Retired Traveller
...
I’ve finished with travels, for I can’t agree
With the reasons I’m discriminated
Won’t pay for the visa a notable fee
Won’t wait in the queue of migrated
I’m blamed for the crimes which I didn...

Broken Shadows
...Broken Shadows
She has always had an energetic thirst for life
but now incurious thoughts are strung across her mind
and there they hang, a washing line of confusion
until a nudge of stretching...

Possessions
...Rescued and incurious as I dreamt to be
In forever August where I’m still a child
Wasn’t meant to be important, by a large degree
But it did, and I am baffled why this changed my sight
What I dee...

have the clue, but must keep mum;
most guests, incurious, gratefu...

A Musical Moment

She talks incessantly of Opera,
my nervous systems not listening,
it’s desperately trying
to connect to her voluptuous body,
neural cells hum like eclectic cars.
I cannot think at all of Moz...

Green
...stay your hand
with its obtund touch
take away your arid mouth,
your incurious eyes from me,
from my unscaled sight
you are but dull clay,
Ozymandias, barren
and I am fresh green
that striv...

October Eve
...Pressed loudly underfoot
dead leaves fracturing
scattering beneath me.
Warm fragmentary vapor
slated breath steaming
evaporating before me.
Incurious quiet somber
nearly naked trees

Slave To Love
...A sense of a belonging
Is life’s insatiable longing
A hand to hold, and not let go
A name to call, and feel your whole
I thought I was whole until I saw my missing half
I thought I had it all, b...

Alone
...Wisdom murmurs amid paucity of things—
seekers contemplative in cross-legged trance.
Pondering vaguities pensive meditation brings—
to apprehend with nonchalance of glance.
While to acolytes...

Souls of the Dead
...Souls of the Dead
souls of those who have passed on
are keenly aware of our mortal coil,
for they once were part of this earthen
world that many of us now nonchalantly

Dare his name be said?
I say, of course, Yes!

Nova

Earth in 1572 was a major event
in human thought, because if

Bored In Manhattan
...He was roaming the streets of the New York borough,
To hard him every passer-by was a foe.
Boredom and apathy followed him everywhere,
Why attend his cousin's wedding when he had to pay the fare?...

Judge Me
...Let us be judged by our past, but let it not be by you or me.
