Ode to a Journalist

...You made up your mind to view the world
With different eyes —eyes recessed, eyes inundated with lustre,
Straining to catch every flight of the dancing seasons that hurled
            Man and beast...

  The cottage with its black window frames and white pebble dash glows in the

lost Night

...Surrounded by gold Lustre
Old Clock chiming
extinguished the last vestiges

streets laying bleeding
the venom pliable
The last revillers
dressed in tweed
their  wanna be yesterdays

...The sun withdraws gently, a charmingly shy figure,
Upon the eyelashes of the expanse, a longing rests.
The clouds, abandoned poets with dreams dry on their temples,

Nights Infusion

...Nights infusion
bleary eyed rivals
in Soho tweed
Pharaohs joke was here
Denim clad oxymorons
with spotlight eyes
Archways lean close
as sticks befuddle
their spark of epiphany
A jewelled sil...

Talk To Me of Daybreak

...Talk to me now...of day break
Of questing light
The sky
Salted with clouds
crimson with a spectrum of a rainbow at dawn
or
peppered with grey and raindrops

Sugared all
with the seeds of a n...

Three Archways

...Years ago, in a big transition in my life,

I witnessed three rainbow archways.

Framed by sun-kissed red apartments,

The setting sun kisses goodbye to the cloudless sky.

The One-Eyed King

...The death knell, ringing requiem bell,
a saddening sound,
archways they pass, tears flood the mass, 
deep and deathly profound.

Can be very pleasing to the eye
You never know what you will find.

Island In a Lake

...Every morning... every evening,
he feels like an island in a lake,
a deep lake glistening in lithesome ripples.
His cranky old face sees an illuminated white lotus, 
withering in shades of shaggy...

On This Day of All Days

...On this day of all days
         Twilight whispers
                  Songs of our pristine dreams
          Our calm harmonious tones

The Day My Clunker Broke Down

...Once upon a time, I wanted some Archways,
Those yummy spicy Windmills, I say,
So good spread with soft cream cheese,
To keep myself if you please.

Got in my clunker to head down the road,
Hidd...
