Birds of variegated colors shine, where.streamlets gleam with opal sheen.

Blinks Through Bloodshot WalksWhen at five-thirty
In the rubbed-eye haziness
Of ferreting lonesome night walks
The camera-eye refugee
Asleep in the half wakefulness

Peers out of his high turbanned sockets:
Hyde Park's through road links
London's diurnally estranged couple -
The Arch and Gate.

The World Around UsAwaking blithe each morning,
with eyes upon the World,
I wonder, are we mourning
with ebon flags unfurled –
or are they but a warning,
some draped like snakes and curled,
stray stars and stripes adorning,
sent from the netherworld.
I wander through...

Diversity Is CrapI was browsing a comic book
in the store yesterday,
surprised to find superheroes
obsessed with being gay??

Of the banana tree,
With ripening fruits dangling precariously,
Wondering,
With eyes set on the earth,

This everlasting madness.

To what end?
A mystery it...
