Some Acrostics In Triplets
21 Ago
Ancestors once aspired
'Guided humanity guarded'
Other way but all turned
22 Bad
Bothersome are some
Annoying all and some
Detestably loathsome
23 Bee
Bubbling brilliance buzzing
Exserting nectarean searching
Enjoying virtuous storing
24 Cry
Cowardly heart crackles
Rashly emotion rushes
Yowling sorrow gushes
25 Bet
Bravery is challenging
Eagerness is playing
Tasting is testing

Brave Sword
By bravery we subdue the brilliance
Of an enemy with a sling;
O the enchantment that bravery brings,
Promises are made on the mast.
Concerns creep to wander with lust,
Bravery derides the normal quest.
That it is from the strength of the heart.
The strong heart must be brave and gallant,
Like Fancy itself, the real pleasures that await.
Love and bravery are doubled when struck
By the sword, steel in its grip and material.

Fog, Yet Another Point Of View
Fog, Yet Another Point Of View
Near Fisherman’s Wharf, quite late at night
Tendrils of music and mist mix together
Slim young ladies and slender young men
Street musicians, with grand aspirations
Dressed a bit tattered, on lonely street corners
Used as impromptu stages
While fingers of fog probe…searching tentatively…
Testing and tasting
Self-written songs ghost into the night
Tremulous voices, hopefully singing
Few people stop, even less truly listen
Some dropping change in foam cups at their sides
All the while fog sniffs like dogs, at ankles and feet
Touching, licking, testing and tasting
Too young to truly know of their songs deep emotions
Thinking they’ve suffered already most sorrows
More mist now…then music, swirling together
Grey miasma pulling shroud over sound and
The fog slowly thickens,
like pudding congealing
Rising up, bubbling
groping and grasping. Testing and tasting
Some on their corners, in the fog, stay too long
Feral fog surrounds them and bodies dissolve
Then slowly resolve, as if undecided
whether to stay or become haze
Fog softens their sad songs, seems to pull them away
Absorbing them in it’s tentacles
Sucking and pulling, testing and tasting
Grey billows pull capes to their eyes and slink back unwillingly
To the bay as the sun slowly rises
Slowly, so slowly, as if draggiing resistant, reluctant, victims
Wrapped within it’s folds and furls
While appearing still to be
Groping and fondling, testing and tasting
The fogs final retreat, the last vestiges dissipating
Revealing hand-written, hopeful, scattered, sheet music
Strewn on a few empty corners
A few melancholy musicians less tonight
No one will miss them
The fog has found them to it’s liking
has tested and tasted…and taken

The meaning of this observation is unclear, but it raises the unfortunate possibility of ambiguous triplets; that is, triplets which may code more than one amino acid. However one would certainly expect such triplets to be in a minority.

Black Bruises IV
I can gorge the vile blackness,
the eviscerated acquiescence
like a dog-eats-dog carnival
I can endure the struggle
tasting blotted inks,
tasting cheap champagnes,
tasting one's molting skin,
tasting a chance to begin,
tasting cold greasy dishes,
tasting stark carnal sin,
tasting tar and nicotine,
tasting saline misery,
but am I the only one tasting
these black bruised savors?

Searching For Soul
SEARCHING THE SOUL
Searching the soul strumming the guitar's sullen strings
Making music to resonate the sorrow of the moment
Roaming on the fret with fingers showing the feelings
Trying to blend the tears of grieving heart's sentiment
Searching the soul for the reasons of the event
Hoping to find the answers for what it meant
Searching the soul to find a way to repent
Trying to forget the bitter past of torment
Searching the soul for love of life that slipped away
Helpless victim of the fate of cruelty of the time
Playing the sad tunes with emotions that is in disarray
Crying in silence while playing the guitar twine

Meaning Of Fidelity
Fidelity is filled with eagerness and passion,
Fidelity is deeper than any emotion,
Fidelity is full of trust and compassion,
And is filled with a keen devotion.
Fidelity is filled with eagerness and passion,
Fidelity is a state of faithfulness from the heart,
Fidelity is an adherence to a special cause
And its' sworn vows will never part.
Fidelity is filled with eagerness and passion,
Fidelity is an allegiance bound to stand,
Fidelity is part of a Nation's domain,
And is steadfast throughout the land.
Fidelity is filled with eagerness and passion,
Fidelity is full of piety and ultimate care,
Fidelity is filled with an intense sense of duty,
And is like soothing music in the air.

Ambition's hopeful flight
Yearning cheery insight

Done well are some dos
Undone some for truce
Earn be paid ere close

Only be immersed cited
Timely deed ever pointed

Yet the heart bows assayed
Ensured colour enlivened

All-pervading element
Instantaneous supplement
Repetitively constant
32 All
Apprehended everything
Let go of bad thing
Lining up good thing
33 And
Added be who else
Noted be what else
Doable be what else
34 Any
And you desire
None a barrier
Yes, but inspire
35 Bag
Better hold up wisdom
All saved by freedom
Greatly used seldom

World Prayer
Before disappointments, suffering and sorrow
May we be strong in faith
And generous in love.
Let us sing the chant 'Magnificat'
Exalting the Lord
In joy and sorrow.
May the justice and peace between people(s)
Be in the world a reality
To bless Humanity.
Let our heart
Be guided by God
Towards the path of peace,
Sharing and fraternity,
So as to reach Hope
And Love
In Truth.

In Search Of Starlit Love
The dream was a siren, calling from depths
of memory, a lifetime’s sighing was the quest.
The reality was greater than exalted hope
ever aspired to. In time of youth, alone
was I denied soul’s companion, whose shadow
not even could I see. Though in all things
all places did feel I her love for me.
Pain of aloneness
all the more I felt in want
of finding her, for
impenetrable were mists cast
in bonds, of time
distance which lay between us.
First there was
an entire world.
Multitudes of women
in many worlds.
Millions billions
without number.
Sifting sands
in searching circles
the billions.
Became millions
but still found
not the one.
To the ends
of the earth I would go
without sustaining hope
on heart’s journey.
And then.
To be found there.
One.
Like countless lifetimes
spent I looking for thee.
Coming to you was like
climbing. To the sun.
Your soul has walked
with me in belief best
in all worrying ways.
Alone I was bereaved lost.
Never sought I to win
a maiden’s heart
with honeyed words,
unless I could
gild them
in some measure,
with a cloak
of true love
edged with purity,
of the finest
my soul
could muster.
For never will I defile
that tenderest of hearts.
With empty hallow hailings
in guise of sweet speech.
May true love’s fair guardian
pour bubbling acid
into my mouth to devour
loathsome flesh.
If steeped in
deceitful betrayal...
Of what worth
is token offering
when only
the most righteous
could honour you?

People have always found me challenging - I don't know why, when I am only being myself. I don't understand why they find me so annoying but they do. It is pity, but that is how it is.

Guarded from sexual pleasure
My parents, uncles and aunts guarded me,
My brothers, sisters and cousins guarded me,
My husband and his members guarded me,
My colleagues and neigbours guarded me
And my children, nephews and nieces guarded me
Against my pleasure that men could give me.
