ROHRBACH CAFE

Intimacy.

A place
of shared warmth, an atmosphere of muted shadows and candlelight,
where
emotions, profoundly sincere,
softly glow,
flare,
then wane
until, fully consumed, they are dimmed
and gentled
by intrinsic breezes of serenity.

A cafe
of quiet murmers, hushed revelations
among tables close,
but afar,
where
evening lit...

HALF-EMPTY BUTTERCUPS

There was a time of kicked-back comfort and laid-back ease
Times when both butterflies and buttercups were ever blessed by a breeze
Days when wings were anointed and petals pointed to the sky 
Times with the...

I do believe in everything that you'll find in myths
And fairytales.
They're a great way to introduce wonderful stories
That will stay with a child as their mind begins to
Set sail.
Children drift off to sleep while holding...

i will be much sweeter when we get there

Boston Legal raises jurisprudence burdens of proof to a more realistic level
Observant fans of Bergen, Shatner, Spader, David Kelley could be seen as rebels,
Savoring games of assault and battery on real life large and small...

mania makes anything feel good
what feels good I come to believe
makes feelings fact like the rush should
a careless basis, this good can decieve

Still, easy ups push engaged intensity
with little to no effort, I just go

Standing on the precipice of fear and awe,
We are creatures in wonder and uncertainty.
We make all our heavens and hells.
This edge of possibility, where we search
uncharted interstellar dimensions,
the wormholes and blackholes 
beyond our comprehension.

Intelligent maker...

An old world united.
Attributes not known from the peace we campaigned.
Enforced into an unknown war we currently endeavour. 
Utmost bower bird tactics, the uninvited dominantly proceed
From above, streams vibrations throughout every sense of our actualities....

the world is random actualities
and
logic shapes of mind are the realities

direction of time is a probability constant
called
the omega of predictable possibilities

it is first and last with respect change
because
gambling by guesswork is of wide range

with chances...

Believing Covid has to be 
a plan hatched by humanity 
hoaxing a deadly disease 
To which we've no immunity 

One to see our freedoms cease 
or fraud shaping economies
controlling all within a peace 
One rule...

gone fishing as kids meant
follow where train tracks went

and by putting an ear to the rails
listen for sounds of rumbling wheels

the river bank on one side of a bridge
was the only access down the ridge

Major elements like the sun and moon are circular
the flowers, the mountains and the skies
have colours symbolic of their identity
be it odours or aromatic matter.
Organic substance or basic scenting beings
register their presence through the sensation...

Life, as a pseudonym,
Drags its shadow's shadow, which snarls
Itself around traffic cones and
Streetlamps, tearing at its skin
With deliberate intimacy
To alarm light witnessed
Only through strained peripheral vision.

A lace-stitched veil
Slips through sidewalk cracks,
Unisolated windows,
Cataract smooth eyes.

The flesh...

Reaching InTo Actuallity-RITA
To Hurricane Katrina's Mama 
Hurricane RITA & Survivors

Yeah you blew winds hard and fierce,
crossing all our hearts,
you left without waving bye,
I guess you were just a wash.

You took away some actualities,
reaching for our...

Today is the child
Born from the love making
Of yesterday
Facing shadows of tomorrow’s sun
Reflected by its Janus moon
Of remembrances
That freedom is not yet won
That we must get back to work soon
That this slow track is not...

There they were
Dirtied like untreated cavities. 
There on the mirror 
Our benighted oblivion for actualities 

Somewhere across or below
The solution is not shared to bestow
Nor mercy allowed to freely stand 
But only is granted to...
