Premium Member 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...

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

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...

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,
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...

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,...

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...

The news comes through of terror and fear

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

Premium Member 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

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...

Premium Member 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.

Descartes' Rule of Signs

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.

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,

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...

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...

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.....
