First experience at Six Flags Great Adventure
In July this will mark the 40th anniversary of my 1st time at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson New Jersey.
Prior to Great Adventure, I had some experience with Amusement Parks. My parents and grandparents have taken me to Adventureland in Farmingdale Long Island since 1980. My first roller coaster experience was there in 1982. Accompanied by my father, I rode a coaster called the Galaxy. A simplistic, figure 8 coaster that hit speeds of 30 mph. At that time, I thought it was the greatest thing on Earth!

Coffee & Pancakes
I.
We reached that Dead End
the one that pointed and said:
You, Right
and. . .
You, Left.
Scared Us senseless
but we bagged ego
submitted despite what we wanted
Because Love
isn't always grasping for happiness
On the contrary;
it's often a self-sacrifice
for the one you love's benefit
Those who've truly Loved
understand this
II.
A timing belt of dynamics
churns for our experience
Infinite are intersecting...

turns out we’re the romantic comedy ..
for our thirty first we went to the pictures
but it was a really creepy film and
even though it had hugh grant in it was
nothing like notting hill

To Cartageña, With Eternal Love
To Cartageña, With Eternal Love
“Marlon, I sewed your pocket.
Why not fill it up with tips?”
“My ancestors fought
In the war of liberation from Spain.”
“What in the world does that have to do with you in the present?
At least you could tell the Americans
That we don’t have welfare in Columbia
And that tips are appreciated.”
“Our pantry is always well stocked.
There is no need to abase myself for pennies.”
“You are the best tour guide in this city.
You deserve a gratuity.”
“Most of them do anyway.
No need to...

In the Sorrow of Your Arms
In the Sorrow of Your Arms
Plans are made
To be broken,
And no charms
Can break
That spell.
Our destiny
May be a token
Of those
Dreams
We know so well.
There
In the sorrow
Of your arms
I still can
Hear them tell,
Every thing
We thought
We knew
In the end
Unwound,
And at last
Oh so so fast
Became....
The echo
Of our sound.

The Number 18
Number 18 is a number etched on the skin
a parchment of smiles through tears
a number, simple but never forgotten
written on the scabs of old wounds
18th of November a path to glory was hoed
furrowed flesh won't ever hurt as much
or whispered goodbye and signs in the cloud
of oncoming storm of soul in death's clutch
remembering the name in the echoes of time
torch burning bright like a bush aflame
18 evoke regrets and what could have been
thus memories albums are flipped through again
the 18th of February a long...
