A Bohemian Maze of True Evil
Once so loyal and always true the gargoyles watch everything now
During their stony slumbers with their careful one-eyed open view,
As evil red-eyed demons rain down upon us in their dark-sprit forms, 
Whilst our unsuspecting mortal Earth is flush in an aura of confusion
And a cloudy...

Premium Member A Spectacular Show
Sky covers her nakedness
with the raiment of clouds
Stars array in circular patterns
to stage a group ballet
Amid, sits queen moon
in silken robes and a silver diadem 
bathed in garish light
with a flash of amber and a blaze of gold
like a halogen lamp
Soon clouds will make way...

My Dear Valentine
In the depths of the night I swear I saw your halo
Drifting above, when my thoughts were calm
Ornate but simple like the humble daisy
Lovely and stunning from flower to bulb
Oh how I dreamt that you could be mine
Vision of beauty as the belle of the...

Premium Member The Greatest Performance of My Life
A small desire like a spark, I do not know lit from where,
Frenzy of becoming an orator in me did flair;
I watched often, like blackbirds, seldom shutting my eye-lids,
Each speech of great orators, staying solid like lipids...!

It's time to perform - said well-wishers, relatives and...

Summer Solstice
SUMMER SOLSTICE

Queen Meabh stood beside the cairn, her velvet cape fluttered in the night air,
She called onto the Goddess Aine to return the moon safe to its hidden lair. 
Braziers crackled as wood and turf warmed the dark hour before dawn’s light,
Na Fianna Warriors guarded...

Regretting Cake
Written for the contest "Regretting Cake"

The drunken groom,
was in his bedroom,
as I had my cake with his bride.
And in hindsight I would chide 
myself for charming, smiling,
and to her causing alarming
intimation of satiation loom.

His best man and kin,
were coaxing his skin,
into the nuptial shower.
But the...

Mantra In Mantle
They don’t walk to them
To beseech their shows of hands
They as a rule stay
On a raised dais and talk down
At their feet on crusade grounds...

Lonely Addict - Cinema
A broad day light went dark
with his own conscience..
He locked himself 
into a cubic space..
he searched for his cellphone
shut its voice..
after the last call...
curtain was up before he recall.

speeding cars, mind blowing cinematography
thrilling chase , dashing heroin,
ruthless villain, mesmerizing hero..
he slipped into the drama
sucked into...

Gods Fire
God’s Fire!

Most accidents are avoidable, 
I’m sure you would all agree, 
In modern society, high-tech, 
Where things are more robust.
 
All my relatives believed in, 
God, Jesus and the holy trinity, 
But since there is no god here, 
You just make him up, buck. 

The...

Tet Celebration
The dragons mottled the streets with colorful wonders..
As they danced, twisted and soared into the glassy air.

The Ao DAIs, like blazing flames,
Fluttered in endless joy on the first spring day--
The breathing gale hummed 'HAPPY NEW YEAR'.

Bouquets  of daffodils and pots of lillies,
Ablaze, filled the...
