While Daydreaming About Timepiece Inventors

While daydreaming about timepiece inventors...
as the figurative curtain closes on 2022

How arbitrary the assignment
of seconds, minutes, hours,
days, months, years...
to the passage of time,
and I would be hard pressed
to differentiate one moment
from the next without the...

'Twas Naught His Night

Be there the bight of a November drain
turned off tattered ruffles blotted feign
a ledged I removed and tender earlobes
waif yonder spectral possession probes
cracked nut overture eighteenth twelve
emptied shells retiring indicative delve
drain feign earlobes probes twelve...

She

She wailed her way into the world...
An avatar they said, Goddess Lakshmi had taken birth...

Her parents' pride, her brother's delight...
She loved and shone her brightest light...

She smiled she laughed in her radiant sight...
She didn't notice...

The New World

The light is breaking through the dark
Kissing the skin of my pale nudity
I am a creature of the darkness
Knowing not to cover myself
Shameless of the body I have never seen
Pools of water around me glow...

Fury of the Scorned

Fixed atop the crag, she stands with sapphire eyes that pierce the foggy gloom
I toss her raven locks about and whisper softly through the intoxicating silk
Gooseflesh rises on smooth, alabaster flesh as I turn again...

Just Where

JUST WHERE?
By Leon Enriquez


Words in stern cryptic code
Rouse odd map of strange mode
Ink piques dense mother lode


Taste deep allusions here
Ere exile feel endears
Reap sad touch that chokes cheer


Feel the sure glimpse sans time

“Poetry is the language of 
the soul — where deep emotions 
cluster thought and feeling in
a poignant outburst of fond 
rapture — and thus, words 
sublimate in sacred ecstasy
as the vivid imagination conjures

Heartbreak In Seattle

She hides behind her smudged onyx eye liner, 
Lifting her fading, azure eyes off the paper every
so often to glance at his picture.

How she missed him so...constantly thinking of him,
but relying on the photo to...

A Haiku Anthology 03-31-2018

*****************

blemished sky erupts
a waterfall... a  river
the cormorant dived

the mile high eagle
hunting... not gone unnoticed
meercats wary

heavy rain... torrents
one litre... one kilo...
man will make  you pay

wildflower meadow
trampled... flattened by children
educate them now

take my hand... nature

I Reach For You

Fingers tantalize like whispers 
Heated breaths upon supple skin
Dancing in softness parallel to feathers
Aimlessly tossed by the wind

Enticing me with lips as they play 
Like strings drawn with rosined bow
A skillful loving melodic sway
Sung quietly...

The Old Man Mistakes His Home

The Old Man Mistakes His Home


my eyes espy
follow the old man
as he makes his way
into the Taco Bell
my interest wanes of Tacos
piques at the old man's peculiarities
or is mine in question, too?
it's early morning
worms have...

Small Town Fantasies

It makes a heart glad to know 
there are still, small country towns 
like Woodford, where homes 
with large old trees, 
sit scattered between small shops
and local businesses
 
To think the spirit of Elvis exists...

Aha Haiku 16

Calm cooling breeze
Taste of wetness;
Coming rain

~~~~~~~~~


Weekend stay
Home movie marathon;
Makeup treats

~~~~~~~~~


Pet dog circles
Runs round barking;
Mad freedom sings

~~~~~~~~~


Small people here
Body contact flings;
Queer child talk

~~~~~~~~~


Newspaper highlight
Another tragedy;
Far yet near

~~~~~~~~~


I sit here
Waiting on words;
Dry well showing

~~~~~~~~~


The write words
Puzzling long...

When Will She

Can't you hear the call? 
how often
does it seem to you 
that the wonders fall? 
when the stars seem to trickle
spinning 

when will the conflagoration win? 
the wind,
why does it pine for a future so...

Hits and Misses

7/4/16


Got to take care of business
From the start to the finish

Hits and misses
Above below and on the ridges

An unbelievable amount are religious
And superstitious

How much evidence and material lies among the fishes
And in some of the...

A Duck's Dilemma

Sometimes I feel like a duck out of water,
The greener grass is the water when I fly
And the water when I am natant.

My feathers equally ambivalent
My brain benevolently beset
The curious quandary belied by the placidity...

In the Quiet He Sleeps

Darkness abides save flickering candle light
Illuminating his silhouette of masculinity 
exhaustion renders an end tonight
Supplanting all previous antiquity  

In the quiet he sleeps 
Leaning close to steal his breath 
As the wanting piques 
With...

Winter Scene

The most baby blue, two-storied house; baby blue chimney;
and milk-chocolate-brown rooftop. A whimsical triangle pine,
in front and ‘longside the home, seems to be atop a hill,
newly covered in pearl-gray white snow.

Spheres of snow, descending and...

Chinatown

Old roads paved once again,
New patchwork paint meets rain,
New trace of ancient strains.


Old buildings in new bloom,
Urban landscape frames boom,
Old hues in modern gloom.


New patterns in old style,
So many facelifts pile,
Juxtapose such odd smiles.


New ways...

Passing through gildeds secular anathemas open markets 
 
With countless sonorous voices calling from their ravens, hoodoo booths

Wishing to sell everyone these worldly visions amid obscures

Briefly

Brief this light breeze
Gone in a squeeze


Dusk comes so swift
Odd thoughts now sift


Here in the dark
A deep fire sparks


Feel seeks night thrills
As heart moves will


This dance can ace
Sweet comes that race


In surge of strain
Pain speaks...

You Are the Pilot For Boarding School Students

For your prep all time.

Bystander

they fall upon me, each bent on doing harm
I fight them, for what I know now, as my life
kicking, stomping, flailing, smashing
their fury only increased by the affront
of my fruitless attempts to obstruct them
