Ever opening to amber sunshine, as petals open, when vivid beams pour.

Functionality and beauty were very vital, so I helped customers each day,
To choose materials,...

Such an interesting color, Rodger -
Green - like our mysterious calico eyes?
Yes?

You?
An idiot savant submits
into me - a blooming
garden of emerald delights? Like our
first encounter - regulated and raw (green).
Drawing our hunter-hued
curtains closed and tittering

To Eat A Peach

Spring is here.
The delicate tree blossoms replace
     the delicate white lights of Winter.
From the petals fruit will grow.

Pears, plums, apricots, cherries,
       nectarines...
Peaches.

In Systems Theory
there hides a transparent bias toward positively resilient systems

And there hides an unfortunate bias toward magically created
mechanistic systems

Competing in hierarchical global networks
empowered from sublime Above
and from Outside
domination by missionary zealous soldiers,
LeftBrain elitist owners...

Through the chambers of silence where lost time stirs,
In the room where once hopes blossomed in a flight towards the horizon,
Now stretches a wasteland that whispers from shadows and profound horrors,
All for your diaphanous light,...

Sending the tending to an unfriended ending,
 yet somehow suspending from rending a newly offending recommending.
Logotype monotype linotype,
overripe stereotype,
 teletyped an unripe heliotype. 
Guttersnipe snipe,
 stipe snipe ripe,
 a wipe type a tripe,

Death did enter thro’ the gateway of Disobedience in the Garden,
A separation from the Presence of God existed ‘twixt Heaven and earth,
And it was the spiritual separation ‘twixt the One and the ones,
First pronounced with...

Miles in a coaster, a day and hours elapsed, 
Felt the utmost relief when the whirling wheels halted;

But an in peace slumber I desperately...

from Tartarus, crossing the river of death, Styx,

If nowadays we have become so wise
And are proud achievers
Who have explored the world from our cradle;
If these days men would hear with their eyes
And men would speak by their actions
And would prefer to reason...

Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?


“Why Hast thou”?
My unripe hairy-brain makes its claim
to be the image of its Father.

My vision today 
could turn a green leaf brown, 
or scorn itself, seeing only 
the thoughts that feed it.

Forsaken…...

An apple in this world of unripe lemons-

distinct and all that a man could desire.

Showers of rain in the Kalahari desert;

an oasis in the Sahara sands:

Utmost definition of sweetness-

equivalent to no soul in value.

An apple...

RED-
Pillar boxes that stand open-mouthed
Waiting to be fed.
And plump ripe strawberries,
Dipped in sugar,
Smothered in cream.
Or just popped in your mouth
And squashed between your teeth

YELLOW-
Buttercups that shine under your chin
To give away your secrets.
And hot corn...

For boys of tomorrow who went,
forgive our ignorance of the old,
forgive us for taken the unripe 
mangoes from the top of the trees.
Let your minds be written restfully,

when the coolness of spring 
begins to fade,
in the wake of rising heat
in early April in north Indian plains,
and the golden wheat crops
shimmer in glade,
flowers of different hues
begin to lose their bright sharp sheen. ...

Life longed in my youth 
Longer than a century 
Full of fortitude
Fortitude unbear
Masked with resilience
But reaping failure by day 
Then comes a day 
When stride took me all a lone
In steps of defeat 
I walked...

Chapter 2-The Fate of Saints

From the Blessed bloods of sacred follows,
With Misery painted fire wrapped fates,
Unripe wrongs that flourish over sacred laws
And unseen tragedies written on traits.

As Prayer filled carpets passed for ages,
Harsh tricks hid...

Young fathers;
Young men
Left to be fathers
Of their own.

 Answering
To the call of nature,
they crave for some flesh
At an unripe age.

The prize
They cannot pay,
The pain 
They can't keep.
No Level 
But BaBa God
Dey 
Is their slogan.


Probable fathers;
