Long Reclaims Poems

Once,
or twice, 
maybe thrice,
surely not
not fractal

A clan of crazy ecofeminists
conspired within an 88 unit residential castle
in their historically converted 
sometimes hysterically clueless condo
colonial-red predative brick 
badly bald aging building

With a sometimes soggy south walled school,

India (Original Poem)

I hear much joy in the music,
View elation in the dance
Feel happiness in the laughter,
Soulful spirit in poetic romance.

I feel love in the language
Swelling in my heart.
Reverence for God and Goddess
In beloved families...

What of "Free-Will," of which the prophets foretold?
A cruel little lie, bore of simple human design,
are our minds even capable, of the power to choose?
Or, are we blind sheep, being herded by the flock,

Gnarled and twisted, gangly, forlorn,
the mirror encompasses the product of scorn.
A large withered beast, the scourge of the earth,
stands in view of himself without mirth.

Heavy of heart he's been forced into exile,
once a renowned litigator...

God, are you sending Earth an electron avalanche?
Was supplying sun’s particles part of Creation’s goal?
Is insulation why we have such a cold snowy North Pole?
Is there a light cycle, scientists’ least explored branch?

The suns’ fiery...

Immediate terror.

As consciousness reclaims you,
You are brought into an even more pressing darkness.

You are alone.

The silence that surrounds you is deafening.
For one eternal moment it alone is your captor.
Until you remember how to breathe.
It is...

the prayer:
Quickened once, this seed uncrucified reclaims
Against the dessication of faith in my drought
And root dry tortures of decomposing doubt,
Against it all, a sudden impulse in the kernel flames
Thanks to my Divine Intervener, sweet love...

Blessing 

A blessing is more 
Than some words on a page
Or to follow a sneeze
Or break a leg for the stage 

It's more than just sentiment
It is conscious decision
To send love and kindness
With a purpose...

Sailing through the endless pages, I let myself be carried by the breath of destiny of fragile heroes.

with the sands of Kiawah Island, grains glistening like scattered stars,
each a tiny sunburst caught in the curl of the earth.
We danced under the great blue...

In dreams of yonder, wishes wistfully conceive,
A cradle of lost tomorrows, where shadows sway;
To a realm unseen, where hearts believe,
Past where twilight’s lulling lullabies lay,
A world where reverie and reality secretly play.

Through the veil of...

Assorted spring flowers, naked, rise in morning sun
Breaking through a thin blanket of snow, earth spun.

Across the sunbaked plains, a hush descends so deep,
A million eyes turn skyward, secrets the heavens keep.
The moon, a silent dancer, steals the sun's golden rays,
And day surrenders softly, to a cosmic ballet.

WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN

At first, he, smells her sweet perfume, eyes curves,
long bashful lashes, smiling eyes, red lips.
