SOLUTIONIST:
This is ANDERSON WALKINGSHOES... 
VERSE 1:
Drenched soul placed on a bench,
Avengers revenging not ready to repent;
Edge of grudges they always entrench,
Dreading of fate, that's what they depend.
Trends and hypes risen from their wrench;
Pitching and hitching...

Bombarded by myriads of daily data without cease,
I suggest a forthright discourse on this topic,
carousel of trend and sound adherence  merely looming?
some unwitting sentiment  an aspirational diction,
reverberation or innuendo pending aftermath augur,

Should we invite the neighbors over for dinner?
Their politics so different from ours.
All the more reason. Combat anomie!
He's worried the town's losing population
but opposes immigration. I like immigrants
but hate passing people on my morning walk.

How Does One Break the Cycle, Part I
I have seen it slowly coming,
and I do not know what to do,
a slow but steady erosion
in the world’s average IQ.
It started back in the nineties,
a slow but steady drip since then,
decline in mental fortitude
amongst...

What will they do with Grandma, now that she is old?
No longer able to fend for herself, by her home-help they've been told
She's always been there for her children but...

Coping With the Unknown
I fancy that I am competent  
To write on the theme of fear—
Only because I have spent much of my life in fear
 And thus seem to know the emotion inside out!

Now, coping with...

Last night I met an old boxer in an alley of cardboard; he seemed glad to see me, 
shouted me over for a fight, I told him ‘Hey mate, I’m not in your league’ 
‘Young...

Our granddaughter’s playing soccer again…she’s the goalie on her team
and in some ways as I watch her…it’s like I’m reliving a dream….

You see I grew up thinking I was an athlete…what other conclusion could I...

Neighborly Distances
From a neighborly distance, the drama of a life's finality unfolded
A man named Mient. Once a well-known construction-scientist
When we became neighbors at Christmas he was a double amputee
Both legs taken by diabetes, then a man...

Changing the World
Among its existing old leaves of the mango tree
Arrived fresh flowers in early February

At dawn everyday
Bare gay soles at walk felt tiny granules
A pleasurable scent greeted them on their way

Soon little mangoes came out
Tiny green...

A Mismatch For My Charm
In the streets of Nairobi
Is a hopeless place to find love

I walked with a rather slow pace
As I rummaged my eyes perplexingly through the parade of display windows
Every commodity on display seemed of excellent quality...

The letter had come in the morning mail,
and the neat writing on it made me pale;
the return address a complete surprise,
there were sudden tears falling from my eyes;
his signature written-   so...

Premium Member I couldn’t talk about it so I wrote a poem
At first we assumed everyone feels just the way we do
Being the light of Self in singularity present here in duality 
Bilocating breath by breath between form and formlessness 
Mind empty of concepts, heart detached...

Promise of Love
Was that real?? 
I raised my head and saw
A flower peach in color 
Real and breathing 
Yes, she was real

I looked her in the eyes
Her hands twinged in mine
My sight turned towards the ground
A shadow...

growls subside upon revelation 
does your countenance veil mine?

still full of sorrow, though drawn in
indisputably realised in your embrace

bomber jacket, dark glasses 
blown out hair,
faded jeans that fit me slim,
brown leather belt and shoes,
a dangling cigarette between lips,

Reality is something else,
and what I look is more like this…

Mismatched Me
Smeared it in pure black hate,
Until it was completely covered. 
A black heart engulfed me,
Only telling me to destroy, destroy.

Without realizing my ugliness,
I felt at ease.

A long time ago, I once loved this world.

Between Mis-Match!

Between challenged and away, 
Punished at a throw,

Between rules and ruthless 
Pain and pathetic 
wishes and delivers 
Between watch and mis-match 
your eyes burn away.. 
only find ends of streets...
