she carried pen and paper as did i
hers was to communicate with the world
mine was the labor in poems
i walked the high iron
she taught the deaf to speak

~he Licks the News, To Taste Reality~
Alone these thoughts like annoying buzz,
zealously trample across minds agenda,
beguile what plans I had planned to play.
Yearning for release from ancient scab,
can I not sheath their crashing climax?
Xenon prayers list low and anaemic,
downtrodden by shoe-tied...

A Peril Against Civility
In the dark allies they hide with the muzzles of their guns and fly bullets with people screaming for safety out of dazzle.
Reading long speeches in suits they wove out of patriotism and deception
Greed, vanity...

The Valediction Ceremony
A veil of silence trickles across the floor,
Dusty slither of light projects from the door,
Her shadow creeps softly out from toe,
Awaiting her lover of friend and foe.

Slithering light snaps open into space,
Painted innocence sits upon...

Valediction To
Valediction to..

Yet again nature sheds rain,
thunder and lightening strikes as they scream in pain,
the bell tolls the loss of tranquility,
mankind mourns the loss of humanity,
oceans deprived of water,leaves fallen from tree,
infinite hollow soul moves,gloominess hangs...

Premium Member Funerals Should Be Joyous
Not for my goodbye 
half-hearted expressions of grief,
nor mumbled condolences faintly felt. 
For somber attire topped by somber faces, 
I have no need.   
I came into this world bearing meager gifts,
but if our...

Goodbye
and wipe your civilized feet on the lawn
scorched by the fire of the hours
let the happy afternoons at the shopping center
rest on the old shelf balanced on the bricks
carefully get out of the loaded car

A Valediction For Lucifer
Agent of darkness
King,
Of principalities and powers
You,
Who knows no love
But,
Hate, scorn and wickedness 
You,
Who sow thorns at night
And,
Reaps prickles in darkness
You; you,
Who robs Peter 
To pay Paul


You,
Who suck blood
Instead,
Of giving life
You,
Who can only 
Ravage the body
But,
Not...

Been Compelled For Valediction
With the sparkle experience
Of the warm abdomen, 
I was napping in the gentle, silky womb.
All forced me to turn 
The nap into the sleep
For ever, 	
Not in the uterus, 
But in the world of 
Aborted...

Valediction
Quite some time has passed since then..
we used to sit together for hour's,talking endlessly,
"till the yellow sun turned dark"..
 
 
and a gracious embrace to mark a goodbye,
i used to walk back home with scent...

A Valediction: of the Poor
I seldom bred a token for 
despair
Out of innocence, 
meekness, pain or worse
I'd rather wear the sand-
hill, plucking air
Engaging folds of plants 
in cold discourse.

I seldom pleased the lure 
of brilliant pleas
Nor gave mine ears...
