The Comet And The Phoenix
Have you ever witnessed a comet?
Hurtling across an onyx sky?
Out-shining billions
of stars and galaxies
quilting the heavens,
knowing where she came from,
unsure of her terminus,
relentless in her trajectory.
Her luminous train fluidic
as a space-dust wedding dress;
Shedding encumbrances
imposed for an age,
the beauty of her tragedy,
hugged as the corona
of a fading sun.
During the precipice of her decent,
crashing through the ozone
of an alien world,
impacting its surface
with...

april songs: journey of life 4
april song 04—foetal
offspring of a fallen father,
well might every child aspire
not of broken genes to gather
harvests of unspoilt desire.
post-coital foetal pleasures
nurse the womb of every mom
whose gestation days are measures
of the days of femme et homme.
through the dark, unfolding ages
of the journeyings of man,
comes the Ransom for sin’s wages—
liberty for everyone!
thus the specimental blueprint
nurtured by umbilicus
comes to terms with awesome foot-sprint,

might i from fresh fountain-heads not drink?
a psalm of life for eerie
but what if i choke on my own words?
what if thoughts too bitter for my lips
should hover behind the palate and strangle me?
i'd best let the hush be golden—
an urn for unspoken eloquence.
but what is the hope of strangled birds,
when their wings the shining sword edge clips?
are there any dreams at evening, when misery
my countenance has beholden,
a forum for nubian eminence?
but what if i rise above these great, dark clouds:
might not i pull someone...

The Losing Game .
You go on as life isn’t a game where you have time out and to rationalise everything. I mean after a death of a close one you certainly don’t feel the sun or feel any fun. You’re wailing on the inside and quiet on the outside waiting with feelings that feel like a dose of gastroenteritis all liquidated and pouring out without an answer to how long you will be in cramping pain. No medications not even alcohol will not nip it in the bud it makes you feel worse you actually cry more, and you are in total uproar.
Please stop let me out for time out. I am on all fours. i don’t know...

Live While You Are Alive
Live with the vigor
Like death's breath shivers your neck.
Passion collects debt.

Transitions
Change is inevitable
It is one of the few things we are guaranteed in life
As times goes by and we grow old
So too must our minds
Accepting the rules of the universe
Transitions should not cause us despair
They can be foundations of inner strength
Teaching us to be flexible and adaptable
Giving us a more depth look into our existence
The human experience is filled with quick turns
It can go from joy to misfortune in an instant
Because in the ebb and flow of life
There are constant variations
And if we...

all in the moment
all the insufficient
yesterday's
the slights
the pain
the wounds
let it all be
let the sleeping
dog of the past
lie still
the past happened
it will always have happened
and it will never not have happened
no genies magic
lamp can change
that fact
the past is unalterable
like the chance of finding
one rotten apple in a
beautiful orchard
instead
focus on this single
moment
you ...

Casablanca City
Casablanca, the economic capital,
A city of grandeur and diversity,
Where modernity meets tradition,
A tapestry woven with remarkable landmarks.
Morocco Mall, Anfa Place, Tashfin Tower,
Twin Center standing tall and proud,
Symbols of progress and ambition,
Defining the city's skyline.
The largest road station and bustling Marina,
Connecting journeys, embracing the sea,
Guiding wanderers with a smile,
A warmth in the hearts of those who reside.
Africa's largest mosque stands with grace,
A beacon of faith and...

Bitter Tenderness
At a loss, I toss to dust
Even my skin abandoned these hollow bones
And I’ve crushed the skull, under
Vengeful feet
That since have lost all sensitivity
To the elements
To people
.. Myself
Look at me! I am a memory in a mind
Whose mind?
Tell me, did their lips release my essence
On a tongue of bitter tenderness?
Why can’t this soul be warmed, swaddled
Into an eternal daydream?
I really thought I meant something
Whose mind is in question?
It could be my own that haunts me
And as I reach my final cell
I...

The Ability to Accept
In the constant endless changes of life’s ebb and flow
Acceptance is an integral part of development and growth
Embracing the reality that unpredictability is certain
And so we should walk in accordance with the universe
Trying to resist change can be often fruitless and futile
To reach our destination we may need to alter the course
Or rather go with the flow in order to move in rhythm
Having synchronicity and agility to go along with the currents
If we set our sails and use the winds to our advantage
We must know that storms will be...

Celebrity Dream Sequence
Like a coniferous willow
the cedar loves to droop
because that's its peccadillo
like Paltrow with her Goop.
And she as well sports dangle limbs,
as a fine lady will,
enough to warrant Gwyneth hymns...
if she would pay the bill.
But her rare beauty I would praise
as much as any tree
if by some luck she might upraise
her torso kit for me.
And then proceed to throw it off
to give my hands a chance
to take advantage of that doff,...
