Come Walk With Me

Come Walk With Me

In my mind
tendrils of memories past
insinuate and insert themselves
in the corners
to root out and cast light upon
them
as my hand presses, whiteknuckled
 
Bent into the bitter wind
here, alone
against the cold hard
brick, mortar and...

I AM AFRICA

I am Africa, the cradle of mankind,
Where ancient footprints in the sands of time entwined,
The birthplace of humanity, divinely designed,
In my esteemed valleys, where life first aligned.

I am Africa, the cradle of civilization,
Where mighty empires...

An Exceeding Great Army

AN EXCEEDING GREAT ARMY

Because of the missing sword
A soldier falls,
And another,
And another,
And another…

When was their birth?
What hastens their death?
Christ paid the debt
He fought with that sword
Till all forces bow…

But for this missing sword
A soldier crumbles,
And...

Awakenings

For years she had slowly slid from well cared for home 
to musky boxes and rugs.
Sitting in a chair, watching old movies,
pretending the devastation around her had not occurred.

Her senses deadened, she neither saw the...

Know.! Many more will soon, and that will show.' Will they
Lose some more.?...

Smoke Clouds

My master's shaft of light is forbidding;
Still, I have enough sense left to keep hidden.

If he cannot find me, he will not hurt me;
my silence, a bold plea for safety.

Beneath the dank hay, prayer makes...

Neuroticism

In the neurotic's body, madness dances
A helpless victim ensnared in devil's bottle
It appears to be a spell caused by an ugly devil
But they say it's a curse of some shattered soul
But how could the innocent...

Me
A lump!
Why? 
How did it get there?
Please make it go away

Three days later I wake up groggy, vomiting, in pain, and much disoriented...

Words and Lines

I search for lines, in vain, days, evening, night.
Stippled heads are moving along a morning rail station, and
Poetry sleeps at a stale corner without cover in this city-winter.
An institution, with awardees for research to root...

Cogent Clues and Critical Cues

Fire in my belly
Confidence in my mind
I confront challenges that I tackle daily
In a determined and concerted onslaught to find

Among several alternatives I explore
To root out hypocrites who ingratiate
Themselves to exploit my generosity...

Today's the Day

Today's the day that I lock my pain away
Garnered by years...

From the Overlook

a Spanish sonnet

Passion thrives on forgiveness, oh my sweet.
Your scorn will reason well to wonder why 
I attempt a smile even though your eyes   
refuse to cherish blooms laid at your feet.

Let all the woods your footprint bear

Picking imprints from everywhere,
Let all the woods your footprint bear,
Take off, nag at no rutted tract,
What if some rickety ways stare.

Throw to winds every needless care,
Let no head wind unduly dare,
Let the worse worsen, worst...

In bridled hovel on denuded strand

Waiting for purloined fealty her title to brand
Festooned in ritual garb, decked with lavish garland
As noble peacock, her fecund colors are fanned
Waiting eligible suitors her...

The Young Turks

I'm inspired by their bravery
To root out the truth and lies
To help the ignorant people
Tear the wool off of their eyes

To fight the blatant perversity
Of our corporate owned government
Despite all the adversity
