its fate is sad...it awaits

ruthlessly relentless reptile

sole inmate of denial
Serving time falsely promised
—paroled in cold exile

Feel the breeze, come out of exile.

The burden of the banished
Bubbly times we buried into eachother
The butterfly of my dreams
Though bleak times never seemed so bad

Only the dead
see an end
to war
Ashes to ashes
dust
keeping score
Only the living
revere
the dead
The past
in exile
—the future in dread

Blurred
as in a distant dream,
we recall that our sojourn
through life in this our world
is but a belated homecoming
after our faintly-remembered exile,
following our half-forgotten
pilgrimage.

O Visal Angel!
Unaware of you.
O Discharge Angel!
Ignorant who doesn't love you.
You come with roses,
You're the exile.
It is you who lead to Allah,
You're the longing.

'Degenerate ' Kirchner had no place to hide
closed his life in suicide
There in Switzerland ,in exile
it seemed his art *was unsuited to Nazi style

The locals’ boats all gathered round;
Napoleon was in The Sound
On board Bellerophon.
Two guardships kept the crowds at bay;
The Emperor was on his way
To exile, freedom gone.

Her cryptic change overnight,
Left her in a barren land,
Scorned, buffeted, disregarded
Contemplating death.

When head and heart walk up the aisle,
who then remains to stand trial,
through tempests wild, here upon earth,
since presence has taken rebirth
and ego banished to exile?

Canvas,
blank yet speaking
to me in my exile.
Dare I fill it with the colors
missing, always missing from the pattern
I've sewn like a cocoon around
me? No! I am afraid
to fill that blank
canvas

On the sinister horizon,
only this bottle
missive, message...
Uncertainty...
No ships pass,
no planes on this route...
Nobody in sight...
just sinister line
from the horizon...
Only this bottle to browse
my exile... !

The exile
No matter how far
To the other side of the moon
if you like
Sadness follows an exile.
Never at ease
Thinking of what is forsaken
Finding it impossible
To find the way back home.

Just moon light on a pillow
-Two bodies in hot
Trees us watching trough window
-Feel your fingers on spot..
I afraid to exile
Rushing get to the burst
-You freeze move with the smile
Want to wait for more growth

Scratch
but not sniff.
Such exile
undoubtedly
Tickles my fancy.
Until I gave
birth to insanity.
Without surrender
and freshness we
can only desert
familiarity.

Truth
a heavy burden
speaking loudest
from exile
The distance
and confinement
like a magnet
to iron
Imploding
within you
when ready
for travel
The weight
of
delivery
— the roar of the lion
