a ray of sunshine on pain

Pigeons' alleys prowled
Broken glass and diapers
Sings the wise old owl...

Tempers
Our nature is a beautiful sight
Gives us so much pride
It takes us to Spain
Or keeps us straying in the deep alleys of pain!...

Fading
I sit within the ruins
Of a mind
Struggling
Lost in endlessly dark
Synaptic alleys
Reaching
For an unseen face
An unknown word
A fading

Cafe De La Paix
My fate to be a watcher…
“Regarder Les Autres”
and write from alleys dark but real,
salons for words ill-bred
(Le Grande Hotel Paris: May, 1978)...

One Day
to all those in need
those that frequent dark alleys
to all those in need
where the need of life questioned...
one day equilibrium.

Basks midst prism's colors, prelude to first light
discards unlit alleys, moon-less nights...

his sonnets' radiance, purest white...

Empty glass bottles
lying in back alleys
Where they drowned the emotions

that were shattered like glass.

Back Alleys
If some is good
more is better
Less is threatened
all enslaved
If more is reasoned
less is questioned
Good intentions

Why is everything is as it is?
Why not a black-n-white rainbow?
Why not a stairway to hell?
Why death, when living is worse?
Dark alleys in my heart lead to a dead end
I search on....

In Old London Town
In old London town,
I’d walk down foggy alleys
To take a photo.
Lawyer, prince, doctor - or what?
We’d see Jack the Ripper’s face.

gentle whispers of memories breeze by
teasing today's persistent travails
to rest, urging the now to flee
and into a cocooned closet to lie...
