That assaulted the peace of the beasts.

Darkness spelt the names of diseases,

My Bicycle of Imagination

...My Bicycle of Imagination

The day and I are hand in hand, 
brimming with a zippety-whippity-do.
I sit atop my saddle, my bicycle, my hill;
the morning mist is ragged like candy floss
on barbed...

The Muezzin

...Before light’s encroaching
Beams, across wavelengths
Of glints, in between yawning
Protocols of waking,
The cocks strike a redundant
Note.
Choked by their own sensitive
Yodelling spree, muted ...

Thoughts of a Banana Farmer

...
Now I

want to be a banana 
plant, swinging in the wind,
free from the knots of debt.

The shards of dreams won’t wound
me again. Ever. I’ll never be hunted
by the loan sharks with serrated...

Folded in Ink and Stars

...A banner flutters in miniature pride,
stars frozen mid-waltz, stripes folding
like gentle waves—
a tiny chorus of red, white, blue.

I imagine the seam of that paper flag,
its edges serrated li...

Nightshift

...My breath is heavy from the clannish dusts
Inhaled at midnight when the clock strikes late
With the tone of severe darkness.
I hasten to the atmosphere of languor,
Capturing the scene of the rise...

Cash strapped despondent citizen banker

in unrelenting deep purple Depeche Mode crisis...

for a crusty and crabby old man,

Narcissist's Snips

...sharp, serrated scissor snips
jagged little feather clips
bold blue and gold fold to the floor

more & more wings strive to grow
torn & shorn, uneven flow
flap & flap, too trapped to fly

I made a promise to write sins

...Sometimes I wonder,
if I’m wasting my seconds
trying to prove love
lasts longer 
when you drown it with gin.

Her ghost circles back—
again, again—
the Poppy wears 
a saccharine, serrated gr...

Configured Silhuette Of Silence

...

“The silence fades with a soft embrace”
in the undulating landscape with swerving life stream.
The concert of murmur cascades with mesmeric melody 
in the rapture ripples of the whispe...

Emotional Shrapnel

...
We love to be victims.
We wear our damaged hearts on bloodied sleeves.
We cherish the buried shrapnel with serrated edges,
that lies deep within, in time-lapse lockets,

In glaciated snow,
Dread the warmth, the tr...

Epitome Of Perennial Charisma

The splendor of blossoming flower lies
in the petals of the unfurling buds,
as the shower of spring’s spectrum of colors
saturates the latticed wings of butterflies.
Their charm surrounds the...

Combined in love
Before the feast

From Celtic shores afar
With waters warmed
The ideal spar

For microbes'
Fertive final frenzy
The rising fee...
