Un jour, la nuit,
Un soir, très tard,
Je me suis perdu dans mon désespoir.
De mes idées noires, j'ai tiré mon savoir,
Et j'ai finis ce vers,
Sans jamais le boire....

Filling his verse with metaphor
Vers libre,not metre was the core,
He lit the fuse and walked away-
So little did his talent yield,for
He left his light on Flanders Field

"J'adore le genre de personne d'avoir

Vouloir glissent sur les nuages

Pour les nuages me guidera -

Les Montagnes et les vol qui

Beaux petits lapins
Sans chagrins
Bien nourries
Sans ennuies
Bien au chaud
Âmes si gros
Près à partagés
Tu n'a pas changé
Aussi courageuse
Ma belle serveuse
Savoir le bien être
Couvres vos têtes
L'amour de nos jours
Avait besoin de secours
Me prendre par la main
Vos douleurs vous faites fin...

(ohne jegliche vorbereitung)

für jede träne
müsste es irgendwo dort
ein lächeln geben

für jeden ruf
eine antwort
am ende jeden traumes
eine erfüllung
mit offenen armen zu warten
bereit die realität
zu umarmen

für jedes ich
soll dort irgendwo 
ein du existieren
nur meins

teenage bombshell

the future in your eyes
caught at crossroads

decisions
on a whimsy

your life
in the balance

winding paths
of outcomes

the price
eternity

Ekphrasis tribute to and inspired by imagist-F S Flint

 musical rhythm of vers libre
in a sequence of concepts 
&propositions
 recording impressions 
clothed in beauty.
instinct over thought
independent of form 
cadence lyrical expressed
where emotions 
   are the driving force
in
 harmonic flows
 of nuanced  length

Le passé 
Mon enfance 
Eileen deviating from my path 
Some eggs waiting in the sink 
I felt the cold eating my naked feet 
As I killed my last cigarette 
Ma mémoire s’envole 
Vers les horizons 
De mon enfance 
De ma mère 
La silhouette d’Eileen 
Surfaces again 
Takes over 
As I am watching the invasion 
Of the Blue sky 
From the uncovered part 
Of the window....

Listen to poem:

du coin de l’oeil
j’ai cru te voir ce matin
        ton visage tes yeux
        ton air ta démarche 
ça m’a coupé le souffle
 j’ai figé là 
croyant te voir tourner
les yeux vers moi
        j’aurais tant voulu
        courir vers toi
        te sauter entre les bras
j’aurais tant voulu que ce soit toi
