On way back from a country tour were we,
A leisurely long trip—my kin and me,
And met a quaint character on the train,
As I recall, in...

The Sales Lady
Descending into a mega-mall, the fluorescence blemishes my skin.
There is a twinge in my temples as I approach the makeup counter,
meeting eyes with a woman whose shoes pierce my gait
and whose artificially white teeth...

A Dark Fairy Tale
There once was a princess
so beautiful,
That all those who beheld her
Wanted her hand forever
There was, at this time,
A White Knight
In shining armor
(save a few tarnish spots
he'd somehow overlooked)
Who roamed the land
Seeking justice and true love
Unbeknownst...

Darling,
I thought a thought.

With acquired skills often very bold...
as a philosopher once foretold,
I write my essay on friendship, kind of brief,

Liberty
Freedom to display one’s unwashed teeth
Exhibiting the whole thirty-two,
Even as others with anger seethe
And the keenest insults on one rain, too.

Before it’s public discovery
Or befriending some consoling circus
And waiting for...

The Calliope's Song
We open scene, a moonless dream
Ensconced in night held safe from light
And yet a mind of the keenest kind
Tells tales that tower of daylight hours:
With fleetest foot and fur of soot
The cat runs on,...

Exploring the Quite Woods
Nobody can discover anything
that's hidden in the quite woods
of the striking wilderness:
if adventure and curiosity limit
our perception to fully discover it
with the keenest senses:
it can make us marvel at the loveliness.

Falsity
Fittingly hallowed gods must intrinsic majesty hold.
Even before deities invoked weigh the caller's case,
The deity's potent title should alone spell the balm,
And tint with nourishing grace the supplicant's face.
Woe justly betides gods modelled by...

And yet the luckiest, by far,

Kendrick, king of kinetic kinesis,
Kaleidoscopic knowledge knits keenest.
Kindled by Compton's kinetic flame,
Keen verses vie for victory, acclaim.4

Keeps a killing calmness under knit sheets.
Kicks, knuckles, knockouts off his...

Lord,
I've asked not from you, the fastest steed.
Nor desire I to possess the keenest eye.
Nor do I seek, from life, an easy, meaningless, course
Wherein, that I, upon my labor, might get...

Choice morsels sate all men's starved pangs;
Brilliant sights of plenty charm every eye right,
And friends against foes for shinier spoils fight.

A Winter Night
The keenest winter wind so shrilly whistled
In the night;
The fire in the fireplace flared and fizzled,
Giving light
Through the wailing winter night.
Within the cabin all was warm and cozy
In the night;
The children's cheeks were glowing red...
