On reflection, a shining  mirror lays my core ethos bear,
inkling etched on mien can’t escape deep probing,
tilted jaw, gleaming eyes, vivacious aspect,
express an ardent quest for exponential flourish,
in this life of mine, and its...

It is the magic held within the darkness, the whispering of the night winds,
Echoing through haunted graveyards, cast are thus ancient spells, illuminated
Beneath the harvest full moon, in this eerie landscape the underworld is 
Released,...

Just now I took a minute to myself
reflecting it's going well
re-step well if I'm a belt
I'm holding up but my former self
in stealth hiding in my shadow so now I'm mystealth
a worn version like an...

dressed in a fantastical dress with  two dappled wings of lace,     
she shone like the midnight sun;

THE BLUE MOON

Shimmer does it not this inspirational ivory opal,
Lightly dinted with a thin sheen of aquatic blue,
Illuminations elliptical transparent veil, a drapery
Suspended by heavens orbiting web called gravity!
Shingles tacked in by star nails, fastened...

I saw you last week by the river, right?

Oh, I couldn't say.

It was you alright. You were staring up at the sky. You were muttering about the clouds.

Yes, that was me. The clouds trouble me.

Oh,...

Murder was the show
And Monday was the goal
Mid night, 
strangers passing by
The scene is set, 
So I gaze at the moon
Call me moon gazer,
Following my foot steps
To Hiding in the forests  
All for Gathering...

I'm listening to soft music through earplugs,
the strong stimuli of relaxation enter lungs... 
they stifle the external sounds 
and deepen my consciousness.

The invariant analogy
between time and clock has a steady
rhythm and ticks enough to frighten...

So long to countless long stem red roses, blue irises, star gazer lilies, lavender orchids and yellow tulips, and cleaning up petals days after they’re given…

Goodbye to months that added up to years at a...

These three magic rocks, I hold tight in my hand
Rolling them over, now, what could I plan?
Leave my reality? A new opportunity?
How should I use them? The power they hold...
Can they take me away, as...

A gracious silver silhouette
For a mirage, a solemn bet
I shall pull on strings with invisible fingers
For a feeling that forever in the land lingers

A declaration of utmost infatuation
Romance, the name of the situation
Sitting on my...

THE SPIRIT KNOWS

I charge you, men puffed with knowledge
Who try to discern and struggle to predict
The attitude, character and true personality of God
Withdraw into your shells in shame
For how long will you guess in vain?

My dear little parrot,Rosette is her name,
I cannot sweep her out of my memory,
Time heals wounds but not this one,
This one is too deep to be healed.
Huum!It`s painful,how do I write this?

Urban jungle roosters,
born-again scarecrow,
to untutored city eyes,
tawny pipit stonewall  nester,
jet black Inca dove bereft,
of dovetail on a croque monsieur,
idle bone grub crawl,
mother hen to sandy brown,
and velvet bill gazer,
from an nearby creak,
recent rural migrant...

Last night was tough
Last night was cruel
Last night was much affliction
Last night was no renewel

Up and working late
Avoiding any focus
As thoughts of you took over
Took me low as crocus

I felt like breaking down
But in the...

Beneath the dam St. Vitus swam
Till he settled upon a bar
Where heaven's light reflected bright
In eyes fixed upon a star
No move he made, or mind he paid
When minnows gently kissed
Good night to him, who couldn't...

I am…
Son, sculpted by my mother to be what I am today
Husband, holding my wife’s caring hands all the way
Father, in lonely nest, all the chicks have flown away
Friend of chosen ones, at ease with...

He gazes out the window, thinking of his man
The one who left with kisses and bruises;
The one who stole his everything
Before selling it all out 
For fear, for acceptance, for a little slice of 'normal',
That...

Is this the foothold you sought
  when love decayed and left you wanting?
Avenged in miniscule degrees, each vindicated
moment a trivial gilded victory...
The stars align in nonsensical patterns
incouraging this gazer to find 
fascination in fabricated...
