NOSSIS ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS
NOSSIS
There is nothing sweeter than love.
All other delights are secondary.
Thus, I spit out even honey.
This is what Gnossis says:
Whomever Aphrodite does not love,
Is bereft of her roses.
—Nossis translation by Michael R. Burch
Most reverend Hera, the...

Epigram
Only the Moon Understands
No stars tonight, yet eyes transcend towards bright moonlight.
Oh Moon, without words, we converse in lone quiet moonlight.
Angst of two hearts apart, shows in somber persona,
spirit fears her vision will fade with benight moonlight.
Untouched unique...

Lavender and Lace
I awaken to the woodland scent
of a favored fragrant herb.
Its aroma transcends nocturnal bliss
and then softly seeks so gently to kiss
the distant lingerings in my mind.
Of a cherished place where I had laid
embraced warm...

Rivers of Degrading Memory
Once upon a time
I was merely prescient
in genes and blood
and air and water
and other ingestions
and digestions
of our ancestors.
Among these were Elders
who may have stopped along the banks
of the Connecticut and Hudson Rivers
to drink from their...

A Picnic With Pablo Neruda
Four legs quiver
like clumsy cabrioles
striking smooth gray rivers
of zig-zag sidewalk barrios
in rhythm with happy shivers
syncopated on a muffled drum
as we talk and stroll
On our way
hand-in-hand
we persuade and pretend
this day away
taunting and cajoling to demand
laughing “hide...

Rohrbach Cafe
ROHRBACH CAFE
Intimacy.
A place
of shared warmth, an atmosphere of muted shadows and candlelight,
where
emotions, profoundly sincere,
softly glow,
flare,
then wane
until, fully consumed, they are dimmed
and gentled
by intrinsic breezes of serenity.
A cafe
of quiet murmers, hushed revelations
among tables close,
but afar,
where
evening lit...

In the Waves of Words Unspoken
The chill of night crept in from the Rhizophora mangle -
A tropical tree that gave me a shade from the perils of crime
I know nothing about,
Then I moved on to a barren area of...

Asides Within a Last Breath
Three lying deacons
swim in a handbag -
and a lone, celibate pastor
paces longingly bemused.
Michael, the Arc Angel,
poses silently,
in dusty Gabbana drag,
cursing the lipstick-painted laymen
writhing in rancid attar -
naked
and intentionally
unused.
Four wide-eyed boys...

The Spring Longings
Do you like to see the girl singing
Come with me in the swing
Calling us the happy spring
Seated in the fragrantly blooming
Flowers in the cool morning
The falls sparklingly bubbling
The breeze soothingly cuddling
The rivers gurgling and brimming

The canoe awaited for our swift quiet arrival there
Hanging fragrantly in the moist thick hot night air
The aromas of Night Blooming Jasmine lingered
No persons found within our...

Summer Days
I watched the gentle waves lapping the shore
And taste the salty breeze from the ocean air
I saw seagulls flying horizontally without a care,
Spreading their wings in the calm atmosphere.

Imprudent Eagles
There's an inimical solemnity
dissolving the loveliness
of the last day of spring;
I sought solitude and awareness
from the very beginning,
but this farewell won't depart from me!
Along the the shady and dusty road so solitary,
I pick ripe strawberries...

Back the Black and Blue
What do you do
when you're a black cop
at a Back The Blue protest
with a Black Lives Matter
counter-protest
in front of you,
to left and right,
and possibly pursuing your rear

Which direction

Driving down a dirt road one day
I noticed an old home sitting alone

Raspberry Kisses
Raspberry Kisses
Silent kisses throughout the air.
Just like the wild raspberry affair.
Nowhere to know how,
Can they be found!
Now they are here,
Only to me you appear,
Fragrantly simple and sweet,
From your head to your feet,
Melts-in-your-mouth, easy...

Ginger
(Etheree 1)
Red

petals of
sweet, scented hues
gently dripping, long,
slim green and yellow leaf
with softly painted flowers
her amazing beauty glowing
with devilish intrigue and wonder,
stunning, everlasting and infinite

They call her, Ginger, with bright hair ablaze
around her beautiful neck...

The Last of the Wine
The Last of the Wine
When the last of the wine

and the gold wings of eagles,
burnished by time, dismount the sky.
When the velvet hush of eventide
conquers the ebbing splendor of day

Not by the seed but the need to be grown
Fortune may function to fashion your fate

Friendly embraces link two hearts,
Delicately delighting free wills threshold.
Uplifts the soul; then, happiness imparts.
Genteelly accepting goodwill, like gold.
Loves profoundly; no limits transgressed.

Drips with honey; two hearts thrive,...
