I watched stars, as around me wound
the night like a shroud disturbed by wind,
and I wonder which will be first to bow,
that wretched wolf who takes moons lead,
or maiden alone with a single tear -

Gray matter subjected to accumulate
incessant overall slack heavily larded
earlier in marriage, viz Zison clan
evicted Harris family,
whose hardship unemployment did exacerbate,
neither me nor birth mother worked

both this sir, and mum mate
afflicted with psychological disability
where physiological torture...

Dawn, asleep at this hour
Chilled air is a gift
in the grip of summer


Landscape’s fresh silence
Moon, half blind
The traveling breeze
is a caravan


‘Come, naked and shivering, 
says Lake, 
dig through the mud for that
which is Truth, where...

It made me so sad
when you told me
that you cut your 
wrists.

And it was made so much 
worse when
you rolled your sleeves
down and showed me
both of them.

"Sorry to change the
subject, but I have
to ask: what...

My turn
Empathetically I listen
And I do not even judge
Though the nonsense you’re explaining
Really doesn’t sway me much
But I still refrain from speaking
My face remains expressionless
As I calmly wait with patience
’Till you’re done telling your mess
And...

Pink hues gesticulate undaunted,
interdiction resonating...doleful hearts
secretly abiding drained of purpose.

Pink mothers, daughters, neighbors dispelling
myths, clinging holistically, while vomitus
refutes breaths of life.

Pink secrets resound mercilessly,
relentless conjecture, demonized fables
secreting venomous depression.

Pink vows tirelessly march for cures;
enduring rain,...

you stand content many arms unfolded
what is it
that you show
to one who’s heart has been heavily molded
by those who have smirked mocked oft times scolded

your wiry breadth expansive green and lush
the whisper there
spins a tale

What is the difference between a dream and an obsession? Or can they be the same? They seem to blend in some areas. Dreams can be held inside, while others guess if there's any dream...

I win your heart, your kickass ticking time bomb
I played it fair, no clubs, but love in spades
Feel I'll explode, but outwardly I seem calm
You, diamond queen, with me, jack of all trades

I sail your...

Weird world evolves,
Weird creatures
Wired to gadgets
Evolve.

They articulate 
And gesticulate.
They giggle 
And tread
On the trajectories of living.

Their brains brim
With artificial intelligence,
They act like humans.
They are 
The artificial humans.

Technology savvy humans 
Reconstruct our humanity,
The religionists 
Resign to...

The poverty of self- loathing 

The of the cloak of poetry I once wore
does not protect me against my insecurity
the fear of being destitute.
Nowhere to hide when the northwesterly blows
and happy people dance at a...

"To my left,
I suddenly see a woman.
I can see her to this day,
and shall never forget it.
She carries a bundle in her arms. 
It is a baby. 
She runs, she falls, 
and the child flies...

At any rate
    Don't hesitate.
    Just concentrate,
    Wait for the gate
    To operate.
    Then trust in fate
