Disrobing, her skin glowing as it glistens in the night naked to the eye the most beautiful thing in sight a deep breathe as she exhales her beauty is unveiled anticipation swells waiting for his embrace her lips saturated with her taste his senses sense her scent enticing his nature tense magnetized to her flesh delicate is her touch to his aching ***** no words left to past just passionate lips rush for passion two bodies attracted to each others attraction love making magic happen

Magnetic
As rivers seek the sea, Much more deep than they, So my soul seeks thee Far away: As running rivers moan On their course alone So I moan Left alone. As the delicate rose To the sun's sweet strength Doth herself unclose, Breadth and length: So spreads my heart to thee Unveiled utterly, I to thee Utterly. As morning dew exhales Sunwards pure and free, So my spirit fails After thee: As dew leaves not a trace On the green earth's face; I, no trace On thy face. Its goal the river knows, Dewdrops find a way, Sunlight cheers the rose In her day: Shall I, lone sorrow past, Find thee at the last? Sorrow past, Thee at last?

Confluents
This sunlight shames November where he grieves In dead red leaves, and will not let him shun The day, though bough with bough be over-run. But with a blessing every glade receives High salutation; while from hillock-eaves The deer gaze calling, dappled white and dun, As if, being foresters of old, the sun Had marked them with the shade of forest-leaves. Here dawn to-day unveiled her magic glass; Here noon now gives the thirst and takes the dew; Till eve bring rest when other good things pass. And here the lost hours the lost hours renew While I still lead my shadow o’er the grass, Nor know, for longing, that which I should do.

Autumn Idleness
Keep it close, do not disclose, That thought you had, don't let it be told. Spiralling downwards, gaining momentum, Familiar now, fermenting the unscented. Just one step towards the darkest past, Listen to what you once were told, "Take two steps forward, one step back". Letting fears unwind, twisting the truth, A blanket of confidence unveiled, Now that your no longer you.

Acting in Life's Production
And she did it again! The medal glowed around her neck, Her face was lit up like A hundred candles burning together. In the corner of the same room. He smiled, His sacrifice had been fruitful. The girl had lived to become a doctor. Her mind was filled with gratitude, For the unknown who had saved her life, He leaves the room, Hoping that the truth will never be unveiled.

UNKNOWN SACRIFICES
The traditional Christmas Windows of Wonder Were set to be unveiled at five This meant to the children and parents That Santa was set to arrive Each year on the eve of the annual parade All the stores in downtown did display their annual Windows of Wonder And the town was abuzz all the day Children staring, windows frosting Their mouths open wide like their eyes Christmas was captured in an 8 by 10 box With gifts piled up to the skies Christmas presents of every sort Trees and tinsel, lights and ***** Children staring, frozen stiff Christmas wishes behind plate glass walls Parents and children watched the parade Waiting for Santa to come In between all the floats, there were still the displays As the children who all stood there numb Toys and mechanics, robots and dolls Trains and race cars on tracks The children all stared and they dreamed of just how Santa would get all these gifts in his sack In the midst of the crowd was a blonde, little girl A good breeze could just blow her away She'd been hovering there, looking at one small doll And she'd been there for most of the day The parade, it passed by, but she never did look she knew Santa was not here for her There was only one thing that had captured her heart And that was the doll, that's for sure The other kids looked, made their lists in their heads Ready to tell Santa their list but, this little girl stood alone from the crowd She was cold and her cheeks were ice kissed The parade ended late, and Santa went in took his chair and he met with the throng But, this girl stood aside, never moving on up And the Santa, knew something was wrong He called her by name, which gave her quite a start She was scared, but she moved at his call She sat on his lap, and he reached down behind And he gave the small girl the small doll Her face lit the room, more than any display She said "Santa, just how did you know?" He said, "Sarah, my dear, it's as plain as can be" "It's as easy as making it snow" He put her back down, clutching her doll to her chest And she walked to the front of the store but, before she went out, she turned back to say thanks And where he was, there was Santa no more Is it magic to think that this Santa was real? Or did this man know just what he should do? He made Sarah's Christmas, by giving that doll And I'm sure he made many more too The Children of Christmas stare wide eyed all day Dreaming hard of when Santa will call But,, off in the corner of the chlly, young crowd Stands a girl, with her new Christmas doll

Angelic minds, they say, by simple intelligence Behold the Forms of nature. They discern Unerringly the Archtypes, all the verities Which mortals lack or indirectly learn. Transparent in primordial truth, unvarying, Pure Earthness and right Stonehood from their clear, High eminence are seen; unveiled, the seminal Huge Principles appear. The Tree-ness of the tree they know-the meaning of Arboreal life, how from earth's salty lap The solar beam uplifts it; all the holiness Enacted by leaves' fall and rising sap; But never an angel knows the knife-edged severance Of sun from shadow where the trees begin, The blessed cool at every pore caressing us -An angel has no skin. They see the Form of Air; but mortals breathing it Drink the whole summer down into the breast. The lavish pinks, the field new-mown, the ravishing Sea-smells, the wood-fire smoke that whispers Rest. The tremor on the rippled pool of memory That from each smell in widening circles goes, The pleasure and the pang --can angels measure it? An angel has no nose. The nourishing of life, and how it flourishes On death, and why, they utterly know; but not The hill-born, earthy spring, the dark cold bilberries. The ripe peach from the southern wall still hot Full-bellied tankards foamy-topped, the delicate Half-lyric lamb, a new loaf's billowy curves, Nor porridge, nor the tingling taste of oranges. —An angel has no nerves. Far richer they! I know the senses' witchery Guards us like air, from heavens too big to see; Imminent death to man that barb'd sublimity And dazzling edge of beauty unsheathed would be. Yet here, within this tiny, charmed interior, This parlour of the brain, their Maker shares With living men some secrets in a privacy Forever ours, not theirs.

Morning Rainbow Myriad prismatic crystals,      refract the morning sun-streams - painting layers of spectral arches      across the misted horizon. Eyes turned to the western skies,      we suspend our meteorological selves   acquiescing to miracles unveiled before us -      un-beckoned and scarcely earned, proffering thanks for the radiant epistle      of healing, hope and promise, artfully encoded in transfigured light. Synthetic Refractions A luminary ballet takes center stage     when synthetic refractors come to play: crystal pendants bathe our foyers       with dazzling swaths of color. Hazy coronas encircle streetlamps       discovered by headlights through the fog. A science class prism slices light rays      into pre-ordered spectral strata. If the sky denies us a rainbow,      we can always fashion one of our own and we do! Spectral Sound Before there was music,      bird songs brushed our souls and the murmur of woodland streams      held us captive by their banks. Soon we learned to sing and tint the air     With prisms of wood and wire and metal and to color soundscapes in our spirits      With songs of wonder, joy and longing. Before there was music,      bird songs brushed our souls. Robert Charles Howard, 2019

"After mysteries am I, mysterious men too" together when we slipped away from others she told me with a grin, evidently hysterical, it gripped me, for some unknown reason. "More in to mysteries than anything else" I gently notified to her  my intentions "I've never been able to **** a male ****** ever" She indicated the area of her present  curiosity but isn't it strange,that she sounded wistful? If I heard her right,she mentioned repeatedly about,"The Third Brest,"as if she has a mystery for me in store.When buried deep around my ******* her teeth transmitted a hunger, and I felt it: what exactly a mother feels suckling her baby her heart beat went out of control,I could see the pangs of child that has never been fed from her mother's breast, or fondled by her And the mysterious part of the game she saved for me was finally unveiled,                                               my expectant eyes saw a chest devoid of any kind of swell, except the memories of the two full ones taken away mercilessly by decease.I saw blood in her tears.

The mysteries we shared
behind those impenetrable barrier i saw a beautiful man wearing black his face is veiled by white cloth he seems so lost the stained blood in his veiled cheek like he cry a thousand droplets of blood the dulled in his eyes and the gloomy of the place i aim to touched and smashed those invisible walls with the mighty of my own hand but not even my entire power can resist! only you can shatter those walls if you're at inside i attempted to shout at him 'help yourself darling!' but not even my powerful voice could penetrated those barriers i cried at his painful situation to my horror he stares at me! with his icy cold stare he smiles! those smile... i remember those smiles i used to have he slowly walks into my direction and touched those invisible barriers but he didn't attempted to fractured those walls he talks but i can't comprehend what he whispered i follow the move on his lips saying 'it's okay. i'm okay here' he smile again those painful smile slowly, he unveiled his face but what frightened me are his face! his looks! that is me! what's going on?! i felt dizzy maybe my mind is tricking on me! slowly, my vision became blurry drifting away in this melancholic place i black out ©IGMS

How shall I discover, uncover, and (re) cover you??
Dark cloud gown covered moon Searching for your surface Led by the scattered streaks of light I see when the wind lets your skirt drift The majesty Beauty with a purpose The silent stoic sun king Even bows his head in your service Cracked, barren and imperfect Yet you bear your face Reflected on every surface The ever-watchful unveiled bride Our clear open eyes in the darkness of an eternal sky

*Ladies & Gentlemen, behold! Listen to the story I have to share. A fantasy from future.* Someday in Future Setting: The underground metro train Characters: She & me Me: Now our stop is at the end, darling. She: I'd just relax until we reach then, dear. Me: How're you going to do that, standing? She: I've my personal pillar to hold on to for relaxing, you know - I don't fear... Me: ...and that is me? She: Yes & no! I look clueless and she lets out a laughter barely audible to others in the metro train. She: You yourself are not the pillar but you've the pillar! I blush big time and turn tomato-red, her delicately-soft hands come pull my cheeks and by now I am able to duly respond as the man. Me: Oh I see! So madam is in a good mood to flirt. Good-good, even I was starting to get bored hearing only to the harsh sound of the metro train on the track, let us recollect the previous night. She: Sure, you bear the onus of starting the account and I'll recount the ending as we reach home. Me: Alright then, here we go. Low voices Me: Darling I started it all, I came from the showers, I carried a seductive grin, As I moved forwards, You started to fall, Not caring where you fell towards. And you fell in my arms, I held you softly as my baby, As you're precious to me like one. I then lifted you in my arms, You had a soft glowing smile on your lips. Then I laid you on the bed, You appeared like Aphrodite. The white gown was off in a jiffy, You looked at my towel's knot, And you undid it the next. She: As the pillar was unveiled, I hoisted myself on it, And we came together. Me: Now the station seems closer, let us conclude our recounting Friday night. (Looking at my watch) She: Yes, we have a night every other night. (Winks) Me: I love you, honey! (I smile) She: Not more than me! (Her smile is more brilliant) By now the train approaches our stop and we are smiling as we dismount the train. On our minds for a sleepless Saturday night we are hatching a beautiful plan.

Slotting into geological time "As a man thinks, so is he", ferillergood ye may as well add as subtract. Am i right or am I wrong? Dexter, yeh, that'n or Sinister. Being left or right, That's jest sided-ness, a sort, a me-trick-able stackable thing, with an in side and an out side and a top outside and a bottom outside and a front inside and a front backside and a back frontside with its own inside. Like you. Value pends 'pon sorts of things into similarities of singularities, if I got that message un occluded or unveiled of sacred meanings. There seemed to be no code "if a man (voice) says a thing that is true, but I did not say it: does that make it untrue?" I answered, "Lord, you are truth." Wow. Look what I said. truth you are lord. Punctuated equilibrium humm white noise of wonder can it be? 'Think so.

**Ode to the martyr who showed us the way the path he paved for us took him to his grave his will not forgotten we will not betray beauties nor beasts could keep him enslaved** ------------------------------------ The martyr needs his death as much as all the rest He was a great warrior who fought beside his one true king Then the Gods did decide that for the greater good they would take the life of both so that the people firmly understood The action of tragedy catharsis it burns up our fear brings us hope and honor an unveiled perfect wisdom born of hubris To the people who burn for revolution who seek the warriors of good know that his sacrifice is a waking call to push back against the evil that took his gallant soul he now lays as carbon in the cool soil the tension boils

Ode to the Martyr
September speaks in dull sand flecks and billowing my stiffened skirt to kneecaps rested on for prayer, grinded on for *** It pokes and I’ll awake – I am just like a ***** in the autumn morn first torn, the first born of a hundred encounters of which I would not believe it could be the opus of. Ladies lose physical barriers, but they do not evade a September when orchards are trimmed and all that’s beneath is unveiled: see it with my glass eye. No dust inside. See it with your honey bulbs – the foothills, the knees married to the floor where stars first aligned, so I ****** you off.

You never did manage to see The final nail on the casket nor The 9 years it has taken me To unweave it from my crown of thorns You say you shout you scream You could not have foretold The bullet I held clenched between my teeth Heavy to the touch, heavy and unbearably cold Not as I my mouth became a steal barrel, Not as it came racing out Not as it came to meet your creased forehead's third fold I shake with loss I shiver with relief My silver armor melts away and evaporates into flesh The life you had left ahead of you was anyway brief Unlike the fruits you stole from my long life that once lay ahead of me An ugly, loud, rampant, hobbling thief I leave my pills to you For all the times I failed Trying bleed your blood out from my wrists Bullet blown, skeletons thrown, casket nailed I walk back up the stairs light as a feather A crested crow, my wings unfurled, a crested crow unveiled

Birdie in the Basement
A shuddered sigh, then some hope inhaled. A wince of distrust, yet a heart unveiled. A cautious smile leaves a little too late. And a hopeful look rises to the bait. A tensed up brow begins to relax, For peace and joy have been too long taxed. Sorrow still lurks in the back of the mind, But reluctantly it is left behind. A cautious faith is restored anew And I open myself back up to you.

Topic, My next project will be Dissecting ego: From where it begins      Objectives: To try to explore, where the seeds are To unveil who showed it To confirm if it is heritable? To witness how fast it grows Is that us who tame ego, Or does ego tames us? Does ego dies before the possessor?      Method used,  Tracking the loud voice Tracking the grandeur side Dissecting skin deep Relating all connections Exploring circumstances Done exclusive on humans Saints excluded    Discussion:  Ego never discuss It stays ahead    Conclusion: We are the one We tame ego Absolutely acquired Understanding is the antidote      Disclosure: None

Ego Unveiled
When everything was fine And the notion of sin had vanished And the earth was ready In universal peace To consume and rejoice Without creeds and utopias, I, for unknown reasons, Surrounded by the books Of prophets and theologians, Of philosophers, poets, Searched for an answer, Scowling, grimacing, Waking up at night, muttering at dawn. What oppressed me so much Was a bit shameful. Talking of it aloud Would show neither tact nor prudence. It might even seem an outrage Against the health of mankind. Alas, my memory Does not want to leave me And in it, live beings Each with its own pain, Each with its own dying, Its own trepidation. Why then innocence On paradisal beaches, An impeccable sky Over the church of hygiene? Is it because that Was long ago? To a saintly man --So goes an Arab tale-- God said somewhat maliciously: "Had I revealed to people How great a sinner you are, They could not praise you." "And I," answered the pious one, "Had I unveiled to them How merciful you are, They would not care for you." To whom should I turn With that affair so dark Of pain and also guilt In the structure of the world, If either here below Or over there on high No power can abolish The cause and the effect? Don't think, don't remember The death on the cross, Though everyday He dies, The only one, all-loving, Who without any need Consented and allowed To exist all that is, Including nails of torture. Totally enigmatic. Impossibly intricate. Better to stop speech here. This language is not for people. Blessed be jubilation. Vintages and harvests. Even if not everyone Is granted serenity.
