In wicked rounds”, I started, “If you please,

as bicameral restoration
of Earth's nature-spirit ecology,
both Eastern karma
and Western co-redemptive grace.
Spiritual memory experience
of RNA
and later DNA developments
and traumatic extinctions,
positive great transitions
and double-negative traumas;
are exegetical rhythms
and sacred seasoned pattern...

A Parallel Earth
It was the weekend, and I was sleeping late that day,
Alone with the morning, while savoring marvels of May.

God's Zen Voice
Once upon this time
I was listening to the Christian Fathers
retell traditional stories
of God's election and predestination.
Predestination
is like being born into royalty,
power,
privileges of humane Earth's regenerative grace.
Election is more democratic.
Selection based on God's vote for mercy,
apparently,
because...

Notchosen Stories
What are these days of mourning stories
I choose not to tell about myself,
my emotion-driven journeys
to windy hot imagined future
and remembered warm wet green
and impossibly resilient blue past
pre-historic paradise,
before people
and our mosquito
and cockroach
and locust
and indoor rats...

The Gift of Christmas

Wanders lost
Through flashing ads and tinsel carelessly strung
On an artificial bough.

A Christmas Tale

Jordan
Miss Jordan —
Are you satisfied?
Living in a world
Where hopes and efforts never collide,
Where all abide by someone else's design.
Would you simply resign?
It's peculiar how you're blind —
Self-imposed by your own mind.
Could you just stop and...

The Big Drum of goodwill

To the people of the City of Aluu.
Unto us, a child is given;
Unto us, a warrior is born.
Not to interlock hands and arms
With girating feet holding grounds
