Bipartisan DissonanceWhen oppositional cognitive dissonance
deflects focus from compassion,

bread crumbs leading back in time

marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 10“Clap your terrible wings, vivacious serpent of old!
Imagine my plight as dangerous as your spite,
Stomp your clawed feet on these prison floors,
Peace shall always follow the sink of your fangs…”
Silenced were the wailing demons round,
Crouched...

Smuggler's BoatMigrants on the move from violence
their only possession
breath-space on a smuggler’s boat
secured with back-bent harvests
in pretzel-bent systems
weight of crates of strawberries
hoisted on hell-bent backs
just trying to reach Spanish-shores’-east
from Moroccan beach with a...

SalvejaI
I live in a society,
That does not know me.
I live in a community,
That does not owe me.
I feel a stranger,
In my renowned hometown.
And act a savage,
In my parent's town.
Who knows me???
Than my very self?
Who feeds...

Patiently, cats eyed, alert and poised for action;
More than ready to eat, not greet, or fuss affectionately,
'She’busies herself with the important work
of savaging your rucksack straps;
‘He’, inspecting cupboards and wincing at draughts,
looks on, anticipating some...

She Runs With the LionsIn an other dimension
There lies another world
Deep forests of green
Moss, fern creepers unfurled
Thousands of birds
Species similar to ours
Atmosphere the same
Moon and bright stars
The difference here
Is the attitude of life
No savaging hunters
In bloodied strife

The FuneralThe Funeral
Juxtaposed we find
metaphorical possibilities
on the 'oft heard word
"Great.."
in recent discourse..
The funereal gathering
marked with precision
and heartening oratory
celebrated a life representing
a centered consensus..
claiming a greatness
past and present..
but with darkness lapping
in places too close..
The golf outing

In Search of ClosureSeeking closure
A happy ending
To the things I've done
For the things I've said
It's time to put to bed
The guilt throbbing in my head
Finding it hard to sleep at night
Maybe it's the mattress
Maybe it's my conscious
Refusing me...
