Without a word...

Doggone poet laureate
wannabe his index finger wags
nonverbally naysaying those,
who doubt mine posthumous
fame and fortune, which snags
eternal renown within pantheon
of storied writers such foolhardiness nags
yours truly keeps bad company with hags

The Trail I Travel
Some green; some grayish; some dark or brownish,
Grass-filled; grass-less; some portions clam clownish;
Ups-downs; zigzags; clumpy, ghastly, scary,
Beasts-like fringes clinging to dark aerie...
Herbs, shrubs, trees, climbers, creepers... in kinship,
Growing, like horses uncontrolled by whip;
Thorns, amidst wild...

Deafening Silence
Living in a realm where
the air seems to
be still as stone,
invisible, like a
ghost of a rose,
translucent and frozen in
time of ruthless seconds.
My heart still
keeps pacing to
hear the flickering...

Sunstroke
Eyelids heavy with memories
Cover lights and shadows of a hospital in ruins.
A baby with grown-up fingers
Reads the past in Braille
Barely touching the meaning of broken cobblestone streets of her past....

Sudden Storm
The acrid, metallic taste of the air,
Full of electricty, stirring my hair,
Was just a first sign of thunder storm brewing,
Urging me haste in what I was doing.
The day which had been so arid and bright
Was...

The Ballad of the Bachelor Beekeeper
The Mutaitho hill zigzags its way to the borderlines of the sky
And to the opposite poses the historic Muilu hill once a shrine;
Now there between slithers the Kimongo River where huge rocks lie;
It’s on the...

Still Bleeding
Sadness bleeds the weeping heart
beyond the clouded penitentiary
where tombstones sit in lighted valleys
and songbirds fall from the skies
Wallowing on gallow’d heels
past lavender of the once scented
Scraping the white picket fence
till flakes of life rest...

Our Blues
Jealousy
You make us slip into
suits of the children we once were-
with buttoned hearts
to our sleeves
Lips interlocked like
the sharp zigzags in closed zippers-
Skipping ropes of uncertainty and
playing hide and seek with our
buried...

Wonder
Birdsong serenade
Sun beams streaming;
Abrupt illumination
~~~~~~~~~
Food mall gallery
Tempting flavours;
Sensational buzz
~~~~~~~~~
Busy feet scatter
Muddy puddles;
Rain water gushing
~~~~~~~~~
Humid weather burns
Dehydrated faces;
Scotching heatwave
~~~~~~~~~
Severe flu bout
Head dizzy drowsy;
Coughing frustration
~~~~~~~~~
By this bench
Watch busy people;
Pursuing taut agendas
~~~~~~~~~
City fringe footpath
Workday buzz zigzags;
Toils and pursuits
~~~~~~~~~

Bubblewrapping Numbness
When tragedy strikes,
what happens to you?
Do you roll yourself up in
bubble wrap,
box yourself in
and pray that no one finds you?
or do you b-R-e-A-K
into a million pieces
and let others pick you up?
Reality feels like cork,
I push,...

I'M the Power Player

I sprint as I cry in pain
Coach yells, “ RUN, PASS, SCORE”

Blocking out all the screaming
And the chaotic noises

From the sidelines
I dash through five tough defenders
With everything that I have got

Out of breath I devour...

At a certain age when memory activity
Reminds me of a dream I never had
Absolutely nothing happens
That hasn't happened many times
I come again, but only to forget myself
More reliably than usual
And there's another me, just...

Aha Haiku
Morning drizzle
Drops of rainbow;
Colours dazzle

Weather contrast
Hot and dehydrating;
Sticky humidity

Lonely songbird
Dawn epiphany;
Lost lover's lament

New journal entry
Ring-bound folio;
Ink stain memory

Sleepy distractions
Lazy Saturday weather;
Bakery fragrance

Towering monolith
War memorial site;
Our glorious dead

Relics of war here
Public cenotaph;
Never ever forget

Feisty Hummingbirds
My favorite hummingbirds appear in early Spring
With fast fluttery wings and soft chirps, they sing
And rich emerald and ruby feathers so bright
Seeing them makes my heart skip with delight
Powerful tiny creatures seen in a flash

The Stillborn Love
Pain abates. A silent love zigzags
through his bullet wound. He is an
Indian mercenary fighting for the
Allies. He was born with a rusted
iron spoon in his mouth. Hunger
made him a soldier. He’s...

Sorrow
Thunder clapping winds at high speeds
Lightning zigzags across the sky
Bursting the water bubble
The rain pummels down
On my uncovered head
Soaking me but unable
To drown my sorrows
I stand like a deer
Caught in the headlights
Unable to move
Salty...
