With their two opposing attitudes,
“Let us tell you what...

For Kerri and April
A cacophony of cheers
Sand sprays like fireworks
From feet, hands, ball, hair.
Four women, two-a-side,
In a battle for the ages.
A motion of fluidity and a
Knowledge brought forth
From years in the fray.
Sun, rain, the elements,
Just more adversaries
In a...

Brooding Presence
being adventurous mammalians
we seek to avoid the repetition of pain
and encounter the repetition of pleasure
which might be why the ones who have everything
take from those who have nothing
just to get a little bit more

Oscine Affinities For Summer Summit
Up for grabs are looming sapidities of a summer summit.
Prompt as forecasting device, keen as cropland mice,
trying to surpass oscine elves turns out no dice.
Wondering how these yummy yodelers telepathize herself earliest,

Our Truth
What are we? you may ask,
While looking into the mirror of life
Reflecting all people having the same blood
Running into their similarly shaped bodies
What are we, if only for a difference in
Personality, name, mindset, affinities, and...

Seek Shelter
My residence has never seen any demolition.
Nor had I to shelter under a place of obstruction.
It's my extirpated inner self that I'm fleeing from.
And seeking a refuge where faith is unshakably firm
Natural calamities have little...

Villanelle: the Dilemma of the Non-Violent - 17

Real power lies not in the ranks of the parties
Nor in heads of governments parties elect
Puppet-strings in hands of secret societies
Those whose claws pierce guts through nationalities

Failed Hopes and Beliefs
Dreaming of glamour.
Dread of truth.
Staying locked inside.
My own dream world.
Don't make me face reality.
Donate my time to fallacies.
Treating the void of endless rifts.
Noting my verbal irony.
Drowning in my own happiness.
Doubting my own glee.
Usually, I'd...

Voice choked
As if
Someone had
Drained her life

He could feel
Her recent ordeal

Heart beating fast
As if

Drained his life
Out
So many similarities
So much love
Unlike yesterday night
With its
So many dissimilarities
So much...

A Drowned Man
Stark naked reality was a,
thorn in flesh,
for my collective innocence.
A brutal reminder
of war with truth.
