"wedlock" poems
She loved the catnip Straight for the hip She was like an alley cat With a worn out welcome mat Her tail rang a chime And every tom stopped on her dime Petting was blunt For all the toms went for the hunt Affront of the beat Two cats in heat Nights played out in false hearts Howls were off the charts Brief was the moment Lost was the fulfillment Days sagged later A same old story, bye alligator Much to the chagrin Of the alley's spin When her baby was born She was forlorn Like a woman out of wedlock Dealing with tom's, full of croc My sister, I watched you fall My words to you hit a blank wall You played the game Without a flame Sadness as your son bleed Now years later he followed your lead Logan Robertson 8/09/2018

My Sister I Watched You Fall
Before you get lost in the unfinished maps of her veins the ones like yours, but not stitched up too many times to count on the ticks of a clock, make sure that she trusts you enough to tell the truth. Make sure that she loves you enough to know how you lie. Remember that every single time you open your mouth, she's wishing you're saying I love you. Remember that on Fridays she doesn't want to cook. And she sure doesn't want you to cook anything that was slaughtered. Remember that she prefers cheap whiskey over champagne. And when you're opening your ribcage to show her how fast your heart beats when she grabs your wrists, make sure the butterflies are set free. Make sure they find the window. Make sure they find a home. Remember that every living creature is just that, living. Remember that they have a heartbeat. And when you stop breathing when you see her with her hair down, when you're thinking about starting a religion about girls with flowers for eyes, tell her she's beautiful. Tell her she's so full of the future. Get her a telescope so you can show her the moon when it's bigger than both your thumbs. Take her skiing while it's Summer in Australia even though you curse the snow as if it were born out of wedlock. Let her know she's not the first but she's definitely the only, and you're so scared of dying. You never know what you have until it's locked firmly in your grasp as if to not let it run away. You might lose a lot of blood but you'll never lose your way home. I don't want to hear the dial tone. I want to hear your voice, I want to hear you scream. Tell me to leave. Tell me that I am the only road that leads you to a purpose. That in a world of blindness I am so technicolour. Even though I can't promise you that, I can give you my words, thrusted from my lungs like wildfire. Searching for the way out. Talk to me about religion, please please convince me that there is something out there other than rotting in the ground for all of eternity. Bible scripture doesn't whisper of your lips like my pillows do. I never really thought about pillow talk until they started speaking me to sleep. I find myself found by the curvature of your spine, of the shadows that take up residence on your shoulders like they have lived there all along. I want to kiss away every bit of pain that has ever stopped you from smiling at strangers and let you know that I'm coming home and I will always find your hands. Let your ribs shake when your heart has had enough. Let them shake. Let the rain come through your window while you're sitting there in your makeshift darkroom. You are the only thing I know about consistency. And before I get lost in the unfinished maps of your veins, I will be making sure they lead to me.

You know that I am the needed release, the paramount sanction. I come after the denial of yourself. I cause your desire for physical, psychical, spiritual liberation. I alone can create you anew by reversing the *********** back into your core - Forcing the nakedness and cleanliness of holistic wedlock - of merged bodies and souls - of the intensity that splits and destroys the ego. Here in these arms and ***** - Here in these fluids and caresses - the holy mystery will lovingly envelope you. My sacred sexuality will anoint you king. - fr

Spring is in the air and so is married love; For marriage is a gift from up above. Holy wedlock offers one unending joy Which all the sands of time will ne'er alloy: Once you're married both of you are free To get stuck into some adultery. From now on each new fornication Will have an extra-marital relation. So go and get your neighbours' tongues a-wagging: With some adulterous randy ******** ******** *Ah! que j'aime une nuitée chaude de fornication (tellement, tellement mieux que la ************

Ode to Adultery
If one pulls A sheep astray The flock is sure To move that way. To fish in a troubled water De-constructing history Thwart we could The old social fabric of unity And create we shall A generation Suffering a crisis of identity! *“Ask me not why They are better than My  peers and I Also sensitize me not to deny, What I see with my naked eye! In attire,grooving,life style , Cosmetic application and civilization They galvanize youth's attention!”* Come up with a generation We shall That does not bat an eye Our dictates to buy, A generation that does barter An age-old culture With fads,for such a venture Proves  to it an adventure. To achieve what we terribly sought If we use somebody of note Fame that has got Say an artist or a poet The mob will not Fight-shy to drink a lot From our poison *** Without a grain of salt “God doesn't exist " Could be top on the list! Alas, we could say  “Worship us!" *"Forget the Key And Lock theory! Why should you worry?"* Or social and religious  norms We could rock With *“A lock could lock a lock even in a wedlock!”*

A Herd Mentality
So seeing at the feet of the cross was Mary Magdalene looking for one last time in her soul lover's eyes before the death of love (Eros?) But in the distance is the Gnosis Knight Jason watching this scene of utter Substituted Love - (Bearing one another's burdens) this Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) in action? The death of duality and the unitive power and wisdom of God; yes the bringing together in the bridal chamber of the groom and bride in loves Eros type death in cosmic reality? The Gnosis Knight Jason comes close to the cross smiles at Mary Magdalene and whispers do you see by my eyes Mary? I see two Christ's becoming Unitive in Jesus and his body, male and female? I see Chokmâh (Wisdom) also on the cross in death with her husband part of Christ? This is Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) of The Christ, This is Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) of The Christ, This is Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) of The Christ, So I see Chokmâh with a full Red Rose Crown on the temple of the Christ; this is on the blessed head of Jesus, the son of humanity? Then Jesus gives up the Eros (Romantic Love and Passion ) and dies? The sky turns black to say is LOVE (Eros, the Romantic Love and Passion) really dead? Then they take the body of Jesus to the garden tomb to plant the Rose Bush Seed of Love (Eros, Romantic Love and Passionate Love) in the earth for three days to grow into the fullness of Agape (Universal Love?) Then Mary Magdalene waits in the bridal chamber (human heart) she keeps the hope and knowing Love's Passion is stronger than death itself? The Gnosis Knight Jason is waiting to see his Queen Chokmâh (Wisdom) come from the garden tomb as well? Then on that blessed morning Mary Magdalene says the blessed words my Teacher? The rest of the story is known. But Gnosis Knight Jason sees a woman caring for a budding Rose bush and she turn's and smiles; yes Knight Jason; It is I the Queen part of Christ; Chokmâh (Wisdom) Herself? So The Queen Chokmâh (Wisdom) says to the Queen's Hand; the Knight Jason; it is I, Chokmâh (Wisdom) Herself Again? Because Her Knight Jason was shocked and never answered the first time? Because he thought she really is apart of The fullness of Christ Itself? Then the good Knight Jason answer's; I am not worthy to be your blessed hand my Queen? But the Queen lets her Knight give her a sweet kiss on her Blessed and Holy lips to make Knight Jason's unworthy lips clean again? So this sweet holy kiss to make his lips worthy and clean in Cosmic Reality? The Knight Jason replies - "Thus from my lips by thine my sin is purged."  Then the Knight Jason asks my Queen am I also begotten and reborn by the sweet loves holy kiss in Cosmic Reality? The Queen Smiles and says that is how the children of Wisdom are begotten in Cosmic Reality.  Then he kneels and she crown's her knight; a king of her unitive gospel of Wisdom and Life? Then Chokmâh (Wisdom) says She will give you a Red Rose Garland to grace your head and present you with a glorious Red Rose crown. The Bridal Chamber is now open for unitive Wisdom to enter into the blessed garden of the groom and bride once more in Cosmic Reality? Now the Knight Jason And King rides from that garden tomb with Chokmâh (Wisdom) before all time in Cosmic Reality? You see Knight Jason sees Red Rose Petals falling from Heaven before her blessed feet in Cosmic Reality bringing The Love, The Passion Of The Love, Friendship and True Life before Her everywhere She goes in Cosmic Reality? The Rose Fragrance of Chokmâh (Wisdom) fills Cosmic Reality Itself with the Sweet Fragrance of Love and Life and The Fragrance fill's The Groom's And The Brides of Cosmic Reality Itself? This adds the sweet Rose Fragrance to the bridal chamber of bridal chambers in Cosmic Reality? The Knight Jason's symbol of love and romance is a single Red Rose to give this single Red Rose to his sister bride in Cosmic Reality? But Christ's Passion is this Romantic Love And Passion Overcomes death; this death is not to stop the anger of God falling on humanity from The Father and The Mother parts of God? But it is a unitive Substituted Love to bring unitive power and wisdom to craft together groom and bride again in Cosmic Reality? This is to bring unitive power and wisdom and craft together the duel flames of Adam and Eve in the bridal chamber again in Cosmic Reality? So Chokmâh (Wisdom) Crafts and Sews together The Wedding Garments of the Male and the Female Knights of the Unitive Kingdom of The Single One in Cosmic Reality? So human wedlock in the flesh is a symbol of a higher Cosmic type wedlock? So romantic love and human wedlock is the door way to the garden and the bridal chamber of chambers in Cosmic Reality? So the Romance and Passion of Christ is this, This is Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) of The Christ, This is Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) of The Christ, This is Eros (Romantic Love and Passion) of The Christ.

Sixteen sweet years Of pink promises kept "I dos" and tender, gentle vows Wedding rings of gold A wedlock between two lovers Trailing wedding veils of sheer lace Love within a burning flame Kept alive throughout the years Hard times seen through together Quarrels and misunderstandings Even tiny little differences of opinions settled Never interfering with the love you share Your days of love will never end You kept your promise ever since that day When you both held hands and said fervently And wholeheartedly "I do" Then two hearts joined and became one ~Marian~

Before fools began to recycle silliness or love and *** became a commodity to be bought off the shelves of our desires. Before muscle outranked intelligence Or the loose were voted people of the year Before a misguided girlfriend replaced a faithful wife And hardwork was kicked out of the door by web scamming Before *********** became only rounds of loveless *** Common sense lived next to sanity on the street called society. Because we were too busy watering the gardens of our stupidity Common sense gradually lost all sense and sensibility until there was nothing left to compose a corpse. Very few of us attended the burial Because almost all of us didn't realize it was gone... Uncommon sense told you how high crack could get you common sense agreed you were going to feel fly But like an airplane, you'd eventually come crashing like a pack of cards. Uncommon sense got her pregnant out of wedlock While common sense was still preparing a future under a respectable roof. The same society which kick against abortion Serves the pregnant teenager a cold shoulder and self-righteous looks of disdain. How do you ponder a picture without the painting Or seperate the sea from the Navy? Downloading apps to help bridge the gap between stupidy and foolishness As the brain lies unused like an abandon project. But like Lagbaja and his mask The more you look, the less you see The fool will always go shopping but will never put wisdom in the basket.

SENSUS COMMUNIS (COMMON SENSE)
The day my great-grandfather deserted the German army because he was a proud Austrian and no **** The day my grandfather was given away by his own mother because he was born out of wedlock, and shame to the Chinese gardner. He grew up a half cast in a white family in racist 1940s New Zealand. No kiwi accent could hide his oriental blood. The day my grandfather stuck by my grandmother's side, two kids barley 20 and not even that. He held her hand, looked into her pale blue eyes and said "I do". While she stood in a loose suit concealing her 3 month bump. The day my grandmother took my grandfather back after receiving a "Dear John". Only three days. Then only a few years until she left his world and the earth. The day my mother decided to fly home to rise a family. Boarding the plane with fragile luggage: me. These memories form tangible family members will always remain close to my heart. Those lost in a sea of faded photographs, told not to smile because the exposure was too long. The melodies of a&t; g&c; will build my body. The actions, thoughts, mistakes and growth: I will inherit today.

Stardust in your eyes, fairy tale inspiration of the princess I can see I'm just sad; a poetic anomaly, and the social deviate from being any standard of someone to love But I gave you my heart—to concede the respect of your royal family ties to love a moderately ******* We could find the keys to lock our love in wedlock beneath the solid surface of desires nightly imaginations of the best positions to get that perfect bedrock You're waking up in the long creases of short socks as it's human nature to want to increase An increase in the funds to afford the fun of a light-hearted pleasure under the lights of stars And I could count them all, but they'd seem less than my scars Still its astronomical of all the particles of earth that I'm always struck by your eyes stardust

Stardust eyes ✨👀
I think that I shall never know Why I am thus, and I am so. Around me, other girls inspire In men the rush and roar of fire, The sweet transparency of glass, The tenderness of April grass, The durability of granite; But me--I don't know how to plan it. The lads I've met in Cupid's deadlock Were--shall we say?--born out of wedlock. They broke my heart, they stilled my song, And said they had to run along, Explaining, so to sop my tears, First came their parents or careers. But ever does experience Deny me wisdom, calm, and sense! Though she's a fool who seeks to capture The twenty-first fine, careless rapture, I must go on, till ends my rope, Who from my birth was cursed with hope. A heart in half is chaste, archaic; But mine resembles a mosaic- The thing's become ridiculous! Why am I so? Why am I thus?

Given in Marriage unto Thee
Eliza! what fools are the Mussulman sect, Who, to woman, deny the soul’s future existence; Could they see thee, Eliza! they’d own their defect, And this doctrine would meet with a general resistance. Had their Prophet possess’d half an atom of sense, He ne’er would have woman from Paradise driven; Instead of his Houris, a flimsy pretence, With woman alone he had peopled his Heaven. Yet, still, to increase your calamities more, Not content with depriving your bodies of spirit, He allots one poor husband to share amongst four!— With souls you’d dispense; but, this last, who could bear it? His religion to please neither party is made; On husbands ’tis hard, to the wives most uncivil; Still I can’t contradict, what so oft has been said, “Though women are angels, yet wedlock’s the devil.” This terrible truth, even Scripture has told, Ye Benedicks! hear me, and listen with rapture; If a glimpse of redemption you wish to behold, Of ST. MATT.—read the second and twentieth chapter. ’Tis surely enough upon earth to be vex’d, With wives who eternal confusion are spreading; “But in Heaven” (so runs the Evangelists’ Text) “We neither have giving in marriage, or wedding.” From this we suppose, (as indeed well we may,) That should Saints after death, with their spouses put up more, And wives, as in life, aim at absolute sway, All Heaven would ring with the conjugal uproar. Distraction and Discord would follow in course, Nor MATTHEW, nor MARK, nor ST. PAUL, can deny it, The only expedient is general divorce, To prevent universal disturbance and riot. But though husband and wife, shall at length be disjoin’d, Yet woman and man ne’er were meant to dissever, Our chains once dissolv’d, and our hearts unconfin’d, We’ll love without bonds, but we’ll love you for ever. Though souls are denied you by fools and by rakes, Should you own it yourselves, I would even then doubt you, Your nature so much of celestial partakes, The Garden of Eden would wither without you.

Warm summer breeze caressing the Indian sea Trolley carts and vendors by every coconut tree Some for the jolly, some for calm Here's where I met you, our second date now. Something familiar in your hands I feel Trust invading our hearts and pain relieve Sorrows of yesterday long forgotten New days ahead I had gotten Wedlock and babies is all that I see A lifelong friend I had found All but one feeling I had felt Scared to death of who I had met The depths of your broken past Reminders from the present The true side of the court Who is to say? Like a new born child in to a home A part of your family I would become Knowing the truth kills me As being with you thrills me Steps away from you I do not want to find Life beyond this date Memories that will always be sublime

Twice as shy
From the framed picture hung on the wall Two faces look nobly down The faces of my grandma and grandpa Taking me to the times gone by Smiling at their wavering progeny, They retell the saga of their blissful life A life of selfless share and care Inspiring generations in their travail Curling back to times and climes primeval I hear the sound of their footfalls aloud In a humble dwelling, joyfully they lived As children of the soil with hands full of toil They worked together from dawn to dusk Greeting every new dawn with fresher zeal Their hearts were securely fastened in love And had needs minimum and complaints nil Two fountains that sprang from sources different Had merged together before their early teens Through wedlock they had been customarily bound At a time when they hardly knew what it meant Had played together as buddies for long Until instinct made them man and wife When fledglings were hatched in their little nest They worked together never knowing rest Hit by adversities hard, at times they sank very low But with resilience, bounced back And frugally saved every nickel and dime To meet the needs of their growing household They tottered together in the evening of their life Serving as prop to each other when about to fall In their twilight years, ambling the corridors of memory They reminisced sweetly the joyful events of life Now they lie together in the same churchyard Two streams that evenly and tranquilly ran side by side Never once been shattered on the rocks and shoals of life Making one wonder if their life is History or Fable In the swelling magnitude of our life Though trivial was their share Yet they stay as beacons of light Leaving a trail of light to blaze our paths

463 I live with Him—I see His face— I go no more away For Visitor—or Sundown— Death’s single privacy The Only One—forestalling Mine— And that—by Right that He Presents a Claim invisible— No wedlock—granted Me— I live with Him—I hear His Voice— I stand alive—Today— To witness to the Certainty Of Immortality— Taught Me—by Time—the lower Way— Conviction—Every day— That Life like This—is stopless— Be Judgment—what it may—

I live with Him—I see His face
A brown drool of dew Crackling woven's clue sitting on a desk pike adjacent copies alike But still he sits and gapes on the old momento he keepsakes with sober hands that rests and of mellow smith's vest on a creaky chair with a pendulum clock and a photograph he holds dear as four seasons pass by the dreary wedlock Through a thin-tormented picture shallow eyes become ruddy like an ill-fated venture The lost of his Mrs. and laddie that dim sullen memento of his in that old wan home is what brings him bliss but locked inside a semi-finite dome -he is-

Vivid Momentous
Everytime I hear the melodies I feel like hearing my infantile cries in harmony, piercing my eardrums with a filigree-tipped spear up to the base of my floating brain. It brings back that long ago when I first started my perpetual wedlock with it. filled with dormant dossier of nostalgia and tenacious enigma, that has changed my life into oblivion. all is gone but the echo of ripples tingling in my mind. like the swinging of strings, I want to hold it again, but this time, forever close to me. This enchanted piece of wood, formed in amorously curvaceous proportion, was made as if to constantly remind me of the beautiful creature called woman. ever changing, ever frustrating, yet always generous to give fair chances to those who persist to seek the price of its elusive charm. It never failed to make my veins and arteries vibrate in ecstacy, drawning my reason to delirium only to be awakened by the drops of my saliva.

What's In Name?
Yes, it was a hot day for a black wedding, I swapped my life for a golden ring, I did not check those sinister omens, As I volunteered to change my cognomen, All our families, garbed in black, Once hitched, there was no turning back, A fateful dark matrimonial, Indeed, a disastrous ceremonial. 'Twas already a dim bleak wedlock, Nuptials in black was a shock, So much for my late spouse, Yelling at me to clean his house, Is biology destiny? I used to ask, Is housework only a woman's task? Once, I swapped my soul for a golden ring, Yes, it was a hot day for black wedding. (Tough!).

Amorevolous soulmates
( Brandon) wilt thou have this woman to be thy wedded wife, to live together in the holy bonds of matrimony? Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health; and forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her so long as ye both shall live? Me (to mine queen earl Jane nagley) I MORE than DO!!!! ( earl Jane) wilt thou have this man to be thy wedded husband, to live together in the holy bonds of matrimony? Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health; and forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him so long as ye both shall live? Jane- ( I MOST definitely DO) ( me putting ring of amour on Jane's hand) I, Brandon Nagley, take thee,Earl jane, to be my wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith. (Jane getting ring from her father putting ring of amour on mine) I, earl jane, take thee, Brandon Nagley, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith. Forasmuch as, Brandon Nagley and earl jane nagley have consented together in holy wedlock, and have witnessed the same before God and this company, and thereto have pledged their faith each to the other, and have declared the same by joining hands and by giving and receiving rings; I now pronounce you man and wife, you may kiss the bride...... ( me) getting down first before kissing her, I kneel, kissing both her hand's on one knee. and staring in her eye's, ( tear's come down) from all the happiness and joy inside me... I stand up...... ( kiss for ten minute's) tears flowing both of our eyes) Clapping and smile's in the crowd of friend's and family..... I sing for her..... In front of all, as we dance....... On that wedding floor, Until the night end's, Though we stay up the whole day Until a day and a half later We fall asleep into eachother's arm's.. In heaven In bliss... Two hand's In one marriage.... As tis when we waketh up; Mine queen stareth at me And sais " I loveth thee most" As tis I sayeth back Me more...... ©Brandon nagley ©Earl Jane nagley/wedding day dedication ©Lonesome poet's poetry
