Wood for glass the shop fronts hide in poster covered shame
And paper blows like tumbleweed in streets bereft of blame
The constant dustbowl winds of change howl ‘business now decamped’
As recession pounds familiar grounds, and poverty dims the lamps. 

Dirty streets, and closed down stores, a...

No sooner than we set foot within said domicile
attestation to so called gentleman’s’ agreement with guile
initially infrequently, but incessantly as time elapsed Isle 
never forget (nor will spouse forgive) with rancor and rile 
ceaselessly besieging, bruiting bare-knuckle skirmishes 
for us to remove ourselves and personal...

Hubby decamped,
Kids gone,
House dilapidated,
Garden gone to seed,
She took-up Tai-chi.

Facing East,
A half veiled sun
Behind her,
She became a
Pictograph,
Crowned by
A golden rice bowl....

held in abeyance, a prison guarded by pain...
suspended like clouds, ready to fall like rain..
drenched in derision, with a laconic control,
beguiled by time, a decamped soul.
torpid and detached in an aimless reverie
tranquilized and sodden, lost in soliloquy
im waking and shaking in this state of not...

It was through the window Pale
I gazed at the miraculous beauty
Snowing and falling of the wintry beds
Which soothened the souls of every eyes?
Who witnessed the sight

The rhythm of love all around

Lanterns and lamps were vanished apart
With the humidity which raise
The smell of sandals everywhere
With every...

American Typewriter gal) scattershot
with Antiqua ancestry, she told me

Never Too Late To Say "I Love You" Until...

Futile lamentations reverberate along
corridors of times long gone, this papa
tearfully apologetic revisiting his base,
fitfully lachrymose torturing unrelenting
voluminous wrongs against thee dearest
precious daughter aware poetic/ prosaic

ministrations cannot substitute bonafide
nor ameliorate cumulative forsaken joys
requisite to bolster compromised delicate
innocence exhibited...

Blazing marigolds of a blazing May
Giving a wide canopy over a shaded pathway
Against a neighbouring tree of fading laburnums
He celebrated with a bottle of Chardonnay
Falling into a dreamy langour
As the laburnums sprinkled in gentle foreplay
Too hot for fowl-play
Many a distress calls of Mayday
Running hither-thither
His hamster...

Certain Summers remain uppercase, 
all blue, heat and breakneck.  We daughters of the season,
off-key in synchronicity, played out
the inborn cool of our age..
You and I came up through a flowery, fulsome time
that thought highly of itself, all laissez-faire but
as acquisitive as any generation.
I meant...

Hope 
Is nowhere on 
Earth

She has hidden her face
Among the crowd of stars

Far from the maddening crowd

On snowy peaks

Somewhere

Away from the 
Clutches of time

In realms Of eternal bliss

From human hearts
She decamped

She faded like fancy's rainbow 
That withdrew s

In the winking of an eye

It never grows

arminius a German vassal prince, offered  bait.' Of the best. More
Land in Germanica off to their west.' Two legions decamped
And were led on their way, by this dastared arminius villian
Of that day' his warriors were waiting in undergrowth thick
Druids there many, made potions; chanted...
