Something strange

and unexplainable comes this way,
this way, it comes to us sly and fast, 
some say, perhaps, 
it has already arrived, 
it walks unseen, in the midst of all, of us 

we go about our...

"The Depths"

From the depths
silence.

Where 
are the voices
of other 
women?

In that other place,
the monsters violate, 
they take and take
bloody all, what they want

the dreams of women
are torched, murdered, 
next to them, 
the sweet dreams of lives...

"Tell Me Something Beautiful"



You could write me 
something beautiful
to leave me 
when you are not here

Someone told me 
the dead don’t speak 
they just listen 
I am reading you

I am always 
Here

I am front and...

When that storm arrived,
the entire congregation 
in genuflection 
knelt before 
Her poetic prayers,
they saw themselves shining,
eventually, in Her reflection 

scandalously quiet 
like perculating thunder, 
their minds cracking open,
their whole chicken little sky 
falling closer ever...

My bones reverberates, my spirit can't be contained anymore, I need a 2nd reload, a spiritual beast, I hear fowls and beasts in the mountains and under waters shouting my name, claim us! Claim us!...

In the little space in closet
Slightly enclosed
A cat have birth musn't she give up

Kittens alive all climbing their way to find a milked nipple 
4 healthy kittens , but one not 

Only hours alive 
Tossing...

Rats in the cellar, squirrels in the tree,
things aren't the same as they used to be.

When I left for school with my li'l lunch pail,
I didn't expect a penguin to swallow a whale.

Such an injustice,...

I have always wanted to speak, 
Speak on behalf of them, 
I wish we could all sit and think, 
I wish we could all see what I see but I know we do but chooses...

In the labyrinth of shadows stretching across the walls of consciousness,
we constantly seek scapegoats, like hunters of clouds
in a storm of illusions, fleeing from truths covered
under veils of mist, where each step is a silent...

"Triple Helix from the Hip"

Triple helix
stanzas 
strung together

like pearls 
wisdom worn 
and swallowed

like a pill
sweet and 
bitter

they evolve
those others
from their bad dreams

like poetry 

cradling their 
purity in sentences
that speak their godliness

as if they 
have done...

Its creeping up on me and silently 
engages me within its beam

As I write …
Dreams caress my soul
With joy that comes from knowing
The delights of God’s imagination
Inspiring me to give back to this world
Pieces of my heart and soul, my hopes
The ideas that come to me...

A fire blazes behind the veil 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This veil I wear
is not made of cloth
for no fabric could withstand
the incendiary passion
I command

It's self-imposed
not forced
no man's hand
would dare cover me
yet here I am
swathed in these layers...
folds of...

“POETIC JUSTICE” (VIRTUE OVER VICE)

Virtue over vice—who will pay the price
Ironic twists of fate are flawed if virtue does not equal reward
Logic needs to triumph—to beat and defeat
The tragedy of treachery that strives to cheat...

The Measure of Greatness is lost to the world
Unacknowledged, unknown, unarticulated
By prophets, priests, and kings
And yet, the real potential exists
In each one of us
To be great

There are two kinds of people
The ones who try
In every...

Dont speak of love, then strike my face
Dont promise me better treatment with false lips, my scars hold more fidelity and trust.
Dont tell me you miss me, for your wishes show, only to cast me...

Beneath the host of silence that pierces with the harshness of refusal,
A timid odyssey of splendor quietly sharpens its echo.
For in the depths of oceans of lamentation hidden,
Rests a crystal of strength and unfathomed experiences.

You can’t help when passing that old apartment building
On the corner of Franklin and Rose avenue but to stop
And stare and at the same time, to tremble a bit in reaction
To feeling the eerie sensation...

Lucky to be a Simple Man

One reads about the famous ones, them
that live a life of stress, about taking
all sorts of pick-me-up-pills
then downers, so they can rest.

Well I’m just an ordinary guy with nothing
to call...

Exposing the unacknowledged intellection of the inflicted
Delving in the presence of delinquent attempts
I wonder if too little too late leaves real emotion exempt
We are often forced to see the reality of our actions

Selfish satisfaction in...
