One Way Ships - Part 2Continued from Part 1
Hungary hounds harangue the highlands,
howl at skies and desert islands…
Below, unfettered carbon crows conceal the parting path she chose
Lighthouse lamps and lanterns lolling…
Mute abandoned fleets are calling…
The shallow shadowed portholes vaunt dim...

A Long WanderingThe darkness is smothering, the stress is raining heavy.
A constant pitter pattering on the roof of my thoughts.
Sinking into the sunken place for the lost.
Where the outcasts and down trodden walk.
Strolling through...

Cerulean Odyssey One, 17-2017
the narrow path took a sudden turn
I pushed the main sail west
where tiny tugs push giant timbers
portside down shivering rivers
to the end of broken islands
and ravens who fall asleep
no more stealing noon day’s sun
havoc on...

What the Hell Are They ThinkingThe grand, half-ruined Parthenon,
once a sublime, Doric grace,
Even now, in broken, stone blocks,
always takes my breath away.
The rich, classical detail,
fluted columns without plinths,
to imagine what it once was,
the mind can’t even begin…
That towering Coliseum,

JellyfishJellyfish! Who could have named you
other than a creature structured
by a cage of bone?
Opaque but transparent
your arrested evolution
lives in an alien perfection.
You abide inside the sea, yet billowing that sea
through your bald, bladder body.

To a Fellow SailorDocked on an opposite shore,
peering through round portholes
as the river who flowed me to different landscapes
slips past, current furious:
not quite a pleasure cruise.
No swimming pools splashing over onto the smooth wood
of a polished deck furnished...

Miss UnsinkableViolet Jessop, threat ahead
Escaping Poseidon’s death toll’s
“Look after this, will you?” He said
She did, counting down the portholes
First the Olympic’s nurse enrolls
Last, the Britannic’s noon code red

Violet Jessop, threat ahead

MermaidsMermaids
I have seen them in
the gray, untimely dusks,
gleefully playing with lost ships
among coral rock,
golden hair tossing about
like mad witches,
as they flit in and out of
barnacled portholes.
They ride on autumn tides
near sun bleached inlets
sailing with north...

The Market Girl's SmileShe bowed her head to the ground,
Focused on the grains of dust,
Her skin glistened in the morning sun,
Sparkling like the rarest opal to be found.
Whenever she rarely raised her crown,
I would look straight into the...

Day becomes day after day

And I let myself go to obscure distances

Those portholes of any face blinking broken at you,
Then tears that crash instead of dropping quietly.
Bursting from injured...
