Disfigured

A gun does not kill a person!

The person pulls the trigger

The social construct is correct!

Do not dissect!

Upon the Others

The Savage

The unwanted “other” immigrant

The darker pigmented persons

Defamed as the original nigger

Darwinian?

This genocide of the Palestinian

Conjured up via the cultural and political slanderer

Question being why the need to calumniate?

For the pompous superior prevaricating rogues

To ponder

The necessity to injure and create social fissure?

The World is flat!

Imagine that!

Go figure

The most dangerous people have all the answers!

Never mind

Civil discourse is out of mind and sight

With the holy chancers

When superior illusions configure!

Tis Society that becomes disfigured

Relaxation Meditation

Relax! Relax!

The day has just begun!

Relax! Relax!

Imagine lots of fun!

We -all- want- to- partake- in- the- happiness- of- life!

Forget all your troubles

Put away the daily strife!

Relax! Relax!

Join the people in the shining sun!

Relax! Relax!

Our societal purpose will be done!

We- all- want- to- greet our- future

Bounteous-and joyous

Husband- and- wife!

Internalize all outward angst

And fomenting unease inside

Leave behind on the grapevine

The all-consuming!

Totalitarian Zeitgeist

Banish all your worries!

Let your conscious

Unconsciously!

Give up!

Mind unwind

Come to Life!

The Heat St. Pete!

Sweltering

Sizzling

Bacon in a pan

Sweating

Fizzling

Hot air blowin’ out the fan!

King Humidity rules the Lands!

Hazy array of space

Arising in my perceptual span

Stomach gettin’ queasy

Cool drinks go down easy

Summer days haze

Sun set to blaze

The heat!

St. Pete

Send forth the atmospheric refreshing ocean wave!

Cool the Planet!

Of vehement Climate Change!

Imagination

Knowledge certainly has its firm place

Yet it is imagination

Throughout all of creation

Which hath changed the way

Pointing optimistically

Or Ominously?

Towards the Future

Of all living beings

Designed “things”

Surveillance flings?

Progress/Regress wait

At Heavens Gate

Whilst childhood friends

Evolution

Ideas

Mother Nature’s Constitution

And Imagination!

Go out to play

Bearing

In Boering

The Brown Bear bears down

Teddy bear snug

Offering a bear hug

Walking bare-footed

Attaining his bearing In the woods

Is more than he could bear

Bear with me!

I can hardly bear it!

I swear it

This bareness in prose?

Summon the forbearance!

Barely?

Overbearers’ must forbear!

Positing as the bearer of gifts of ursine opine?

Twill lead to readers hibernation from thine poetic station ruin!

This brutish troubadour bard’s

Bewilderment of bruins!

Ursidae and Ursus wild animal acclimation!

Enduring yet bearable rhythmic shrine

In commemoration of the carnivore’s torpor

First day out of hibernation

Into the natural sunshine

Guardrails

Guardrails must be maintained

The fluidity of living is to blame

There is no rest in the Reaper’s game

Pop!

Goes the weasel!

Production can be lethal

At once the peril point crossed

Whispers of goodbye torment

As do the hope of secure retrieval

The past is now yet a blur!

Injury and ruin will mark the future

Proper fortifications to protect

Humanity’s safety

Are a necessary feature

Money alas!

Can create a most dangerous creature

Safety must not be

Solely a preacher

Guardrails

Protect the laboring breacher

Construction Safety

Tamp down the incident possibility

Via the Team

And me

More securely carrying

The enormous responsibility

Of the toilers heavy load

Shadow

Why do you follow elastically?

Sprightly slithering alongside me

Sunny days an appearance forms

A particular life force

Representing the present moment!

Expressing to the boulevard my feelings!

Shadow!

What manner of pleasure

Pain?

Pathway

Poetry!

Spirit of the elders?

Entwined in me

Do you beseech?

Awareness!

Practically dancing in the streets!

Willest thou reveal intrinsically

Shape-shifting celestial portrait

Endearingly designed to see

Thine ministry

The Chicken Coup

Each day

Sunny or gray

The benevolent farmer makes his way

To my chicken coop

The daily vittles!

My hunger to allay

The Universe does not change!

Fixed and immutable

The comfortable constant array

The night skies flicker

As the stars dancing up in space!

Grace doth falleth upon this homestead place!

Whoosh!

The fine-tipped blade

Introduced

Pray tell!

What hath happened!

My head!

From my body

The farmer hath erased!

What has Mother Nature deduced?
