Young as just a week,
He was wrapped in a flannel.
His tender feet were shoeless -

N.orth E.ast W.est S.outh


In the North the news brays
There’s no equality
And adds to the fray
Staged hostility

As discords of then mourn, assailing vibes of now, emotions torn;

Cruising for a bruising, I wreck my blue car.
It runs on regular with no gas gage, goes far.

She ran the yellow light at sixty. I went on green.
Her witness date, on same yellow light.

Things lost whose where and how seems history,
Much like hollow of a half hanging tooth,
Intangible, melted  as mystery,
Things that heart grieves— what once was vibrant youth,
Whose presence feel like black-hole-borne absence,
Old memories, meanderings of...

When I was just 6 years old
I assumed everyone was my friend

I faced the cruelty of younger children 
Just for standing up to what...

The star gazed at the moon
On the night of all nights 
Knowing it did not belong to him 
Yet she glowed in his light 

He paled in the sun’s presence 
But it bothered her not...
