colour palette spilling with paint on grass,
vision to capture nature on canvas,
makes myriad strokes, eyes strain behind glass,
creates butterflies, pupas with larvas.
meadow he paints with million shades of leaves,
sky is pure golden, light filters through trees,
to add impact, network of twigs he weaves,
he is bending his back, down on his knees.
cider, oak, and others to him unknown,
paints replica of which God would be proud,
sun flower so real, attracts a drone,
soon draws admiration of local crowd!
weeks he took to create his master piece,
each season that nature creates with ease.

Ignorantes e analfabetos
Ignorantes, analfabetos,
quando atingem posições elevadas,
tudo isso a que chegam tais pessoas
afunda diante delas —
e o cerne da vida de cada qual
está cheio de pútrido excremento de larvas.
Ignorantes e analfabetos
E andam correndo atrás de coisas falsas,
e para mim são muitas vezes pessoas
que pautam as suas vidas por um hábito
que a elas foi imposto, e nada mais,
e para mim é gente triste muitas vezes,
gente afobada, estremunhados sonâmbulos
tateando no escuro.

~Beautiful Dragonflies~
(American 767)
Dragonflies are odonata
they have close large eyes
bigger than the damselflies
Have slender bodies two wings
Variety numerous
they eat other small insects
Attack small fish and tadpoles
eat mosquitos and midges
they live in diverse biotope
Some are found in ponds and swamps
Prefer to live in wetlands
Some live in lakes acidic bogs
Male grasps the head of female
Sperm transfer fertilizes eggs
Some female lays eggs alone
Eggs dropped in aquatic plants
or directly in water
Some larvas stage in ponds marshes
When ready to change into adult
They climb out of the water
Shed skin become dragonfly
Dragonflies are unique insects
Colorful beautiful
Adults can live up to two months

hiding in the lap of this field,
i can hear your barrel
knocking at soil,
chuckling at my
ramshackled dreams
it was you ,man
you was my brother once ,
younger son of my mother,
i can smell mammas
umbilical cord ,
when you throttle my heart,
pierces through my veins,
pouring chemical fumes
at my damp skin,
i prayed for your bliss,
to the eternity,
through my breaths, sighs,
you got golden marks,
crushing at my limbs,
you squeezed degrees
and fames,
your labs was my
mausoleum,
your pesticides
was my
killer
your fames was my loss,
i can see you brother
bearing the white powder
in your arms
to demolish my
larvas,
tadpoles,
with your famished
tongue
you made my sorrows ,
the best item for your
supper,
with a despairing sigh,
i'm writing my
name on your homes
again and again,
because your
sons may not know
what is a frog
