Heart

"Heart"  

Deep fissures formed
in the cracks of 
the nowhere place
where time leeched
bleeding claret 
through the green 
veined blues

protean bit by bit

prematurely 6ft under
mulch for rebirth
the subcontinent
conscientious conscience 
inward reaching

the divine central tableau...

Old Man Winter now flagging, and slip sliding along

Old Man Winter now flagging, and slip sliding along...

as his stronghold diminishes.

Signals, triggers, and ushers kickstarting debut
of demure "Flora" who slowly but surely attempts

The Missus Unflagging Crocheting Efforts As Betsy Ross Incarnate

The missus unflagging crocheting efforts as Betsy Ross incarnate

With needle in hand incorporating love

transforming skein of yarn

flowed rich with a poet’s theme.

Alas cold circuits assert their own gleam,

Why don't we discard the mask, let all the stage props fall

Why don't we discard the mask, let all the stage props fall?
The answer, whispered through shadows, is found in our sunlight-forgotten guise.
The true color has washed away in the rains of days, so that we...

A Monastery

The clad ivy charms, warms the walls,
The frontage that welcomes the fold and their outsiders,
Specifying age and strength of delicate beauty, 
Which accounts for that non-existent love: 
History sides with them, is by their shoes,...

Bouquet Of Belonging


A nomad wanders  
in labyrinthine wasteland 
of the denuded life, 
          desolate,
the sinuous dusty track 
takes me  
to the obscure terrain 
of forlorn nowhere.

A Scrappy Little Nest

Flightless, the smallest such bird,
he’s hopping about madly now,
dexterous little feet grab what they can -
he lost his beak decades ago
to a merciless marauder drone –
here, some tiny, thorny little twigs,
there, a footful of leaves...

Desecration of a Grave

“Here lieth baby Rachel
Born 10th Sept 1894 Died 30th Oct 1896”

Marble stone that lays above the head,
white chippings that blanket the body,
flowerless vase that sits naked
crying out for a fragrant moment
if only to perfume its...

They wonder why my soul is intertwined with hers! 
They ponder why my eyes embrace hers!
They ask why I love her as birds love migrating!

Black Widow

She waits,
eight black spindles joined at one end by a pivot, a compass.
Each pinpoint balanced at the intersections
of self-drawn polygons.
Legs jointed like the fingers of a skeleton,
deft, dexterous as a harpist.
Body in two sections with...
