Long Valiance Poems

Oh, this impish ill!
this mystic flock of ever-roaming pain;
You now possess fully
my body and my life.
I am at your full attention and mercy;
Do you not rejoice?
Are you not overwhelmingly triumphant?
This very body that shamed kings...

Cross all your Salem's in foreshadowed Shalom,
do the math and burn, 
brightly back at Cairo, Memphis, Jericho-less nonetheless turn,
and those of paths now undaunted, not undone to aftermath of storm.
In the land of the free,...

A south wind carries magnolia petals
and butterfly wings, wafting through thoughts at dawn. 
I share sweet expectations, peace 
in mellow morning dew, holding fast to the hush like a treasure 
of rediscovery in bright monarchs...

The huge sky overseeing the emerald and bluish earth...
wouldn't be the only sky in our incredibly diverse Universe,
if limited sight weren't the obstacle to the awesome images that surprise couldn't conceal;
but many more galaxies hiding...

Far from the madding crowd
I treasure the myths you gone through
Once I walk down the streets of legends
Even the weeping dusts reminds me of 
Bloods, who immolated their lives to you.
 
Oh Calcutta! You live...

As I walk this earth 
Bare and broken
Blood soaked and driven
My soul in supernova
My mind, frenzied.

My body bruised
My sword well used
Nostalgic, 
Breathing in fresh paint 
From beaten bodies and torn souls 

Sudden movement
A quivering soul
A...

Being with you; I am soaring high grounded in adoration…
Upon your departure creeps my secret resistance…
Suppressing, squashing my heart desires is voracious outside influence…
Telling me “Mocked will be your soul’s dowry” lacking acceptance…
So I love...

Come all, sail along with me!
Welcome aboard to a Pirate's Ship of World History

All about the great buccaneer named, Sir Henry

Their numbers drawn, the backwards lottery
Almost none were aware they were playing

Assaulted by the poisons that save them 
Hairless children with steroid-swollen cheeks
Feared stigmata of chemotherapy
Daily valiance, heroism unsought

Magic bullets are a relative thing
Modern wonder...

From color, everything turns into shades of grey
A palette of beauty, now so monochromatic
Everything good and bad ends up as alabaster
And all else is simply forgotten
Lost in the thick-leafed pages of time
Only preserved by the...

*** Awaiting Inspiration ***
(written for my brother and sister poets)

Reaching for dreams in the black of my closed eyes, but sleepless,
I go on in music, out past radiant lights — 
Bright and brighter — spreading...

Of all the best, there’s many at rest
What matters most, they stood their post
They are the brave, they did not waive
To those who serve, such honor they deserve

Charging from the front line, more troops followed...

Away from the areas of complete ad nauseam
As political cases grasp a zenith of their corium
To utterly saturate the airwaves with information
Each other's obnoxious and feeble description.

I'm fully aware, listening to the unrelenting billow
My musings...

I was declared enemy of the public
Who am I to argue with the public?
I didn’t kill anyone
I didn’t bomb anyone

All my life I was forced to be silent
But I came to respect someone silent
All my...

I once met a woman
Who is a rock of strength
She would break the wind
And go to any length 
With every single word 
She could cut you open
Even without a sword 
For her spirit was unbroken

The sunlight was falling between peaks of veil-like beams
I felt your presence surrounding me
As thunder clashes it's majesty unseen
Helpless I fell to my knees

Why can I only remember your strength 
Your deeds of valiance when...

I stood still on the top of the mountain
Gazing at the nature's colourful fountain
Wondering what's behind this amazing rainbow
I ventured curiously on to every high and low 

The Violet proudly presented the Valiance behind her...

Buddy was the youngest and bravest of soldiers,
he left Richmond Hill and his adolescent dreams;
on European battlefields he fought and earned
valor in Argonne and dominated the combat with gallantry:
he was the boldest one, pushing forward...

As this grotesque form...

At peace midnight he blew his whistle
Down the street he walks alone
Followed behind by his own shadow
He makes the dark aware not to be lone. 
There he steered by the chromatic moonlight
And fight against those...

Land of gold 
Glorious Pearl of the Orient 
There's a story untold 
About warriors of valiance 

They snatched victory 
From the hands that prey 
To conserve liberty 
And preserve autonomy 

The raiders of foray 
Armed...

A mother struggling through daily burdens
Raises her son to be studious and intelligent
Without any funds for his higher education
When strangers raise enough to pay his tuition.

When a boy in poverty becomes an orphan
And sorrow triumphs...

An angel 





Her angelic aura came as a prize
affectionate heart kindled my soul
succored a subtle mind mellow wise;

She would often set a noble goal 
for us to consummate and truly rise
Affectionate heart kindled my soul;

Helped us see beyond
Voyage through dream world
God gift to explore
Seen through the eyes of the river
Truth delivered
Fresh and clear
Our Lord love was found here
Through potter
Blessed our water
Through each stream
Painted me a dream
Colors of the sun
Radiates...
