Her Last Glance

Her last glance
Hastened 
My last supper.

Intense, 
Fascinating, and
Fascinated
By life and the agony of the harper.

As to sleep I was going
I chanced to glance out the window,
The Moon a week past Full
Was playing Peek-a-Boo with the clouds.

in a quiet room,
with the hand of li'l baby,
hoping for full recovery,
sunshine meets her glance,
after rainy day has gone.

With sometimes time well spent
But most are but a fleeting glance
And we wonder where they went

Why should I make love new
And toil over its expression
When just a glance from you 
Boasts not a syllable 
But speaks perfection?

A Prospect

Peachy at first glance
A keeper or a hustler
Only time will tell
Trust your instincts but beware
Should your prospect go astray

With His bare feet
He crossed those, the hot streets

He sees as he walks, so he dance

in the jeepney, then read his book.

The warmth of your touch 
Enlivens my pale spirit 
The charm of your glance 
Untangles my entwined thoughts 
Till serenity arrives

Odour De Scorned Woman

If you caught my glance
and bottled it for perfume
it would be called: "Cold
Bitter Lime and Lemon Rind
Absinth Alchohol Delight"...

Premium Member Double Take

It’s a giant bird
Second look, it’s a young girl
A thrilling third glance
It’s actually an angel
Three twisted in a statue

What a Sight

take a glance
at those pants
hanging down low
giving us a show

we laugh with delight
at the sight
while we stare
at your underwear

a crow flies by
our perfunctory glance
both stuporous and apathetic
refusing energy exchange

A Glance

It is much feasible that
         when you look at me
       unstudied, and from exterior...
     never perceive  real me from within...

Mystic Shore

Life is in
the nuance
When freedom
is entranced

A mystic shore
horizon pure
One captive
— magic glance
