The smiling ones
Do they mean it 
Or are they hiding their truth?

Only in closeness
Can you see the faces
The eyes closed, windows against torrid rain

So you may step into daylight

But in daylight
The fog drifts to...

Fire in my belly
Confidence in my mind
I confront challenges that I tackle daily

Sun slowly rises.
Up from the tree tops,
Bringing crisp surprises.
Birds appearing as props,
Awaiting fresh new crops,

Spring has arrived, so awaited.
Morning star pry open my eyes.
Fresh coffee brews now abated.
Brightens senses without disguise.
Willing my soul to look at the skies,

Stepping outside, crispness alerts me.
All my perceptions are...

All of a sudden there are blues 
Compose with your clues
With secrets and lies
Where your feelings die

You should have known what it meant
When there is abandonment
Leaving feelings of discouragement
For the one that believes in what you meant

Left with no spoken language
That left you with an...

Coming around a behind the fence
Knife’s with gilded hilt shows finger prints...

They would never catch him for they were not global thinkers.
Good ole’ boy thinkers who were not forensic experts in any way.
Stale men who had not been through police training for so long, 
They let people walk through the clerk’s blood trail at the first...

He used to be a hoarder of clues
would keep them in a mind-binder.
Imagine the surprise
when all the clues turned into blank pages

It happens,
a person has a thousand ways
to figure out this world.

He thought he saw some patterns
in this messy conundrum of reality
He had conjectured –...

This is a poem of a little bit of insight. 
You can call it a step or a guide to follow your own light.
Nocturnal vs Diurnal are opposites in facts.
But do you know which one you need to enact? 
Humans can represent both that much...

yes, it is this angular moment
when every thing is a symbol
if the beetle lands on the swollen finger
if the left eyelash blinks disorderly
