Long Preludes Poems

To faith communities
and fraternities,
brotherhoods
and sisterhoods
and sororities,
local non-profits
and friendly neighborhoods,
mediators
and counselors,
cooperative associations,

Do not deceive yourselves.
Continuing to gaze and daze 
on a monotonous monocultural path

Disassociating 
internal v external
navel v social

Obamystic Preludes: Things we wish tomorrow for today

Insufficient knowledge 
for comprehensively conserving consciousness
is also more than sufficient ignorance
to liberate comprehensive disease.

Knowledge is not optimally resolved
resonantly revolved
accurately measured
in deductive-reductive information
about lose/lose diseased systems
and win/lose uneased systems;

Moments are not the retinue of time. There is one which

decides the turning point of mankind. I can’t hand over to sighs

Four letters put together to create one word,
with an impeccable definition.

Love...,
It is a strong word,
Close to the heart, yet
far from the woman you Love.

Butterflies flying, flapping their
orange and white wings in the summer heat.
The butterflies...

I.

Rain beats down on the smoky beach,
all paths the gull flies, and in his
resistance.
A thousand white shells in the mist
are seasoned with stinging pepper.
You reconsider
signs, velocities of strummed winds;
of which sand dunes, waves bound, would...

Celebration of Las Animas

The shadows know
When I shout into the void
Of obsession’s chaos that swallows even darkness,
Fractured light in jaundiced eyes,
Where withering blasts of winter hibernate in masquerades,
Promises lay in crumpled thoughts of raging anxieties
To...

So red the rose a crimson divinity 
Thorns sharp cruel dangerous  
Crush the petals so gently, so soft
Thorns are long, how they prick thee

A movable or immovable barrier,
That functions as an entrance-exit carrier;
If, thus, easily the door concept is defined,
We may be, to peripheral spaces, confined...

Do we reflect that the door in its sphere includes,
Dramas of the woods...

When I see in colors
I say Yes
softly or loudly
and usually in-between
depending on our vibrancy together.

When we see in black and white,
we say maybe yes
and perhaps not
and other shades of ambivalent grey.

I cannot see in black

Sitting beneath this pavilions golden crown carved moment ~

Slowly glancing about the crowd; peering into their eyes, their hearts; considering....

Adorned amid such a pretentious cloak!?

Redress this stroke, upon the canvas so brushed

As if the facade...

Securely bound within these the shackles of darkness!?

Before there were rainbows, I roamed ambidextrously,
I streeled out into predawn air, senseless between Moon and Mars,
Reeling under Calvinistic cinder blocks, I hid from my shadows.
