Yesterday's Pain Still Fresh

The smell of fresh paint lingers in my nose, in the air.

90 Years Younger
As my old eyes search for the setting sun,
My mind is at work,
Mending the million fragmented memories.

Premium Member Green Spanish Eyes - Part 2
Continued from Part 1
Ah Consuela! I’m watching the vertigo veiling her green Spanish eyes,
while the drumbeat pounds, droning, the rhythm sounds, moaning,
                 of jungles Jamaican entwined
in the valleys concealing the vineyards revealing
                 the vaults in...

Transmutation

As the peacock-sage 
waves of whimsical peace
faded in silence's 
pale watercolors, 
I masked my 
eerie eyelashes, 
with drifting 
angel-mist smog. 
For, I sensed the

Unwary
Awoken by sudden flashes of painted bricks slipping into my skin
I hid inside the newly bare nail beds
chewing on carbon copies of myself 
my teeth clicked

scrubbing the rythm and blues desk 
iron blood

This dread disease that has afflicted my home, 
This malady, this plague on my house;
This making convertible the former quaintness and provincialism thereof 
Into something wholly despicable and disgustingly homogeneous,
Yclept "cosmopolitanism," and "worldliness," and "globalization,"...

Who Am I
Who Am I?


An answer so simple, yet so complex,
Not the reaction one normally expects.
“I am Jason”, but what does that mean?
To truly understand, I must go behind the scenes.

I was 10 years old and becoming...

Her scent wafts alongside her and sinks into my heart;
For I have become fixated, by a desire for her touch.
She was glorious and overpowering, from the very start;
I am hooked and addicted to...

Two Side of You, Two Sides of Me
There's two sides to you
A lady and woman
They both have their perks
But not much in common

There's the meek and the humble
And the spirit that's free
One who likes refined men
And then men like me

One likes the...

Portrait of Summer
Hand in hand, we walk along.
Flicker up the sand.
Amidst the soft light of summer's evening silhouette,
The sky stack with images of a beautiful portrait.

Colourful sunset over the sea.
Landscape canvas acrylic and mystique 
awakening the degree...
