Where Charon plies his grim trade
Ferrying the dead...

sunburst plies its charmer’s touch-

With booze he plies 
her; then lies as 
he sighs, "Love you."  

With lies he plies 
her; but flies when 
she sighs, "Love you."

the tears from grayish-blue

 take away daddies' {plies}
 "Just please one day"

The bee staggers,
There are no drawn daggers,
It had had its fill,
All is at its will,
It flutters its wings,
Its song, it sings,
Up it flies,
Another path it plies
There’s a mission to accomplish,
There’s beauty for us to relish.

You numb my eyes
From tippity-top
To eight count plies
Rhythmic grooves 
Crossing hard waxed floors
Bouncing orange orbs denied	
Double bass pounding, pounding
In my ears
Heart
Pride
Moving like soft water
Untethered sass
Yesterday’s child
Today a Dancer
Numbing eyes...

There are words
sermonizing unto others
yet silence can tell no lies

Outside some unknown soul taps
at the Window
The wind swirls
at a given time
Mother nature is perplexed


The corridor will led us to a cul de sac
where the silence 
plies its own truth
where shadows darken, 
merging with the night

*Of The Sea*

taunted torrent tamed
cremating callous crave
melting meagre sigh
hoisted horizon plies
fractured feelings fostered
moaning mystic metres

wielded waves yawned
puncturing pulpy pawn
merging masticated clown

lanky luck leers
vying voluptuous fear
felon fate peered

hoisted crunching creed's
of the sea.

Grey clouds cover the blue sky
The sun, the star, the moon
Are not seen well,
The sky reflects on the sea,
Fogs surround,
The ship is far of beach
Plies slowly, uncertainly
Destination is unknown;

The passengers are feared of
The plight, the long night
Crying misled! Misled!!
Sailors, crew, assistants ugly cry;

The wise are looking for any way
The fool are asleep all the way....

Autumn's call,
as leaves fall,
harkens cold winter's pall.

Autumn burns,
a leaf turns;
its rest it earns.

Autumn greets
old Winter's treats;
white snowfall in sheets.

Autumn sighs
at summer's demise,
heralds the geese's cries.

Autumn wakes;
arrival of snowflakes;
slushy mess it makes.

Autumn glowers,
awaiting snow's showers
and missing summer's flowers.

Autumn skies
are a prize,
as cold snow plies....

Immersed in doctrine from the very start 
I never stood a chance to realize 
that souls offtimes begin with works of art  
God's truth opaque instills, demystifies 
Sapient Mystics such as I can't comply 

lifted up to the sky those amber eyes 
of mine dilate, with questions giving rise 
a sequence of pure grace with love agape 
Buddhist velathums of sojournic plies    
my soulful essence finally, takes shape.

For Timothy Lee
I oft lose my composure watching you near
for love as a muse stays our passion infused.

My insides are deliciously alive
within delights your persona designs.

Deep love still flames your ardor to ignite
me in smolders scored by surrendered cries.

Your calloused hands always feel like alpha plies
of paradise your cravings ignite and 
I recall my first touch brought your raspy sigh,
“Your soft slow hand feels like flitting fireflies.”
