My abode in Samonda
Only to condense in Iwo road.
There I saw them begging
One barely leaves before
Another jumps on us
They were beggars of the Niger-Area.
Behold !an old haggard
Tattered looking...

From a Ruby Garland For George and Nora - My Parents -Europe was frozen in a tide of hate

And my day has come and gone.

Evoking the morns that arose in despair
And nights that steered dreams into sorrow,
As I sit all alone in valleys of destitute
Where memories haunt pitfalls of yore.

Goldberg VariationsWhirling through torpedoes of sound,
spinning and tailing its way like Raphael to earth,
shoots some uninstantaneous ether:
the impermeable myelin of true experience.

Loner LunarOnce there's a moon
Lived by dangle lights in vacant space
Encircle with no purpose, but created as a boon

Collecting stars and herding constellations
Beneath the blank surface they dance together

Observing a Cliche From a Rocky PromontoryAbove the heat
the sky is cooling, it’s blue is flecked with ice,
its ghost-written lamp
