Fables
What are our millennium fables?
Women keep giving each other labels,
No harmony for our ecology,
An alliance should be our synergy,
No accountability for the economy,
No wise leaders...

The tale is shared
Vivid and bold,
To air old cares,
To redeem souls.


The journey starts
In old China;
So many parts,
Lost agendas!


The journey ends
On distant shores;
East-West now blend
Fond tales...

The load of time
weigh heavy 
on the yokes of life;
the unshelled shelled.

Goose Spelling a Definition
Geese are
Not gifted
Spellers.

They write
Poems
In their eggs.

The letters
Cannot
Be separated
From their yokes.

In the court

 My garden cultivates Nubian yokes
forever...
