dab and strain
casting hues behind silhouette tree tendrils
pinks slide effortlessly into ambered oranges
clouds splice and span
in whispered wisps
straggles of reddened blacks
Tetris shapes cut the horizon shadows
and night holds its note
in frozen hurt

We are not tales of folklore
You’ve defiled the legacy we’ve impression in your minds
Mirrors and daylight are nothing but harrowing lies
We do not glisten like gold
Fearing no magic, holy water, or scent of garlic
You cannot destroy are immortal bodies
We walk among you waiting to strike the lone sheep that straggles along
Craving the essence of the living
Living for the taste of crimson vital claret
Subduing the minds that waver
But never kill are prey
For violence is for savages and the revolting
Are desire is to quench one’s thirst

Looking out of windows, we see the tourists’ stare,
pods of wild balloons, jumping in the air
Ham rolls and pop and cakes galore, sushi pieces
eaten raw, meet the needs of travellers-sore,
missing home and friends next door
Then shopping in the holiday malls, umpteen beggars
follow well-heeled gals, they sell you something
you don’t need, made of shells, or river’s reed
And when the party’s all but done, and touring
guides have had their fun, this Napoleon’s army
beaten thin, straggles back the night to win
Vodkas, coke and watery beers, “will it rain?”
to add to fears; gypsy dance continues on,
romance created, free drinks gone
And then beneath the weary moon, the tourist
zest begins to swoon, heads are heavy, feet as
lead; so quick to heaven’s welcome bed

Insightful you are, then straggles,blind in earth.
Suffering like a worm under the bark of trees,
then like a snake bites the heart who's around you.
Cursing life then for 'a laugh from the sun', lives.
Lying in grave of misery,motionless, for a hundred years ,
then looking for a river that overflows to your pleasure.
Falling upright on the side of joy,
then drifts away moaning like obese frog .
Complaining from the sea then stands in the middle
between you and him.
I know you!
to me a deeper insights,
hear it! I wish it awakens you.

This twilight of all nights
Wants to hold her tight
In a grip of pain
That knows no rights!
In a virgin best
That will not let her have rest
As the heavens teemed star
Always flees so far!
As all the Lands abide
And all the peoples beside
In another portion of town
That straggles up and down!
She lingers on the pebble shore
Sends faints kisses to the sea
With wind whipping the hair of bliss
That’s sparkles with ecstasy!
Winged words on souls that pierce
Into height of loves rare universe
Birds on myrtle-bushes
With leaves in the reeds and rushes!
The love of the woods and waves
In the brink of the dewy caves
With silent I love you
In the morning dew!
