...a tribute to Hermann Hesse and his novel 'Narziss Und Goldmund.'


Two friends in early childhood when their lives were worry free,
each pursued his own direction to fulfill his destiny.
One was tempted by the devil to...

Once upon a time holly loosely based 
upon a true story 

There was a man who shall be called

A true Hero in every sense of the word

Or so we all we're...

Twisting and writhing
Ruffling leaves as she passed
S-curves and U-shapes
Propelled her 
Past the crumbling daylight
Into the absence of sun
Tar and pitch
Where nothing was to be seen

She sank down on her belly, 
Licked the air, thought about...

Framed by Greed

A festooned and fractured peacock
More than just his tailored suit
But no less than the material made of

Caricature of broken records
He repeats the same different song
In bland and blithered platitudes

Fat millions counted in pennies
With...

Apprenticed to enamoring aviary, Love's cerebral chords to refine
To interpret the alluring tones in each, captivating line
Overhead, a snow white dove in the pure light doth shine
Innocent libido's inhibitions to illumine
On silted ground, turtle doves...

poetically fractured retractions
   gnashing night prayers, 
scribbling braille,
     written sideways

Some day the inconsequential may find itself revealed

Dare to walk this plateau of significant insignificance 
this mind of indifferent
and apply such a steadfast mitigated circus
in clogged up self-ingratiated opinions

Better that every servant serves their purpose
and...

Nature did not understand me, 
When it produced me, 
But I am understood by nature,  
By life’s processes and behaviours, 
Thoroughly admired and integrated, 
Almost ingratiated, 
Unable to complain or dig, 
Standing amazed at the...

THE CHANGING WORLD

The age of chivalry and bravery has ended

That of sophistry, rivalry, upon us descended

Those with ability, to charm and talk, are commended

They are now indeed enemies, whom we once befriended

Where has all the...

March against the rule of guns
March in favour of human life in tonnes
Inscribed in the Book of Life
Although lobbyists promote societal strife. 

March against the insensitivity of politicians
Bought by lobbyists, propped up by machinegun magicians
Whose...

He had a great conflict and fight
And his soul was the main site
Heart fell in love from the first sight
As her magic ingratiated it so right

Heart wants this love to grow
As a pine tree covered...

Balance of time slights the recurring vigil
Country's pride gleans the depleting residual
Annual tears water the artifices above manicured ground
Unextinguished pyre of tinseled youth still seethes 'neath clodded mound
The drum roll of spent days serenade each,...

Nuptials wrung from ingratiated hand
Purloined hope dripping from each strand
Pristine fibers with leased value you did brand
Quilted folds of ivory now your treasured contraband
Bleached residual your selfish honor did demand
With sinewy clutches my graceful cusps...
