whispering — what if, what if, what if.
We...

PetroglyphsPetroglyphs scattered
All over Hawaii
Carved on black volcanic rocks
Mysterious they are
Stoke human curiosity
Unendingly
Human and other forms
Numbers and writings
Carved by the island’s ancient natives
Long before the Whites entered the scene
No one can gauge
What they truly meant
We are...

one to many times taunting the tempest's ledge

caulked memories to fill the holes of our lives
Your fireflies have brightened...

A Cosmic JokeA design of
never-ending procreation
with genes that in the end
become petroglyphs on walls
or words in wastebaskets.

caves of timelessness
my hands caressing walls of rock

walls that speak loudly
of proud ancestors
immortalizing their

communicating
telling stories
leaving messages
their legacy
much like us
in many ways
yet so very different ...
