Moods oscillate in cadences of peaks and valleys
Music to fractious emotions on greasy dance floors
Mistimed cues of flares smouldering relationships

Angst of redundancy seethes from within as lava
Anger is camouflaged with the cloak of reticence
Ardour suffocated...

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
In the depth of the night, when the veil of darkness covers the world like a regal...

There is only one inborn error,
And that is the idea that we exist to be happy...
As long as we persist in this primordial mistake,
And even become confirmed in it through optimistic dogmas,
The world seems full...

Second line 7 syllables
Third line 5 syllables

Caught within a snare
The paralyzing peepshow
Seduces you there
(Making itself intimate)
(undressing for your favor)
(Fairydust of lunacy)
Scrolls, parchments, bark, at the moon)
(Self fulfilling prophecy)

When your befuddled mind
Forsakes upon the ragged edge
Of swirling darkness;
Where eternal night awaits
To sate upon purest innocence
Besides an open grave!
When the gravity of your perils
Be foully whispered within
Dismayed
And abject earshot;
Where salvation for despairing souls
Be so...

What is Poetry?

It is a theosophy of thought and commentary;  
transposed euphemisms of life’s temporal moments;
It is an attempt to fractalize single ideas and envelop them
with metaphorical symbols reinterpreted and played with.

It is an...

In the backdrop where the sun had regally retreated, like a knight of the dusk,
The pipe of time smokes memories onto the face of the sky, lamenting in a sigh.
The clouds, scholars of the azure,...

In the silence of my thought, the world slides by - a holy library of signs,
Each book, a life, each page, a destiny woven in time,
We try to read between the endless lines the pathways...

A loaded pistol,
With youthful courage till yesteryear;
Now lies naked and dormant,
And Is found to be lifeless and dead.
Somewhere, buried in my Junkyard,
Playfully tested till now in all arms to shame;
As it shyly, blushes and whispers...

Women, secret priestesses of the soul and undying dream,
Whispering ancestral secrets woven in the threads of destiny,
Knowing men like parchments deciphered under the full moon’s glow,
Understanding every hidden longing, each impenetrable dream, and every unspoken...

Genealogy child
Is much, much more you see
Than names to fill blanks on line, 
Genealogy is your heritage
Of forbears who came from many tracks,
Most to claim an identity of kind
As they made their way along a...

In the twilight of a violet sunset, when my soul dons veils of melancholy,
I sit alone, surrounded by phantasms and unspoken words, whispering ancient incantations,
My verses, silk threads woven from starry tears and lunar sighs,
Rise...

Unable to somehow escape this castle of want

As an apparition endlessly roaming its corridores

From room to room and door to door; up and down its spiral staircase

Looking at the paintings upon the walls, of another...

In a world where we are constantly told how we should do this and that, 
we must learn to thank them for their opinions…but, to listen to our own 
hearts and THINK for ourselves.

Wriggling my way
    across the page
    I thrash about,
lost by perspective and
    challenged to
    summon only
    significant
passions expressing clarity 
    of struggle.

The knowing face of
    immortality proffers
    gracious wisdom
from antiqued parchments to
    reassert with
    fervent hope
more than just meter or instinct
    until I find

A cliche strewn among the notion ‘it will make...

Among the forests of ideas that get lost in dense fogs,
On high cliffs, beliefs carved into the mountain's root,
We stand bound by incantations, by formulas we recite like a litany,
With hearts full of ancient seals,...

Or flag has turned upside down
In distress our nation's found
A one world order at liberties loss
Forgotten the soldiers that paid our freedoms cost
Burning parchments from the past
That held the wisdom of our founding fathers path

In the quiet rooms of the unseen,
Where shadows dance with ancient secrets,
A choreography of reality is woven mysteriously,
Created by unseen hands, the puppeteers of the world,
Threads of truth and illusion, like stars in the night...

As the heavenly host feed the flock
there was one among them who believed
that she was unworthy

The beings in God's firmament
adorned themselves in crystalline white flame
Although there was a separation with an alter
which was for different...
