Thunderbolts across the main!

A Night of '89

Weather wave, point where?
Heaven and Hell, this may stick!
Brick upon the bare.

Red the rampant real? Rind? Rhyme.

Midnight Mirror

How about the proof?
Setting fire to where and when?

“O wandering Wind, why do you sigh so soon?
My sunny days are not yet through.
Must you come with dry and falling leaves
To cool my fire, my joy, my golden hue?”

Autumn replies:...

Psyche, Pale

...Psyche, in the morning hours;
Belladonna flowers?
Dancing stars in silent showers?
Glimmers, glows, and glowers!

Ariadne, webs to weave?
Wisdom, will ye grieve?
What ought mortals to believe?...

Our Love is Like Curry

Sour and salty, then sweet and spicy
It lingers and savors slowly
Explodes a burst of umami 
Perhaps the lemongrass and lime
Gives aroma of our passing time

Banana husk, dad's stone chair
Mom's vegetable pots.

Corn, cassava, sweet and tamarind.

Where is my childhood place

dance amongst shadows~
swirling through forlorn forests,
