Proud anonymous troglodytes 
forerunners of mine
confronted threats less horrific
than forty fifth commander in chief
of United States of America.

He/him (matted hair, ratty, scrawny, 
and tetchy ugly villain)   
scurried into dark...

A celestial being formed of stardust *

Circle and Cycles

Stillness feels deep here in these halls;
Silent vistas offer relief;
Death brings sure sleep at curtain call;
Cold agendas in grief's sad brief.

Long passageways and rows and rows;
Lonely sailings to unknown shores;
The dead don't say what yonder...

Wanting What You Cannot Have



           
You are the dusk that masquerades as first light.
In the stillness of descending twilight,
your spellbinder's expectorant 
opens the passageways of the feeble, 
weevles like...

The Fog Creeps Slowly

Fog enters a nature walk without invitation;
Creating a rhythmic step as a new sensation.
The fog creeps slowly along on tiptoes of dew,
Hushed in the after dawn, leaving behind no clue.
It appears out of nowhere like...

Should I remain afraid or bow down to its embrace

Would it be written as wrong to study a person's...

If you wish we can sit together and talk of ancient wounds

An Immigrants Tale

the steamer vomited us out
then wallowed into a smug stillness.

We migrants stood 
to be led somewhere, anywhere
slowly we disembarked, disorganized 
and straggling,
lingering on the dock for leadership,
for welcoming hands,
we were examined,...

Fixed sturdy upon Nature’s ties
Once shiny rails

The Architect

Look around you!
See, the now is everwhere
as spirits fly from flesh
bent over drafting tables,
sharing vision with the last
of Wright's apprentices.  
What messages will flow
across the global plain?
What secret sinews celebrate
their isolation from millenia
of boxes...

of rooms

cling to memory

Ode To An Evening Stroll

Fancy a trip down memory lane somewhere
Through the corridors of time and space that steer
Fond passageways to remember our affair...

Here we go now, you and I, my lover dear:
Waltz hand in hand under the evening...
