The Vatican Library
It was the last Sunday of the month,
when Providence opened its secret door,
and my longing was granted.
I walked through marble corridors
into the heart of the Vatican Library,
where time breathes softly between the pages.
I asked for only one treasure:
the Vatican Virgil,
that ancient manuscript of immortal verse.
And when it was placed in my hands,
the air shifted—
the walls

Stormy Blues
Eyes that burrow their way into my soul.
Bringing out what I do not show or share with most.
Hearing the pain in my words before I see it myself.
Seeing the tears well up in my eyes even when I hide them.
Those eyes colored like a storm over the ocean, blue but with

Cause You're Mine
In youthful bloom, I once did shine,
A beauty radiant, a heart so divine.
My laughter echoed, my smile so bright,
A joyous spirit, a love so light.
But time and life, they took their toll,
And changes came, my form began to unfold.
The mirror reflects a different face,
A woman worn, with a weary pace.
Your words, they cut, a painful

Barely American dream
Haters always putting me down.
Look how far I've come, gotta
reason to put my hard hat down
No, I don't have an ATM ,
that spits out whenever I want.
I'm just like you.
I'm fighting for a buck.
I don't drink, at least to me, excessively.
Blow money on cars, yeah right
Only if it could get me to

Beside the river where dogs bathe
inevitably, she comes for us all
my lover— death, with her webbed fingers
her skin soft as a porcupine’s,
her quills darting into my chest
tears me apart in search of her craving
a smile as she gently ripped it out of my flesh
she held it out to the heavens and breathed out a cry of death
her teeth harder

WINGSTER
If I had wings or another source to fly
I was born to soar
The sky and I
Discover horizons and unknown distances
Never seen before
Surge among the high mountains
Observing below endless oceans, Lakes, Rivers, Water Falls and running streams
Through the Sun that brings warmth
Feeling the friendly breezes
Into the air to countries beyond America
Where language accents dwell
Senses of aroma

Neon cased, luminaire, a work order about crystal chandelier
Neon cased, luminaire, a work order about crystal chandelier
(Verily, this is rueful) you are only mine
farther shimmering, the glow is only mine
Within a halted time, elapsing the glitch
the memory and the earnest beseeching reach
Album cover landscape and hushed up

Mary Magdalene
The first time I saw her
in the forgotten halls of the East,
the stars whispered her name—
Magdalene.
My soul trembled,
for I knew she was the lost thread
of my eternal garment,
woven not of earth,
but of Andromeda’s fire.
Her eyes remembered.
Her smile healed.
She turned and called me—
Christos, I have been searching for you.
Slow as dawn,
she moved toward me,
and in silence

Please let me have your attention
Encouraging you to write being a representation
Writing offers artistry in your own sensation
One alpha character at a time
Some dreamed while others remained committed and wrote
Writers and Poets of the past took writing to a whole different level
Begin, assured, Committed and fulfilled
Something you might have read and words stuck in your
