When all who go

    for the lie that she told ...

Divine in the backlighting
She is more splendid

May Day is "Lei Day" in Waikiki
But this year girls are looking sneaky
They're all wearing masks
And carrying flasks
But their swank is still rather cheeky...

Cresce

O que você,
pensa cresce, 
tudo aquilo
que ocupa 
a sua mente, 
mais você recebe.

Essa “lei”
funciona 
e se pensar 
em fazer
cada vez faz
mais e mais....

To see Olympic rodeo

So Jill told Joe its time to go!

The frozen north has never appealed to me
Was born to live in the tropics near the sea
Eighty-six years of cold 
On a tropic isle I'm sold
Love wearing my pretty lei golly gee...

the moon tails off
remnants log off
And wings  cool off
On the cloud lei 

Sleepy cats botch
Sitting on crotch
Divine night watch
Ascent of dei

Checked my eyes out, left one's right, right one's wrong
Goin' to the eye doc to make sure... he wears a thong
A little unusual
Our strange stuff is mutual
Will show up wearing a lei and sarong...

Now he's danger
Anxiety kills his mind
His head is infested with worms
It's degenerating inside
Everytime he sees himself
in a mirror where his tears
shed like a blood
He knows his time is up
He's dying
Goodbye
End of his life.

Recompensa

A “lei 
das causas
e dos efeitos”
garante:
a fé
exige
que se acredite
naquilo 
que não se vê;
e a 
recompensa 
dessa fé 
é ver 
realizar
aquilo
que 
se acredita.

Tenha fé
que pode
fazer muito
com pouco
e vai fazer
mais e mais....

Maunakea comes
into view. Coastlines 
from right side windows.
Hilo, my hometown.
Soon we’ll be landing.

I feel the plane
stop and cargo
door with luggage
bumps hold, thumps ramp.

Passengers
and crew says
Aloha.

Flowered
crowned lei.

FRUITS!

arancione giallo e posi
rosso vine
abundance di fantastico

intreccio crescente lei

un vulcano
vizioso
metafisico
rivelazioni
il sonno e
un fuga...
