Poetic Possibilities

My mind is a
whirlwind
exploding with
thpughts
and
expressions.

In the still
of the
night
refrains
haunt
tease me,
tear at my
emotions.

ever
surrounding
my
being
screaming
poetic
possibilities.

Whirlwind

Orbison/dees
Youre the figure of a woman
Youre the mind of a child
A pretty whirlwind
You dont know just what youre doing
When you love me with your smile
A lovely whirlwind
A whirlwind of warm desire
Whirlwind, burning fire woman, realize
That the devil in disguise, is a whirlwind
Born to be running wild and free
Whirlwind
Born to make fools of guys like me
You pick me up like a whirlwind
You put me down like a whirlwind
Each time you touch me Im trouble-bound
Whirl,whirl,whirlwind, whirl,whirl,whirlwind
Whirl,whirl,whirlwind, whirl,whirl,whirlwind

Whirlwind

(ferry/manzanera)
May day
Cut down to size again
What then
When less is more my friend
Ill change
Let me start again
Disguise
Its too weird to explain
Why ill
Always call your name
Adieu; with you
I could be anything
That I want to be
Whirlwind
Wildfire and driving rain
Wheels spin
Bowl me over hurricane
Whirlwind
Crack your cheeks and blow
Me far
So far
How far
Is shangri-la from here
And is it this way?
There she blows
Tear me down tornado
Whirlpool
Drag me to the deeps below
Whirlwind
Will a wildcat strike be tame?
Earthquake
Shake me to my feet again
Its crosswords go you near
A fatal clue I fear
This case is closed
Elementally, my dear.
Beware
Whirlwind

Misfitness

I would not allow you in my space...
If I did not enjoy those expressions,
You create on your face.
With a bit of coy you employ to seduce.

You know you are too young for me.
Why do you tease?
What is it,
You wish me to reveal for you,
To see?

You introduce a misfitness to this.
Knowing our age differences...
Has me a little queasy.
And just a bit uneased.

You introduce a misfitness to this.
Why have you picked me,
To victimize and solicit!

I would not allow you in my space...
If I did not enjoy those expressions,
You create on your face.
With a bit of coy you employ to seduce.

You know you are too young for me.
Why do you tease?
What is it,
You wish me to reveal for you,
To see?

My willingness to strip naked?
With a promise your misfitness once given...
I can not resist and will miss.
After doing what is done on a firm mattress.

I would not allow you in my space...
If I did not enjoy those expressions,
You create on your face.
With a bit of coy you employ to seduce.
Introduced,
With applied misfitness.

Crazy Feelings

It's the poetic expressions,
of unspoken actions,
intensified to mesmerize,
my deepest depths of emotions,
the electrified senses,
signaling the waves,
the waves of love,
disconnecting the network,
of simplicity and misconception,
the chaotic quarels of inner feelings,
persists on internal war,
battling between the heart and the belly,
yet the opponent stood at a distance,
without expression of interest,
whatsoever,
crazy feelingz at boiling point,
i am left to erupt,
an erosion of emotions,
i have no choice but to burst,
this is the results of crazy feelings,
whatever it is,
it isn't love.

Haunt You Everyday

I don't feel the joy
I don't feel the pain
You were just a toy
I am just insane
Walking on my own
Leaving you behind
You are crying out
That you need to speak your mind
[chorus:]
Ohhh
So alone in love
So alone in love
I'm going to haunt you every day
Haunt you every day
I am gonna kill
When I need a thrill
Eating at the heart
Till I've had my fill
When will stupid learn
Fire's gonna burn
Think of consequence
Then you move when it's your turn
[chorus:]
Ohhh
So alone in love
So alone in love
I am going to haunt you every day
Haunt you every day
[guitar solo]
Walking on my own
Leaving you behind
You were crying out
That you need to speak your mind
Ohh so alone in love
So alone at night
I am going Haunt you every day
Haunt you every day

When You Come

When you come across the sea
Me like a beacon guiding you to safety
The sooner the better now
And when you come the hils
Will breathe like a baby
Pulled up heaving from the bottom of the ocean
The sooner the better now
When you come to cover me with your kisses
Fresh like a daisy chained up in a lions den
Ill know you by the thunderclap
Pouring like a rain of blood to my emotions
And that is why
I stumble to my knees
And why underneath the heavens
With the stars burning and exploding
I know I could never let you down
When you come like an iceberg float in darkness
Smashing my hull send me to the bottom of the sea
I should know you better now
When you come your majesty to entrap me
Prince of light receding
The sooner the better now
And when you come to cover me
With your kisses hard like armour
The sooner the better now
Ill know you by the thunderclap
Pouring like a rain of blood to my emotions
And that is why
I stumble to my knees
And why underneath the heavens
With the stars burning and exploding
I know I could never let you down
She came out of the water
Into my horizon
Like a cumulo nimbus
Coming in from a distance
Burning and exploding
Burning and exploding
Like a slow volcano
When you come
Cover the ground with ashes
When you come

Lifted From Descriptive Restrictions

What is this thing called poetry?
Is it depictions...
Of vignettes connected.
Bridged between something said profound.
Recited as a sonnet...
With emotions sat upon it.
Exciting enough to be passed around?

Many try to describe poetry,
With an intellect approach...
Hoping to dull
Diverse interpretations,
With meters, tempo, rhyme
And lines counted!
Learned by rote and blurted.
Regurgitated from memory!

Can true poetry be defined without rhyme?
Can thoughts unconnected but colorized,
And flavored to moisten
Be the choice...
Of those who prefer their poetry moist?
Even though uncomprehending,
The meaning or intention of clues planted.
Seeded by the writer
Delighted to tease with mystery, sex
Or emotional pain aimed at the reader!

Can true poetry be defined,
As heartfelt expressions
Written to describe what then
Is in one's mind.

And who is to say there is a correct way
To reveal what one has to say with or without rhyme.
When those times come to pour a flow
That arrives and awaits the rush.
And thrusting that wish to be expressed as is!

What is this?
That has to find,
Poetic lines.
Requested or not!
When all it wants to do,
Is be delivered for what it is!
Searching for an accepted way...
In a style one owns,
Like none other conveys...
And lifted from descriptive restrictions,
To expand the demands of understanding!

Delivering Those Moments

You must of thought I was a fly by night poet.
Someone who regurgitated aches and pains.
And declared that in some poetic verse.
To flow a tear with anger to disperse.
Bursting with bitterness at the seams.

I like to speak my mind historically.
With a probing into the archives.
To undercover a falsity.
Or perhaps some truth that has been hidden.
Since much of that has been smothered in the past.

Sometimes I like to stir things up.
With innuendos like being black...
In a white coffee cup!
Or sipping tea with leeches who are corrupt.

You must of thought I was a fly by night poet.
Someone who regurgitated aches and pains.
And declared that in some poetic verse.
To flow a tear with anger to disperse.
Or scream from a passion singed in erotic heat!

I can do that if I wished.
But I am not feeling that at this moment.
It is too nice of a day...
To prove I can dazzle with my abilities!
However...
Please do not assume you hide desires,
Of your lust for being teased!
And I...
So enjoy,
Delivering those moments!

Almost Poetic

It's almost poetic
The way you speak
It's almost poetic
The way you think
The way you sleep and dream
It's almost poetic
The way I feel for you
It's almost poetic
The way we argue
It's almost poetic
When we say goodbye
Not knowing the next time
We'll see each other
You are the curved line
And I am the dot
That creates the question mark..
And it's almost poetic
If it were not so pathetic.

Hot Tonight

We dont give a damn what they do for a living
Everywhere we go we party just the same
Getting all my fun
With crazy little girls like you
Playing all your games acting like a fool
Screaming - feel the fire
Screaming - feel the fire - feel it now now now
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
Must be time to go Im feeling hot and sweaty
Find a place to go to make it hardnheavy
Wasting all this time
Would be a silly thing to do
Please dont be a tease now its time me and you
Screaming - feel the fire
Screaming - feel the fire - feel it now now now
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight
Screaming - feel the fire
Screaming - feel the fire - feel it now now now
cause we are hot tonight - hot tonight.......

Whatever I Am

Whatever I am, whatever I can be
Without you by my side, I’m as empty as can be.
You opened up my mind to so many possibilities
That now my heart is like a star, shooting across eternity.
Whatever I am, I owe it all to you
For you showed me how to love
And to let my emotions rise
But as long as I have you next to me
I know I can survive.

Red Hot Screaming Love

I cant even begin to tell you
How Ive been feelin lately
But I have stumbled across something rare
And you use it to bait me
Something tells me go
Everyone says no, no, no
How can they be so cruel
When they tell me dont touch you
I tell them Ill die
In your red hot screaming love
In your red hot screaming love
If Im losing my senses
Theyre lost in your deepest emotions
And the jets in my heart
They wont start till you set them in motion
Something tells me go
Everyone says no, no, no
How can they be so cruel
When they tell me dont touch you
I tell them Ill die
In your red hot screaming love
In your red hot screaming love

Poeticating What a Poeticator 'Do

Blank is my mind like a canvas.
Not filled with disarray or confused with thoughts.
A melody may come into mind.
Finding an image!
And thinking of a time...
To begin a poetic line,
That may or may not rhyme.
As a mental search begins,
Defining an image.
Before surrounding that with meaning.
Something accessible.
Lean!
And has comprehension in it that screams.
Bites!
Then frame it with...
A title meant for it!
That's the task of one who 'poeticates'.
In creative ways...
That uses the reader as baited prey!

'Poeticates? Po-et-o-cates, okay?
One who is in the process of preparing,
A poetic verse to be spoken publicly! '

If it sounds good,
Make your own stuff up!
That's all it is anyway!
Finding something that connects.
And reflects with anticipation.
Not to be confused with po' etiquette!
And depending on the nature of the 'piece'...
That too is invited!
Poeticating what a poeticator 'do' when done!

A Pen Gone Dry

Barren fields…empty places
Mind devoid of idea and rhyme
Sterile imagination…featureless faces
Webs in memories, frozen in time

Fingers flaccid, mind unwilling
Heavy lies this heart of mine
Creative forces not fulfilling
Empty flask of poetic wine

Dried up source of poetic spring
Used up store of poetic phrases
Emptied purse with untied string
Like worn out shoes and old frayed laces

Time away… might grow the field
Time away… might fill the empty places
Perhaps time will let the emptiness yield
To imagination…and full featured faces

Now...inkwell empty
Tear in eye
Pristine paper
Pen... gone dry...

The Body Gets Septic

Emotions are bodily expressions
To stimuli in any situation.
Expressed, feelings will go out cleaning.
Suppressed, feelings will get stuck soiling.

Laugh when you want to; cry when you want to.
Be lavish to praise; be scarce in abuse.
Channelize anger with prayer or curses.
Emotions blocked, the body gets septic.

Theres A Tear In My Beer

1:
Theres a tear in my beer
cause Im cryin for you,
Dear you are on my lonely mind.
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears.
You are on my lonely mind
Im gonna keep on sittin here
Until Im petriified.
And then maybe these tears
Will leave my eyes.
Theres a tear in my beer
cause Im crying for you, dear
You are on my lonely mind.
2:
Last night I walked the floor
And the night before
You are on my lonely mind.
It seems my life is through
And Im so doggone blue
You are on my lonely mind.
Im gonna keep on sittin here
Till I cant move a toe
And then maybe my heart
Wont hurt me so.
Theres a tear in my beer
cause Im cryin for you, dear.
You are on my lonely mind.
3
Lord, Ive tried and Ive tried
But my tears I cant hide
You are (were? ) on my lonely mind.
All these blues that Ive found
Have really got me down
You are on my lonely mind
Im gonna keep on drinkin till I cant even think
Cause in the last week I aint slept a wink
Theres a tear in my beer
Cause Im crying for you dear
You are on my lonely mind.

Riptide

Shes out of her mind
Like the wind in the storm
Oh, like the ocean in the dawn
As it disappears, with the riptide
Shes out of her mind
Shes pulled away by the moon
Shes ripped from her sleep
As the cold luna sweep gains control
Ooohhh, what you gonna do with your emotions
Ah, ones you barely recognize
In your sleep I heard your screaming, ooohhh
This is not voluntary! this is not voluntary!
If this is life Id rather die!
In the riptide, in the riptide
Shes out of her mind, riptide
Like a muscle that swells
You know when you trip
Whether youre well or sick, your body aches
Shes out with the tide
Gone to a prisoners dance
Where a monkeys her date
Eating limbs off a plate with a spoon
Ooohhh, what you gonna do with your emotions
Said the seagull to the loon
What you gonna do with your emotions
She said please wake me up
She said dont touch me now
She said I wish I was dead
With the riptide
Shes out of her mind
Riptide, you always win
It happens over and over again
Riptide
Shes out of her mind
Like a hurricanes rain
She does not stand a chance
At this luna dance, riptide
I was thinking of van goghs last painting
The wheatfields and the crows
Is that perhaps what youve been feeling
When you see the ground
As you fall from the shy
As the floors disappears from beneath your feet riptide
Shes going out of her mind
Out with the tide
Out of her mind
Riptide
Shes going out of her mind
With the riptide
Shes going out of her mind
Ah, riptide

Vehement Lady

Control of ones emotions
How, when there is no potion

there is also no books on parenting
But they manage

Laws come out of experience...or Lack of.

Emotions one step above
pulling at you everywhichaway
With emotions you pray

Buy a pair of shoes, a coat.
Hidden emotions make you float
Sink, depending on how you think

Being loose, some say, it helps
Brings (Anna Lucasta) to mind

An emotional woman of her time
Black, beautiful, strong and emotionally free

Loved at an instance
Smooth as a feline

Ecstatic joy she shared was fine
Showing expressions of goodness
Without truly lying

Secretly being ambushed
From the whole family

Who pretend to be so kind
married and loved all for the first time

Keen-sighted and never saw...the crime

In love or just another...
Jezebel, Delilah, or Jade.

Another face in the parade.

A few blocks and it fades right into the crowd.

Bing! Boom! Pow!

None knew her anyhow

I See Monsters

Baby, I know you cannot hear me now
'Cause you're fast asleep
But I love you now
Colors inside your head go spinning around
Like a ferris wheel
Exploding and falling to the ground
Oh, people are screaming, people are screaming
My baby, she's dreaming
Oh, people are shouting, people are freaking
I'm just staring at the ceiling
Waiting for the feeling
Oh, oh but when she calls,
I know she's the one
Makes me want her harder
Makes me want to be a little stronger
Still I see monsters
Still I see monsters
Baby, I know you cannot hear me now
'Cause you're flying around
At the speed of sound
Colors inside your head go spinning around
Like a ferris wheel
Exploding and falling to the ground
Oh, people are screaming, people are screaming
My babies, she's dreaming
Oh, people are shouting, people are freaking
I'm just staring at the ceiling
Waiting for the feeling
Oh, oh when she calls
I know that she's the one
Makes me want it harder
Makes me want to be a little stronger
Still I see the monsters
Still I see the monsters
