POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Assemble, and walk depicted. Perception, of prophet's prison. Repentance, or gone is wisdom. Remember, our God's forgiveness. Poetic, symbolic shifting. Replenished, when Yahweh listens. Amended, absolved specifics. Resplendence, apostles singing.
Babel
Age of inhuman, Babel confusion.
Raven recruitment, fabled from cupid.
Playing the nooses, mage's amusement.
Greater when moonlit, Satan seduces.
Graven congruence, gauging occlusion.
Ancient entombment, placing seclusion.
Tainted attunement, splaying disunion.
Latent solutions, fateful intrusion.
Anger abuses, angel induces.
Savored collusion, laymen preclusion.
Manger disproving, strangers disputed.
Reigning this movement, payment exclusive.
Graceless and gruesome,...

Night & Day
Blank canvas darkness
That night inspiration
Nocturnal aesthetic offers
Glowing in moonscape transpose
A moment here disposed
Fallen shadow contrast
Light shed gravity
Anticipated still
Silent reflection
Through fading position
Dimensional ether
Like diametric angles
Stars in the sky
Symmetry supposed
The pale white dance
Whence dawn returns
Over time's horizon
With wondrous synergy
Observant equilibrium
Attempting balance
Vibrance opens
Radiant...

Deathly Idolatry
Elemental forces
Visual imagination
Enquired emotional
Factored destiny
The positions of stars
Planetary purpose
Mindful realm
Like analysis
Unto being
Perhaps from our universe
Metaphors mistaken
Similes describe
Vast wonder
Relative disposition
Skies past, present, future
Literal interpretation
Spatial physics
Unboxed magic
Choosing chances
From out of Pandora
Heartache splays
Evolutional branches
Witchcraft concedes
Fateful morality
A Big Bang...

Our Doyley Freud (Oi, Oi, Oi Redone)
Our Doyley Freud was voyeur coin.
This royal Noid embroidered groin.
Enjoying foil destroys with cloy.
The hoisted loins are poisoned poise.
Flamboyance ploys as voices roil.
Employing noise devoid of choice.
Some 'roids had boys exploiting points.
Recoiling droids conjoin if toil.
Deployment Troy ahoy will oink.
To loiter goyle annoyance doinks.
Appointing Lloyd lest Poy for choy.
From moistened soil is Soylent soy.
A Neumann boils in toying Hoyle.
Avoidance coy when ointment spoils.

10 Wondrous Senryu Poems
Lost in Confusion:
Mystery enquired
Paradox alienates
No truth and purpose
Fallen Suddenly:
Thievery question
Fragility foundation
Unstable collapse
Imagined Expanse:
Above atmosphere
Observational below
Connection wondrous
Idolatrous Guess:
The gift of the stars
Deceitful ultimatum
To expect answers
Separate Conscience:
Physics fabricate
Presumably literal
Spirit spatially

Warrior & Princess
The dragon's haze
In reptile scales
Depicts gravity
Spinning my eyes
With sensual whirlwind
Taking my breath away
In fleshly wonder
To experience the fire
Of darkened fallout
Graven pits
Lest confession
Consequent disposition
A captivating commitment
Instant tempest perpetuity
That certainly dissapates
Along with time
The cravings of desire
To smoke and ashes
Rising in the air
Infinitely miniscule
Mystical and mythical
My golden quest
Purifying in...

The Spell Cast
Construing akin
Immovable glimpse
Confusion and witch
With Lucifer's wish
Congruently synced
A moonlit distinct
Unusual pit
Deluding to lips
Allusions of sin
In-lieu of a kiss

Atmospheric Gathering
Planetary orb
Singular crescent eclipse
Befallen angle
Dimensional folds
Through complex entanglement
Radial shadows
Positions of stars
Behind rationality
Vastly vivacious
Still to creation
Oneness brightened vibrantly
Suspension alike
A flowing conduct
Amassing oscillation
Vector valence waves
Atomic shell force
Noetic enlightenment
Lucid ionic
Consciousness betwixt
Mechanical division
Manifest being

Beheld Merciful (Edited)
Age lasting before
Froward whence came to be from
Creation until
Great inheritance
Planetary universe
Intention for all
Interject future
Absolution perfected
Potential in plan
Upon earthen man
Physical planes with spirit
Fortune mindfully
Natural gender
Regulated responses
Personal given
Finding happiness
The key to reproduction
A basic need is
Population grows
Morality confusion...
