Bobby’s Batch #9 - Poetic Blademaster
Before I get started with this week’s selections, I offer two short poems. I hope you enjoy them. I am trying my best to make each new batch as unique as possible - this week was particularly fun and fulfilling!
Reason
Liquid dreams convulse my tarnished soul
imperfect I stand
forever screams forged from anguished toll
accepting all I am
for the first time alive
destined to revive, to decide, to visualize
my reason for living…
I feel so incomplete and dry after the lines above, I have decided to go with this instead (hey, I can’t help it - I’m a horror writer):
Cold Razor
Twirling blades of razor
hissing snakes of sound
I approach; voiced in doom
death bladed master!
blood moon pastor!
Burning ice
the feeling they say
wind on wet bones; scarlet sheathed
knotted fingers shivering
blades flutter
skins of butter
and lonely surgeon
with victim quivering…
Ahhh…I feel better already 
I’ve been reading a lot of great poetry about in the blogosphere. I really don’t read or study the legendary poets throughout history as I get my ideas from other places; such as an event in my life, a picture, a song or a fleeting thought; germinated and nurtured within the dynamic tissue of my innards. I strive for nothing as poetry shall be written…all by itself.
I think of all the starving artists; from every form…from music to painting and all between. Poets often go unnoticed - yet their work is so important - it defines the essence of expression. Therefore, I dedicate this week to but a few of the blogosphere’s finest poets and writers.
Jé Maverick is a wonderfully imaginative poet whom I recently started reading. I was mesmerized by his finely honed expressions and uniquely abstract motifs. With so many interesting poems to choose from - it wasn’t difficult - they are all worth reading. The first I read today was Other Sermons; filled with truths of spiritual hypocrisy as well as introspective complexion. While you’re there, spend some time and read several of his poems.
The explosively enigmatic Paisley wrote the flesh broiling, bone charring and ultraviolet poem, The “Green” Racket. You might need your polarized sunglasses for this one. Al Gore had better hide!
The illuminating and scintillating Anastasia wrote an interfusion of heated attraction and pheromone fantasy in her urge brimmed Twilight Taxi Ride. Holy carnal conniption Batman…I need a cold shower!
Square1…the fantasy scribing literary chemist engrafts realism with wonder in her beautifully inventive, Write Your Fire in the Sky. I absolutely loved this story!
I spent some time combing through Beaman’s archives; infiltrating his treasure trove of poetic lyricism. A truly brilliant poet can write from any perspective and offer a plenitude of assorted coolness. One such versification is Hunger - filled with feline violence and dark humour - a great read.
The world wise spiritual visionary, Michael Skowronski, wrote a fantastic piece filled with depth and meaning in International World Government. I have often thought that a similar government is the solution. This is in polarizing contrast to the current militaristic movement towards a one world government. I believe humankind has difficulty living up to it’s own intelligence…it’s time to do things right.

paisley’s last blog post..the words
Thanks Again Bobby. Wouldn’t it be nice to feel safe in our world again? We can and we will.
It is a beautiful world when love is present. It is a beautiful world when we are free to be who we are. But lately there have been many who have tried to frighten us and tell us about terrorists.
One of the things I have learned about life is that when someone comes to you with an emotionally filled message, and hurls accusations at you or another person, that it is themselves they are talking about. Consider this the next time our terrorist Government is telling us to watch out for the terrorists in the Middle East or even the Homegrown ones.
We need a solution that lets us the common people solve ALL of the problems in the world with our expertise. With each election we hope the newly elected will do the job, only to find we continue to be worse off than with the last mob we elected. It is time to end this system. We have the tools to solve our problems ourselves. It is time to implement them and do away with professional politicians. Read my blog, International World Government. It explains how that can happen.

Wow, Bobby…thankyou for the wonderful write up…I know who to come see if I ever need a blurb or two!
Horror poetry, on the other hand, is a fascinatingly dark genre…not one that I’ve ever been able to carry off very well, but you did exceptionally so!
Jé Maverick’s last blog post..Canticle Of The Lips
Thanks Paisley! I hold back immensely in my horror because it would be unbelievably offensive to most people…haha!
Hi Michael, You are so welcome! The American government is so absolutely corrupt and they are are smart. They answer to nobody and police themselves - all the while, people are preoccupied with meaningless elections and mass media entertainment.
I fully expect another terrorist act very soon and for martial law to be established here. We know how it works! The entire government needs to be completely changed. People actually believe that a new president will make a difference but it will not change anything. The real terrorists are the officials of the American government and people must know it.
Hi Lili! Poets get hardly any attention and I just wanted to give some to them. I love all types of poetry from happy to sad and all between. It is definitely art and I for one appreciate it. I would love to read some of your poetry! I’ll come visit you today
I always get jealous of people that can write good poetry..
I for one am not good,
at writing poetry in words,
I end up making a dud,
that smells of poo
