Time to choose? Time to change?
When I feel Love
It feels like I am falling into a deep blue lake
Of a baby’s eyes.
When I hate,
Darkness consumes me like smoke,
Smothering light and extinguishing all hope.
Knots in...

Life's Fate
Old servile sleep descends on heavy wings
From laden summits wrapped in icy clouds
When, glassy-eyed, the owl cold midnight rings
And snowy mist the starry light enshrouds.
Atop the ancient firs, the birds lie still
And cling...

Casper the Unfriendly Ghost
Welcome to your new home!
Tucked away in this lovely town of harmony
where tourists visit often
and our bears wander in society!
Please, make yourselves comfortable
feel free to settle in
should you have any questions

The Ocean Beckons -POTD
The waves crushing her tiny body with striking blows
White creamy wash caresses her golden skin as the wave slows
Moving sluggishly towards the horizon
Because of a recurring vision she hopes she’ll arise in
Her feet digging deep...

Drowning
Cold creation has bequeathed him progress
Useless and torn from his children
A mockery becomes less than human
Casual use his habitual life buoy
Disconnection from his own culture
Less than a man in his borrowed suit

The dark merlot stains my lips blood-red
Casting me in a vampire light
The bottle sits half empty by my elbow
As silent and motionless as I
We keep each other company, the bottle and me
Two cynical sentinels keeping...

Timeless Womb
Seed - scattered strewn or downtrodden.
Grain stuck on passive flytrap mucus.
Wild life biomes ripe with open sesame.
Frantic birth pangs stiffen their gestations as green leaf ferments bubble underneath.
Mother of all wombs, diva pulse...

Dragon
Denizen of abyssal labyrinth,
legendary ancient Wyrm seeks succour
within prodigious sepulchral cavern:
her domicile for an ageless lifetime.
Ethereal shafts cascade through ceiling's
stochastic rifts, piercing tenebrous tomb;
vicious viscous scarlet smears juxtapose
against shimmering iridescent scales.
Aeons past, Faustian pact formed...

Again They Visit
Christmas is almost here
And just as I feared
Those ghosts came back
Even this year they appeared
Doubt came and sucked the happy from me
Smiled and sucked some more so greedy
Astonished I wasn't ready
My footing shaky not so...

A voice fills the ears of the dead
There are walls covered with red paint
In the heart of the slums

The clouds moving along sluggishly
Like the people walking the streets
The buildings feature glass-less...

Passing By
A Father and a Daughter walked onto
The bus.
One stop away from the highway.
The whiteness outside creeping up around,
Silently,
Like a cat.
He sat in front,
She sat behind.
She had long hair down her back,
He had white feathers...

If Not Tomorrow
Do not blame the snail
When it drags along sluggishly
Or draws back in its shell out of fear.
But what do you say of one
Who competes with a turbo jet
And makes friend with a sledge hammer?
Do not...

Love Might As Well Be a Million Miles Away
Love Might as Well be a Million Miles Away
Demented silence
Thuds dreams to nothing
In empty hands
And desperate lips kiss
Air
Tears beguile emotion to feeling
Something
Anything
Squawking
All of it a lies distraction
From the yank and burn
Don’t look to deep

Spiritism
deep, deep into the coven
Men gathered in black red
chanting of loom doom to come
Spiritualism shrunk and shrieked
Enchantment of idols of life
Chanting rumbles of voidness and
tempest and hailstones and hell
Devil's advocates gathered in tears
Demons gathered...

Weary of strangers with tales of delight
Take the forked road less traveled and dare

The marsh is thick, and my shoes are ripped.
Treading through the swamps of my mind.

I Have a Cold
According to Doctor Google, I am actually dying.
With the symptoms I have, surely it can't be lying.
I'm living on borrowed time, I really should be dead.
My head is so dense, I look like Mr Potato...

Tales To Be Told
Somewhere out there, in the cold
A homeless child seeks warmth
When the world has gone to sleep
And fat bellies on warm beds snore
The night creeps in slowly
Time crawls sluggishly, on sleepy feet

A Day In Kampala
A flight of birds
Flaunt their enormous wings
Spying the light blue skies,
Of a city protected by trees
Whose sheer leaves
Dance with the January breeze
That hovers over
A people of different origins
A chrysalis unborn,
Wrapped tightly with love
Soon to...

Sluggishly Different
Enough of golden daffodils, romance and paths not taken
Let's lend poetic airing to a subject quite forsaken.

To that much lambasted creature called the common garden slug.

History of Paper-Hearts
Have you seen, with no word,
The immense, cold voids
,among the slender, patient buds,
Received hollow seeds?
Have you beheld the earth
Lay the masks of dreams upon itself,
And like a sullen cradle,
Crush them within its embrace?
Have you seen...
