Premium Member Somewhere

Somewhere,
back in the last glow
of sunset,
is my home,
Hawaii.
While this plane
flies me rapidly
back to
Mordor.


Bluejay

all afternoon           
the blue jay calls
flies off and lands again
pushing his lifeless mate
through the dry grass

Premium Member Cats

curious little humans
attacking flies in mid air
tapping the air with tiny paws
sitting on windowsills
watching birds

Flies are attracted to you because you gleam so bright that even the sun is dazzled by your radiance

Color spectrum streaks the sky
Fire melts into the sea
Every shade of sunset flies 
And all that’s left is night and me

The Tree Branch Falling

The tree branch falling
As I looked out my window
I saw you walking
Farther and farther away
A swan flies over a field

The Jackfruit and the Flies

One day in summer
We were eating a jackfruit
Suddenly some flies
Smelling odor from somewhere
Came as the unwanted guests.

banished by sea
shrivelled by sun
decomposition waits
   kelp flies and beach hoppers
   find paradise in sand

What Is - Is

Truth needs no audience
or vows of acceptance
The eagle flies highest

I am no body
husk of maiden, shell of she
smiling Buddha cheeked
children crawl from crossed legs
poetry flies from my hands

Contrails

Her plane’s a poem 
that dissolves its words behind it 
	as it flies,
an ars poetica
that takes its chances on blue sky.

Untitled

Blow the smoke from mortal eyes
Let them see what truly lies
Beneath the dust of human gloom
Burning flame, firing flies.

and dragons without fire fly.

AGAIN, from
deep within
justice…..asks strange questions
A Hawk flies overhead
why am I 
spared?

Reaching the Stars

Insanely in love
How else can we reach the stars
High above our minds
Freed from the chains of logic
Our imagination flies

Premium Member Unrelated Things

A white piece of paper lies on a blue table
She looks at me out of the corner of her eye
A flock of birds flies into the air

Burning

A brightness burns inside him
She is a moth drawn to his flame
Ever towards his heat she flies
And what a perfect way to die

Premium Member Walking Through Autumn Winds

Leaf flies in the wind,
Seems like a bird's silhouette.
Coldness of autumn
Overtaking my body
As I walk down my own street.

The Word Is a Bird

Word is itself, a bird
    has a light and loose soul
   bird flies in the  poetic blue sky
  word in  the  heaven of poetry
