Makita Xxiii
Sharp and branded was the hunger
Thundering within my paunch
guised as the quintessence
spearheaded by life
‘twas the claw cast
from death’s marred teat
Heard within yonder valleys
Whence I sought freedom...

Grocery Poem Xxiii
stepping through the automatic doors
of a brand new grocery store
is a peek into another world

there’s no sandwich counter here, a tragedy—
but the frozen aisle in the center of the store

you have to  take the bad with the good....

The Man In the Moon
The man in the moon
Flies above us all
Helping couples fall in love
Creating so many stories
And lighting our way on a clear night
What would we ever do without him
The world and all of us could never be the same

Epistle Xxiii - Assyrian Choir
(I)
In the
waning luminescence
of Syriac Orthodoxy,
the Assyrian choir,
enmeshed in the
twirling maelstrom of
Aramaic incantations,
cast seismic waves
through the beleaguered
decay of
Damascan alleys

(II)
Their creed,
an unweathered monolith
mimicking the
early Church Fathers,
is the boulder
that continues
to blunt the
sanguineous scimitar of
the Caliphate's domination...

Sonnet Xxiii Persist
Be Strong and Courageous
Says the Grand-Master
The Harvest is Plenteous
The Fields are Wide
Your Possibilities Are Endless

Be Strong and Courageous
I know you’re so sure of yourself
I know your Dreams are so Real to you
Likewise, real is the Messenger of Misery

You don’t have to be Pessimist
But be ye optimist of him too
Late or sooner, it is the path of greatness
Be strong and Courageous
Only the Persistent Do Exploits.

Weak Spots Xxiii
The pretty cast of sorrow—
Hollow, yet comforting, 
When damasked on those lips, 
Or teased upon that fake smile

I see such sorrow inside of her
And weep inwardly,
For I love her gazes 
And hate her mazes

Paler now is the face
And love it more I must,
For the moment I express disgust,
She is gone like rain
Leaving guilt on trickling rooftops

Hollow company—
Is still company, 
And that is why I still love her—
Somehow her smile is real
