Stark (5,3,1 structure for Gulsher: -)
All matter that existence here
constructed of quark?
Stark
Everything you need for life
Fits one arc?

A misty graveyard with only
Song of Lark

Raving madness that takes hold
Makes you bark

Cutting bluntness of succinct remark
Stalks like shark

Depth Of A Woman
there is depth in me that is
much like the sea
and on days of my greatest gleam
i am the woman who manages
what some may say is the impossible
a son, a daughter, i have them all
and nothing prevents me from
keeping them calm, in great winds,
in the roughest rain,
the sight of my eyes, the searing pain
of life's hard road,
it all bulds to a glorious strength,
the strength of the women before me,
it is the depth of a worldly woman.

Buying the Whore
You are the roast beef I have purchased
and I stuff you with my very own onion.
You are a boat I have rented by the hour
and I steer you with my rage until you run aground.
You are a glass that I have paid to shatter
and I swallow the pieces down with my spit.
You are the grate I warm my trembling hands on,
searing the flesh until it's nice and juicy.
You stink like my Mama under your bra
and I vomit into your hand like a jackpot
its cold hard quarters.

Styes
It was a searing moment in grueling
heat of your flesh, the racist attack had come
to surface, the blue eyes,
edible gold, in nights
the pink veil of the moon,
I will cut my wrist to pour out the pure vermillion;
a huge umbrella of hot kisses
dissolving the contaminated beads
of musk, like fever;
the smoke rolls down the hills
of collective guilt,
an anonymous warning;
the frozen voice opens
like a black tulip on baby ice,
down under goes the sun.

Wonderful Sorrow
Oh,
how wonderful
my
blackened
sorrow
It's
searing pain
breathes warmth,
softening once
calcified veins.
Like dry-ice,
burning away
at the
hardened numbness
of my being.
It's good
to feel.

Beware Vengeance
Vengeance is egotism wrong side out-
violence itself in the garb of justice:
In shooting as envy at others
Itself topples break, scarred with graffiti
But no violence is more eye searing
Where manhood itself wants the virtue
To bury return harm, throttling hit back mentality,
What's the best self of humanity-
Submission to forgiveness and mercy
Where all the honour lies,
Delivers him from the force
That binds us all....retaliation.-
Whose name is frailty

Putting a Face on Love
Secretly,
I'd often wonder
what you saw
when you looked
at me...
Did you see silvered
lengths of hair and
time-worn skin
stretched thin
with living,
or did you see youth
dressed in black tresses
with eyes of green
laughing,
softly,
at life's

Diamonds and Rubies
humankind is nature's
selected alter ego
two legs, two hands
and a privileged brain
to share all the egos
nature spreads all over
the diamonds, the rubies,
the emeralds, the pearls
and every enchanting land
in the sea of space here
and beyond
humankind is nature
personified, the circulation
of energies, the love,
the growth, the searing
of offsprings, the building,
the demolitions, he is nature
walking and talking

The Howling
They howl at the bitter darkness
Down the valley
Echoes on the canyon walls
Inside comes the searing quickness
So precisely
The lingering debacle
Their words cut to the quick and bleed
To the sentence
The midnight poets wail in vain
Be indwell, the knife comes to feed
The erubescent epode
The epiphany, pain
They, standing fast until first light
Interspersion
Deep within the planisphere

Ravaged
Cutting across the food wars
against adamant century
do you think we will become extinct in this
uncool climate?
The dying windows do not throw any light.
I fear in dark alone.
The earthworms are nibbling
at history of mankind.
wearing the ash of dead rivers.
Between the same words
god disappears
and what is left is the image of broken
violins.
Why don’t you set the birds free
and break the cage of knowledge?
The searing heat of arguments
will find the golden silence.
