pregnant for the FBI buying large amounts 
of weapons ammunition boxes the dealer

A MINISTER RETIRES :  
SOLILOQUY 

I arise as infant Phoenix 
from Akasha ashes 
counterparts frozen 
with foibles intact
a still Arctic of death
sheath for recalibration 

Source Light breathes into 
fontanelle slowly sleepily  
Sekmet my...

Arms and head missing.
Not an accident.
This was intentional.

Bobby Bendarino smiling.
Busting with pride over his handiwork.
Unashamed of his behavior.

Convinced he'd get away with it
He even winked.
Making the young girl's screams louder.

"Damn," I thought,
"Why do I have...

meaningless door
You really did leave, and 
kept my heart sore
You never knew what I

You never knew you were 
the best thing i will ever find
You left...

As butterflies get attracted to flowers
As Life itself is, to...

BUYING CONDOMS

I was desperate to buy me some condoms
On a Wednesday morning in June
My girlfriend had made me a promise
And we were meeting up that afternoon

For she'd noticed that in my frustration
My flat....which I kept...

This rainy day reminding me of a childhood memory
Me and my sister and cousins loved to play in the rain.
We would filled up our buckets 1 to 6.

I don't know why-
Let me just try-
Our Seasons come
And for no reasons 
They dry
Our Times come
And for true reasons
They change
Our Opportunities come
And for more reasons they turn

When seasons end
Its hard to know
For
We cant let go...

Seven was my number,
When you first gave me that gift,
The tunnel you forever fixed in my heart,
I can make you remember,
 
At home from Jean’s where I’d gone to mother play,
You thoroughly dribbled a hot...

		May the flash floods of tears irrigate your memory and wishes

To dance on your...

two silver spoons, 
two completely different people
tied together by children, marriage, 
divorce
they shared a home 
two decades of life 
and then nothing 
just children; bound by blood, 
broken by each other 
they’re in the same...

I am no courageous,
Fearless, valorous, gallant,
Proud, adventurous,
Selfless patriot
I am a soul in exile
Expressing my thoughts in
All languages but mine
'' Hi…I am Palestinian''
'' Salut…Je suis palestinienne''
I cut my mother tongue 
In half
Palestinian poet
Rafeef Ziadeh was right...

The cob webbed city sticks to my dirty skin,
as I pass through its predator strings.
On the corners are hustlers, men with wigs and worn heels,
selling their wares, fighting with women,
over property rights.

Traffic moves slow, crawling...

Reminiscing and full of nostalgia 
looking back over the years
A life full of joy and laughter 
though some occasional tears
But no real regrets 
Oh, maybe just one 
For at this time of year

The concrete and plastic, chrome domed
bricked up auditorIum rang
like a hollow bell,
a meager few red skins circle the stadium seats
like smoke from a mythical “peace” pipe
ragged, distilled, diluted, distraught, “dised”
A 21st century ablution of angst.

I burnt myself on a funeral pyre so often

only to rise and melt my wings on ascent


Then I tried Odysseus’ underworld instead

but Ariadne’s thread did not glow in the dark


When my Trojan horse stopped at...
