Shiny and Darkened

Today

The Cypriots and Greeks have a few differences,
And can argue a great deal,
But both agree when it comes to ‘Kleftiko”
It has forever been, the most delectable 
Traditional Greek meal,
That ever a bandit...

Premium Member The World Around Us
Awaking blithe each morning,
with eyes upon the World,
I wonder, are we mourning
with ebon flags unfurled –
or are they but a warning,
some draped like snakes and curled,
stray stars and stripes adorning,
sent from the netherworld.

I wander through...

Bolted were windows, locked were doors,
The frequency of death frighteningly soared.
But who was this infant high upon the hill?
He denied the storm and just stood...

The Bleeding Roses
Roses in the garden,

Roses in the world,

Barrened roses,

Roses impearled,

But now roses curled...

 

Peach roses show modesty,

Peach roses show gratitude,

However, they are often insincere...

 

Yellow roses seem to care,

Yellow roses show friendship,

However, they are often joyless...

Is Justice Blind
Is Justice blind?
Or
Has the color of a Browned skinned people been so frequently splashed, 
that it spills into her eyes as it blood soaks her sash?

Does Browned skin

Is Justice really blind?
Or
Is this just...

Celebrating May Day For Them
Lito, a boy of twelve was walking along
An old, broken street of the sun browned, 
Dusts attached, smoke emitting town
Lonely, long way he was passing
Through heat waves, bad odor, 
Horn blaring, noisy, charmless morning,

From time immemorial, seasons revolve
And cosmetic changes take place.

From season to season all creation knows,

What story should I tell?
This is the tale of how the lonely acorn fell
 far from where the mighty oak had stood
