The Swan
Upon the lakes they do swim gliding so effortlessly   
These species of graceful waterfowl the largest of anatidae family
In their beautiful pure white plumage with elegant long curved necks
Blunted beaks and big webbed feet living together by water's edge    ...

Elegy for Old Growth

Through measures of metered melancholy
The tattered winds sing a rent elegy,
A pensive wail for pristine old growth,
A drifting chant in pure pitch of final farewell –
The mute tongue howls in eulogy
For virgins of a thousand turns around the sun
For helpless...

The color of blood unchanged,
flowed in the stream of time evolved,
as ancient singular ancestor etched
footprints of humanity on the globe, explored.

Common lineage thriving insulated,
splintered into diverse lineage of races,
physical traits got typified,
melanin played with color on the skin.

Born free under one seamless sky,
equality pines in...

Forgotten Hero

I was awesome;
destined to be rich and famous when I grew up.
Until that happened, 
I settled for being a superhero…


And I was!


I was untouchable.
Bulletproof.
So fast you couldn’t even see me,
and faster still in my special shoes…
which was a good thing
because I had underwear on...

How mysteriously mythical
And mystical you look
Magnificently minute 
Maritime majestic migrants
More than marginally manic
Mesmerizing meanderers
Masterpieces
Peacefully going about
Your business
Magical make-believe
Monarchs of the sea
Upright and elegant
In your mannerly march

Moonstruck prone to 
Misfortunes and misadventures
Oft mostly monologuing 
In monotonous monotony
Mediocrely misconstruing
Mischievous mongrels
And misconceiving misplayed    
Merciless minutiae
But...

Repentance
Repentant heart will openly bare
Sins that conscience does pare
Puckered lips tasting evil's fare
Poisonous side effects will square
With desire's glimmering silverware
Contrite eye into dark soul will stare
To catch a stime of iniquity's glare
A modulated ear will widely flare
When oppressed psyche doth blare
Discordant notes mind to impair
As...

(Apropos of Black Poetic Griots)

We may not be deemed apostolic recorders
But we poets, guided with divine wisdom, are
The lay scribes thereof in the chronicling of
Our life’s sojourn in the shadowing times
we spend here on this parcel of what is
An example of planetary creation;

And we Poet-Griots...

"Super credence...!"
Coming from the west,
Known by many;very popular and people's figure, 
Qualified with soft speech,modified with prominent smile,
Dressed with simplicity,but very focal, 
The complexion is matched to brilliance, 
Lifted up in air was the nose;catching public attention,
Perfumed with premium lavender diffused from the skin into...

Medea's Ashes
The crowd is drawn like magnets 
Drawing flecks of finely splintered steel. 
They stand and stare 
At smoke-choked, charred remains- 
Magnificent Medea. 

Her ashes slowly blow like dust 
Upon Atlantic breezes 
Rushing over achromatic beaches 
Soon to rest on Adirondac majesty. 

Death is silent still...

Night's Allure
Thoughts drifting into night's allure
 pace up and down, as day retreats.
 A dark cloak of blackness saturates
 slumbering towns and desolate streets.

 Halcyon of ambient moon enshroud 
 hypnosis on drooping drowsy eyelids.  
 A sullen soul in shadow of it's splatter

A Man Who Sings To Bees
I heard a sound
lilting like reed pipes
wending through air
grown heavy in dusklight
sultry and organic
rising from behind
a pasture heavy with
coarse hairs and droppings
horses and their liquid eyes
shedding winter coats
(and masticated oats)
even they know
they're only scenery
with withers to the wood line
as a shadow rocks
hypnotic rhythm timed
to cicadas...

Halloween's Portentous Fate
It was the darkest night of the year, and the light was eclipsed but the haunting moon was so near. Lagging 
hope faded, and the jading stillness increased my fear. Twas a warm, muggy night with a cool, misty fog drear. 
A vixen wind against...

Premium Member The Space Between Stars

The flow of intrinsic instinct channelized 
through the seamless emotive space, 
between shining sensitivities of discernment, 
drives the central cognitive impulses, 
propels persistently the existential essence 
across the verve-saturated emptiness, 
surges with the waves of sensuous sequins 
of enlivening ethereal attraction
through the vacuity of amorphous...

The color of blood remains unchanged,
flowing for eons in the stream of time evolved,
as the ancient singular ethnic ancestor etched
the diverse footprints of humanity on the globe.

The splayed common heredity thriving insulated,
flourished into different lineages of humankind,
the physical traits diversified to get typified,
while melanin played...
