A Journeyman
A Journeyman
Prologue and Epitaph:
I am the fool, the jester, clown, a harlequin, charade, façade of many
shades and colours, mascara over broken fragments, dead and gone
1) Megalomaniac charlatan, lost in destruction, finding the path, the touch,
the miracle...

Dramatic Monologue
Statements Man Opposed Upon This Earth In This Plane Or In Ones Mind
Statements
With hesitation, trepidation, caution, I dance softly
to the music, the sounds of interrelationships, step lightly
upon the dance floor of relationships, of commitment,
- that dance of souls to different drummers that doth rent –
as we...

Along the Harbor
It was 29° (f) degrees this morning with a waning gibbous (¾) moon. Still, as we started our run, it was dark enough that the world was rendered in black and white. Lisa was a...

Caracas, In a Nutshell
While the U.S. Delta aircraft lands,
moving toward Simon Bolivar Airport,
humidity assaults me like my own tropical country;
people like Venezolanos and other walks of life,
emerge on the horizon with smiles and thanksgiving.
Beyond my wildest...

Twilight
Far away from the rhythmic pace of the seas, drifting currents in the rivers,
Lost in echoing glitters of the oceans
Over the challenges of the mountains, gliding suspensions brought by the hills
Lingering for renewal in...

Childhood Memories
Where I was born -
Gumaca, Quezon
a significant place,
a town suffused with history.
It’s almost at the tail-end
that long stretch of Quezon.
A lot of coconut trees
the source of many...

Cancellated Accursements
Banul had a knack for annoying others,
thanks to a fractious face –
a smile guised as a grimace,
a grimace guised as a scowl,
a mouth left ajar when it should’ve been shut,
full of wrongful words
And Kashy...

Dirt Road
We built this house
On a dirt road at the edge of the forest
And between two coyotes dens
So it’s hard to know if the howling at night
Is sibling rivalry or civil war
Serenade or sacrifice
The colonial maps...

The Dawn of My Devil -
The Devil spoke to me
with glee about what could be, promising, possibly,
he thumbed a drum of hearts pulsing
so I could see the drug of love
that I was missing,
a tempo true and rude impossible to elude
took...

The Pinnacle Outpouring
I bowed before the Lord.
Like a little brook, His Spirit flowed.
As I went lower, the Bestower
Poured more into my soul.
A whole refreshing, a mighty blessing
Like a fragrant arboretum flowed.
As praise I raised, heaven heaved
And more...

The Dragon's Lair
Fireflies flicker
in the pupils of the
dragon in his lair
silently he guards the
entrance to the doors of
MeadowFair
MeadowFair lies in
the center of the heart of
widow's wood
and the dragon sleeps
at midnight
we can make it if...

Angilar Shadows
Beams of light peeking through reflections
Cheerfully dancing over the walls and floors
Dipping to and fro in solar refractions
Every light building a tapestry if wonder
Fairylike flits of gold and silver
Gathering at certain points and then...

Dreams Coercing Memory
“Dreams Coercing Memory”
You want cherries jubilee
with a little Krug champagne
but soft custard is just the same
when reality plays its game
by the spoonful
morphine comes
to save the day
the light changes
subtle refractions
of dreams coercing
memory

Seductive Predator
Piqued by the aura of your gleam
You were the hum which broke my vertical solitude
Intruder within the interlude of my vacancy
Through refractions of your eyes, you pulled me in
The wild scents wrap you in silent...

The End of a Rainbow
I found the end of a rainbow
It wasn't so hard to find
One day it just occurred to me
that Ive never even tried
Now, I was told when I was young
It's all about the relationship
Of where you...

Winter's Fantasies
Winter’s Fantasies
Winter walks the mountain hills at nightfall
Breathlessly awaiting evening’s first flakes of snow,
An alpine carnival that rowdy clouds threatened to toss upon their faces;
When, at last, the brumaled storm releases a snowy masquerade
Sweet...

Mother Africa
Reflections
Perchance refractions
On mirror of civilization
Unveiling deep furrows-
Nausea of despair!
Ugly shadows of innocence
Haphazard ruins
Harbingers to Africa.
Mother Africa
Unleash black juju
Denounce anaemic gods and
Sing blues to negritude
Dream with Senghor
continental dreams
Dreams individual-
Like Nkrumah
A touristo blackano!
And African huts
Where come...

Rainbow Heartbeat
Rainbow Heartbeat
Pour me a rainbow
let it float on the sea
As it flows from your heart
and become a part of me
Yellow to brighten
any cloudy day
As upon the waves
it effortlessly plays
Red born of desire
undulating...

Evenings Light
Evenings Light
Late afternoon, rainbow colours slither across my floor,
climbs up and over my audio, my video equipment,
streaks across the covers – between which family history lies
and lights up the frames, the pictorial history before my...

Coming Back Home
Called home my nomadic heart yearns to unpack scattered shadows,
Ornaments of new year snowstorms and souvenirs of summer places,
Mirrors found in attic reflections - hallmarks of nostalgia,
Image refractions of mirages battered milestones...

Resurrections
Resurrections .
During these past, fruitless, couple of years,
I have been revisiting my old thoughts, written in rhyme.
Much of it, I feel, would bring many to tears.
When I resurrected these experiences from a past time,
I began...
