Don'T I Belong
Hidden though unsought
Ran from myself
Still got caught.

And yet I insist to ungently reside
Within the "desperate to love or to be" walls of my own heart.
Most continue to disrespect my...

Ante La Presencia

Entre manos el oro se hace sal y agua
Mientras una luna de bendiciones

flip a coin
two sides to every coin

twisted by the pain

Tales told, and evils sold
A penchant for vengeance
Minded by spite, and grounded in...

Hoping you would be a winner.
I only used a quid I found,
But I could have spent it
On something wiser.

Should I become a miser?
Stupid lottery ticket!

There's No Place Like Home
I adore our beautiful island
in the middle of the Irish Sea.
And since we've entered lockdown,
there’s no other place I’d rather be.

and my lovely little...

O Fortuna
Do we come upon a time
in life,
only to find ourselves, again,
drifting, in and out?
And then, perhaps, find a door...
that may have been there
all the while...
in the midst, thereof?
And do we contemplate some power,
greater than...

His hands are folded softly in his lap
To better handle troubles bearing down.
Fortuna comes, but will she pause to rap,
To offer balm or ease a troubled frown?
To better handle troubles bearing down,

grasping at ghosts
phantoms of fantasies
mocking me maliciously
