The Plagues of Our Day
The blind man waited,
at the intersection, for someone
to help him cross the busy boulevard...
and he was accustomed to live in twilight,
fumbling for a hand on his right;
and he finally found mine!
Judge humanly...not pettily,
you could...

Jordan
Miss Jordan —
Are you satisfied?
Living in a world
Where hopes and efforts never collide,
Where all abide by someone else's design.

One In a Million
Hither flows an isolated yet drowning droplet,
With a glistening shield concealing its gloomy core.
Straying across its share of triumphs and misery,
Within its own little sea world,
hoping to not be bruised when the ghastly wind whirls.

Down and Out In Saigon
Down and Out in Saigon
Southeast Asia, and Mexico

A certain type of westerner
The down and out
On a down word spiral
Why?
Relatively cheap to live
Lots of part-time gigs

Shadows of trees and windowpane move slowly across the wooden floors.
I watch as the shadows envelop the sorrows of my broken heart, and still no comfort.
