Parasitic vacuum of life

Slow Drip
Slow tears
Memories bleed
Reminiscing life's zest...
Absurdity of it... Opens
My chest

Senryu
Endless summer heat
In January when cars won’t start
I’ll dream of summer.
One by one
Rose petals fall like old dreams
Heartache is your name.
Whirling dust
On summer empty lane
Melancholy.

keep it short
Make it short
Soothing rain on slates
Heal nerves torn to tatters
Unforgiving is life.
Rain is decanting
A transparent carpet of silk
Untouchable beauty.
Rain chased by gusts
Mad dance around corners
A day fit for heroes.
Soothing rain on slates
Heal nerves torn to tatters
Unforgiving is life.
Rain is decanting
A transparent carpet of silk
Untouchable beauty.
Rain chased by gusts
Mad dance around corners
A day fit for heroes.

upon the wings of fortuitousness.
destined
are their two souls
found betwixt light and dark
so tender is this certainty
of fate
binded by vows of inked raw truths
sharing deep confessions
that grow these hearts
to one
are their two souls
found betwixt light and dark
so tender is this certainty
of fate
binded by vows of inked raw truths
sharing deep confessions
that grow these hearts
to one

Tomcat
Knows a tiger
That he admires afar
Loves to play some days in spite her
Sharp teeth

His queen
His tiger love
Enjoys his company
And now and then will lick his face
To taste
3
Old Tom
In sun and rain
Will watch her pace the cage
He’ll walk to her respectfully
And call
4
Green eyes
Focus on him
Her feline tabby friend
Who reciprocates his...
