Back With Poetry Vengeance
Back with poetry vengeance,
Don’t fear this, Transcendence 
Or from the Abyss?
Elohim’s Prince,
Or a Demonic Word Smith with written myths? 
These flames destroy man’s deceitful tactics and machines,
Once seen……. 
Story Rhymes dreamt and told, 
To the...

Arriving from unknown somewhere

Declared he could cure any disease
Using herbal drugs of plants and trees

Soon to his shop began to rush
Diabetics, rheumatics, asthmatics flooded
None over his...

A Stolen Heart
Dangling and tangling in pain
Blood blowing, chest in vain
Beneath a plant falling  apart
Looking for my stolen heart

Lonely living I am alone
Then I feel, then I hear, then I behold
Voice of Bird from flower bone
As...

Scarecrows
Innocent child,
wake up from your rainbow colored dreams,

it crows the early dawn's burden,

Asides Within a Last Breath
Three lying deacons 
swim in a handbag -
and a lone, celibate pastor 
paces longingly bemused.
Michael, the Arc Angel, 
poses silently,
in dusty Gabbana drag,
cursing the lipstick-painted laymen
writhing in rancid attar -
naked 
and intentionally 
unused.

Four wide-eyed boys...

liquidcopper sheen & skypulp
mashed upon fatrocked banks 
refracted beams;
reflections.
The kid squeal.
The rowers chirp "hello"
[multiple oar-chasm] we bridge it
with a languid arm-sigh tooing, no fro. Yes, 
the 20th century is over,
and the "Water-Noodle" 
has arrived.

"Escalating the Muse"



Written on the body
passive complacence
stretches sharp ink 
etched pain in the soul
then real beauty 
from the 
Book of Truth, 

a page moored
in transparent skin 


;


Black, 
tattooed ceremonially
on the tongue
speaks diaphonous
Freedom

Written on the body

Life
My story goes on as you're still living,
It walks through tunnels,...troting on rails,
This is just how life is made;
Stealing dreams,enslaving humanity and shuttering desires, 
Striking with mischief and disrespect against fallen trees, 
Life is ruling...

Battle of Wits
Of tango I wrote, and how dreadfully a brief one!
Terponei the queen whose loathing was as mine;
Of ignorant readers who eulogize nonsensical poetry
And a good-morning-life destitute of usual tranquility.

With wise words of great magnitude
Sent forth, I speak my mind
I built barricades, lest you leave this behind

To love Physics one just has to care
For the universe heart described there, 
Relativity's Laws
Are much like Santa Claus, 
Einstein's Tensors just floating on air.

He sits only on chairs for the wise

Forget all of the tales that you've heard
