Commentary On Last Wishes
L. B. Mek said:

\'I never want to talk
about truth, as if everyone knows
it. I write poetry.\'
how pathetic
all those hours
invested
and yet, still envisage
Poetry
devoid of Truth...
truly
a sad, bitter
state

Alone In Crowd
L. B. Mek said:

(once again, dear cherished Poet
and kind, Guru
you\'ve inspired me to surpass
my feeble limits
with these words of a poetic reply
thank you!)
\'intentions
transmuting our wishful, yearnings
into sincerity\'s, reality fragments
a syllable
imbued with more life, than an ocean
of desire\'s, aspirations..
a lifetime\'s conversation, in but a versed line
or a winking Moon\'s realisations
in but a blurry stanza
of vehemence to humility\'s, divinity
resonance;
inking, squeezed vitamin D
insight\'s
from all that cherished, Nature
we observe as we absorb
freeing ourselves, to reach
in hope
than one other, may understand
our need for solace\'s company
shoulder to shoulder, in that pit of life
with our brethren\'s, in contemplation
of humanistic ideal\'s
anchored by our selfish, ambitions...\'

In Frozen Time
L. B. Mek said:

when they dig us up in a millennia or two
outside of conceit\'s, crystallised tears
what would have survived of us
I wonder...
(a thought provoking, read
thank you, Guru!)
\'You start learning
from yourself.\'
if only...

How To Do Prophesying?
L. B. Mek said:

brooding doorways, engulfed
in rampant ego\'s
we seek, footsteps as guide
and handy trappings, to lament
inking, wishes as truth\'s
wincing, as we read back
and far too - belatedly, realise
that night rain
was necessary, to wash away
our moon rivers
of regret..

To Understand Myself
L. B. Mek said:

(below in my instantaneous
and overzealous, poetic response
born of your inspirational poem
may be the most important scribble
I shall ever, achieve
in this meek existence, I live
and for that, and
for all the other time\'s you\'ve inspired me
to surpass my pitiful limitations
I thank you, wholeheartedly)
\'I seek, no yield
in measuring jugs
of would-be
conquering lungs
I fear
no bottomless pit, endings
or stark awakenings..
solace, be my midnight
and I will wage war for you
at that dawning of light..
regret, no longer
may you scavenge
from within me, your respite
I yield, willingly
but still
resolute and chaotically
calm
in my pulsing songs
I Choose, to believe
like Keats\'
that our wild dreams
be sojourning
on those clouds of change
and within them, threads
a likeness to me
a likeness, far removed from
me
yet, a likeness
that champions, the very me
I shall endeavour, to be!\'

Mutiny By Words
L. B. Mek said:

\'Peeling the tangerines
with delicate fingers, in
winter sun to recite
the poems together.\'
(what an enlightening experience that would be, Guru!
as ever, I thank you)

Perfect Imperfect
L. B. Mek said:

\'I am collecting
dewdrops to wash your face
with sacred hands.\'
just, WOW!
that\'s just so, so delicate...
I bow to your superior talent, Guru

(I read and learn)

Starving
L. B. Mek said:

there\'s, room enough to blossom
these poetic words..
unease, in our minds
makes us feel crowded, while alone
in our own bedrooms..
sometimes, we just have
to accept, try
to strive for better
and let that be enough..
thanks for sharing, Guru

Punishing Myself
L. B. Mek said:

\'Whole length suspended from a tree.
So beautiful, as a star night.\'
this is such a simply worded, yet decadent
ode, to a graceful Panther\'s
magnetic, majesty..
thank you! Guru
(and I imagine
whatever victor
if there ever will be, one
will have to survive, longer
than anyone else
so as to voice
the triumphant, last word
only
that would also mean
there will be no one around
to witness, such a hollow
victory..)

Primordial Legend
L. B. Mek said:

\'I want to know the
meaning of indelible blood spots\'

\'You want to go nomadic. I am sitting
under a sacred fig to understand humans.\'

\'on the forehead of an unmarried sun.\'
\'A quarter moon throws

light on the half-broken wall to reflect
the mood of a run away river of tears.\'

\'It was your demureness.\'

Conceived In Tears
L. B. Mek said:

\'in your amaranthus eyes.\'
I don\'t think, \'poisonous eyes\'
will ever! be expressed, more intricately
Vivid...
what poetic genius, you wield
with such accessible, dexterity
Guru..
thank you! I read and learn

Personal Loss
L. B. Mek said:

\'I prefer intimate pathos.
Not easy.

I don\'t live
in night.

Yellow words
on green thoughts.\'
thank you, Guru!
these lines remind me
of Li Bai\'s: \'Hard is the Journey\'
(I lay my chopsticks down,
no more can banquet,
I draw my sword and stare
wildly about me:
Ice bars my way to cross
the Yellow River,
Snows from dark skies to climb
the T\'ai-hang mountains!
At peace I drop a hook
into a brooklet,
At once I\'m in a boat
but sailing sunward...)

Corrosion
L. B. Mek said:

\'You need a space to
feel my lips in silent dark.
Birch had debt to pay.\'
(it is painful, when
we run, into our Tree
of Karma
kissing it, shock - smack
lip first
swivelling our heads
too, fast
from that past, we run from
to face
that future, we burden
with undoing, all our mistakes
in life..
and so
before Dawn has even risen
our Tomorrow\'s are corroded
by those yesterday\'s
we obsess over...!!!)
Thank you for choosing to share, Guru
Brilliant!

It Was Like That
L. B. Mek said:

\'your smile
in the drifting snow of earth
for dying flames.\'
this line, will be playing in my head
on repeat, all day I think...
thanks for sharing, Guru

Heart-Wrenching
L. B. Mek said:

\'where will truth, go?\'
that\'s The question
of Modernity
when we cut ourselves
willingly
to inject our Arse\'s fat
into our hollow smiles
and evermore, distance
our future\'s from realising
reality\'s, True beauty
where do our dreams
phantom
our illusions of sincerity..
to what end, would future generations, bother
\'try to find
yourself in the lies of society\'

\'Trembling, you open
the knots of entangled life,
to watch the baby sun.\'
(a dwindling, self imploding
Sun!)

Parting Day
L. B. Mek said:

Inspired, but I hesitate
silenced birds, levitate
their destinations, feel innate

Guru\'s musings, whisper
comfort\'s to glib, starkness
of reincarnation, ambitions

typing, I decimate distance
to cross, a Poet\'s etiquette shadows
to ethylate that essential, exchange

Dark Ruins
L. B. Mek said:

or should that be:
\'The Difference\' between
life and death, festers
in that idolised: \'absent, Kiss\'...
(just a privilege
to read your poetic genius)
thanks for sharing, Guru

A Life\'s Worth
L. B. Mek said:

and from the fall, a new flower: Buds
and they shall name her, Addis Ababa
till, that next weed of destruction
finds her
that unamusing
cyclical duality, in Universe\'s callous Nature...

Broken By Waves
L. B. Mek said:

such vivid imagery
imbued with insightful poetic brevity..
a joy to read and contemplate
thank you! Guru
\'Noiselessly you step\'
\'to snub tentacles.\'
\'in my sleep and sit on brows
to count rolling tears.\'
\'The wind will start crying
touching the tender buds
you placed on snow.\'
\'and I will ask the sundew\'
\'Why, withering look\'

Becoming Whole
L. B. Mek said:

\'Not galloping love.
A subdued undercurrent
flows in brown eyes.\'
what a wording
of aged wisdom\'s
tender, hesitative states..
who needs pictures
when poetry, showcases
a movie\'s worth of insight
in just ten, choice
words...
*thank you, Guru)

March 11th, 2022 05:24

Forgotten Mantra
L. B. Mek said:

What Atrocities?
L. B. Mek said:

...and blood, will stain
humanity\'s path, once again!
(such a relatable wording of despair
thanks for sharing, Guru!)

With-Beingness
L. B. Mek said:

what imagery! such an impactful read
thanks for sharing
(and yes, believing in anything
seems so hard
in the face of Nature\'s animalistic
need to whittle down its creations
by insuring, we are all challenged
continuously
for that Aurora gift of a new morning...)

March 7th, 2022 05:24

Changing World
L. B. Mek said:

\'even Beast\'s\'..

Transcendence
L. B. Mek said:

there will never be enough black holes
for the only thing infinite about humanity
lies in our fallibility and capacity
to destroy: exponentially...

Basic Schooling
L. B. Mek said:

so clever, place isness next to invalley
and poetically, space the gap
between what is and isn\'t, at the same time..
(when we understand
the current \'schooling\' system
was modelled on producing
a factory line of factory workers
we realise, just how impossible
those
life dreams and achievement, summits
truly were, for some
right from that first ding
of the school bell: outset)
Another glimpse
at your poetic genius
in this write: Guru
thank you!
