the notion of celebrity, swirling and whirling around until we undoubtabley wash ashore onto the pristine beaches of someones elses uncorrupted, isolated and darkly pigmented subconscious. Ready and willing to establish order in the magnitude of exploitation and apathy. As we scream freedom from tryanny, TV to TV, a bunch of muted and silenced over commercialized under adulterated humans trickle fed lies through screens. Everyone knows but who is speaking up, As Miley Circus flies across the manufactured dream a handful of youth stand up and puke as they throw there hands up like the ones before them and say "this isn't my scene!"

New World Odor
The rain falls, a soft pitter-patter in the background Over it plays our music, calm and sweet A song of love lost, never to be found again Sad music, the best we have Outside the windows, we watch the world pass us by The rain distorting images, refracting light Making the world a foregin, beautiful place once more Like when we were children Uncorrupted by the cynicism we develeop as protection From a cruel cruel world You drive, while I sit passenger We don't talk Words would only spoil the moment With the rain, and the music Your hand and mine, intertwined We achieve a state of peace, tranquility Perfection And then SWERVE No more

Swerve
Outstretched bays, con-caved crevasses, chevrons two by two. At force through the mountains, counting the moments as the seconds slip through the hour glass. The hours pass, alas. The quay whispered in fleeting moments, the gradient of the sand permeates against the soles of your feet. Soon that notion is washed away as the tide of the ocean collides with the tip of your toes. Take me home, or take me somewhere new at least. How can I rest in peace when your life's in pieces and you second guess every second thing I say? I'm broken now, outspoken and jaded from the days despair. You're desperate and you'll never be the same but we go on as if nothings happened and as if nothing matters then, nothing will change. Take me back to the daybreak, take me back to your uncorrupted mind and youth, speak your truth to me one last time so we can go home together and never go b a c k

Llandudno you don't know
A strange soft stirring begins in my heart I’m not sure what caused this fluttering to start Like innocence still uncorrupted captured in butterflies Except my stomach is no longer where the majority flies But just a little while ago a few still hovered there But to trap or imprison them I wouldn’t dare There hides a few more in the lungs in my chest Only flap wings when I can’t catch my breath When silence is the single sentence I have to not speak Your smile leaves me speechless Knees growing weak No clock No noise All surroundings fade away Colors suddenly emerge where before was only grey Waiting for your melodic voice to disrupt that magic spell Heaven momentarily suspended til one word snaps me back into hell The illusion of perfection not once falters or affrights As you come closer the swarm inside my body takes off in simultaneous flight It’s mindblowing the way my senses react when you are near How you still manage to give me butterflies even after all these years

Flutter And Stutter
She's a crazy blonde and she's funny She can do no right and she can do no wrong An astronaut and a 2000 year old genie In a bottle and somehow they've to get along Barbara Eden and Larry Hagman are the stars Of the show hilarious in awkward moments "Is my master upset with me?" She always asks Yet coy when he can get whatever he wants Winks and nobs transformed in the blink of an eye Appear or disappear "your wish is my command" Or "master I'm at your service." She'd say but sly Pony tailed girlish genie often can't comprehend Master's orders disobeyed as he acts a fool Uncorrupted innocently gazed hands in my chin On deserted island genie ******** clad beautiful I was too young to know to wish for to imagine

I Dream Of Jeannie
The problem With Poli- Tricks- They mention every "God" But the only God- And they wonder Why their lost in Misery- Ashamed In darkness Falls- evolution In schools Meaning no (Morals) Their standards Are that man's a Monkey, using Euthenics( reviving ****** in their Man-made Mural's. Eat your cereal Live life as if we have the B L I N D E R S    ON- Though my eye's are Uncorrupted ( not seeing through misty nighttime glasses) Breaking to the other Side Of the Fog-     Science correlates with dios And dios with science- Yet popular belief Is a tool Of diablo's Machine. Reaching into the dome Of the great City- Where America Is astray With the globe In the horned one's Mean's. Has the man who said There is no God Just walked out into nature- To see the spectacular Creation On a universal Scale? Yet their bucket's of Disbelief have been Shown beneathe the Veil Where the impious Are stale And their aspiration Is None!

They mention all others-but not the only one
A hidden key To unlock this soul A Victorian queen To confine mine home An ancient lass Druid class Unpolished Uncorrupted I seeketh one to give me all As I her Two words (King and queen) To be the apple of her eye Bringeth me back to life Push the red soup back in mine arteries Light the alpha and omega torch!!!! Scorched!!! By ones petting upon mine countenance A cigarette of Aphroditus A holy plus and sacred minus A positive and negative so attractional!!! Her long darkened locks To zephyr across mine chiffonier As she drenches me in cartoon weird A delighting smear of two bodies in the swelter!!!!! Unplugged Raw Unkiltered Filthy animals in rawest mold!!! Antediluvian souls!!!! Her slaver Uncustomarily Her quiver I tasteth as dairy Unadulterated by man, plush by god!!! Yet its a lost chimera Laughing back at me There's none that standeth at mine gate All a whimpering dream A fantasy of hopeless romantic!! Why chase the treasure? I see no chance Still a dunce Of high school dance As I'll sit in the bleachers glancing the crowd!!!!

watcher blanchisseur , désespérée chimère romantique !! (Bleacher watcher,hopeless romantic chimera) in french!!!
She lies on white sheets against a white wall, strawberry lips stealing the minds of all who see her. That color, delicately smeared across her skin, brings you back to a moment as a child, when you first glanced down the rows of red orbs dangling in sun touched fields of green. You sat, eagerly, beneath the arms of an old opalescent, waiting as the sun stretched higher in the sky. Others roam around, touching and tasting as they steal a sample of sweetness, discarding each after its filled its use, but not you. You will wait for the one you want to give in to temptation, and drop into your unwavering arms. It falls, and you watch as your coveted ruby plummets towards you. All you can do is think about is how beautiful it looks, momentarily suspended in the sky, shining like a lunar eclipse on a cloudless night. You reach for it, praying you can soften the bruising blow it would otherwise receive from the harsh ground. And you do. Its skin smooth to the touch. Its surface, shiny. With squinting eyes you can see your own smile in its reflection. Tongue tingling, mouth watering, you yearn for a taste. You’ve seen excitement before, but for some reason, this moment makes your heart beat faster than the flap of a hummingbird’s wings. Your lips meet its skin, slowly, shaking, nervous of what may come. You bite. Firm, yet supple. Sweet nectars drip down your chin and fall to the ground, showering the ants below with tiny drops of heaven. Its core sits uncorrupted, not spoiled or stained but soft and succulent. You see her lips, touch them, taste them, and once again you are a child in an apple field, waiting for the right one to fall into your arms.

In the gallery of a town, art was duly contained and cared for carefully without contamination. There was a painting there, painted with oil paints that rained and formed a picture of a bird on a canvas of vivid blues, browns, and greens that fixed eyes on it like webs to hair. The artist spoke: “We are all swallows: proud, free, agile. We are all oceans: formidable, hostile. We are all stormy weather: thunderous. We are all columns: supportive, calloused. Entwined we will walk, down to and up to the sands, into elixirs made with salt; swelling our joyous hands.” Men, women and children all strolled by, and let not one of them see the lows and highs of the artist's soul. A boy stood there with no-one: his uncorrupted eyes walking up and down the mined canvas. He felt no sand under his feet; he felt no wooden skin and complexion in his hands. He spoke: “We are not swallows: ashamed, caged, stiff. We are not oceans: defenceless, mild. We are not stormy weather: soundless We are not columns: defective, defiled. Like slaves, we sing on top of the wings of new-born Spring. The ground we sowed and toiled, reaped dangers of fantasy untold. Soul-reaping bird-singers singing the siren song to us. But we must not fuss. I bleed the colours of a deadly rose garden. Red, yellow, blue, green: colourless eyes remain unseen.”

A Dialogue: The Artist and the Boy
Slow burning and thick is the smoke in my lungs. A death wish in the end, a refreshment of poison that enters my bloodstream. Youth of less than 30, 20, and even 18; all of us are just searching for happiness and enjoyment in life, since everything is just so ****** Ignorance is truly bliss. Yet my generation is acquiring negative knowledge so quickly. All of us grew up too fast to enjoy our youths in an uncorrupted way. Our innocence has been robbed by those older than us. Our happy places aren't the movies, dances, or skate rinks; they're bottles of liquid poison and capsules full of assorted chemicals which induce false emotions for a few hours. To be ignorant and clueless is to be truly happy.

Wasted Youth
We were legends Mythic anti-heroes and sunbathing statues To be handed down through the fervent fires of forever Untouchable by the languishing winds of time Smiling at our own mortality with ****** knuckles and shit-eating grins We were at once privy to all things and blank like hungry canvases, ready to absorb radiant smears. They often laughed and asked how we made it this far allowing our uncorrupted appetites to persevere. We winked back as we took another sip and listened to the music they couldn’t hear. Such beautifully melancholic catharsis. We openly dined on our borrowed time We offered back no apology for our burning hearts. We rode down the bridge on the backs of exploding horses looking to see what was over the next horizon With inexhaustible decadence and the confidence of lightening we strolled down the sidewalks without avoiding the cracks, In fact we hoped with thinly veiled secrecy that one would swallow us whole and reveal to us why the clouds are never satisfied enough to stay in one place We danced our way through the unremarkable Side-stepping the gasless motors and cynical flowers refusing to grow on the side of the road With full glasses and brilliant bursts of light that couldn’t be held behind the cage of a bulb, we descended into the careless waves and let them stain our souls like fire onto coals It was always the beginning of the day. The night was always young. Our souls were always wide awake. The clocks simply couldn’t keep up. And at the final beginning’s end, we refused to shake hands Taking whatever breath we had left to fill our lungs with one last smoldering theft We greeted death as an old friend whose invitation had been lost in the mail And left this world the same way we came into it; on fire. On fire. We were you. We were them.  We were all the parts of this adventure that slipped through their hearts. At least we left them our ashes so they find their own new starts.

And at the final beginning’s end, we refused to shake hands Taking whatever breath we had left to fill our lungs with one last smoldering theft We greeted death as an old friend whose invitation had been lost in the mail And left this world the same way we came into it; on fire. On fire. We were you. We were them.  We were all the parts of this adventure that slipped through their hearts. At least we left them our ashes so they find their own new starts.

I just saw a reflection Of who you could have been Had you not fallen from glory. Had you maintained your beauty Had you maintained your health Had you remained above the drudgery I am sorry For who you have become Even though I tried my best To make **** sure I wasn’t responsible So I bid you well Whoever you had the potential to become And should you ever stop your frantic run Know I will not be there anymore I will be in the mirror With your reflection Altogether more beautiful In that uncorrupted bliss

Reflection
stone faced, sand blasted, cemented and half-assed, sleeping soundly like Pompeii dreamless, uninspired, uncorrupted, unavailable for comment. You see, there are bones inside of me. Bones embracing each other, in tired poses laying in the dirt, uncovered by the studious, curious, fastidious, and woefully unlucky. Good luck cataloging your finds. I wouldn't buy it. meanwhile, i am petrified in perfect fashion filling my space filing my cells and ever. so. damn. slowly. i am whole again, rock hard abs and chiseled jaw Adonis in slate stone with chipping lungs stand **** for the world in demonstration of man "This is what I was," i will say, "Proud never to change." pigeon **** on my shoulder and no one knows what color my eyes were

Ashes to Ashes to Ashes
Hear the children’s laughter, it is all the same. High pitched and infectious, a dear for the ears. Black, white, brown or yellow, they have the same smile. Well nourished or starving, they have one desire. Some good fortune for kids, having a true home, with someone to hold them. Someone to kiss them. But an ill fate for those, having such a house, and not a home to go. No one to embrace. Yet… still blessed beings, seeing no evil, hearing only good things. Uncorrupted minds. Let children, be children. Make them see beauty. Show them the precise way, let love be their light!

#D Vanlandingham *Boundless.. In its ability to extend beyond all forms of containment; the big circle contains within it, the little one And if it is true relationship through genuine volition of the beloved that is to be desired most of all, then spirit, wrapped in flesh is the autonomy most needed      in order for the dream to become true. Spirit is being. Spirit cloaked in flesh is being-- feeling its relationship with its own self. Spirit, mastering its own flesh by reigning in  its emotions  along with the synaptic-firing of every one of its nerve endings into full submission of the spirit's own core nature, is the root-basis of all true volition. Spirit, in its raw form is perfect-- wholly unable to undergo corruption, or decay..      but the flesh..      the flesh,      Always needing to substantiate itself through its never-ending layers      of self-promotion  apart from the realities of its own spirit's  core. Yet,  pure Love-- wholly unable to see itself as that which is to be rejected, enters in to the very act of the rejection, itself; ..that autonomy may  continue to  contain the uncorrupted core--      and the smaller circle becomes established:      smaller.. yes.. but in truth,      its parameters self stretch all the way out      to those of the bigger one And so, with the necessary advent of autonomy into the relational equation,    comes also The necessary advent of God's wholly-volitional self-depletion of God.. entering,  in to it all so that, in time, God(Love) alone  might take the full brunt of rejection's unjust hit--      in its autonomous movement  away      from its own incorruptible core..      away,  from its own true self. So, follow the smaller circle, if you will, my beautiful-- either way, you are still following God.* #

*Its not just the absence of war It is Living, Learning and Changing Peace Will be when tanks become homes And old grenades are cups that are used to sip water Peace is when shades of green are only worn by nature It will be when the fences no longer divide us Its the calmness in one's heart The brightest blue skies Accompanied with the softest innocent clouds Peace is when nature is uncorrupted And reality is not distorted Its natural beauty Not chemical deformity Nor the extinction of humanity Peace is hope Its life Its love Its faith Peace is the content feeling Of knowing you're safe*
