An early evening gust broke the back of the day's blaze Still 90 degrees at eight in orange haze Sweat runs down my neck Through the gorge between my ******* The wind lifts my linen shirt runs its hands along my sides reviving memory of Forest Park of a blanket in the grass Where the pines trace so many faces Crackling popping kids stolen matches, running screaming victorious! Blowing tin cans up with fire crackers Bicycles, sparklers, fireworks at dusk That whole afternoon I spent hammering caps Noise really makes us kids really especially annoying Mom wants us out! Gone! All of us! No needs. No excuses! No cookies! No slices of bologna! “No more Kool Aid! Out now! Out!” That evening I tried to dismiss the itchy sweat of stupid-sister-Suzy-matching-sun-suits at Gino's family picnic When some kid (I don't know?) between the rigatoni and the sweet corn Some kid tosses a sparkler into box of fireworks I don't know? whether to cry or laugh I was pretty scared Rockets going off across the lawn and onto porch Craze of colors through the trees Some at eye-level horror! But the sight of Aunt Nedda diving under picnic table Stockings, garter belt upended Capsized beyond her caring of uplifted dress Some images just stay with you, ya know? July 4th always lands for me on a firework's ***

There is one thing that ought to be taught in all the colleges, Which is that people ought to be taught not to go around always making apologies. I don't mean the kind of apologies people make when they run over you or borrow five dollars or step on your feet, Because I think that is sort of sweet; No, I object to one kind of apology alone, Which is when people spend their time and yours apologizing for everything they own. You go to their house for a meal, And they apologize because the anchovies aren't caviar or the partridge is veal; They apologize privately for the crudeness of the other guests, And they apologize publicly for their wife's housekeeping or their husband's jests; If they give you a book by Dickens they apologize because it isn't by Scott, And if they take you to the theater, they apologize for the acting and the dialogue and the plot; They contain more milk of human kindness than the most capacious diary can, But if you are from out of town they apologize for everything local and if you are a foreigner they apologize for everything American. I dread these apologizers even as I am depicting them, I shudder as I think of the hours that must be spend in contradicting them, Because you are very rude if you let them emerge from an argument victorious, And when they say something of theirs is awful, it is your duty to convince them politely that it is magnificent and glorious, And what particularly bores me with them, Is that half the time you have to politely contradict them when you rudely agree with them, So I think there is one rule every host and hostess ought to keep with the comb and nail file and bicarbonate and aromatic spirits on a handy shelf, Which is don't spoil the denouement by telling the guests everything is terrible, but let them have the thrill of finding it out for themselves.

Ye got to Fancy this Hearty Stout, Aye, Soot-soaked with tub-flavoured Laurels of Gold Now bloke-haste Juggers tick your nerves on-high And make ye shout the Trumpet-Football-Fold Yet so, our Celtic Spirit comes to call For you to Jig their Post-Victorious Dance Or, if upset, prefer to keep knees on hold And hope such Font will get you that Romance Still, never deny those After-Glugs won't count In palling the Bet for Arsenal's Wear Sudden Death Match will cause the Team to Mount And show those Charbarrels a Reason to Tear. Raise a Swig, to where there Brave Captains be I take me Share, and drink the Sailor in me.

SONNET TRIBUTE: GUINNESS IRELAND
I am the king victorious, The jurors can plainly see. As this crown sits on my head, With shining jewels of glee. I don't doubt this directive course, As you can plainly see. For I am the king victorious, And you have become no voice to me.

King Victorious
Birds have their homes. This bird made this world, Its own home. When other birds struggled To make friends beyond their homes, This bird made followers and comrades, Transformed them The perseverent leaders of a challenging mission It put its foot on Argentina and Set its victorious fight in Cuba. Availed losses in Congo Voiced and breathed every millisecond Struggled recklessly for a mission, Freedom, peace & prosperity of all its fellow birds Beyond borders. The most superior of the superior birds With an infinite and complex strings of cunningness Put an end to this bird in Bolivia. At the end, the bird failed Fell a prey for other selfish birds. As a root that fell and Buried itself in the soil with an infinite power. To give hope and shelter, To all those who come under it, For the near future and coming generations The bird died! But its mission ignited the phoenix flames In its bird comrades. Got them to fight for Every drop of Injustice, Imperialism and hatred That came racing towards them As an inescapable bullet Their hearts raised in spirit When every drop of its thought Hit them more fierce than The world’s most powerful atomic bomb. The bird died. But its ideals for the mission Rekindled the fires in their heart. Being born an ordinary bird, Fighting for the most demanded & toughest mission, Its thought and principles Set new leaders to fight the unattainable mission Now, looking the most possible Within an attaining distance The bird lived its life, An ordinary and the most challenging one. But transformed a phoenix, When it left the world. And created more of Daring Phoenix warriors; Attain a world filled with peace and happiness.

The goddess Of golden-faced victory Her head brilliantly decorated with green laurels Victoria, bestowing victory for what is named after her Down to the red-plumed Romans with their gleaming swords Nike, champion of the Greek gods. Riding the chariot of victory into battle The laurels catches the light of a mirror It dances away, after its victorious champion She may be a bit crazy or at least hungry For the taste of that sweet victory Let her be Roman; let her be Greek; She is never weak What one might say, she does not know For her victory is clogging up her ears Goddess of victory, we all want a taste of her power.

Nike - Victoria
We had some visitors that came from outer space. Those aliens came here to enslave the Human race. I met the leader and he demanded that I bow down before him. He said that if I didn't, our galaxy would meet a fate that was grim. I told that alien **** that I only bow down before the almighty Jehovah. The alien leader got so mad that he said they would destroy our galaxy by causing a Supernova. But God wiped out the aliens with bolts of lightning. Jehovah God was victorious because he is a king. Jehovah stopped those aliens from causing chaos. He showed those alien fiends that he is the boss.

I fear none but see all, My dragon comes when I call. I control the elements upon my mind, As they swirl within time. I stand firm and tall, Waving my sword in the wind. My world is only a war, As I fight to win. No orders can tell me what to do, I am a General of Skyrim. My home is of bravery rest, as my skills everyday, are put to the test. You fight for what you believe, You die with dignity. Honor boils in your veins, As you try to fight free. Freedom rings when a Warrior stands forth, He or she shall be, A savior to the world. Within the World of Tamriel, I am an Imperial Soldier, And a Female. Anyone can be a warrior upon strife, Even within this war, You can be right. Join a side, Choose your path. You shall be victorious, And will deserve a Warriors Death. Challenge thy dragonkin now. They will await your arrival. Upon your dragon, Shall become thy trial. Tempest waves within the skies of Tamriel, As the Dragonborn comes, To the World of Skyrim.

Warrior of Tamriel, Warrior of Realitys Breath
I am no longer a Roman, Though my nose would differ. I'm not Viking, But my descendants have blonde and red hair. I am a beneficiary of the dark ages, The scriptoriums and monasteries That brought the Greeks and Romans to life. I am not Gael, though my eyes smile When I hear the harp and pipes. Neither am I Saxon nor Norman, Victorious or defeated. I, we, have metamorphized, Casted of the moulted casement, Spread dry wings and lifted, Carried on fresh winds To new worlds To read, write, fish and hunt, And I have gathered My lineage, Framed it in genetics on my wall, To point at in fond remembrance Of what I once was.

Wings of darkness float my way I am the ocean, a sprawling black mess But I still can't sea Harsh orange rages on forever Words are scattered like puzzle pieces that won't fit Colours unravel whether or not I want It's too much, trying too hard to be victorious The whispering, the endless laughter, it's driving me to a pit Pain takes flight as a member of a controlling fleet Embracing the full fury of a blackened spiral To slowly drag me away to a chamber of scorching heat Everything feels so painful, yet I don't stop it Because it's glorious For one moment, I feel triumphant Soon the feeling will drag me under with it But to hell with long-lasting pleasure Serenity Happiness Wings of darkness take me away

Wings of Darkness
I'm sitting here on the darkest night when a poem comes and says, "stay there", and silence will be your friend. Let's pretend to know each other even though we never remember faces like the people we once loved. I'll say this and everything you hate shut up. You are victorious over all solitude.

Imagine
Almost round 4:00pm two Asian lover dovers with giggly laughter took the South Bound subway to South Philly. Their outward display was so neat and pleasing like a painter with my pen I had to write this... Watching two Asian school youths;     frequently there; every smile every nuance of expressions,     their soul-mate world tells about their quiet and giggly adoration Transformed from their     hard steel bench is now a park bench     Encompassing strident voices fade; Their happy world is victorious She sits upon his lap     And whispers; they faintly laugh Their entwined thoughts     cannot be pulled asunder As I write, I observe;     I laugh to myself, the remembrance     of my soul-mate and myself many years ago...

Lap sitting
Sitting past the reeds upon a willow tree the kingfisher surveys his watery larder With keen polaroid eyes a victim he spies and measuring distance he makes his next move A flicker in thought his blue metallic wings now do go into action such a beautiful thing Down from the branches wings folded back he darts into the stream by the banks waters edge The minnow that was hunting has now become the hunted and out of crystal waters the kingfisher is victorious Out of the stream with feathers to preen after a hearty fill of minnow and bream By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I’ve been labeled with a term that begins with P and ends with oet But I owe it to to those listening to explain the steps I’ve taken 225 days of mistaken tippy toes and battles fought arresting a demon to keep him caged thirsty He stays thirsty Drips of thick liquid that bring cure to others make his body sick but his mind goes at ease The random shocks of pain that jolt throughout my body telling me to get more is a reminder that this struggled battle will never be over This devil on my shoulder is whispering terms of endearment while the angel is tirelessly hanging off my biceps trying to whisper his words of truth There’s no other way around it I live by the standard ‘once an addict always an addict’ I am an addict Before that fact jumps down your throat to join the heart that jumped up in it, let me explain Addicts like me work long *** days breaking their back to break bread and emerge victorious in their ocean of mistakes Instead of treading H20, it’s theraflu and pepto, I used to be drowning but now I’m only waist deep Slowly, day by day, the drain taking it away makes the level of pepto low Soon, maybe I’ll be able to say I’m in a puddle getting my tippy toes wet in OTC’s Then it’ll dry My tongue shall stay dry Like that of the demon that stays Caged Thirsty Waiting for a day that my mentality meets frustration so great that I’m attempted to sling that syrup down my throat so suddenly that my stomach acid is left in wonder Silently slipping into a comatose state that no soul may recover from To prevent this, I’ll pin praying hands to my nose and speak to a God that I’m not even sure is listening As I apologize from straying away from the path he’s set for me, I’ll look forward and realize that the hurting is gone Indeed, more will come But there is no fear in these eyes My mother’s soft touch on my shoulder Friends cementing their hands to my spine to make sure I stay standing I feel safe and secure to stand on a cliffs edge while the oceans muddy water rushes at it’s walls I will not fall Because I just showered And I intend on staying clean…

I’ve been labeled with a term that begins with P and ends with oet But I owe it to to those listening to explain the steps I’ve taken 225 days of mistaken tippy toes and battles fought arresting a demon to keep him caged thirsty He stays thirsty Drips of thick liquid that bring cure to others make his body sick but his mind goes at ease The random shocks of pain that jolt throughout my body telling me to get more is a reminder that this struggled battle will never be over This devil on my shoulder is whispering terms of endearment while the angel is tirelessly hanging off my biceps trying to whisper his words of truth There’s no other way around it I live by the standard ‘once an addict always an addict’ I am an addict Before that fact jumps down your throat to join the heart that jumped up in it, let me explain Addicts like me work long *** days breaking their back to break bread and emerge victorious in their ocean of mistakes Instead of treading H20, it’s theraflu and pepto, I used to be drowning but now I’m only waist deep Slowly, day by day, the drain taking it away makes the level of pepto low Soon, maybe I’ll be able to say I’m in a puddle getting my tippy toes wet in OTC’s Then it’ll dry My tongue shall stay dry Like that of the demon that stays Caged Thirsty Waiting for a day that my mentality meets frustration so great that I’m attempted to sling that syrup down my throat so suddenly that my stomach acid is left in wonder Silently slipping into a comatose state that no soul may recover from To prevent this, I’ll pin praying hands to my nose and speak to a God that I’m not even sure is listening As I apologize from straying away from the path he’s set for me, I’ll look forward and realize that the hurting is gone Indeed, more will come But there is no fear in these eyes My mother’s soft touch on my shoulder Friends cementing their hands to my spine to make sure I stay standing I feel safe and secure to stand on a cliffs edge while the oceans muddy water rushes at it’s walls I will not fall Because I just showered And I intend on staying clean…

"Alexander son of Philip, and the Greeks except the Lacedaemonians--" We can very well imagine that they were utterly indifferent in Sparta to this inscription. "Except the Lacedaemonians", but naturally. The Spartans were not to be led and ordered about as precious servants. Besides a panhellenic campaign without a Spartan king as a leader would not have appeared very important. O, of course "except the Lacedaemonians." This too is a stand. Understandable. Thus, except the Lacedaemonians at Granicus; and then at Issus; and in the final battle, where the formidable army was swept away that the Persians had massed at Arbela: which had set out from Arbela for victory, and was swept away. And out of the remarkable panhellenic campaign, victorious, brilliant, celebrated, glorious as no other had ever been glorified, the incomparable: we emerged; a great new Greek world. We; the Alexandrians, the Antiocheans, the Seleucians, and the numerous rest of the Greeks of Egypt and Syria, and of Media, and Persia, and the many others. With our extensive territories, with the varied action of thoughtful adaptations. And the Common Greek Language we carried to the heart of Bactria, to the Indians. As if we were to talk of Lacedaemonians now!

In 200 B.C.
All is calm. relaxing and re-energizing in the sun. enjoying the sweet sugar-rich liquid. With no time to spare, Enemies zoom by in a flash! Faster than a bullet But still able to see its distinct wings. Flying over again, Dive bombing, trying to take over. Both take off into the air soaring all around! whizzing faster than the speed of light! Racing high up to the heavens then plunging to the ground at full force! but able to pull back at the last second! gliding swiftly across earth. shrieks condescend between the two! As they fight flying over the land They don't even notice what has happened. another hummingbird lands and enjoys the sweet victorious nectar.

War Planes
We climbed from bedrock to Idyllwild the home of Pines to Palms and Suicide Rocks but not for us only for those poor tired souls for whom the world's gone flat refusing the night threw itself boldly into the fray of winds which blew from storm to calm so this morning we awoke to a placid knap slipping on snowy piste to turn cold snaps hot spiced Nepali tea sipped from ice nipped cups I see promise picks up from backward leaps time forward flips breaking free range igneous into pan piped sizzling congenial song that carries on the tree line like spring water sprung from creeks to go scurrying off with wet socks until pulled up by old school granite skies hanging pools out to dry in sopping blue rinsed sun ahead any bald rocks or hairline fractures are long since dialled in as baseless fears knowing this mobile age can merrily slip like air through numb fingers while baseline hands declare “hold me close to gather” edelweiss echoes gone rappelling through time the route we've chosen's to be tied to each other's peaks in the way of sun and moon come what may be it creases in our skin or crevasses we'll win the battle to slim line any overhanging ridges so I take care to tighten my girth hitch to top notch and hold firmly to both your conviction and reach that setting out to move mountains we call home achieves more than staying home and calling mountains so bright you have me forget all things too trite banal office hype shopworn old hat mowing lawn weekends too dishy to be clichéd you polish off the stereotype slam the Dior on out of shape and dull as ditchwater tripe keeping a victorious secret or two in the slip knot too tranquil shade taking allure to new heights we'll never drop down from tonight

My heathen greeting for I am old now Wildfowl whispered on marshland like maidens around burning fires, The Norse winds breathing in my soul ‘Odin doth call’ Blood is the sweat of this iron sword; proud are war smiths I watch the coal biter musing in blood damp earth, Before a fire and smoke of tallow he dreams of war Fill these horns to brim, for I shall drink to Odin’s law And eat I this meal of bread oyster and mussel shell I see heavens stained blood red clouds as we cross the rainbow crystal bridge,  we shall enter Valhalla victorious once more, Lo shall they bleed at shores blooded by iron the Saxons fall, Raged fires shall consume their roof as thunder of north comes forth You call us ****** that which pierces dark shadows, We blow our horn in assembly before Odin warriors of the north Settings suns shone red as quiet falls, serene I see Valhalla the goat and mead hall, roasting beef and herring I no longer fear drowning suns for the Valkyries sweet song I do hear Freyja shall breathe my new reign at dawn   The old wars are over but our fight shall ne’er end, ─ Lo I see my father ASPAR (Arnay Rumens)  © 2013

My Heathen Greeting
Love to his singer held a glistening leaf, And said: ‘The rose-tree and the apple-tree Have fruits to vaunt or flowers to lure the bee; And golden shafts are in the feathered sheaf Of the great harvest-marshal, the year’s chief, Victorious Summer; aye, and ’neath warm sea Strange secret grasses lurk inviolably Between the filtering channels of sunk reef. All are my blooms; and all sweet blooms of love To thee I gave while Spring and Summer sang; But Autumn stops to listen, with some pang From those worse things the wind is moaning of. Only this laurel dreads no winter days: Take my last gift; thy heart hath sung my praise.’
