We met in that enchanting way in palace corridors spying the other. Our eyes met as our worlds faded and thoughts of others dimmed to sputters. We danced a careful ballet not sure the steps of summer nor could muster forth words to say; […]

Sirens Sound Silent Sound
Sirens sound silent sound;Who shall sound alarm?Sleepy shores of sound,Silence wails a horrid harm,Ghastly- roars gruesome goreIn bloody pleasure farms.Pre-breath-mature death;Scuppered by burning arms. White foam churns body parts,Green currents carry far,Same force fought a shore.Silent Saline brings the dark;Inn-cent hunted, death’s jawsA gauntlet […]
Moon Face
Unveiled souls shining all places,The dowry’s glory on breeze feltSings from knees on holy ground knelt:“Come help blind men see; fire burn and blaze. Holy, Holy, Holy, is the LordGod almighty, Holy is HePromised one of Jessie’s tree.Woe on all who see the Word! […]
Ode to Chocolate
What is the point of chocolate? In madness do we question what for, Or study it and say: why does this exist?No, we surrender to savory bliss;Oh, we delight in its earthy flavor!Once consumed and in our bellies lay,caffeine, sugars, creams brighten day, Then […]

Tangled Threads, Mangled Hearts
Oh how strange are the threads of communication between men and their opposites? The dance of life entangles and entwines them in a web of confusion. At some point when the cords are wrapped around us, we stop and wonder at the cause of […]
Silver Mist in Eternity
“Serenity” whispers the silver creek as it slides by. Clear waters slowly twirl beneath the glassy ripples. Twigs bob and twist, yielding to the gentle flow. Brush, trees, rocks, and ferns, reflected by the journey. Where from, where to, from highest heights to deepest […]
The Presence of a Cheerful Person
On meeting you and seeing you,A spark of light burning bright,Eyes dancing with the rays,Could this be genuine joy? Something in the smile.Something in the squint.As if a secret tickled thoughts,Cherished but shining out. What dull finish could resist?What monotony wouldn’t fade?A force and […]
