Into almost total darkness
Just a pair of flick’ring candles
Led them to an inner circle
 
At its center was a platform 
Where a single chair was mounted 
At an...

King Ptolemy the Second (cont.)

Sleek of line for speedy sailing 
It was rugged in construction 
Several layers of well cured timber
Lined the hull and bridge and gunwales 
 
There were four great masts with mainsails

As we waited for Venus to 
Cross the face of the Sun

People from all over the township
Came together like in the days
When nature was the focus
And center of every ones life

When the sun was the...

Each butterscotch morning I drove to work, and toiled until red sundown.

The observatory was the place I loved, keeping watch on our nearest star;

Volga – 4

to the homoeopathy phial
standing on the traffic-island 
why it appears 
within her womb
the number of germinated nights
stolen without a kiss
is too little

is then it true 
if all the chanting of Harinam
can’t be withdrawn...

Keys rattle,
door slowly closes ...
An echo of footsteps walk upstairs..

You can hear his bedroom door close,
a little bump as he sits on his bed,
then there is just nothing..

They think he is angry,
raging at the world,

The signal to leave is called out urgently.
Blue jays spin, whistle, and gurgle.
Heralds of the gray days of winter.

We climb Hawk Ridge Observatory hill.
The rough benches, wooden table, a simple tabernacle.
It’s a late summer day,

One kazillion million miles away
Far off in a distant galaxy 
Is the most fascinating phenomenon
It is a star making machine
Berthed from a vast expanse of gaseous matter

thinning out the rank suspect crowd?
Who gassed death in the air bleed,
releasing an odor murder most foul?

Islam Burning


In deep purple flame
Stapled to the cross
While the peasants yell below
Demon demon demon
Black flags rise
Hearts fail to beat
Humanity has lost this score
The axe swings in the air
Freedom at last
From Islam’s beasts
My head tumbles into...

Out of its axis
In negative spin
Our planet we call earth
Is diminishing

Three days earlier
A comet struck home
From the black of the universe
On its trajectory roam

The world as normal
Went about its day
Parents worked
While their children played
 
We...

The people were obsessed with stars that in night sky they would see

For in the stars lied the key

The Child and the Dancer

 See the dancing of the child,
I think he's angry out of step and wild.
He finds it hard to see the snail,
The intense wails overshadowed rails. 

Winds that are flocking near...
