to a bench I knew with a view.
Seated there was a fine-looking woman
she had the purest white hair.
Sitting at one end unobtrusively, I at the other,
after a time, she turned...

Kaleidoscope Girl

Kaleidoscope Girl

She is made of glass 
of  broken pieces
And shattered fragments
She has jagged edges

And my scars healed 
With drops of her sealed
Embedded forever

Ethereal waves rippling against reality’s framed surface
Of the translucent, as phantom hands press, slamming at
The fragile glass of dualities deadened zone of existence!
A sudden shimmering, in...

Optical delusions, the natives say creatures hide amongst these
Rocky snow covered hills,...

Hey Diddle Riddle

To quantify an equation,
takes more than mere calculation,
Take the sun and moon,

One 8 light minutes from earth,
