"dans l'heure bleue deux"



He sits at his desk
like some frozen soulless
vintage Christie’s Automaton
It’s a Grey day, he’s a 
world away as...

Beautiful, burnished, brilliant
Yet, my ink friendly inclinations produce a chemical discrepancy
And now, you come – Artist
Scratching, on my polished mental plate
Do not blacken me with your fumigating candle
Do not soak me in your acidic bath
Yet, here you are, sketching to leave your design
Ever so lightly,...

All alone in a bush downstream
Where not a soul was likely to dwell
Pinned against the green grasses, a young girl
Injecting her ruthlessly, a cruel hunk
At my sight, off he fled

A rape victim an innocent soul
Her mind drifts into the abyss of sorrow
As red fluid streams...

Every single day another lost soul
                              Fighting battles, no truth to be told.

Poisonous toxin flowed into my veins.
transmitting a cold, apathetic nihilism.
We stumbled off the trail, you idiotic humans.
Our once-cherished pride is broken as a prism. 

Once we stood tall, our heads held high,
With hearts filled with hope and dreams,
But then came the venom,...

I don’t need
His seed inside me
Or his or him, or their
Passion doesn’t ignite
Anything else but hate

I detest clumsy hands all over my body
Tainting what was once
All mine
I don’t need kisses to make me happy
Happiness won’t ever make up for what
I had to endure once he...

She only came to me when she wanted wine
Meeting at a bar could do that, tainting each meeting
I always had a bottle of her favorite wine ready
She was rich, married and miserable 
But beautiful.

She had a key to my apartment 
Never knocked just walks in...

Shelley
(The Birth of Science Fiction)

I. 
Young Shelley at Eton imbibed the mystique
Of science romanticized into extremes:
He gave his poor tutor a shock and a shriek—
Electric jolt!—eliciting screams.

II.
Explosives and fire-balloons were his joy,
Chemicals tainting his fingers and arms,
Steam engine blew-up—(another mere toy).
Mad Shelley continually causing alarms

Devil in the Pullpit

It's Sunday service,
and there you are!
A wolf in sheeps clothing, 
stalking your prey from afar.

your lambs are oblivious, 
they are being led to the slaughter, 
one would never suspect you, 
not even your own daughter.

People are charmed, 
by your style and charisma.
Little...

I thought I would never again see the sun greet a new day
Now I desperately wish for eternal night.
Betrayed by Newton’s law: an unforgiving justice.
The enemy,
Holding land hostage, 
Tainting its innocence. 
Damn them for what they made it do!
A product of the Devils hands.
Planted to...

Rhapsody in Autumn


Rhapsody of colors spread sunshine of rays have bled
Falling leaves stir ahead blanketing onto grounds bed

Crimson skies sighing amidst flocking birds’ south flying
Canvased pigments complying within natures purifying

Watercolours thru walking of mosaic rainbows talking
Winter within blues mocking upon grey clouds blocking

Chilling air in...

In the rising sun,
Coming down by the mountains,
Echoes the sirens of seas.
Teaming with all life
Were clouds of foul defilement
Shifting torrents to crimson...

Metal vessel floats,
Tainting with slow corruption;
Flora, fauna, disruption...

Hopeful sakura
With leaves falling, vanishing;
Whales sprawling from erosions.
Trying to forestall,
From corrosions nature squalls.
Dying, perishing pleura...

An arthritic flesh

Hesitant wipes off deteriorated lens

Every exhale,
Another tragic sulk unto morrow’s pit
Flaunting suicidal fallacies

Off-white flag motions
Signaling mercy under liar’s duress

Muted pride
Cracking dusty knuckles

Penetration’s decrepit vowel
Slipping in between faulty, stamped licenses
Just to belong

Another back-handed waltz
Bordering beggar dialects

Untrue
Towards paradoxical epiphanies

A faceless identity
Converging amongst unwelcomed hymns
Tainting hallelujahs...

Here lies the past,
Filled with regret and uncertainty.
We wonder how long the memories last;
we feel them sapping away sanity

Here lies the present,
filled with voices tempting decisions.
Tainting the blooming innocent,
With different colors for each vision.

Here lies the future,
our dreams, our hopes, our sacred desires.
All these thoughts...

Where can I go.
Following me like the black plague,
Droppings here and there for show.
----let them lie where they fall
after all
who is the big cheese
who is the termite at the top of the hill,
rambling longer, saying less, 
worthless krill
having to search out a dying whale 
simply...
