single segment red ribbon
round scented red velvet rose.
" Do love me for who I am,
lull my hush sorrow."

A gust of wind 
Came as Jaina’s husband 
Delivering of wind got pregnant
Indonesia has some more husbands 
Just wind wow one more segment...

segment of the sun
lemandarin, semi-black
‘midst toasty branches
floats flamingos, flaming pink
in lagoon’s brackish parquet


*hybrid between mandarin orange and lemon

Watch for the day, it has been sent,
More than a simple token lent.
No basic gift do you impart,
But a stolen segment of my heart. 
The package: plastic, paper ink,
The message forms our missing link....

The ice on my skin burns like the sun,
As the freezing steel makes another run.
Searing pain reminds me of why its done,
Medical precision assures the blood will run.
With this pain another news story is spun,
Followed by the segment of the one who used the gun....

A black-haired dirty thinker
your words invade my head;
where lust and thirst become me
and love will see me dead.

Your body build a sailing ship.
Your keel at my back.
Your nods upon the ocean-
my death from your attack.

A bum to form a segment.
A fruit as firm as day.
A touch to stun the surface.
A helm to clear the way....

On the ride to daliy chores,
As clouds their bellowing did
I thought of when I'd seen her last.
Then a streamer of the Sun
Caught me in the eyea, 
I thought of when last we spoke
While wondering with ardent sighs.

The worK progressed with steady speed
Till afternoon was bright,
A segment of a rainbow arched.
Her thoughts came with the night....

Night folded its temporary home
Each segment removed brought
Light through cracks, windows
Doors until my eyes caught

The light of day, saying get up
Time to rise begin chores
The bed is warm and the room cold
Don't want feet to touch floor

Sunlight's penetration awakes
Even the cold, it now knows
Time is short, soon to be warmed up
'Til night its tent unstows

A perfect segment, one curve, one line,
Fits to the side of the same that is mine.
You're half, not less, just half.

Love is nurture, it has to be learnt,
My Whole was given the time that you weren't.
I'm hers, she's mine...then you.

So why then do I feel this gold thread there?
When I'm not even sure blood is thicker than air.
Maybe it's the Grace at our centres....

We all want something better
From this life
Something much greater
Something to strive 
And thrive for

Something that proves 
We're better 
Than whats happening right now
Something that prone to positivity
To segment the bitter
With or without pristine integrity

Like the garden of Eden
But not like heaven
Like the tree of life
To leap and dive
In tranquility and destroy vanity...

Every Tuesday
the guys
in the big
white truck
pull up 
to take
our trash.

they are dirty
in need of a shave
and smell like
rotted fish.

yet those
trash guys
have lives
beyond the scum.
     mothers
     wives
     lovers
     friends


I watch the tiny
segment of their lives
peeking through my 
parlour window

     year in
     year out.
I see them,
come Tuesday. They
have no idea
that I exist

They only know my garbage....

Honey’s makeshift spit. Wouldn’t pay a dime for a harlot. No need to count up a tally when in hindsight it’s a waver.

‘’Use in discretion.’’ Wrap it up sugar. The man in the woods, is father goat in a forest.

Lore and udder are what keeps the bloodline going. Façade’s crumble, if mistaken…

No man should take off their shoe before dying. The ferryman has dusty feet.

Chickens run around for half a minute after getting their head hacked off. Humankind do it their entire life....

Relaxing near my pool, I heard
a whisper in my ear.
I felt the warmth of a crystal 
gleaming tear.
The wind whispered ever so
softly and breezily:

"It's perfectly acceptable,
Panagiota, to be fully thee!"

"To follow the crowd, is
totally, not your balance"

"State your truth, with panache
and elegance!"

Thus, I resigned from chasing
approval and popularity.
The true glory was for me, simply
being totally me..
In every segment of my poetry.

Breathing space of time and place. Wishing waiting wanting wantonly. And a fried ham. Jellied eels do not erode in a milky ju. And segment of an oiled asparagus is not very funny for a spoon who arrives in a headdress at a ballroom. To tell a time off is to deny a denounced pink and purple acolyte of a flower . Bud then. Bead then. Braking beaming bombing being bringing basins. Hahahaha and now a chat to a cloth. Hahahaha and a jumping scarf doing the can can dance. Xxxx beautification z...

reality views...
is digital here to stay...
the discrete segment...

with the analog...
the action...in a back seat... 
to be forgotten...

there's start and finish...
a seen perception of time...
measured periods...

hours...minutes...seconds...
mille and micro moments...
but...time can't stand still...

accident events...
where rescuers die helping...
may last days...hours...weeks...

so...which is correct...
digital or analog...
you perceive your truth

stan sand...

Gone back in time
Another segment of life
Got stuck,  so rewind
Was there a lesson
I forgot to learn
ignored it probably 
Feel like a mockery 
I'm still none the wiser
Stuck in limbo
Can't let things go
But can't progress
With what makes me feel less
The facade we show
The logic and truth
To big to digest
A seed of doubt
Washed Enthusiasm out
What if I get stuck on pause 
And don't find the meaning 
Or purpose or feeling 
Just something I ponder 
When I let my mind wander...
