Defiance

Defiance

A brief blast of breeze
Crushes clay to dust
Daring Death to
Extend ennui
Forever

Love conquers all

vincit ominia veritas

Love shall set you free

veritas leberabit vos

….

diligo in ventate, set ad vincere capta corda

 Love in Truth, Conquer to set captive hearts free

Complacency

Complacency

The visual evidence does not lie
There is no weeping and wailing
Perhaps there may be heaving of sighs

Don’t come to me later with hands wringing
Bemoaning what would or could have been
Most trouble is tricky and cloyingly clinging

Solutions come quickly when you open your eyes
Time is rapidly passing
Maintaining illusions might win the prize

But lies come home a-winging
The row is hard to hoe
It often sets heads to ringing

Life

Life
Pretentious words with portentous meanings
Hurled through space
Repudiating what you hold dear
Stagnant vision clouds laggard minds
Invoking base responses that emolliate and percolate
Superior intellect forces quiet and calm
Emotional involvement would only concede the point
Conclusion comes with introspection over time
Modulation might be imperative
Necessity knows no measure

Struggle

Struggle
She walks on haughty airs that give us pause
Flesh and bone run though us all
And base desire is a worthy cause
For pride goeth before the fall
The time has come to gather up flowers
And watch for stars are falling
Comets have come to grander towers
The results can be appalling
The ocean cannot meet the sky
Though forever they are striving
For one must surely fall and die
While the other is uprising

Christmas Music In Other Words…

My Dad was an English teacher for nigh unto 35 years. He used to use many tricks to try the class involved and attentive. One that he pulled out around this time of year was a quiz called “Are our Auditory Perceptions Similar?” He would have a list of phrases and then the students would have to “translate” them.  Sounds similar in a lot of ways to hashtag wars to me! If I was using it like that I would call it #Christmasmusicinotherwords The first one BTW is “Do you hear what I hear?”
Are Our Auditory Perceptions Similar?
Cobalt Noel
Unto Others A Joyous Yuletide Aspiration
Bring Forth the Frozen Precipitation
Hail Petite Hamlet on the West Bank

Apart

Apart

I tried to fall in love today
And went to give my heart away
But I found a note that read
You stole my heart I’ve taken yours in stead
I thought about it long and hard
Who could be such a callow card?
To take my heart with nary a word?
Not even by a look inferred
Only one name came to mind
The tangled knot, it did unwind
I followed the path where it did lead
To retrieve my heart with utmost speed
But when I reached to bring it back
You grabbed my hand for a change of tack
We fell in to soulful bliss
As we slowly began to kiss
Now I know I have no heart
It has always been apart
With my love it will stay
Until the night becomes the day

Cento Three: I Don't Know How to Love Him...

I would walk 500 miles
Hide your love away
I’ll give you shelter from the storm
I’ll do anything
Just to be where you are
When the time is right
Call me
No matter what
I’ll be there
I’ll be waiting
Fool that I am

Bubble

Bubble
Frozen moments in time
Reach liquid form combusting
They explode into the present
With scents and senses reeling
A thread is ripped from time and space
It pulls the pattern out of weave
The slightest breeze untangles it all
And forces us to believe
In higher powers that control our lives
In fates and presence foreboding
To doubt is to no longer be alive
The past is fast eroding
