Sequestration
I never told anyone how my ears reverberate in a silent room.
The whirring drone ever present, a conquistador of my private spaces.
This is my cohabitation with an industrial generator.
But I’ve graduated from the torment.

where skyscrapers pierce the sky
cities bleeding_assoc.

stares into the landscape, tattered, mined;
flickering neon...

War
Whence diplomacy fails mankind.
Soldiers amassed with patriotic duties to fulfill.
Some willing, some underaged, some desperate.
Weaponry and vehicular production overdriven.
Military strategies drafted that await execution.
Prayers flood the heavens, farewell letters penned vigorously.
None prepared for what’s to...

Soldier
We’ve laid down our swords
And hanged up our shields
But the war still rages on in our hearts
We’ve tamed the warhorse
His saddle rests in the stable
But his stride still charges our frontlines
Our trenches buried
A soldier never...

Senile Party
(or, "Your Old Stomping Ground")
There’s a secretary that I know
whose husband recently died
But life somehow continues as before
She has to keep replicating the myth
that everything’s all right –
A savant of the copy machines
A mannequin in...

Up In Smoke
He had a dream
Actually, it was a passion
The dream took him away
To the seas, the sands, the ventures
Beyond this land, onto foreign soil
He had a dream
It was more than a mere illusion
The dream breathed hope...

In only these lives will you feel our eyes

Like the blood seeping through you wounds

Corona Virus
For these are terrible times
COVID 19,
The modern plaque,
The tragedy of our lives
Medical personnel at the frontlines
Armed with rubber gloves and face masks
Battling a virus ravaging the town
And the world at large
Sheltered...

By the sky god from sifted appurtenances.

Behind edifice a disperse of brimming slums
With piles, heaps of filth, debris, decay and stench;
Congestion and the...

Smothered skies of soot sink into raging flames
Torches lift to boundless heavens, blanketing faces with
Autumn air too weary and weighted to breathe
Infuriated fire storm consumes ferociously
Rampant fury creates a stairway to the...

3/27/22
What's going on in the skies?
Sometimes
It all was just lies
People still trying to cut in the bus line
Attempting to sever all blood ties
Occurring behind the scenes or on the frontlines
So much love inside
Struggling, but trying...

they joined together, fought together,
now one will...

Ode
We, Nasty Women
must refuse relegation, obey
only the roar of our own angels, then reshape
breastplates to shield the motherland

We were born to bleed,...

I left home in dreams of battlefield glory,
When Pea flower dot the golden brown cole
In the delicate bloom of late spring.
I cycled to the frontlines,
Wheels whispering of broken prophecies.
The great willow seemed to know me...
