I shall see
This color
In the eyes of dusk
Unveiling her lunar smile...

Friendship,
strong and sweet,
unassuming.
The faded mask she holds
is love.

be born
full of stars
bring this
young night
unveiling her
warm fresh eyes
craft this
quiet place
when you
look again
this night
be torn...

Serpents in Egypt engraved images for each being
Unveiling the lack of discursive reasoning in the heavens
Not manmade patterns to represent sounds and reasonings...

Seeing his shadow as a place to lie in 
The darkness of eternal obscurity and sin 
Not unveiling our bright star clothed in skin...

That thing
Which flaps it wings
Gliding over your vulnerable heart
You mistake as butterflies
 
The black hawk
Is revealed
In the midst of the kill
Unveiling its evil masked lies...

Time to pen the last poem of the week
   Six days of verse -- enough! It's rest I seek

Time for prayer and praise, and the magic of a peek
   At the Sabbath Queen, unveiling Heavenly mystique...

Unsheathing the bloody sword
Unearthing many sorrows
Gathering countless pains 
unveiling selected illusions
With roots and roots 
of wails and dreads 
devouring guilty minds

The Mask

Deep down
My heart (…)
Before
Unveiling
The mask.
I saw you
And nothing
Else if not
A rope and
Human
Stupidity
Still live in
Hope
One day
Life could 
Be other-
Wise.

My arms are bruised
From those boxes
Filled with color
And shapes unimaginable
I’ll cut you open
Unveiling what is hidden
Something I must put together
And fold
Who will take this away from my possession?...

I watch her legs
Unfurl  
Like a tulip awakening
In the morning sun

Her lips
Soft and moist
Call out to me
With the fragrance of love

Is there anything 
More exquisite 
Than watching
A blossom unfold...

How is it that prophets and psychics can lie,
When futures told show evidence of His Omniscience.
All we know is in future times, the truth is yet to come true,
And the only things we fill with lies, are our ties to the past....

Silhouette of a figure eight
Promenading through the door
Darkened by the chasing light
My eyes cast to the floor
To shun the near unveiling
Of her beauty I would adore
Pivoting on these thoughts
Til the stranger is no more...

Her lips touch me so gently
      Unveiling the passion of her tongue
      Near the spot that makes my nature rise
      Growing inch by inch
      Escalating our desires to another level
      Releasing our tension for a lifetime...

There lies a shadow
Of darkness and despair,
A disputable foe
Filled with lost prayer.

There lies a light
Of purity and hope,
The truth to what's right
In this poem of trope.

Can you tell of the two?
If so, which one are you?...

Matrika: progression
Malini: destruction
Both ending delusion

Unveiling, a slow tease
Awakening, release
When lower desires cease

So simple is the way
Let not attention sway
In stillness, as we pray

Your eyes are the screen
from the technicolor cinema,
where I watch and perform
 my role...
Your mouth calm lake
whence all mystery arises,
that enchanted unveiling,
in our wonderful series,
in our excitant 
 adventure thriller
idyllic... !...
