I will conquer this mountain
even though I am broken
I will conquer this mountain
even though I feel pain
I will conquer this mountain
to prove I am worthy
I will conquer this mountain
till no one remains
even though I am broken
I will conquer this mountain
even though I feel pain
I will conquer this mountain
to prove I am worthy
I will conquer this mountain

Black Wall Street
Tulsa 1921
As I stare at the dangling sign
It reads Williams Dreamland Theater
Hanging on by a thread it’s about all that’s left
Dawn rises in Tulsa 1921 smoke and debris is all that’s stands
Downtown shoe shine boy gets accused of
Being lewd with a White Lady
Newspaper prints the story and a white crowd grows for hours
Black men assemble put on war uniforms
March down to the courthouse to save a Black man from lynching
Police say there is nothing to fear go home and chill out
...

You two-fold
You are the figure mantling a glow
from streetlight to streetlight
linking its circles, that shadow
a degree brighter
than the obsidian
arrow found by a boy who
might have been You, dirty
and jonesing
for the sky, to be the hottest
fire under a rocket
You are the one
that passes fireballs
through the barbed
obscenties, for a squirrel
with ragged ear
who will chitter obscenities
at the hawk lazing the sky
You the sky firing
its rain of rocks
You a progression of pietersite
I...

...Still, you have to go there - to the edge of the world.
There's something you can't do unless you get there.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
No hour will be without
That which is below.
Say it again
Especially now
Olla paremini
Informeeritud
T'estimo molt

Six feet under
Not a good start
Certainely not a good one.
Didn’t end well too.
But it’s fine
I loved the moments with you.
Even if they were not made with me,
She was here before me.
she’s pretty, smart and kind too
if one of dies, i hope it’s me
coz i dont wanna be here without you.
Maybe that’s my core.
Making my life about someone else.
Darling, still remember,
even if I’m six feet under,
I’d listen to you talk about your day.

Blissfully Relaxed,
Blissfully relaxed,
From materialistic delight, detached
I left my skin down to the carnal mortality
clothed my soul in transcendental eternity
Mountains and forests, skies and seasons
Shepherds and pastoral eclogues;, my glossary
If to flesh satisfaction called on
I am Naturally calibrated, not addicted
Each and every container is to be filled
With the appropriate fair value, not abused
And so, i feel
Heavenly untroubled,
Earthly fulfilled
Spiritually healed ...

Light In The Darkness
Where there is jealousy
There is often strife.
Whether you are fortunate or unfortunate
Someone will always long for what you have.
From the expensive crystal chandelier on your wall
To the only shirt you have on your back
Jealousy often leads to strife.
Therefore, you will find throughout the course of your life,
That everyone is both, an angel to some and a devil to others.
If you lather the earth with kindness
Someone will consider you an angel
While others, even with kindness, will consider you a devil.

a different view
The opposite view
Unipolar power is like being the bride
and resent the uppity of bridesmaids
she wanted her wedding to be remembered
no one can equal
Her democracy is the bride that has
become domineering and not let in
the bridesmaid
Not even getting married if she thought her
the rule was somewhat diminished
Her attitude causes friction; others wanted
to leave to go find their own happiness
This includes Miss Russia who was
a downtrodden maid, much patronized, made
the fun of and dismissed.
Surprised, we...

Tired of talking to a God
that is not a straight answer
it is more like talking
to a roof beam
excepting profundity
I walked down to a café
the one near the fruit market
had a coffee
a bica pingada
because I live in Portugal
The serving wench
asked if I wanted full cream
in my coffee
I momentarily paused
struck by a thought
Should I tell her I have
diabetes
if I did
would she care
she is not a doctor
I nodded yes
no need for verbal
communications

a somewhat fishy occurrence
"Consider the subtleness of the sea; how its most dreaded creatures glide under water, unapparent for the most part, and treacherously hidden beneath the loveliest tints of azure..... Consider all this; and then turn to this green, gentle, and most docile earth; consider them both, the sea and the land; and do you not find a strange analogy to something in yourself?"
― Herman Melville, Moby Dick
Cascading
the relentless
wave-lipped suck
of seawater,
seeking surprises ...

Gadani ~beach
Gadani beach
Gadani beach, the last call
she only needs skeletal crew
As I had not been to Pakistan
I volunteered to be skeletal
it was the beach in the name
I thought of seminude girls
How wrong can a man be
Gadani was a cemetery for
for ship, too old and too small
for maritime business
My home, for two years made
into nails and turned into
unspeakable parts
This is life, sailors and ships
have a short life span
