i g n o r a n c e,
a contagious disease
turning specks of stars to stones,
burning bridges of life,
locked with names
engraved in gold and glitter,
leaving a s k y of sorrow
filled with ashes,
singing haunting lullabies
to the grieving galaxies,
as if there is no
space in the city of the clueless,
where walls are painted
with black diamond tears.
O watercolor forests,
where the moon sails above
trees of tranquility~
every raven has a nest to rest
when cold is the wintry eye,
roaming through dark alleys
where twilight sighs,
reverberates, and colors rise,
awakening hibernating rivers~
free-flowing like fine wine.
and here I weave
heartbeats with herbs of h o p e,
longing to waltz through
a sphere that sees
beyond
skin and i n k ...
You and I,
letting go of foolishness,
no longer spectators of actors,
dressed for a
carnival of chaos.
I am not your
defined nightmare,
echoing paranoia.
I am the silhouette of sunsets,
shaped in clover green,
signs of p e a c e.
I serenade for the weak,
with lyrics of love
amidst a choir of integrity.
see me as I am~
I am more than
the tale within narratives
you’ve long been taught…
illuminate your eclipsed soul
with sparks of
c o m p a s s i o n,
erasing egoistic stains
pulsating within veins of vanity,
for I breathe lilac and lavender,
drizzling from a lantern-filled horizon,
like jasmine raindrops
t w i r l i n g and s w i r l i n g
in tune to the rose rhapsody
of symphonic serenity.
Yet
silence
is the dialect
that speaks~
to sins that dwell within insensitive soils,
pushing roots to
s w e l l
in musical delirium.
-Quarantine of the Soul-
Tranquil pills fall deep like the night
A sweet fangless course
Bites with no remorse
Your eyes struggle to read my ageless soul
Lost
Dark
You open a heart under Quarantine
The past
The present
The future
Stand in the way of what was and never will be
A contagious disease
I call "LOVE!"
(Past-- you came)
Somewhere deep inside --with you--
The Maverick
The Majestic
The Arriving Vessel of Light
I separated myself from the world
--to be with you--
I polished a new diamond night
With pleasures of meeting where our hearts began
Deep like the night, you woke my sleepless soul
Removing it from the safe harbor of the sea
-Isolated from all to see
No risk or chance, of smiling endlessly
(Present-- you set)
Tonight you fell from Mandalay
You spoke in a way that Cut my throat with truth
You detained my ego clouding the auspices sky
Allowing a smile
A tender peek into your heart
It spread in ways -- I wanted more
I kept deep until you found your way past the door
Persistent memories
In search of eternity
Tonight lets learn to live again
With no fear, I remove all labels
Making the moon and sun rise together
My love, my life now depends on you
(Future-- you left)
With no explanation
The age of Quarantine will forever set
You came to me
Set me free
Just to leave
Now you are a virus --- Just like them!!!

Rapacious Itch
It felt things coming,
The undeniable bottom feeder reality,
Where thought had no credulity,
Where irrational emoting ruled,
Void of mind’s prep,
Blind of light’s revealing purpose.
Such remained
This well-rehearsed and produced
Pulp life infestation.
It remembered…
Once many clambered to the marble steps,
Where dreams born of teachings
Promised delivery of reward.
But today…
All that is found
Is perpetuation of schoolyard practices,
Where bullying,
Mocking,
And “my dick is bigger than your dick” war-cries
Intimidate life’s playground with slippery slopes.
Down 5th Avenue,
Up Park Avenue,
The viral contaminants parlay their wears,
A far more contagious disease than Ebola.
And it knows…
Unlike a possible cure for a biological virus,
This consumerism equation seems without solution,
Given little of non-material worth remains
Visible on the species’ blackboard mess.
Today’s squirming parade of absence
Is dominated by the pounding of urban-warrior chests,
Of Armani jackets atop unlaced “made-to-look-raunchy” boots,
Ken Doll fantasies courting the strut of Barbie Doll dreams
Clicking attention with stiletto heels
Beneath ripped shorter than short-short insecurity.
On it spreads,
Past the Wall Street reviewing stands,
Where unlike the fickle nature of society’s infection,
Market makers understand a fever’s ups and downs,
Vulnerability’s capricious norm endorsing today’s
Debauchery fashion to Trump-taste,
Loudness to drown out worthy music,
Shock to shatter the true awe of discovery,
And the drowning of excellence
As it continues its desperate clinging,
All while mediocrity’s narcissistic sell-off
Creates another closing-bell windfall.
The pestilence holds firm its lock on discernment’s immune system,
Mutating daily into a mind-shrinking captivity,
A synaptic virulence rapidly rendering this once simple discomfort
Into an insatiable itch that will never realize its pursuit of “Ah!”.
A poisoned mind..
Venom poured and trickled through..
Wounded by rituals thrust upon me.
Intoxication of your madness..
Betrayed effortlessly..
A deceitful cunning environment..
Contagious disease of insanity..
Lies along with false pretenses..
As you claim an undying love
For you use love in the name of fear..
Usage of fear mongering a constant routine
A predator you are..
Stalking on it's prey..
I am your prey
Not your undying love..
A venomous snake spreads toxins..
Underhandedly..
You swam under water..
I swam above water..
Above and beyond..
You had given me the kiss of death..
I had turned away..
Whole heartedly..
As I breathe the breath of life..
The breath of life I am..
When you chose to lay your weapon down,
I was baffled;
we had fought for what's felt like a millennia
Killing our brothers like savages--
rabid with a contagious disease
"Slaughter thy enemy!"
But, we're all the same
Fighting the noble cause
"Justice for all!"
Murder
Yes, we know
Nothing is just Black
Nothing is just White
What happened to the Gray?
When did I become my own enemy
When you chose to lay your weapon down,
I was relieved;
no longer are you a moving target, just one to the heart
Seeing you, so close
Is this what your family saw?
I want--
I have to look away from such a sight
We're only pretending to know, to be good;
"I am not the Bad Guy!"
They said it too
What makes us so different--
the right words
When you chose to lay your weapon down,
I was scared;
what did that mean for me?
Killing the Bad Guy-- a Human,
where is the "Good" in me
Falling to my knees,
I dare not look up
What Hero am I giving up like this
How could you have blinded yourself as to not see;
too much Black, too much White
Ignoring the Gray
There are no Heroes in this story
I arrived early today for the appointment made months ago,
And began the interminable wait to see the medico.
When I checked in it was already half-past noon.
The nurse said, "Take a seat and we'll be with you soon!"
The room was full of people in every kind of condition.
I thought, "Lord! Have mercy! Deliver me from this perdition!
While waiting I'll surely contract a contagious disease I fear,
And be much worse off than when I arrived in here!"
I thumbed through time-worn magazines dating from nineteen fifty-three,
And stared with glazed eyes at unctuous soap operas on TV.
Swallowed stale coffee by the liter from a styrofoam cup,
Not so patiently waiting for my name to be called up!
I tried to snooze but that soon became a sad delusion,
With rowdy kids and constant babble - just too much confusion.
The little old lady next to me told of her every pain and ache,
As I lent a compassionate ear, striving to stay awake!
I was almost tempted to order in a scrumptious pizza pie.
My stomach was growling and suppertime was drawing nigh.
When at last the nurse in all her puffery before me did loom,
And finally ushered me into the harried doctor's examining room!

The facts of life, O birds and bees,
how getting aroused, can trigger a sneeze,
Weird as it seems, science explains,
this behavior’s no contagious disease,
Apparently nasal erectile tissue,
caused this quirk during evolution,
Was used to discern erotic pheromones,
isn’t that a nice upstanding resolution,
Autonomic reflex gets overloaded,
in which we have no control,
If you have a secret admirer,
an Achoo! could betray their goal,
Now I’ve opened Pandora’s box,
let the cat out of the bag,
Instead of social distancing,
sneezes might encourage a shack,
This poem has some side effects,
even strange permutations,
God bless you! never be the same again,
could construe carnal allegations,
Strange this evolutionary mixup,
is still embedded in our genes,
Contemporary signals of interest,
usually belay bulging jeans,
I’m going out on a limb here,
for better no definitely worse,
Did we humans in our primeval past,
grunt prelingual dirty words,
So many questions surround,
basic instincts of procreation,
Least of which erogenous zones,
are open to interpretation,
Like whispering sweet nothings,
a turn on, in each other’s ears,
Call out the ex’s name by mistake,
your lusty night might end in tears,
So if dressing up like Snow White,
and think someones getting sleazy,
Take it easy on the small guy,
he may just be acting out sneezy.

PTSD…an invisible illness that people may not know,
An illness that anytime the victim could blow,
But nobody cares and compassion hasn’t show,
Because only few can understand….
Others discerned as if a contagious disease,
They try to mock the poor victims and they tease,
Cracking up is not an excuse for them to please,
Because only few can understand…
Who can tell that a person with PTSD is a monster?
Isn’t too harsh for you to judge them and better yet foster?
Why not listen to their sentiments to make them stronger?
…That’s because only few can understand…
You have no idea the agony and hell they’ve been through,
That in their entire life they’re fighting demons to drew,
Their angers killing them, but people never knew,
Because only few can understand…
You are not upright nor perfect for them to degrade,
Hence, you should help them and not to evade,
You shouldn't bully them like nobody or played,
Because I know, only few can understand…
COVID-19 a contagious disease
inherited from SARS-COV-2 borne
a new killer disease, called coronavirus.
Weak immune system, a havoc to your
frail body, exposure can kill anybody.
Quarantine, I’m afraid they’ll force, if I didn’t
cancel my flight to Japan, to meet my
Gogyoshi Master Taro Aizu san this coming
March 10, hoping,won’t offend, to cancel by
choice due to pleading voice and pandemic panic.
Cancelling flights a toil, for some airlines, who
don’t care, the money you paid, will fade.Not a
penny reimburse, for traveling expenses was not
properly address. Spending 19 hundred dollars,
a dread and hard to tread, to recover the bread.
The tranquil pills fall deep into the night, like a dreamless enveloping sleep,
a sweet path without fangs that silently bite, without regrets,
your eyes strive to read my ageless and lost soul,
dark, you open a heart in unseen quarantine,
past, present, and future stand like shadows in the way of what was,
a contagious disease I desperately call "LOVE!",
in the past, you came like a deep dream within me, with you,
untamed and grand, a vessel of light arriving on forgotten lands,
I separated from the world just to be with you in silence,
I polished a diamond night shining in the dark,
with the pleasures of meeting where our hearts began to beat,
deep as the night, you awakened my soul from its quiet sleep,
you drew it from the safe shelter of the sea, isolated from all eyes,
without risks or chances to smile endlessly under the starry sky,
in the present, you spoke truths that cut my throat,
you held back my ego that shadowed the clear sky with question marks,
allowing a smile, a tender glance into your embracing heart,
it spread in ways I desired more than I knew,
I kept the depth until you found your way through the door of my soul,
persistent memories seeking eternity in the shadows of time,
tonight let us learn to live again without fear,
removing all the labels that kept us captive,
making the moon and sun rise together in the sky of love,
my love, my life now depends on you like a dream,
in the future, you left without explanations, leaving an immense void,
the era of quarantine will forever remain in the soul,
you came to me, set me free only to leave in silence,
now you are a virus spreading like a shadow of the past.
