epic one-day opera
folding into Northern Autumn yet again unfolding.
Who would I choose to harvest
yet again this day?
one...

Lathered and lathed and laved in my own shiny sweat;

In the iliac region in which its...

Georgie
His was a pudgy boyish countenance,
With rounded river eyes and an Alfalfa smile.
He wheezed like a sick tern with repeated asthma attacks,
Playing hard at the various outdoor games and chases,
Of our fleeting childhood years...

Every time I touch your lips with mine
When you shine your radiant light

When I used to dream for someone
Like you

A Sorry Sight
Woke up this morning feeling fine,
looked in the mirror at this body of mine,
Said to myself, you're such a disgrace,

Get out there, get some exercise,
Said I'm...

Commander Clarke's Heart
Silhouettes ceased the day of pain.
They stooped over twisted remains
Of burnt bodies and of charred skin
Over Grounders, arrows, knives and kin.
And tears soaked the blackened soil
As Princess searched for abandoned Royal.
And a heart beat on...

Upon arrival into our teacher training college
To baptize him. His pride in quick order I did decimate
Taking him at high celerity on a binge
Initiating him into traditional beer

History and the Recent Times: the Truth Unveiled
Writhe 'bound thousand of centuries
Drawn in a thin sheet of paper
Within its palm, destined, fated
The endless flow, our memories

Beneath the Blues
Candle was center staged
A Candlelight Romance perspired
Flame lit up beautiful faces
Flame, ruthlessly pierced with rushing Nicotine
Lovers Love drowned in the Sea of Smoke
Passionate kiss became oblivious
The burnt lips cried in vain
Only Pungency of Ashes,...

Perspired with pertinacity to bring up their progenies cozily,
Indescribably fondled them to make them smile forever !
Built brick by brick their dreams about their off springs,
Hoped they would be cared in their twilight existence...

Stories Heard and Told
Why does stepping into another's well-told story
fade away my own?
Until I glance away from screen
or page
or exterior speaking voice?
What if my unmediated life,
unwritten and unplayed
with untold anonymity,
were the entirety of my actual spiritual journey?
While all...

Forgotten Words

when you know your words
never reach quite deep enough—
fail again to plumb prosaic depths
and render speechless those of

But now and then I’ve managed,
when struck with...
