for even what seems Random
goes in patterns

glue every Illusion 
together...

Today I’m thankful for one of the truly beautiful paradoxes of life
Time…
and all she’s given to me…
and for her ability to be priceless…
at the same time…she is free.

Expanding with
perpetuity
of paradoxes
started from God or
a bang from a spark?

I come to grasp
we are on an
island in an
oasis of  

freewill and
spirited 
souls from seeds,

planted,
watered, 

grown....

If words appear

There can seem

An automatic

Separation and hiding

Of the dance in which

The words are engaged..

Polarities dancing

Are not two

Impossible paradoxes

And  a stunning

Emptiness......

The colour of red
Bright and flickering 
At one moment
Looks dangerous or bloody
At the other moment
Looks prosperous, enthusiastic or sincere
Different circumstances different interpretations
Like the world we are facing
Especially the political world
Always full of puzzles, paradoxes and mysteries
To be solved 
Throughout our lives...

When I open my mouth
Bats emerge
or worse, or better

What more can be said
How much more to know
To share, to oversimplify

Borders, places
That feel familiar, but not
My story


My language, my beliefs
But not my place

The stories that
Illustrate
Castigate
And just wander

In normal conversations
Ordinary paradoxes
Of those who are

Asking for help
Looking for
Dignity
Place
Something ordinary...

Falling so deeply into love's sunset
Sunburst of laughter never to upset
Enjoyment of loves tenderness is my advocate

Time approaches ever so fast, for loves last embrace
Burning desire only for lovers paradoxes
Taken so fast in your strong arms of grandeur

For each question is how long can lover's endure
Together we will glide through out each detour
Only to find their is no others touch so pure

I love adventure
I love puzzles
I love mystery
I love impossibilities 
I love miracles
I love Complexity
I love riddles
I love risks
I love wonders
I love paradoxes 
I love stories
I love art
I love you
You're my adventure
You're my puzzle
You're are my mystery
You're my impossibility 
You're my miracle
You're my complexity
You're my riddle
You're my risk
You're my wonder
You're my paradox
You're my story
You're my art
You're my love...

Funky Funkus For Fortunate Few
Real artists won't do alliteration
Modernist are we the folks
Seeking adoration
Post structuralism 
Is the old order
Annihilated are the Sonnets
And poetic formations.
Conversing  takes another dimension
Philosophising,  Looping, interlinking 
Elastic boundaries. Self-analysing.  
Sociolinguistic inventions 
Obeying but rejecting universal conventions.

Paradoxes reign in the world of poetic art
The art. The art. Why art thou so elusive?...
