(a prose-poem)

He was very young, he knew that he relied on others to think, 
live and survive, although survival was an unknown planet in an

He spent much of his time in that garden.
There were people...Read More

I miss the, you, you used to be
Back before, we were us 
You, fully, loved me for me
My quirks, you’d dare not hush

Back before, we were us
You approved of my beliefs
My quirks, you’d dare not hush 
Now, I cause your...Read More

Are We Listening
By: Miracle Man

God has given mankind complete freedom of choice,
and walks by our side through valleys and peaks.
But when a Nation is closing its ears to his voice,
does it any longer matter how loudly HE speaks?

Time has endless Patience
There from the start
There too, 'twill be, at the end
  when all else departs

Time's a humbler of Empires
Outlasts them all
Watches monuments crumble
  no matter how solid
  no matter how tall

The glory that was Greece
The...Read More

Once upon a Monday manic morning I awoke in panic,
Panic with foreboding wrapped, into a world of troubles trapped,
I felt distinctly I’d been slapped, and from my bed of warmth been torn,
My eyes went wide, I cried and cried, that...Read More

He floated tonight and saw it for sure, 
Magic filled up the whole sky,
He saw beautiful particles wherever he looked, 
He saw time just slowly float by,

And the further he looked the slower they got, 
He saw in a galaxy...Read More

We are not created equal.  That lie,
A shallow slogan designed for the vote,
Has for far too long been accepted by
The public, most of whom know it by rote.
We are not born of equal intellect,
Anyone daring to make such a...Read More

"In my battered whelms;
Those profiles which I never win;
My healing has just begun,

they begin...

The winter storms;
often remind me of my birth
my birth when I was born

in the cold months of January...

there was I buried out of my mother's womb;

Now not...Read More

Very rarely will you ever see,
anyone who hates money more than yours truly.
"Well, If you don't want your money,"
they say to me constantly,
"you can always give it to me."
They don't even hear themselves sadly,
not realizing that money, are the chains...Read More

disguised tears of a clown
smile turned to wretched frown
behind makeup his eyes glazed over
at the sight of daisies and smell of clover
in summer fields last saw his love
flew off to heaven she gentle dove
his heart in pieces shattered
remembering the only...Read More

Bang! Bang! Bang! 
The sound of gun shots echoing in the air
Shattering windows and, smashing glasses 
Sending people pouring out in the street
Gun shots penetrating the clouds 
With a message that is very loud

People are running and screaming around
 confused...Read More

Merciles Beaute ("Merciless Beauty")
by Geoffrey Chaucer
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Your eyes slay me suddenly;
their beauty I cannot sustain,
they wound me so, through my heart keen.

Unless your words heal me hastily,
my heart's wound will remain green;
for your eyes slay me...Read More

We wore our meri blouses
And on stilts built our houses…
We carried our bilums so beautiful
And custom dressings so very colourful.

We wore our island dresses
And displayed our art in richness…
We played our native string-band
And drew creative designs on sand.

We wore our...Read More

Blackberry bushes barricade the background
of your immature stature.
Braided chestnut hair rests gently 
on weakly shoulders
as your hazel eyes beam a child's rippling wonder.
Bee glazed berry juice permeates your smiling cheeks.
The taste streams alive as I gaze upon you
with your burgundy...Read More

I raised my voice…
My voice to say what I believe;
To show others what I perceive,
But you tormented me in grieve.

I raised my voice…
My voice to show I matter;
To prove I wasn’t least nor latter,
But you discarded it as idle chatter.

I...Read More

Those that came before were empty of the need to lie
And most of what is bad ,  including deception 
And the evolutionary defects we have now ;

Those that came before had a purity we now ignore 
Knew only what...Read More

It’s so odd,
how time expands and collapses.
In doing so, 
it scatters the timeline shimmering across the sky.
It left me crumpled,
Surveilling the kaleidoscope that was my life.
Waiting for someone to chance upon my path
and remake the sense of it all.

Yesterday is...Read More

You are the one that gives your strength
to help me through each and...Read More

beware of monsters in the night
beware of monsters in the night
the ones that linger out of sight
they’re hairy beasts that grunt and lurk
and try to drive you quite berserk
they hide way up inside your ceiling
and while you dream go on...Read More

Prawn soup!

I own the whole eatery. 
I drove miles to be here.
The aroma and warmth, 
Makes me drool to eat here.
I can never resist the prawn soup!
The spices and hotness 
I get indulged in
The sour taste 
It is just perfectly...Read More
