Unknot Poems

In life

...Need there’s to smile nor cry in life,
What will, will by and by in life.

Bank to bank lifeboats ply in life,
Still, the same boats must die in life. 

One must swim, cannot fly in life
Whils...

chamomile clemency

is the window
to unknot the twigs of tainted trees,
where cuffed anklets
around the star-struck skin of
seraphic silhouettes
feel the suppressed sighs
of the ice-moon...

Sailing Towards Romblon

...Eagerly we wait,-
As early as the sun mount,-
At the harbor’s plank.

After a short while…

We heard the Ferry’s hail
And shouted us, to come up!-
With our kits and bags!

While on the ship...

Knots Knotted In Mind

...All life I wandered,
In search of vague meandered,
But when I pondered,
Said my long subdued heart’s voice:
Unknot all knots, mute all noise.

Allow Me the Time

...Allow me the time …
To stand and stare,
To ponder on the how and where,
To lose myself in thoughtfulness,
To unknot my mind’s tangled mess,
To consider and to meditate,
To transform into a Zen ...

Random Webs

...People do things without thought.
Every action and word are random.
The tangled web we try to unknot.
Leaves us crying, us not being able to unwound. 

Now we have filled ourselves with pure bor...

Unknot

...Carry the burdens
Too long
Not knowing when 
To give up

Especially there is nothing
Worth keeping
No reason to fight for it

Showering me 
Nothing but pain
Embedded in me
Driving my ange...

Father's Friday Feeling

...Competent parents cherish their children; 
This Friday feeling - free for family again.

All week, we're the authority, we're the grownups.
Adulthood ain’t easy with parent/child hiccups.

Stitched

...would you guide me?
be my golden thread, lead me through the labyrinth of my own mind,
help me travel through the deadly twists and turns,
would you protect me from the beasts inside?
i am empty,...

A Lost African Child

...A LOST AFRICAN CHILD

You lost African child,
Who will find you in the wood?
What is your name and whose
Name are you bearing, your mother's or father's?
Do you know where your home town is?

Hokey-Pokey Taoist Dance

...What goes up
must come down.
What goes out
must come in.
What goes before
must have also come behind.
What folds

When time is knotted
it must unknot.
When space explains radian...

Door of Solitude

...The Door of Solitude

It was the door I remember most it had been 
optimistic green once but now dripped of rots
only tears can produce. Like walking into a portal

Monofilamania

...It is so hard to let go of love,
lovingly.

It sharks, 
unpeels more gut more quickly
than reel or reeler ever lost
in all those years of lazy inches
in and out:
casting,
winding in and playing out,

I Thank You a Thousand Times

...I thank u a thousand 
times......
For breaking up!
Because I'm too simple for 
this complicated world...
A fool unable to unknot the 
web of relations...
A born-optimist always 
hoping for fr...

Love On Death Line

...I have not eaten today,
But my heart is filled

All around us are walking corpses
Corpses of political disregard
