Best Winnowed Poems

The tears well up, and scarce could she not moan
When father, brother, husband, all have died.
She now has no possessions, neither home,
But travels to a distant, unknown land:
Once so secure, yet now compelled to roam;
Once rich in love, she treads through foreign sands.
Her weary feet...

He walked with her a good mile
and talked with increasing smile,
with wonder he sat,
for the gladness in her heart;
...spent her days with wild hope ---
that he was in her eldest dreams,
from the beginning smote her monsters
and eased her deepest fears...

Now he rode with her again...

Our Midnight The Unseen Within
        ( Collaboration )

Silent unto our sense, yet musical
With eternal harmony, they move
About our darkened vision, the beautiful ones,
Angels of destiny.

Pale with the dawn, sun-golden with the noontide,
They mingle with our moments;
There is no...

The deep delved path winds in the wood,
chasing with ghost-breaths and leafy hoods,
arbor-brawn the winnowed path crooks along;
whispering with what future song?

To ill desire and inches from hope,
plodding the cool of Earth alone?

...and the road behind pretends to love,
waltzing with garland worlds,
old friends long time...

To reach nirvana
Poet paradise
You have to reach the third level

It's a journey to forever
It may take some their whole lifetime,
and others may never get there

It's a quantum leap
fraught with uncertainty
First it takes writing skill,
then an inexhaustible will
and finally, untapped creativity

The first level is easy
Most anyone...

Silent unto our sense, yet musical
With eternal harmony, they move
About our darkened vision, the beautiful ones,
Angels of destiny.

Pale with the dawn, sun-golden with the noontide,
They mingle with our moments;
There is no sadness that they do not share,
No night they are not near.

Even as flowers that...

The mistral cold wind blew incessantly wild,
Winding in the streets, its glacial currents in and around
The apartment blocks where all frosted windows
Were tightly secure.  Still the bleak wintry chill entered
From tiny ruptured chinks and spread inside
Annihilating the miserly heat emitted 
By old cranky air...

O’ to fade! To pass! To rest! To die!
     To ponder, to listen 
              and not to forebode -
you were as a thresher to the chaff

I looked at her across the years
      her graying tresses, winnowed tears
         and there amidst, my own dread fears
   that life might find her lacking -
her one true love

Does your money derive from health-regenerative investments?

Well, what could that mean?

Do you make your money, honey, 
with both light and dark co-arising memory
of midway love and peace intent,
avoiding anger-fear monoculturally competitive
dominant-power relationships,
and struggles against others,
against Earth,
choosing to struggle 
in solidarity with cognitive-affective
chronic neuro-sexsensory dissonance?

Indicators of...

I'm in the life-long process 
of conjoining a Unitarian Universalist Green Sanctuary
communion of All Souls
living healthy 
on all wealthy Earth soils.

This is not my first time joining an intentional good-faith community,
but it is the first time I have signed a Membership Book
of historical,

Show me intimately passionate ways
to incarnate politically 
and religiously cooperative co-investment,
health and wealth and wisdom prosperity, 
regenerative integrity.

Show me active hope
for climatic EarthLove passion
uniting polycultural polypathic polymorphic paradigms
of evolving neurodiverse people 
light-loving transparent neurosensory pleasures.

Who am I
in Ego’s deductive dark winter 
of decomposing crown-fallen seeds
and...

lover! lover! lover!

you think human heart 
is an open page, 
a requiem to be read 
at leisure? 
or you think it a black hole,
impenetrable thick darkness
to peep through? 

what is essential to the heart 
is invisible to the eye—
a reason that knows no reason—
LOVE

You gaudy stars do not get giddy when I grieve
Nor wrest through clouds to melt this darkness
That so befits what logics to your destiny weave
For all dreams, and all theories prove finiteness
Where death draws the line,
And purposes find terminus
And we a quick, withered gust
To its...

  Where sets the sun again
far from the din of Port of Spain
  shadows fall on the plain.
And on that plain over I strode
when the wind its trees winnowed
  up the old Eastern Main Road

  Now in woodland D’abadie
in this land’s...
