april songs: elements of life 2
april song 12—water
splashing, dashing restless river,
to the thirsting land a giver
of the wetness of salvific
heritage, and all the civic
liberties of struggling neighbours.
you have softened all their labours;
for although the crops are not yet,
they are not betrayed by hard sweat.
life you give, yet take you burdens,
bearing peasants o'er high hurdles;
fisher folk dwell on your mud banks,
as do citizens of high ranks.
do you ever feel like resting?
there's a haven quite interesting!
mark you...

april songs: elements of life 1
april song 11—air
it invades my lungs to live me,
and expires but to give me
breath control o’er living plants,
for my wastes fulfil their wants.
men oft full of it come pumping
tales of mountains they are jumping,
but the moment one confronts them,
they dissolve like flailing huntsmen.
hot air takes balloons to heaven,
cold air sinks, with moisture riven;
stagnant air the body sickens,
but fresh air the spirit quickens.
bach breathes air upon the g-string,
whose harmonics on the ear ring
for...

desecrated
(Note to readers: overnight, I seem to have developed a profound injury to my right hand, so I've had to write a poem that just uses the left hand letters. Apologies.)*
beasts at seeded grasses grazed,
at vert swards, barbed warfare crazed,
bravest, wettest crawdads fazed:
zebra, badgers, steeds bedazed.
reeded area: waders tweeted.
vexed debaters cede, reseated.
steadfast traders swayed, retreated;
carers, stewards, beasts - defeated.
afterwards...
ravaged streets were desecrated;
trees,...

On the heights
At one point only the birds were flying
and the winds came
took the wings
at one point my neck hurt
for following the flight of birds
then the birds got tired
and they glared in the eyes
from anyone who saw them fly
at a certain point the planes appeared
and cut off the wings of the birds
crossed the birds' routes
at that time only planes flew
because the birds
they didn’t have a license to fly
at those heights...

World of Filth
Humans are destroying mother earth
fertile lands toxic, decaying rebirth
air, land and sea are heavily polluted
deforestation, extinction, trees uprooted
corporations profit, not a care for our well being
asthma, emphysema, difficulties breathing
diseased animals, FDA approves to consume
aquatic life tainted, lead in our blood stream, awaiting doom
man made diseases, a global threat to our demise
extinction is certain, time to revolt, time to rise

There are no geese at Coastguards
There are no geese at Coastguards
It's not unheard of for the sea to abandon
everything by morning.
I go when the tide is low
have always wanted to see the full shape of land
undressed as an island.
While taking a loop,
only accessible when she's out there -
and I'm back in,
we become
somewhat restful.
I spot a barrel,
petrol blue,
larger than a jutting stone,
half full and languishing on one side -
goose barnacles attached to his ribs,
screaming for life, small heads
seeking, rising,...

Murphy’s Natural Law (or Mother Earth’s A Bitch)
sterile,
faultless blue sky,
limpid,
unmarred by a single cloud.
sweet wind
carries
taste of yellow, honeyed
flower pollen.
thundering, many-hued confusion.
tress, wheels, animals,
bill-boards,
colliding colors,
birds exuding
unheard tarantella.
music perceived, extravagant
colossal mechanical buffet.
single white cataract
nonsensically fluffy cloud
illuminated
by light blue rays of sunshine.
love,
some sought by everyone,
some,
sought by no one. ...

the old city
the old
city needs
to be
reincorporated,
the skeleton
needs
new flesh,
opened eyes
out of
curiosity,
her lover's
life
breathed back
into her,
a crowd
of people
wandering
inside
of her,
debating,
discussing
how they
can continue
to keep
her alive
from
now on.

The Outside World
Always under construction
Racing, smoking, buzzing
Always for a profit
Chopping, selling, consuming
Always thinking of the self
Yearning, criticizing, idolizing
The outside world seems so dirty and cruel
It is the cleanest mirror I have ever seen
Racing, smoking, buzzing

Chopping, selling, consuming
Always thinking of the self

Cataclysmic
When time and certainty have no meaning,
the planet stops rotating,
a catastrophic event.

Sycamore leaves
Whispers call the night's allure.
Stars above pure and sure.
Dreams take flight, hearts endure,
silent woods of paths obscure.
Gentle waves kiss the shore,
lost in time, myths of yore.
Sailors seek the ocean's core,
Legends live forevermore.
Mountains high in eagles soar,
Winds of fate softly roar.
Nature's gifts, an open door.
Life's design at its core.
Sunset's glow in colors pour,
evening's peace, who could ignore.
Shadows dance, light's encore,
night descends, moon's adore.
Fields...
Stars above pure and sure.
Dreams take flight, hearts endure,
silent woods of paths obscure.
Gentle waves kiss the shore,

Sailors seek the ocean's core,
Legends live forevermore.
Mountains high in eagles soar,
Winds of fate softly roar.
Nature's gifts, an open door.
Life's design at its core.
Sunset's glow in colors pour,

Pillowy
Is there a field
Somewhere
With soft grass
Beautiful dandelions
And nothing but the sounds of the wind
And the clouds moving
Softly
So much softness
Can I go?
