Long Solidness Poems

Repulsive Slumber  

Down the basement, 
not a single color of envy,
flat-lines, are standing still all around.
The stillness is suffocating,
everything coming my way.
Different from,
the morals,
of my old organize ways.

"Still Round The Corner There May Wait,...

Once upon a time,
In the depths of my mind,
I was transported.

Alone in a barren valley,
Desolate and bare,
No visible life.

I look up through the heat haze,
Gasp at arid air,
Search the horizon.

On top of a rocky crag
I...

Recounted time and again by parents loving and proud.

in her footsteps.

She
offers a cooling balm
for the heat of my frustrations.
Leaning against that solidness gives pause,
to stop and drink in
the shade of her wisdom.

And I 
marvel at the juxtaposition
of...

your function, or process, I admire so easily
rock is a sign

In the middle of the meadow she stands.
Majestically reaching toward Heaven.
Beautiful in her solidness,
Patient and serene.

From beneath her branches
Kisses are stolen between lovers,
Their initials etched within
Proclaiming immortal devotion.

She is an enduring sanctuary,
Absorbing the suffering.
Tears from...

Imaginary equivocates 
Inquiring all along the states 
In a silenced unreal fullness of Time 
Necessity and Space, for a while 
Forever unconsciuous of her mind 
Inexistent demonstration of  her exile 
Our world, our dimension,...

He’s like my idol in today’s generation
the Holy Father who’s an answer
to the growing tensions in our religion.
Catholicism in its form and nature
Pope Benedict XVI, a real option.
