a lifelong gasp in bloom.

euphoric heart's desire-
'O herculean desire

i gladly gasp in bloom
my whole world
of these always and forever dreams—
how I gleam
to transcend and glow
with pounding chest;
a scented crest
tears undying, flow
as this true loves yearling,
My love, lavender ...

Chaotic Spring
I’ve felt for 2 decades
80 years of fears still scorch the page
Keystrokes striking the ground
A force that clocks my head
Like an asteroid
La sang est mon encre
La beauté est futile
Mais j’espère de mourrir,
Ne le dis pas aux parents
It’s only been an hour
One more frostbitten minute
Beneath the blossom tree
That keeps sucking the drought
A tear that’s holding on dear life
Holding in sweet saltwater
My hand still here stretched out...
One look at my shaking eyes,
Glass...

निंबोली: कडवा नीम
वो निम तो कड़वा ही था
फिर उससे जुड़ी यादें मिठी कैसी
नुक् निम तो कड़वा ही था
फिर...

Wickselm House

Just out of town
Thats where we found
Our garden of dreams
Then another one made three
Years past snowdrops everlast
Daffodils, apple trees and bees
June's sweetness
Roses and lots of other flowers
And the oaks
Burnt in late autumn
Some say it was haunted
Old stone walls and ivy
Post and rail
Winds that wail
In winter ...

The Beautician (NaPo #12/30)
(Before we start, just a little bit
Of gambit)
Glad you were able to make it tonight,
(Well, not like you had any choice, am I right?)
How's your family?
Good, good...did you hear about Gladys' melancholy?
It was all over the news, it was rather gory...
Her "friend" was once again telling her stupid bad beat story,
And she had already had enough, I mean, her long-time boyfriend had just left her for someone else,
This would be the least of her struggles,
And so she grabbed her by the hair,
Dragged her down a dark alleyway (in...

Like Climbing Vines Will Do
#1: “I love you as certain dark things
are meant to be loved, in secret,
between the shadow and the soul.”
What would it take for me in deepest woods
To find and bring you love that’s from my soul,
Without a something vulner’ble to give,
By making known the ‘allness’ you possess.
The creatures will then seek me in your lair,
Now I’m the one who hides within your arms.
The moon must find a chink to let in light,
Not even gods are priv’leged to come in.
And so it does remain...
are meant to be loved, in secret,
between the shadow and the soul.”

Dancing in the Trees
Laying in the grass
Looking at the sky
You turn to me and say:
"Go run and hide!"
I jump quickly to my feet
I begin to run
"One, two, three...
Ready or not, here I come"!
Your voice fades with the setting sun
Sprinting through the fields
My feet barely touching the ground
I dive into a patch of grass
Patiently waiting to be found
Your voice is getting nearer
"Emily..."
I try not to make a sound
I burst into laughter
Knowing I've been found
"I've got you!"
And for a moment, ...

flowers giant

((and the wind blows like the wind
and the wind blows thru the trees
and the wind blows the leaves away
and the wind blows time away
but not the doings of time

Granny's in heaven waiting for me,
the early morning sounds of birds chirping
lets me know the day has come along,
the beauty of the songs i hear in this room
erase away all the gloom,
i struggle to roll over on my back
as i look up in to the sky,
through this window by my bed
that i struggle to rest in ,
looking for that little angel
as she creeps through the room,
to stand by my side with a tear in her eyes
wondering why i haven't got out of bed,
and fixed her breakfast the way i always did
i watch her as she turns away to run,
