Long Fastens Poems

She's not yet a pre-teen.
She is Herself everyday. 
She has no idea that anyone could hate her 
or think she is bad. 
She loves how strong she is
 and shows off her muscles proudly.
She loves...

Here she approaches, dark in complexion…
Exposed majestically in a catwalk,
Principle looking personality considered for deliberation.
Optimistic to achieve the world most valuable models award.
Built from positive cementation and aspiration,
Indeed, her skin proves she`s never coward.

It sees like an eagle into hearts,
The feelings, the blink, the emotions,

Each day we wake up with grace
We know not how the day will end
We walk by death time and time again 
Unaware of our feet in quick sand

Some of us slowly sink in
Unaware we don’t...

I sit under the trees

Later
My neighbor said
“I enjoyed watching you pray.”

“What do you mean?”

“You sat there so still
Head tilted up for a very long time.”

“I suppose so
But actually I was entranced

It spreads a sheet, then fastens lace to all our summer skies
No day sees a wave so high, without thoughts of you...

while nourishments a pot of poisoned love
that in my desperation I consume
cold on the ash of angers fiery words.

The uphill climb, 
rigorously relentless
with ambling ambitions 
and schematic stratagem,
blueprinted blatantly
on the blank 
parchment of mind,
sketched skillfully
with chameleon color shift,
transiently transfixed.

the present instants,
fastens in retrospect

Overlooking
The lake from his cottage deck
Like a captain last to leave his ship
My dad
Discards his cane atop the stairs
Fastens his wobbly hips and knees
Sideways
And to the rickety railing
He Inchworms his wrinkled hands
Across the slivers

Down he...

Whenever the rays of the sun begin to fade,
And the twilight hours and dawn appear,
Whenever the stars begin rushing to queue and ride,
Their skylights’ ships tearing the zephyr,
Your radiant beauty emerges to cover and shade,

She fastens the safety pin 
on her baggy sweater
cold aged hands
turn the wheelchair towards
the broken down tenement
which had been her home
for the past fifteen years

In her pocket is the pink
crumpled eviction notice
that some unfeeling
developer with...

To standard lines, defined by fear.
Defensive words, their anger belled 
By peals of knowledge: Danger near. 

This way of life does not adhere 
To happiness: A life befelled.

I am a broken-winged dove
Held in a soft, black bag
Tied round with a velvet noose.

Reasoning with my sensibilities
He seeks to assure me
All will be well
If I simply stop struggling
And allow him to feed me
Soft, warm...

Red and blue strobes bounce off walls 
pulsing beats in arterial veins of the city.

Radio voices crackle like static in the night, 
overshadows savage growls.

Police K-Nine, Ollie, fastens the wide-eyed 
man in her prow.
