the windowpane that mirrors the friendly praise
coloring the seals with such sweet appeal
lavender lilacs...

Welcome to a typical 'Luau' spread. The first thing that is best to learn is the Hawaiian word, 'ono', which means, delicious. It's a word bandied about before and after food goes in your mouth....

Oh To Be In Trinidad
Oh, to be in Trinidad
when the hot scented currents flow,
from East Dry River to Nariva
samaan and silk cotton tree grow.
Where whisperin’ palms reach
across island reef and coconut lagoon,

Odyssey From Africa 8b9a
Ch8, cont.
Northward parallel the valley.
And their ridge-top elevation
Gave advantage of perspective
They could see the forest's ending
In the distance. That same evening
Would reveal a stronger reason
For Ipiki's intervention
Something sensed in his...

Back down to the forest clearing

Cosmetic Brain Surgery
his last gasp was quite lengthy
trying to go out with a bang as usual
a rationalist manifesto covering his face
accompanied by a cotton field work song
his grip went slack under the torrent of images

Buhari's Poetical Graphics Representation
All efforts tabled on Nigeria;
Experiencing a fortunate miscarriage,
Feasting Aso rock- a pizzeria
But never admit it is the cause of this age.
Upon the solid manifesto,
That touches all sectors:
Picturing California's Barstow,
To cajole...

Tribute To Harambe, the Gorilla
Harambe, living in captivity-
mock forest of the Cincinnati Zoo,
within our human world, well as can be,
beneath those peering eyes, that visit you.
And what bad fate for you when suddenly,
no fault of yours, a child falls...

Iambic Pentameter
Clans, Ilks and Tartans
Clans, Ilks and Tartans
Woven into threads of red and black,
Girded by grids of white,
Distant plaintive bagpipe memories
Of sunset over Kilmaurs –
A crest that bears a unicorn
Touches royal roots
As a poet’s tribute to a patron lost
Watches...

The Gorge
I saw a gorge, a remote vision from distant, far far away from the surface, how sharp, how precipitous, how deep!
A singular, unsurpassed, cavernous cleft;
a crevice among two gigantic hills, how intense and steep!
The rocky...

Dear Miss Monkey Manners Iii
Dear Miss Monkey Manners, I am writing to you out of desperation,
It seems that I may have a problem with excessive perspiration.

And my...

Nestled In Daydreams
I'm nestled in daydreams, safely tucked in a halcyon haven
away from the stress that greedily feasts on me like a raven
My Utopian realm offers a peaceful kingdom; a sanctuary

A Dewdrop Born In An Early Morning
a dewdrop from a wandering bead
born in somewhere deep and deep in valley
asking the reason why he has to be born
dyed blue
in a moon

and thinking of the meaning of life
looking up at the countless...

The Glasgow Clearances
After the end of World War One
The world said Scotland shipbuilding is done,
No longer would anyone pay their bills
For lowland coal and cotton mills.
Fifty thousand Scots per year
Boarded ships with immigrant fears,
The roaring twenties was...

Thirteen Wasn'T Lucky
Streams are running quickly and the snow’s still on the ground
When lightning strikes the mountains and there’s thunder all around.
It’s raining in the foothills and the water’s coming down.
It’s headed for the city, to the...

Ballad
An English Castle
In a dreary county castle,
a ghost from the past is seen to dwell.
It haunts the castle battlements,
and walks the halls at night.
It walks the halls and moans a sound
that sounds much like the wind.
A whitish...

Deconstruction
Away from the areas of complete ad nauseam
As political cases grasp a zenith of their corium
To utterly saturate the airwaves with information
Each other's obnoxious and feeble description.
I'm fully aware, listening to the unrelenting billow
My musings...

Crossing the White Line
Ebony drunk and burnt rubber sienna swerving,
I crossed the white line ...
And tragically,
with emotional intensity,
word vehicular hit a vanilla-colored human being
My coal senses were belly dulled
by the intoxicating, sepia...

Ragged
All night, wind ragged as rain blew.
And the moon is seen as a squire view.
To be a mentor to the cutting wind.
In the sky, a single moon might askew.
Oh, hurry to the lake in...
