Quotes about enigma, page 5
Perception
Lips of clay tend to bleed
my kisses.
And the distant moon treads
softly on the spent passion.
A private crimson
blunts the whiteness of moon.
The birds-
step out from the fog.
Last moments -
of the bell to announce
the schizophrenic flesh
sailing like snowflakes.
A primordial fear -
was destroying the profile of man.
Here it goes-
the spiritual enigma.

Man And Woman
Man - delusive
Woman, elusive
He feigns what he is not.
She fails to see what she is.
While he holds some charisma,
She remains an enigma.
He is steered by the head.
She, powered by the heart
He stamps
And
She struts,
When over ridden by pride
He oft gallops on the mare
And she wades through the mire.
He stings if angered.
She stoops if cajoled.
He is a sickle,
When she is so fickle
But Man and Woman together build life.

The Constant
Constant energy is surprising for us,
Inner turmoil resides in your shell.
For the conspiracy is not absent
Of law being blamed for the self-destruction.
A constable acted lawfully for your energy,
The considerable degree of excellence is exhibited
By the crew. What splendid peace! What absolute peace!
Silence is the issue of the energy,
An accusation is confirmed,
And the enigma is solved.
Degrees of crime are defined by the law.

A Prayer
Pray for me, Dear God
that I live to love you �
every day of my life
and love myself too
just the way you do
for I am
a reincarnation of you
Your conscience in me
and images of you
in life�s struggles
make an enigma
of me, resembling you
You�ve been with me
from time immortal...
growing up with you,
I�ve realized
how indomitable,
reckless and divine

Divination
It's demanding even in hindsight.
It's hard to see a connecting light…?
When it's apparent all around is night.
So who can foretell a hidden knowledge?
When enlightenment; comes only to those
On a skiff afloat on, thoughts, past tense.
After; a long interlude of inner voyage
Whom amongst us; can still be inspired
By that enigma of understanding, that
Day follows night that dawn follows sunset.
Divination…
It's difficult even by this hindsight.

Hmmm, Something That Is Mysterious
hmm, i press the word
and lowered my face
so my eyes may see clearly
and there the enigma
slides upon itself on the monitor
the mysterious line of words
keep coming like a rain of
thoughts a train of trickles
pushing itself on the
dark tunnel begging for
an understanding something
that i cannot comprehend
completely and then i said
i like this
something so beautiful
inside my heart
and yet something so
incomprehensible... life
hmmm.... life, oh life!

Striking Portrait
A silvery,
fluting cry of a sleepless moon
on the pillow of a twilight sleep:
an enigma I wanted to share
with a skylark.
From the disbelief rises a sulphur
cloud to thaw the ice on the tongue of a dawn.
First ray of sunlight starts flirting,
with a dew dropp on a wet rose.
It was not a poem but a thought
crossing a bridge into eternity,
for a sparkle in the pain of life,
a hymn to be recited without understanding
the meaning.

Watching A Galaxy
I collect the unknown fears,
better than the known.
Winds start a virgin dance
of reeds.
There was a music for a monk
I prepare myself
to run into the storm.
You are not, what you pretend to be
and I also don’t need to see the ugly inside.
Enigma for apology,
to erode the authority-
for which you carry a mask, to beat the truth.
Where and when we will meet
for interpretations? Sleep may bring
a quick death of a nova
unravel the secret
of a flying prayer.

The Sun's Homework
The dream in the enigma
Of unmolded sound,
Passing through the lips
Of the bullhorn
Where keeps the ashes of
A once great fire
The young gods sat
Around, telling the first
Stories with just their eyes;
When ladies were sometimes
Lakes and trees
Sneaking into the unpolluted love,
Like arriving late for class
Without an excuse,
And naked the phantoms walk
The courtyard made invisible by
The sun,
Who can tell them where to go
Now that their homework is done.

Interested?
Interest made a fond memory,
Inside it heaves as an enigma
Of metallic seizures,
Of worm and cellophane
And murderous beasts.
I have a wonder to proclaim:
Thunk by many, thought by some,
A word too hard a task to connive.
It made me harsh in cruel features in the face
And a wonderful man in the beginning.
Murdered by the words I conjecture,
The life is already abomination,
All white in thought and number,
And it suffices to remedy a disease at the cost of a cure.
