Bombarded by myriads of daily data without cease,

Her wish for twilight till the crack of dawn
When the hot sun begins to drown in the deep mighty ocean,
And the cool moon begins to rise from the high mountains in slow motion,
She starts to fly away steadily with the gentle winds,
As she...

The Seventh Seascape

O souls of the Island, 
I have silently 
heard through 
tropical torrents 
and surpassed 
a million miles 
of the milky seas, 
away from 
mint-marine 
silhouettes of my
utopian wonderland, 
as strawberry 
ripples and 
coconut-scented 
musings called...

The Adventures of Enea, Part 3 of 13
Enea, at the Scottish Court

The critics claim that this is far the worst
of all the frescoes.  Enea the star?  No

And that’s the Clyde?  It...

the clutter and dust, even the walls

on paper with dot to dots, morse

It all begins in the darkest part of our empty souls.
When we realize we won't or can't possibly reach our goal.

We gnash out bloodied teeth, crying to a crimson sky, 
Lashing out..... "Why, why, why?"

My Mistake

Her eyes, her lips, her humility and

i can’t handle rejection,
the unhug of perfection.
a piercing scream of perplexion —
my complexion streaked
grouted and piqued.

i backhanded you by
closing the splintered door,
vainglorious to the core —
now you can’t see the open sore.

The Thin Blue Ribboned Line
Against the dark vastness of the sky
Beautifully marbled disc of blue;
Through viewport a scintilla I spy
Thin ribbon of the very same hue.
