Like melted chocolate,
words dripping
from his velvety tongue
rippled to her heart;
she tasted their rich flavor,
inhaled the aroma,
succumbing to
emotional intoxication.

Seduced by luxuriant words,
her defenses weakened,

I know a maid—her name is Rose.
     She has long hair that’s thick and dark,
and great, green eyes like no one knows;
     and she can sing just like a lark.

She loves to read, and is well-read:

A paling sun descends in late day; with a wink,
it signals the moon to rise. In only a blink
of my rested eyes, newly tanned limbs cool in the sand,
and the foamy tide sprinkles my lips with a salty drink. 

New memories cover me like a...

self-indulgent blues...


my voice is hoarse
from the silence of my relentless screams

my very self rots
in the darkened cave of my misplaced dreams

all of everything that once kept the knotted peace
is now tattered and in pieces

twisting in the howling wind of the futile present

wasting away with each...

Awoken by the relentless noise
of the pelting raindrops,
frightened by the gusts 
of the bending treetops,
I face an uncertain day that can't offer
any sweetness other than bitterness as my dose;
a low spirit like mine needs another powerful prayer!
Don't anxieties, swollen as clouds,
pathetically reflect a sad image...

in the realm of romance
where every image hails
from passion's strong stance
               for, I am a beautiful princess

I am if not a man of routine  
A glass half full is a still a big spill if it tips
I can't believe you’d let those words slip 
So make like Pluto and demote yourself 
That's only something you'd say 
While imagining someone else...

Completed desire to like delight:
Corporate classified diligence prism pilot life;
Corrugated formed indulgence;
Wondering sold bought reverent;
~
Darkened patches lights;
On your night tried strife;
Such is the way plight;
Garnish seen eyesight;
~
Delighted life indulgence reverent;
Lit lighted strife eyesight plight;

The better the words 
  formed

The meaner they 
  became

       ‘free and alive
       and stirred from the bottom

       'hidden and denied

Free verse : Indulgence

The sunburst dawn’s flaming film 
flushed your flamboyant face,
as the horizon turned to golden fresco
in my dew crowned meadow,
you flittered like a butterfly,
my yearning got poised on frozen time.

Before you could fly away far
with the fragrance of my fervor,
leaving me in the...

I
When mistakes (sins, really) occur
Again, again, again, again, again
Who has grace enough to forbear?
Maybe misguided mothers, not men
Like me ... Either old school or clear
About action-reaction, choice - consequence

II
All sides gain if there seems to be justice
With great mercy, grace, forgiveness
Or forgiveness is but a...
