Long Tarpaulin Poems

He just appeared to me, like wispily curling 
Chimney smoke, 
One grim and early morning in the very midst of 
Decembers briefest days, on the highest slope,
Toiling through my daily round; where, slowly 
Driving up...

There were images the grey man could not see 
Did not want to see, in all probability

Walking by the glass doors and windows of modern stores
No warmth of being within their cold crisp alloy frames

His puffed flute fit into his mouth, making mallow music,
The crowd hailed his...

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...

The sun has sunk
the moon was nearing
lumber smoke tarpaulin 
vermillion shine

I could feel the freshness under my feet
a fantastic breeze blows...

Monsoon Melody

Winged postal horses of poetic turf
Seemingly preoccupied in scratching an itch
Inflicted upon by our toxic refuge,
It would be a bit too much
Expecting black clouds to fetch
Vivid glimpse of not so far past
Silently fading in...

Suddenly, upon a hill as bright as day
A vision before me, or am I misled

On this asphalt road,to the left, a tractor trailer stands
Waiting as...

In the rain some people are salt.
Then, dissolving like one they should halt:
That God had okayed Rainfall no fault;
My challenge to delay Destined Vault…

The coldest rains could invite that vault,
One’s exposed head to it obvious...

Awaiting bristled whisper of ghost jounced leaves
Lain gazing galaxies far from terra's tarpaulin roof 
Exciting diamonds claw for cosy navy ink reprieve 
Hark my insignificance in succinct majesty's truth


Hushed by muchness, my warmth absorbs His...

I’m taking off all me clothes.

What Could Makes Me Happy

 I have tarpaulin over my shame,
 And instead of photographing un-wiped yarns
 I will continue to climb the ladder of laughter
 In case the eczema of fame spread abroad.

Thoughts of the past beneath trees shade deep sighs
as leaves rain above relax ambience.

A mountain gravel path laced in pigments
freckle crimson, copper, and honey gold
striking crisp blithe as soft waves of fluttering
pinnate leaves still battle...

confused as she was and out of her depth.

floated rubber rafts to buoy her up.
Marine experts posited ways

One very heavy night
Dark, gloomy and pouring
It poured unceasing
Fear augustly visited my sight.

My brothers in the rain
To fetch for our stomachs' gain.

This fear invited my shaking hands
Grabbing hurriedly, tarpaulin weapon
Miry clays.... wetlands
my weary legs struggled...

all aspects of our lives they can control
they own all that you have except your soul
the sharply suited pipers call the tunes.
Exchanging every privilege and boon,
in freedom's name to dominate, their...
