Refraction
In the ruin of 2020, life shattered – streets that once bustled, now phantom, ringing with the wail of sirens, the weight of loneliness pushing down, every breath a hint at what we lost. Masks hid not only faces, but the touch of an embrace, conversations now murmurs from afar, friendships frayed, intimacy drowned out in screen static. eyes aching with anticipation of the real. Days...

REFRACTION
REFRACTION When a meaning’s span has no breadth Or even being superficial with no depth Then any intrinsic value would be scarce Perhaps with origins on different worlds Yet even when they are barely glimpsed Or simply imagined and merely dreamt By thick mist and clouds one is engulfed Any claims of understanding can be false For clarity of perception, one is obliged As from...

The Refraction of Your Gaze The prism of your Rejection is held before me colors, breaking apart to pierce my heart with their meaning, entering, becoming: the Violet of Penitence though I seek not forgiveness the Blue of Piety and Sadness the one color true the Green of Faith and Envy my eternal hope and your selfish desire the Yellow of Jealousy and Fear which...

My being is a mirror of the cold. Flows through me, like wind and mold. Flakes that can fly, bite, and hold. The beauty of clear winter evenings unfolded. Snowfall is enhanced by the trees exposed.  When lakes freeze, the kids shift to rink mode. We omit each item from the scold. However, we do not know what winter will hold. This is...

Delineation By symbolisation As the uttered word Finds all hearts stirred By the power of vibration Coloured by their interpretation As of purity of their being In resonation feeling Marked by intent With will bent In surrender In wonder Co-creating By experiencing Stirrings in the heart Wherein cognition starts Anew at each given moment Heightened by stillness quotient 12-October-2020...

Soon nature will change color A refraction time Autumn has the highest price A goodbye to warm and bright days The air is fresh and the forest is quiet The migratory birds leave us and those who remain have to prepare for a new cold season Autumn shines in orange, red and gold When the sun sweeps low over the landscape it gives a...

I wanted this infatuation stone perched on the fringe of a great unknown wading into warm shallows called hope my eyes out of tune with the murky shoal. Reaching out with lusty intent bumping infatuation over the ledge wobbling down a trail of salty nonchalance following like a drunken, big footed clown leaving sunlight behind with each foolish stroke into a deep blue ball...

Refraction
Though Time has dwindled me to motes, My dust remains in sunset’s light— A pattern faintly forms and floats Discernible before your sight. Indefinite and vague, yet there, A wisp of what I was persists Split-second long upon bright air— Then vanishes in violet mist....
