Veiled
Words with anonymity
In verse and rhymes writ lyrically
You know her ever openly
Yet never have, before, met she
A shelter to unveil her soul
Shared with kindred minds, unknown
That which some may never know
She gives to you, candid, in poem
All her words, you hear, her here
A sonnet homophone
Layered in the many lines
Her substance; flesh and bone
Under lock and key will she
Remain a mystery
Until the door is opened
Through her prose and poetry
Puzzle you?
Roses are blue,
Violets are red;
Enough has been heard,
Nothing has been said;
Regret the success,
Celebrate the mistake;
Aim for first fail,
Dread when you place;
Dream of your fears,
Run from your hopes;
Flee from your friends,
Run toward your ghosts;
Strive for ignorance,
Rebel against success;
Love when you're last,
Hate when you're best;
Follow your head,
Ignore your big heart;
It's good to be dumb,
It's bad to be smart;
Beauty is hated,
Ugliness is loved;
Light is from below,
Dark is from above;
The game is beginning,
The explanation is done;
Reverse all last words,
These are fun ones.
B-Box
I sit inside a shell.
I do what I want to do.
I can re-create a picture.
I can see inside of you.
I am gentle to the touch.
I am very hard to see.
I am round and beautiful.
I know you love to love me.
I am not good for everyone.
I am good for those who feed.
I am needed in everyone.
I am not one to tease.
I am now being summed up to something you can't explain.
I am simply your powerful function, I am simply your brain.
Mum’s the Word
Mum’s the word...
...There will be no quiet riot...
Only silence...
...No
Hide your tongue,
Return to
anything that would
Drive out
All the questions
From without
Which plagued your senses
In the rain...
Turn it on...fast!
defiance
In this town that
Draws it’s shutters
When the ignorance
Slides in,
Serving to dispense with
Odd.
Turning off...
At attention,
Turn and cough,
As the radio describes
What has been
Recognized
As real.
God,
Or Not
But are we flesh-?...
Come to nothing
Do we feel?...
Is there not more
Then this script?...
like Families damned, and
Now
As fuzzy strangers...
...When we try to strain
Our un-hitched eyes
There’s only what has
Been...
Every fading alteration
Has moved on,
And left the
perscribed station...
...That is why we
Must think...
Hold ignore
what’s
Crucial in our grasp...
Know what’s truthful
At our core,
And when it clashes
Not
All of it’s deviant delights
That add such substance
To our night.

Two Points of the Puzzle
Here, there's a house
A man inside the house ...
opposite of the man, vitreous.
Blond hair at house,
A pink toothbrush
and red gloves.
There are no eyes on his eyes,
And no eyes on the glass...
A woman who owns them is missing.
Every evening it reflects the house, vitreous,
And two black eyes on the puzzle are missing.
Half of a piece,
There are blazing flames
torching within me
stark agianst the
spreading dusk
my day fading under
a blanket of night
a tower of darkness
enveloping my world
sweeping all the lights,
all natural and man-made
until there is none
expect,
these blazing flames
a midnight blue dragon-flame
roaring into a world
lost to darkness
and there’s
a putrid smell of smoke
flooding my nostils
the taste of ash vivid
on my tounge
parts of my flesh torn away,
burnt away,
till you could see the ghost white
bones beneath
as I move foward,
riding aross the wind
following the line streaks
on the sky, left by stars
into the woods.
searching for a star,
a seed of an oak
with deep roots
spreading within the earth
strong agianst a tide of
tsunami,
to feed these blazing flames
and ignite them once agian,
to a firey, blazing red-orange phenoix,
that will crawl from ashs of my bones,
a shot of arrow
into my world
that will
spiral everything to life once-agian.
