Hours and days and seasons
degenerating apartisan tipsy laughter,
seeding deep-rooted disrespect
and highest and phattest co-arising Presence

For those unconditionally warm
and wet
and indigenously wild
and sacredly wise Selectors 
who actually might be clever 
enough to know win/win personal Presence...

Conflict
 
The priest ran
Scared to raise 
An ignorant army

On a darkling plain
Loading guns
With dummy

Faith. The froth
Rose arrogantly
In the test

Tube.  They heard
Eyes shut and saw
Ears plugged,

Contorted faces
Expecting the explosion
Any moment.

Slowly
Very slowly the froth
Spilled over

Leaving behind—would

Dangerous trend indeed,

A safety check is the need,

We can't ignore and proceed,

This was a monstrous deed,

Hearts of all severely bleed,

To save children I plead,

A happy life, they must lead

We must work with top speed,

Minds of...

WHIRLPOOLS

You were born
Into broad daylight
Tears of joy and fragrance,
Of tender love-
Flowing to my veins, your soft skin
Anointing a life time fulfilment.
You swam on all fours
Lisping in my lap.
A bout of fever, you lay still
Shuddered as...

Deep solace lingers on between the pauses
of your lisping words--- a quest for normalcy
amidst the yells never heard by moonless eves,
by  cathartic drawls  never felt by anyone
except me... holding those mottled palms

The face that launched a thousand dredgers loomed above,
With tin-foil hair and bucket rusting smile,
Proclaimed with tongue of carbon paper endless love,
Fingers crossed behind her back awhile.

And as she rocked and rolled, let loose a...

the causes i have lost
ever think the clouds
are hiding something
unfelt from birth
bounced around by atoms
grounded to beneath the ground
down
beaten like a beg
with no

Hero to nuns
ashamed suns
ending just befor

gin in a gin ring
unnoticedly unnotice a

Saffron coated dreams
rolled into mind,
clouding all 
and touching nothing,
lisping to entice
promising to feel


Sapphire nights
at windows edge,
in shadow 
I saw you pass,
starting,
at a familiar curve of face
my heart paused
and contracted
speeding to tremble,
my chest on fire
But,
it was...

Single sexy stuttering simple sue,
Loved lean laughing lisping Lou,
She spoke softly slow sentences,
Lou lisped loud without pretences!

Often were out on romantic dates,
By heart and mind such good mates,
Joked and laughed their whole time,
Spoke in stutters...

I’m stuttering on this facile analogy      
Like I’m tripping on dubious morality
I’m lisping on my plain quizzicality 
Like I’m limping on roads to tonality
I’m damaged.
A marred good with no return...
