Azure Vistas
"Azure Vistas"
Azure vistas presented themselves to me
rolling inwards the clouds like tumbleweeds
mercilessly bump fallen angels off the map
like torrents of rain falling petulantly on blunt contracts
I glimpsed the sweet refrain of a resurrection
swift upon a...

The Beast of the Cave
When I was young, and adventure routine,
With excitement and newness still unforeseen
I was eager to spread my wings to the world
And seek more adventures as those wings unfurled
Within my long travels I happened to meet
Two...

Test tubes prattling past
along the chrome plated production line.
Glistening under fake fluorescence
humming in harmony
with the magnetic motors
of conveyors, centrifuges and camshafts.

Heart
"Heart"
Deep fissures formed
in the cracks of
the nowhere place
where time leeched
bleeding claret
through the green
veined blues
protean bit by bit
the flesh disappears
prematurely 6ft under
mulch for rebirth
the subcontinent
conscientious conscience
inward reaching
the divine central tableau...

The Secret Lives of Chimney Pots Iv
Pied tidings of suburbian
Magpies,
Squawking and squabbling,
Quarreling ferociously among
Themselves -
Rush to steal
From off the beleaguered bird
tables,
To the annoyance of all concerned,
A much begrudged meal;
Before scurrying away into
Unfrequented woodlands,
Marooned like islands in...

When I Woke Up This Morning
I opened to my internet this morning
to see an icon of a woman
under bannered "News"
And thought it couldn't be important
or it would be a picture
of a white patriarch.
I opened to my weather web
this mourning,
to behold...

The Little Angel
Quenching my thirst
from the river that would flood
I walked inside the green lush
that was still untouched
loner as i was,vagabond they named
devoured whatever i could,my everyday game
marooned and castaway
stealing and scrapping kept the hunger at bay

“Azure blue sky dreamer.
Where you bound today of mystifying days?
Can you hear me through that enigmatic fog?
Your Milky Way incarnate hyper trance phase.”

An Open Shut Case
I was an experienced interior designer, whose specialty was outer doors,
Ever opening to amber sunshine, as petals open, when vivid beams pour.
Functionality and beauty were very vital, so I helped customers each day,
To choose materials,...

Enchantress (Let Me Chisel Talk You) (Part One)
O! Ferocious temptress of the land, sea and air.
Spread not thy leathery wings in fancy flights.
From the generic evolution, into future clones.
Lust raptures into unknown worlds of imagination.
Amazon warrior of deadly desires,
Hold my sword, it...

In the live network of intricate design,
layer on layer my mind was stratified.
Within the strata of innate awareness aligned,
many divergent motifs got unified.
Many attributes of sole distinction

Gothic Nights
My chamber teems with tensions, taut, that logic can’t withstand,
fragmenting mental masonry with memories unplanned,
as bitter tears from hazel eyes reduce the stone to sand.
Dim shadows cast by candles flit across the haunted room,
beleaguer apparitions,...
