Each gesture lent
to conceal consent
if reveal intent
Look-back's lament
undetected signs went
swift fireflies senescent

"The moon’s crescent is prescient"
sigh I to my love
"presaging this lovely night's evanescence"
"Your eloquence is senescent"
she parodies

To ignite a life
within an empty fireplace
where the glow of the flame
reigns supreme,
reminds me
of a life time,
born and death
so, it seems.
For when the flame dies
and to rake through the ashes
sends a shiver down one’s
senescent spine,
knowing that one
similar day,
those embers
akin to mine.

Ode to a pillow
Oh pillow ! Your dexterity astounds me
You bolster the head of the destitute and the deep-pocketed
The hangman and the internee
The blooming and the senescent
The caretaker and the tsar
The analphabetic and the scholar
Yet none could serene sleep savor
Except those with a clear conscience ardor.

Rhyme
Lone regale of corpse plant rot.
Leaden legs on streets of dust.
Crevices of six feet ill.
Long nails hanker the earth’s crust.
Gray roses laid on tombstone.
Senescent-fade of best buds.
Repast to pay its tribute.
Petrichor release of studs.
In morrow brittle thorns stink.
Unmanicured foes dig deep.
Writhe of vermin circle box.
Quondam insomniac sleeps.
