Nostalgic Nights.
The smell of gas in the vintage moped I drove an hour to buy, 
Driving down that small-town street at night,
Lit by the dim bike light on that streetlight-less street.
Mixing gas with oil and...

The world of Expectations

Expectations, do – in all likelihood – become frustrations.
They, in their painful anger, do become manipulations,
of both – both the aching heart and the fragile soul
and of the one’s you seem to...

All the world in fear
the danger's presence near
the evil that we do
is driven by what ever you
want this world to be

And is it you
or is it me
can you tell me where the dividing lines begin
all...

Diva with human touch- for contest



Alighted she from her red limousine
Bedecked in A-line gown, pista green
Till the waist embroidered golden sheen
Satin silk with a halter neckline
Charming face and a vibrant smile!

Preposterous melody won't exist,
Inside a piano without the chord's beat
Aubade is formed when dolefulness emits
Nails the body to where she always sits;
Ordering her fingers to start a writ.

Corners her world with piano as a friend
Heaves...

you never said for a while
salavic eclipse per epilepsy 
test of the taste then a bile

If we were married, the ‘crystal’ mile

Breaking down novels line by line
Translating Shakespeare to Spanish

Dulcet...

Globules exist on the midst of arrival
where seraphim traits flaunt a celestrial worth  
in dynamic shapes blowing sepals from cluster
their transgress to unification and form.
Hint, like a penchant as pleasure disperses,
while chaperoned whispers oblige...

Memory’s Shadow
             by Odin Roark

Their footsteps in sync
Their heartbeats in unison

A Girls Night Out


They were there, the girls,
each attired in appropriate finery,
clashing generational coifs,

varied displays of fine jewelry,
diamonds, gold bracelets, barrettes,
classic stiletto heels, sparkling sneakers

and a well worn, sensible black shoe.
Four beautiful women going out

(this brownarmed girl will sleep
with goodman)

testing the white waters at lunch
she in a blushless
cheesecloth frock
chaperoned by one vased fuchsia forget
me not

coyly sipping cantharis tea

words slipping from breath moistened lips
like fire thirsty moths quenched...
