My tears ache, they cry out, reaching for sun beams,
only to find, to feel, - touch nothing - lifeless , empty dreams

Empty Stories
I am told
that I should write
lines that will
a picture make
cold breeze blows
bearing all warmth away
carrying just a whisper
softly to my ears
a distant sound
I can barely hear
somewhere distant
somewhere far away
and I do gaze
looking about
that my eyes...

They all had a face, a name, an identity on this land soiled by negrophobia.
They looked without seeing, their eyes lost in the ruins of their humanity violated...

Come
Come, let us walk this broken street, you and I;
Explore the infamy we share before we die.
After all, will death not seize man's birthright
When this day gives way to night?
Signposts all...

As I Sit At My Table
As I sit at my table
Overlooking the sea
I try not to look for its unforgiving blueness
it is too much for my heart.
My heart which is once again, empty.
Loss has followed my heels
for many years...

Ballad
Under the infinite sky of our destiny, the waves of souls stir
Under the infinite sky of our destiny, the waves of souls stir,
A sea of average spirits, drifting aimlessly on the waters of silence,
Lacking that aristocratic individuality, as demanded by Christ or Buddha or Plato,
Hiding in...

Beneath the stretched-out, nocturnal firmament, thoughts overwhelm my being
Beneath the stretched-out, nocturnal firmament, thoughts overwhelm my being,
Questions unassuaged by answers, echo of the void,
About forests of the future, trees with waiting roots,
About children from untold dreams, with smiles that cannot be found.
Those books...

Between the earth and the

between your skull and your brain
is a Grey matter,
at times I feel like gray matter;
Everyone speaks and recognizes...

Finding Presence
Finding Presence
Night sky beckoning dawn
Gentle sensations
Early morning walks
Empty avenues
Central Park breezes
Village cobblestone streets
Wet with glistening reflections
Accompany the seeker’s every move
Citified whispers
Discordant choruses
The street cleaner
The sliding steel-front security doors
Excited canines straining leashes
Open casements echoing...

Across the ages
There was many changes
During the beginning, middle and end of phases
Above and below any stages
Some left to be found, written upon pages
Leaving a lot or little to if any traces
Among any places
Considered tiny...

Sunday and Not One Car
Sunday and Not One Car
Sunday, in the church parking lot was not one car.
The clouds were overcast and heaven seemed so far.
Looking around confused and wondering, dread struck.
Remembering the rapture, fearing the havoc.
I had tried...

The Darkest Lies
Darkness peeks beneath the shadows
Melancholic doubt, dread
From silent sensation, built by depression
Falling down from up on high
Where there is grace, where there is chance
Darkness drives away the intense hope
Prepares dreams for loss
Erases the innocence from...

I was arriving home one night
The smell of smoke clinging to my shirt
The laughs at the café humming around my ears
The sky above, a homely grey
I looked up at the sky, something I should do...

Us Vs Them
Laying down kindergarten knowledge for all too see
Fish they have fins, and birds they have wings
Standing against the crowd, boasting banners of equality
Daring to discern the difference of things!
You plant a seed into an egg

Suncatcher --Recited
A visitor—
icicle fingers
tapping on my windows' pain—
white blanket in tow
Hurting enough, I paid him no mind
so he kept tap, tap, tapping
‘til cobweb-like cracks appeared:
a final, gentle tap
shatters my windows
My rainbow world
now smothered, pallid,
forced into boredom...

Many times I wonder, many times I think
What if weren't people but rather birds of green
What would really happen when hurt comes into play
Would we burn our feathers and turn in birds of gray?
