A January Sunday
It is forenoon with showers of rain
Houses try to huddle together for warmth
The trees on the avenue are still wrapped
In light that comes on when darkness falls
At five in the afternoon
Indoor heavy jumpers are worn too early to
Switch on the electric heating
We watch TV, drink coffee, wait for lunch
It is forenoon with showers of rain
Houses try to huddle together for warmth
The trees on the avenue are still wrapped
In light that comes on when darkness falls
At five in the afternoon
Indoor heavy jumpers are worn too early to
Switch on the electric heating
We watch TV, drink coffee, wait for lunch

the ghost
The Ghost
I tend to wake up at three in the morning
So, I woke up in acold bedroom we can’t afford
To keep any electric heaters on at night
I sensed I was not alone, the someone was watching me
I used to be fearful of this none person thought it was someone, perhaps a woman who I had loved and left, but since women had left me
Not the other way around, it must be something else
I decided it was my old dog Bami she was out
Of habit back to see if I was safe
I spoke softly to her called her darling thanked
Her for the thirteen years we...

On Authenticity
There’s a mistake I never even knew I made --
abandoned myself
years ago, afraid.
Believed I could submit, commit
to never showing
never growing
beyond that snug hole I dug.
Thought I was safe
in this satin-lined chest
six feet below my self I would rest
I even dared to call it
blessed
But the air is stale
I can’t inhale
the kool-aid went sour
and I feel my power punching
and clawing my own damn way out
ready to shout ...

Words Colony
Out of the blue in my words colony..
On cloud nine in my words colony..
The ball is in my court in a words colony..
As an orphan of words am offering
Not a thanksgiving
Words only written
Something all you tourist must either read, rhyme or reason
Touring in my castle
My name's not Mr. Bean
Am simply a Weevil
Just don't let me see you giggle
Feeding myself with words and chords with this huge ladle
At the same time riding on a bicycle
With a disjointed jaw or let me just say mandible
I bruised all my...

the 2025 cries
The 2025 cries
It is morning the first after the birth of the new year, the jubilation was tingled with sadness
Outside, the sun shines on our night pale faces
But we feel a certain tristeza, the sun shone
Last year to while we busied around doing this and that, only to see we had forgotten to buy butter, and we have to do the dishes piled up
Like a snow drift in the sink
Who will dress and walk to the grocer the little
Shop that never closes, I suggest to use olive oil on toast but is met with horrified silence

the wish
The wish
The face on the mirror scoffs at me
I’m an illusion and cannot die
Yet, I see him late at night, watching
“a house on the prairie.” crying
Sentimental fool
Wishes he was me on a bright day
When the mirror is in the shade
The face on the mirror scoffs at me
I’m an illusion and cannot die
Yet, I see him late at night, watching
“a house on the prairie.” crying
Sentimental fool
Wishes he was me on a bright day
When the mirror is in the shade

war on children
war on children
The ocean is calm and blue today
Barefoot among crushed building
The children play with a ball found
In the ruins
A rifle is shot, a ball is killed
Children seek shelter wherever
They can
The children are thin and hungry
Accept life as it is but need to play
The ocean is calm and blue today
Barefoot among crushed building
The children play with a ball found
In the ruins
A rifle is shot, a ball is killed
Children seek shelter wherever
They can
The children are thin and hungry
Accept life as it is but need to play

the glory
The glory of vanity
This Saturday started well
I did my exercise, two toasts and coffee
Going to a café for lunch, elegantly driving
There, this, for winter- mild day
As I entered a person rushed in front of me
Opened the door wide, I thanked him grandly
But I felt old, is this the way people see me
At home when not compared to someone youthful
I dance in the living room and feel
Glorious, but outside, my feet are reluctant to
Lift from the ground
I wish people would see me then and not the doddering old fool

day twenty six
day twenty-six
Today is the day after people are tired
And the toilets on the first floor of the building
Were blocked and had taken a heavy load
The silence is eerily; a man on the fifth floor
lets out air from his
Interior followed by giggling
What do I know, can have been his wife eating
too many prunes and sweet wine
The bin-men are on strike (are there bin-women)
The garbage is piling up in the basement
The mice have a jolly time today, unafraid of obese cats
kept by elderly women.
Tomorrow will be a busy day...

* Interjection me with unexpected feelings
* Conjunction me by joining our bodies.
* Preposition me with how our body parts relate.
Meet me at the Kissing Place and
we will use every part of speech.
OKAY...so start thinking...

failed mariage
Failed marriage
In my village in the Algarve, I met a retired
Captain in the US Army, he had a military walk
and tended to dress like he was on a safari
He had a house in Florida with crocodiles
on the lawn, he never said what he did when
in the army. perhaps the catering corps
on his travel to see Europe, he had in Portugal
met a plump middle-aged woman and decided
to stay for a while, and since few spoke English
I was his audience.
One can say it was a perfect match for her dream
was to go to America, she guarded him as...
