Premium Member In the days of wine and roses

In the days of wine and roses
April showers fresh the air 
Garden sculptures change their poses
Streets are leading everywhere
Sun is shining through the curtain
Through the gluey young green leaves
And I’m fairly well ascertain
You’re the reason of all this
On the cloth of glowing satin
Bowl with fruits, and open cage
Magic songbird sings in Latin
Memories of Golden Age
Boats are gliding down the river
Ours is most lazy one
Wings of dragonfly in quiver
Shimmer with reflected sun
We were heading for tomorrow
But we docked at yesterday
Days of joy, and days of sorrow
Built that harbour of pale gray
Home together, here's the bind 
Every morning brings new rose 
Every evening brings new wine
It's exactly what we chose
Home, unreachable for troubles
Garden, always quite the same 
Life’s a boy, who blows fine bubbles
On the picture of Millais.

Premium Member Journey of Life

the struggle within
seems never ending
ego urges spiralling
addictive hypnotic spin

encased in mind body
we identify with its desires
gluey attachments mire
attention in thoughts shoddy

there are two contestants 
left hand corner lust brothel
right hand stands love temple
referee free will innocent 

no excuse as we choose
resonation with any vibration 
perilous is ego association
for both gander and goose

when we get to this knowing
domain external ephemeral 
internal joy of heart eternal
we feel love within blossoming 

there is no shame in indulgence 
earth life is a hard school
teething children tend to drool
in time we align with conscience 

over time the false falls away
we rest in the void of silence
divine entwined in bliss parlance 
our attention ceasing to sway

Premium Member Repeat That Slowly Please

Snowflake dancing on the hot burning sand
A rainbow we can ride
Freedom to choose where we wish to stand
Bliss throbbing inside

Having loosened the gross gluey substance 
That binds & confines 
Polarity rotation a seamless playful parlance 
No sooner we do align

The aspect of us here & now resident in form
In but not of the world
Embracing & imbibing & releasing bliss warm 
In joyous dancing swirl

Essence of presence having void as its centre
In a stillness continuum 
A mist of bliss identityless observes joy canter
Each node a sensorium

Manifested reality reflection as of co-creation
Teasing dance display
Enjoying each pulse whilst averting stagnation 
In joy we gently sway

Master of Camouflage

In the forest, one I saw
Groping down a tree limb
Trembling like an old man
Dressed in a patchwork robe of
Green, gray, yellow and brown

Its colours were like the bark and leaves of the tree
At a glance, it could have been a cluster of
Yellow, brown and green leaves shaking in the wind
With a slow and deliberate gait
Changing colour at will to match the surrounding

The body gives the appearance of being rather compressed
With a pointed ridge along its back
Large eyeball, fused eyelids
Having only a small opening
Through which it looks for its preys

Shooting out its tongue several inches
Picking off insects with great skills
Lying horizontally in the back of its mouth,
A cone-shaped bone; the point forward

At its base, the long hollow tongue is anchored
Long muscles held the tongue
Pleated with accordion bellows
Compressed around the bone

Turning individually, its turret eyes
Within the range, an insect it spots
Powerfully, the long muscle contracts
And held the tongue over the bone
Like a compressed spring
The tip of the slippery bone tightens
And the tongue shoots out

Stuck on the gluey tip, the insect
Its long, limp tongue, slowly drawn in
Like a baby eating noodles
To see it again, a joy to the sight
This great chameleon!

His Muse Is a Mirage

Bongo taut resonance
Cornerless bellydance 
Schedule of edges set adrift
Lured by translucent twirled wrists

Shimmer and shadow juxtaposition 
Ripple wavered rhythm without repetition 
Syrup never cool, pool dissolves all granules
Sip of boiled candy stories make tongues tangle

Sequel came spilled ink
Jellyfish stroke olympic 
Pink stripe whimsy lifts his spirit
Saccharine capsule snaps weak inhibit 

Swallowed by opaque pond, - agile diver 
Gulps willing her glitter silver victimising saliva
Clamped cognition, gluey strawberry chew seduce
Bobbed acidic body embalmed calm in numbing fluid

Deliveries

She was back into my life after a long sejours 
how could I not welcome her at the table 
after so many suns and moons 
Having crossed the oceans of reality, 
my dream was a surreal bizarre reel,   
                   featuring my sister 
sitting at a table ogling whimsical canopies.
She says "I'm hungry," but when it comes time 
to eat, she can't , 
                Large strips of duck tape pasted 
on both mouth and nose. 
"so I could breathe better" was all she says; 
I remember a much younger Lupita,  
telling me she dreamt of midnight chocolates 
wrapped in silver paper 
with blue stars on them.  
It's been six long years since I last saw her 
the silence between us has epoxied   
turning into a gluey exhibit;  
Probably both of us are starving
for mother's homemade milk soup, 
Though mom has been dead for eons, 
like the Divco truck that rattled our glass bottles 
like the memory of father on the balcony  
holding a paintbrush, smelling of tobacco and paint, 

This fantasmal dream of mine has no beginning, 
and certainly no end.
