Virtues unforgiving ache
Cries ‘til love returns.

When Folly Is Wisdom
When man turns into bandit,
and thinks folly is wisdom,
to govern the republic,
he overthrows own government,
he bitterly desires to hang on.

On his tomb shall be scribbled;
“Here lies the dull man
who was bitter with himself,
hugged and kissed  adversary,
to occupy this palace.”...

Rapture
Let us embrace
the dark
with love and rapture.

With a passion
that overthrows life
a riot in our hearts.

Light a candle
we feel
the vibration
coming from the flame.

It burns it's way
into our psyche
clear as a crystal
we possess an eagles eye.

I lay bare before you
feeling content
loving you
in your nakedness...

Real Eternity
I'm addicted
to fantasy because
if i miss it 
I have neither peace
 nor poetry...
My health becomes unstable,
any shot
of shadow overthrows  me;
any stab of
cold cuts my
quietness...
I don't live without the
impossible ... because the real
hallucinates me!
I got used to dreams
not to live in the desert ...
I got used to the idea of
not being clay or
earth nor flesh ... since
 I dressed for eternity ...!...
