CONUNDRUM

Emotions free-falling, cascade;

Heart's vascular wall's, barricade.

The haunted spirit, still unbound;

A Soul not lost, yet isn't found.

Touched by others, but never held;

Dreams un-ironed within it's weld.

Nightmares born from a spirit, broken;

A saviour voice of reason, spoken.

Festered fears upon playground's bed;

Sleepless dream's now burning, instead.

Leaps of faith from unknown hope;

Subconscious daydream's skipping rope.

Bookcased memoirs in libraries essentia;

Cloaked mirrors refrain the biggest adventure.

Spined leaves in jackets, encased by back pages;

Existence freed of judged jury's cages.

FOLIE À DEUX

Mosaic beauty upon a canvased mind -

Abstracts' thought of two;

Spiritually carving an essence defined -

Sculpture's alluring view.

Model charisma, transcendent panoramics -

Chiseled utopia, kissed;

Shapes sexing and molding, sealing ceramics -

Tracing mystiques', blissed.

Embossed lines erect, curves aligning -

Signature beings, weld;

Engraving couplet, trademark entwining -

Crowning bijou, held.

Marbled terra cotta knows statues' Arcadia -

Concrete and clay conceive;

Porcelain angel now lives in Fantasia -

All set in stone make believe.

HYSTERIA

Worldwide scum-

What have we become?

Teaching the preacher

Reaching pandemic aims,

Cause the under-handed epidemic.

Colour confused-

By the psychotic over-sight.

Patriotic, not, fuse the hue of war-

Gun toted,

At any which way you voted.

In a no-rule world;

The martyr is promoted-

In the death of an unworthy suicide.

Here's the deal-

Colour is lost on a monochrome drone;

Fixing to kill-

At any cost.

Shuffle the deck

Of self respect,

Annihilated by the dealer, disrespecting-

For how can you disprove lies already stamped with an official seal?

PASSING SHIPS

Pawn star psyche, taped

Sordid reel, the lie within

Bitter taste, rancid

First meets blissed, core bursts

Spirits' secrets divulging

Sensual beginnings

Mind makes love to soul

Unzipped thoughts, buttons relate

The closeness, enthralls

Carnal abandon

Kissed clitoris mind blow, fucked

Ebb and flow inserts

Duvet exposure

Spooning seven's spider web

Loving releases

Memoirs fast forward

prerecorded broadcast, ripped

Paused lovers' ending

Impaired fragments, cleaved

Outside in's confidant, gone

Inside out, gut wrenched

Boulevard dreams, broke

Existence seen, unheld heart

Realms magnet, undrawn

Scanned hurts unstopping

Journal's visual rewinding

Woman's life played, thee
