Ledger of Love

In the dim-lit chambers of the Victorian home,
Resides a wife, her heart a silent tome.
Once, love’s flame burned bright within her breast,
But now a thin whisp, a ghostly jest.

Her gaze averts from her...

hoping the perfect beginning will come to me.

The room you're in, whilst large in size,...

Oh, my brother..
I can see storms causing havoc in your eyes.
All you can do is stare,
seeking comfort from a tombstone.

Beautiful marble cannot reach out to you,
nor can it hold your hand.
Tell me who will wipe...

It might be poem number one
Or just story number one
May be I don`t really know,

Bucket List-
When you really think about it, in depth, what is this thing we call Life? Is it a person living, a soul, a body?

I watch you shyly from behind the curtains
Every single fragrant night
Confidently, you roam the sky
Leaving a trace of stars so bright
I love the miracles you bring to life
Sequins hanging in the sky
So I can melt...

Just see
How fearlessly
Sunshine is seated
On the  gravestone

And the caring breeze
Whispering to the loneliness
So absolute
Beneath the tombstone

A paleolithic stone
A meaningless silence
Guarding utterly alone
The desiccating non-existence

Here lies she
Neither sad nor happy
Decaying gingerly
Enriching the earth

Are all doors...

blood soaked canvas is the final image 
mass murderers, the greatest genocide

I am a thread unraveling,
A song fading in the wind.
A paper boat on an endless sea,
Folding under waves I can’t control.
I am vulnerable,
Glass stretched thin,
Waiting for the shatter.

I break
More often than I dare to admit.
I...

The Artist


I need a Muse.  
Do you think it could be you?
Can you pick up a paint brush 
And show me what you can do?


I need a painter of portraits;
To fill in the gaps...

In my waking hours and in my sleep
Nightmares and worst fears

Aye, what a revolution in red and orange against the
venom of society and culture
With the flowers of right palm though a gesture of dance
in fact covers her tears
A story of blue tension and deep emotion...

She was buried in Spring . . . 
when green buds were bursting forth,
and the wind was a gentle whisper
and the squirrels and chipmunks played.

Now, the snow has fallen soft and pure,
and he recalls her...
