Calendar commences, conviviality,
kids kvetch knishes cold,
cantaloupe crappy,
kids constantly crunching cookies,
cake, candy.
Could kayaking, canoeing, camping
in Canada cure cantankerous
children's contention?
Can caddying at the country club
conquer kid's complaining?
chaos could conduce calamity,
kindred claiming complete cuckoo-ness,
summer sanity-stealing s'mores scavengers!
Rumoured to conduce a mine shaft abandoned
Reserve behind rural residential too steep to traverse
Sacred scope gazes at Gold Coast Grand Canyon
Struggle's reward - rugged mountain slope reimburse
Pull surges me along across rubble, rollerskate
Pursuit is overcome as corpse, nestle needs in casket
Ravine ripples rise in ellipse repeat reciprocate
Feathery ferns fed by felled black stump escarpment
Each easy attempt equates to triumph
Cognitive storage organise strong carpentry
Problems tandem with answers turn up
Every earnest try results in Taj Mahal mastery
Sovereign track conquest, ocean span colossal
Steeple reaches quiet, my climbing mind inseminates
Forest folds me into sheltered shaft, stone fossil
Grey gum coliseum deposits amber sap permanence
Sixth of May
Sacred Place
As long as i learned
with the experience that
that is not healthy i
cultivate dreams
undone ...
So I learned now
that fuss,
the gesture of laughing
Makes me feel high...
I wish to be that way,
always expansive
imitating the plant that
receives the rain,
as a released dam that
flows ...
I understood that weeping
is a step toward
purification ... is
bitter medicine
that conduce us seek
love: collyrium of life ...!
Conduce To Induce and Produce
We could receive credit to try and conduce,
While the thought into mind we will induce,
Goose not cook;
Take good look;
Only positive things always should produce.

Donald
Who is brave, beneficial and beautific.
Who is the son of Frederick Christ "Fred" Trump.
Who loves politics, congruity
and the peaceful world.
Who feels excitement, anticipation
and Elysian bless.
Who needs embolden, conduce and love.
Who fears felonies, ferocities and A-bomb.
Who would like to see peaceful world,
more sunrises and greens.
Who shares interlocks, interacts and integrates.
Who is a president, father and friend.
Who is a resident of white House.
Trump.
Love, an atom,
destroys our life.
Love, a poison,
carries our death.
Love, a storm,
uproots our peace.
Yet I am ready
to die for love.
What a tragedy,
I die for love!

Spanish Version
Amor
Amor, un atomo,
Destruye nuestra vida.
Amor, un veneno,
nos conduce a la muerte.
Amor, una tormenta,
Desarraiga nuestra paz.
Sin embargo estoy listo
para morir por amor.
Que tragedia,
Morir por amor
Translator: Alma Lorena Lopez Velazquez
ELECTRICITY
The eel of our time with tails of electrons,
Will tell of exploits in torrents of currents,
And the places of stillness shall forever revolve.
To conduct,
To condone,
To conduce.
The mast of transformers in cables clad,
Of metals and voltage, scaling the resistance,
And of course, beaming on us, amperes in ammeters.
To confer,
To conform,
To conceive.
The days of industrialization awake the lakes,
Of things to do and trials to attempt,
Of hydro-chemo-solar revolving electrons to merge.
