Felicities Poems


The Altruistic Lamp

Holding love’s altruistic lamp in her hand
She groped around in the falling sun, her
Somber shadows were lost in twilight strand,
Glorious flute blew its pain to her dour
Heart, the wind touched her pale face, told a ballad,
An orchid she could be with a stealthy
Diffidence when morn was in its rhythm, unruffled! 
On an algal path she glided herself gently
In a stolid seclusion, she spoke her voice, 
Drew more sorrows, she stood thus unknown,
With her the world exchanged forgiveness,
She withdrew her from all felicities, no one
Gave accidental judgement on her misfortune.
She preferred and solicited a repose in silence,

THE GRASS WIDOW

All this cowed earth in a blue jar, flowerless
Stands on the pine table.  Clay and wood
Have broken spirit’s voice, to endow
With uncalled for happiness your fleeting presence.

Truth is blunt in your eyes: you do not love me
Or what I seem to claim in you, parenthood and nation,
Lest I decipher too readily the code of your person
And trade it for the platitude of wealth

Joining you has become.  You would rather
Speak of the turquoise found in a still cave
Than wear the married felicities of our age
Wafer thin as an advertisement page

Adorning the scattered newspaper.  My hands
Touch your face.  Nobody loves you like me.

Blondes Brunettes and Merry Go Rounds

Her fun house fingertips tracing dews drenched, fruitions lips...
Felicities ferris wheel; twined, their voluptuous femme fixations
Sixty-nine pink balloons eroticas poesy, carnival caravan of love.
