I went to Vortex and Vortex is a whole 'nother story.

Vortex
Can you tell me why
Things are not quite right
Look out
This is not fiction
Somehow I'm changing
Watch out
I'm all alone
Out of control
Revolving motion
Wild revolution
Beware
I am paralyzed
Nearly hypnotized
Get out
I'm all alone
Out of control
I've lost my soul
In Vortex zone
What is going on
Everything is wrong
Want out
Is there a way out
Safer whereabouts
Wipe out
I'm all alone
Out of control
I've lost my soul
In Vortex zone
I'm all alone

What We Should Have Forgotten
there is a spider
in the vortex of
my mind
it dwells there
and every
day and every night
it is weaving
from its mouth
its food
its choice of words
a house
of poems
a kingdom
of images
where i shall live
where you shall
read
where you can become
another
figment of
some imaginations
there is another spider
in the vortex of your
mind
that weaves that hunger
that thirst
that longing
that feeling of imperfection
its moving
like a pendulum
it is revolving like a planet
to an eternal
circumlocution
these are the spiders in our
minds
that make us
all
human
always missing something
always remembering
what we should have forgotten.

Vortex
Internal combustion
Multiple personalities
Terror inside of me
A mask of silent agony
Curse the falling rain
The vortex of pain
As medieval as merlin
A pact for power was made
Lucifer in transition
Its time the price was paid
Searching the domain
The vortex of pain
A telestic message
Writtin in torment
Howl out dirges
Like the horns of jericho
Distorted faces
Writhing in rage
Walls of purgatory
Tumble down
Endless death
The jewls of a crown

Kentucky Derby
(for Smarty Jones)
horse-naked
a barn sleeper
he can swim in the sun, in a barn
he loafs in an apple yard,
snapping the pea grass
as blossoms inhale and exhale kentucky spring
his friend the goat is
patiently
trimming the grass beneath
today is saturday
steel strips are winged to his toes
tiny shields
he can carry a man running
his tail is a whisper trail
in sharp silk clothing
a fearless man holds on
still cropping the slender useless whip
a man and a race-horse in a jagged steady burst
pushing through the vortex
is this the vortex of horse speed?
a horse in a puff
in a dreamscape a puff
can he see the dawn coming?
he's fast!
on his toes and
he's passed us!

The image is more than an idea. It is a vortex or cluster of fused ideas and is endowed with energy.

The atom, being for all practical purposes the stable unit of the physical plane, is a constantly changing vortex of reactions.
Life has become terribly insecure. It's on the vortex of civil war. It's difficult to know how America will bring it back from the brink and build up good will.

Wind The Pregnant Sky
wind the pregnant sky
like old clocks rescued by a magic mechanism of time
for the future it's got to eat
vortex pages history lame
walking through the gusts of wind
forgotten names spelled upon the moonbean
say them aloud
in fingertips breathprints
in eyes closing down
and to a beheaded lion rising
to pronounce again his own death
a baby griffin groaning at his paws
'I am the new desert of those sworn
on ashes for us to find the sandclock
you may tick me off tick me off
still the death I'll guard
tenderly like a mother lap and kiss
soulfully like a wound below the heart
know not the depth the secret and the claws
that ruin this mighty shrine
for sacred I am sacred i will die.'
wind the pregnant sky
there's a life to be delivered in pain
swallowed by muteness of an ancestral choke
cherish the foods for the future it's got to eat
vortex pages history lame
through the walk of sandy hours
the dinas and dust to the desert prey
bow to a bird bless her flight above
sunslides of the sky it will survive
to be your first epitome of light

Organ
The smell of your
Organ is so strong
My love,
It captivates me
From miles away
Across the lands,
Seas and oceans
Of wild fantasies
And swirls me
Into a vortex of
Fatal attraction
I would love to
Die for…!

When faced with the inevitable fatigue that comes with the recycling of speeches and the recycling of thoughts in a rather small stream of vortex, I am urged to not be ashamed of recycling.

From the Docile Side of Life!
Sucked into an imploding vortex?
If that is what one chooses to accept...
Why take steps...
To follow as expected?
Be a rebel!
Be a maverick!
Be decidedly inventive.
And escape,
From the docile side of life!
So entertained,
And influenced...
By those distant!
Easily managed.
And

The Destined
Duress and lies,
Both I despise,
Caused by this redheaded girl.
She tore my heart apart,
Right from the start,
Within the black vortex swirl.
Thought of death, self inflicted,
I nearly did trip it,
Due to this demonic spell.
Now i just hate,
Sympathy comes too late,
For I now hope she burns in Hell.

Parallel Webs
Parallels irresistibly singular
shielding incarnate minds
journeying on voyages
across through medium time.
Vortex perishing
flesh embodiment enfolds encases
pilgrims magnetically trapped
in drama deifying living lives.

Vortex
Spinning.
Choosing to free myself.
Lose my appetite to fight,
As a birthright...
That excite ambitions to battle.
Whether they are depicted
To be wrong or right.
There is a complex series,
Of a vortex set and spinning within!
I want them to spin rapidly without end!
To claim enchantment as my enhancement...
As each day begins!

Glance Down
and see how new grass
lifts green glory
to absolute blue.
Look how swarming gnats
dash in passion,
vortex of life,
swirling whirlpool
in liquid light.
The jay waits
on shadowed fence,
as jeweled hummingbirds
float
in a sea of roses,
nectar drunk,
May-mad.

Blue Horizon (Love Poem)
Woke up this morning feeling empty,
Faster than fire, slower than standing,
So far from home on this endless road.
Blue horizon slices this workday dawn,
Vapour vortex trails my hellish journey,
Living in very long seconds on this plane.
Hours to go before I sleep with you again.

Armless Enemies
In your domain
walking with men of straw
to immolate myself.
If power was sacred
why you did not stop
the reversing of gender role?
Oh, there was water on Mars
streaking like the tears
on your face.
The apes were coming.
There was elation and suspicion.
The vortex of existence needs surgery.
Unlikeness calls for
introspection. I am asking
god to pray for me.

Continuum
My breath rises
to the edge of space
and pauses
at the nexus of perfection,
then falls,
driven by waves of fire,
by strong hands guided
through dust and rain,
through ice, through
the shining
vortex
to my upturned face
where a single dropp dies
and fills me with
the storm's desire.

Mother
Is becoming
A mother,
Selfish or
Selfless?
Selflessness
Is the way
In which
You serve
Your child.
Duty comes
First. Served
With love.
Selfishness
Is when you
Want to have
The pleasure
Of becoming
A mother,
Despite knowing
That this world is
Full of suffering,
Yet you want
To usher in…
Another human
Being who also
Gets trapped -
In this vortex of
Diurnal living…

Pyramid
an alien tower
left by arcane builders
who command visceral gods
must first be mastered.
seven slow steps
to peak at crown,
steel spine
ascended,
illumination all around,
levity too,
but contraction
of human
gravity too great
quick descent
on spiral vortex
soon impels
