...He had an endearing, waggish way
Mischievous was my cousin Jay
Played tricks on me and my friend Kay
She is still smitten to this day...

30th of November

...This 30th of November, 
I can be dragged down by 
   men
that I loved. And they feel no guilty 
   I’m caged in maturity. 

A little girl tugs my fuchsia leg-split 
“Tear it or tear down”.

The Barefoot Village Woman

...On the other side of the village, there lived an old woman.
Every day, she walked barefoot on a country dusty road,
passing by our neighborhood.

In the summer, we played all day long in the dust...

...BULINGDON  BOYS


    Bogus ! Bullingdon boys !
    Engaged in chaotic noise,
    raising cheerful voice
          but not pretty sight.
          All are out at night.

...I have a pet, a smart little dachshund
Whenever I go out, he follows me always
Watching him wag his tail is fun
Mischievous he is, his antics amaze

Raven black is his shining skin,

Premium MemberFun At the Zoo

...Antisocial anacondas don't associate in numbers;
Bears and beavers don't become the best of friends.
Civet cats catch rats, so is it any wonder
On doleful dingoes dire dilemmas do descend?

Premium MemberThe Ecb

...I’m Face-Timing with my Grandmère, we touch-base once a week. I love that face, wrinkled, like wind-weathered driftwood, and she’s a wag. “Are you familiar with the ECB?” She asks.

I wince at this...

Waggish Ways

...Get barefoot and walk on grass
Skip too if you may; enjoy long laughs
            Catch a firefly and watch it glow                                  
Hold it for only a moment and let it go

He is like a raving Tsunami.

Enso

...I have some amazing collections!

The moon, dark lacunae etched all over,
Broke pearls strung on failed ideas,
Hideous rocks, amassed from my life's path,
A worn-out journal and it's mortifying ...

...Swaying turbulent ripples of musings 

Unfold my heart’s deep yearnings.

Numb inside with perturbed passions,

Flaring eyes digging clock and my ears

Lament for the whispers of your secrets...

Missed

...My friend has gone shopping for chicken stock.
I miss her so much.
The drapes are drawn
I have to see, cannot be closed in
I miss my outer side so much.

Outside, last winter’s trees are clutch...

on screen comic icon

Unreal acts turned art
verisimilitude
waggish movie journey
from ’Kid’ to ‘Tramp’.

Magic Shows

...Dad could roll a cigarette
with just two fingers
and the tip of his tongue.
I saw him do this once
in a wind storm.

Magically
he would shave just close enough
to keep his grizzled face
