MR BEAUREGARD

I will never leave you

I will never deceive you. 

 

All I need is to be by your side. 

 

Now that I am old...

I may need a ride

 

from room to room

so I may follow. 

 

My heart is yours

do not dispare

 

I will always care

of that you can be sure. 

 

You will never be alone

you do not need a phone

 

to call me

 

Because

WANTED

People who do not have all the answers

instead are looking for solutions

People who allow others to find their path

instead of trying to drag them down theirs

People who love and share and dare

To be part of the unknown world

We live in.

THE GIVING HOUSE

I took your family

thru many journeys

 

Different generations

 

Different needs

 

I sheltered you while you healed

and figured out what was next

 

I gave the children a place to play

that was rough and tumble

 

I may look small but my gifts

have been large

 

Soon I will retire and maybe

move on to other families

 

Or my walls may fall

Technological Breakthrough

and their underlying machinations
proved useful in passing the "Turing Test"
to deceive the people — via machine learning

And,

The Faith in humanity’s childlike creativity
to get us out of this predicament
left to our own devices,
the generations of old

unwavering and determined
till the end,
filled with willpower.

… is this rare form,
burned alive from the inside,
lucid,
the thrill of the hunt
is much too abrupt
when they’re frozen out of fear

with my last breath, I’m to rest each day
only so that
the past undeath doesn’t catch up with me.

Absolutely, positively your synapses can create an electrical charge that cannot be contained
 
Waves of euphoria are made to be displayed akin to a thin layer of paint on your face
 
Just beyond the outer periphery of being able to be perceived swirling acid rain lines the inside of a dreamy third iris on the not too distant face of the deep.

Surrounded by shadow of guilt, no hope nor light's dim

Honor, I'm too grateful.

Into the sky, below the mountain,
I am quite like that: I can't
Hold my legs sticked to ground.

           dressed in brown,
Taking images of
            Trees bare and grass sere,
            Lost twilight and
                       day’s bleak sun,
           Squirrels hoarding acorns,
           Geese veering south.

           Cornucopias of apples, tangerines,

Broken Record's Repetition

For me, 

Please,

Stop cutting.

I said.

A broken record.

 

Only now,

As she lays in the grave,

Six feet under.

I wonder

if things would have changed,

If I just once asked her to

Stop cutting,

Please,

For you. 

 

Would it have made a difference, though?

The reason to cut or not remains 

the same, either way.

Nothing can change that here

Inner Child

I was sinking to the ocean floor,

We were with two

Me and a child, surrounded by blue.

Connected with a thread,

I was swimming us both to the surface,

Then somehow,

The thread broke

And I watched as the child choked,

Sinking to the bottom

I was pushed above.

Trust...

They reach me,

And,

I give them my all,

Yet after that,

They leave me Alone.

They will come back,

Once again, for sure,

With a different face,

A different name,

A new personality,

All along,

And once again,

I will give them my all,

Will they, this time

Stay by my side?

I don't know,

But that's how Trust works,

That's how Life works.

Love Is A Violence

And if you must pierce my heart
With a dagger so sharp,
Caress with it my cheek
After you've retrieved it.
Paint my face soft,
With the violence of your love.
It is for you who my heart beats for,
Thus it is by your hands that it should stop.
May the wind blow you
My final breath to.

I do not think

There is such 

a thing as

A place,

A person,

A scent,

A sound

A touch,

A taste,

To what the faceless 

masses call home.

 

I do not think,

There is a version of me that exists,

Where home is something I have,

And not something I miss.

The present,

The future,

All in which

Hearts Of Hers

Heart of mine
Won't you stand at my side?
Stop your traitorous speeding,
So that my cheeks may stop heating.
What is it about her,
That her whole being allures
What is it about her,
That has me needing more

 

She,
Who gazes at me as if I 
Am the one who in the east rises
She,
Who sees me wholly,
Not for who I pretend to be.
She,
Who has replaced my blood,

Miles and miles of that breathtaking blue.

It deprives me of my breath

the feeling of sand grains on my skin.

Seasons - An Acrostic Poem

Sing and dance before the last leaf falls

Energy flows in swirls and zig zags

Assuage your worries and soak in the golden hues

Silent is the moon pirouetting across our night sky

Oh! Where did half our year go?

Notice the liminal spaces before and after the cold

Seasons will blow our pages to turn and turn.

Ink Runs Dry

When belief in your pen runs dry,
It leaves a lonely page staring back.
Nothing appears despite how hard you try,
Imparting a feeling you've lost your knack.

The sacred space once filled with zest,
Now dim, dusty and barely lit.
Cobb webs gather around the chest,
Once filled with treasures from grit.

These fields you once ran with grace,
Now overgrown and no path in sight.

Of an endless coloured street,

About wondrous lands that decorated the earth.
