Maids at the wheel, the weaver at his...

Past the present to a future beset with tech charm.

Caravan of Courtship
Sire she's been sighted
two miles south of Sinai,
our sentinels say she has brought a river,
her baggage train stretches into the ancient sands,
the envoys of her retinue spoke of marvelous gifts,
beasts and creatures of the Orient

Reminiscence of Summer (For Maxine Grace Hylton)

I played in solitude with cuddly clouds
And watched them form changing figures, blight
The sky or bring the sobbing sludge of rain,

Let your bright tears fall in the pool of dew

In an endless night, under the velvet sky, I lose myself in reverie
In an endless night, under the velvet sky, I lose myself in reverie—
A map spread out before my eyes, white as an untouched manuscript,
For those without imagination, an empty place, a desert of meaning,
But for...

Myth
An orphaned paradise where wounded feet
Must hymn the breath which gave it life and light
Despairs for harmonies which subtly meet
In whirlpools where bright genii wake to fight.
Asleep along the foaming shore there lie
Two citadels...

Castles
Castles
Medieval towns, the citadels,
as fortified large ornates fascinate,
Engulfed my flaming true passion
that still echoes inside huge walls,
Sound of glittering brave swords
that took to a cowardly deceit,
Condemned moonlight
as we met used to greet,
Midnight shadows over walls...

Restricted Life
Human life deserves a platform to unfold
Away from straitjackets of pious scrutiny
Whose eyes, ears and hands feel so cold
They reject freedom and project a mutiny
Born from the scorn society pours on freedom
Curtailing every...

I want set fire
To white paper
Make black char into pale pictures of ash
To burn desire
Till the vapor

Though I dream, yet
Still I hunger
Still I hackled shudder with each crack and scream

When Tyrants Tremble

when tyrants tremble
at the fury of those who tremble no more
their veneer of stability seems rotten to the core
when the trembling ones shake off their long-hushed fear
the trembling ones

Atlantis Dreaming
Before the inchoative formation of bygone days, before time's transposing and
infantile sands,
Before the engulfing deluge covered our quixotic shores,
Whence the awakened were dreamers bestriding upon night's fuliginous sands,
Too late did our vaticinators previse...
