Ignoramus

          – with fixed inheritor –

Allow me ignorance
As hapless perceives,
Can bury my thought
As in fixed inheritor,
Set saved of fraught
With anxious plead, 
Spares of riddance 
Of felt dubious deed,
As fate bid quittance 
But hardly with ease,
One finds admittance
From but a thin teach,
So as to gain entrance
Thru wavering preach,
Be long on encumbrance 
Save ignoramus’s reach!

                           Seen as the plight of such humans...

Looking

– wide eyed –

Holding a thought
To ponder its worth,
Sagaciously ought
Ye honor its birth,
Be erudite sought
Observes held bide,
Thus not be fraught
Looking wide eyed,
As tempted to flirt
With fool’s divide, 
Tho, find you divert  
The while lets slide,
Implies shan’t avert 
Held fixed be last ride,
So shan’t flaunt its worth!

                              Ode to inevitable fading memory...

– for a mesmeric fellow –

Holds may be finally time 
You fix mesmerical place,
While aging state inclines
Must allow a guess to face, 
Worthy façade’s story lines
Wants find liable to follow,
When soon will depict sign
That yet may end be hollow,
Lest one chances new assign 
Would fit a mesmeric fellow!

Looking in a Blind Mind

                    – the while willing to wait –

A fellowman’s fate
Be in a blind mind,  
Short of haste state
For end of the line,
Will reason be late
A welcome assign, 
Thus eager to wait
On ploy of resign,
Yet invokes debate
Tho beset inclined, 
May assure a place
At end of life's time,
As fellowman’s take
Endures a blind mind,
The while willing to wait!

Alas youth of long days,
		  be soon elders short nights…

Looking
At erudite expression,
That questions
Worth of one's own,
Thus, had been sown!

Looking

– for erudite thought –

While eager to find
Endures be sought,
Said sanguine time 
For erudite thought, 
Abides one inclined
By inspired epoque, 
Wants trust defined
Composed as ought,
Optimistic assigned 
Tho may’ve sought,
To acquire consign 
Decidedly brought,
Save deviate minds
Shall suppress not,
Hide merit in kind
Held as calculus lot,
Seek Einstein design!
