Messages from Stella

I have had two jabs of Moderna--unrolling come the side-effects, a million plus dosed, the human trials are providing statistics; a booster may be required.
Poets faded for a while, coming back. I have not heard from bishu.
So it goes, but where? Here, polarization would be an improvement. I wish you happy thoughts. ~Stella

Mythical Thoughts

'dark in equinox,
confuses the waiting
dawn.

Love stings.
And fog covers, the aura
of falling leaves'..
I read and learn: Guru!
thanks for choosing to share, dear Poet-L. B. Mek

Unmasked Tulips

'Why disquieting
under
the water.
It is not the shipwreck. We
are swimming
to find the depth of love.'
Guru, your words
need to be enshrined somewhere
so all of time can reflect and acknowledge
such a distilled account, of humanity's
most self-destructive: trait
those festering poisons that lurk, beneath our skin
in our shallow rivers of tainted blood, 'veined-glory'
from the divisive oxygen of intolerance and hate
we've been force-fed, since birth....!-L. B. Mek

No Casabianca

'The otherness of uncertainty
Yes it is true. In an
aquarium the golden fish eats the
dying fish,
what laughing hyenas eat?
like man eats the man.
The legacy keeps a watch
a miracle, the night will dance.'-L. B. Mek

Mixed Voices

You have a most interesting style Satish. I’ve not yet figured out how you do what you do: maybe Mad-Lib-like substitutions, random-generation, dreamwork, drug-induced hallucinations, code book with only one de-coder ring. But don’t tell me. A magician never reveals his secrets. Another nice one!-John Cardwell

Leaving behind the baby steps and going forth can be a whole new experience and adventure yet scary.-Poetic Beauty

Without Rhyme Or Reason

the wooden horse brings the groom...I like that line.
there is terror in love, we almost have to sneak up on it.
Trick our hearts to let in...as with the Trojan horse.
I think for me, organized religion died a long time ago.

very interesting write...there is much passion here...the moon is a very strong courtier ...
and courter .....-jacob erin-cilberto


Carbon Copy

Wonderful poetry.-Rajeev Nair, India
From darkness to light, the original sees the flaws and fears of the copy that has not experienced that, of letting go of the past. Satish, thanks for sharing!-matthew Bill, USA

Litany For None

Terrific poem. Thank you. I reread it several times exploring its layers.-Trenz Pruca

more bleak, in tone dear Guru
but no less profound in its Poetic brevity
so acutely you've worded, these layers of insight
like Trenz Pruca commented, it needs to be read
a few times, just to identify the signposts
to its meaningful, worth..
thanks for sharing.-L. B. Mek

Hope Was Given Up

Very powerful words and imagery, Satish jee! I loved the line, "The winter pain brings false wounds hurled by velvety words"! A beautiful poem that depicts real happiness in life.-Padma

No Poison Between Us

how sad, when we let others infiltrate and poison
our relationship
with that avenue for solace and self-expression
we painstakingly, excavated
for ourselves:
from ourselves...-L. B. Mek

After The Bruises

CELIBATE PAIN

Lovely expression...
Transition always
hurts.

It is very true that transition always disturbs the comfort zone that has been existing for long.

Midnight Happening

I found this in the early hours when I couldn't sleep.
So so pleased I did, the imagery is amazing and it really captured my mood at that time.
That's the weird thing about poems for me. Depending where my head is at the time will influence my love of a poem.-CJ Maleney

The Little Was Big

'Not dependent on poverty
of truth, time
leaves the green amputation
on the: heart.'
stupendously, profound!-L. B. Mek

I appreciate your little poems... they are dense, full of surprises, and hard enough to decipher to be elusive, but rewarding to work through.
Do you have a name for the 3X3 verse form you use? What made you pick that style? Reminds me a little of Dante. It's very limiting in a way that keeps you efficient and direct. You have but a few lines to say your piece, so you have to make it succinct and bold.
I read your poems like little riddles. They are becoming like my daily sudoku!-jarcher54

Long Threads

I love the images your verse paints as words. The aches we sometimes feel are caused by ourselves, sometimes by others. As we become older, wiser we will learn from them and hopefully move on with our lives.-Willys Watson
