Self-Possessed

By a bunch of flowers,
	When the virgin morning arise up there
Through the horizontal line,
I just can't wait the instantaneous
	Change from one rose to another that special 
Sacrifice of life and death.

	Ah, what a smell! What...

Once Upon a Ego

Once upon a time there never was an Ego
For it was alive by the breath of wishes of those who were suffocating from it
I carried the cross for being egoist
Had my hands nailed, had myself...

Our Precious Chance of Happiness

you're proud of your book learning and often boast about
but stand helpless and perplexed when friends shed tears or shout
your diction is so witty, your wording eloquent
but when you talked about affection no one knew...

Consciousness Correction

Yesterday,
when conscious slept,
anger was my shield,
fear my faithful sword.

When hatred contaminated my heart,
tears ached for tranquillity,
polluted in guilt from selfish greed.

Life can be a disaster waiting to occur,
leaving you in despair gasping for air,
suffocating your...

A real man


A real man moves with quiet grace,
Confident in his chosen pace.
He builds with actions, steady, true,
A vision clear in all he’ll do.

He holds opinions firm yet kind,
Takes risks that challenge heart and mind.
Loyal to love,...

To truly love myself- this I resolve
To guard with zeal my tenderness of heart
Of every sin and doubt myself absolve
And fortify and strengthen every part

Magnified Myself


An inarticulate artist, 
I wanted to paint 
the lone life’s landscape,
            effervescent,
the construed course
of a river called desire

rolling them over and over and over
leaving this reality behind, far...

Today S Woman

TODAY’S WOMAN

A column can scaffold a back that is enervated.
We as women will burden ourselves with hate.
That is we will take on another’s disintegration.
All in that business is a mess.
It becomes our plight to fix.
We...

A Family Story

There needs to be vanity,
Or a dark twist to the story.
   A demon angel, Michael
Basking in his glory.

   Then there must be a 
Wicked witch from the West.
   She...

Pallettes of Herself

Dark glowing eyes, a hazel bun, well tucked 
and neat. Lips curve like shells in porcelain, 
Awaiting to express, her brave conduct 
That I could sense audacity, back when
Ladies bowed to men, such common duty.
Yet...

Independent Gods

“I fight the good battle!” I thought:
But a warrior
whether Christ’s or the Devil’s, or Self
is still “A blade held high” demon
of sorts, though the conscious motive
May be of highest righteousness--
the transformation of darkness into light.

Free Cee Was It What It Was

It was a time of temperance for a temper tamed
It was a time when, on beauty, was mournfulness and belligerence blamed
It was a time when a recently birthed masterpiece was smudged

Freedom

Freedom is not a mere concept,
nor a philosophy, nor a political
opinion – it is what drives men
to revolution, and masses from
religion: The want of freedom
turns children from parents, and
spouses away from domineering
mates.... Freedom is why...

A Dog Is Someone Or Something Replaceable

When the tick at last loud enough that my clock did knock
I got a dog
I saved and I readied and I searched with my gut
And I found you
You most spectacular mutt
You taught me
You changed me

Let the Children Play

A child is simply uncomplicated
neither inhibited, nor reflective, free.
Unencumbered by the past
not held-back by what lies ahead,
beyond care for contemplation.

Children - 
jump in puddles, splash in the bath
create spontaneously
lose themselves in endless play
sing and laugh...

The Artist

To merge my art with lonely drops of rain,
And enslave thunder rolling from my breast.
Where storms are formed by a lover's pain,
And each breath heaves deeply, self-possessed
To render her face drawn within the storm,
