Comparison Between Byron and Me On Francesca
I was pushed to write this comparison after reading the poem on Byron by the souper poet Gary Bateman.
Wandering on internet I found the Byron's version of Francesca's words in CANTO V of Dante's Hell...

Take me to the tombstone
let me touch the gray stone that stands
where life could not

What happened to your breath baby brother,

London
Shoreditch clung to its ruin
Its roughhewn gate staring out at corpses
And the clutch of travellers heading from the fields,
The shepherds rambling onwards,
The herders with their slow-moving cattle, hoofs
Thudding on the stones. Amongst them the knights...

Paolo and Francesca V Canto Divine Comedy Translation
After I just heard my guide in this trip
Speaking of ancient women and of knights,
Pity I felt, then had loss to outstrip.
I began: “Poet , desire now me incites
To speak with those two going...

HALLS OF AMENTI 2
Doom dark in the
Halls of Amenti
whole families are

covers shut tight

not a single orange

They grope along hold

Lost Love Deliria - Part 2
Part 2
4th Delirium: Lost Souls
Sunken cities , pilgrims peering.. gawking,
squinting eyeballs, blazing sun
Janus facing, shepherds chasing.. stalking,
friends embrace before they shun
Tearooms steaming, tumult teeming.. talking,
lovers listen, poets pun
Broken stones unanchored, quaking.. rocking,
slipping, falling, one...

Songs of Suppression
Celebratory stories of devotion to depression
are told not only in absence of light,
hiding,
but also in excess of dark,
fearing.
And yet we share an even less spoken silence
blanching out
in too many minor key inferior choices,
quieter voiceless chaos.

Winter 2010a
Seasons have changed their weathered cycles here
A frigid frost frolics on dead dry air.
Old man winter is summoned now so soon
It is a cranky world and a coatless moon
And through it shivering the homeless roam

Availing Love
Sterile ducts with just a trace
Of fleeting mist at moist base
Passionate reserves saving grace
Digging deep to find some solace
Eyes like telescopic lenses refract the availing light
Alluring images swagger near then purposely slight
Radiant beams refocus my...

First Light In the Star Fields
A stone in the backyard,
roughly cratered like the moon,
a black stone
heavy with ancient cinders –
fire chipped.
Could it be a meteorite
or maybe a bit of cold star-fire?
It’s so very old,
utterly lost
even though
it is...

I have some fruit trees in my backyard.
Cooler dawns we ripely say hello, sweet
and sour occasions~ the lemons you know.
With a little cooperation, fertilizer, a bit
more water when dry, I find mostly sand can

Beyond the Veil
Sacral veil that shrouds bright hopes, dark fears
Screening altar that christens so deep a bond
Scrolled with the innocence of carefree years
Sacrificial shutter signifying all self-serving interests will abscond
Separating from the corporeal ties that correspond
Shade shielding...

Risk and Riot
Cold choice, listen to the voice!
Waver filleth all!
He who suffers Sin annoys?
Blanching light, thy pall.
Hated minutes of each day!
Flickering in time!
Doubt belies all disarray!
Drop and drop, O dime!
Slickened hatchet, cudgel black!
Blood along the back!
Stuff the...

No truer truths can take me too far from here

Torn from within an inner sepulcher once caked with fear
Made truer now by old offences now found few

Summer Rain
Summer rain from darkened clouds pouring
Like the windows of heaven have opened
After the blasting heat, so welcomed, adoring,
Waves of hell from Satan’s seething broken,
No lightning striking, no thunderous booming
A gentle, steady rain like a mother’s...

Sublime 2
Now nowhere near
Dazzle dream dear
Oops options oil
Boom blanching boils
Prize pretty pace
Symbols steer space

Feel flashy fest
Rich ripples rouse
Bright blessings browse

Touch tensile truth
Ply puzzle proof
Use umpteen urge
Seek spiral surge
Voice vibrant verge

Infamous Hero
A somnolent trilogy of Greek hubris
Hero journeys into infernal abyss
Blinded by salty pride and avarice
Seeping into Poseidon's lair, nothing amiss
Swept along by steely reserve, prowess
Bounded by fate and drifting malice
Flooded by trials, providential interstice
Curdled by...

Awakening
The snow drifts to the ground
soft as babies breath
talcing the bottom of the farmer field.
The bows of barren maples brace
for the downy white.
Heat held in the asphalt
melts the first dusting,
its ashen countenance blanching, sullen
as the...

Mirthless Cries
Every night I lay here alone,
remembering; wailing.
I love the night shadows:
it’s all about the stillness.
There are no stars out tonight,
only a lonely, empty sky.
The hue-less wind passes,
and it cries un-seen.
Trembling elm trees nod at the...
