FLASHLIGHT IN THE FOG

FLASHLIGHT IN THE FOG
~~~~~~~~~~
in the thick of night,
a beam cuts through the stillness—
truth in the whispered fog

the fog holds its breath,
time bends and stretches,
and I am both lost and found

The Flashlight

The obstacles and dangers are rarely seen
Walking with no lamp in the cold dark night.
When the big moon hides behind the screen,
Flashlight fills the mood in transparent light.

From the abandon overgrown world, 
My nature is clear when the flashlight flame
Bring something incomprehensible into my soul.

Weary nights cloaked in

Again and touch his hand and hold him with
My kisses, wrapping him with

Searching for my last name.
With solo flashlight wandering 
Among scattered droplets of war.

Seek Ye First: Flashlight In the Dark

Once upon a time, I believed that earthly men held felicity keys
Myriad of joy one special someone would woo me to rely on
But soft whispers serendipitous of grace, I heard with ease
Steep in thought, I surely had reached zenith of my reflections.

At times I lived and breathe guilt. Passage of my life held stripes
Alone before

Flashlight

late at night when all people dream
the world is not as it may seem

in the daylight things are less scary 
but at night you must be wary

for the darkness that surrounds us all
one misstep and you will fall

into the deep world below
and then you will begin to know

the secrets that we all hold dear
is what

Flashlight: Stranger In the Gangway

Flashlight: Stranger in the Gangway


The lack of visitors is uterine
and that is why you porcupine
in this dark corner. Here

who can see the cobra
slither from your lips, spray
the phrases of your mind, 

slip back to its moist nest. 
Here, who can hear the jeer
of cheetah eyes. “Come,” 

they cry, “pour on the light.
Your heart I’ll lacerate
