The seductive voice
emanating from the Cyclops eye,
whispers:    Don’t believe what you see!

Glaring sun menaces eyes as they face the sky boldly.

Love and Lust
ignores
ALL

The Others dissolve
who cares, Lovers don't - 
Lovers are in a world of their own

Lovers dance

Love and Lust
play their own game

Unafraid, they play
Day into Night
Night into Day

Causing our weary hearts to yearn and strive for a little more.

The manicured nails - the elegant fingers
Holding out the hundred dollar bills - enticingly - so temptingly
A generous nights takings of busking here
In one proffered hand
She grabs at it petrified it...

X Brand Love

She’s my bad medicine,
	giving me fever chills
	and heart palpitations
		Always breaking out in a cold sweat
from her sultry hot loving
	Keeps me dancing on the edge of death,
	defying all my common sense
She’s my no good medicine
Then there’s...

Entered a less travelled path leading to the woods 
Where the scene gleamed with refreshing verdure
Here Nature lay in calm repose, deaf to all hustle n’ scuffle

She recall her day when she sat by the window
And saw the defiled sky to brace up on with spiritual phantasm
Of some demonic begrudges – amassing and making
The flushing spirit of the late evening merriments...

Dive deep if sea seems inviting enough,
Leap in a river, forget swelling flood, 
Climb on to that temptingly tricky crest,
Walk down to the valley sloping that go,
Be guest to an unknown nameless forest,
Explore a hamlet...

In the calm spaces of thump ripples   
three gossamer shadows gather,  
each a whisper of what once was,  
three stories spilled,  
but which is true?

The River Ouse Aghast
down past the cold undercurrents of 
Virginia's Woolf, and Sylvia's wrath
searching through their darkest hearts
too many writers take another path

from fulfillment, and in their cups
awash with sullen antidepressants
pondering if they'll get enough
of life to even...

Vaingloria
Vaingloria, chieftainess imperial
Hums a tune of love and springtime lost,
For now the seasons of her greying hair is Fall
Flecked with harbingers of coming frost.

And yet she reminisces of her early years,
Courtesan of rare erotic arts,
Remembering...

The Precipice Moment

In the sixth hour,
of the sixty-sixth day,
another doubter stood on the edge
of the dark abyss

Void chasm in the mind;
canyon to nowhere,
null directions written on a blank page

In the sixth hour,
of the sixty-sixth day,
a scoffer peered...

that got a fishy smell
Being a fisher of men 
is a dangerous occupation
