Can blackwater lilies
sing forth sonnets
of daylight and
unsung those
cacophonous notes
of omen, which
rhymed with
sombre elixir
of spruce rivulets and
veiled your crimson
touch of life,
in eons of unforgivable

Pablo Neruda: English translation of 'Machu Picchu'
The Heights of Machu Picchu, Canto VIII

translation by Michael R. Burch
Ascend with me, my American love!
Let’s kiss these mysterious stones together!
The Urubamba’s torrential silver
lures pollen to fly from its golden chalice
while above this...

They Sea Me Without
They sea me without.
I carry a raven upon my shoulder,
A sundial on my back.
The hat I wear is made of ash;
Sunlight is what I lack.
I drag my feet behind me on sandy beaches.
The ball and...

Fauxbia
The deep and sonorous voice of
his defeatist self-talk was paternal,
and torturous,
reinforcing the force fed message,
"There is no happiness,
only gradients of misery,"
leaving him indifferent to the present,
careless of the future.
Reared in the shadows of perfection,
parental...

I shall find a way or make one
(Inveniam viam)
Far beyond these eerie things, where limits have no scales
Fish are replacing gills, with turbine aerated tails
Sea level’s losing all meaning, for the humpback whales
Ships piggyback them, harpoons syphon wind from their...

Through words spoken as though from some celestial being
Warm emotion floods me, floods my very fibrous core
Love I feel is not a mere four...

Wanted: Queen of Stars
(Prelude)
A practicing hermit comes ‘board the train—
"Faux Pas Degenerate’s the name."
The sundial dust of a spider
on silken words retires;
Easy now with walking
‘fore the secret slips out: Desire.
"Paranoia: witch’s brew.

Watching Time
** Watching Time **
From all analog to any
Digitally shown markings
Of humanity’s invented
Way to watch over Light
— passing or coming —
Time…
In less than a breath,
So, so many ways our anxious
Noting of hours may be halted:

Sundial Bridge
Ordinary words cannot express the glimpse, this strange eclipse of wonder
Driving over hills, just north of home, it captures first my curiosity
Amid the landlocked green of rolling hills, trees and rocky tundra
Could it be, perhaps...

The Sundial
Sundial
My passion is the silent weather vane
The gambrel brought such sorrow
Much I marveled this roughcast cairn
Eagerly I looked for the lintel
I have dreamed of the clocks
Eagerly I looked for the masonry
It was heterodox
Somewhat louder than...

The wealthy seek company with your ten-acre heart and one-acre mind.
Groupies swarm beneath your haloed window even on rainy nights.
Tapping tambourines and triangles to poultice out those nuggets of life.
You slowly walk away from...

out of the darkness
Infant eyes see a circle of light

not having any square root understanding
Babies struggle to upright walk
in the bosom sight of the bright shining
Their first movements in...

A Maryland Summer
Our Robin’s nest on twenty-eighth bayside,
strung like the Kite’s Loft display.
Free and now flowed with the tide,
as we watched the sunrise of each day.
Center courts of youth and bouncing Penns
pushed full throttle jet skis into...

Feeling inside soul of time and weather change
Colder weather arriving and autumn harvest,
Full natural growth and the autumnal equinox glows
Wonderful time for a football game, hometown competitions are best.

Memento Mori
Prompt: Sundial
Stone keeper
of time so frail,
Gazes over gardens,
Poisoned
by pretentious people
Longing to lengthen living.
Time trickling away,
The truth shall stay.
Superior shrine of ages
Shines,
Preserved
past periods
when legends had long lost life.
Casting contorted shadows from its path,
The renewed sun shall laugh;...

Nobody's Acolyte
Promise me nothing –
I’m not interested in your vows
Between the farmer and the field
Is just another broken plow
No backtalk allowed –
All discourse now falls short
A culture of mellow drama
And every day is the last resort
I’m...
