The high perspiration smell from the young couple sitting beside me
caused me to remember the green wood’s in Virginia and the squirrels
chasing each...

This is a rubbish poem!
Since I was old enough to know better,
I was taught not to throw litter.
To scatter rubbish when out and about,
From our local bobby invited a clout.
Out back each house had a...

The bars of my cell are fastened together with the loud barks of combatant's screaming dimwitted noise.   
Discouraging whips scar my will, leaving seared brands of indignation, attempting to disrupt my poise. 
Plagued...

It's absurd to think we're surrounded by love
Children shed tears, malnourished and maltreated,
Men go to war, fight, and die without justice,
Women are dejected by society, bounded by clothes of a prostitute.

 It's absurd to think...

Painted Delilah's, scarlet sirens, apples and bloodshed- 

You tried to teach me to fear the bold obscenities of Red, to be a willing captive within 
conventions of virtue and the expectations that came with my...

Utility bills and hobbies,
Keeps me always busy,
Then we planned happiness,
And freshness to enjoy,
Prospering a day of life.

A waiting for holidays,
What is coming?
Then encouraged to plan,
How shall we celebrate a festival?
Savings minded a belly of saving’s...

Back of my heart I yearn
Even for a glimpse of your shadow returns
It is being long past years since we met last 
I am on one side and you’re on the other the world vast.

Imagine…
A family sitting in a living room; the living room made of sofas and chairs
The sofas told a tale of antiques; never a complexion, even to the brain’s follicles of hair
Her grandfather, and other members...

Longing for fire, with the sun in my hand
though there's nothing I want, I resent the dark void,
Layers of emptiness, lust and demand
as I quest on for something resembling joy.

Awed by the lion, aroused by...

A person who feels about others
And speaks on their circumstances
And offers a better suggesions 
To improve the damped system
To add fundamentalistic solutions
To delete opportunism aspects
To develop everyone’s share
To approach everyone’s contribution
To maintain progress and prosperity

I found myself in a pool of tears
i almost soaked in it,hundreds
of thoughts run so fast like an antelope
to my mind 
I was stupefied when I heard my less good
Damped within inside and my bone...

AN    OLD    FLAME

Her lips were electric, burning to the touch
I hungered for them so much 
In an all-consuming  passion for her 
In a  fire dance leaving no...

How else can a mortal envisage your greatness
if not through the envy of the majestic existence
of the cedar of Lebanon?
Your lofty height is damped in shady foliage
And beautiful branches multiplying with long boughs

Underground springs direct...

Blasted through the arteries of great wide open spaces
like fuel-injected bullets from some laser-sighted gun,
over-priced and deathtrap built, nothing cars to nowhere places,
trailing prisms of bleeding sump oil underneath the cooling sun.

From the money-grubbing fingers...

Up the polished ceiling above my bed
In my bedroom resting for a while,
A camouflaged lizard crawls his webbed feet
With dead silence in his spider tongue
Hunting a fly nearby in languorous mood
So unconscious of to-be catastrophe
Bony...

The music of the night played on a distant beat out of sight.

Sounds echo in the air of broken dreams everywhere.

The stolen kisses in the dark, the secret whispers igniting sparks.

Blame was burning in her eyes,
Flames were screaming out of head,
Tongue was a piece of flash,
But heart was pumping fast.

Body was lying on a bed,
Night was cuddling with her,
Dreams were scattering fast,
But she was helpless...

MY TREE - IT SHALL SURVIVE

Beside the Kinta River still it stands
Colossus of the primal forest panoply
Residing native of the fecund land
It’s limbs supporting graceful arcing canopy
A wondrous teeming aerial village live

salient smile scrunching
punctured physiognomy pulsing
voluptuous chin vying
over mystic memory
with callous contentions
seeped in stupefaction

rusty rubberneck moaning
airy attention fostering
damped dog downbeat

nocturnal ends neighboring
felon results rustling
saucy rebellion smirking

Her dad disembarked;
His monstrous master.

I saw the image of a handsome beast
Something far more beautiful than
Anything I'd ever seen
Something far more irresistible than
Any man I've ever known
He looked at mee and he made my
Heart melt my soul get chills

Chilled wind in the *metro wheezed louder, shattered
The eyes and damped skin.  Thistles and grass blades
washed by gaping teeth and drenched. Haggard,
we were   troubled by piles of birds waylaid.
It is frost moment...
