early spring morning
between aeoniums
butterfly warms wings
Under the pale hills,
Enchanting and elusive,
Autumn's jewelled mists
Reminding me, once again,
All things are transitory.
-------------------------------------
Half-bathed in mauven...
How compelling the far hills.
Wistful; yet...lovely.
For always these opaque hills
Forever pulling on me.
-------------------------------------
Never forgetting;
And on sparkling, misty days,
Lifting on sunshine,
I will see your faint outlines
Etched against reflective cloud.
-------------------------------------
Bell bodies float lit
red globe lanterns trailing their
tentacle tassels
Fury for the masses
a static hum blares
through the digital ether
fingers swipe
left then right
hearts race
pixelated chaos
unfurling black flags fly!
An electric storm
of fury?
a parade of images blinding
a pixel
a pulse
a scream?
shadows of war loom large?
A darkness-play
on the walls of our minds!
Fragments of lives
broken and whole?
Spiraling through
glassy screams
each face a mask!
Fury for the masses?
Red hats dance n chat
dead eyes wide...
A wild dance of resistance
to reclaim all our hearts
From the void...only
Fury for the masses...
a Digital Haze!
Hillbilly VP JD Vance
Surely hails from bad circumstance
Though spruced up by Yale
He acts much too male
To hide the wee lance in his pants
Note: Many other misogynists share this issue (DT, EM, 19 year-old college drop out Rye Country Day School wimp "Big Balls", etc).
a lonely lark withstands
the heterogeneous dark..
a rapturous daisy shines like
an eclectic felicity ...
Truth is,
The soul's nuptial gown,
Masterfully embroidered,
By
Virtue and justice,
Under
The guidance of the divine!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL
Heaven's blessings fell upon earth which responded by offering thanksgivings:
The roses!

"Marissa agmal wahds fel denia." He said, embracing me.
"Shokran awi ya habibi ya mozza ya ostaz."
He held me closer in his heart ever since we reunited.

also an art theorist
He suggests painting from memory
of 'plein air' was uncomplimentary
