I Bleed

...

I bleed

I bleed
Pain, pain
Irrigating the soil
Of my now fertile womb
Seeds pl...

Clouds and Candy Raindrops

I let go the sky, but keep it's sobbing clouds
I let g...

Blood Over Water

...blood 

                    red, true

 flowing, agglutinating, testing 

lineage, pedigree, aquatic, rain 

   drizzling, diluting, irrigating, 

             cold, navigable,

         ...

A Little Girl Named Marie

...
                       I
  There is a mud brick house
with roof of palm fronds and thatch -
  behold a little girl named Marie
in possession of my farthest dispatch.
  My picture on its pa...

Angel Falls

...Uninterrupted gurgle of nature,
From creator's heavenly reservoirs;
Bubbling, rippling, trickling white trans-nature,
Ceaselessly penning watery memoirs;
Is Tethys, the water-goddess, weeping?
O...

Longanimity

...Having waited for long after hard laboring,
Tilling, planting, manuring and irrigating;
Keeping stray animals away from grazing them,
Protecting them from dangers, as though, costly gem; 
Treatin...

Perseverance

...That farmer
Tending the crop 
Like his very child
Giving manure
Irrigating
Protecting from insects
Spending sleepless nights
Saving them from the wild
And thus 
When they are ripe
And ready...

The High Road

...I remember that day, my friend when you said: I will lead,
I left my leadership as a tree untimely leaves shed;
I was happy indeed, just like holding my father's arm,
What's more happiness than th...

The Giver

...In and out the cave of heart
blood flows in and out flows life
irrigating plants and mammals
feet top tree head heights
sipping food from earth and clouds
and from sun its milky light
growing b...

Westward Bound

...The past was locked in with very little 'right of passage'.                                                                                          The present was also 'on lockdown', but plotting i...

People Were Proud

...I read and learn, trying to work out 
the problems of the world
trying to develop solutions
to overcome world problems

Are my ideas financially viable
if we teach people to become investors

Lazarus

...Her stare is a scent tied to memory.
Hanging long as a searchlight out to sea.
Here where Times only purpose
Is to punish in fluid translation,
mocking with it's lap of tongue across the beach.
...

Free of Blame

...In the shoals of the lake
  a deeper truth was buried

It waded ashore
  when your memory was parched

Irrigating a message
  long ago forgotten

Returning your forgiveness
