Peelings of oranges
Peelings of oranges lying on the floor, Forging a scent of a time that had passed long ago, Obliterated shards of memory started to ignite, Diving to the forest of crimson pale light, Crushing into nothingness and falling into oblivion in the depths of night, Your twisted knife lies in my heart, Two unforgiven frivolous fragments of freedom fall apart, Your pleading...

When you rest, your head between my shoulder and jaw My eyes forget every weight they ever carried or ever saw I'm just a man, but to me, you are the world without every flaw When your sweet oranges look up at me, I am forever in awe My sadness is eviscerated by each breath you will ever draw...

Orange Blossoms
On a tree Overcome by the scent of citrus Sitting on a branch plucking fruit With the rhythmic sound of grass below me The wind blowing the grass like waves Filling the air with musicality The blossoms Yellow and white With the possibility to be greater then buds Tightly closed but ready to open Offshoots of the bigger, stronger...

The taste of oranges
Was it just the juice of oranges? Was it childish innocence? Was it just a summer barefoot-song? Have I swallowed it amiss? My mouth remembers tasting it - remembers it was sweet. Where is the salty flow of tears? Did sorrow soak into the soil – or run, or roll, into a wider sea? A sighing breath escapes. Has every piece of me grown...

A day’s routine so easily holds me captive. I confess to mindless, museless departures, Brainless unpoetic habits so unreflective, That I cannot dwell in momentary textures. But January ripens oranges on my neighbor’s tree, Marking spring’s beginning in California. Midwestern groomed; such play awakens me. Fat, lush oranges tumble all over the area. Bold bright balls, they must be painted, Landing in my...

Oranges Frost in Florida once, I planted an orange tree among thousands of other orange trees in an orchard when in Florida. The coppice belongs to a friend of mine who invited me to plant the tree a day of wine and songs remembering the old day when we lived in the Algarve. I can pick out my orange tree among...

Oranges and Oil Ii
Orange and oil The old man smells odd like burnt wires Black & cryptic desires oranges and oil! Static erupts like infinite fire. Noise white grows in volume, even higher. oranges and oil... Oxygen runs onyx tubes lighter. The old man is a dying fighter... Orange and oil odd objects ornate resonate with our oblique imagery. Tangled on barbwire... oranges and oil smell like a burnt twisted...

The yin and the yang of my artistic self parades in the world of imagination, I know I need a bit of both, but I do have a favorite I like the glitz and the glamour of the sequined stars, The rhinestones of snow, and the pure whiteness of clouds They add the right flavor to the rest of...
