the weightless blue of skies
that are not blue
in any atmosphere,
but closest here...

so clear,
so rarified
the effort leaves...

Cocoon
"Cocoon"
They say...

erased, far behind
the old unaware,
left far behind,
crawls the walls
in its web of lies
spinning suspect
strings of silk
in the air
glistening diamond nets
slick and sticky...

In the silky night, dotted with mysteryIn the silky night, dotted with mystery,
Where the moon's thread weaves shadows on the paths,
The heart, a thin garment, a flash in the ether,
Listens as the time from the hourglass seeps away,
And its rhythm, a...

as other than a one-sided protagonist story,

Spring Break V - Russians On Miami BeachI.
The Fish Crow is an outcast amongst the seagulls
Standing on the hot Miami sand
At the end
Of our rose-colored beach towel
Nodding and blabbing half-heartedly
Nuh-uh nuh-uh
To the lack of crumbs
From us
The stingy blue collar visitors
From freezing old...

Mongolophobia and the Eastern HordeNeither a fable,
Nor a tale,
This is a fact,
A story to tell,
To everyone, female and male.
To generations, younger and frail.
About a threat, a monster from the East,
That struck the world like a beast,
Attacked Europe...

Hidden BeautyHidden beauty resides not in the grace like charms
Of coy smiles
Painted across a gentle Madonnas face.
Nor is she vested within the chastened vows
Of saintly knights; encased Great-Helm:
Thus maketh the pale maidens meek pulse

Delayed flight and low juice

The Voice of My AncestorsEvery morning
When I glance into the mirror
I look deep inside
Deeper than my subtly-thinning hair
Deeper than my raven beard
Deeper than my mocha complexion
Laden with marks
Of life's wear and tear
And high cheek bones
I see multitudes
From across...
