Nourishes soils,fills reservoirs -
Only abrades fences....

He’s paid with a coin that boils
for the seeds in his soils
… the thorns of his toils....

If the world were only a stone
    and not a mixture of soils,
Human beings would
     Have been stones themselves....

Bundled up package,
Awaiting soils minerals;
Beauty trapped in seeds.

WHEN WATERS
FILL HOLES
AND MAKE WATERY MESSES
THE SOILS BENEATH OUR FEET
CAUSES US TO
STAND BENEATH THE SKY
AND FIND OURSELVES WET...

The sun rises, the sun sets 
Seeds beneath the soils arise 
The dancing sun above them shine
The evening comes 
The black chicken crows 
The sun rises, the sun sets...

Unmarried clays they are
dreaming to pair with humus
to fertilize fragile red soils
destined to become poor dust
for the joy of fauna and flora
to enhance earth’s burdens...

A banjo picker elite I once used to be, 
Now my nose is the favorite choice of me
Don't always enjoy
The pickin' finger it soils
Let alone getting snots on my manly goatee...

I see drowning lights and slowing colours
encroached horizons and shifting soils

I feel voices my heart can't hear
As dreams despair and choices recline

You ask of me to try and cheer
a wallowing strive to crow
and bear...

Memories rest,
Flowerterrible, in beds of summer
Soils. Each petal a
Struggle of colour
Against grainy backbeats;
Come Autumn, the
Omnipotent spring goddess
Takes to crossing sidewalks.

REFRAIN
NAILS EASILY STRIKES ON SOFT WOODS,
WILL IT BE BETTER FOR SON OF SOILS.
NAIL BITES.
WOOD TREMBLES.
BIRDS FLY.
OPPONENTS FALSE TRY.
EASY FOR VICTORY.
WHERE NAIL STRIKES AND ENTERS EASILY.
IN VEIN.
OUR REFRAIN.

Gateways and passages take me to different soils.
Yes, my footprints lead me knocking at your door.
Please be my home just for the night.
Save me from my lone from endless goodbyes.
You’re the only one I need till the morning sun arise.

Missing


She ran away
Carried no bags, uttered no words
Just an invisible soul
Travelling in foreign soils
Where strangers met and left
Mornings came and gone
No missing person reported
Only a missing soul

You can’t look for what was already absent...

moon gleams the white teeth
flowers my lonely desolated heart jumps
reverberates with the rise

the bright luminary moon
timorous golden light forlorn
snake moves the caves empty

new soils fragrance of mud
rainy night intoxicated drunk poet
love sleeps on earth snoring...

We mine the soils with our wooden picks
cutting slower than any human eye can see
digging for ancient minerals in pockets of water
to send above through a vascular cambium highway
we won't rest again until dormancy or death

The rain brings life that covers the earth.
The rain drops are swallowed by the soils thirst.
It falls from the heavens and gives it birth.
Life is then risen from its touch.
Bring forth from the grave,with soiled wrap of cloth.
What once was dead,  waiting in its cocoon state
Until the rain falls again, its life is short....

The rain 
If comes too often
Makes people sad
Besides flood and flu
Inconveniences and economics hazards
I pity the rain because it's like
The sky is  crying
A lot of sorrow is ahead
The rain is busy washing away Deforested soils, human sins and Airborne virus 
Don't cry baby
You make me feel so sorry and helpless...

Roses fade with winter’s cold snap,
While the goldenrod will flourish
As does the lovely bishop’s cap,
Roses fade with winter’s cold snap,
Take their rest with a welcome nap
While garden soils will renourish,
Roses fade with winter’s cold snap
While the goldenrod will flourish.

Dark is the night
When fear grooms sight


Dark is the day
When gloom displays


Dark is the face
When dread fills trace


Dark is the gloom
When harsh drought rooms


Dark is the mood
When dirt soils good


Dark is the air
When evil tears


Dark is the time
When chaos mimes

Dissolving into my painted dreams 
ingenuity soils a blank page; 
Hope remains dormant calmly waiting  
smiles light a sky full of soulless stars; 

Bathing in illuminated streams
such reprieve in a silent message;
Imagination dominating 
ink transforms into timeless memoirs;

Racing mind is no longer pulsating,
serenity is finally yours....

Stones are carved 
Shaped into endless hills upon hills
The narrow pathways divide and
Wind like veins
Emptied of blood 

There are no trees
No life that springs from happy soils
Except memories clung desperately to loved ones
Else they are forgotten

Who are we but our memories?
Without them we are a nameless grave

We will all end here....

Fall
arcane drops
of burnt hawthorn,
refashion chestnut beauty
as enticing odes of jovial
amber plume fowls serenade 
maple leaves, as tunnel winds cease
timber soils of stillness in calm chaos.
Extend sunsets cool moonlight greetings 
I...fancy open candlelit windows alluring
subtle bliss embracing the core 
values revived endng
summer’s erotic

. . . I stoned the lord of death to death
     we lye, now, side by side

as

effigies of who we tried to be
among countless 
revolutions
among countless 
massacres

evaporating into mixtures
of all who passed 
that day, united

beyond soils of new shoots
I, a deserter
I, a warrior 
I, a beggar
I, a zealot

with the lamb
gathering stones . . .
