Stepping Out One Evening
A warped board on a bench seat
causing discomfort
to an old bum, an aching foot,
a touch of pity all came to keep me
self-sealed inside a bag of skin.
I took no note of the river

into tomorrow your eyes concealed

Gleaming GloamThe sky canvas seems glittery.
Hiding a divine mystery
The red moon’s rays glow like ruby,
Sapphire stars shine so silvery.
Swift's shadows sing the sun's send-off.
Each shade shows nature's mastery.
Midst black-sheep clouds are a taut trough.
Sapphire stars shine...

All said and doneAll said and done
Nigeria is the giant of Africa
Though currently lost in a maze of confusion
The giant is on a journey of self-realization
The journey of self discovery
Shedding its skin of criminal enterprise
Preparatory...

Before the Day Turned into Night ITQStaying at the western brink high
Sun opens his fiery third eye
Red tint quickly colors the sky
With white chiffon clouds floating nigh
Before the day turns into night
Earth gets flooded in amber light
God dips his brush...

One Wish
Risking the wishes of a silent night,
Colored in hope,
Silent and slow, rising far off,
Beyond the milky slumber of a sunset,
Blazing bloodshot and drinking
Melancholy, ruddy faced,
As the moments,
Poured out on the twilight,
Leaving echoes of yesterday...

A dark cloud of cancer looms on the horizon.
Will it simply pass or rest above me, and shower demise?
Or will the clouds break with the power of thanksgiving love,
And His wonderful face shine on...

Winter's NapWinter approaches with a soft, light step
A simple breezy chill swallowing your mind
With eyelashes frosty and limbs bundled up
A home with flames dancing in the corner
Silken bed inviting you to a long winter’s nap
But where...

Time and Time AgainTime and time again
I have made it here,
Said goodbye to the old
And welcomed a new year
No top hats, no noisemakers
No champagne or wine,
Just the purest notes
... Of 'Auld Lang Syne'
So, what am I...

Christmas Wishes from the ParentsThe idea of Christmas snow in Michigan is replaced with fog
Hot breath exhaled to cold lollipop trees
My blurry life-sized polar bear salutes through the front window
To me
Staring back from the couch
He is sweating out there...

Themes EnamoredMeet me when
Sky paints pink
On mauve eve
Embossing love
With blue sapphires
Lured by kiss of
Romantic night
And twilight amber
In themes enamored
Bedazzles your dream
As horizon gleams
Lapis lazuli

I Saw Santa ClausSnow had fallen, Christmas Eve morning,
On every rooftop and branch adorning
Burying my rural world in white,
And changing this place overnight
Early, I had wandered out the door,
Wanting to take in the forest more
I did gasp and...

Opposing - DustDust…
demon and angel breath divide,
brief memory revelation flash,
tracing lust lit fury,
arcing beads of light on parted lips -
Purity…
spirit devoid, stillness entangled,
chained and blind, thoughts swirl eternal,
lost, mute, indifferent…cold,
descending darkness, stitches mouth mute - ...

Putting It Together
I step out into the evening,
into a cloud of whispered conversations,
insect talk, birds uttering
their “goodnights” high in the trees,
the days last gossip settling
back into a more respectable
muttering of leaves.
Then other sounds,
