Suddenly frisson cold with fright

Suddenly frisson cold with fright...

and tried to summon sense and sensibility

with all my might.

Summer Perdition

after 'Berck-Plage' by Sylvia Plath

(1)

A sheet of glass, this expanse of water.
How its tranquillity mocks my unrest.

Bloated beachballs and balloons
travel the park and float from diminutive hands.

Bodiless voices call in the sun
and bounce off these...

Swan Song

Swan Song

Stealthy killers have crept
Their secret bullet
Reaching this empty nest
Swans too unaware of attack
Arms aimed riffles

Pleasure hunted
Shock
Smile
Blast
Exhilaration
Death

Only one reflection now
No other dark gaze looks back
No other gliding ripples
All reassurance has gone

The lake of desolation
Coaxed her...

On Halloween Night

This old house it creaks all through the night
a most mysterious voice echo's through out
even with the windows closed tight.

I never paid it a lot of attention except on 
Halloween night, when a woman's ghostly
shadow...

Giving their life in battle, never...

The Echo returns not 07-03-25

It’s a cold December afternoon,
Four-thirty, and already dusk is upon us.
We walk side by side, like since forever,
Up the slight incline that takes us to the top of the road,
Shoes scuffling on the tarmac pavement.

A cowboy plays harmonica while others sing and hum
While down by the chuck wagon a lonely guitar does...
