Intoxicated in such a way my eyes,
That wanted open to crying their doors.

But Virgil told : “What for you look this guise?
Why now your sight is so carefully brought

inside out, cut open
like a tennis ball

along with the racket
hard against the garage wall

To make sense of it all
as a child, the grief stolen
all too swiftly and replaced...

slowly glazing the rags of gray women chagrined

Zealous untiring repentance

Fleshed out as poetic confessional.

Profligacy prevailed pricking psyche
precipitating pandemonium.

I wrought havoc courtesy aegis
of paramours picadillos, yours truly did relish
crooning, clowning, and cavorting 
around at Piccadilly Circus
located in Regent Street, Shaftesbury Avenue
Piccadilly, Covent Street...

On the bible’s principle in Deuteronomy 22:5 and viewed

Through my bloodstream pulsing,
Insidious poison runs rampant.
I open veins willingly for more,
And the hidden addict slams the door.

The insurgents are loose and swelling,
The castle has been breached.
The moat of my memory recedes,
As the hidden addicts...

I had been placed in chains 
Where the cripples shed their canes 
And the blind regained the art of seeing.
It was a robbers’ den 
And as all God fearing men, 
I had assets needed freeing.

Terrorism is a villainous violence, 
Used by those who disagree,
Bloodshed breaks the somber silence,
Between those who feel unfree. 

However, when one disagrees
With how the system works,
They are targeted by an intelligent team
Of thieves who wear...

An eerie sway casts halos in the night sky.

The mist in Regent Gardens air
awakes a single rosebud there.
Her scent drifts past Trafalgar Square -

You opened your doors in 1998. 

Little did you realise, how highly you’d rate.

With grand halls and ceilings and banisters gleaming. 

When people come to visit, it’s like they are dreaming.

No detail too small, overlooked...

Oneness with 'the Absolute'...!


Dying to the moment - every moment,
that we can't even stake claim as a regent!

Resulting restlessness that we can prevent,

And I mayn't be the prettiest or smartest in the land

But I've got a world...
