Long Architectures Poems

The problem of military reactions
to territorial control issues
is not merely that violence breeds further strategic development
of violence,
although this is no small,
nor amoral, 
concern.

This primal problem of militarism by historic default
is that it is an intrinsically...

Anxiety peak's as mundane attention seeks.
Fear and excitement compete as boredom seeps.
This powerful small action is not an option I possess.
My desire to please is within reach, the winner of an underdog's match.
Adrenaline a premature...

You could feel it couldn't you
son who has left the room
mother electricity
the 1,000 bolts
10,000 volts
(not even 27 years could cure)

I give myself over
I fall
and I gladly go
i swan dive
to rock bottom

I will face that stone
I...

Single
The empty space in me
Not the part of this vessel that makes noise
it is the reserved work space
where architectures and engineers gather
where  creative mind and realistic meet
This is where a solid blue print is...

Seasons and Time Travel

The whirring sound travelled again
I always hear it
From afar or just close by
Jarring my senses
Way above I can see the tiny wings
   the blinkers, they seem to tell
I'm flying!
Places I dream of.

On the day you wore my heart a flowering Hat
My mind's wall, dripped away liquid
sorrowful Content that
weighted innately
Inherently

My drenched gray feathers were sprayed speckles of sunlit
Orchestrated by your Poetic heart. You
You use your ink in...

How I changed to all things to suit my need
I even taught my eleven chickens how to swim
Drowning them in my careless blind proceed
To happiness. I had no...

1 My fellow, my friends,
We are gathered in ends
To our formerly path
Of individuality
And each one share now
A lane of their road.

2 Oh, the array
Of trails we display
I view them all,
As gold threads sewed
In the clothing...

She's always there; a watchful, window-sphinx
whose eyes show distances far wider than
the span of concrete gardens growing ink-
like shadows spilled from soles of driven men.

Architectures old and new are tumbled.
Small Japan hit thrice in quick succession.
The bewildered  nation deeply humbled.
Nature pummels with a mad obsession.

Tsunamis take all that is not taken.
Failed nuclear plants spread fear throughout the land.

Vacation
Countdown
Anticipation

Enticing tropical suns
Dreamy azure skies
Caressing warm breezes

Vivacious toe polish
Skimpy sandals
Flimsy sundresses

Colorful cultures
Exotic architectures
Vibrant traditions
Festivals and feasts

Joy and laughter
Leisurely freedom
Lightheartedness
Childlike awe

Feverishly fanatic
Infatuated
Travel Bug
