Best Bodies Poems

Two bodies, two hearts and two lives

A midnight moon glistens softly
upon the Mediterranean sea
as we count stars in the heavens,
twinkling like opals on this 
warm Maltese evening

Our island, a tiny gemstone
in an aqua expanse cradles us
within its silken sands,
caressing our skin, soothing our senses
as a...

She’s dead they said!
She I thought. Who is she?
I stared straight down at a frumpy old thing.
On the bed, a lump, so dead.

Was that me? I asked my spirit guide.
My guide laughed; he always loves it
That it takes me a while to recognize my flesh...

Luna shares her sunlit surface
    With the night
Knowing she depends on her
    Love, for light.
For eons they have shared the
    Sky in space,
As both share with Earth their
    Power and grace.

Sol controls the...

What do I do with all the dead bodies
Of those who have murdered my heart
And left me a wreck
With no hopes and dreams
No self esteem
No will to fight
Or get through the night…

What? What do I do with all the dead bodies
Strewn along the pathways of...

War taught of the need for nutrition and good health, 
and so Penicillin was first used on mass scale, 
tin food was too, like never before, 
that pill when you’re ill distributed through war. 

Wellington Boots were first used with army suits, 
when invaders wanted...

Lovers on a bed of leisure,
Caressing their depth with pleasure.
Hands up,mouths down,
Legs coil,in-love drown.

Early morning delivers birdsong joys,
as the darkness is swept away by God.
Undulations for my ears, sonorous
and dear, over and over - I ponder
small bodies with feathers, noteworthy songs.

Why does their cadence console us each day
as the sunrise breaks forth with cheeriness?
How awfully sad that the...

A man with a rich heart is filled with wealth
A man with a rich pocket has no wealth

He with love has a soul at peace
He without love has no peace

Steal from me you are only stealing from yourself

Kill me and you kill a part of...

Blundering bodies
Find fulfilment in rhythm;
Let the Music in....

"Bodies of Work"


Wings lift us up
on the old works 
reinvented 

beauty 
is what we want,
beauty in the mind

we invoke 
a new world,
continuum in harmony

it sings 
in the strange,

beautiful things
in the heart 
to mind 

quantum 
phenomenon
magnetised

Wings lift us up
away from the old 
bodies of work

I have a heart not pumping not feeling
It hangs on my chest serving no purpose
I want it to hurt but it got nothing
Dried all up of life's forgotten repose.

I am soaked in decades unprocessed truth
Forever trapped in perfect preserved corpse
Without preview of underlying roots
Of how...

While the bodies are piling one by one.
Mother is scared, but calm.
Now look at what they've done.

Father is hurt, but they think they won
Mother makes me hold her palm,
While the bodies are piling one by one.

My family is weak and they are done.
Killing people like...

In her last breath,
Her phantom slid in the air,
Dissipating into nothingness
Just as she was nothingness.
Laying draped in our tears
Hades cuddled her lifeless body
And smiling,
Clawed her by the skin
Dragging her beyond our understanding.
Nothing to claim for our own.

Lunch arrived.
Nibble. Crunch. Chew.
Dead never tasted sweeter.
Sucking the vitality...

I hear your heart beat
Pounding inside my head
A deafening aria 
Vibrating every cell and nerve within

Reverberations of passion 
Echoing down the celestial corridors 
Of my brain

I hear your thoughts 
Screaming in my ear 
Like the gushing solar winds 

Whipping and whistling 
Through the cold blackness...

food, god, and the universe as you
You are the universe (I insist and will prove it)
So say grace before you eat ...
You agree we are stardust, the stuff of the Universe
So say grace before you eat, but think productively ...
If stars & humans are stardust,...
