Pequot River Land Trust

Once,
or twice, 
maybe thrice,
surely not
not fractal

A clan of crazy ecofeminists
conspired within an 88 unit residential castle
in their historically converted 
sometimes hysterically clueless condo
colonial-red predative brick 
badly bald aging building

With a sometimes soggy south walled school,
but...

Used To Go To This Bar

Red light, the neon beer sign on the distant wall reflects off the long expanse of polished bar top, overpowering the quiet brown wood. It’s after lunch, only a few people in to stir the...

In the heart of the country, a veil of mystery and melancholy floats

In the heart of the country, a veil of mystery and melancholy floats,
And threading along the leaf of life, these methods seem a sinister symphony.
Open borders, and immigration comes like an underground current,
On the paths...

Quiet Soul

Quiet Soul

1963
Her skin is that of alabaster. Wide circles of red rouge pronounced her thin lips and each cheek.
She is soulfully unique.
Her hair of dried stalk was approving to her eyes of vacuous emeralds.
She traveled...

Lucky Escape With My Princess

I will never forget my ex wife telling me that

... everything was wrong and everything was my fault ...

My world broke into two pieces or...

Looking For the Traces of Vanished Light

He searches in the shady sides,
traces of vanished light,
a drift of the felt,
all of nuances and transitions.

Perhaps is it too early;
cold dawn maintains suspended
the pulsation of the heart,
spreading the ashes,
incomprehension of lack,
in the slow progress...

Ongoing Mental De-Evolution

Anyone can write…
 and drown in their self-delusions; 
 from persons into personifications
 lists of passions, glorify self's illusions; 
 down those lists, 
 most veiled by incomprehension
 one's passion is most often expressed
 as...

Love unveils us from borrowed faces

Love unveils us from borrowed faces,
It tears them away, fear and longing, from the depths of our defeated chests.
I call it here "love," not just an anchor between shores of intertwined pulses,
But as a being...

To Those That Don't Understand - continued part 2

(continued from Part 1)


..To those that don't comprehend

No accident or by default
- WHY the world is; 
or has become insane, 
Inevitably of course 
we see that, 
There IS a Group to Blame, 
All bewildered commentary...

Before Awareness

Before awareness and perception
There was only formless form
A silent singularity
Known as the  'Atman'  
Of existence
Or ONE - likened to the eye
That cannot see itself.

Entity endogenous
Searching out duality
Conflict primed contrarian
Allows a comprehension

Knowledge
Without purpose
Of the...

The Breakup

Waiting. The minutes groan arduously.
Somehow, perhaps – my heart fails to beat
with the rush of your momentary attention.
Perched precariously on spikes
Flesh colored, yet artificial – 
Manikin fingers, fidgeting.
Mournfully drenched in factious apology.
Our eyes meet briefly,...

Swelling With Pride

This is a breezy and starry night,
with no strange sounds to induce its mystery;
lingering with sadness is the loneliest heart
opening the pages of an unfinished diary...
as I sit alone drinking my bitter wine,
but it should...

Tsunami

A word of which I’ve rarely heard
Has happened half-way round my world
'Twixt Christmas and the coming year
The news comes through of terror and fear

Deep within the ocean bed
A mass of water formed overhead
Speeding fast toward...

Life is a Song

In the same town, in the same house,
two brothers were born
in a nice and calm countryside
where roses had no thorns.

In the same place, this morn,
two twins received this fife
to whistle ad-lib notes
for this unknown melody,...

To the Nameless Soldier

To the Nameless Soldier

Your orders may come now...

...or at 19h45 this evening.

'Shoot to kill'
'Engage the enemy'
'Hold the line'
'Break up the gathering'

'Ready, aim, fire'

but you have felt too

the stab of hunger
the bite of thirst
the bayonet of...

A Wandering Soul In Exile

My youth was too brief
and whenever I felt distraught, 
I clutched my belief:
to give faith a defined worth;
free, but not truly liberated
as a wandering soul in exile:
reminding itself of how it inwardly bled
amid thoughts that...

Exploration of the Crucifixion

I love you, Daddy.
Sunshining walks, wooshing bike rides, coldly splashing summer games.
Sweet singing me to sleep
Wraped in the bear hug of your love—
Smile, I’m your little girl.

I am you:
I have your eyes, your thoughts.
The tears...

Descartes' Rule of Signs

I. Noise in an empty hallway:
My old leather shoes protest as I hurry down the linoleum tiles
Like I'm wearing a little piece of history older than I am.

II. Headlights on a dark road:
Speeding down narrow...

Conscience of a God

Looking back on life, as I go forward
tripping over, what’s missing, 

Not love or loss, a divine exclusive experience,
Contentment mere blissful contentment 
baby suckling at mother’s teats,

Blind by ignorance now I see it,
aloof of desire,...

It's So Hard To Say Goodbye

Holding on to the memories
that never fades away.
On that dreadful day,
It never crossed
my mind that this
would be our last
conversation and
the ending of yours.

So many unanswered
questions has left
me in a state of depression,
confusion, and incomprehension.
How could...

Midnight Thoughts

Tears mixed, 
Doubtful thoughts, 
Mutual incomprehension, 
Mess, 
Jealousy, 
Possession,
Delirium, 
Panic, 
Blockage, 
Fear of letting go, 
Not wanting to listen even if we do we are not really listening
Repetitive errors, 
Talking nonsense,
Wanting to go, wanting to...

Ineluctable

under this gray suburban sky
if my heart will be made of stone
I swear, it will be pumice stone
 it will float
over resentment and disaffection
over boredom and illusion
over anger and incomprehension
over discrimination.....

if my heart will be...
