Time Machine

I sometimes wonder about migration, is there a moment when doors are closed and the bus leaves the station
Sorry folks, the country is full.
One of the reasons people from Pakistan and there about

Born in Ireland in eighteen seventy four
He was a remarkably brave explorer
Three times to Antartica he did go
To that barren wilderness of ice and snow.

Once with Captain Scott and twice on his own
And it was...

1.
Mom 
kept the  perch 
we caught in a bucket.

And when we took them home
She would clean and place them
In our twenty gallon tank
Where they bobbed in stunned silence
Eyes watching for any white movement.

Nobody cared

Foremost On My Bucket List?

Yo yo ma...though your absence
doth suddenly cause me woe,
no matter parting with
many bittersweet sorrows
long since consciousness unstrung
more'n fourteen plus years ago,

the last surviving Kuritsky
grim reaper enviously eventually snatched,
outliving demise of my...

Siddharta worked hard for the middle way to appear in silent meditation

Above him a lotus flower shone pure radiance from an indigo moon

Ebb and flow levitated cast in nothingness and droplets of wild motion

I am afraid
of becoming someone
who has no fear

A robotic anomaly ...
given a self-awareness blind spot
Possessing a third eye,

against a force of Nature

If Lust then a brilliant lit
moment;  if by divine...

A Fisherman’s Tale


Out o’gloom, her pale siege comes to menace our humble dwell
I look to celeste fix, yet no stark smile to traverse me
So I grip my girl, now graceful, as she slides in churn...

I had lived on the ice-floe for about a year
My world had become absolutely geometric---
everything within my vision was linear.
And the whiteness had taken me past the point of madness.
Learning the language of the wetness...

Even the ground looks cold.
Your left hand wanders like a rabbit 
nipping for green things in a dreamscape.
It looks like a hermit crab
on an ice floe in a conch shell.

I will just lay here anesthetized.

Ice Floe

The glacial epoch is now part of history
The spectacle of glacier widely seen in the Arctic
A habitat for Arctic mammals and where the trees end
This is the land of the midnight sun

Mourning doves sigh on ice floe clouds
sand dune crickets pierce red dawn shrouds
bull’s-eye squall deluge from on high
on ice floe clouds mourning doves sigh

Vapour trails omen or a sign
grand stream whirls silver mist divine
blackbirds snatch...

These are the stones
that ground nails and sharpened talons,
they have slid under mountains of ice and fire,
have been polished by the glacial dead.

The stones endure now in layers of motion and stillness,
some are wind-tools shaped...

Amid the glare and glitter at this jolliest of seasons there lurks a deep rich human impulse born to halo moons.
Glowing cheek of cherry blossom offspring,
lovingly they tug at universal father figure Santa’s blood red...
