AHRAM EMMANUEL ODENCIO PONCE


"Alas, 'tis life, 'tis life, I adore!" My ironic interjection.

Heir of my springtime, hold this precious gem I finely made.

Reach me out as I feel it--my metamorphosis. I now am in my redirection;

"And I shall put you in my red pouch," you said. "akin to my luscious lips."

Man of my dreams, my spring, would you let me give you tulips?


Enchanted as I speak before you, how could it be possible for this life to bear this creature?

My Lord, from my suppressed life that I have put in minuscule,

Maximize, I maximize! They grow, I perceive it from here. 

As I take a glance, I shall appreciate this blessed place anew! 

No place could precede this--series of my transformations.

Utopia, I had not seen you for a very long time!

Each day, I wonder how could you be this attainable?

"Love wanders," they speak in their customary living. Therefore, I express my serendipity!


O, apostrophe, from Earth, I admire your unfathomable-yet-fathomable corporeal!

Denotations utter and connotations think; the latter is my ideal.

Enclosed reality, I must not eagerly sight, for I live with these figures.

Notice me with the enticing eyes; this persistence I carry with this mighty saber.

Closed-eyes, I witness my dreamt cosmos granting me valor.

Interstellar, aye, my pleasant gaze; to you is my bestowal.

O, greatness of the North wind, give me my withdrawal!


Poetry shall save me from these storms, as I have known it.

O'er the tumult of my life, you came across fearlessly. With your pen, you are humble:

"Naught shall bear your salvation but through His abidance."

Crashing soul, it was my state, then; with your love, I shall wave them farewell!

Existence, with you, is now my known friend, and I feel it with its unfeigned embrace.

 The hatred is piled up, enough to orchestrate a crime  and to hide it in nightmarish metaphors. I have imagined you getting piercing through the fragility of the roof of your mouth, until you beg for forgiveness with your really untamed spirit. Perhaps, flaying would be much better, but crying will be reverberated through every corner of your long shattered room, as your annoyingly pleading voice will still be heard. An unforgivable, hell-bent serpentine, you always are, caressing the man’s ego extracting his exhaustion, and me against a fiend in your presence. Such a soft way to demonstrate hell to you— as it was not even a flinch, or a poke. You deserve heaven appearing reverse, so the gods you have known will forbid your salvation.

Emancipaternal

If I were to talk about a father the arcs of his ears are enough, yet, he would not talk, just like the heavens when you plead, as he is better now: he does not hide in his paternal loop, nor would he ridicule my son I have been hiding. He once knew that what was not written was unprincipled; now, I talk and he pertinaciously listens, unbothered by my pretentious tone. He speaks, but only at night— with his melted heart. I taught him to be more man: now, he would cling to me as if I were  a wife who cooks for her. I used to watch him with Mom's self-made perspective;  however, sometimes, you really have to switch taste—I still love horror,  but not anymore from my father's. After all, he still sees the child in me and the afraid. A father should be called pink and he shall not flinch. Freed from guns and loads, and he shall not be defeated; for he is still, and abandon is not his last name, as I still reweave his first name in my poems. He has been with me:  inherited every fib

Grief (ii)

" Death and life are a friend ,"  the old lesson keeps bludgeoning me. Death ripples through the streams and creeks that flow near the homes that depend on recollections.  Each of these bricks used to be housed by fine architectures,  now bound by white bands and prayers. On the front porch, the most-welcoming wreath of carnations,  which are enveloped by symmetrical stanchions,  greets every person that comes through it.  And I thought: if death comes near,  then life is nothing but sprout of vine reaching its arms to a far cry,  and never will it give you time to read every sentence death foretells. In this house, it now gives homage to the days I could remember but never hold. Here, I witness: Candles are as still as my stiff existence,  while the quietness of each life in the room screams. The sympathies dress black and how regrets strip my skin. But how could a friend hurt you when they only visit you once? That every gaze to the rectangular—which holds my dear roots—las
