Respond to beauty with pure elation 
Instead of chronic devastation

O' poets switch off all senses but one
as you enter this arena of aroma
as I nose out the world's perfumes

once upon a time there was a handsome dude

made water into wine and then walked upon it

Claim the Skies Back
Eastern Alleppo, weighed down like a ghetto
Destroyed like Navaho

Forcing unnecessary segregations of nation upon...

Muted indigo wafting through the...

Twisting and writhing
Ruffling leaves as she passed
S-curves and U-shapes
Propelled her 
Past the crumbling daylight
Into the absence of sun

It’s terminal….the Big C has struck

Despite these prickly heartdart lyrics, man voraciously yearns for a glint of hope

Marching to the drummers beat; of Yankee Doodle Dandy; 
While on a float of stars and stripes; our uncle throws his candy.
With promises obligatory; and request for contributions;

There is no difference,
the saints whisper and every enemy and ally
wake to forever’s difference,
that neither knee nor tongue will deny.

Doubt bit into Innocence and sold
the first coffins wrapped in pride.
Creation became a seed – a...

   When Time sails into it's last port,
