When you one day fathom a brother,
(raised by the same father and mother),
proudly display the hat
of parochial scat...
you'll wish your brother was another!

Fruitless Season
Fruit sweet and ripe, out for the picking:
not a single branch on the tree hangs bare--
but idle hands turn up empty,
nothing gathered to savor or share.
Unused baskets collecting cobwebs,
sit forgotten in the dusty shed;
the hammock strung in the shade of the tree
rocks gently in the breeze beneath my head.
I wake to the sickening smell of rot,
my precious fruit scattered on the ground--
I shoo the swarming bugs from their feasting,
but not one untouched piece can be found.
My stomach turns, consumed with regret ...
not a single branch on the tree hangs bare--

nothing gathered to savor or share.
Unused baskets collecting cobwebs,
sit forgotten in the dusty shed;
the hammock strung in the shade of the tree
rocks gently in the breeze beneath my head.
I wake to the sickening smell of rot,
my precious fruit scattered on the ground--
I shoo the swarming bugs from their feasting,
but not one untouched piece can be found.
My stomach turns, consumed with regret ...

question loneliness
i have
begun to
question
loneliness,
rearrange
my thoughts,
whether
light day
or dark
of night,
i come
up with
the same
problems,
because
there is
no one
here to
help me
understand.

Pre-Jul
Pre- Juul time
The trees on the avenida have fairy lights
wrapped around their trunk
in the evening when the avenida is full of
slow-moving cars, people wanting to go
home from their offices in the center
they drum their fingers on the steering
wheel and wait for the traffic light to go
green, they might think it is beautiful
it is but
What's lacking is pristine snow. it is
a scene from a Hollywood movie about
Christmas; luckily, I have not seen snow
in Cascais. I think about the electric
bill it was high last...

Unwanted: Dead or Alive (Part 2)
Speak your pride to fake your dignity
We are sons and daughters by way of mere bloodlines
But God was Father first
How do you measure up by comparison?
Boasting ego
Is there substance to your success
Give me the home makers guide to navigating survival
Show me the blueprints for how to heal the heart
Stay practical and go numb because emotions are anchors
Accepting a relative sense of unresolved dysfunction
Asking money for answers
If pennies buy thoughts how much more for a soul
As if currency is enough to purchase...
We are sons and daughters by way of mere bloodlines
But God was Father first
How do you measure up by comparison?
Boasting ego
Is there substance to your success
Give me the home makers guide to navigating survival

Stay practical and go numb because emotions are anchors
Accepting a relative sense of unresolved dysfunction
Asking money for answers
If pennies buy thoughts how much more for a soul

Woes of an Relationship
I heard all you said/ I hope you got all that off your chest/
I hope you got all the emotions out and you got nothing left/
I hope you feel good about yourself and you can lay your problems all to rest/
With the smoke and dust at your back I'm sure you have no regrets/
All this time you wanted a punching bag/
so you can strike on it to compensate for the pain that was caused from your
pass relationships, friends, mom or dad/
When you let loose there is no white flag/
I'm sure this is what you meant when you said I'm a man you have never...
I hope you got all the emotions out and you got nothing left/
I hope you feel good about yourself and you can lay your problems all to rest/
With the smoke and dust at your back I'm sure you have no regrets/
All this time you wanted a punching bag/
so you can strike on it to compensate for the pain that was caused from your
pass relationships, friends, mom or dad/
When you let loose there is no white flag/
I'm sure this is what you meant when you said I'm a man you have never...

I just can't believe
How the tulips
Looks so beautiful
Inside the vase
We have place
The tulips
Inside the vase
It was placed
In our dining room
Table
Also, we brought
The Spring inside
Our home
Yes people
The tulips
Are one of
My father’s creation
He had made it
With his holy hands
Also, we can’t believe
That my father
Made the tulips
So perfect
With
His holy hands
Yes we also know
That the tulips
It will last a few days
Then they will
Die eventually
I find it sad ...

Do what you say do
There will come a time in each of our lives, when you have to make a decision that will affect the very foundation of our life and lives. 🤔 That will change us in ways that you could never really imagine. 🙏 As it comes in your life as a blessing in disguise, for the elders say that no one is sent to you by chance or Accident. For sure we have to learn to walk away, from someone in order to be with someone who has the same. ENERGY and determination to see it from a different, perspective of our own eyes. To open our eyes and reopen the deepness of the truth of the heart....

Some people
Are a nature lover
And every single
Day they go for
A hiking
In the forest
Also it is much cooler
In the forest
Then in the sun
Also It was
Our master
That had made
The forest for us
There are also
People that goes
Camping over night
With their camping tent
Also they cook
There meals
Outside in the
Nature
They make a wood fire
Also they boil the water
To cook their food
Sometimes they will
Make some soup
For them to have
For dinner
After dinner
They will...

Neon epilogue
The clock’s teeth grind,
against your broken smile,
time's brittle spine,
hands tick-tock-tapping like the nervous cough of God.
The city hums a hymn of gasoline prayers,
each flickering streetlight a confession undone.
I saw a man in a window’s shattered grin,
his shadow whispered, "Can you save, but nobody here.”
The pavement drank his bloodshot dreams,
left his soul dangling from a rusted payphone cord,
Outside a shattered phonebooth.
And you
clutching your golden mirage,
your designer faith,
your...
against your broken smile,
time's brittle spine,
hands tick-tock-tapping like the nervous cough of God.
The city hums a hymn of gasoline prayers,
each flickering streetlight a confession undone.
I saw a man in a window’s shattered grin,
his shadow whispered, "Can you save, but nobody here.”
The pavement drank his bloodshot dreams,
left his soul dangling from a rusted payphone cord,

My friend
Every single day
Supporting you daily
That is not a lie
We are both good friends
And we have
The same believes
I can't hardly believe that
Also we treat each other with respect
We never once mistreat each other
Because that would be the wrong thing to do
And we don't deserve that
We need to work on our friendship
Because I want it to last a long time
We would be lost in the world
If we didn't had each other
My friend
Every single day
Supporting you daily
That is not a lie
We are both good friends
And we have
The same believes
I can't hardly believe that
Also we treat each other with respect
We never once mistreat each other
Because that would be the wrong thing to do
And we don't deserve that
We need to work on our friendship
