Q

by Jake Vincent Belmont

Quadrennial quacks

Quantifiably questioned

Quotations quashed quick

Quondam quarrels queue

Quislings quibbling, quiver

Quietly quelling

Quagmires quaking

Qualified queues quiescing

Quintessential quos

Quixotic quorums

Quadrilaterally quest

Quicksand quandary

P

by Jake Vincent Belmont

Pause, perchance? Pacifistic people pine pandemically. Prophetic, poetic prose proffers purpose, protection.

Please pause! Perilous, pernicious players perpetuate programmed partisanship. Precious poetry provides peace, prosperity! Please perform. Per people's possibility. Promises, palliative promises, please!

Pardon. Pardon persistence. People's paradise pulls powerfully, painstakingly. Pl...

And So We Are

by Jake Vincent Belmont

With breaths incomplete, more like a robot's

Who am I, if not half of a whole?

My starving heart is tangled up in knots

And the grip suffocates my soul

Dreams invade my implanted thoughts

Shiver through the pain and cold

And so I am

Seasons peaking with perfect promise

My summer flame faces the unknown

Joining the gold-bleeding artists

I strive to find a sense of...

What I Get

by Jake Vincent Belmont

If I could stop overthinking
and calm down when nothing happens
In order to be disgraced and move on
to not soon enough omit the quickly forgotten

If I could stop idealizing
and just give love purely and real
To actually be civilizing
so all can begin to really heal

Then I get a world of predators and cheats
among all individuals on every continent
With so many warring gods
there...

Eleven & Twelve

by Jake Vincent Belmont

Come with me, she says. Down a black alley,

Into an oddly tucked garage. To where, Elle?

I hurriedly spout, but there's no time now

We must be faster, lest we should be caught

Her radiating magnetism pulls

Like the sunfire inside of candles

Still, from the very moment we locked eyes

I'm drawn like the () of butterflies

This cosmic power must not be a ploy

I'm surrenderin...

The Lovers Lost

by Jake Vincent Belmont

With each lover lost

Walks a piece of my soul

So publicly private

I'm a cliche of unique

Cultivated common grounds

On which I stood some shelter

So rotten with luck

I can't tell if I'm malignant

Blossomed petals of balance

And sunshaded

With time to consider time

And yoga as I write

Footing hardened

By entwining energies

So alive I could die

If Only We Knew

by Jake Vincent Belmont

Our hearts are like hurricanes

Pinned down and abused for being water
Our hearts are like most others'
Just left alone for us all day
Our hearts are like hurricanes
Swelled up and abused

All around you, all around me
The storms, the seas, the skies
I've often tried to calmly see
The sun, the fields, the tide

Brave it now, hold it down

If only we knew the energy we...

Happy Huggard

by Jake Vincent Belmont

Your walls soar high

You can step outside

Breathing feels alright

Young is the night

You're ready to lie

You hide it all inside

Who would dare put up a fight?

They've only one goal in sight

What can they give to vy?

It's only your time to bide

Nothing they'd say would be right

Again you supress the fright

It's time for a new try

You pick up you...

Another Given Year

by Jake Vincent Belmont

Bittersweet Wales, her heart I must let go

March home to Berlin, let love have me so

Beneath the Italian sun I find peace

Finally Spring beckons my sacred feast

An April so novel, so sour, so pure

Shall I ever be able to find the cure?

The road welcomes my eager stride

Como paradise amplified

Mountaintop solace cradles the lake

Fireside storms' chorus dulls th...
