a fantastic cymbal beat,
beaten with a firm stick,
then, at the time of closing,
all the lights are turned off,

"The Parnassian Hand" - A Poem by David Hart
Five fingers hover over black print
Apposed on a white sheet.

Tan flesh, short cropped nails and
Overlapping cuticles--an old hand--
A buxom hand--a hand delighted to treat.

Words, numerously luxuriate on holey
Crimpled sheets.

Words astonishing and boon
Words effulgent and true

To arrange? ...

Be not harried by apostasy spates
Surcease ye flux of basilic imprecations
Adhibit ye ,supernal paracletes  
The pith of divinity

An Achates,
Vae victis
In this temporal realm

Chatoyant fanfaronade
Sursurrant congeries
Erelong abate
Shun the gaffer's gammon
Arcadian maundering

Avaunt kaleidoscopic zealotry  
Bandy a cutlass perfervid
Ex aequo et bono

Beneficence's glaive bandies.

Heidenrod 8 (Zorn) Germany 
1984
 Nach vielen, langen Jahren,
sah ich die Heimat wieder.
Es scheint noch immer
wie ein wunderschöner Traum.
Die Erinnerung wird weiter leben,
in Zeit und Weltenraum.
 Seltsam, wie das Dörfchen
sich verändert
und ich alles anders fand.
Herzinniglich gedenke ich der
Jugendfreunde und der Zeiten,
als gleiches Schicksal uns verband.

Rose sequins adorn my hidden, bewitched spirit.
Crimson stars with blooming amber wood
Robins lovely ballad whispers chords in the split.
A scene depicts rustling willow leaves as I stood.

Crimson stars with blooming amber wood
Yarrow thrives in my garden; no promising limit.
A scene depicts rustling willow leaves as...

If I was your lover, Miss
I would beam at the rise of my hand
To the soreness of nothing on you
And give you warmth in sun and moon
That from the aphelia be heard
To which winds and barks acquiesce 

I would caress your rear and some
For many...

Walking, shrouded by the echt loneliness of reality,
I lost my gaze in the uniformity of chaos.
Souls in slumber, malinger around with an ever dying goal in sciamachy,
Rebellious against the fallacy within our Ethos.

As I stepped across these vast edacity of desires,
I alleviate myself from the...

Let's do this for eternity 
My heart cries 
Her selflessness embrace my happy soul 
Every minute with her adorns my heart 
My love for her is never-ending 

I love her to wrestle a star from Andromeda Galaxy 
Her abysmal of love is ineffable 
My world...

Growing up
i always thought smiles a sign of happiness 
a caring gesture:
that could brighten someone's day
white teeth...pink gums:
Presenting a welcoming appeal 

...no one ever told me
that smiles can be fake:
a  camouflage for hatred & disapproval 
the currency for trading favors! 
like a worm on...

Ich will es ihr echt gönnen auch wenn es vlt eh zu spät ist aber es tut weh 
Es tut weh sie aufzubauen 
Es tut weh wenn man bemerkt das sie die Chance hatte die ich immer wollte 
Es tut weh das sie sie nicht...

Du schöne liebe, schöne süße 
du Engel der zum Licht mich weiht
..... Idol dich grüße ich,...In Unsterblichkeit. 
Du flutest durch mein ganzes Leben, 
gleicht einem See Wind harb und rein, 
und meiner Seele bangen streben 
führst du beger nach Hef gemein. 
Stehts frischer Wohlgeruch

In the rich story of life—moments float and sway
            An innocuous glow of thankfulness ignites the soul
A sturdy stance of gratitude entails a virtuous array
Spread all virtues—never tumble into a hole.
