Premium Member Saturday, We Hid
We watched him die, He was nailed up high, Alive for hours, Before the sky turned black; Thunder rolled, Lightning flashed, It is finished, was the cry That came final from his lips; He died, we cried, we ran and hid; He was taken and laid in a tomb, Borrowed from a friend, Laid there,...

Premium Member Saturday With Frank O'Hara
Mid Autumn, Saturday 6.30am and daybreak is slowly climbing over the back fence. Frank O'Hara's poetry is still echoing in my head from reading it last night as I cook breakfast of bacon and eggs. Later I walk up the street to the chemist to get my blood pressure pills and as I walk, compile arguments against Postmodernism and recognise that the notion...

Saturday A sad rain teases the windows Spring worms wriggle gleefully Robins do a wing shake flash dance Wet squirrels shake their tails The cat paws at the litter box Dogs in tiny raincoats hide their faces The garden Buddha stoically drips I ponder the rings of my coffee cup Saturday ...

Premium Member Saturn on Saturday Night
This rink ranks right up there. My power skates, slice each ring, the scent of ice assails my nose. Funny in the absence of air, I breathe. It must be a dream. I don’t care. The wind of Saturn blows through my hair. No wind, you say, but I will believe what this dream gifts to me. Can’t believe I’ve made it this...

Premium Member thin fractures
Thoughts can be thin fractures in the order of things. Sometimes my dorm room seems a sterile sarcophagus, like an accusation, or an interrogation about my romantic choices, with nothing warm or inviting there. Sometimes I’ve just got to get out. Leong and I decided to go to ‘Toads Place’—a bar right across the street from campus. Still,...

Sitting under walnut trees Angels songs in the breeze Today I found a somber peace Unfortunately you left me Rainbow bridge welcomes you Dearly missed you are loved too Aesthetics of celebration of life Yearning to hold you saying goodbye...

Premium Member saturday afternoon
Reading another poetry anthology Looking at the words; thinking mirrors, Reflecting no image, capturing my spirit. Magician savants, transporting my feelings Across life’s terrain with eyes that feel The heartbeat of the stones, The breath of every tree, And the memory of every Poet That has ever lived. ...

Saturday Morning
I awoke to the sound of rustling leaves As the wind murmured its sweet nothings My window was a canvas of silhouetted trees And the liquid gold only sunlight brings The air in my room was warm and still It coated my throat like dense honey I breathed in deep ‘til my lungs were filled With a heaviness so heavenly If ever the...
