There's no new water on earth it's all been recycled
That thought just came to me in a flash, my mind did spiral
It's mind-blowing
It's thought-provoking
Makes me think about all the whale poop quite vile...

Music
the staple of life
Hence my poetic
Song
Parted lips
A spoken voice
Comes 
The inner me 
Nostalgic
Evoking
Thought-provoking
Penetrating reflections
In love 
Dancing 
singing
Lifes

From 
Dusk 
Till..

Smoke until my eyes burn
Unforeseen circumstances occur 
Forget to eat forget to sleep 
Remind my heart to beat 
Magical flaws in fountains 
Rules of strength flaunted 
Breathtakingly steep, so steep
Conjuring colorful plumes 
Thought-provoking imagery 
How can I create it 
Yet I cannot feel a thing 
Is there a tangible difference

If you're sad 
Eat something delicious
You may not smile right away
At least your belly is full
You may wander many thought provoking
Thinking of what happen to your life
Just drink something cool and sweet
At least you find something fulfilling
I know you're still emotional a bit
Or you're still hungry then
At least you can't be sad anymore....

Haiku - a thought provoking bunch!

Alone - yet a continuum...!

In this universe,
alone - yet a continuum,
woven - warp and weft!

Mind always rakes up,
our ego that awaits, takes-up,
blatant differences!

No thing and nothing,
ever in isolation, connect,
with all - resurrect!

Find that in you - where,
oneness from deep within surge,
ahead - where all merge!...

Poetry ain't words dribbled out on the fly, 
It's execution, prostitution of the me who am I.
lettin loose my mongoose of thought provoking, while others be chokin,
gettin all Seuss you just some cat in a hat, 
Philosophies of Socrates rap your brain around dat,
Don't let dem big words confuse you, this all precludes you, from being 100, thats where you blundered.

You don’t like love.
You love it,
Don’t you?
Always have,
Always will.
Necessity is the mother of all creation.
But what about the Father? 
In due time you will see,
You will all see.
Father, Mother.
Sister, Brother.
We are all adopted.
One another.
Even though your tears are real,
You know what is owed.
You know the deal
Multiply.
You don’t like love.
You love it...

How too choose, how to select
A film to fill that two hour slot
The bumph will big it up 
Over egg the pudding like as not
So I look for key word like
“Thought provoking” or “moody”
“Poignant, “Critically acclaimed”
Or “Stunning cinematography”
And when I’ve identified them
I know they are the ones to miss 
And I get the one with the cover picture
Of a girl in a state of undress...

Steal a moment of leisure
Make a comfortable old style
Only willing to be a good looker
Long lasting wind and moon
Hoping sunrise to shine all day
Resting sunset bring good fortune
Today may a good breath release
Tomorrow our hope will trust life
Future lies in the horizon beacon
All our ambitions are innovation
Of thought provoking mind-boggling
Sigh of sights all shines in the heart....

Hey wet river.
Hello dry bones.
Feel the rhythm?
Hear the tones? 
Wet, wet,
The river gives.
Wet, wet,
The river takes.
Walk along the brooks and streams,
Run along the ponds and lakes.
Close my eyes,
I hear no more.
I will exhaust,
I will explore.
Through the forest,
I run, I run.
Fear for when
My time is done.
Kick up your feet,
Enjoy the shows.
This is where the
Rabbit goes....

“Outside Voice”


Silence aint Golden, it’s not what you think

My voice on hold, no freedom to speak

That’s thought provoking, can’t say what I feel

A mind boggling experience, it’s time to reveal

I can no longer sit idle; there are things to be said

You must hear me, these words in my head

There were choices to make, and you left me no choice

To say what is real, in my outside voice....

I can tell the resemblance
By the sure chance
Of one glance
Of things sane and those of trance

A thought provoking thought pains
When self evaluation unravels our own stains
But obscure will be its gains
If we choose that which entertains

"Life is a big game" they keep saying
They add "It's never that serious" for a meaning
Life being a game is worth agreeing
But a true player should be serious about winning!...

Poetry a divine form
A specialised art known to few
Taking the world by storm
A few lines that into a stanza grew
The poet his life blood poured
Onto the pages of experience
The pen mightier than the sword
Was shown by brilliance
The deep thought provoking poetry
Or the funny and humourous lyrics
Are felt all through history
Whether sonnet, rhyme or acrostics
The genre of poetry for eternity
Is blessed with dignity...

Would an inter-dimensional
Time sphere capture all the
Details needed to transform
A mere thought-provoking
Image into a mind splitting
Reality? We can see in front
Of our eyes the two plus two
Of it all, but what when the
Solution no longer fits the 
Problem and creating water
Out of wine is not just for the
Divine? I can accept what I cannot
See, but not what I cannot feel,
Owing all I have to the skeletons
In my closet....

Awareness is everything 
But, we must be willing to open our eyes
For they do not see everything 
Moments often catch us by surprise 
The unpredictability of life 
Often puts us in this position 
So thought provoking 
Nothing but an inquisition 
The fickleness of life 
Often takes our breath away 
Confusion and frustration 
Makes its appearance each day 
When we lack awareness 
It can lead to total chaos 
Filled with bewilderment 
Some of us may appear to be lost...

Oh! What happened to my muse?
       Taking a nap, no use.
Nothing comes up in my mind, its blank.
     Fed up, feeling like a manque.
What is there to write now?
        I really don't know
Should I write about the stars above?
       or about the dog's love?
With mind full of chaos, I opened
     this site, thought provoking 
Messages, nice people,inspirational poems
   uplifting writes and peerless poets
 Made my day; I feel relaxed, inspired
       loved and admired...
