Life Is Vanity

Hustling and bustling
Vain struggle for survival
Life is vanity.

The Lost Ones

Amidst their struggle still to gain,
Their tears have sunk for the suddenly slain. . .
Sprinkled drops of warm red rain.
The edge that stirs up a vast deep pain.
Though our fragile hearts break again,
They lie in our thoughts like a mild wild flame. . .
Even as they return the way they came,
Our minds were the graves they've always lain.

A Child's Liberty

A child’s liberty
Swift as a guiltless white hare
Sprinting in splendor.

Tiers of Government

The tiers of government
Compartmentalization
Corruption.

A perched vulture

The still starry nights
Hums the Cricket’s pleasing song
A painter’s painting

About French-Kissing Bottles

Wandering spring ants
by the edge of my lip-print,
solving queer riddles

Drunkards

Drunkards are we all
Mortality's sweet suckling
Inevitable.

What If

What if the trumpet
Lain on the arch-angel's lips
Is set to twitter

Serenity

Brotherhood of rocks
beneath slumbering pillars
chirping their mute song
