    Poetry

    Crescent Moon

     

    There is no light where they descended,
    There is no future love to come;
    The need has faded with the grey dead,
    With lofty might a crescent outcome:
    Moon!

    You say it's nothing that you did,
    For centuries reflecting sunlight.
    You say it's nothing what you bleed
    Yet berries find their air to breathe
    Into the night..., into the night
    They breathe.

    The woods are silent as the secrets
    Of moonlit crests and peaks of pine,
    Along the path into the forest
    Light walks the mountain man.

    He strides in steps to meet the shadows
    Of ancestral belief in life
    With light that's carried in his heart he
    Lits up the path for The Moon to shine.

    Proud, tall reminder of her brother,
    The lover she had never had!
    Son of the Sun-Gods, lofty father
    Of two girls and a growing man.

    The Vegan Style Pt. I

    I couldn't hate this world of Yours more, 
    What's there to learn that they are too goddamn important!? 
    Oh, but I didn't know, I didn't know! 

    I tried to avoid it, 'ate all that I could, 
    Felt ill to the stomach! 
    Outch, 
    Now time to fast and heal! 

    I even became a vegan, 
    Oh, well, that went' so well!
    Only some birds here started being inviting, delicious food I reject
    Like an idiot of a vegan.

    Let's have a little fun... The stylish teen-age trend in progress, feeling too awesome to bother for anyone's mean or simply stupid attacks. 

    Never care too much for any "stupid neighbour". Just be yourself the one you need to be.

    Faustated

    I can't believe how much love you can bear, 
    Faustrated needs exposed - powerfully expressed...
    It hurt, It almost hurt but not my pride, 
    My pride is good without it. 

    Burning pride, vividly, poetically 
    Too much love can be there where it cannot hurt;

    I can't believe how much love you can bear, 
    It hurt, perhaps too much or something else, 
     Not fond of this frustrated twisted romance and blossom of more waste....
    What's wrong? Doesn't the world have enough gelee waters 
    To choose from?

    I can't believe how much love you can take... 
    It's probably me, not willing to understand.

    Sound of the familiar....

    You didn't know that I was going to get this broken, 
    All that you did was living your poor life in peace
    and fights all too normal and fun,
    You didn't know how the truth prepared for me was going to hurt us all... 
    Oh, still you... you poor thing!

    Despicable choices for me and my mind...
    A life you wouldn't live...
    There's nothing to be proud of, 
    Why shouldn't I say a simple GoodBye!? 
    I love your pride though! 
    As usual, appreciating the great family...
    Poured tears for your salad dressings!

    Cup of Heavenly Light

    Cup of Heavenly Light

     

    'Robbing you of all your wisdom and knowledge,
    All shared for that cruel humanity
    Never to come back.


    Never to come back to a pain
    In their perfect shapes...
    We like you as you aren't.


    We always try to mold you,
    We always have ideas to share with you... 
    It's funny what we do...
    Until we aren't what we really are.

    War Field Poetry

    Atrocities
    In times of war
    We Hunt and eat each other
    Or fast and almost die of hunger, 
    We watch the Ravens coming then
    Tearing the flesh of carcasses,
    Guiding the wolves and melting pain
    Down with the blood
    Atrocious sight
    Painted.

    April 21, is World Poetry Day.

    In Science it is said that everything starts with a question... there must be a question in ones head to determine them to explore more...a need, a crave for knowledge.

    I propose a nice playful way to illustrate all beginnings of any study...
    apples eggs fruit at your choice in a basket....
    Feel free to fill in yours with what makes you happy and may you enjoy this kind of proposed abstract expression.

    Happy WORLD POETRY DAY!

    Basically the same thing

    I show you faith, 
                              You show me how wrong I AM,
    I show you good intentions, 
                              I can go to hell with all of them. 
    I show you kindness, 
                             Your pride tells me to go fuck myself.
    I take responsibility for my action,
    Hating my weaknesses, being too wrong, 
    Accepting them, still being too wrong, thus unacceptable.
    I show you my lost faith.... 
                                             restored.
    I show you then even more...

    I tell you lies you can happily live for,
    With my stupid work you can make you...

    Go Go plans

     

    Go there where you wanted to be,

    Where your heart is,

    Where you can find your happiness,

    Where your soul matters,

    Where you can feel free…

    Go there where the sun can make you feel good

    About your existence,

    When the moon plays her sorrows with the finest grace,

    Where the gifted are loved and not hated,

    Where all promises won’t hurt.

    Go there, where you deserve,

    Go there, where you can handle all thing well,

    Go there, where your soul matters!

    Lion Please

    Lion Heart,
    Please, don't tear my fleshly posessions with your sharp teeth, so fierce.
    I know that you need to feed
    And I know that the Great Romans want to have a good laugh, 
    Satisfy their thirst for revenge, 
    But why on me? 
    I ask knowing that this is all wrong
    And my Bones too dry for your throat.

    Seruproar

    Loner of the planet

    Where dreams give way to musing, 

    Flemditation and Jarvoy, 

    Living with Jhello made of peppers, hot, 

    Loons scouring cobbled city streets

    Frankenfood

    Well treated with modelparse wine, 

    Reflecserve chortling along in 

    Hollogramorphing

    phenoflutes; 

    Plan to watch a mockumentary,

    broken by the doorbell - 

    A fairy telegram: 

    Invite to brunch

    From Trolly,

    Best friend, the only,

    One to teach me

    How to use my spork. 

    Glad to lose the smog of this morn,

    I dress-up cheching the mirror: 

    Great a fit of my suithalf.

    Issue sol

     

    Drops of bright rain fall from the sky

    As saviour issues warn the skies

    Elements of darkness find their place in my mind,

    Burning chalk and charcoal for a wish to live or die. 

     

     

    Drained of my tears I wonder and doubt

    That everything is going the way I desire,

    The whole world wishes to be free

    Of what pains their souls, their own spirits restless. 

     

     

    A childish poem writing to you now, 

    Feeling that there’s so much more to reveal through my words

    It’s falling rain of sadness, draining the eyes of an angel

    But I am almost comfortable with being this devil

    I’ve become. 

     

     

    Red silence, minding a duty to her king, 

    Devilish appearance believing in a fight

    For justice,

    And just...

    A heart of stone

    It is morning breeze that awakes in you
    All the beauty you were always capable of, 
    All the joy and the hope, 
    The invincible power of your soul
    United with the spirit
    Of the mighty and the strong, 
    The Wise and the all-knowing,
    Never loved 
    But for what We're beholding.

     

    A heart of stone you wanted, 
    A heart of stone you were, 
    Somebody looked for you
    To tell you who they are. 

     

    The heart of a lion, 
    Fearless, empowered
    With wisdom and wit, 
    Knowing more than the human need.

    Too much oven

    Infection with love, dangerous,
    Obsession to get cured,
    Regret follows,
    Trapped for there seems to be no way out of here,
    Enjoy All your wars, all your sorrow.

    Courage to live it, punished,
    It is only for the chosen, those who fought,
    Only everybody's fighting
    For what they want.

    Sweet and tenderly you came
    To declare all your wishes,
    My commands_

    Making love powerful.

    Only a miracle

    Sometimes we laugh and sometimes we cry

    Enjoying our moments in wealth and good vibes

    But there are those times when we get caught and despair,

    Only a miracle can save us, dear friend,

                                                                  from our poetry's tragical end. 

     

    One night fully spent in the wake of long hours,

    With thoughts streaming loud: You'll be mine,

    Look what we've prepared for you!" 

    The images moving in slow motion in waves,

    Only a miracle can save us, good friend. 

     

    Peaceful times disturbed, lust for life,

    Whip of God

     

    Lupine gathering
    Bequeathed
    Salacious opera
    Your call faithful,
    Howling at the moon _ not _ 
    Taring my faulty soul apart. 

    Thrown to the serpents a tigress,
    Warrior-woman, a saint, 
    Telling our stories, gracious,
    Tales of the lost and found. 

    Moment of cascading fang-riddles,
    Truth of the hearts healing with poison, 
    Through lacerations bleeding I share my collectables,
    Fresh tears wept for a broken heart.

    Apple Rolls

    What's this, mother? 
    - I don't know, Let's discover!
    What could be in this bag? 
    - Oh, look, a pair of gloves and mistletoe! 
    A Santa magic ball and two pine cones; 
    three angels with flutes, a bow and Christmas balls. 
    Oh, look! A heart and ginger bread...
    And Apple Rolls! You remembered! 
    the child jumps around joyously dancing
    - You remembered! You remembered! 
    - I sure did! 
    The night is slowly falling, her cover of dark ink
    Dolling. 

    Blessed a night, 
    With no fallacy snowflakes cover the grounds, 
    The air touched
    With white fairies, unique, caressing memoirs 
    Pristine hearts. 

    Blessed, the moon rises
    Above pine trees and fir, at the pass of each cloud
    Staring into the dark proud. 

    The hour of kisses under mistletoe arrives. ...

    Warbled Soul

    Tune of sharp blades,
    Voice of deep knowledge, truth delved
    Disquieting the serious
    Speaking the grim truth
    I find myself in need
    To change what's become of me; 
    Despicable gallon, 
    wily crooner. 

    Tyranny: you like us small, 
    For your pride to be greater the many must suffer,
    You are superior,
    Your time of grief ending soon
    with broken disasters
    Yielded to the world by candlelit audiences,
    a trifle apologetic
    outlining chastisement. 

    If to love and be loved is that stupid then keep being an ignorant!

    Heavy Light

     

    Stuck in this sentence of two words you once spoke,
    in a tongue I thought I should know
    all secrets and meanings
    then go...out there and explore
    its factual beauties.
    I struggle to become the whole I was shown
    I can embrace and fight!...
    ~ I am having the beats of your light!
    Now, while gathering the small bright particles of life,
    I am making a promise to myself:
    “I will keep this magic powder safe from the wrath
    of the enemy inside!”
    “-You go into fantasy! you go into that light!”
    This reality’s darkness was making me mad!
    You brought your love into this darkness of mine;
    “I think I am the one who was right but felt wrong about it...
    All ... this Time!”
    ~
    A word of caution,
    A spirit in need for a holy distraction.
    I don’t want to pay attention to every detail of my feelings towar...
