Peace In the Nowhere

"Peace in the Nowhere"

Ghosts remain in this place
they read their words 
marked each day on walls
like prayers, it gives them
peace in the nowhere

someplace relevant to go

Ghosts commune in this place
disowned long ago or walked
off the...

Beautiful Halves

You rock me wildly
 To the black rhythms of juju music from the radio;
 Drinking horn in hand.
 Not too drunk to tread
 The course of blue, warmth
 And moaning shadows behind batiste curtain.
 Waves...

Skydive

The excitement starts
The second I wake up
I have the biggest smile ever
Today I am jumping
Today I will fly

My stomach has butterflies
A tea and I’m ready to go
To the skydiving hanger
To my chariot with wings

The tiny...

Secret Cries

My secret cries are my pains I hide, hidden from the world to see. 
Hidden so intense my soul became debility of weakness. 
My heart hinders to collapse and deflates.
Completely of decay, secretly lessen for...

Sock Monster

In the land of laundry, I search high and low,
for missing socks - wondering where do they go?
Each morning, I search for a matching pair,
but they seem to have disappeared into thin air. 

They were...

Lunar Laughs

Dreaming esteeming despite reality’s limitations 
Red rendezvous with you like a blank bank check
Our rainbow love so fluid like confetti celebration
So unique so mystique a heart sparks is blessed 

Your solar smile stays hot wild...

Reggae Ambassador To the Rescue

Walk and talk affection
In conducive tones
That fertilise attention
To concerns affecting real folks and their comfort zones  

Where each critical move you make
Adds to their happiness in tough times
As for them you bake a friendship...

She Aims To End His Fun

In dead of night he sneaked around.
He thought he was a player.
Two steps behind without a sound,
she followed her betrayer.

And this is not a bb gun.
She's gonna curtail all his fun!

While he was using girls...

I Wait

Shadows of yesterday eclipse reality,
but in hope lies my dreams;
mired in doubt and frustration, I'm left waiting.
Waiting for love's elusive touch, indulging in pleasures
that are never enough; always wanting more,
and as fledgling feelings flex
impatient wings;...

Life's New Horizon

In youth's frantic clutches
Addicted to vapid touches
Love children spawned in shaded hutches
Existing on euphoric highs, painless crutches

In middle age, lust morphed into longing
Spent body in static sphere now belonging
Neglected prodigy seeking shelter in availing arms
Licentious,...

You Didn'T Have To Go

You have left me, and so I am untenably hurt;
Broken and bleeding is now my heart.
You’ve left interrupted my beat and flow;
Why did you have to go?


During our sharing last we agreed again we’d meet;
And...

Will You Still Love Me





Will you still love me…when my lustrous black hair your fingers are ever drawn to, 
turns thin and dull and gray?
When that youthful glow and my rosy cheeks wrinkle and my beauty fades?

Will you still...

The Home Team

Brainwaves, restless energy, lighting up the stadium.  Munching
pistachio nuts, hedging my bets on the home team.  Cold skin,
transmitting neural code back to ground zero, to be filed under 
January.   The smallest...

Faking Feelings

Faking feelings is what you do best,
undermining hope with false feelings.
And deceived by lust's many guises,
increased your vulnerability.

Fantasy divides reality
into darkening shades of despair.
And feeling all alone, you struggle,
believing that no one even cares.

Anger fuels...

Lily Pond

Down by the only lily pond around here
the air is brisk and not particularly subtle
as it blows its windy nose.

It's not exactly a Monet painting
the setting is a little too municipal
and certainly not in winter,
but...

Bodysuit

Eye, make up your mind
Undressing me like a windscreen wiper,
Up and down
Until your sprinklers emit a teary drool
Then dressing me up?
Make up your mind
See to your heart’s content
Glued to my perfect composition 
Watch until your...

Making a Daily Living

As the head emerges
from the womb of soil,
brightly declaring its birth
in the scream of birds,
the new day is born,
a life to live to night,
as the body travels in its path,
as the head held high, aloof!
Hiding...

Tired



I am so tired today
All my will and strength
Seems to have leaked away

Seeping from a hole in my left foot
A human skin balloon
I slowly deflate 

I can’t rally my thoughts
