The teacher:     It is in your feet as they walk the path of life.

Inhaling, hushed, from hashed cigars
    my mind implodes in Malimar
        where Naiads bathe in caviar -

Oh my dearly beloved sister,
I'll come as the raindrops to sleep on your flowery heart
Nothing in this Universe possesses the power to set us apart
Compared to you and me, Monalisa is not the greatest art
When...

"Syzygy"

Behind the wet dunes
fringed with seagrass
a blood crescent 
kisses the forehead 
of dreamer traversed
twin aeon syzygy 
barefeet the velvet 
sophia imprints
softly speak 
like words seen
dancing across
the place between 
heaven and earth
mapping deviations
non-standard
calibrating alignment
played forward through...

PSYCHEDELIC

There was a decade, it was the 60’s I’m sure
When everyday things were just a little bit off
As if there were rumblings in the earth’s core
And when scripted lines gave way to improv

There were plans...

Oo those saccharine melodies,

Those yummy and dulcet candies,

Like this midsummer in June,

Sing one song in one tune.

 

Though music has evolved,

Still it feeds our hungry souls,

Like today’s world is of rock’n’roll,

Where verses and stanzas insanely...

The Sun dupes me at dusk - my world turns grey -
Leaving me alone with the distant stars...
Will you marry me on Valentine's Day?

Rivers have gone to meet the sea - at bay
Rest - poured...

He was a writer, a fighter, an old-timer word rhymer
Always thought free verse was asinine
He was the queerest, the dearest, the tear in your beer-est
and he was one Tolkien over the line

He was archaic, prosaic,...

A radio aired an awful auld aria,
Astounding all my aged aural edifices 
In eerie aura of araucaria trees
Aching angrily in a loud typhonic breeze.

My brain wanted to burrow to escape the pain
Of sounds as a...

Man’s Origins
Searching for origins, from perhaps stars. (10)
Conclusive evidence, apes? (7)
Chaos, madness encumbers and it jars (10)
Religions poke presumptions (7)
Mythology, astrology, “too far!” (10)
Confounded naysayers, truths (7)
Leading absolutely nowhere, they mar (10)
Yet, faith, belief, knowing...

The silver lining has taken its root off the shores, 
Ithaca, known for its valour, 
Its existence, a mirage to many
Swords and sitars are bravehearts' game

Whose side shall your armour fall for? 
Whose sword shall...

A drone be, a male bee,
useless in hive of she's,
except at mating time!
Expelled when job done.

A drone is monotonous hum
of sitars and bag-pipes,
mantras meditating,
prayer wheels.

A drone is now an aerial vehicle,
an unmanned helicopter
used for surveillance
and...

Love now drifts heaven bound
somewhere up there in the ether
one day soon to be re-found
til then the stars shine brighter

Their glow lit by your heart
showing me the way to you
I rejoice as when I depart
