Love And The Gifts It Commands
Love wears no gold, nor seeks the crown of kings,
Yet holds dominion in a gentler way;
With whispered words and soft, unspoken things,
It takes the heart and bids it humbly to stay.
No wealth of gems or lavish silk from you is sought,
For love, in secret, makes its quiet own demands—
A stolen glance, a tender touch is

She Commands the Clouds
She tames the sky
She commands the clouds
They get their orders from her
They do as she says
Does she rule by fear?
No
Does she rule by right?
No
Why do the clouds listen?
Because she is sassy, and confident.
And she is the first person to command them.
They think it is great.

Lampstands
We in are in a time of darkness,
A season of sorrow and regret.
Like a great fish caught in a current
Rife with unexpected, opposing tides.
All are tossed ever farther
from lives all hoped to access.
Striving against this typhoon of violence
Perhaps our hope is bereft?
As this devouring night surrounds,
No egress to safely accessed.
Losing strength,

To Be a Poet, Oft Strong Commands Come At Night
To Be A Poet, Oft Strong Commands Come At Night
Oh, gawd- comes raging middle of the night
This horrid current, rise up and now write
An electric jolt, firing through me bones
Of new fortress looming, huge granite stones
And that tingle surging from old waking soul
As pagan's carving of a totem pole
Words spilling out from a resistant heart
Pen

When Love Commands the Train Fulfills
What Love commands the train fulfills,
The six thirty bounds to Coney Island
Where the green Ubers awaits the passengers
Morning greetings, (Urdu) of few words, were the
Pakistan, rules Mermaid Street with the neon green
Were too mama? where too, two dollars:
A repeat routine for most of us,
Whether you’re a

He Commands All Things
The heavens open up and the lord's spirit.
Came down from heaven
Riding upon majestic clouds
Of fiery lightning bolts that showered the church
with glowing trails of shooting stars and streaks of comets
He then commanded the glowing rings of Saturn.
to come down anointing the sacred icons
with brightly shining halos
He then commanded the

Breezing Tree Commands Tiny Creatures
Everyone come along for the shower.
Let's dance together amidst the flower;
And devour Nature's power,
Whilst these tiny droplets descend the river.

Go Paint My Muse Commands
Loving my studio is not enough
I have to actually go over there and pick up a paintbrush
Reminding myself who I am
Today is the day, I say, halfheartedly.
Not ready yet.
Sticking myself back into lah lah TV land
A world that never brings satisfaction of any kind
Yet here I sit hour upon hour
Decompressing and decomposing.
Go paint! My

The Truth Commands
Yes, I’m a Poet,
but I refuse to be conscripted
I refuse to be a victim,
my words made out of stone
I refuse to bleed my heart out,
on a page of blank simpatico
I refuse to give you weakness,
knowing strength you have disowned
Yes, I’m a Poet,
but my sword is sharp and pointed
My shield is scarred and colored
with the blood

Final Sunset Commands
I played out my string,
I ran my race
My chaps are frayed,
but spurs in place
Still one horse to ride,
with saddle in hand
That last trail awaits,
