A description of one
Forces the mind to think
Of rudimentary traits
Anything but distinct
One man's frailty
Another man's strength.
One woman's resilience
Another woman's resent.
Yet the further we progress
The more we find
That the characteristics of us
Are not so easily defined.
Over multitudes of moments
Information is learned.
And instinctively shared
Between two, unstirred.
With this is mind
The following must be asked
For no sane person
Can ignore what has passed.
How can nature
Create a bind so strong
And then cast one aside,
Leaving them utterly alone?
No remorse, no sympathy
No regard for one's strife
So e
There will be a time
When all is completely lost.
All vision, all sound
All smell, and all choice.
Yet the world will go on
Without you at all in mind
There will be no sudden halt
In the grand continuum of time.
The grass will rustle on
Photographs will remain still
The clouds will thunder more
O'er those memorable lofty hills
So when you say fair well
To a particular chapter of your life
Remember that there is crop left
To meet the edge of your steady scythe.
Our mourning is a measure
Of the love that we had
Evidence of the good,
Is demonstrated by the sad.
But time does not pause
For our woes and our wrongs
We must con
Who did ask
For their demise?
Not he, not they
Not you, not I
Who thrust them in
And left the poor fools?
Turned his shoulder
Then encrypted the rules
Who abandoned their child
At the farmer's front door?
No one was home
For a month or more
Who started to love you
And then ran a mile?
Cutting off contact
Insisting upon denial
Who's the one with the key
Whom swallowed it whole?
Then danced upon the fire
Of unlit coal.
Who removes themselves
From every bit of blame?
Tells you he loves you
And then commits thee to the flame
And if these ugly crimes
Have to them a culprit
Ask them why they feel
Their name deserves worsh
When the slanted world is all they can see
And the accusing eyes glare upon me
Ill question my thoughts
Ill question my rights
Ill listen to the self-righteous
Infecting my sight
Once everyone has told me
That I am in the wrong
I will explain that I am sorry
For the awful things that I have done
After years of reflection
Clarity will be ushered forth
Ashamed of itself
For the silence that it swore
The Others erroneous thought
Will be uprooted in a shot
Ethics was true to me
Never, was there a paradox!
This is little matter
To the poetic latter
When they cannot even espy
How wrong theyve been
Lightning sparks across a cracked plain
The first rain drops splash amongst dense, dry sand.
Sand white
encounters stormy grey
Along the straightest line one can imagine.
Moisture warps upon the surface of dust...
Flash of blue velvet!
Inside as well as out
Cognition is not to be lost
Remain open;
Ever alert
Ever aware
Sword at the ready
Mind vindicated of despair.
Incipio!
Listen to that melody
Ringing in the air
Do you recognise its tune?
Its vibrance? Its flare?
It seems so entirely correct
To our lives and the world
You can recognise its humming
In a flower petal or the city vogue.
If only there was a way
So we could wind the record back
And listen to the piece
From the first to the final track.
But I am handed my groove
Where the needle now lies
An entire moment of the universe
Described with the most detailed lines.
The beginning may be unclear
But that does not mean that we are free
To blindly write our own composures
Without knowing which key.
Have you ever seen green,
That was so unusually mean?
But it matched the picture that it was in.
It gave resonance to the moment
Maybe despondence, if you chose it
But not composure that would normally be seen.
A trace of green
On a landscape scene
Like the mischievous glint in a child's eye.
Such a rarity that we should cherish
But simultaneously leave unnourished
For once touched it is gone forever.
Disgust
cannot be helped when you gaze
Upon the stage that is the World
Said a Voice around the dining room table.
A line of smoke
Advances the frontier
Past the times of shattered souls.
What was once near impossible
can now be exposed with the natural gesture of a Hand.
And that mangled sound
Has been masked as profound
The bell,
The death knell
doth ring.
Little Tim will never win,
Not with chances so slim
Against the pastor and the Patriots gold.
Liberty and comfort.
Thought
And recognition
Leading to philosophies of nothing.
The church bells sing
The death knell rings
Just once,
But in a thousand places.
For Little Tim to Win
Would be a very good thing.
We must support Little Tim,
For if he does Win
L
But simplicity avoided
We insist on destroying it
Bastards pull the veils tight.
In-groups and systems
to prevent a resistance,
Ensuring one's foot in the right face.
Tim is not a rebel
He just strives for the medal
That we all should be making efforts to attain.
No matter how far the stretch
It should never be set
to say one did not try because success was undefined.
Definition beseech us
Where infinity meets us
Delight in our advantages
Unbeknownst.
Paths decay
In open glades
The mountains, then cities lay next.

Confidence in the populus
A shyness in oneself.
The utter exterior,
Of a world needing help.
Arrogant they say,
Without a moment's delay.
Irony, I reply,
And consequentially a lie.
Having the audacity
To deny six billion people,
From the politician in his office,
To the vicar under his steeple.
A meme can have arduous effects,
Allow it to affect all but yourself!
Confessions of a Young Man by humanism, literature
Literature
Confessions of a Young Man
An apology in advance
- save those who have already come foul of our sin.
There is a game we play
And by 'we', I mean men;
Some of us aware,
Others not as yet.
A playing of the hearts
Not much different from the suit in cards.
To Womankind I must openly confess
Of the inner deviance man does possess.
Achieving nothing of importance
Our young Pechorian dreams
Linger at the sight of a supple cheek
Or the smell of a yearned for neck.
And my pursuit begins,
With nothing but pure rejection to abstain
I live for that moment,
The chase,
The game!
At the end you will ask,
"Why do you search for me?"
I will reply with arrogance a
Poor, insufferable man!
With his whimsical worries
And plain stupid desires.
His fear of the end
Only wastes what is left
Worshipping idols
None of which exist
As if that will save him
From an eternity of rest.
And if I existed.
Like I'd give a damn
None clings to hope
So ignorantly as man.
Non-conceptual birth
And mitotic food
A Hitlerian death toll
That is excused as eventual good.
All because,
You are afraid of the end
An instinct in all living creatures
From bacteria to men.
So why not just accept
That this is probably the last
An issue that matters little,
When attempts are made to grasp...

Watching blue mountains enclave
Glittering rivers

Glowing log fireside
Hollow footsteps on the floor
Seductive comfort

The note a drop makes
On an open mountain lake
Rings peace to my mind

Haiku aim to please
Like most items Japanese
Through the short and sweet

Light shines in slim shards
Through water on forest bark
Soft is the stream's tune

Would be a very good thing.

My new poem Sighted, it's been a long while since I've written anything but now it feels right. Needed some inspirational event, and it just come to me in the last two hours.
Hope you enjoy.
The new additions are from a collection I begun at home on a different computer, now I am at home I have the opportunity to submit them. So no, I did not knock all these out in five mintues!
