falling
one feather at a time
raven black quills
swept from full wings.
if it's for mass they're amassing,
this demon wont disappoint.
dagger in hand, 
the damage is done
but what is can always be un-...

Just by amassing 

a plethora of material goods in life 

without tending his spiritual needs

one 

can never succeed in enriching his 

soul !

This secluded epoch proceeds exceedingly.
This requisite delay, daily trudgery.
Amassing scores of lonely sunrises.
My reclusive heart concealed
willingly abandoned; neglected desire
awaiting my fate, a reunion
the one I long for....

Egotism 
is far from altruism,  
it's sustained by a glory so vain and fragile; 
amassing wealth as the impulsive imbecile... 
shunning a guilt so perceptible. 
Their riches were to be shared by many: 
to prosper, love and pray 
trustfully....

All of Our Bills

All our bills are quickly amassing;
Deep into debt us this is casting;
Down misery's path will be lead;
Spent and wasted money instead;
Grim picture on us God was casting.

rich, 
                opulence, prosperous
    acquiring, amassing, accumulating 
affluence, luxury, insolvency, pauperism 
      squandering, depleting, repriving 
                    destitute, poverty
                               poor

Unknown to us are what we see, 
Each day brings a door before us,
To unlock, with its unique key,
Unknown to us are what we see,
We face It headlong or we flee,
Amassing the superfluous,
Unknown to us are what we see,
Each day brings a door before us.

Uninteraptently,
In God's mines of:
Love, 
Compassion, and 
Virtue, he,  
Diligently, worked all lifelong
Thus
Incalculable riches, his soul
Succeeded in amassing 
That 
Lasted for his entire journey on earth, 
And that of heaven!

Parallax Past

I am alone
For sure, for now
Almost as ever was
Never again

I have me
I am field and plow
Always as it is, because
I am, again

Around once more
Parallax past
Of all, amassing
Wondering if all these years, too slow
Are after all, too fast
Trying not to lose myself
In passing...

The corrupt officer
amassing wealth vast and grand
after retirement seeking fame,
the title of social reformer,
and patriot,
noble names.
Purchasing his pride
wearing philanthropy's mask.
Donations made with tainted lies.
But beneath the surface
of the grand charity
the trust he betrayed.
Such people abound
in our backward land.

rags
                        grimy, sodden,
            frustrating, frazzling, hording,
 tatter, wretchedness, opulences, luxuries,
          cha-chinging, amassing, owing, 
                    abundant, affluent, 
                               riches

From my component perspective
in the stewing pious chatter
does freedom of truth reflective
alter all forces that matter
without loving the reflection
while stumbling up the ladder
since we all share this collection,
ills shaking us until madder,
raging at injustice of will
amassing with that sweaty fist
any method that makes us kill
our sovereign duty to resist....

Splashes levels drains cerulean aquifer
Azure axioms encapsulation in crystalline shimmer
Ping tumultuous sapphire in a thunderously storm
Lightning in sand castle amassing the goblet
Chalice of oasis with a puff of condensation
Rivulets fuse in mass of mercury river
Flows in forks down cheeks to waterfall
Ripple on the petal of a black rose
To bend and lachrymose below...

Planning your demise is like 
walking on a tight rope    
realising there's no net
challenging a 
speeding car and
daring it to stop
mortgaging your manhood
amassing liabilities with no program of repayment
leaping to the wrong conclusions
leaning toward self-delusions
indulging in the same old self-
defeating speculations
endorsing self-destruction 
till you're finally out of time....

Planning your demise is like

Wish I had half a brain 
Bricks to fill the void in my head 
Wrinkled and stained 
Intelligence is but a soul beheaded

Big words were never an attribute 
Amassing descriptions to loneliness 
Why can't we just call it solitude 
Synonyms alongside this dark fortress 

Half wits aren't so bad 
Rest assured your worries diminish
Analysis a loyal companion 
To every syllable I intend to finish...

Molten gold drips into ebony seas, 
wafting wisps of splendor onto the night.

Water and light collide, gilding golden
swirls of vapors in a star-studded sky.

A melding of two heavenly bodies;
deftly orchestrated by time and space.

As Luna slips into Gaia's waters,
She sinks as softly as a gentle sigh.

An amassing optical illusion,
whereas a liquid Earth and Moon embrace....

I sat, as if a bud on a tree,
amassing knowledge while contemplating change.
Waiting for a ship that might never sail.
Waiting on tomorrow, which would never come.
Staring with glaring, glinting eyes
for that one man who could make a difference.
From natures shaded pool,
I found such a man
peering from within the blue abyss.
Strange, I thought,
this resemblance of myself,
for he too sat as if a bud on a tree....

Who controls our banking?
Ruinous fees for money lending.
Who questions their investing?
Why so dear for money lending?
Who does profit from accounting?
Our finances they're controlling,
While our economy they're ruining,
They're amassing fortunes pecuniary,
Big business for them, commercially.
Let's questions their accountability
For our faceless Australian economy,
Profits overseas they're sending---
So much for Australian banking!!!!!!...

To understand is Vladimir
That he might lives mar 
And when it gets to shooting 
I shall be shouting “Putin!”

Tactlessly commencing a conflict 
That would injuries inflict 
And as tactlessly amassing a train 
Of soldiers who are dead to pain.

Wonderful is The Brain: 
A time to use it by Ukraine;
Where’s the Canaan in Crimea 
That to other land makes it creamier? 

At the door John F. Kennedy knocks, 
When negotiation another blocks....

almost touched.
hearts that brushed 
in passing.

lasted looks
with drops of rain
amassing.

memories  enhanced
twigs of despair 
grown to passion branched

cab, puddle, heel, ankle

eyelashes lost
in looks that were tossed

his way.
this day,

started differently.

heartbeats separated 
by oceans of city ships

all yellow 

lost, in seas 
of soulful pain,

but two brushed hearts
in passing, kissed

in the mid-town 
summer rain...

Chinook winds whisper softly
as lover's breath in spring
promises of wanton lust
desires of passion bring.

Summer winds brush rosy cheeks,
his hands smooth tousled hair.
Rapturous murmurs in the night-
her perfume lingers there.

Autumn winds blow dry leaves
fulfilling nature's need,
amassing beds on forest floor,
accepting fruitful seed.

But beware, the winds of winter
blow harsh and bitter cold,
tearing at the heart and soul
as countless tears unfold....
