Amazing Grace
(Marooned in Maroon)
This is for those who may have been lost
Tossed in the tempest of a raging sea
Castaway in the loneliest of places
When at times no one heard their plea
May you find your way back home
With resolve for solution and redemption
Destiny can be a little cruel sometimes
But it too gives us a better perception
May the winds of fate carry you to shores
Where you will find your personal salvation
Attain the dreams and goals you deserve
And to push you forward with inspiration
May the passage...

[ NapoWriMo 2020 Collection ] Survival
Qinghai,Tibetan Plateau
Guliya Ice Cap, 12,979 BC
Foreward—Roof of the World
On margins of the plateau
repeated glaciations were abating;
a Pleistocene Epoch, surrendering
to the Holocene, sacrificed its own
venerable mass to swelling sea levels—
save bodies, containers
for microscopic parasites
dormant in permafrost soil
Homo sapien rule had evolved—
rooting all cornerstones of earth;
a near-extinct Denisovan hunting party
tracked yak across the mesa—
its high altitude buffeting lungs;
thoughts...

Applause From Prison
Through my window
The world screams
Hand claps ringing in ears m
Applause for lost freedom
Don’t they see how dictatorships start
Ignore at your peril
Civil liberties eroded
Minorities culled before eyes
Didn’t Jews go this way too
Smiling politicians still cause deaths
Chaos’s cold dagger
Stabs eternally deep
Piercing sorrowful innocence
Stealing days and night
New prisons called home
The world screams
Hand claps ringing in ears m
Applause for lost freedom
Don’t they see how dictatorships start
Ignore at your peril
Civil liberties eroded
Minorities culled before eyes
Didn’t Jews go this way too
Smiling politicians still cause deaths
Chaos’s cold dagger
Stabs eternally deep
Piercing sorrowful innocence
Stealing days and night
New prisons called home

White flag
How long will it take --
there’s an ache
where my chest is
and tears smudging glasses
A friendship tank
that can’t be filled
by anything but presence
voice
eyes
meeting
unfettered by screens
*
withering
fading
empty
I am sliding into that pit
it took years to claw out of
simply cast me down
to drown
in the wine of my tears
blissful
If the plague were to come
just calmly succumb
all colour has drained
relinquish
*
Yet I...

Reminiscence
bring me a fancy time machine
I want to go backwards!
dial up the bygone days
when the emerald grass
was cool and waxy
beneath my tanned bare feet,
where cicadas sang loudly,
their high-pitched death song
the perfect accompaniment
to long, hot afternoons
spent rubbing buttercups
under my still-smooth chin
and gulping ice cold water
from hot metal fountains
after waiting my turn,
sweating in the high sun
I want to go backwards!
dial up the bygone days
when the emerald grass
was cool and waxy
beneath my tanned bare feet,
where cicadas sang loudly,
their high-pitched death song
the perfect accompaniment
to long, hot afternoons
spent rubbing buttercups
under my still-smooth chin
and gulping ice cold water
from hot metal fountains
after waiting my turn,
sweating in the high sun
