FINITUDE OF LIFE
We are made of moments.
Everything passes:
laughter, pain,
the tear that dried without being noticed,
the perfume of youth,
the winters that seemed eternal,
the night that dies at sunrise...
so let us live for life
is brief and passes......

Regression Whispers

AK the companion
whispers in jungian depths
puffed from psyche
fumes of struggle, lymph
floated across eyeballs
camp was porridge, malaria, madness
heart opened a tendril
a shudder of brilliant focus
how far was freedom ?

A moment's joy, a heartbeat sweet,
A soul we'll never get to know.
The morning dew,...
